ESB Underwater (ESB Underwater Season 1)

ESB Underwater is the first season of the series with the same title. In this season, twenty-four teenagers arrive at Bikini Atoll to take a ride, via submarine, into the underwater town, Bikini Bottom to compete in various challenges for the $500,000 grand prize.
==Overview==
Mavnol333 welcomes a total of twenty-four teenagers on Bikini Atoll, the island directly above Bikini Bottom, which is where the competition these contestants will compete is located. Some contestants start to warm up to each other, while some others start to grow a strong dislike for one another or even a borderline rivalry. Mavnol333 puts the contestants into two teams of twelve and sits back as the tea stirs. As challenges go on, the contestants go through more and more drama as Mavnol333 gets more and more mean to the players. Every single challenge takes place in a location that has appeared in a SpongeBob SquarePants episode or some kind of SpongeBob SquarePants media, considering that the series released its episodes on Encyclopedia SpongeBobia. The contestants get to see some familiar faces throughout the competition, as well as the audience. If you wanted, you could essentially call this season a tour of everybody's favorite underwater town... until a competitor accidentally blows the town up with a stick of dynamite right before the semi-finale. From then on, the contestants, along with Mavnol333 and the former contestants, had to relocate to compete in the final challenge.
==Censorship==
Because of Encyclopedia SpongeBobia's restrictions, there is a fair amount of dialogue that had to be censored to meet the wiki's policies. Most of the censored dialogue is just swear words being cut out, most commonly "fuck" and "shit", but there were a few other lines that didn't make it past ESB's censors or had to be removed. In the twenty-seventh episode of the season, The Glove Games, GuyBesideYou3 originally said Okay, so I give myself nicknames while I sleep. It’s not like I do it on purpose! It has been happening ever since the tar pits challenge! I hate this show. in the confessional stall. However, the episode would not release thanks to the phrase I hate this show. This phrase triggers ESB's abuse filter, as the wiki's staff doesn't want users going around hating on SpongeBob SquarePants just for the sake of hating on it. The filter thought that the phrase was referring to the main show and refused to release the episode. After hours of trying to figure out what was triggering the abuse filter, the phrase was eventually identified as the one that triggered the filter, so it was modified to I can’t wait to sue Mavnol for harassment.
The finale of the season, ESB Underwater Reunion, went through some censorship troubles as well. The episode was reported to an admin for its censored swearing, which caused every censored word to be removed from the episode's script, causing multiple lines of dialogue to be completely nonsensical. The creator of the series tried reasoning with the administrator and later found out that they mistook the user's report and thought every censored word was in order of removal instead of a certain one. After the misunderstanding was realized, the censored words were put back on the episode's script, although the characters that were merged with the censor had to be removed. Most readers of ESB Underwater are aware of the incident, and the creator of the series decided to parody all of the events that happened that day by placing a swearing limit in the second season.
