HERE & HERE
Now it's time to see who is going home!!
12 members stand before me, but only 11 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) ANNA / BORNTODIE
You have taken down the reign of Kitt! However, you are continuing the reign of woman! Your smiley, though as stated similar to
and
, was one of the best submissions. It can easily be used in many different scenarios. I'm proud of you for working hard and getting yourself back out of the bottom and to the top of the pack. Let's keep it consistent though, no more extreme ups and downs.

Congratulations, you are still in the running to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member!
2) ZAID / STARACADEMY1990
Originality paid off! Your smiley was something new and different, but basically a smiley version of an avatar. You've also improved from the bottom up to the top. Good work!

10) DANIEL / IMARUDEBOY
Your avatar, for me was okay. All the judges thought the same too placing you in the bottom half in all of our lists. It's a limited use smiley and sorta big to be one. Continue to work harder to improve.

Will MWB and Jeremy please step forward.
I only have one name typed out in the DarkOrchid font below and that person will be moving on to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member.
MWB --- Back in the bottom two after doing slightly better last challenge. Your smiley is cute, adorable, but like I said with Daniel, it's a bit big for a smiley. It is also very limited with the usage. Out of all the smilies out there, you chose that one.
Jeremy --- Basically the same critique as MWB. Your smiley is cute, kind of disturbing a little, but a bit big. Very AOL like. Pretty much the only good thing about your entry was your presentation. It distracted things from your smiley you chose.
So who stays?
11) JEREMY / DRIPDRIP
Congratulations, you are still in the running to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member!
Your presentation saved you, otherwise you might have been eliminated.

I'm sorry to say, but you are done in the competition. Your smiley was cute and followed your brand, but it simply was not the best. I wish you well throughout the forum and hope you try again another cycle.
Keep an eye out for Matty mail where it'll explain the next challenge!!!
Fierce and Love

Bye MWB 
*waits for my invitation to become the 10th judge on the panel*
mess. 
Don't worry, pika. The ones with the most negative peer votes tend to last till the end.
