Somewhat the oddball entry this week, but that's not necessarily the worst thing.
Congratulations, you are still in the running to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member!
Will iHype and Vespertine please step forward.
I only have one name typed out in the Hot Pink font below and that person will be moving on to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member.
iHype --- We were just talking after the last elimination how thus far you have been the only person to not have landed in the bottom two. Well, sometimes everyone has to have their time to shine here. You've had your UPS and this has become your down, which I'm going to do my That's So Raven prediction that your upset by this placement. "My thread was a big hit, it was bigger than everyone else". Us judges are not taking that away from you; it was the big hit thread out of everyone. However, we all felt it was one of the safer threads to get a hit. Having people score each other out of popularity, likability, etc. Just another scoring thread. Does this challenge and your overall work allow you to stay in this competition?
Vespertine --- I think you have tied with me with having the most bottom two appearances, yet not being eliminated. This is your fourth time here, but by each luck you are chosen to continue to move on. That means the judges see something in you that they want to keep seeing. Your entry this week didn't really show that. Out of all the threads, yours looked like it was the one that wasn't really a hit compared to the others. It was a simple and okay thread. Nothing more or nothing less. Was this entry the nail on the coffin to send you packing, or has your work overall this cycle spoke louder to have you remain in the competition as a finalist?
So who stays?
VESPERTINE!

I gave the judges different scenarios on who they would want to save if certain people were in the bottom two, and majority said you should move on instead of iHype. Honestly, I'm surprised, but I kind of see why. Through your ups and downs, you have maintained consistent with your style and overall work that you have shown to be just a tad bit stronger than iHype.
Congratulations, you are still in the running to becoming ATRL's Next Top Member!

I'm prepared for a jax-sized meltdown, and honestly I'm upset. When I saw who the bottom two were based on the points and rankings, and then who the judges said should continue if this bottom two happen; I was shocked. If it were up to me, you'd still be here. I'm comparing your run to that of Katarzyna (Cycle 10 of ANTM) and Dominique (All-Stars of ANTM). Each of those ladies landed in the bottom two for the first time the week they were eliminated. They were both strong contestants and fan favorites; even Dominique had two top call outs in All-Stars and was still eliminated over Angelea (I could go on and on about that BS). I wouldn't treat this as a defeat, yes this is going to cause some anger and you'll be upset, but this just the beginning. Like I told Element, this competition can be seen as helping to move forward your top member potential into becoming a top member. It is essentially opening the door to your own potential. And you sir, have a lot of potential! We've seen it. Good luck to you iHype
Stay tuned for the FINALE Challenge.
Fierce and Love

In my mind (at least the part that is not occupied by Louis or Gwen), iHype is already a top member.
