The Challenge: Generic Thread

[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;435024]Okay. I'm not 100% about it but based on the original list on the speculation thread and the activity of certain cast members I feel its about 75% correct. I'll pm it.[/QUOTE] I'd like to see the list too please!

Livewitpeace, I just sent you a PM of my guesses.

[QUOTE=riggins;435028]I'd like to see the list too please![/QUOTE] I'd also be interested in seeing the list.

I've seen Laurel tweet Susie a few times about both of them having a perfect elimination record lol. Maybe they bonded over that.

[QUOTE=JEKFAN;434966]What annoys me is when Abe & Sarah got sick during the Cutthroat final, TJ said you all can keep going and the grey team could have won it without them but on the gaunlet 3 they couldn't have won it without Eric. I know BMP does shady things because it is a tv show and it isn't all fair but still they need to be consistent.[/QUOTE] they probably did that because they learned from their mistakes in G3

[QUOTE=LurkerNoMore;435009]Is Susie in NY? [B]Could she be getting challenge testing done[/B]? [/QUOTE] i'm new to these boards, can you explain what challenge testing means?

[QUOTE=Lola88;435000]Laurel probably can't take time off for her job again this early. He is probably crossing his fingers for Sarah instead of Nia[/QUOTE] He'll probably get Nia because it makes it more interesting. However, I can also see them using him to help finally get Sarah that Challenge win.

[QUOTE=peachytay;435038]i'm new to these boards, can you explain what challenge testing means? [/QUOTE] Cast members need to do psychological evaluations and STD tests, and perhaps other things as well, in order to be cast on the Challenge, at least since Battle of the Exes.

[QUOTE=WittyWrath;435039]He'll probably get Nia because it makes it more interesting. However, I can also see them using him to help finally get Sarah that Challenge win.[/QUOTE] I wish I could be there to see their reaction to being "exes" haha.

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;435041]I wish I could be there to see their reaction to being "exes" haha.[/QUOTE] In the end Nia and Sarah both lose because one will be stuck with Jordan's ego. :highly_amused:

Are people big on Sarah here? I feel like she's a fan favorite but I would be ok with her never getting a win. Her bad luck streak is kind of funny to me. I liked her before, but the way she smirked in Jonna's face about being able to beat her in anything on Rivals, then getting beat by Jonna in a PUZZLE made me not like her as much lol.

She did The Real World just so she could do The Challenge and now she can never win. I hope it's the same for Jay also.

I wonder who CT will get if it's Exes. The only other person besides Diem that would have been funny was Ana but I think someone said she doesn't want to do it.

[QUOTE=WittyWrath;435045]I feel like she's forever cursed. She did The Real World just so she could do The Challenge and now she can never win. I hope it's the same for Jay also.[/QUOTE] Hopefully Sarah gets Alton (with a better mindset than on Seasons) and her luck can potentially change.

[QUOTE=WittyWrath;435047]I wonder who CT will get if it's Exes. The only other person besides Diem that would have been funny was Ana but I think someone said she doesn't want to do it.[/QUOTE] Ana has moved on. As for Sarah, she's been doing triathlons and is in significantly better shape. I hope she finally wins one

[QUOTE=LurkerNoMore;435048]Hopefully Sarah gets Alton (with a better mindset than on Seasons) and her luck can potentially change.[/QUOTE] I think Sarah has a good chance of winning with either Jordan or Alton so this might just be her year.

I think Sarah & Alton should be Exes and Nia & Jordan should be Exes. No one is going to remember that fling between Sarah & Jordan.

I wish Alexandra would do The Challenge and be paired with Frank. That would make a interesting pair.

[QUOTE=WittyWrath;435054]I wish Alexandra would do The Challenge and be paired with Frank. That would make a interesting pair.[/QUOTE] So confused...how would they be paired? Not that I watched SD2 but he's gay last time I checked.

[QUOTE=kvm1977;435057]So confused...how would they be paired? Not that I watched SD2 but he's gay last time I checked.[/QUOTE] He had this weird crush on her in the beginning of San Diego and he got mad because she had a boyfriend.

Frank is confusing

He had a bi-curious moment for a second. It happens LOL

[QUOTE=nevidcm;434867]Averey didn't really handled Nia, but I feel like Nia acted like a tough ***** and wasn't that impressive in that fight. I love Averey so I may be a little biased, but I think she'll be like a Kimberly or Nany, solid but obviously not elite like Laurel, Emily, or even [B]Cara Maria or Theresa[/B].[/QUOTE] Okay, I'm just sick of people thinking Cara Maria or Theresa are elite competitors or even close, especially Cara I mean her performance on the series overall was decent: FM2: Horrible Cutthroat: Decent Rivals: Decent Exes: - Decent Seasons: - Decent Rivals 2: Decent FA: Great just because of ONE season that she shined in, that means she is close to an elite competitor. And thinking Theresa is an elite competitor is just laughable (and I'm a fan of her)

Cara & Theresa are better than Kimberly & Nany...or at least so far and Kimberly's probably my second favorite player ever. Theresa's highly underestimated. She was Laurel's only competition.

Wow... It's been awhile, but looks like we'll be seeing Mark as a shoe in for the next Challenge. [ATTACH]5934[/ATTACH]

I think you guys are overrating Avery before she even competed in a challenge. In my opinion i think she is gonna be a better Jessica/Heather M.

[QUOTE=r3iKo;435082]Wow... It's been awhile, but looks like we'll be seeing Mark as a shoe in for the next Challenge. [ATTACH]5934[/ATTACH][/QUOTE] That blurb under that picture is making me laugh. He's definitely talking about Laurel and Jordan, he didn't seem like he liked them on Afterbuzz.

[QUOTE=r3iKo;435082]Wow... It's been awhile, but looks like we'll be seeing Mark as a shoe in for the next Challenge. [ATTACH]5934[/ATTACH][/QUOTE] Its all true that he's out of "retirement". As for season 26.... probably won't see him compete but I would LOVE to see him host stuff. Maybe season 27 though :) #THEDUEL3 ;)

[QUOTE=DarkFights;435086]I think you guys are overrating Avery before she even competed in a challenge. In my opinion i think she is gonna be a better Jessica/Heather M.[/QUOTE] I think Averey will do okay (just my prediction) but I feel like under pressure she may crack. So if she has a partner hopefully they'll work well together.
