The Challenge 28: Rivals III

[Vil]

I don't really remember who it was (I'm terrible with names on these shows until they play like 4 times), but the guy that ended up being in the girls' room. One of them was like "well, most of us have boyfriends anyway". As if that's ever mattered.

Bonus points to the guy that at least was honest saying that all he does is party and then come to do these Challenge seasons. I know he claimed he "worked" as well, but how many of these people consider appearance fees at clubs as "work"?

Scoring finally done, spreadsheet is sent out. Didn't get to watch it until today, sorry, it's been a busy week. I assigned the two free agents to Qalbert for the time being, because he cares about this so much. Curiously, he outscored Moss, who has twice as many players. Nate disappointing TJ was the only negative points of the week.

Current standings:

Headspace 40
Tyven 40
Valisk 40
Byrd 30
Xno Kappa 25
Qalbert 15
Moss 10

Every contestant who got more than the 5 episode survival points:
Ashley 25
Jamie 25
Jenna 15
Vince 15
Camila 10
Leroy 10
Nany 10
Simone 10

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!

Not a bad idea.

not surprised that i have a commanding lead

[Moss]

fucking nate

[Valisk]

You are undefeated like last year's Super Bowl winning Jets.

[Xno Kappa]

Leroy forced out on the second episode. That's fucking brutal for such a strong player.

EDIT: Thanks for nothing Cheyenne.

[Vil]

I'm not sure if they even stick to set rules or if it changes over time, but is it:
injury - both go
disqualified - replacement brought in

Either way, I've never liked that. I don't know why I care enough to draw the distinction but Fresh Meat is probably the only format where I wouldn't care, just because they're picking their partners there.

[Byrd]

Leroy - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Averey - not on my team but it always sucks when the hottest girl in the house leaves.

That does open those slots up for free agents, though, giving myself and Tyven the option. My original draft pick was worse, so I have first pick, and I will take Simone, given Briana to Tyven (unless he wants to hold off and hope someone else shows up to replace them that he can draft). I'll assume not unless I hear otherwise. Averey and Leroy's Week 1 & 2 points will count towards their team; Briana & Simone's Week 3 and on points will count towards theirs.

OH NO WHAT HAPPENED TO MY PLAYER? i guess i will take braiana

[Valisk]

I really like the twist of 3 teams being up for "elimination". At first I thought all 3 would be competing and last place is eliminated (would be awesome), but I am fine with how it is. Puts more people on the hot seat.

The dude trying to get with Jessica severely crashed and burned. He was too drunk to finesse those panties off. He was going about it like a frat boy. They strategy was all wrong for a girl like Jessica.

[Vil]

Yeah, it's not much, but is something to throw a wrinkle in there. I wish they'd get away from the power couple's pick vs. last place eliminations for a while though. Besides the kill card in Free Agents and most of Bloodlines, the format has had little change since the first Rivals.

[Byrd]

Two non-elimination episodes in the first three. Boo. Not even any challenge win points this week. What the hell, MTV?

Am I the only one that thinks the drunk chick that banged Jamie on the first episode looks 40?

I also hate emotional drunks and this episode had 3 of them. The drunk elderly lady that blew up at Nicole for "not" kissing Jamie. Simone who had a meltdown because Wes didn't say she is attractive. And the new girl who is just talking shit to everyone because "they all hate us anyway".

Over consumption of alcohol is the downfall of so many people. Both on the show and in... The Real World.

[Valisk]

The women in the house bicker so damn much. Over the dumbest shit.

Edit: Tony has an anger problem. Especially towards women.

[Valisk]

Wow... When was the last time someone quit the challenge?

Fuck Brandon! Team down to 3 -_-

[Xno Kappa]

I feel like the majority of the cast putting Brandon on blast through the confessionals was intentional to help discourage future pussies.

[Byrd]

Another fucking week of no elimination. They didn't even give us a full challenge. What the hell?

I feel like the majority of the cast putting Brandon on blast through the confessionals was intentional to help discourage future pussies.

I appreciated that greatly.

Congrats to Valisk on being the first owner I can recall to have an overall negative point week.

Brandon quit, so he can't be replaced, but Tyven can pick up either Nelson or Amanda for Briana, if he wants. Or he can wait a week and see who the replacements showing up next week are. Let me know what you want me to do.

[tyven]

I'll take Nelson I guess?

[Byrd]

Half a challenge and a full elimination. Getting there. Ashley's the season MVP so far. Devin and Cheyenne are back, so they're getting survival points starting in week five again, back on their same team.
