Previously on Survivor: ATRL Edition... the 13 remaining castaways returned to their tribe camps to begin the last round of Survival before the Merge. Round 9 had the contestants representing a genre of music. As soon as scores were posted, it was evident Abantu was throwing the challenge. Therefore Tribe Jikelele came out on top for the third time while Tribe Abantu placed 2nd heading to Tribal Council for the third time as well. Fingers were pointed immediately as the plan to throw the challenge and eliminate Speezy or -brian was revealed. The only problem: Speezy and -brian had immunity. The camp turned to chaos in the most heated night of the competition so far proving more was going on behind the scenes any of us had thought. Coolcristobal once again was on the chopping block. However, NEZ LUNAR decided to quit the competition after deeming it too "messy" even though his plan caused the mess. He proceeded to come back, only to quit again placing 13th... 5 spots ahead of his previous season placing. 12 castaways remain. The Merge is finally here. What will happen this round on Survivor: ATRL Edition?
Welcome to Round 9 of Survivor: ATRL Edition (Season 3)! The Merge is finally here guys. Congratulations on being in the upper half of the game. Let's get started...
You guys entered the game in three tribes. Then merged into two. Now it's time to finally say goodbye to tribes forever. We bid farewell to Abantu & Jikelele for good right now.
 
coolcristobal, Speezy, -brian, Bey_RihStan, rl231, Starships, Lucky#17, Sebas, MiMiLamb, Zune, Element, & Starmie...
You guys are now playing an individual game. Alliances matter more than ever now. Hopefully you all are prepared for this time prior to it actually happening. There's no team to rely on anymore. You're in here alone or with an alliance. Although your alliance can't help you win this game.
With that said, let's get to your task.
The theme for Round 10 is...
Create an EP
This round we move into the Merge rounds which are more complex than your Pre-Merge rounds. Some of you who are used to high scores may not fare as well here. Some of you who never quite aced the other rounds may shine during these rounds since they're more open ended than the Pre-Merge rounds.
With that said, this round you will be creating an EP from some recent pop albums. The length of the EP depends on the number of tracks the album has. I will tell you how many tracks your EP is allowed to have based on what album you choose to do. Regular deluxe tracks are included. International ones are not. Basically I take the amount of tracks and split it into two. If splitting the tracks causes a half number to form, I round down. Your job is to narrow down the standout tracks from the album and make an EP from the album. You do not have to include the singles if you feel they are weak and not needed. We're pretty much pretending the EP was randomly released without any prior singles (like one of our albums actually was). The EP still needs to flow well. That means don't put awkward songs next to each other because you will be marked down.
Your entry will be comprised of:
1. Your album cover.
2. Your revised tracklist
3. An explanation where you will justify your tracklist. A paragraph. Not an essay.
I don't need it formatted like a it's an art project. Maybe center and bold a few things. The content is what matters.
So all and all, this round still isn't too much of a hassle. There are 12 albums below. Once again, it is first come first serve when it comes to choosing an album. Whoever comes in the thread last doesn't get a choice although if you're on a pop music forum, you should be familiar with all of these albums. Be smart with your album choice. Picking your favorite album out of the bunch may not be the best route to go since you're removing tracks. There's no need to copy and paste a list or anything. Just post what album you want and I'll add your name next to it.
The Albums:
           
1. Avril Lavigne - Avril Lavigne - 6 Tracks - Starships
2. Beyonce - Beyonce - 7 Tracks - rl231
3. Britney Spears - Britney Jean - 6 Tracks - coolcristobal
4. Christina Aguilera - Lotus - 8 Tracks - Element
5. Jennifer Lopez - Love? - 7 Tracks - Zune
6. Katy Perry - Prism - 8 Tracks - MiMiLamb
7. Ke$ha - Warrior - 8 Tracks - Lucky#17
8. Kelly Clarkson - All I Ever Wanted - 8 Tracks - Speezy
9. Lady GaGa - ARTPOP - 7 Tracks - Sebas
10. Miley Cyrus - Bangerz - 8 Tracks - Starmie
11. P!nk - The Truth About Love - 9 Tracks - -brian
12. Rihanna - Talk That Talk - 7 Tracks - Bey_RihStan
The deadline for this round is going to be about a day and a half from now. I feel like that's enough time because you're literally taking songs off and then typing up a paragraph. It's not too tedious.
