Actually, on another board under a different name, M****ole claims to be a family friend of CT, knows his brother, etc... Whatever relationship he may have with CT is clouded by the fact the he always lays claim to the dark side of CT's personality and actions. Unfortunately, whatever relationship he may have or may have once had with CT is dated. At the MTV RW Awards Bash, CT came alone and spent most of the evening hanging around Beth and her fiance, Matt. My thinking is that M****ole didn't get the memo from the CT camp that would have updated his talking points.

That's what you should do in a game like Push Me where you have a big weight and strength advantage. Beth was struggling against Svet, even when she did try to push on the pole, she wasn't moving it that much. Go back and watch the end of CT & Brad's duel when CT gets up off the ground. He has the flag in his hand with the string and carabeaner totally intact. He didn't rip the carabeaner off, he ripped the little ring that was holding the flag to the carabeaner.
You are so clueless, it's embarrassing.

Svetlana was part of an alliance with Beth until she decided to make a power play on her own. Beth was not going to expend a lot of energy against her in their duel because she judged herself in far better shape than Svetlana in a contest in which Beth held a clear strength, mass and experience advantage. Not expending energy unnecessarily in any competition was part of Beth's strategy going in to the challenge. What you didn't see was Svetlana walking off the competition area in tears and frustration because she could not move herself forward or beth further away from the flag. Beth was in the process of unclipping the carabiner when Svetlana ran back on the platform are and threw herself into the pole. Beth was extended over the pole to unattach the carabiner. Her hand was pulled away from the carabiner but she still held the flag and it separated from the carabiner. There was about a 15 minute discussion that took place among the producers and TJ, during which time the cameras kept rolling on Beth as they hoped for some outburst from her. They didn't get one. They also hoped for some big reaction from her when TJ announced Svetlana as the winner. Again, they didn't get on. Certainly, many were happy to see Beth go home because she was 1) not in their alliance, or 2) someone they would not wish to face later. She left smiling and laughing after a short conversation on the platform with Wes. Everyone, including Svetlana, knew it was a BS call by production. Those are the facts.

They do?

I'm clueless as to why, even after repeated tries to get back on topic, that this has turned from the Best Elimination Ever thread into the repeatedly bash someones character thread. Everyone is entitled to not like anyone they choose but this isn't the thread to highlight it in.

LoL. Yeah, I think it needs it's own thread. But back to the topic, the Beth vs Ruthie gauntlet was pretty good.

It was good because it was one of those Gauntlets you could get into, Ruthie was trying so hard and it was just hopeless. Same with the Derrick/Timmy Gauntlet but more so since Derrick was this close to getting to the last mission and he fell short.

That was a really cool Gauntlet, but also really sad. He worked really hard to get there and at the last male gauntlet day he was eliminated. I felt really bad for him.

Derrick had worked hard the entire challenge and then the last one he came up just short. It just wasn't his game against Timmy and it added to his challenge losing streak but hey we all know he did win eventually

I wonder why they didn't go by them rules in the Gauntlet 3? You know, where the captain of the losing team goes in.
