Unpopular Opinion: I was on Jordan's side during his fight with LaToya on Free Agents. I think LaToya is funny but she took the game way too seriously that season. When she yelled at him saying "You walked into my room and didn't say what the **** you felt." I was like *** you guys aren't even friends, why should he have to tell you he was voting for you lol

100% agreed. Jordan just met her, why would he have her back? I couldn't stand Latoya on FA because she took everything so seriously. Dude your a roookie like of course you are going to get voted in.

I got a different vibe, though it maybe biased because I actually adore LaToya, but I don't think it was wrong for her to be upset. If he came up to her with a smile and was all friendly, then voted her in, I can see how fake that was on Jordan's part. Take my opinion lightly, since I don't remember much from FA, and have quite a good biased opinion (if that's how you want to look at it) about LaToya, but that's how I perceived it.

Yeah, Then I remember her yelling at him voting her in, when ten other people did the same thing lol

Latoya definitely isn't perfect and didn't take her vote-in rationally, but honestly that's why I loved it. What fun is it to see a rookie sent in we get the typical "awww this sucks but I understand and I'll come back :)". I loved that Latoya decided to get loud and confrontational about it.

^^^^

 

Exactly, I loved how Toya told off everyone. And idk how many of the rookies even watch The Challenge so she might not have even known the dynamics of the house and why she was getting voted in. It annoys me when people get mad at the players for being mad about being voted in. Everyone on this forum trashed Diem for it. Why are you mad that she's frustrated that she potentially wasted 5 weeks in a house and has no shot at winning any money?

And the reason she first yelled at Jordan was because he made a smart *** remark at the nominations ceremony. 

Also it's hard to not take a vote personally on this show. It's easy to say online that they shouldn't take it personally, but when you're living with these people 24/7 and get to know them, it's gonna hurt when they vote you into elimination after you just had a nice conversation with them an hour before that.

Shauvon was hot on RW: Sydney but she looked like a completely different person on the challenges lmaoooo

Her **** game was on point though lol

Shauvon is absolutely disgusting haha! I think Zack would have a few choice words for her. It involves a swamp & a donkey lol.

Not only did she look different but she acted differently too. I feel like she did things on the challenge that I would've never guessed she would do on Sydney.

i dont want laurel to come back unless other females get their shit together on the same challenge with her. its annoying watching her intimidate and scare people as a way to fuel her ego. i wish someone would put her in her place or at least make her sweat. we only got to see that last season once with aneesa

To be fair, she's like top 5 good so it's kind of hard for Laurel to really be challenged like that. Of course you could see that with Emily in something physical, but I don't think it's about the girls getting their shit together (even though we definitely need more competitive females), but Laurel being that good. We have also seen her be very close to getting eliminated on Cutthroat too.

Is it just me or do people put too much emphases on physical eliminations? To me latley it seems like people want to see all the eliminations be physcial and for it to be a knock out dragged out fight...While those eliminations are good they aren't everything nor should it be all that these people on these shows do. I'd rather see some diversity. I like to see some puzzles, endurance and something that you have to think and requires skill rather than just beating someone up. I think this current challenge has been good with that. All the eliminations weren't physcial and some of them were interesting to watch(such as Breaking Up and the Sledgehamme one forgot the name of it). To me I think the eliminations(and challenges too) should be more about physcial combat.

**** I remember during the end of last season people were ****** off that Backpack/CT and Laurel/Theresa went head to head in a puzzle. People were complaning that it wasn't some overblown physical combat elimination. And I didn't get it. We already saw CT and Backpack in something physcial. Why did we need to see it again?(I didn't care about Laurel/Theresa).

But yeah way too many people want to see only physical eliminations I feel like.

I think every season should be like Battle of the Seasons where the winning team chooses the elimination that is being played from 4 or 5 categories (endurance, physical, mental, etc.). This also adds another layer to strategy, plus it prevents production from favoring a team.

Go back to the Gauntlet days where they roll the dice. I love that

I agree. I really liked how they handled eliminations that season. They were all different and you couldn't pick the same one in back to back rounds. I wish they kept doing that.

I'd love for another BOTSeasons elimination-setup, where the people in power pick a category. The only thing I'd add/change would be to have more eliminations for each category, so we're not stuck with the same 4. Or even a Gauntlet 2 system where they spin a wheel. Something that the players can control.

I liked BOTS2 eliminations set up, but at the same time I think I like completely different eliminations each round even better. Rotating sucks when 2/4 games suck to watch. It's exciting to see the new elimination game when everyone walks in, and trying to guess how it'll work and who will win since it hasn't been played before.

I liked the way it was setup as well but the endurance one completely sucked.

That can still happen. I mean, it'd be a lot of work, but when they pick a repeat elimination for the second time, the elimination could be completely different.

Yeah Melinda tweeted that they just did nothing for most of the time and only tried the last minute

Yeah I can't remember who but someone said that everyone only tried like the last 30 seconds so it was pretty much a waste.

Balls Out was poor at best--they were at least smart enough to change it after the first one...Eric winning an Endurance elimination says everything

Knot So Fast was pretty good...requires team work

Hall Brawl was good but I don't really think partner elimination rounds that aren't involving any team work--why have individual eliminations with partners?

I hated Water Torture...there was nothing "mental" about it for the guys

Yeah it was much more endurance than mental for guys.

I liked Water Tourture but I do think it was in the wrong category though. That really should've been a puzzle type elimination or something that was actually mental for both players.

I don't mind the elimination itself...I just hate it for a mental elimination

****, I'd like Puzzle Pryamid where they have to switch of each doing two but there really needs to be a mental elimination that both have to use their brains

I think what would have made Water Torture even better is if the guy also had to solve the puzzle on his side as well. Both players had to solve their respective puzzle

I want to see Aneesa, Nia & Theresa vs. Coral, Laurel & Nany

Like ifboth had to pull each other up with a rope. So they inter-switch pulling each other up.
