Ah come on V1, a couple of scuffles doesn't merit any jail time. We've all had our abominable moments.
Favorite challenge player? Abram. Reminds me a lot of myself.
Jamie from I believe New Orleans is another rad guy. Not sure if he did a challenge or not. He's a little older.

Respectfully, I was involved in the matter of the assault during "Viewer's Revenge," so I am a little more informed than you. Criminal assault is just that, and in California normally it involves a booking and some time in lockup before bail is set. You also do not know about the days that followed the assault in which Abram contacted the other cast members in an attempt to learn Adam's residence address so that he could finish the job.
If you think that is just a "scuffle" unworthy of my disdain, then you don't want me at your defense table or most certainly not in the prosecutor's chair.

Yeah, he has been on 3 challenges: The Extreme Challenge, Battle of the Sexes 1 & The Gauntlet 2. He won all of them
I don't really have a favorite challenge player. For me "favorite challenge players" isnt really any different than "favorite castmembers that were on a challenge". It's just fun to see my favorite castmembers compete on the challenge and interact with castmembers from OTHER seasons.
So with that said, Tim from Road Rules 2, Holly from Latin America, pretty anyone who appeared on a show before 2001.
But castmembers like Lori, Antoine, Christena and other one-timer challenge players were fun to watch as well.

I agree, it's always cool to see people who haven't done a challenge before. You basically know what you are gonna get with Robin, Veronica, Rachel, Brad, Derrick, Kenny etc. because they've done so many of these. The people who haven't make it interesting.
Latin America Holly was pretty cool to me overall as well. She was likeable on her season, and on the first couple of challenges she did. I didn't like how she was involved in the throwing missions thing, but aside from that she was decent. I also love how she is a great competitor. I think she's one of the best competitors on the show ever.
Emily - I felt bad for her on Battle of the Seasons, having to deal with Chadwick and MVT Holly, but during Battle of the Sexes she really annoyed me. However, I really admire how well she was able to do in the missions and I also think she is one of the best competitors on the show. MVT Holly annoyed me on Battle of the Seasons, but she also is one of the best competitors ever. Just from what I remember of all of the challenges overall, both Hollys and Emily are the best female competitors ever, IMO. Better than several of the males as well.
[quote=needsalife;38113]I am going to duck after saying this...and hopefully Insider will have my back. But....I have started to like Kenny. I hated him before the Island, but I found myself enjoying his commentary. I went into the Island hating Kenny (and came out liking him) and think Johnny was great (and now I hate him).[/quote]
I have always thought Kenny was funny too. I liked Evan until he tried to get rid of Katie & Coral.

Hi "Mom!" Colie certainly is my favorite Real World poet.
Can you share with us the history of your daughter's name?

One of my good friends is named Nicole and we always called her Colie. In fact, until I saw the Denver season, I'd never heard of anyone else with that name!

Nicole was quite a sophisticated new born. She was hanging out with a bunch of toddlers. One little boy couldn't pronounce her name and started calling her baby Colie. The rest is history.
She has been Colie her whole life..except when I am angry with her..then she is NICOLE MARA!
I was always very fond of Dan and Tara from RR Northern Trail. Nice people, fun to watch, athletically talented. I miss people like them on the challenges.
And, also an honorable mention for Emily because...man, she was fun.

aww, don't worry we try to protect our own and like it or not, you are one of us now :D
Wes is my favorite challenge player ever. He was never scared of anyone, including CT. thats not something you can say for any other cast member. Not just that but thers just something about him that makes me root for him all the time. he destroyed people one by one on both the challenges he was on. not to mention his battle with Derrick was probably one of the best showdowns in challenge history.

Yay! Another Wes Fan! I like you already :)
[quote=tjhallow;67972]Yay! Another Wes Fan! I like you already :)[/quote]
haha oh yes and forgot to mention he is a perfect 6-0 in head to head competetions. 7-0 if you wanna count his win over brad in the finals of the duel
he was 5-0 on fresh meat with CASEY as his partner. thats saying something
and then on the duel they realized "man this guy sure is tough" so nobody called him out into the duel. and when he beat derrick it only opened peoples eyes more.
the man is legend :)
hopefully he does well in the pit
Boy:Brad he is a tough competitor and has made it to the end alot.
Girl:"Svetlana she shocked everyone on The Duel and was an underog plus i liked her during Key West.
Boys: Wes
Girls: Veronica
Wes is undeafeted and he plays a great strategic game as well. He is way better than CT or Evan. Well... obviously better than Evan.Veronica is a mediocre player but she has a GREAT social game... and plus she knows when she has to perform her best. Example: She performed her best mision in the second-to-last mission of the Gauntlet 1 when she outshined everyone else compared to the other challenges. She is a very smart player and competitior. Plus: She is hot and brings a lot of drama. :)

Female: Undoubtably Evelyn - she is the total package in my opinion when it comes to these challenges and has the brute force, patience, and smarts to back up her capabilities
Male: I have to say Darrell, because he always gets to the end and was the only one i've seen that made big bad abram take a back seat. I like Abe, but when Darrell called him out on I2, he wasn't talking all loudly and brashful like he did to others. The kid was scared. Classic TV
Do I really have to choose ;)
Male: Wes, because he just knows how the game works and The Miz, just because he's too funny. Love him!
Female: Aneesa, she's strong and so funny! she cracks me up!..And i just have to say Coral...(e)verything that comes out of her mouth is just great ;)

I absolutely agree on Ev. I like her because she's a challenge exclusive player. She doesn't have the side drama save for Brooke on G3. I feel that she only plays the game; great breath of fresh air from people like Veronica and Beth, who seem like they just want to stir things up.
I don't agree with your opinion on Darrell. Abram didn't seem intimidated one bit. He was yelling at D to get out from behind Miz and into the Inferno right then. I'd say Derrick is my favorite male player. The guy just lives for competition. He doesn't care how small he is, he will not step back from anyone. He slammed around Syrus and Ace on G2, knocked CT Brad and Big Easy off of the planks on The Duel, withstood a golf cart to the face, and ran the giant ball challenge with an injured girl against four other people on The Island. He's the man to me. Miz and Brad are close seconds.
I have a question, who do you guys think would win in a duel between CT, Alton, and Landon, three of the most dominant male players of the challenge? Im disappointed none of these guys have ever faced each other.

depends. CT vs Landon would be a dream match. I guess it depends what the challnge is. CT beats himself ALOT in these challenges.
I always had a soft spot in my heart for Alton. He was a beast in the challenges, but I don't remeber him ever being mean or deceitful. He was one of the more genuine people to compete on a challenge. And with that smile, who couldn't love him?!
I think it could go either way between Alton, CT, and Landon. CT has been even more dominant than Alton and Landon in challenges in terms of missions overall, I'd say. Just by the amount of lifeshields and best times (or whatever else) he's done. But it just would depend on what the elimination round would be based on. Alton seems to be an expert at climbing very quickly. He may also be great with balance since he did surfing and skateboarding. Landon might be awesome in an endurance based mission since he does mountain bike racing (and has placed very well in several races). He also had done a variety of sports. CT obviously is great at physical strength and aggression. I think they all can excel in a variety of things, though - just pointing out some of the ones that stand out well for them. And I'd think just because one of them might win a matchup one day doesn't mean the results would be the same if the same two people did the same elimination round again.
