[QUOTE=AEvans5;220531]I thought CT and Tina were this week, and that Dunbar/Dan and Camila/Laurel were after that.[/QUOTE]
CT and Tina appear for the Johnny/Tyler and Tori/Theresa Gulags.
Dan and Camila go home before Johnny and Theresa.
[QUOTE=molds13;220529]It's hard to say. I don't know what the challenge is 2 weeks from now, but I have seen the following and can guess:
Johnny/Theresa, Emily/Jenn, Dunbar/Paula, Dan/Luke, Abram/Cara Maria on a tightrope (next mission)
?????
Derrick, Tyler, Brad, Dunbar, Abram, Luke, Emily, Jenn, Paula, Tori, Cara Maria, Sarah, Laurel with shields (last mission before final)
Sarah covered in mud (likely from shield challenge, possibly from final)
Tyler and Dunbar army crawling under barbed wire (likely final)
Dunbar sliding down something into a sand pit and crawling out (likely final)
Tori, with sand on her and Abram being carried on a stretcher, with other teammates covered with sand (likely final)
Jenn and Brad using some sort of paintball gun with Cara Maria, Dunbar, Tori in the background (possible challenge, but likely toward the beginning of the final)
I have seen Abram and Laurel using some sort of metal thingamajigs and if I had to guess, would say that is a challenge, not part of a final, but of course I could be wrong.[/QUOTE]
Is it me or does that sound like they're storming the beaches of Normandy or something highly military-related? It sounds like an obstacle course with a military theme and the paintball gun could definitely cause injuries, especially if they're shot in the face and not wearing chest or back padding. Mud crawl into barbed wire crawl (or vice versa) into a sand pit, dodging paint ball gunfire and possibly slamming into a defender with a shield? It'd make sense, particularly with Mtv's Army connection from past seasons. That and the first challenge would've been foreshadowing a bit, if it is. WW2 meets Mtv.

Ok molds, so for the final the blue team will just have 2 people, Emily and Jenn?

I mean, they started off with a gas chamber. I wouldn't be surprised if the final was military related at all.

Correct...

I bypassed my morning bowl to have a brain today. I know in WW2, Czech was a big part of the war and they built up an underground resistance to Hitler and actually assassinated a big guy in the Third Reich and Czech soldiers joined forces with England. It grew into some nasty business, but they fought the ***** till the end and sort of succeeded in the end. Since they had the gas chamber, have used local history in challenges before (The Duel 2 was a big one that comes to mind), it's not impossible that it could be something related to that or at least similar. Dodging (paintball) bullets, crawling under barbed wire and through mud and a melee thrown in. Gulag's a Russian/Soviet term and the Soviets backed the Czechs against the *****, so... my brain hurts now. Thankfully they didn't have the show in the hood or it'd look like How to Dodge a Driveby.
It'd be pretty rad, if they did stick to the local Prague history. This could be the last remotely intelligent thing I post here and I just joined. How sad.
[QUOTE=AEvans5;220541]So I know that Red wins, but how do the other teams finish?[/QUOTE]
I don't know if their remaining members end up crossing the finish line, but I know that technically, the gray team does not finish. So I guess you could say that the blue team finishes second?

The paintball part is weird to me, because Jenn definitely tells someone she's aiming at (who I'm guessing is Emily) to "stay still" (or maybe it was "stop moving").
[QUOTE=molds13;220544]If it's the same Gulag as the women, it's some sort of puzzle.[/QUOTE]
Okay, that makes me feel better about Dunbar beating Dan.....though I did want to see Dan in a physical gulag.

It sounded like she said "Dan", but that could be my hearing. It's hard to get what she said clearly on the preview.
[QUOTE=Superboy;220552]Okay, that makes me feel better about Dunbar beating Dan.....though I did want to see Dan in a physical gulag.[/QUOTE]
It could still be physical. I don't know the intricacies of how the Gulag went.
[QUOTE=AEvans5;220557]I know Sarah messes up, and I saw in the preview that Abram throws up. Does anyone else choke in the fianl from Gray?[/QUOTE]
Yes. I have stated that from what I've been told, 2 members of the gray team do not finish.
And I don't know who the second one is, so don't ask!
Gulags were used as prisons, so maybe the final is a prison escape and Jenn on the gun was acting as a guard, either helping blue team escape or trying to slow down red and grey from escaping. If there are multiple injured players at the same time, are there enough medics to tend to them or would a team player maybe have to help carry a stretcher? The guns make sense to me, but the stretchers don't.
I forgot that in the preview you can see Abe swaying and unable to keep his balance and then you hear Luke say "No we're carrying Abe", so either they're are required to carry somebody (Abe and Tori are shown on the backboards) or they have a choice to carry somebody. I don't think they're required to carry anybody because that'd be difficult for Emily and Jenn.
And Molds, you were correct the first time, Jenn says "Stand still", just so ya know haha. But with Cara Maria and Dunbar just nonchalantly pacing in the background, I'm not sure what could be going on, especially if it was part of the final.
Dunbar ego? Really, he hasn't done anything really to have an ego or for the word to be in the same sentence as his name. Now I guess since he beats Dan or whoever he has an ego because he has won one elimination this season.[B][My Opinion][/B] If anyone deserves an ego its Brandon not because he won about 3 one on one's but because he was in a lose-lose situation and didn't quit.[B][My Opinion]
[/B]In addition why is there so much puking I would understand if they did bizarre buffet like in the Ruins?
And is it official that the [COLOR=Red][B]Red Team[/B][/COLOR] does win because it doesn't seem that its official yet.
It makes me sad to see Dan losing and for Dunbar.
I didn't see any previous challenges of them before, but I was liking Dan. His past with alcohol touches me.
On the opposite side is Dunbar. I don't know why, but I can't like the guy. Maybe it's his face, I don't know, there's something in him that makes me not like him.

Since Abram puked a good amount of liquid, I'd guess it has something to do with water or running (drink a lot of water, run, puke). Was it me or did a few look either sweaty or wet, so either could be a possibility.Prague's gotta big river and hills, too, so again, could be either long distance running or swimming.
I won't lie. That teaser for the second half is awesome!!!!!! Now that looks Cutthroat. Love also that Paula gets screwed because she (with those same people) screw over Brandon and Camila. Seeing that happen to Paula again..... (this may seem mean), but I can't wait to see her reaction. I thought you learned to not rely fully on alliances Paula? Looking forward to this. By the way, if there are only 3 episodes left, why do they call it a mid-season trailer? Weird, but ok. Also that Paula/Laurel fight looks..... interesting. Laurel ripped off her shirt like it was paper. And it's rather ironic that Camila says she doesn't wanna go against Laurel, but does just that.

Well according to Molds they did, whether you want to believe her or not is a different question, but she hasn't really steered us wrong before.

Could it be that he's completely smug and defaming of other contestants when everything he's shown us to date has him completely underwhelming our expectations of what he's built himself up to be.

I'd say that's exactly it. Totally agreed. Dunbar sucks and I don't think much anyone can disagree. LOL

He might suck, but he walks away with the win this season.

Yes, unfortunately and it irks me to my bones. No wonder Tyler was ****** at his team in the aftershows thingy. He went in against CT and Johnny and then they sent him in again back-to-back against Derrick, instead of sending Dunbar in again. As much as I didn't use to like Tyler that much, I have to admit, his track record looks really good from this season, and I actually kinda liked him on this season.

Me too. I think he's a lot less likely to kiss Brad and Tori's ***** than Dunbar which is probably why he got voted in twice. If I had to bet, from what I saw in the preview, I'd guess that after the first vote to send Tori in (Brad and Tori for Paula and Dunbar Paula and Tyler for Tori) Dunbar flops over to the Brad Tori side. I'd guess they promised him a spot in the final if he doesn't send Tori in again. TJ was right about no team unity. Johnny and Theresa probably volunteer for their Gulag since Diesel and Emily did for this last one.
After this challenge I never want to hear Brad talk about himself as the nice guy again. If he comes back I think he'll be public enemy number 1 for a lot of people.

This does sound pretty logical and I can definitely see it happening this way. Which is probably why Paula talks to Dunbar about feeling betrayed by him. I do think Dunbar would be the easier target to sway than Tyler. Dunbar has been on Brad's heels every step of the way, and to him, it might be more of a benefit having Tori and Brad in the finals with him than having Tyler and Paula.
Then again, it's Paula's own fault for trusting Dunbar of all people. Tyler already said he would have been up for a sway [U]against[/U] Brad/Tori but Paula and Dunbar were already their mindless followers that it couldn't be organized.
OK guys, question here. Does anyone besides me think bringing in CT and Tina is a kinda cheap thing to do no matter who is in that particular elimination ? Like, I'm not saying Johnny would 100 % beat Tyler or Theresa would 100 % beat Tori or vice versa. But to bring in somebody else to basically take out a person that someone should beat for themselves (Even though I understand Tyler and Tori both get credit for the win) is messed up I think. I know it's Gulag based on time (who can last the longest vs. CT and Tina), but it's pretty obvious whoever goes second is going to have a huge advantage.
It is going to be fun and entertaining to watch CT beat Johnny like a redheaded step child and Tina get worked over by the other two girls regardless though.
