Aquatta, you clearly watch this show for drama. Derrick is a great competitor and in terms of what these people are on the show for, to compete for money, he is very very far from worthless. In drama, maybe he doesn't add a lot, because maybe, he doesn't want to fight with others and pick on others. That makes him worthless? I guess that means you like the people in real life who talk down to others, and push people around. If you love the people who bring drama then you must be excited for the reunion, with Evan, Kenny, Johnny, Wes, Kelly Anne. If you only want to watch drama, why watch challenges? Just stick to real world.
And colt1819, you're calling us biased because we're Derrick fanboys, but aren't the people against Derrick being biased as well? Just because they aren't big fans of him does not make him worthless. I'll be as little biased as I can, Derrick brings no drama and brings a lot in competitions, but that doesn't make him worthless.
[QUOTE=salt&vinegar;140938]Honestly, what has Derrick brought, even from a competition perspective? He wasn't on the top of his game on this one.[/QUOTE]
Mods are probably gonna get mad since this isn't on topic but on this specific challenge, not many of have had a chance to stand out. The few that have are Cohutta and ... Evan? A little? That's just the guys. No one really was able to put their skills on display but going off past seasons, Derrick is better then Johnny, Syrus, Kenny, and at times Darrell? About on par with Wes as far as missions go. Derrick doesn't have to start fights to be liked on these shows. I'm not trying to convince others to like him, I'm just saying that he isn't worthless because he doesn't argue with others.
He in no wasy shape or form proved to be a better competitor then Darrell. Darrell won 2 ruins: one agianst Cohutta and the other agianst Danny and was primed to keep his win percentage at 100 percent until the fight with Brad. Darrell also didn't cost them their one loss as did Derrick.

Darrell would not have won that. He's too heavy. In this specific challenge, Derrick and Darrell and a lot of others haven't had many opportunities to showcase their individual skills. So to determine these things you gotta go back to past challenges. But I'll probably just get in trouble.
I didn't say he would have one had he been the one running. I just stated Darrell didn't cause his team to lose a single challenge based off of his mistakes as Derrick did.
I would hope that Kelly Anne learned her lesson! I love Katie but it seems odd that she is there. Does anyone know why they chose her? My guess is because she has been a big challenge character for a long time and they wanted her there because she said that this was her last challenge.

She's there because she hates Kenny and Evan. I'm more surprised that Tonya wasn't there, actually, I'm baffled by it.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that!
I am shocked at Tonya, too. I don't think that it has anything to do with V not wanting her there because they could easily do the same thing that they did at The Duel. My guess is that she didn't want to go.
[QUOTE=mr.unamazing;140959]Okay then, I'll pose a question. Do you guys think that Kelly Ann will be as "vocal" as she was on the Island reunion?[/QUOTE]
You mean, as "drunk" as she was on the Island reunion?
Yes I meant drunk. I found the reunion of the Island much more entertaining then the actual show. Hopefully they ask engaging questions and allow JEK not to run the reunion like the ran the Ruins.

I think it was that too because she's not really a liability. But then again, I don't see Tonya passing up an opportunity to be on TV. She seems like she likes the attention and she said she's still not done with challenges, who knows.
[QUOTE=Aquatta;140644]Derrick a central character? I dont ever remember him doing anything all season. He never does, he is just in the background for the most part looking horrible in his confessionals and always makes it to the end. I hardly call that a central character besides making it to the end all of the time. Derrick is worthless.[/QUOTE]
This made me laugh hysterically. I share the same view of Derrick, and hearing anyone defend him for things other than being a washed up competitor gets me mad, but that's neither here nor there. Sorry faceless <3 And what the hell is up with the peacock hair? Him being at reunion would be a filler spot, so I can see him not being there.
Why did KA and Wes break up? Sorry, I am so out of the loop =(
[QUOTE=tjhallow;142731]What couples?[/QUOTE]
Couples like Wes and Kelly Anne, and the reason they broke up. Or Kim and Dunbar, is anything going on? Or Sarah and Kenny or Johanna and Kenny, or Cohutta and Susie...couples like that.

That's the only part that matters to me. I'm such a happy little boy. =)
I want to know if people are getting along now. We know Darrell and Brad put it behind them. That was funny hearing how Kenny huged Wes. Like are Johanna and Kelly Anne getting along? Since they both said on the show they didn't like each other. Were they weird around each other? Was Veronica still mad at Evan/Kenny/Johnny/Johanna alliance?
Why the **** is people talking **** about Derrick? He might have been an average competitor in this challenge as alot of people were, but he is one of the best competitors in challenge history, easily. And I'm glad he doesn't start bull**** drama or even get involved in that lame ****. It's called being mature and grown up. All the stupid *** drama, drinking, ect. is why everybody I know stopped watching these challenges, and the Real World has way too much drama and unecassary bull**** to the point that nobody watches that **** either. Without the challenges/missions in these challenges it would be the same crap as the Real World. And Derrick is one of the few reasons I and everybody I know even give these challenges a chance. So, slow your role on talking smack about Derrick because I'm not trying to hear that ****.
And don't be hating on Derrick for being in the alliance with JEK. Derrick is winning and making money isn't he? Look what happened to your boy Wes, do you think Derrick wants to go against JEK and **** up his chances at winning like that ******* Wes did? Doesn't matter how he's is winning as long as he's winning, right? At least it doesn't matter to Derrick how he's winning and that's all that matters. And I'm glad Derrick wasn't invited to be on the Ruins Reunion with the rest of that trash. Derrick is too cool for those idiotic morons.
[QUOTE=BestUeVERhAD;143524]I really don't like Derrick. He's no better than JEK in my opinion.[/QUOTE]
Exactly. He just sat there while JEK were total ****** to everyone and didn't say anything. Yeah, I know he can't stop them - but him not saying anything is as bad as egging them on.
