CAST (197 Cast Members were given bios and cast photos in the link above)
allegedly Figgy from Survivor is one of the contestants.
She should have been on The Challenge.
Hope we get cast spoilers
456 pictures would be wild as hell
I was wondering if they'd release the cast lol.
in the show the contestants names aren't used the game masters simply just call them by a number so i imagine that happens here
Everyone should read the pretty brutal exposé on this show that Vice did a few months ago. Apparently it was rigged and the conditions were super awful.

you're on a show modeled after a death game why would it be life in luxury lol, it does seem like it was hard but complaining about things like being told you can't talk to people at the hotel or anything until the game is played is normal.
some mic packs not working and more interesting personalities getting more attention is also regular, there's 456 of you whoever stands out is getting camera time and a storyline.
All in all sounds rough as hell but about what i'd expect
I'm curious as well, seems like a lot of work for an intern but maybe have a website with everyone's pictures & numbers like the one from the show, and then you can click on a picture and get their name and like hometown or whatever.
I'd just hate for this to be like physical 100 where there's like 5 main characters on the show but none of them even make the final game so I don't know who anyone is in the end
I feel like they're prioritizing competition and the format more than the players.
Whoever sticks out, sticks out.
Figgy might get some attention since she's been on TV before, but even then how recognizable is she?
We'll she if she lasts at all, I think about 200 of them got out in the first challenge Only maybe 5 of them are going to get any sort of screentime beyond their 'death'
I wonder how they even cast 456 people, feel like it'd make sense to use rejects from other shows like The Circle and the Mole since they weren't gonna use them for that so why not give them a shot here. I can't imagine them wanting to use like hundreds of people who really gave off star qualities in their auditions because there's such a high chance they won't' be in more than a couple episodes
yeah Red Light Green Light will knock out literally hundreds of them, if they can make it past whatever their version of the blackout bloodbath is that's when they'll get individual screen time
Battleship looks like it's played in teams of 14 with 2 team leaders:

Glass Stepping Stones is the Final 16 comp, you can see only 16 players left:

3 People make the final dinner and should play Squid Game right after that to decide a winner:

They pulling shit out of their *** at this point
Do they lose if they get hit in battleship even if their team wins? I feel like if this was in the actual show they'd like shoot that square and the player would be dead/eliminated
probably. That's gonna be an intense one
So does bmp officially have part ownership to this due to the challenge title?
probably like Tug of War was played on the show where the whole team is eliminated at once
the biggest part of the game is gonna be the scramble to find an alliance and stick with it, but from the looks of the body types and gender distribution in the top 16 is doesn't appear that all the strong men teamed up like what happened on the actual show lol
technically it's "Squid Games: The Challenge" BMP was too busy with "Buddy Games"
plus the production was a mess, so I can see how you'd expect bmp to be involved, but they're a lil more organized...at least they pretend to be
i know some people on this
Gonna give us the inside scoop?
Damn how many glass tiles did they have for only 3 out of 16 to make it. Would take pretty terrible odds if it was only 16 since it's not like the real show where people were killing eachother
There's probably another game after that i'd imagine since they are doing original challenges as well
New Super Trailer
we're starting to see who the main players are.
Numbers 234 and 432 seem to be two of the more important male players which is funny considering their numbers are the same just forwards and backwards
