The Challenge Series: RW/RR (Generic Thread)

I call Ibis - e-bese Tonya calls her e-beast Alton calls her uh-bese Mj calls her a-bese Everyone else I hear call her e-bese Ibis is a bird from what I know. When I first discovered her on MTV.com in 04 I was like "i-biss"? But when RR XTreme aired she said e-bese so I was like Ooh! I

I never had any problem pronouncing Ibis' name correctly. Probably because we're both Puerto Rican. I think she like me was born in the isle but she's lived in Florida most of her lifetime. The correct pronounciation is "e-bese".

Tonya will do more callenges right?

[QUOTE=TSPKM;111882]Tonya will do more callenges right?[/QUOTE] Without a doubt, everytime she said she was done (Inferno 3, The Island) she came back anyway so at this point, i wouldn't believe her that easily about "passing the torch" the next time she says it.

On the Inferno 3 Tonya said she would be doing challenges until shes 80

[QUOTE=salt&vinegar;111900]On the Inferno 3 Tonya said she would be doing challenges until shes 80[/QUOTE] Haha, I hope she does. She always does well and brings some entertainment.

Back in Battle of the Sexes 2, Rachel (RR Campus Crawl) said in the first episode, "You'll see me in the RW/RR Senior Challenge when i'm 60." It's been 5 years since that quote and she took a long break in that time so whether or not she'll really keep going on the shows i'm not entirely sure. And at this point, i'm pretty sure that the only shows she'll do are the ones that don't include Veronica due to the still unknown factor that caused their friendship/relationship to end on bad terms.

Tonya has never done a challenge without entertaining me. Even on The Island her fights with Kenny were funny.

The most people on a Challenge was ......? i think 32 which was gauntlet 3 correct me if im wrong

Didn't Battle of the Sexes 1 and 2 have 36 people?

[QUOTE=Lamb Chop!!!;112050]Didn't Battle of the Sexes 1 and 2 have 36 people?[/QUOTE] Yeah they both did. IMO they both had some of the best cast of all time.

What was with Piggy showing up and then leaving so soon twice? I knew about The Inferno and saw her in clips of the show that didnt edit her out right but I didnt know she did this a 2nd time? What was with her? I wish she could've gotten it together because she is a really good castmember.

Ok, I've been trying to avoid this as to not sound negative but what is so great about Katie? I never got it, I've seen almost every show she's been on since the Quest and she was always just there. Besides her yelling like a crazy person to Veronica I just never got the love she gets. The only good thing she ever did was yell at Evan on the G3 reunion then they seemed to be friends again on Duel 2 so there went any credibility she had in my eyes.

ILoveFlex, I like Katie because she keeps it real. She doesn't pretend to be upset when she isn't just beacause she wants camera time. She is hilarious. Unfortunetly, she does get the "just there" edit sometimes.I don't think that she has ever really been "just there". On The Duel 2, some of my favorite moments of the season were of Katie on the s#!t they shouldve shown. She is simply amazing, IMO. I think that she will be far from "just there" on The Ruins.

You should. They're usually pretty good.

I think Piggy only showed up and left on the Inferno. I don't know about another challenge.

[QUOTE=Runtzilla;112498]A 2nd time? I thought it was just the Inferno.[/QUOTE] I thought I posted this in the "Challenge Intersting Facts" thread. I think it may have been merged with this thread. Anyhow, if you go back and look through the Interesting facts pages a few back people mentioned that Piggy came back a 2nd time after The Inferno and left right away again. Dont know how much truth there is to that rumour though.

Anybody know whether Shane (RR Campus Crawl) and Ryan (Fresh Meat) have made up or are they still enemies? The whole story in a nutshell is that Ryan was Shane's boyfriend at the time FM was casting and when Ryan got cast, Shane broke up with him due to him feeling like Ryan decided to get cast for FM just so he could follow him around all stalker-like. Shane even campaigned heavily and succeeded in making Ryan and Melinda one of the early teams to go home. Later interviews showed that since then, they have made attacks on each other in internet writing. In interviews, they trash each other when one's name comes up in the Q & A. If they still hate each other, i guess that would explain why Shane hasn't appeared in Challenges since FM. I think he would do them, but now that Ryan is on them and is now the favorite gay guy who gets along with just about everyone, and since Ryan is starting to be a frequent Challenge member, perhaps Viewers' Revenge was his last hurrah since he apparently wouldn't wanna have to deal with the baggage they had.

Actually, I remember someone on here mentioning that they met Shane somewhere, and he said that MTV/BMP wants nothing to do with him... Whether or not that's true, who knows?

I want my tina back! To bad it will not happen:(

Wait why isn't Miss Barta not coming back?

Tina apparently is banned from challenges because of her premeditated attack on Beth during the Duel. I guess instead of it being in the heat of the moment, she talked to production about whether or not she would still get paid if she hit Beth. Long story short- she's "banned". Anyone know if the following people still have an interest in these shows: Yes- RR8 Emily- RR2 Laterrian- RR9 Julie- RW9 Blair- RR10 Jisela- RR10 Jose- RW17 Sarah- RW15 Amaya- RW8 Irulan- RW12 Trishelle- RW12 Or any people that haven't been on challenges before that want to be one?

Most of the older vets have moved on with their lives outside of reality tv considering it's almost been a decade since they've done a show. I don't think Jose wants to do a challenge. I know Trisha was dying to do a challenge, I wonder if she's been asked though...

I know Jose was busy when they asked him so? He was supposily going on Gauntlet 3. Trisha will do a challenge, Comon its trisha and plus she from Fresno :) she knows mostly everyone from the Challenges..

Blair and Julie both host TV shows now so I doubt their schedules would allow them to do a challenge. I'm actually surprised that Trisha, of all the people on Sydney, hasn't done a challenge. I didn't really expect Cohutta to do one and he's done two now (The Ruins being #2). I think it's funny, actually, that the only people from Sydney who haven't done a challenge are Parisa and Trisha--their cast was like Cancun in that I could totally see all of them bringing great drama on the challenges..
