[QUOTE=Challenge 17;364057]I agree I hate snapper I only like physical eliminations[/QUOTE]
How is that not a physical elimination? You have to [U]physically[/U] hit your opponent with a rod/stick! There is also a strong teamwork component which I like. The one Zach/Trey lost in wasn't a team thing at all... they had to alternate but couldn't affect what the other was doing (at least they weren't supposed to, hence the DQ).
Eliminations where you have to put your hands on other competitors is barbaric, and would get old pretty quickly. Yup, dude was bigger than other dude.. GG bro. At least with stuff like Snapper any team can win in theory. I like games that on paper, have a 50% chance to eliminate dbags like JB/Frank if they are unlucky enough to catch that night.

Hands on physical eliminations are the best, some of the best challenge moments are from physical eliminations they will never get old. Obviously no one wants to see lopsided physical eliminations, but when teams or individuals are evenly matched its great tv. Snapper is just plain dumb, im all for elimination rounds where anyone can win, but come up with a better game. Kinda like the game played on seasons were they had to tie knots with the rope or even breaking on throughh this season are good.
Bigger doesn't mean a win all the time **** look at cj vs Zach, cj won Three times
Eric is bigger then Brad but brad beat him in a physical elimination
Tyrie is bigger then Derek but he lost
Sorry if this has been posted already, but can someone post the name of two songs in this episode:
1. The dubstep song during the snapper elimination game.
2. The song when Nany started crying after she lost.
[QUOTE=Challenge 17;364254]If Aneesa and Diem won that challenge, do you think Cara and Cooke could have beaten Camilla and Jemmye?[/QUOTE]
Eh. It's not a Challenge that caters to any real skill besides communication with your partner. It could still be up in the air. However, Jemmye/Camila would've been a much harder team to beat.
As much as i dislike frank and think he constsntly contradicts himself and is an idiot.... He still is well rounded and a good competitor .. He did more to me than zach did on seasons so i respect his ability
[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;364252]The afterbuzz episode was great for this episode. Nehemiah is ******* hilarious![/QUOTE]
He should seriously be casted on more challenges... But then again if he is casted they probably wouldn't show him anyway. They never do.
I didn't know he was the last black guy to win though. That's interesting.

I don't think Johnny would have thrown Camila/Jemmye in over Nany/Jonna. I think Frank was just saying that because at the end of the day Johnny and Camila still have been working together and if he threw them in and they won then they would have been coming after them and sided with the rookies. Johnny is smarter than that.
I personally wish there was some physical part to each elimination...even if some have more communication or mental parts than physical parts, it would just be more entertaining week to week.
Eh I don't see the problem with that particular elimination round. I mean every Jungle can't be Balls to the Wall action. This isn't a sporting competition(although some people like to think it is.)
I like ones that require more effort Going up from rivals one i liked because it was about strength and I liked rail slide from rivals one because it was physical and a good teamwork one

Nehemiah's great. Send him on one more Challenge and try not to paint him as the weird spiritual guy (that always irked me).
I like this elimination round, but I wonder if it would be better if nobody talked and the opponents had to solely rely on hearing the bells. Or, if the "audience" of fellow challengers weren't allowed to talk, only the four people competing. I mean, the bells are there but how well are they heard over the shouting?

Adding more of a physical element is not the same thing as "balls to the wall action." I specifically said adding more of a physical part to each elimination which does not mean a hall brawl style elimination. This could mean something involving your endurance, quickness, speed, strength, or climbing ability that gets mixed in with the elimination. This challenge may test all of your abilities but it is a physical challenge that should involve strength and endurance above everything else because that is what your tested on above everything else in a final. I do not want to see 2 noodles in the final who I know are coming in last, but made it there because they strategically can swing a stick blind folded better. Why did we like the duel so much? Because most of the eliminations involved some form of physical exertion which obviously complimented the every man/woman for themselves theory.

Exactly. MOST of them did. Remember I can? There has always been challenges and elimination rounds similar to this and Frankly this particular round may not have an endurance or strength element to it but it involves communication. Something you need to have as any kind of team. Strength, ability, and endurance is important but if you can't communicate and work together as a team then none of it matters. It's especially matters in the final challenge. You need to communicate and work with your partner and I think this particular Jungle emphasizes that.
You would need to work with your partner for a jungle like rail slide where they have to move it TOGETHER and required a lot of team work and communication
Or hands on that was one that I liked BC it requires communication and team work

I gotta see those again. I don't remember those.

You actually make some really good points...I guess I just feel while communication is emphasized in this elimination it really just ends with two blind folded people swinging at the same time. I would rather see the blind folded person be directed through an obstacle course where it doesn't end with both teammates shouting swing your stick.

That's actually a good Idea. It would put more emphases on the Communication aspect and I feel like it would take out a lot of the luck factor involved in that Jungle.
