Challenge 26: Battle of the Exes II (America's Fifth Major Sport)
Premieres next Tuesday. This time with Are You the One? cast members. Hopefully, that's a short trend. The only other show I want to see combined with this one is Jersey Shore. Of course, it gives the Real World rookies a better chance this time, I suppose.

Chris "CT" Tamburello RW: Paris
Dustin Zito RW: Las Vegas (2011)
Jay Gotti RW: Ex-Plosion

For Fantasy players, Fantasizr supports this game, but it still leaves out all of the fun rules, and doesn't include CT or Diem on their draft board. The guy who did the scoring last time didn't finish the job, and they're not sure if he's doing it again.
So unless someone has a better idea, I will do the scoring each week. Or at least I'm going to start out doing the scoring, we'll see how it goes. It's unlikely to go up every Wednesday night, but it will be done within a couple of days. I'll e-mail out the spreadsheets too, so you guys can double-check my scoring.
If there's a discrepancy or disagreement, we'll appeal to Fantasizr scoring. If it doesn't cover it (i.e. the "fun rules"), I'll solicit a second opinion from...I don't know. Somewhere. Maybe Survivor Sucks.
We need to draft in the next couple of days. I have set up a custom league in Fantasizr that allows me to include CT and Diem. I'm assuming Moss and Headspace are in; if someone else wants in, PM me your e-mail address, and plan on being online Monday night, probably around 9pm Eastern / 6pm Pacific. You can set up to Autodraft with pre-rankings if you like. We can use this for the draft, but I'm going to manually score using the spreadsheet I used last time.
Here's our scoring system. Since I'm doing this myself this time, I adapted a few things, and added in some clarifications on the Exile thing. I may have to adjust them after the first episode once we figure out exactly how it works.
Final Results:
1st: 100
2nd: 50
3rd: 25
4th: 10 (only if participating in the final)
Other Challenge Related Stuff:
Win a challenge: 10
Win an elimination: 15

Somber Note: Diem leaving the show counts as an Extreme Personal Matter. Assuming CT leaves the show at the same time, he will also not lose any points.
If there is an aired "Shit They Should Have Shown" show, that will count in scoring. The reunion episode will not.
Since I am doing this scoring manually, I will allow trades up until the show that airs immediately before the final. As with other fantasy sports, scoring will not be retroactive, and will only start scoring the week immediately after the trade. No trades on Tuesdays between noon and midnight Pacific time. Players already eliminated are not able to be traded. Players still on Exile Island are available to be traded.
26 draftable players this time. 5 participant max, I think. If you want in, but weren't in last time, send me a PM.
Let me know if we need anything changed prior to the draft.

Instead of having a few teams with more/less players than the others, can we just leave remaining players undrafted after we reach the highest common denominator or w/e?

yeah it ends the draft before teams get lopsided. we just need to figure out how to split the leagues since there is so much interest
We're up to 7 people who want in. I think we should divide into two groups. I can score both and send out the spreadsheets, but would need someone else to set up the second league on Fantasizr. One option would be to have a relegation league between seasons, or two entirely separate leagues, or if we had an odd number, we could actually probably all "compete" together, but each player would end up on two teams. Not sure that matters much, really.
Drop the last 2 who expressed interest, lol. 2 leagues/groups sounds complicated and diluted. 5 participants max, 5 players each, 1 undrafted player. That's my vote anyway.
i'll drop out even tho technically i said i wanted to be in before anyone else, it just happened to be in last seasons thread. but whatever. i prefer cheering for qalbert and headspace anyway!
Wonder how they are gonna treat the Diem situation. Didn't she start on the show, left for illness, and died while the show was still filming? Or maybe it was finished filming before she passed.

Starting at 6:30pm Pacific / 9:30pm Eastern tonight. If you're there late, we might go without you, so set up your auto-draft.
You should have a link in your e-mail which you can go to in order to sign up.
Since Tyven graciously bowed out, we'll each draft four players, and Tyven can take Qalbert's place of having the last two and rooting for a Devyn-like performance.
Diem left mid-show when she got ill. She'll presumably be on the show, and leave at some point. I don't know how far in that was; I'm sure if you sniff around enough you can find internet spoilers. I assume CT will leave, too, unless they something funny happens. I'll score them both normally, and I won't be docking them any points when they leave.
Alternatively, we could just choose not to draft CT and Diem if people would prefer.
