Tyrie is soooo hot now! Actually can't believe it, he is a different person. I guess the bacon comment got to him haha.
I think when it comes to Tonya she was always on a team with the strongest women. F.E. The Inferno 2, I mean Veronica, Tina & Rachel...and then Tonya. out of the 3 Tonya maybe was the weakest. But she did better than the 3 of them or at least 2 of them on a number of missions. She kicked *** on Gauntlet 1 & only was sent home because of an injury as well as in BOTS1. Tonya's prime was Freshmeat & Inferno 3 & possibly Ruins. Everyones talked of Tonya's athleticism including Coral, Evelyn & Susie. She is easily one of the best, NOT as great as Rachel, Evelyn & Laurel. But i say she's on a level with Coral, Susie & Veronica at her best.
[QUOTE=V1man;292631]
Evelyn knows who JEK are. She knows what they have done. I'm not at all surprised at her fundamental disdain for them. I agree with her, and have come to wonder what to think of cast members who can look at them and set aside their reprehensible behaviors, electing to align with them.

Yeah whats really shocking to me is how others can just over look what some of these people do but have no problem saying someone else is a piece of **** for doing the same if not less. And I'm not just talking about Derrick, I remember Adam King being so proud that these ****** bags are his friends but would bad mouth others, even the Jenn thing he had no problem with Jenn after the show (prior to ep 6 or 7?) even though she hit Cara Maria and treated her like ****.
I just watched the Tyrie/Jasmin video and Jasmins all like if I had known he was my partner then I wouldn't have come. Really did she really not know? Come on, for sure at least some of them knew, why didnt she ask Wes, he seemed to know the format for the last one, and I'm sure the people who were back ups knew the format. And even before dropping Adam/Nany we kind of figured out it was a couples thing just by who was going, so I dont know if they're saying that just to make their lovers at home feel better or if they really didnt know. Maybe they knew it was couples something but not pairs, but then again MTV isnt that creative, I think we were just over analyzing, hoping that it would be some crazy complicated format.

They are all well liked castmembers, apart from CT. Although, he was pretty popular from the Inferno to the Gauntlet 3.
[QUOTE=r3iKo;292661]All of those guys you named above, with the exception of Evan, have zero social/strategical game.[/QUOTE]
I disagree with this. Most of those people made it to the end or far on every challenge they've been on, with several of them never being sent into an elimination round for some challenges. That seems like a good social game to me. Plus, they were all (mostly) well-liked on their seasons and good competitors, so I'd say they all have a good social game. They may not play up the alliance/manipulative angle, but definitely know how to play the game socially IMO. If anything, being able to make it to the end simply for being well-liked is a true example of a good social game.

From looking at the list before the cast departed, I knew it was going to have some sort of couples theme. However, maybe Jasmine thought that the partner format had been a bit played out over the last few seasons and they would be on opposite teams. There is no way of knowing what the format is.

I've learned that Diem also didn't believe it would be partners. I think that means that she asked BMP and either they obfuscated in reply or didn't answer her question.
Haha, you have to love the comments on the videos. These are the ones for Sarah and Vinny's video:

Hey do you guys see that twitter exes preview? They need 5k to show us a 12 minute preview of ep 1. I dont really get it, do we have to reply to Tj's tweets and hash tag exes? Or can I just tweet #exes #exes#exes over and over again? 5k isnt that much, get to it people!

They say it just needs the hashtag
[QUOTE=awalllll;292929]soo, no preview? :( it was one of the top trending topics...[/QUOTE]
We have until Jan 25th, wpuldnt be surprised if they didnt hit 5k already, they should be able to do it by Jan 25. The awesome thing is that some of the people are not even talking about the show but are just tweeting about their exes haha, much easier to get exes trending then say a word like rivals.
MTV.com has an article about RW cast members they wish would have done a challenge.
Their list:
Cara (RW Chicago)
Christina (RW Paris)
Scott (RW Brooklyn)
Andrew (RW DC)
Ashley (RW DC)
Entire cast of RW New Orleans 2
I kind of enjoy that MTV.com is doing these little articles, despite the fact that most of them are plagued with the newer seasons. It's still a nice little memory to see people like Cara and Christina pop up on the site. I always loved Christina and wanted her to do a challenge. Cara kind of sucked, but bonus points to the article for mentioning her "Get my ******* name right, Tonya!" quote. Criminally underrated, indeed. I always preferred Keri. She fell off the face of the earth, but ****it I loved her.
Obviously besides those two, there's still time for the rest of these people to do a challenge. However, it kind of reminds me of something I haven't been loving about most recent challenges. I feel like a lot of the challenges seem to almost be exclusively meant for a small number of individuals. Like, for instance, if you never had a rival or hookup, you were automatically DQed from competing in the last two challenges. I guess I just feel like nowadays it's a lot harder for the more low-key RW/RR cast members to get cast on a challenge, whereas back in the day there was an opportunity for literally anybody, no matter how "boring" they may have been (Jeremy anyone?). I know it's kind of an odd thing to want more of, but I'd like to see less obvious cast members on the challenges, like say McKenzie or DC Mike. Does any of this make sense? I'm kind of rambling..
NOTE: I actually don't think Mike or McKenzie were boring, but they don't exactly stand out amongst some of the more dramatic people in recent seasons. Plus, they're two of my favorites in recent years.

Cutthroat and Ruins were both big casts. I think Rivals was a great idea as well as Exes, so i don't mind them being limited. But i think a Duel will be big competition for cast members to get casted. More so than Rivals and Exes.

Yeah. I actually forgot about Cutthroat and then remembered after I wrote it haha. And I've actually enjoyed these last two casts (as well as Cutthroat's) so I'm not too upset about it or anything. Maybe I'm just already sick of all the Fresh Meat 2 people.

I agree, but at least they're thinning out. We only have Cara Maria, Vinny, and Mandi on this one. Minus Camilla and Diem, everyone else is Real World and Road Rules :)
Vinny, Sarah, Jasmine, Tyrie, Nate, Priscilla, Dustin, Heather, Mark, and Robin's threads have all been updated in the first post with their pre-game couple interviews from MTV.

Not sure if it is something you can control this but could you turn the autoplay off?
I'm unsure if this post will be deleted. I'm just going to go ahead and post my comment anyway. If you want to be spoiler-free please avoid Wiki, there are some really dumb people that will post spoilers on it. I'm royally ****** that I accidentally stumbled onto some info I did not want to know about the upcoming challenge, so avoid it... even though if it may not be true.

It probably isn't true at all. If it had a winner it definitely isn't because Molds hasn't even found that out yet. Any moron can edit wikipedia and not have it changed for a while.

Oh, okay. You just haven't updated those of us without your ability to hack production's cameras.
I haven't listened to any of Derrick's podcasts recently. Has he asked Evan and Kenny about the Tonya thing since he has had them on since that was made public?

Nope...he probably knows not to. Someone linked an interview that some radio show in upstate NY did with Heather from Vegas and they did one with Kenny also. They actually asked him about it and he said that even if he wanted to comment on it he couldn't.

Yeah, but if I were interviewing I would still ask the question even if I knew they wouldn't comment so it wouldn't like I was doing a fluff piece on behalf of MTV.
On an unrelated note, for all those complaining about the video quality, here is a total geek article that perhaps only V1man really could understand the implications of: [url=http://magazine.creativecow.net/article/real-world-editing]Real World Editing: From Avid to FCP and Back Again - Creative COW[/url]
