[QUOTE=CherryPie;306163]Interesting. Any idea of what aspects of the challenge are going to change exactly?[/QUOTE]
I don't do spoilers. What you ask would constitute a spoiler. I simply expect an attempt to return to more fun and less effort to make the challenges look like an ESPN extreme event.

Could this possibly mean less BS rules like winner controlling everything including who goes in AND the order for the next mission? Because that to me is what's ruined the last 2 shows for me.
No!!! Boo to fun challenges. They always come across boring and stupid. Fun challenges play to a female audience IMO. I like the extreme competitive challenges.

+ Fun challenges has a bigger poll, bc the last seasons many people had been called but they refused it because of the extreme challenges BMP do nowadays.
+ Fun challenges allowes people with brain but no muscles to win the whole challenge, so you dont have to be an athlete to win one.
+ Fun challenges give a fresh air to the franchise, bc even smart and skinny guys/girls could control the game.

+fun challenges [I]could[/I] actually make the show more fun to watch (but I doubt it).
LOL. I support more fun challenges because I would rather see the show be more like RW, but I get that a lot of people are in it for the competition. MTV doesn't split the difference well. They should go one way or the other IMHO.
On the first page, I noticed a psych test thing. What is the point of that? Considering lots of people on these shows probably failed the psych test...or maybe that's the point of it? If you're too sane, you can't be on this show, lol?

In large part, it is the result of the changes in the Reality industry that began after 51 Mind's disaster with Brian Jenkins on Megan Hauserman's show. Fast forward to Tonya's suit and the insurance underwriters and attorneys have mandated a number of changes to indemnify the producers and networks and reduce their risks due to aberrant (unpredictable) personality types.

(I had to look that up) Oh, I remember now. His name was actually Ryan, BTW. But yeah, I could understand that now as to why they would do a psych test, don't want any would-be-murderers on on my tv, that's for sure.

Must the two be mutually exclusive?
It's neither one, actually. I just wanted to post Trishelle and Mallory's pics. Both are personal favorites of mine. I've known and worked with Trishelle several times since 2005, and, as a photographer, I've always admired Mallory's portfolio.
I think if Mallory and/or Trishelle were to appear on the next challenge they would be gone pretty early because the way it's looking this challenge is going to be predominantly the new school kids on this show and alot of them don't really know who those 2 are so for them to make it far they have to approach this challenge as reborn rookies.
I saw this o. Trishelle facebook

After a scary, stressful, and exhausting past 2 weeks things have finally turned around! Spending the long weekend at the Beau Rivage for poker, beach and pool and then leaving to go out of the country next week for vacation! Thank you guys for the prayers! It seriously worked :)

[QUOTE=GiggidyGoo90;306288]Ok so far 3 people announced they are "going on vacation" next week CJ, Chet, and now Trishelle. So what's up with that?[/QUOTE]
Keep counting. Three is an entirely inadequate number (i.e., there are several more who have said the same thing, and it was said last week.)
[QUOTE=V1man;306290]Keep counting. Three is an entirely inadequate number[/QUOTE]
My money is on Trishelle to win out of those three. :yes:
Monopoly money, that is.

Taking a look at the list of speculated, I wouldn't necessarily count those two out so early. The majority of the cast have either done one Challenge, or this is their first. Just because they're older, doesn't mean they'll be targeted. In fact, I can only see a few females that wont be intimidated by them.
I would like to see Trishelle or Mallory back on a challenge. I've never seen them on a challenge before, nor have I seen their original seasons, but I know they were popular when they were on the show, so I'd like to see them for myself. (Plus, they obviously aren't hard to look at.)
Does anyone have [i]any[/i] idea yet as to who's gonna be on the challenge? (I just registered on this forum yesterday, and no offense, don't really feel like reading all 70 pages in this thread, lol)

This thread is not about who WILL be on the challenge; it's all about "pointless speculation." It is the place where people who know nothing post everything and those who know post nothing, or some mixture of the two. The official thread will be posted soon. It's not revealed before the cast is on their way to wherever...

So I know I've speculated more than once on here that this will be a Battle of the Seasons 2 (with some fairly good reasons as to why I thought so, I might add!), but I've also kept an open mind in terms of other formats as I've read through the comments and speculated cast. BUT [B]if[/B] Mallory is in fact on (which would be rather out of the blue, despite her attractiveness), might that be so that CT - a fan and ratings-favorite - could then fit the format and be on as well? I had thought with a BOTSeasons CT would be out since the Paris girls haven't been heard from in forever, but this new speculation definitely makes me think otherwise. And to address the comment above, if Mallory were in fact on and CT was in fact her partner, I doubt she'd be out quite so early!

If it is Battle of the Seasons, the speculations show that there would be four on a team. Two guys, two girls.
Im leaving on a jet plane don't know when I'll be back again.. Oh babe I hate to go..

I put up Mal's pic because I think she is hot, not because I expect her to be on the challenge. I was messing with people because of the thread title!!!! (Still, it would be nice to have some eye candy on the challenge)
Hopefully to put this little disaster to rest, here is a tweet from her @ about 1 AM. She is starting a juice cleanse tomorrow, not something one does in prep for boarding an airplane out of the country.

I was on instigram and I saw where somebody told camila good luck on the challenge... Iam sure you'll make it far as you stay somewhat cool...) I mean you absolutely kick-***. Now I don't know how to post an instigram pic but go to camila section She is in a pic of her with straw in her ears she is wearing red nail polish

Sorry to set the alarms, V1Man! I actually thought she may be on based on the post that indicated CJ was following her, which I still think is odd given how she hasn't done anything MTV-related in a while and they are quite different in age. Didn't mean to do what you hate and jump to conclusions on something you randomly said! Sorry again!
I don't think Mal not being on negates it being a Battle of the Seasons 2, given that the only reason I had to think CT would be on was ratings-purposes, but I appreciate the clarification, of course. As for there [B]possibly [/B]being more than 2 from a season (this cast is still only speculated, based on loose twitter findings, as I so aptly demonstrated above :)), I don't see why there can't be more than 1 team from each season. I would imagine they would have difficulty getting 14-15 seasons (even with FM) repped at this point, so it is entirely possible they were forced to make more teams out of less seasons. It could also be a team challenge with a Seasons 1-whatever vs. Seasons whatever-27, but I still think speculated cast (Mallory aside!) speaks more to a pairs challenge.

Actually I dont think any of those are positive things at all.
1) If there are people that dont want to do challenges because they are too intimidated to hang over water or run 5 miles in the cold....then I dont want them on the challenge. There are people like Casey, Mike from LV, Naomi, Priscilla, Katie, and Shauvon who have found the "courage" to get out and do some of these "extreme" challenges...if you dont have as much courage or determination as them...then who the **** would want to see them do a challenge?
2)The title of the show is called "The Challenge" which to me means pushing yourself physically and mentally. The show is meant to be challenging, if you take away that aspect you might as well call it "The Crapshoot" if anybody that can walk has a chance at winning the game. No thanks.
3)I think there is a good chunk of people, myself and my friends included, that do not watch the real world but do watch the challenges. The Real World is caught up too much in the "fun" ridiculously stupid drama and becomes monotonous, whereas the challenges are geared towards physical athletic ability competitiveness. Like someone said, making this geared to a more "fun" challenge type is just like the real world but voting people off. I personally dont want to see people jumping rope in elimination rounds, or running around with chicken suits, or people trying to get juice out of a grapefruit. That is just silly stuff and isnt entertaining to watch....coming from a competitive athletic person that is.
I think MTV will be balancing out the fun and the extreme challenges this time....they kind of have to because if they completely get rid of the competitive aspect then this show could flop.
What they need to do is keep the extreme challenges, and just have more diverse casts instead of casting the same people evertime. And that would be a simple fix, just have smaller casts. Or they could just cast more athletic people for the Real World.

1) You have absolutly right, but if the challenges are too extreme and almost nobody wants to do these, then BMP has almost no choice but to cast the regulars that people hate. And let's take someone who have took the courage, but if he/she experienced once and he/she is afraid of doing another, then the only choice for BMP is they have to cast people who arent afraid and these people are usually the regulars...
2) Of course, but you have to produce a show for people that also allowes the "weak body" people to shine physically and mentally. So that the regular viewers thinks, hey I can do that too so lets go to the casting etc. And if only the strongest can win a challenge, then BMP is yet again limited with the cast, because all the weak players declined before they even try it. Did I already use the sentence with the regulars???
3) No matter what type the challenges are going to be. "The Challenge" will always be a reality tv show...so you have to take the reality aspects of life and you can't just do a sport show and ignore the rest. If you look a these past challenges, the daily challenge itself was like 1/3 + (5 minutes er) of an episode all the rest was filled with drama/dance/fun stuff etc. Only the final episode is filled with the acual challenge...
The Challenge is still interesting because they are so many people who has to live with eachother and not just 6,7,8, but 20-30.
But I totally agree with you, BMP has to find the balance, but BMP should also make the challenge less heroesque where also the "not the big guys with endurance" can win one. I think that would make the show unpredictable ergo more interesting to watch.
P.S: I think Trey is in, because he gave (will give) Vevmo something to speculate about. What did you do with him? Why this anger?
