** Sparkles* admitted that even though the music video for "Heaven-Piercing Giga Drill" probably cost them more than they made back, they wanted to really make an effort for it, hence the awesome visual effects.

** Asking what "[=#KillColin=]" was is a good way to be flayed alive by the fandom, since the incident resulted in Sparkles* quitting the fan group the first time.
** Trying to ask whether or not Sparkles* and Beckii are going out is quite understandably seen as disregarding their privacy and tends to result in an InternetBackdraft.

** Of all the songs to appear on ''Modern Synthesis'', "Red Queen" gets a lot of love.



* CriticalDissonance: The second album got generally positive reviews, but said reviews leaned towards the mixed side of things. Fans, however, absolutely love it.

* VocalMinority: While many fans do still like the Yogscast, a small but vocal group of Elevens are trying to start a FandomRivalry, to the point you'd think a large scale one exists.

* BrokenBase: The ''Blackline'' EP is a divisive point in the band's history. As their first EP it's the point in which many of their fans first came across the group, and many fans look favourably on it while disregarding the revised songs on ''All the Lights in the Sky''. Newer fans have stated that they prefer the newer versions of songs such as "Euphemia".

** The shift to a more Music/EnterShikari-feel for their second album has managed to cause a divide. Most of their fans like it and say they'll try it regardless, but a few consider it to be a shift away from their roots. Sparkles*' attempts at screaming also come across as {{Narm}} or NarmCharm depending on who you ask.



* MisattributedSong: The band did not make "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzeeV_Dl9gw MoonQuest: An Epic Journey]]". The mistake is fairly understandable, however, since Sparkles* ''did'' work on more or less the whole song singlehandedly. They also weren't involved with the Yogscast song "Carrot for a Cock" as a group; again, Sparkles* helped to mix and write it, plus provide backing vocals, so the confusion's understandable.

* FandomRivalry: A VocalMinority of Elevens do not like the Yogscast any more or have disliked them from the beginning.



** Their commentary videos for the start of the album show this was done because the band felt that the tracks originally on Blackline went on for too long, and also became rather difficult to play live to the point that they got edited down. This led to their being updated.
