By who? She hasn't even had a chance to interact with most of them?

But that's not breaking news, CT was targeted before the challenge started every challenge when any member of jek or Wes was on it to get rid of him at all costs..IF you win, you can still make it far. She obviously lost an elimination or got dq'ed..Laurel disliking Nia before it started was basically going to put Nia in a horrible spot from the get go. I am sure that alliance went against her right away and who knows if Nia cared or not..SO her acting like she didn't know who laurel was even though a few mods have said she clearly knew who she was, if that was her downfall before the challenge, that's her own fault
I kind of wish she made it far honestly just to see how it all went down

If you're good it shouldn't matter. Wes carrying Casey the entire season comes to mind. Probably the most impressive showing by a rookie.
Obviously, the cast saw Nia's performance on Portland and at the Reunion. Going after Coral to correct her did not win any points with the cast. Nia's own actions are what put her in her position without her interacting with most of the cast.
[QUOTE=JustinS76;379192]She comes off really fake to me. I think shes very good looking and if that is indeed her personality then she is great. I don't know though, she just seems like shes putting on an act.[/QUOTE]
She seems to lack confidence which is why she might seem fake.

It's just weird because so many people come off horribly on their seasons, Frank, Zach, Adam R, but still aren't targeted right away.

Adam R did not get much chance to get targeted. His first Challenge he punched Ty then went home and became too much of an insurance liability. Frank probably was targeted somewhat but won enough early missions take over BOTSeasons 2. I can only guess with Zach that he was viewed as coming off horribly because people were probably blaming his reactions on Frank.
Nia didn't have to interact with anyone to be targeted, everyone saw her behavior on RW
and anyone who is hyped up to be a good challenge competitor based off of the Real World has undeserved hype IMO
[QUOTE=WesDuel;379201]I never understood the hype about Nia. "She was a college athlete" and I think we all know that means jack ****. I remember from RW Portland when they went skiing/snowboarding and she was so exhausted/lazy that before they even strapped up she said "Where's the bar? I need a cigarette" Not to mention she showed how lazy she was when she decided to stop going to work... She got a lot of undeserved hype IMO. "College athlete"[/QUOTE]
Well, Nia also got a lot hype from other cast members saying she was gonna be Laurel's equal. I know at least Diem said that. If you check out her Twitter, she looks like she is in shape. But we won't truely know until the show. Sometimes people who look athletic on their season end up being not so I.E. (Jamie, Katelynn, Colie, Jenn, Devyn) and some people who don't look athletic on their season actually surprise people I.E. (Robin, Ruthie, Sarah, Paula)

Especially when it comes to guys. Dunbar easily comes to mind. Looks like hes in shape but tends to be bad in challenges.

I think it was Mark Long who said that Dunbar is good for lots of upper body strength and running in a straight line but don't ask him to do anything needing agility or lots of hand eye coordination
if you want to talk about people who seem to be in great shape or have 'show muscles' but suck at challenges theres a long list
david new orleans
laterrian road rules
danny from gauntlet 2
danny from Austin
tyrie
trey
danimal
dave Hollywood
nick brown
JD
Dunbar
Katelynn
Colie
Rachel (Austin)
Sam
I'm **** at everyone here who was so sure the that great and powerful Nia would make it to the end of this challenge, just because she was a collegiate athlete.
[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;379194]She got 2nd on 3 out of her 6 challenges, she's only done well when given good to great partners who can carry/motivate her. Keep in mind I like her and am rooting for her to finally get a win, but still...[/QUOTE]
She's like the opposite of Sarah. Cara only does well with a partner who will carry here to the finals. Sarah does well when she is working by herself.
[QUOTE=wutzrenzi;379067]What's the situation with Camila? I never understood why her name was brought a few pages back with EZ. Can someone quickly explain that.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=proceed;379068]She was spotted in miami.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=RobbioRobbio;379069]someone on twitter said they saw Camila in Miami and she handed them a flyer at a bar[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=PinkRose;379070]Not at a bar, but at the street in front of camila's business in Miami.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=RobbioRobbio;379075]im also wondering if the cast list is actually correct and maybe Easy quit or got kicked off immediately, or they switched things up and had some type of elimination off the bat. If that's the case and if Camila was actually eliminated then it would add up with 3 guys and 3 girls being eliminated, 2 of them vets and 4 of them rookies:
1. Easy
2. Camila
3. Dustin
4. Jemmye
5. Frank
6. Nia[/QUOTE]
Camila is still in Uruguay.The sighting was BS.
Also, [U]Easy[/U] [B]was never part of this cast[/B]. I am sure molds will update the cast sooner or later.
[QUOTE=PinkRose;379236]I am still surprised the bigges drama starter and attetion wh*res are goint tobe only 1-3 episodes lol (Jemmye,Frank and Nia)[/QUOTE]
Emilee's still there, unless she was thr second female sent home though...
Do we even have any proof that Nia was very disliked? We know she was cool with Devyn, Latoya, Jemmye, and Jordan at the very least. It seems pretty petty imo to target someone based on their actions on RW or any other season of reality tv. As if some of these people have been amazing people in seasons past (CT, Johnny, Laurel, Frank, Zach, Johnny R). Keep in mind I actually like most of those people, too.
Why are people surprised we had high hopws for Nia? That'd be the case with most college athletes, not to mention she was hitting the gym quite a bit before leaving. You can all despise her, but don't act like we were crazy for expecting Nia to be good, especially with that terrible rookie female side.

Exactly everyone's just trying to sound cool by saying those who said she would be good were wrong. Everyone should have expected a college athlete to be at least a solid athlete on the challenge. Plus no one even knows how she lost could have been taken out by someone strong or even a puzzle.

I don't think molds care about it anymore...Yay! for Camila still being, I will be happy if Camila/Nany/Jonna/Laurel/Jordan/Cohutta make it to the end.

If Frank, and Dustin are out already(two of the strongest players), I don't really take this elimination as a reflection of Nia's athletic abilities.
[QUOTE=proceed;379251]If Frank, and Dustin are out already(two of the strongest players), I don't really take this elimination as a reflection of Nia's athletic abilities.[/QUOTE]
I still don't believe Dustin and Frank are two of the strongest. Probably 3rd & 4th on the Rookies team behind Zach and Jordan. I have no idea where Johnny and Swift fall into things and Cohutta isn't stronger but he is a strong competitor IMO
CT, Leroy, Ty, Brandon and Johnny are all stronger than those 2 IMO as well
We have quite a few **** stirrers eliminated already. Maybe the final will just be Chet making subtle fat jokes to Devyn while she lies on a pool diving board in full hair and makeup. I for one, Wouldn't hate it if The Challenge took a dadaist direction this season

Jordan, Frank, and Dustin are equals imo, good all around competitors. What has Leroy done to justify that he is better than dustin/frank? If you're speaking on pure strenght then yea Leroy, Ct, Ty, and johnny would be clear favorites over Dustin/Frank. Id pick dustin/frank in a physical elimination over chet/brandon.
I hope the vets don't try to get rid of Jasmine. She's an extra mind for puzzles. You never know she might know one of the ones they face, and I have no idea what her endurance is like but I mean, I could carry her through a final, so CT could on crutches.
It's really the only chance I have of seeing her win one.

And how useful would she be? Only thing i can remember from her in anything logic was her not knowing the capital of England...
