Matt or Dimi
Added 2020-09-15 08:12:33 +0000 UTCThe finale of the Malenkee Saga will premiere on the 26th of September at 17:30 BST.
Before that, you have an important decision to make. Your choice will dramatically affect the outcome of the story. This poll will close on the 23rd of September 2020 at 12:00 BST.
Are you ready for the final chapter?
Following the completion of this story, and to celebrate Halloween, my new on-going series Die Society will begin on the 3rd of October. There is no Malenkee video this weekend (but there's an extra special video coming out instead) in preparation for the finale.

Just wanted to say thank you for saving everyone ๐ค

2020-09-25 11:07:21 +0000 UTCI donโt know what youโre planning to do with these beautiful results, but I think it says a lot about how we feel about your wonderful characters! No matter what I eagerly look forward to the finale of my favorite series! ๐
2020-09-23 19:01:00 +0000 UTCI know it would be a lot to do for you as a creator but since it IS 50/50 you could always just make both endings and make it into a "choose your own adventure" type of thing. #teamOR
2020-09-23 16:39:37 +0000 UTCAhhh...the Mighty OR....

2020-09-23 12:56:22 +0000 UTCI'm sorry Jim. But I love that it's a tie! You made such wonderful characters and we love them to pieces. I've been Team Matt from the start of the vote but the hopes of both our boys getting happy endings... ((Please?)) And we know this probably puts more work on you or irks you but we seriously appreciate it and all the work you do. ๐๐๐๐๐ค

2020-09-23 10:21:03 +0000 UTCI just checked this again and saw the 50/50 results! Omg! I voted Team Matt, but I also of course adore Dimi... I wonder what poor Jimโs going to do with these results ๐
2020-09-23 04:14:56 +0000 UTC^^; *wakes up ready to congratulate Team Matt on their win* o.o .... .... OoO!!! 'THE OR' WAS PRESERVED! OMG HAHAHAAA! YEEEESSSS!!! Youse guise!! ๐ โค๏ธ Jaysus, no matter what happens now, I love this place!
2020-09-23 03:19:17 +0000 UTCAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Someone vote Dimi!!

2020-09-22 21:17:38 +0000 UTCPlease please please guys for the sake of everyone's sanity just balance it out and leave it!! Please!! <3

2020-09-22 19:55:45 +0000 UTCOkkkkkk nobody else vote, pretty please? Team OR FTW! ๐ ๐ฅฐ
2020-09-22 19:43:42 +0000 UTC^^^^^ This energy for sure. โค๏ธ T_T Why split either babe in half? Give both their happy endings, and send one to some pleasant country while the other stays active in the story if that must be. Why should either one be dead or doomed? Please.

2020-09-21 21:19:51 +0000 UTCJim: I'm not saving both of these characters, you have to pick one literally everyone: no โค๏ธ
2020-09-21 20:35:05 +0000 UTCJust realized being a little too much involved in this saga when voting for the fate of fictional characters made me more nervous than signing up for my 20 years long mortgage
2020-09-21 16:57:36 +0000 UTCThis is such a hard decision!
2020-09-21 15:54:00 +0000 UTCIf we represent a sample of all Jimโs fans, even only those who care about Matt and Dimiโs fate, the difference in voting now actually does not have statistical significance, meaning both teams represent EXACTLY a half. The situation itself becomes so hilarious ๐
2020-09-21 13:02:23 +0000 UTCI'm Team Dimi, and at this point I was already feeling like, no matter *who* gets chosen, I won't know whether to cheer or cry-- :DDD BUT I'M TELLING YOU. If this thing goes 50/50?! I'm gonna laugh myself ded! Like, I won't be able to *get up off the floor* for an *hour* if this ties, omg!! ๐ ๐ ๐ The BEAUTY of it!!
2020-09-21 12:09:32 +0000 UTCI applaud everyone who's voting. This tie is poetic justice haha!
2020-09-21 11:49:12 +0000 UTCLet us choose our own ending!!! Please Jim, pretty please!! ๐๐๐
2020-09-21 09:57:14 +0000 UTCAhhhhhh ikr!! ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
2020-09-21 09:52:21 +0000 UTCThe fact that its tied right now is blowing my MIND!!
Etana Nwu
2020-09-21 08:53:43 +0000 UTCI considered, but. xDD I...I suspect that Jim might see that as 'cheating'. ^^; It is unfortunate, but I can't see an easy out anywhere. EDIT: _Unless_ having a 50/50 outcome would somehow also count as choosing 'The Or'? o.O; Is that. Would it. Did LaVey? I don't think he. ....DAMN!! ๐ I can't remember, it's been a minute. ^^; *goes back to watch the LaVey and Agent Saving videos* Edit edit: No no no wait wait wait, never mind. That can't be it. He said the story changes drastically depending on who wins the vote, didn't he. X_X
2020-09-21 08:42:31 +0000 UTCAm I the only one who's curious what Jim will do if the vote is tied?๐ค
2020-09-21 03:10:05 +0000 UTCThat being said, I'm fully on Team #SaveMatt!
2020-09-20 23:48:06 +0000 UTCWhat Gloria said, a choose your own ending for this would be ideal ๐
2020-09-20 23:47:32 +0000 UTC*Loonnnnnnnnnggg Siiigghhhh* ..... Jim, you're an extraordinary artist, and a beautiful person, and this story is INCREDIBLE, and I love it. But also, this having to choose between them is waaaacck!! They're both wonderful! ๐ That being said: #IStillWearHisJacket โ #SaveDimi Support your local burger joint. Also, support the guy who treats you like more than a monster. <3
2020-09-20 16:37:44 +0000 UTC#SaveMatt# please, Iโd like to ask for alternative (ie. multiple) endings like a video game so that all are happy๐๐ฅบ๐ฅบ
2020-09-20 13:50:48 +0000 UTCI want both ahhhh
2020-09-19 21:26:20 +0000 UTCRight?! This is so stressful!!
Babbzilla
2020-09-19 09:24:46 +0000 UTCDimi is finally with his family! SAVE MATT'S SOUL!! He is a slave to a demon! Sure he's a little cray, but it's not his fault!
Babbzilla
2020-09-19 09:24:02 +0000 UTCSending you love from Russia, comrade๐๐๐
2020-09-19 07:30:19 +0000 UTCPlease vote for Dimi! He's a kind soul! (I know it's fiction Yo)
2020-09-19 03:11:02 +0000 UTCThis is so tense and there's still 5 DAYS LEFT!!
2020-09-18 14:34:34 +0000 UTCOh my god! You guys! We need to save Matt!! This is killing me, like how Matt died so many times for us... This hurts, Jim. It's SOOOO close!! Can't we have our Bread Soup and eat it too?
Babbzilla
2020-09-18 09:06:42 +0000 UTCGood point... but... Iโm selfish I guess ๐
2020-09-18 03:56:39 +0000 UTCWhoa everyone. Why bring Dimi back? His family is dead. His soul is with them. You're going to take him away from them AGAIN?
Joanna L Perkins
2020-09-17 18:09:57 +0000 UTCAs much as I love Matt and his genuine sweetness, Iโve gotta say #TEAMDIMI all the way! I love the accent sooo much, and just find his โcharacterโ more alluring. ๐๐ฅฐ
2020-09-17 06:05:33 +0000 UTCDefinitely a tough decision to make. I had to choose Matt. I feel like it would have been right since he did end up giving us our immortal spirit and extra life that will eventually assist in defeating the last monster after all. Matt was not himself, his soul became something that took away almost everything from him, and he did die four times to save us. Hopefully now we can help him out!
2020-09-17 03:08:15 +0000 UTCThis is heartbreaking. I never cared for Matt much but did sympathize with his plight once the origin story was revealed. Dimi is one of my favorite fictional characters ever. But Dimi's family is gone and maybe he was reunited with them in some afterlife or at least found peace. Matt's soul is bound to the demon forever, he can never reunite with his family or find peace if we don't help him. For me, the logical choice is Matt but the emotional choice is Dimi. Can't you save them both Jim? I'll buy you a beer lol
Morleygirl
2020-09-16 18:00:27 +0000 UTCFor me, for so many reasons, it will always be Dimi- he has such a beautiful heart and freed from the chains of his past will go ahead with so much passion and power, as well as love. I hate choosing, ultimately, but if I must choose then I choose Dimi and his passionate Russian mystic soul. xx
2020-09-16 10:34:16 +0000 UTCI made my vote and my pledge, but I really wish your option wins. I want everyone to be ok ๐ญ I'm ok with dying in the process and taking Astaroth with us, but let others be ok...
2020-09-16 10:21:22 +0000 UTCMy reasoning, for what it's worth - Dimi has had a good life, and is currently living with so much regret. Why would one want to keep him alive to live in so much pain? Matt was snatched away from his family and didn't really live to enjoy life as yet. Why not give him another chance at happiness? In my very humble opinion, it's not about choosing one over the other, it's about being kind to both parties - ending Dimi's suffering, giving Matt another chance. Clearly I'm on team Matt...
2020-09-16 08:43:36 +0000 UTCMatt is the key, we need to save him, I vote Matt
2020-09-16 05:51:36 +0000 UTCIt is...make the right choice, Cassidy, and save a soul โค๏ธโค๏ธ (<โ see those are both your hearts)
2020-09-16 05:39:35 +0000 UTCMmmhmmm! ๐๐ป
2020-09-16 05:37:53 +0000 UTCI feel like this is one of the most important decisions I have had to make in my life, thus far. ๐คฃ๐ ๐
2020-09-16 04:29:33 +0000 UTCAnd so the moment has come....๐Though I loved Dimi, and would do nearly anything to hear his sweet spoken words of comfort again, the words of the Black Pope still haunt me. The beast knows what I want..and will surely trick me. Matt only accepted the beast to save his family...does that sacrifice not deserve a chance for redemption? I pray that Dimi is reunited with the family he lost, and will hold his memory in my heart always....*begins to suit up for battle* "Let this be the hour when we draw swords together. Fell deeds awake. Now for wrath, now for ruin, and the red dawn! " ...now let's go kick some daemon ass....we've got a soul to save....
2020-09-16 01:38:36 +0000 UTCCanโt you save them both Jim?? ๐
2020-09-16 00:48:13 +0000 UTCI had to pick Matt but I feel like I have betrayed Dimi
Lady Bugg
2020-09-16 00:13:55 +0000 UTCYou got to bring back sweet crazy cinnamon roll Matt back.
kwill
2020-09-15 22:54:15 +0000 UTCAs much as I love Dimi, I voted for Matt. I don't want Matt to have to be forever damned because of his mistakes. I'm grateful for the second chances I have received when I didn't deserve it, and I want Matt to have a second chance, too. โค๏ธ
2020-09-15 21:40:42 +0000 UTCI had to vote with who had my heart first. #SaveMatt
2020-09-15 19:43:38 +0000 UTCdimi time >:)
Finnegan
2020-09-15 18:33:53 +0000 UTCITS TOO HARD TO CHOOSE, But yes, Dimi! โค๏ธ
2020-09-15 17:48:48 +0000 UTCIt hasn't even been a day, and I have already checked the standings of this poll more than I care to admit ๐
AwN
2020-09-15 17:42:33 +0000 UTCMatt damned himself, Dimi was innocent, save Dimi!!!
2020-09-15 17:41:42 +0000 UTCThis is going to be harder than I thought. I want to choose Dimi, but my gamer brain is telling me that's the "Bad Ending".
2020-09-15 17:36:05 +0000 UTCThis is the most appropriate answer I've seen!
Nanci Ives
2020-09-15 16:28:18 +0000 UTCI donโt know how to choose because I love them both, but the phrasing of it makes it sound like Matt needs saving far more than Dimi does...
2020-09-15 15:17:40 +0000 UTCMatt gave us his heart....how do we not save his soul?
2020-09-15 15:09:43 +0000 UTCThis is an outcome I can accept. Give them both back to a timeline where they may live happily with their families. Let Malenky take Astaroth off into outer space and throw the damnable demon into the sun as her last act, complete with John-McClane-esque last-word-oneliner. :PP
2020-09-15 14:31:36 +0000 UTCYou came up with this interactive masterpiece, so I am sure you'll end it well either way. #TeamMatt (but love Dimi too!)
2020-09-15 14:16:46 +0000 UTCI would love to bring back Dimi but Matts soul deserves to be saved. Malenkee is his kid for gods sake! We canโt forget how caring and loving of a father he was. At least Dimi got to die as a human with his soul. Please save Matt!

2020-09-15 14:11:21 +0000 UTCI voted for Dimiโค๏ธ but however this turns out, this has been the most amazing and soul crushing series ever! Ha I canโt WAIT to find out what happens! Iโm sure it will be a RIDE!! โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ

2020-09-15 11:27:28 +0000 UTCI voted, but it hurt. ๐ญ
2020-09-15 11:11:05 +0000 UTCI literally just broke into a sweat because my Russian dad is trailing by 2%. ๐๐ช๐ฌ
AwN
2020-09-15 10:58:25 +0000 UTCThe moment Dimi died I thought 'but we can go back and bring him back, right?'. If he's not back I'll just smoke a cigarette to his name ๐ค
2020-09-15 10:17:58 +0000 UTCWhat does saving Matt's soul mean in this context? Is there Hell in the world of this story? If Matt is being tormented by Astaroth in some horrible inescapable dimension, whereas Dimi is ordinarily dead - in oblivion - then Matt needs rescue more. But if they're both suffering the same fate, it comes down to gratitude and preference. And I think Malenkee has more cause for love and gratitude towards Dimi (possible personal bias speaking). Whatever you decide, what an amazingly gripping work of art this is, Mr. Jim.
2020-09-15 10:16:12 +0000 UTCI love both so much!!! I cannot choose. (
2020-09-15 09:45:34 +0000 UTCRemember.... he gave you his heart so you could save his soul! #SaveMatt ๐
2020-09-15 09:33:12 +0000 UTCIt's such a tough choice, but I would love to save Dimi! Either way on how the story turns out, I know you'll knock it out of the park!
2020-09-15 09:12:46 +0000 UTCBring back Demi, Matt and Tibor and may they all live forever and ever and ever ๐
2020-09-15 09:10:12 +0000 UTCOh my God! Matt or Dimi?! Okay... I had to do some hard thinking real quick! And in the end I choose to save Matt's soul! I mean... Yeah he cut off my finger and I'm still a little bit mad about that. But! He gave us his heart... He saved us from mr. Tingles... And everything that he did, it's not all him. We need to save him like we saved Graves everyone!!
Babbzilla
2020-09-15 08:46:41 +0000 UTCDimi! I can't wait to see how the story twists and turns! Either way, it will be epic
2020-09-15 08:34:58 +0000 UTCMatt has had many lives already.... But Dimi is with his daughter now.... Oh man....This is horrible. Jim...you have a real mean streak in you dude!
