I was really hoping somebody would make an xtra normal video, and it was certainly not disappointing  I didn't like that the background of the article was the other side of it, but then I realized it was supposed to be like a newspaper article and I think that was absolutely genius. The mugshots were perfect, every single one of them. Just spot on. Overall, great job guys! Really great entry. |

Upon initial reading this, I can tell this had an elaborate background about some particially contestants/ judges, in this case ethan, ririfan21 with some highlights about Kitt, DripDrip and me, (formerly) TheResonantZune. I think the theme goes very well with the idea of the game being about contestants earning money, yet for this game there hasn't really been a reason.
After hearing the video, I can tell now you really highlighted the members more so. Nice usage of Jason Aldean's "Dirt Road Anthem" tho.
Overall I would say this was a very colorful approach to the headlining story, it fit the theme of the show even, which would be more attention grabbing about other members whom might have stumble upon this thread. Great video and story!
PS. I can't at you guys exploiting the  and other backstories to risk being the top person in this challenge. That is a shady mess 
Pss. NOOOOO NICKIMINAJ is now Nicki Minaj + I really did get used to NICKIMINAJ. NICKIMINAJ 3/15/2013-6/30?/13 |

I really loved yours. It was funny and i loved the concept the most out of all the rest. I loved the pics that were included and the video basically was icing on the cake for me. I thought you two were a little bit of an odd pair, but it really worked out well in the end. Honestly, this one was my personal favorite although all of them were pretty well done. I don't know about the rest of the judges, but this was the winner for me. Oh, also the picture of them being escorted out was cute.

The story was creative. The pics/vid were great aid to the content and added a good sense of humour. The title grabbed my attention.
Didn't Like:
The layout of the story. It looked a little unorganized. I didn't know if I had to continue reading down to skip to the right. It wasn't very clear.
Overall:
Very well done with the content, presentation needed some work.

Perfect entry. Great presentation, intriguing story. My only problem is the drop shadow in the text. It made it very hard to read at times considering the amount of text there is. If I were to guess, Dick did the story and Melvin put together the presentation? The story scream 'Dick'  I love everything about this though, seriously. The story, the graphics, the xtranormal video, the mugshots  Speaking of, the video is ****ing hilarious. And wait, does Dick's xtranormal character have a british accent too? 
Good job guys.

First of all, I thought the title was clever; it spelled out ATRL, which I thought was obvious. Other judges didn't seem to get that, which  but anyway, I thought this entry was hella clever. I love that you found actual quotes to use and how you manipulated them to fit into the situation perfectly, I love the overall story and the connection to Rihanna/Chris (especially considering Kitt is Navy and Zaid is a Beater). Super, super impressive entry, which is nothing short of what I'd expect from you, and the fact that you did it by yourself is really impressive. |

So your article went to a story about the latest figure head of the Games Section Tournament figurehead Kitt.  I guess what I didn't get in the end was the title of either "Angry, Touchy, Losing It " or "The Promise that made Kitt forgive Zaid". While being well connected with celeberities, as many of the former ATRLERs played celebrities in real life essentially (Kitt playing Rihanna) it didn't have much creativity with the connections, enough to have a sort of imfamous "downfall" stated in the opening sentence. With the two titles difference and the change of attitude throughout what the story ment, Maybe I'm losing it too.  I did like your quotes tho, really reflecting on things members actually said in the I Love Money game as well for the "celebrities" you used.
PS. One issue I initially saw was the # of contestants that were mentioned. So I counted Zaid as the judge, and then counted Kitt as a contestant (which is a somewhat of a reach, but that's ok) but only saw Dick (i assume as Addicted), NICKIMINAJ, Adam Levine (as AdamAL4) and Josh Hartnett (as Josh_923). Assuming this I'm good, but without the explanations (as my current status probably prevented this and won't be reflected in my score i provide) I couldn't figure that out |

Yours was clever and the fact that you did it on your own is a little bit more impressive. Youre was my second favorite overall. Comparing Kitt & Zaid to Rihanna & Chris was funny. Like I said, it was just very clever. You even referred the album title to a Kitten/Cat hence Kitt's username. I like that you used her "shut up dick. i hate you" post. That one makes me roll. It was just a very cute and enjoyable read overall.

The story was entertaining to read. The magazine pic and the video made your entry more believable and actually sold it as an article. I LOVED the links to quotes/pics.
Didn't Like:
Nothing really, I just wasn't a big fan of the title. I wanted the article to relate more to the ILM mansion.
Overall:
Great effort, especially that you did it on your own! After reading the title, I didn't wanna continue reading, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I really really loved yours. It was short in comparison to the other entries, but nonetheless I was still very intrigued reading it. Although that's probably because it was all about me  I loved how you twisted real quotes into the story; I thought that was clever and hilarious. And of course how you paralleled me and Zaid's relationship with Chris and Rihanna's

It read more like a short story written by a middle schooler, but since it probably was, I can't do too much on the grammar. Yes at me being the hero  Overall, really entertaining read! It looks like you two didn't work well together, but the entry was very nice. |

I'm guessing this is the story that completes the game I Love Money with the Nightmare game on ATRL. Some initial issues I had first going into this article was it felt more like a story that I would be a fictional reading from a book within the library I type in at the moment. The idea of the challenge was in my eyes was a news article, and this felt like an inside tale one of the members from the game would have written down as part of their experience in the game. To explain better, the quote of the events that took place in the house dominated it being in a structure of a new article. I also felt the Title of the Article suited the story, but was not attention worthy for the article
On to the main content. After reading the story, the title made more sense, but it took some time to do so. I can say the story did make sense in the end of why one was killed, the deaths, the services, etc. I also liked your use of the actual quotes in this entry as well.

This one was just okay to me. I mean it was good, don't get me wrong. It's just the other ones stood out to me story wise. The story plot was a little iffy. I feel like going with something else would have been better. I was less interested in your guys' entry as I read than the others. I still enjoyed it but it was my least favorite overall. Sorry guys. I know you put alot into it. You guys did send last so you should have been the best in my opinion. You took longer than everyone if i recall. Something was a little off with this.

Didn't Like:
Pics didn't really do anything for me. The title didn't really make sense, Regina is not gay! The whole Kitt going to the hospital didn't really aid much with the story.
Overall:
It was a good effort, but at the same time I was slightly disappointed with the wasted potential from the storyline you guys had.

What kind of Scooby Doo detective story teas Okay well, the only thing I really didn't like about this is how it was narrated as a some story out of a book rather than a 'breaking news' article. I really just can't though. Yall went IN with the story, but it was just  Lord.

OK this was the cutest entry Simple set up, simple concept. That's all it needed. Firstly the Title is just so TMI, it can get some of the cleaner minds a bit dirty (i mean stabbed 69 times did someone get that Katy discount  ). It was creative in the smaller parts of the interview (some were inside jokes like the "interview I gave" with ). On a basis of getting others to read this article, I feel this would be the easiest for other to read and get the juice and have a good laugh. I mean sure it was simplified, but sometimes that's all it needs to be a great story. My favorite entry for sure. |

For me, there were two top notch entries. One was a B rate entry, The other was average. You guys were the B rate one. It was good and I liked it, but it could have had improvements story wise. Maybe if you added something a little different, it would have taken it to a new level. I did laugh at Kiddo's little section in the entry so good job there. Overall, this challenge really brought all of you to a new level and I'm happy with your entry and the others.

Now it's time for your averages. This round, the judges ranked the entries (1-4), so a lower average is better because it means your scored higher on the judges list.
In last place is...
4. Stevie & ririfan
with an average of 3.8
You were voted 3rd place by one judges and 4th place by four judges.
3. Su-Barbie-A & AdamAL4
with an average of 2.4
You were voted 1st place by two judges, 3rd place by two judges,
and 4th place by one judge.
Finally...
2. pika
with an average of 2
You were voted 1st place by one judge, 2nd place by three judges,
and 3rd place by one judge.
1. Addicted & Nicki Minaj
with an average of 1.8
You were voted 1st place by two judges, 2nd place by two judges,
and 3rd place by one judge.
That means, based on the judges rankings, the Paymasters of this round will be Addicted & Nicki Minaj! You two must decide which of the bottom four (Stevie, ririfan, Su-Barbie-A, and AdamAL4) will be going home. However, to make it a little easier for you, I will go ahead and announce the contestant that the judges have decided to eliminate this round. Finishing in 7th place is...
ririfan21
a very controversial player, you've done well for yourself In this competition! you should be proud, especially When considering the odds stAcked against you throughout thiS whole competition. fRom the beginning, yOu were a very enthusiastic player and we appreciated yOur energy and character. i hope you'll sTick around to see who wIns it! i kNow you could really have made Good use oF that wOnderful atRl+ subscription. unfortunatelY, at this time, yOu will have to retUrn to the i love money mansion and pack your bags.
That means that Addicted and Nicki Minaj will decide which of the bottom three (Stevie, Adam, & Su-Barbie-A) will be leaving.
