Welcome back, ENTM fans! Round three turned out t'be trickier than expected but we still saw some fantastic work from our models! As always though, someone had t'be knocked out an' this round we lost Miki from th'ladies an' L'yhan from th'men. Sorry t'see both of you go an' we hope you'll stick around!

On that note, we've another unexpected removal from th'contest. Sienna has been eliminated by default due t'missin' a submission deadline. L'yhan was offered th'chance to return in his place but chose t'decline an' enjoy his retirement. As a result, this round will once again not have an elimination from th'men in order t'keep th'numbers right. Lads, if another one o' you misses a submission I'm trackin' you down an' keelhaulin' you myself!

On a more pleasant note, this week's model spotlight falls upon th'delightful Adeline Urusa!

=============================================================

Tyriont: Adeline! First off, congratulations on makin' it this far! Time t'get t'know you a little better, I reckon. Let's start out by tellin' me a little about th'meanin' behind your name.

Adeline: “Well Mr. Tyriont, not sure if you could tell or not, but I’m actually half Midlander Hyur and half Sun Seeker Miqo’te. When I was very young, my mother fell ill and died, and my father was long gone by then, and I ended in a Limsan orphanage. There I was given a Hyuran name.”

(This is actually my first MMO where I’ve used the name Adeline~ RL it is a long running family name. My last name was originally going to be Ursa, but it didn’t roll right with Adeline, so I added the ‘u’ in there!)

Tyriont: ...let's not call me "Mister", eh? Stick with "Cap'n", "Ty", or "Sexy Pirate King". All work! Next up, how d'you fill your days other'n modelin?

Adeline: “In all honesty, I prefer just sleeping in…unfortunately, I swear I never have the capacity to do so. My spriggan Dusty always manages to wake me up early. Besides sleeping in, I enjoy meddling around with my friends and free company members, furthering my studies across the various guilds of Eorzea, and harvesting wood and ore, gardening, cartography, cooking, and fishing of course!”

(I also LOVE raiding! I wish I could raid everyday…on top of that, I love to farm content, a desynthing!)

Tyriont: A pet Spriggan, eh? I should introduce you t'my friend Ari sometime. What made you choose t'come try out as a model for us?

Adeline: “Well, I’ve never well…been too confident of my body. My betrothed tells me that I shouldn’t be so afraid to express myself. I find the ENTM contest as a way to slowly break out of my thick skin, and let loose!”

(It also allows me to use my creative mindset for screen shot ideas! I love taking screenies!)

Tyriont: I'd offer my opinion as t'why you should be confident of your body, but Mack's around here somewhere and she's likely t'try an' get me in trouble with my own lass...so best not. Anyways! Switchin' things up a bit from th'other interviews, what's your most hated place in Eorzea?

Adeline: “I bloody hate the Thousand Maws of Toto-Rak…it’s such a disgusting venue. The hordes of diremites, the cobwebs, the green ooze on the floor…ugh the place gives me shivers. No amount of diremite webs is worth the amount of uneasiness I feel every time I go there…”

(Don’t get me started on the length and mechanics as well -_- its so long and redundant, and you can just cheese the last boss…)

Tyriont: Time t'flex those writin' muscles! What's your story in th'form of a haiku?

Adeline: A young girl left alone (5)
She one day managed to find (7)
The home she longed (5)

Tyriont: Now that sounds like there's quite th'story. Be interested t'hear it in detail sometime. Lastly, tell me one fact that th'ENTM fans don't know about you.

Adeline: “Hmm…well I will say I’m an extensive lover of Ul’dan areas. Because of my love of Ul’dah, I own two properties in the Goblet. One belonging to my old disbanded free company, along with my own private estate…along with that, due to my history of Limsa, I’m not so fond of it…”

(If you’re ever on Adamatoise, send me a tell and visit me! Goblet Ward 6 for my house, and Mist ward 2 for my current FC’s house! I also have an alt on Balmung now with the same name! Holla at me on tumblr at urusamajor.tumblr.com !!)

Tyriont: Well, we can't all have taste. My thanks for givin' me some time Adeline! Best o' luck in th'comin' round!

=============================================================

Right, onto round three!

With fewer models now, things are changin' ever so slightly. This time I need each o' you to go through an' pick our your favourite Three models from each o' the lists. That's three men, an' three women. Round closes at midnight (EST) on Wednesday, November 26th.

Now then, as I mentioned at th'beginnin'...we're once again down one more male contestant than intended. As a result, this week there will be -no- contestant eliminated from th'male side, havin' already lost our second contestant by default. However, I should still like t'ask everyone t'vote for th'men anyways so as they get a better idea of how t'improve an' see how they're all doin'!
