The Challenge: Battle of the Seasons - Discussion (Spoilers)

LOL @ Derek giving away almost the entire show. No wonder MTV shows cancun no love. They are a bunch of big mouths.

[QUOTE=GDInstall;319815][url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZeyNzcOFy_4&feature=channel&list=UL[/url] Interesting.[/QUOTE] The video is gone, what was it about?

CaraMaria said something was found in one of their bags and they were sent home immediately.

He also said that he hooked up with Frank.

If I can make an inference, I'd say that Danny/Melinda go home tonight in the Endurance game

I feel like had Fresh Meat not been brought into the game things would be very different but not drastically, Austin would still be around and have a better chance IMO. FM team is such filler. The game is going to start as soon as SD's alliance falls apart, which it will. Cancun, NO and Vegas will get screwed.

I'm shocked Brooklyn had all 4 make the final after watching this. They're going to have to win a bunch of elimination rounds unless the power swings soon

[QUOTE=molds13;319971]They will. Well, I guess it depends on what you consider "a bunch".[/QUOTE] 4 would be a bunch...maybe even 3 I'm guessing Chet & Sarah go in at least twice. Devyn & JD at least once.

I will be honest, I do not watch much of the Real World anymore. I knew who these people were, just didn't watch the episodes. But I am praying next season the big boys come back and have a true Vets vs Rookies season. So Johnny, Kenny, Evan, Derrick, CT, Leroy, Wes, and Mark can put these San Diego kids in their places, especially Frank. He thinks he is so good when he would get destroyed by true vets if there were actual competion on this challenge. There's no way JD, Frank, Devyn would have been at the end. How Alton lost, I will never know, it had to be a mental or strategic game because no one can beat him at endurance, and the only guy who can beat him in Hall Brawl would be Zach.

With such strong and outspoken rookies on this season (the Rookie Revolution, according to Frank), I would anticipate MTV doing another Vets v. Rookies season for the next challenge. If they brought in all the big dogs v. the rookies that experienced success on this challenge it would be very dramatic I would imagine. Especially since Frank's head is going to be massive after this. Someone will need to knock him down a few notches.

Derek also seemed to have a big head during that interview he gave. But the Cancun kids have always seemed to have big heads.

After watching the afterbuzztv Aftershow with Frank this week, I'm feel like he won the finals for SD2. Why? Because all he says is that he was the brains in this team, but we never really saw his intelligent side of him. Probably all the others screwed up, but he was the only one that solved it. P.S: It doesnt really matter if you hate Frank, Zach, Trey in the end we finally have new challengers that will be invited back-to-back and they all have new characters. Frank "the lunatic smart guy", Zach "I will tell you in your face guy" and Trey "The Super Fan". And with this rookie revolution thing, they made sure that the challenge will continue. They must change the conditions, living in a prison camp is not funny. If I would be a producer and the next challenge would be a "Vets vs. Rookies" I would increase the number when you are a rookie from 2 to 4. Somebody who did three challenges isnt really a veteran in my eyes.

You know Sarah did like 6 seasons and somehow I still cant take her seriously. I do respect her but when I look at her I still see that rookie. Same with Camila or Mandi.

It will be interesting to see how SD2 and LV have a fall out since episode 2 showed them as an alliance. I'm starting to think the producers strategically cast mediocre vets against the rookies this season to showcase more of the rookies for future competitions against the good vets (JEK, CT, Laurel, Evelyn).

[QUOTE=molds13;320133]You'll know when they air the episode where he loses. It's not like they're going to edit it out.[/QUOTE] Haha I can imagine :P

Also Dustin said neither him nor Alton wanted to align with San Diego in the first place.

I think you can see the reason why in all those SpyCams. Frank and Derek are going to hook up, Dustin is going to express some kind of disgust over it, and then Zach and Frank go at Dustin over fratpad and Alton/Nany/Trishelle defend him. Frank and Nany were apparently close before this show but not anymore...Frank implied on twitter that she spit on/at him.

[QUOTE=JEKFAN;320170]I think the fallout has a lot to do with Sarah and Alton. Also Dustin said neither him nor Alton wanted to align with San Diego in the first place.[/QUOTE] I can clearly see how this alliance was formed. Nany/Frank were pretty close before the challenge and Trishelle hocked up (lets take Frank as a source here) with both Zach and Frank right in the beginning. So the boys hardly had an other choice.

Meanwhile, Trishelle and Jonna are having some drunk argument over whether everyone hates Jonna or not. Dustin might have made some comments during his season, while trying to cope with having his past come out, but he has made it pretty evident in present shows/interviews that he has many openly gay friends and isn't homophobic. I don't think he would be that stupid to comment on a gay hook up in the house, knowing everyone now knows his past. It's just easier for Zach to attack Dustin than Alton, who he is probably more intimidated by. Please let me know if there is another SpyCam video dispelling this, but as of now- I believe I'm correct.

I really like this season! So far the episodes have been great! I know some people are upset that San Diego wins and that we have to endure Frank, but so far he hasn't bugged me to the point of "Oh, I'm turning my tv off now." I'd kind of like to see FM stick around a little longer, but I know that won't happen. I'd rather St. Thomas go home before them.

Molds, do you know if San Diego even sees an elimination round? Even if they do, they're pretty much safe since they'd have no reason to send in Frank over Zach

[QUOTE=JEKFAN;320170]Also Dustin said neither him nor Alton wanted to align with San Diego in the first place.[/QUOTE] If only Vegas had flipped around now and aligned with St Thomas, Brooklyn, Fresh Meat, and Austin to knock San Diego off...

Why was Brooklyn not considered for elimination by Diego this past episode?

[QUOTE=g30068g;320285]Why was Brooklyn not considered for elimination by Diego this past episode?[/QUOTE] My guess is they're seen as the weakest of the other 4 teams.

Trey said that Frank had read about Trey on Vevmo before leaving for Turkey and formed a negative opinion about him beforehand.

Molds, you had said they reshot TJ explaining the rules to the teams, but Cara said Sydney never even saw TJ. Is it more likely they just delayed the teams meeting TJ, since Sydney never saw him and the televised segment had Fresh Meat joining after the rules were explained?
