The Challenge: Best Elimination Round

What do ppl think was the best Inferno/Gauntlet/Duel ever? To me I think it was the pole wrestle between Derrick and Wes. Brad vs Abe in "Balls In" is a close second. What does everyone else think?

I liked the Beth vs Slev (The Duel) in Push Me...to me that was like a miracle for little Slev. And Beth vs Coral in Ball Brawl (Gaunlet 3) that one was amazing.

lol. Svet seemed like she was on crack at the reunion. I didn't like how she treated Bethany.

Yea, If Beth, Svet and Aneesa would have stuck together, I think they could have gone final 3. Who took out Robin? I know Aneesa took Diem and Paula. Svet took Beth and Kina. And I love when Anessa makes a best friend on challenges. Duel it was Svet and On I3 it was Jenn. Im still upset that Aneesa turned down this upcoming challenge. She would probaly be gone by now anyways.

The producers were inept and the management in Van Nuys spineless -- nothing they have not heard me say before. I'm still waiting for the first person from the crew or the company leadership to tell me that Svetlana actually won. The on-site production people made up the rules as they went along and have never produced a written copy as I believe they were required to do under the Game Show Act, and as detailed in the contract. Ball Braw, unfortunately, was nothing like what was shown on TV. I still hold some hope that MTV will eventually show it all, including the conversation between Beth and Coral in the middle of it during which the two decided which of them would go home. That conversation, and not the physical competition, determined the outcome.

[QUOTE=Kempoleo;19505]I heard from Beth's blog that she purposely lost, so I can believe that. i think that the push me challenge was pretty fair, because the same kind of DQ happened to CT.[/QUOTE] You are incorrect. There were significant differences between CT and Beth's experience. The stuff you didn't see was Svetlana crying, quitting and walking off to the side. There was no doubt among the cast as to whom had won. What happened after that was a complete and total joke. CT's didn't have his opponent quit and break down, so the circumstances were very different.
There is no question what the best elimination ever was. Wes vs. Derrick in Duel 2. Watch the video if you haven't seen it yet.
Timmy vs. Abe Inferno 3! glass smashing challenge
[QUOTE=jkauf23;19536]There is no question what the best elimination ever was. Wes vs. Derrick in Duel 2. Watch the video if you haven't seen it yet.[/QUOTE] That may be my favorite as well. Definitely a classic moment.

The Gauntlet 2: Alton Vs Danny (RR X-treme) lol!
Inferno II: Abe vs Brad "Balls in" - it was very intense, you actually could see insanity in Abram's eyes But Wes vs Derrick in The Duel was incredible too.

Are there links to watch all the challenges?
I really wish they could replay the old challenges especially the old 6 on 6 format...
you're welcome, Ashes =). tj, as far as I know the challenges that MTV has up are fresh meat, the duel, inferno 3, and gauntlet 3.
inferno II Tonya vs Julie
Tonya and Julie Inferno was pretty brutal, but quite funny also. The Inferno itself was funny. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Inferno between Jenn and Rachel just for the breakdown afterwards. It was funny.

I just watched all of fresh meat...thanks for that link dartagnan..i keep coming back to it because i have no idea how to get to it from the MTV website..anyone know why Tina hasn't been on challenges lately? I used to love her.

I used to love her.[/QUOTE] Yeah, you can't get to it directly from the site, but all you have to do is go to google and type in "MTV Fresh Meat" and the first link you see is to that website. Last I heard, Tina said she was done with challenges, but you never know. She could be like Tonya and change her mind and do more.

I used to love her.[/QUOTE] Tina announced on her myspace and elsewhere after The Duel that she was finished with MTV's challenges, that she had other priorities in her life now. Whatever justification works for her is fine with me.
The Svetlana-Kina Duel was great to watch because...well it was just something I wanted to see happen. There are a few others, the Derrick-Wes one was intense too, as was pretty much all of Derrick's gauntlets in Gauntlet 2. There are a few others but I need to think of which ones.
