Battle of the Seasons- Mike/Coral/Timmy/Emily.
Battle of the Sexes 1- Mark, Emily, Ellen, Ruthie.
Gauntlet 1- Sarah.
Inferno 1- Katie/Veronica/Coral.
Never saw Battle of the Sexes 2.
Inferno 2- Tonya.
Gauntlet 2- Derrick/Alton/Kina.
Fresh Meat- Wes/Casey.
[B]Duel 1- Wes/CT.[/B]
Inferno 3- Susie/Cara.
Gauntlet 3- CT/Evan/Coral/Frank.
The Island- Evelyn/Kelly Anne.
Duel 2- Evan.
The Ruins- Evan/Kenny/Johnny/Wes/Kelly Anne.
Fresh Meat 2- Wes/Kenny.
Wes has been one of the main stars every season he's been on ;).[/QUOTE]
They def weren't the only stars that season.
Wes and Ct were pretty much the biggest stars of that season, with Svetlana thrown in the mix. Although Brad and Jodi made it to the final, neither of them were highly featured. Beth carried the show until she was voted out and the Diem/CT romance was a big story, making Diem I guess also one of the "stars". However, I do find it funny that every single challenge he's been on, Wes has managed to be the star of the show. Does BMP/MTV really like him or is he really that interesting? Hhaha.
They like Wes ... he's alright but he's volatile enough and fails enough eventually that he is interesting. Almost like success for him is becoming a star crossed lover.

Um, Big Easy was a star on Gauntlet 3. His heart-attack gave the rookies the win of all the cash, after all the scheming and hard work the veterans did to throw girls into eliminations, screw people over, etc. The tragedy of the Veterans was directly due to Easy, so he's a hero in my book.

Does anyone know what Easy [I]actually[/I] had? Like, what they diagnosed his condition to be? Because apparently, he was up and partying that night, so it couldn't have been that serious.
I like the fact that Johnny warned them about Easy and they still didn't listen eventually that is what lead them to defeat as we seen on tv, as for Easy's condition I think it was exhaustion.

I agree. I don't understand why Johnny gets such a bad rap. He has very good instincts.
Big Easy was a big liability.
Susie is very manipulative, and can play very dirty in the challenges.
Both of these things were true, but he was cast as this villain for saying the obvious.

Did you watch the Island?
Johnny gets a bad rap because he is a Grade *********.
That being said, I agree with you that he has good instincts, he's not an idiot and he can play the game quite well. Which is why there's no need for him to be so out of control mean to everyone.
But prior to the Island I didn't have much a problem with Johnny. I actually thought he was alright.

Completely untrue. Let's not rehash this stupid Gauntlet 3/Big Easy nonsense for the 58th time. Find my earlier posts about it as to why that Challenge turned out the way it did. He was not made out to be a villain on Gauntlet 3...moreso a giant baby. I didn't even mind the guy until he started acting like a total d-bag on The Island, that's when his "villain" persona really began.

Then she got caught by Darrell and turned on the waterworks.
Everyone points to the Island in talking about Johnny Bannanas when he has said (to KellyAnne, Evelyn, and publicly to others) that he regretted the way he acted. My only point is that he did not deserve the awful depiction he got in the Ruins and he wasn't a baby in G3 (throwing in Easy would have been the most logical choice CLEARLY, the team just wantd to save Evan)

He may regret the way he acted, but some of the stuff he said was just really awful. It's just one of those things that could be forgiven, but not forgotten, you know? And it sure didn't stop him from screwing over those SAME TWO GIRLS on the Ruins. Like, really Johnny? You're going to screw over Evelyn, the one who took you to the finish line on The Island, and keep Susie, the one who screwed your team on I3?

Yeah thought he would be nice to Ev after she helped him on the Island...

A couple points:
1. Screwing over Kellyanne/Evelyn had nothing to do with his personal feelings. He wanted to take out KellyAnne because she's a good competitor. He felt like Evelyn could take her out. That has nothing to do with being an "*******" to them personally like he was on the island. He's just playing the game. Maybe it was a little hasty, but I don't think he was a jerk at all. He would have liked to have Evelyn on the final mission. Even Wes said in the After show, that it was a "very rational strategy".
2. He would have LOVED to get rid of Susie. He was the only one that threw the final elimination mission with the flowers, to get rid of Susie. Remember? He wanted KellyAnne to take her out. Clearly, he didn't respect Susie.

It had nothing to do with his personal feelings, but it had to do with Wes personal feelings. Johnny did mention, "we're going after your family, and the ones close to you." He's still an *******, and did in fact screw Evelyn over.
I think if Sandy's partner was someone like Wes or Kenny or even CJ, she would have done well. She has potential, it's just that she was paired with Danny...

Yeah I think he wanted to get back at Susie for Inferno 3, which was not a smart thing at all.
Did we watch the same show? In most if not all the elimination Danny was carrying the team. If anything I think she was definately the weaker link on her team here and it showed in the exile.
