A couple new articles with interviews on the show today:

Felt bad for Ryan when they did that name 3 good things, because I and seemed as if every guy within hearing distance of the "game" knew that Jessica was going to give him insults or backhanded compliments which she did one of both. The guy's faces changed when the name 3 good things was brought up. It won't have gone down that way if that was me standing there because I would have landed the first blow.
I feel as only bad can come from that name 3 good things about a person game.
Congratulations on the cast winning the million $$$$!
But I did promise to do some post-analysis, and I've zeroed back in on what was the strangest / most suspicious occurrence.
In Matchup 7, John and Brittany were defaulted together (last pair remaining). They got 7 lights in this matchup.
In Matchup 8, Brittany was second to last pick and had only Chris S (been with in Matchup 6) and Joey (been with in Matchup 2) to choose from. After picking Joey, she says to the camera:
[B]“Adam was still my #1 choice, but I’m choosing Joey. Because, we were matched up last week and we got 7 out of 10. It’s a little freaky!”[/B]
Now we know her statement is false. She was with John, not Joey in the Matchup with 7 lights. So how do we explain this statement?
My theory:
Brittany isn't an idiot. This statement didn't come out of the blue, and she didn't forget who she'd been with just a few days earlier in the prior matchup. Therefore, the only explanation I can come up with is that production filmed 1 or more alternate Matchups which never aired.
So for instance, perhaps production filmed 2 different Matchup 7s, and in each the group got 7 lights. That way the editors would be able to choose which storylines to go with, and which couples would progress faster. Perhaps they did this same thing every week. Or maybe they only did it in the second half of the show. And then production asked the cast members to make confessional statements explaining their picks in each of these matchups.
In any case, production got caught here because they aired the wrong statement from Brittany. This statement from Brittany during Matchup 8 was intended to air only with the other Matchup 7 in which Brittany actually had been paired with Joey.
Looks like 45 of the 100 possible pairings were attempted during the matchups.
One guy had 2 partners, one had 3 partners, two had 4 partners, four had 5 partners, and two had 6 partners.
That's a lot of different pairings for everyone to attempt before suddenly being able to piece everything together at the end.
Suppose we'll never know for sure if the cast had additional help from production beyond the truth booths and matchup lights, but I still think without any additional help the math makes it pretty difficult to win.
You know Mark you could answer the question instead of coming here with Asad only on Tuesdays and ignoring the audience here. Also spamming the board with "possibilities" got old fast.

Dre was married while he was on the show. Also it was a $1,000,000 annuity or you could accept the lump sum payout (some contestant said it on Twitter). So it was only about $25,000 each.
As I said earlier it was in the credits at end of each episode that it was a 30 year annuity or equivalent lump sum payment.
Of course to actually read any of the credits these days you need to tape and play in slow motion. :tennis:

Thanks! :p
[QUOTE=timster3;399135]Did they ever show Ashleigh and Jon speak on the show? I was shocked when they got paired up..[/QUOTE]
LOL. This show is so dumb especially the finale. I like the premise and some of the episodes but really they aren't getting all that money. It'll be split most likely. :(

This doesn't completely answer my question though. Who was engaged. I'm sure they most likely already made tweets, FB post, or instagram's about it lol.
That was a pretty good reunion, The Challenge should learn how to host reunions because I felt everyone got to speak and we got to understand everything. The host did a great job.
And UGH I was disappointed Dylan and Colysia aren't together anymore :( I thought they were going to be the engaged couple. I was about to turn it off but Ethan and Amber are the 2nd best couple so i'm happy for them < 3 I loved how shocked Amber was.
And the poor blonde girl who was matched with Chris (I always forget her name) lol
Coleysia was way more into Dillan than he was into her. A girl I watched it with said it awhile back before they were a perfect match. It was painfully obvious when they arrived at the honeymoon suite.
Dumbest part of the reunion was when Paige was getting a phone to show Shanley that Chris wanted nude pictures. If you send a guy a bikini or lingerie photo every guy's next response is what about a nude photo. I could have told Shanley that.
Adam was the king of the house when it came to girls we found out (Kayla was the queen but we already knew that). Glad Shanley brought him down a peg by saying she didn't find him attractive.
Craziest person in the house goes to Brittany. You talk to your crush's family when he doesn't want you to talk to them. She doesn't live in the same state as the family and didn't know them before the show. That is just crazy.
Most likely to end up with an STD is Dre. We already now know he has Ashley, Simone, and his ex-wife all still banging him. Add in all the girls who he is currently sleeping with who did not appear on TV.
Chris Scali hated being there and how he was portrayed, but likes the fame.
Most invisible cast mate goes to Joey. If you can tell me three things about Joey without looking at his bio you pay way too much attention to the show.
Castmate with most unreasonable expectations with what she brings to the table is Jessica. For the guys it goes to Dillan.

Yup, the host was on point and had complete control of the cast. That said, they're all pretty young (newbies to so-called reality fame) and more likely to answer awkward questions than deflect. The Challenge crew includes some prima donnnas who will just refuse to reveal too much if pressed, and have the the power to do so.
But yes, thought the reunion was very entertaining (dare I say encouraged by the producers)!

-Uh, not exactly.
-Adam was no King He is the Jay of the house. Simply as that. And Shanley should keep her mouth shut.
-STD? That's a bit extreme and low of you to say. And last I check we bang girls not the other way around. Unless a ******* is involved. What are YOU doing yourself? II wouldn't wish that on my dog.

But, of course. LOL. Especially when it's MTV, USA or NBC.
I saw ethan diamond (I think that's his name) in my Instagram "explore" tab and the caption was something like "last night in Hawaii, first night with my phone" idk could be a coincidence but maybe he was there for like mentoring?? Since him and amber were together almost all season despite not knowing whether they were a match.

& they're the only couple that lasted.. :P
I think the first season is gonna be classic. Especially with them thinking, including the fans that Ryan was gay. And also for the fact that thirsty Dre lied.

The first season had an amazing cast, so it's gonna be bard to top it.
