I think waiting too long for this challenge caused a major bump in the road... so I think I just may make the decision myself. I have Red's comments so I may just update with his and mine.
I'm also done with this challenge as well, it was fun when I thought of it and people were excited in the beginning but somehow it quickly went downhill from there

Sounds good. Especially if no one else is leaving with Toasty.

ATRL's Next TOP MEMBER Cycle 7 | EP5: Two judges comments!
ATRL's Next
topmember
Cycle 7
EPISODE 5: BUILD-A-CELEB PROFILE
Guest Judge: None
THE COMMENTS
TEAM 1: Ammer, Quiqui4eva, Vulps

I quite enjoyed this entry overall. I thought that using "Vogue" for the avatar and the sig was a little too obvious, but sometimes, obvious is the way to go. I was impressed by how Ammer immediately asserted himself as the leader and seemed to showcase strong leadership qualities. You also did a GREAT job of capturing her personality in her "posts". Quiqui, solid work on the avatar and sig. It definitely stands out together. Vulps, I enjoy the user title. One of the hardest things to come up with is a solid user title, if you ask me. The one thing that I thought was a little interesting is that both Ammer and Vulps took credit for the username. Which one actually came up with the username? Interesting.

The entry was really nice. I had no idea who Anna Wintour was before you made the profile and now I get a sense of who she is. Ammer you really took control of the group and became the leader, and once again your explanation of each part of the profile was well explained. I think you could have done less on the explanation and put more emphasis on the parts of the profile and have them speak for themselves. Quiqui, your avatar and signature captured her well with the explanation, but I feel like should could have easily been mistaken as a Madonna stan/fan if she was actually on ATRL with those. Vulps, the name and usertitle captured her well also with the explanation.

TEAM 2: TheGeoKing, givemethatpop, Toasty

While the overall effort wasn't too bad, especially because I feel that Khia would really post like that (and may post like that now :eli) on ATRL, there were problems. Obviously, GeoKing not particularly enjoying this challenge and handing in his avatar at the last moment is a big red flag, but I feel as if TOASTY, while TOASTY probably did put in the effort that he said he did, didn't really showcase that effort in his team comment. In fact, givemethatpop really shone through here, because it's clear that he did a lot of work both in the profile and in his team comment. While not a bad entry, it was probably the weakest of the three. And, of course, there's the whole matter of TOASTY quitting...

Toasty I know how much you like Khia so I would believe that post as well as the others. Pop, I wish in the end the other profile information were kept because it gave more personality but what you came up with was great as is. Something was a little off from your Jlo post though. Geo, it was a good avatar. I wish you would have put more of an effort into this challenge. All you have to do is fake it till you make it, I mean Toasty just quit cause he wasn’t having fun but he at least put more of an effort than you for the teams sake before he quit.

TEAM 3: DvnR, Evun, Owl

I loved this entry, I really did. I loved the touch of making his profile actually look like an ATRL profile and the touch of making his posts look like real ATRL-formatted posts. I didn't take Dr. Luke himself seriously, but, then again, that was likely the point. The posts themselves were also highly enjoyable, and I REALLY loved both the signature and his interests. One comment I will make, though, is that both Owl and DvnR didn't really put a lot of effort (or any effort) into the team comments. I was looking forward to the team comments from everyone, and some of you were very disappointing in that regard. Evun, on the other hand, described what your team did perfectly, so thank him for that.

Love, love, love this entry! I loved everything about it. My only critique, I said to not do a full blown profile and that is exactly what you ended up doing. Even though you did that, it still all made sense. Evun you took control of the group and became the leader and helped establish a great entry. I would have liked to see your touch in the entry besides the Avatar and the making of the profile, like a post maybe. DvnR your posts were hilarious, but do you honestly think Dr.Luke would type that much especially here at ATRL were a lot of members can’t read story book posts lol. Owl your about me was well done and the songs you put for his favorite songs had be dying. I wish you would have expressed more on why you wrote what you did.

Now it's time to figure out who is going home... in the next post

Team 1: I love it. Love it. Love it. Love it. It is different, unexpected and put together very well. I would hope she would join ATRL after seeing your entry. Ammer I love how you took leadership and dictated roles. Sometimes you need to step up and do what you have to on your own. Good job. Vulps I love the way you helped Qui Qui with the avi, teamwork at its best. I was hoping for more input in the entry from you though. And what was that Youtube video for? Some or your explanation got cut out so I really couldn't tell what the video was for. Qui Qui I like your choice of avi and the signature is really fitting for this woman.
Team 2: Nice entry. I like it. But I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed. Toasty it is sad to see you leave. You had so much personality.  TheGeoKing, I appreciate the honesty. Personally I disagree since this challenge was my favorite last cycle. But to each its own. I wish you would have contributed more. Your teammates don't seem too happy with you. Givemethatpop I like your input. Not much to say on you this week. But keep up the good work.
Team 3: I really enjoyed the posts. They are so great. His profile is nice too. Good job this week. I love it. I really love the work allocation within this group. If I could I would rank you all the same because I'm that pleased and impressed. But I can't. I will just have to make that decision. To everyone in this group great job. I love the humor, wittiness, and creativity.

Well, I think there's some confusion here. We were discussing a variety of different usernames and I suggested "Ms. Wintour" and Vulps agreed. So it was a collaborative effort, but the username at the end of the day falls under his responsibility.

shouldn't there be repercussions for not abiding by the rules...I mean I could've sworn there was an atrl confession about some posts being novels, and the Dr. Luke one is no exception.
Plus, since when is Dr. Luke a shady wig snatching queen? That's what I got from reading his "entries." If anything, shouldn't Dr. Luke's posts be as generic and monotonous as the beats he provides for his artists?
I think the Wintour entries are more realistic because I can actually see her saying that...same with what my team did
EDIT: EW THERE NOT THEIR...you'll have to excuse me my brain is fried from writing this paper

unfortunately i've been out of town visiting family (and not on atrl) since friday morning, so i missed ranking your entries. i am a bit disappointed to still see people quitting... it's not classy and says a lot about you as people... 
hosts of atrl games put A LOT of time and effort into creating and posting challenges, compiling entries and votes, etc. so when people drop out i find it disrespectful. however, i do understand that people have lives outside of atrl... so sometimes things just happen this way. my advice in the future: DO NOT SIGN UP FOR SOMETHING YOU CANNOT FOLLOW THROUGH ON. 
as for the entries, i'm not going to go into too much detail with my comments, but here's what i thought...
team 1:
Quote:
|
"We found that her personal brand of haute couture, sophistication, and of course classy yet subtle shade."
|
ammer, quiqui, and vulps...
incomplete sentences are NOT cute... but i LOVE that you chose anna wintour for this challenge. it was a very solid entry. my only gripe is that i don't think anna would stan so much for vogue that it'd be her sig AND avi... i'd like to think she'd rock a simple yet intimidating headshot of herself with her signature hair and sunglasses instead. ultimately, great work. i'm not going to comment on your individual comments because, in the end, regardless of anything that goes on individually, you were a team and shall be judged as such (by me).
team 2:
TheGeoKing, givemethatpop, Toasty...
you have succeeded in creating a clone of some of the nastiest members on this site... and i believe khia would be just that. i can't fault you too much for the entry because it was believable, but i think your choice was a bit lazy. it's not hard to pick a shady bitch and give her a typical shady bitch profile and attitude. this could have been a lot better. not my favorite, but a solid effort.
team 3:
DvnR, Evun, Owl...
everything was about "making hits." yeah... that's true, but it was a bit one-dimensional. the best profiles on ATRL really leave a lasting impression. i did enjoy your feux-posts, though they were a bit lengthy and i'm sure he'd be (1) banned instantly and (2) shaded for writing too many messy essays in which all he does is talk himself up and throw insults around... my absolute favorite part of your entry was the formatting. nice work there!
my favorite: TEAM 1!

Read his Twitter feed. His posts and About Me are consistent with the language and styling he uses.
There's no use in fighting over it now anyway.

They put in tons of effort into that Dr.Luke one, but that's not at all what he would type or act like. He's not a shady queen.
