It was okay when people helped Jordan in world championship against Johnny. It was okay when the whole house helped Horacio and Olivia twice in RoD. It was okay when the vets were helping Ashley when she went against Priscilla in SLA. But we drew the line at helping Michele against Cara.

I don't recall anybody being okay with those then either lmao

None of these were ok in general.

Olivia and Horacio's win have been criticized (at the very least, I think that Olivia is mentally a bum).

Johnny was begging for help in that WC elimination.

And Priscilla's strategy in that elimination sucked, so it's not like Ashley beat her because of the help. That had everything to do with seasoned vet tackling an elimination better than a rookie.

I just think some of these are false equivalencies.

Uhhhh none of this is okay 

My stance on this has never changed. If people were helping Amber B win a elimination I still wouldn't like it

NO ONE SHOULD BE HELPING ANYONE WIN A ELIMINATION 

I'm just all for no help at all in general by the peanut gallery.

I mean what does that really do anyway for production and TV. It makes for anti-climatic eliminations. Really just extremely dumb not to ban it altogether.

what happened when they didnt help Bananas with his puzzle on World Championship vs Jordan. that **** made hilarious TV. Stop helping people.

 

Some are still making way too much out of a mercenary losing.  Hopefully Laurel and Cara do 40 and we'll see how they do when it truly matters. 

If you're implying there's no incentive to win, an extra 15k on a guaranteed 15k is nothing to scoff at.

If you throw me into a puzzle as a merc I'm coming on their side to mess that puzzle up I need my money.

Showing up for an elimination isn't the same as being in the game. 15k is nice and a good change. Still far less than what others are fighting for. 

It's amazing to me that after the backlash of people "skating to the finals" on WOTW2, that production came up with that stupid red/gold skull twist that greatly diminished good drama and gameplay. But when it comes to complaints about people helping during an elimination, they can't even be bothered to try and fix that making them exiles or hidden eliminations etc.

None of it was fine

They know why they're flying out tho.

Like 30k in this economy is someone's yearly payment for rent.

Nevermind most of the people that have been mercs have egos, so an L actually means something to them.

They should bring back super eliminations like the one ashley and nany did in WOTW2

SLA was highly beneficial to vets so I truly did not understand why WOTW2 inspired so much ire with production.

WC was also lopsided, two of those teams didn't even go in.

I agree helping shouldn't be a thing but a puzzle is the one thing I'm not worried about Michele losing 

Mattie got flung by a girl one-third her size.

Why are we talking about that big bicth?

In something that wasn't remotely physical. Y'all can't be that dense. Not liking someone does not mean they won't fling your fave.

WC was a solid concept, but it desperately needs to go back to the classic "last place goes in, daily winners choose their opponents" type format. Or have another call out format (although that would completely eliminate drama/politics).

see Cara dumb as hell too because it should have been obvious they were setting her up, she knows they hate her.

John knew better and they actually like him lol 

Mattie will never be on this show again so these imaginary scenarios will never happen 

NEXT  

That's my point. The show does that on purpose to ensure that their favorites aren't stepped on. Same reason why they stopped putting Nia on. They be knowing who the threats are, and instead of letting them build momentum they want their faves to keep a good name.

There's nothing impressive about beating someone 1/8 your size in Hall Brawl. That's just simple physics. Like yeah no shit she's gonna get flung. But the point is, Mattie was the one who got flung by Dee and that fat *** isn't even on this season, so moot point.

Getting $15k to lose an elimination she probably had no chance in is worth it to me. And it's good to stay in production's good graces especially for her. She's not in a place to decline any phone call from Skye

My point is, production been favoring Laurel and she avoids seasons with******* on the cast that can physically keep up with her. Y'all can't get mad now that she isn't being favored. All those years they gave Laurel those physical eliminations against those girls, lmao. 

They would've never gave Laurel that elimination they gave Mattie lmao. Everything they've ever given Laurel was to her strength. Not some BS where her big *** had to be trapped inside a little box and dig out. 

Out of all challengers THAT is who you're trying to defend in The Challenge: 39 Spoilers Discussion Thread?

Yep. 

She should've been on this season too. 

If they didn't want people to help then they shouldn't have mercenaries take 15k away from the prize money if they win.

Don't be that dense. Your favorite is a prolematic nasty ugly Mack truck built like racist Republican and that MAN could never beat Laurel. Next.

To flop again? That man beat 2 little tiny girls, of course that thing is gonna win when they're built like a ******* man. Don't be so ******* dense dude.
