The Duel II: Speculation (Non-Spoiler)

[quote=lalalamilf;36468]yes but ryan is oddly popular... if it were davis vs ryan you would think davis to win? i hope so. I missed inferno 3 so i dont know how decent davis is[/quote] I think that Davis would beat Ryan. I don't really remember Inferno 3, but Davis is alot bigger than Ryan (though I'm not really sure how they would do in a puzzle situation). Actually, now that I think about it, didn't Ryan almost beat Nehemiah in the Gauntlet 3? Or he at least didn't lose as quickly as I thought he would've.

[quote=darksamurai88;36471]I think it was a tough fight and at times Ryan almost beat him but couldn't finish the deed. If my memory serves me right.[/quote] Yeah, Ryan sure did go down swinging. [quote=tjboston;36470]I think that Davis would beat Ryan. I don't really remember Inferno 3, but Davis is alot bigger than Ryan (though I'm not really sure how they would do in a puzzle situation). [/quote] Davis was pretty good on I3. He took out Danny (Austin) and he made it all the way to the final Inferno where he was defeated by challenge favorite Derrick (Extreme). He even survived a 'glockin' from CT the first night, and had to live with a shiner bigger than Dave (Hollywood) on his Season Finale.

[QUOTE=OtherPplsDrama;36469]Sure, but Ryan hasn't done...well, [I]anything?[/I][/QUOTE] Ah, but he has done a great deal. He has one of the strongest social games among the 26 people on the challenge. Women like him and men like him. No one expects him to actually win anything physical, so unless there is no one seen as equally weak or weaker, he should be safe when in comes time to pick someone to go into a duel.

Good point. Maybe he's playing smarter than I thought.... :evilgrin:

[QUOTE=OtherPplsDrama;36476]True. Good point. Maybe he's playing smarter than I thought.... :evilgrin:[/QUOTE] Honestly, I don't know that he is even playing the game. I do know he likes the experience of being there.

[quote=OtherPplsDrama;36476]True. Good point. Maybe he's playing smarter than I thought.... [/quote] Smart or not. Good guy or not. --- He is a boring reality show character.

[QUOTE=Bacchus;36479]Smart or not. Good guy or not. --- He is a boring reality show character.[/QUOTE] He's never really there... and one thing I have noticed is whenever there is a fight he is like the silent backup fighters.... if that makes any sense :p

[QUOTE=V1man;36478]Honestly, I don't know that he is even playing the game. I do know he likes the experience of being there.[/QUOTE] Yes I think he loves the experiences. You know, a good way for rookies Issac and Nick to 'prove themselves' is to take out someone like Ryan first. It's more of a social move than a physical one. By taking out a popular (weak) player, you're creating a vibe that says, "Yeah, I just took your friend out, whatchu gonna do about it?!" It might not intimidate CT or Landon, but you can bet your bottom dollar that Dunbar and Davis will shake in their boots. By doing that, you can ensure that another 'unproven' player chosen for the Duel won't call you out.

If Issac or Nick have them, they should use them to take out a real player and not a "game nothing" like Ryan. The only thing it says to me is that you beat a weak guy who we all know wasn't going to win. Next time you'll need a steel cup and a mouth guard because they are going to beat the shit out of you to remind you that you're just a f'ing rookie.

But you know, Nick nor Issac have never been into any elimination challenge (Gauntlet, Inferno, Duel or even Exile) so their nerves will get the best of them. Landon, CT, Derek, & Evan have, so they've had there feet wet and know what to expect. So by taking out a weak player on their first duel they can get their feet wet without risking their spot in the game, so by the next time around they can make a ballsy move and [I]try[/I] to take out someone like Evan. It would be ashame if a vet would try to take out a 'challenge nothing' like Ryan. Hopefully, they don't try to turn against each other to ensure theirselves the victory. I'd hate to see Issac vs Nick, Round One of the Duel.

Who do you think will hookup this season? Heres my guess: Jenn-Aneesa, Nick, Issac,Ryan Landon- Kim,Paula or Shavonne Brooke- Rachel, or maybe KIM Paula-Dunbar,Derek,Landon Ryan-Davis,Jenn Ct-Brittini, Robin,Diem

I can't wait to tell her. She is 100 % pure heterosexual and has a BF in SC. So you don't think there is still something btw Jenn and Rachel? Landon, at last word, is in a serious relationship Brooke did try to chat up Rachel before the challenge, but a friend of Rachel's may have given her a timely warning about Brooke... Ryan - Jenn ?? Now that is just so wrong on so many levels! [spoiler]Hope CT worked really fast on hooking up with someone...[/spoiler]

Please go for it, I want to smile more.

[quote=Dartagnan;37385] Dave was someone that V1 said they had went to. [/quote] Dave is in the United States (Myrtle Beach) as of today.

Heres my guess: Jenn-Aneesa, Nick, Issac,Ryan Landon- Kim,Paula or Shavonne Brooke- Rachel, or maybe KIM Paula-Dunbar,Derek,Landon Ryan-Davis,Jenn Ct-Brittini, Robin,Diem[/quote] Brittini - I remember saying something about liking CT on her season. Maybe something could happen there? Or if Landon is not dating anyone right now, perhaps she might go for him? They are both from Wisconsin and both have done modeling. She slightly reminded me of Shavonda as well. Or perhaps maybe she would go for Issac, since he apparently had a thing for her at the Awards Bash (as I read in that thread here)? Paula - I think she is friendly with Landon (I saw her holding him and jumping around during the Awards Bash), so I think he could be a possibility to her, if he is not taken once again. Dunbar and Derek she has already hooked up with, so I think it is possible she might pick between them. I think the Ryan and Davis thing could happen as well.

I see Landon hooking up with Brittani or Kimberly for some reason. Kim is wild like him and Brittani might remind him of Shavonda.

[QUOTE=wutzrenzi;37410]I see Landon hooking up with Brittani or Kimberly for some reason.

I'd rather this didn't become a little like a **** site. I'll need to go take a shower if this continues.

I don't get the **** reference thing. It's just speculation. But I remembered hearing that Landon and his girlfriend he had on G2 had broken up a while ago. Don't know if it's true, and don't know if they have gotten back together since if it is, or if he has a new girlfriend. How long ago was it that you heard he is in a relationship, if you don't mind my asking? I think it's good if he is in one. I'd prefer not to see him hook up a lot on these shows.

This may be something I regret saying later as it might jinx her but at least Katie is still there and fighting.

K Jenns status is so confusing.....either she's talking about how she's about to leave New Zeland to come back to the states cause she's talking about coming home....or this could also mean the cast has internet access....or this could also mean that she's been eliminated and she's on her way back I don't know..you guys should check it out...V1 Man and Bacchus what's your guys take on this?....im on vevmo from my phone and I don't know how to put a spoiler tag on this but im hoping this is the right thread to post this stuff.....anyways.....here's jenns myspace..................[url=http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=59726087]MySpace.com - JENN - 24 - Female - Martinez, California - www.myspace.com/jlg330[/url]

Does it say anything in her Myspace that says she is coming home? Am I missing anything? The castmembers get internet access on interview days, so they check their myspace and facebook pages. So if you are basing it on her signing into her myspace, that doesn't mean anything.
