MY EXPERIENCE
It all started about three months ago. I was fresh out the boat and on a new island known as ATRL. When I was a guest, I would be perched in the games section. It was no surprise that I would be spending a majority of my time there. The first season of ATRL Battle was one of the first games a joined. It looked promising so I signed my name on the dotted line and vowed to give up part of my life my all. The first team challenges were fun. I participated and contributed immensely.
Just take a look at what I suggested for the very first challenge

Best Album
Her best album could be any of them, other than "I am...Sasha Fierce."
"Dangerously in Love," because of the smooth R&B/Soul feel that made us fall in love with Beyonce, and established her as a solo artist. What also makes this one of her best is, it is apart of the reminiscences of the early 2000's, when music was considered good. The songs on that album were smooth, and had you feel seductive in a way (i.e. Naughty Girl, Yes). The album is definitely a must for R&B/Soul people.
"B'Day" can definitely be considered her greatest album. In my opinion, this was her last album where THE WHOLE ALBUM was amazing. Scoring a 70 on Metacritic deserves attention. All of the songs on B'Day are worth listening to. It should say something, if Beyonce made videos for almost all of her songs off of B'Day (A ****ing 45 second video for Kitty Kat ). This album still holds on to the smooth R&B/Soul feel that her debut album has (i.e.Kitty Kat, Green Light, World Wide Woman), but offers something different to keep things nice and fresh (i.e. Freakum Dress, Upgrade U). Deja Vu deserves its own mentioning because it so catchy and different, and appeals both R&B/Soul lovers, Pop, and Hip-Hop lovers. The flow, the instrumental...everything is fire. Beyonce reached her peak with this album.
Unfortunately, "I am...Sasha Fierce" was a letdown. It was so bad. Yeah, her most iconic video came out of this, but that didn't make up for this travesty. Luckily this era is done .
Now onto "4." This is her strongest album vocally. The "old-school" vibe paid off, considering she went a totally different direction. Critics on Metascore seem to also agree, giving the album a 73, her highest scored album from them. Her best choreography also comes from this album. End of Time, Dance For You, and Run the World are examples of Beyonce's songs with the best choreography. This is Beyonce's most personal album. We are finally able to get better sense of who Beyonce really is! One last thing, the instrumental of each song is incredible. My favorite instrumentals being Schoolin' Life and Dance For You.
Best Song
I still can't decide . I'll just list and give opinions.
Crazy Love- Thee debut song. BAM! Here is Beyonce, and she will get you booty-popping.
Yes- It's really seductive and I love the feel of the song.
Me, Myself and I- The ultimate breakup/ cheating song. The feel os the song, the everything. You listen to this song when you are feeling lonely from a breakup. This is the song you see lonely girls posting the lyrics of on their Facebook and Instagram. This is pretty much Beyonce's original anthem, pre Run the World, for girls and gay men.
Deja Vu- (See B'Day review for my thoughts).
Best Performance
Yay I actually have one!
Her Billboard Awards performance. Hands down. The new visuals, the dancing, etc. I mean, doing a boss-ass performance after getting celebrities (and even the friggin' First Lady) to say how incredible she is. That showed how truly she is THEE Boss Bitch.
As the challenges came and went, so did the participation of the contestants. The season became dry because everyone just quit. The game was boring because the thread was dead and not everyone gave two f***s anymore. Hell, even Katie didn't participate anymore. Let's be real, you know what happened with the top eight- six of them were cut because they didn't submit. The only reason I was eliminated was because flop judge e347 voted me out. He saw me as tough competition. That should be enough as to why I should win. Hell, me even signing up for this season while participating in ANTM should say something
This season was different. There literally was no participation AT ALL. For the first three rounds, sure, but then nobody gave two f***s anymore. Nobody posted in the thread anymore and it was the same as the previous season. The first 2 challenges gave hope to this season with the challenges and the cast, but then it all fell apart. My experience this season has been more of a time crunch. Through my countless PMs, I informed you, Nasiir, that school was sucking the life out of me and that I wouldn't be able to submit pretty much every entry on time. Even with the amount of s**t that I (still) have to do, I pulled through, and s***ted on everyone's entries. I mean, take a look at the Ideal Celebrity challenge...
My personality brought flavor to the game. I had everyone kii'ing with my entries and my posts. Through the shade and laughs, I brought the ratings. Y'all know you all brake your heels when you see that I replied in the thread. My entries this season were more humorous.
I mean...

Official Lyrics:
Judges are judges are judges are a flop flop
Judges are judges are judges are a flop flop
They can't even can't even can't get their s**t right
Season 2 and there are all ready all ready dropouts
Nasiir, the head judge, unlike his fave, can only get one gig
Applications straight to the trash. Definition of a basic hoe
Can't do the dishes, take out the trash nor do the laundry
Cheap hoe, can't afford a prize, the only prize is claim to irrelevant fame
Just take a look at the judges, e-flop-7 and who?
Am I forgetting someone? If so, just like Mariah I don't know her
Judges are judges are judges are a flop flop
Judges are judges are judges are a flop flop
They can't even can't even can't get their s**t right
Season 2 and there are all ready all ready dropouts
They can’t even can’t even create their own banner
Had to use had to use contestants to do their petty s**t
Can’t even believe people are participating in this flop
To not even be eligible for boyonce’s most flop game
e437 who the f**k is that
Just like a flop like ha fave Kelly
Can’t. Even. Win a flop game
Flop.
Hard, hard
Just like your duration on ANTM you flop
Just give it up
Once Nicki was eliminated your fate was sealed
Like you had a chance, you’re just gonna fade in the background
Just like your avi you submitted
Sorry, you are not the winner, unlike your flop fave Krelly
Flopson, Flopson, Flopson, get used to that first half of that, flop
Judges are judges are judges are a flop flop
Judges are judges are judges are a flop flop
They can't even can't even can't get their s**t right
Season 2 and there are all ready all ready dropouts
Showing them more attention than their own mothers
Pushed to the side as if their names were Xtine
They can’t even can’t even create their own banner
Had to use had to use contestants to do their petty s**t
Can’t even believe people are participating in this flop
To not even be eligible for boyonce’s most flop game
Is it time for Irrelevant? Oops, I mean Timber
He better be glad he cute, cause that’s the only non-flop thing about him
We about to go in, in a way that y’all (aye) could (aye) neva (aye)
You won (aye)
A competition (aye)
Where people (aye)
Dropped like flies (aye)
You never (aye)
Finish s**t (aye)
You basic hoe (aye)
Gavin in the house
With his crew in the HOV lane murdering y’all flops
After this change your faces to be like Lil’ Kim’s to hide from this track's slayage
Judges are judges are judges are a flop flop
Judges are judges are judges are a flop flop
They can't even can't even can't get their s**t right
Season 2 and there are all ready all ready dropouts
They can’t even can’t even create their own banner
Had to use had to use contestants to do their s**t
Can’t even believe people are participating in this flop
To not even be eligible for boyonce’s most flop game
Availability:
After Beyonce's 5th album announcement.
I wrote all the lyrics. I did the everything. Literally everything for that challenge. Remember the GIF challenge? I took everyone's ideas, and made an incredible logo. During the process I discovered and learned new things in Photoshop. I actually ****ing learned something from this game.
After that challenge, I started to refine my entries. It was time to really step it up a level and show who's really boss. From everything that I've learned and gone through in ANTM, and incorporated it in my entries.
THE FUTURE
Should there be another season? Yes, there should, but not too soon. The problem is you started the season too soon after the finale. You need to give it some time before you start a new season. Let the views flow in and let the game become special. If you keep having the seasons 2-3 weeks apart, it's not special. You truly need to let this be like an actual season.
Any changes? Yes. The challenges need to be better. Part of the reason why people probably left is because the challenges were not good enough. Get creative and make people excited. But don't make them too hard like the lyrics challenge. That was asking for way too much. Again, you don't want to have people dread a challenge instead of being excited to work on it. Also, the deadlines were too tight. You need to give 3-4 days for challenges to be completed. That way, contestants won't be rushed to do something and dread the repeated process throughout the season. Add an incentive for winning the game. Throw in a prize. What's the prize? Bragging rights? That's not enough for a non well-established game. There needs to be more activity in the thread. So many times I have forgotten about challenges because the thread was so dead. I literally forgot about this whole competition sometimes. Same thing goes with the judges. The judges can't be M.I.A. all the time. If you're going to be a judge, you have to commit. Seriously, you agreed to be apart of a crucial part of a game, so perform your expected duties.
You, Nasiir, as a host?...
MIML's:
In the world of ATRL I am still a novice. Two months in and I still don't know all of ATRL. When I was invited to play this game though, by my friend and fellow and Barb Nasiir15 I agreed not knowing what I'd gotten myself into. I'm glad I decided to play though because it's been a blast. From designing of restaurants to creating a male pop star, ATRL Battle 2 has been a fun time. Sure I have been late on some assignments but that's the procrastinator in me, but hey I need an endearing quality. Honestly I deserve to win because this is the first game I've seen all the way through, the other game I was part of ( Supernatrual) I lost track of or was disqualified. In conclusion I deserve to win because I AM the Best ATRL newbie doing it doing it.
Thank you for your consideration.
Now let's announce the winner.......
The winner of the ATRL Battle 2 is..................
