Draft is complete.

Free Agents: Brianna, Simone.

How Free Agents work:
If one of your players is kicked out of the game for something stupid (fighting, sexual harrassment, quitting because they're a god-damned pussy), you do not get to pick up a free agent. If one of your players leaves the game through a method other than standard competition elimination that is not of their choosing (teammate kicked out, injury, family emergency, etc.), you can pick up one of the free agents. If multiple people end up needing free agents the same week (for instance, if someone gets injured and both teammates have to leave), we'll go by Fantasy Football rules and the lower draft pick gets first pick of the waiver wire. That person then drops to the bottom, for what it is worth. If additional players are added to the game as replacement players, they will be added to the free agent pool. If all free agents are gone, tough titties. Points from one player to the next will be assigned between episodes (i.e. if you drop Camila after Week 4 because her partner got kicked out, and pick up Brianna, you will get Camila points in Week 1-4, and Brianna points from there on out. You will not get Brianna Week 1-4 points). Terms and conditions may apply; sales tax may be applicable in certain states. Side effects may include nausea, diarrhea, and excessive Niaism.

Here's our scoring system:
Scoring:

Here's our scoring system. I made a couple of very minor changes from last year; those changes are in bold. There will be some discretion made, in case things that obviously happened off camera (i.e. crying or coitus on the other side of a closed door).

Final Results:
1st: 100
2nd: 50
3rd: 25
4th: 10 (only if participating in the final)
Note: You must not quit the final to get points for it.

Win a challenge: 10
Win an elimination: 15
TJ says "You killed it": 20
TJ should have said "You killed it" but didn't explicitly say so: 10
Making TJ disgusted by your performance: -20
Threatening to throw a challenge: -5
Following through throwing a challenge (cumulative with threatening): -10
Trying to throw a challenge but still winning it (cumulative with previous two): -10
Survive each episode: 5

Mentioning Johnny Bananas' bobblehead: 5
Puking on camera: 5
Commissioner's Award: 0-15 points. If something amazing happens that isn't otherwise rewarded, extra points can be awarded at my discretion (i.e. Nia drinking Zach's sweat last year, Jordan flipping all the cards the year before)


If there is an aired "Shit They Should Have Shown" show, that will count in scoring. The reunion episode will not.

Note: 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.

Let me know if we need anything changed prior to the first episode. Should have been prior to the draft, but I forgot.

[Byrd]

Premiere is tonight. Looking forward to it.

Elimination Prediction: Brandon and Brianna. No real reason, other than they're rookies, and I don't have either one on my team.

[Valisk]

Jenna and Brandon are on the trading block for me. Serious inquiries only.

[Valisk]

Why on Earth would you sign up for The Challenge if you're afraid of heights? Rhetorical. Of course I know why, but come on.

And I like how when Tej was announcing the prizes. He said a share of $350,000. 3rd place gets $25K, 2nd place gets $50K... Then there was this dramatic ass, pregnant pause - cameras zooming into faces - like no one could do math before he accounced what 1st place gets.

[Vil]

Considering the performances when they do trivia/spelling/etc. challenges, I appreciate giving them a little longer to at least attempt to do the math in their heads.

[Headspace]

These no elimination episodes giving me blue balls

No kidding. I record/watch later usually and then it's like "oh, show's over?" There would have been two ways that I could have supported that.

1) If there were a "to be continued" type thing, but it's best to save those things for like when CT had the Bananas backpack. Was that even a cliffhanger or no? I can't remember.

2) If the episode were only 60 minutes. It's a premiere, so I'm all for giving more time to set the tone of the house, but you can do that in 60-70 minutes and use the last 20-30 for "The Decision" and the elimination challenges.

[Xno Kappa]

It's weird. Aren't premiere episodes usually two hours long?

[Vil]

Maybe they are, and while I don't need 2 hours of that, if that's what it would take to get an elimination, I'd be fine. Oh, option #3 for not having an elimination. If someone CTs it up and more or less murders someone, meaning they need to devote 30ish min to that, ok.

Was there an aftershow? I rarely watch those anyway, just curious. That would seem dumb as fuck to have one from that.

nah I don't think so, that sound really long lol

I'm worried two of my guys (Portland and Nathan) are going to be facing off in the first elim >.>

Same with Jessica and Christina. Think Christina makes it decently far because I think she hooks up with a chick based on previews and we haven't seen that yet.

Also, give me my Jamie coitus points please.

[Valisk]

I like how they brought back two "Bloodlines" cast members without their Challenge connection. Jaime without Cara Marie and Dario without Ralphy.

Next year we should give extra coitus points for those who engage in it but have a bf/gf at home. Extra bonus points if the bf/gf getting cheating on is a cast member currently in the house!
