HERE
Now it's time to see who is going home
5 members stand before me, but only 4 will continue on to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member.
The first member I call has been deemed best of the week and will have their name displayed in my signature until the next judging...
The best entry is...
1) SUPERPOWER
AVERAGE JUDGE RANK:
2.2 | TOTAL JUDGE SCORE:
39 + 5 points for popularity |
Overall a good thread. It provided disucssion and got people to learn about new music. You technically would have been placed runner-up for this cycle if it wasn't for your thread having the amount of replies it did. Still runner-up wouldn't have been that bad either.
Congratulations, you are still in the running to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member!
2) JAKEKILLS
AVERAGE JUDGE RANK:
2 | TOTAL JUDGE SCORE:
40 + 1 point for popularity |
Your thread was the favorite from us judges. If it wasn't for these popularity bonus points, you would have received your first first call out; and it kills me. In my eyes second place still isn't bad, but I, and the other judges, consider you and Super tied for first based on these points.
Congratulations, you are still in the running to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member!
3) A BOMB
AVERAGE JUDGE RANK:
2.8 | TOTAL JUDGE SCORE:
36 + 4 points for popularity |
Congratulations, you are still in the running to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member!
Will Era and Subomie please step forward.
I only have one name typed out in the Dark Grey font below and that person will be moving on to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member.
Era --- The biggest problem we had with your entry this week was that we felt it really wasn't original. It was kind of a thread we see a lot; what have been the most popular/remembered songs of the 2010's, but in a different question manner. It was okay and decent, but not really a thread we get excited for (not saying much because this round was kind of let down as a whole). Your entries and ideas are usually a lot better.
Subomie --- Just making yourself comfortable in the bottom now, aren't ya? That really isn't the best place to be. Your thread was basically in the same critique range as Era's; we felt it really wasn't that original. It was somewhat another thread that can churn the pot and get ATRL a little heated. I mean, it even happened with me and my comments and a few pages of discussion afterward. It just all seemed the same (still gotta say not saying much considering this round was kind of a let down as a whole). Your entries and ideas too are usually a lot better.
So who stays?
SUBOMIE!
4) SUBOMIE
AVERAGE JUDGE RANK:
3.6 | TOTAL JUDGE SCORE:
34.5 + 2 points for popularity |
Congratulations, you are still in the running to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member!
The reasons why you are advancing forward are because your thread, even though still not really original, seemed a bit more creative than Era's, and majority of the judges feel like you have more top member potential to move forward. Your attitude towards the game and your entries still seems to big a BIG subject, so I feel like that may be something to still strongly work on. Believe in yourself.

The reasons why you are not moving forward instead of Subomie are the fact of the originality of the thread and the graphics. Remember a few challenges back when I mentioned that I had mentioned to the judges I felt like you were hiding behind the graphics and they didn't agree with me; they saw it big time with this. It really did make them worry. A few feel like maybe you need to still enjoy ATRL and just gain more of what the forum can offer than try again. You do have all this potential, I mean you made it this far. Something I need to say is that judge Cupid REALLY was fighting for you to stay. Like he metaphorically had on boxing gloves, his mouth guard, and was ready to KO us out so that you would stay. This isn't saying we weren't all fans of yours, because we were big fans, we just felt differently than Cupid. Good luck
Keep an eye out for the next challenge TONIGHT!
Fierce and Love

At least this was your first time around, and like Matty said, you definitely have a lot of room to grow and come back. It is a bit stressful having to do the whole competition again, but you could definitely go all the way next time!
