The Test
In The Test, Daniel decided to let GoodGollyItsHolly decide whether they should trust Jonas. Users have been posting messages on the boards and the forum telling her what they think about Jonas's offer.
The poll
GoodGollyItsHolly is a popular fan in the forums, known for her silly posts and quirky responses. She is a big Jonas fan,and her current location is in Jonas' bed. She has left several posts on the boards and the forums since she was picked by Daniel confirming that she was taking fans' input.
GoodGollyItsHolly created a poll in the forums. You can access it here.
When she announced that she had made a decision she said that it was not safe to say what it was yet. From her wording "Its the best option i think.. I cant say what it is because it would be too dangerous for everyone involved..." it's seemed likely that she will advise Bree and Daniel to trust Jonas. The poll results were also in favor of trusting Jonas.
On December 9th, the video Your Decision was posted. Bree, Daniel and Jonas all go to the meeting location provided by GoodGollyItsHolly. Daniel rescinds his approval of the test and decides that regardless what their Internet friends say, he does not want to go with Jonas. Bree insists on staying with Jonas, so she and Daniel go their separate ways. Fans were surprised at this plot twist, including GoodGollyItsHolly, who said she had not counted on Daniel changing his mind.
Real person or not?
Many fans have grown suspicious of GoodGollyItsHolly because her posts on the board since The Test are very short, generic, and never refer back to any specific fan's input, a la Bree and Daniel. She mostly says that "you all make very good points about this..." and encourages fans to vote in the forum and give reasons along with their vote, and never seemed excited or even surprised that she was "picked" by Daniel from a selection of so many fans. Her posts in the forum, however, are much more in character. Nevertheless, some fans have speculated that GoodGollyItsHolly is in fact a plant by The Order among board and forum users.
Fans have also noted the implausibility of trusting an allegedly arbitrary Internet friend with the crucial decision of whether to trust another Internet person that they've never met. Some accept the notion that GoodGollyItsHolly is almost certainly another construct of the creators.
This is the creators' second attempt to work fan interactivity into the series. Their first (somewhat botched) attempt was Bree's November 28 chat.
