Beth on The Inferno II Jo on The Gauntlet 2 Tina on The Duel Dave on The Island Shauvon on The Ruins Vinny on Battle of the Exes Dustin on Battle of the Exes Trishelle on Rivals II[/QUOTE] I would replace Beth with Aneesa, Katie, Ayanna, or Belou Jo with Belou, Lori, Sophia, or Kendal Tina with Aviv Dave with Will Gilbert Shauvon with Jenn, Ashli, Ruthie, or Robin Vinny/Dustin with Nehemiah, Dan Walsh, Noor, CJ, or any male from DC that isn't Ty Trishelle with Averey/Joi/Nia, LaToya/Laura, Priscilla/Ashley K, Ashlee, Callie/Ashley L/Erika, or Ayiiia

[QUOTE=El Scorcho;413456]The point was to choose one person to replace the person that left prematurely.[/QUOTE] I thought that's what Youssarian did

[QUOTE=kvm1977;413457]I thought that's what Youssarian did[/QUOTE] Yeah, that's what I did... lol. I just couldn't decide on one person.

[QUOTE=kvm1977;413457]I thought that's what Youssarian did[/QUOTE] I don't know what your reading but what I read was them giving a list of 3-4 people for each replacement.

What if Darrell was Rachel's partner on Exes instead of Aneesa? Would Johnny still have been that aggressive with his grudge on Rachel if she had a stronger partner? Johnny probably wouldn't have thrown her in with every opportunity if she had Darrell since they would have been a much bigger threat to win power couple and return the favor if Johnny ever did throw them in. There really wasn't too big of a threat for that to happen with Aneesa since she didn't perform as well on most of the missions. I'm pretty sure Johnny would have known not to mess with her if it was Darrell & Rachel instead of Aneesa & Rachel especially considering there probably weren't any teams that season that could have beat Darrell & Rachel in an elimination round.

[QUOTE=auldx;413968]I thought Darrell and Johnny were friends as well.[/QUOTE] Probably. He seems to be everybody's friend on these things.

Here's one: WHAT IF, jordan had infact won against bananas?

If CT & Diem had just put in Ty & Emily vs Johnny & Paula, they would have definitely won Exes. What a bonehead decision they made.

[QUOTE=toenails;415177]If CT & Diem had just put in Ty & Emily vs Johnny & Paula, they would have definitely won Exes. What a bonehead decision they made.[/QUOTE] not necessarily. Who knows if Johnny & Camila*** would have won against Ty and Emily?

[QUOTE=toenails;415177]If CT & Diem had just put in Ty & Emily vs Johnny & Paula, they would have definitely won Exes. What a bonehead decision they made.[/QUOTE] Well it would depend on the coin toss because Johnny would probably beat TY and Emily would beat Camila

[QUOTE=Youssarian;413575]I said "blank, blank, OR blank". I couldn't decide on one person. I wasn't replacing the departed player with three or four people...[/QUOTE] Right

[QUOTE=auldx;415186]not necessarily. Who knows if Johnny & Camila*** would have won against Ty and Emily?[/QUOTE] No chance...not in X Battle I respect Bananas as a competitor and don't respect Ty but I think Ty beat him Emily crushes Camila

What if... Abram didn't need/want/pleaded to leave The Island and Bananas was eliminated by the public vote in his place?

[QUOTE=LHarkins;415218]What if... Abram didn't need/want/pleaded to leave The Island and Bananas was eliminated by the public vote in his place?[/QUOTE] The Ruins changes greatly

[QUOTE=LHarkins;415218]What if... Abram didn't need/want/pleaded to leave The Island and Bananas was eliminated by the public vote in his place?[/QUOTE] Then we could've seen bananas on the Duel 2 and like KVM said the Ruins would have been a bit more interesting with Bananas on the challengers side.

[QUOTE=melm3;415230]Then we could've seen bananas on the Duel 2 and like KVM said the Ruins would have been a bit more interesting with Bananas on the challengers side.[/QUOTE] Why does Bananas losing on The Island mean we see him on The Duel 2?

[QUOTE=alaskak94;415233]Why does Bananas losing on The Island mean we see him on The Duel 2?[/QUOTE] There was a chance that we'd see him because Bananas was a major challenge regular by that time, like Paula, so it wouldn't be surprising if a spot was saved for him. Plus if you noticed none of the Island winners(Kenny, Evelyn, and Derrick) were on the Duel 2.

[QUOTE=melm3;415240] Plus if you noticed none of the Island winners(Kenny, Evelyn, and Derrick) were on the Duel 2.[/QUOTE] Which in itself (along with Landon's questionable elimination) led to Evan winning that season, leading to all of JEK winning a season just in time for The Ruins. So we could have seen a very interesting Ruins with Kenny and Derrick on the winners and Bananas and Evan on the challengers.

What if instead of smarty pants, pinata pit was the first individual mission on free agents, who would win and who do you guys think would be last?

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;415258]What if instead of smarty pants, pinata pit was the first individual mission on free agents, who would win and who do you guys think would be last?[/QUOTE] Laurel and Aneesa would have been first for the girls, maybe Camilla would have caused an upset, Deyvn would have lost. Preston would have lost for the guys and I think it would be Zach taking it for the guys just because I think he's got more speed than CT or Bananas.

What if Veronica was allowed to choose her opponent in episode 7 of The Ruins and chose Sarah like she wanted and wasn't forced to go against Kellyanne? Would she have won and kept herself in the game? It's no guarantee, but I certainly believe her chances would have been better against a 1st time rookie version of Sarah than they were in facing Kellyanne.

Johanna and Susie were going to throw Veronica in every single time because the 3 of them were the only Champion women remaining. Veronica was screwed on that Challenge no matter what.

Here's another what if scenario for Veronica, this one from The Gauntlet. What if Veronica didn't win the lifesaver on the final mission of The Gauntlet? It seemed as if she was a popular choice to be voted into the last gauntlet before the final among a lot of the higher ups on the Road Rules team (Theo V, Adam, etc.), so I assume she would have gone in if she didn't win the lifesaver. Would she have been able to defeat Theo G. in that final elimination like Cara did?
