It's laughable you don't think he's in the discussion. His performance these last 6 seasons definitely bring him back to the pack. But he is without a doubt in the conversation with Landon, Darrell, Jordan, CT. Bananas win in Free Agents was a pretty big mic drop win at the time. First ever individual challenge... wins. Bananas needs one more win now to take that top spot back.
he had literally all his friends casted on the island and was such a **** he still almost went home and would've had not abram had to go home. That puts him on the Challengers for ruins which is an automatic L. That takes us to Exes where mark threw an Elim for him. And then rivals where Adam threw an Elim for him and on top of that production quite literally just robbed Wes and Kenny to make it closer cause it wasn't even remotely close. Free agents he gets credit for. And then we have rivals 3 with a weak *** cast and he still had to cheat (take unprescribed adderall) to beat Sarah.
On top of that he's proven his endurance is shot, he can't physically beat most of these guys, and his puzzles and strategy and politics, all shot. So no, he's not even remotely close to the discussion for GOAT.
Idk what the next trilogy would be though. They’ve done revenge and international. And have basically ruled out old vs new. I’m actually more curious what S36 is gonna be lolol

Could you imagine how successful an "eras" trilogy could be? Let's be real...CT, John, Zach & Cara aren't going anywhere. We could easily create an old school (with most regulars) and current era (starting with the first trilogy) and then add new people for a new era. Make it a Cutthroat set-up, then do a rivals-exes type, then do an individual. Throw in a few true old schoolers, RW-Atlanta and we'd be on to something. JMO

At best that seems like a one-time special...idk how plausible it is to stretch over 3 seasons

Same way WOTW would...or XXX did. Rivalries would be created, relationships would occur, etc. Like I said, teams then pairs (exes/rivals) then individual
The losing team had to pick someone to go into the tribunal. Then the winning team would select 3 members to be in the tribunal, the losing person would plead their case on who they wanted to face. And the team would then decide who they were gonna face.

Eh....so Cara, Zach, Paulie and Leroy were typically the tribunal I suppose
wow idk if this is true but does seem interesting... Queen Svetlana being almost casted 3 times... I wish she could’ve done at least 2 more challenges...

That is actually pretty cool about pleading your case on who you want to face. I dig it.

idk how I feel about this. I like it to extent. I don’t like pleading your case to the tribunal on who to face part. For the most part the tribunal will prob pick who they want to go in I mean they have that power to just ignore your request unless it Someone they want so idk I’m not feeling that. We’ll see how it plays out. So even if you’re on the winning team you still can go into the proving ground? Or the whole team is safe or just the tribunal?

This explains why Ct was safe...he got voted on the tribunal probb by Cara and her friends

It is widely agreed on and true that Bananas is not the GOAT, but I think it’s crazy to say that he’s not top 5, or at least top 10. It’s true that had Abram not left, he may not have won the Island, or had Darrell not DQ’d, he may not have won Ruins, but you can’t take wins away from him simply because he had friends or good partners. That’s part of the game. Also, if we are going to credit Cara for simply MAKING 7 finals, then we certainly have to credit John for WINNING 6 of them.
Heres how I think the top 10 rounds out:
1a - Jordan
1b - Landon
1c - Darrell
4 - CT
5a - Johnny
5b - Derrick
7a - Kenny
7b - Evan
9 - Wes
10 - Alton
I think that Jordan’s wins are more impressive than Landon’s and Darrell’s. Also, Darrell has made some very early exits which Landon and Jordan have not. Furthermore, I think Jordan and Landon have a mental edge over Darrell. Derrick is below Johnny simply because his body of work is confined almost entirely to the team era, although his performance in XXX was great, he wasn’t really tested until there were 6 people left. Still, getting to the final in XXX despite a decade-long hiatus gets him ranked ahead of Kenny, who also has 3 wins in the team era .
Kenny ranks above Evan due to his ridiculous ability to constantly make finals, albeit in the team era. Evan’s performance on Rivals loses him points for me, despite his big win in Duel 2. Wes has gone out early too many times to rank above JEK, particularly when you take into account that Wes’ only truly great final performance was in The Duel. Alton quitting in his last season loses him many points from me.
I’ll post my female rankings later but I think they are much more cut and dry.

That doesn't explain why CT was safe... why wouldn't team UK send him into the tribunal and then cara/her friends vote who he does in against?
The losing team had to pick someone to go into the tribunal. Then the winning team would select 3 members to be in the tribunal, the losing person would plead their case on who they wanted to face. And the team would then decide who they were gonna face.
So 4 people were in the tribunal? Makes no sense.
Losing team picks say Bear.
Wining team picks Cara, Paulie and Zach.
Bear pleads who he wants to go in against and the 3 choose his opponent? (Wes?) (can it be from any team?)

Huh.. I actually like this format now. It has potential to setup some interesting and messy dynamics.
I’d love to see someone like Bananas getting voted in and begging for Josh or Wes, and saying he’ll switch teams or be a scapegoat or whatever if he’s given what he wants, then the Tribunal getting to the elimination, seeing Back Up Off Me as the elimination, and being like yeah here’s CT, good luck.

Does anyone know when season is expected to air?
In before Challenge 35 is a Final Reckoning type challenhe where the partner rivalries are from 33/34 to finish another “Trilogy”
September if I had to guess.
well it's already a confirmed legendary season then <33
anyone seen this? It’s a list of all the challenges and who was suppose to be on the shows but weren’t used.
https://stopbeingpolite.com/2013/10/22/challenges-that-could-have-been/
tbh this is 100% what I expect.
Idk what the next trilogy would be though. They’ve done revenge and international. And have basically ruled out old vs new. I’m actually more curious what S36 is gonna be lolol
The Duel was i dividual fool and bananas went home first you bum.

Stop--we lose some credibility when we make arguments like this. He lost one of the dumbest elimination rounds ever to a future champion.
Bananas is no champ, but on his behalf he has been eliminated in some dumb eliminations.
Okay. But he still lost the first indivitual season so...
At best that seems like a one-time special...idk how plausible it is to stretch over 3 seasons

Yes it can be from either team
I'm excited for the team voting drama that will ensue.

I hope Wes is the one who begs to face Bear just to laugh when Bear beats him in Balls in
