[QUOTE]How come people always forget banana's eliminations. After cutthroat, bananas was in an elimination on rivals 1 with CT/adam which was definitely a tough one but he survived.[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure if Bananas deserves credit for that one. I've seen a lot of talk on here that Adam may have made a deal with Kenny and Johnny and thrown that elimination on purpose because he didn't want to be CT's teammate. Obviously, that's just a rumor, but it wouldn't surprise me if it were true. Anyone who watched Rivals could tell Adam hated every minute of being being stuck with CT.
I don't know if I beleive that just seeing how upset Adam was when he lost and even on the reunion. It seemed like he was beating himself up about it and it didn't come off as he threw it.

You might be right. I just felt the need to throw that out there because I'm not sure if the elimination with CT/Adam is the best example to use. Adam certainly had the motivation to throw that final elimination because he hated being CT's partner. But we'll never know for sure if that's what happened unless someone confirms it for us.
Speaking of Adam, does anyone know why he hasn't been on a Challenge since Rivals? Is he done or has he just not been invited back for another one?

I doubt Adam threw it but his behavior is a bit questionable during and after. First, maybe Adam subconsciously messed up because he truly didn't want to help ct get a win or make money. Maybe he was part sad but part happy but played it up while he knew ct woudl be around on the aftershows and in case he ran into ct again. I mean they were chatting on the phone a lot up until the reunion, than according to CT adam just basically went awol on him after that. Adam also was out talking mad crap about CT according to a few people from instagram who ran into him maybe 5-6 months ago. So he clearly isn't over it. So maybe Adam was truly just putting on a show and acting like he wanted to be his friend(up until he didn't have to see him anymore on reunion/aftershow) so ct wouldn't flip out on him. Doesn't mean he threw it, but maybe he never wanted to truly win i mean it's hard to do well if your head isn't in it, could explain his mental mistakes that a smart guy like adam wouldn't make. Adam was saying the entire season to ct's face how he likes and trusts him, while bashing him to JEK behind his back, so maybe JEK just really got in his head and caused his mental miscues. Adam looked like a complete sucker that whole season with his JEK/Wes scenes he was easily manipulated...Maybe they convinced him to throw it and he didn't get any of their money, wouldn't surprise me if he was suckered into doing that somehow, but i truly hope he didn't.
I'd say Mark was more likely to throw it since he had no chance of winning exes, than Adam on rivals. Adam just didn't have his heart in it to win and maybe he did bad on purpose to spite him who knows. From what i hear about Adam is he doesn't' need the money(family money?), so winning to him may not be as important as others. Mark seems like the type to strike a deal too.

I don't know maybe they haven't called him, I have always find adam to be wallpaper, honestly if it wasn't for CT he wouldn't be relevant to the show.
[QUOTE=JEKFAN;411996]He hasn't fit the themes except for Free Agents so maybe that is why.[/QUOTE]
Adam and Jenn could have been a team on Exes, but she hasn't been on a Challenge since Rivals either.

She retired after Rivals.

Adam grew up rich. He grew up in Beverley Hills. So it's no surprise that he doesn't need the money. He never had to work for it.

I never want to see that ******* back. I'm okay that CT shoved him all over Paris, showered him in beer and gave him 8 stitches. The kid threw that elimination it's so obvious I mean he's supposed to be real smart how did he **** up twice? Not to mention he didn't really look remorseful, cut all contact with CT, and even trash talked him a couple months later. He's always been a slimeball and people are legitimately ignoring his little antics by labeling him as a "victim" and a "good guy". The kid never had CT's back in Paris, got all in his business on G3, and threw a beer can at CT when CT repeatedly told him to not touch him, basically warning Adam a good 4 times. He knew CT was going through some tough **** with his brothers death and he took advantage of it.
Adam has always been shady on these shows.

Really? Did not know that about him.
[QUOTE=proceed;412055]His father is one of the founding members of the commodores.[/QUOTE]
Didn't he mention that on his season? It's been awhile since I've seen it.
[QUOTE=Debut Album;412057]Didn't he mention that on his season? It's been awhile since I've seen it.[/QUOTE]
I never watched Paris, so I don't know. I only found out because I follow him on twitter, and he posted about going to one of his dad's performances. He's pretty lowkey about it.
[QUOTE=JEKFAN;412068]She stated she was done after Rivals and it was due to all the hate she got from it. I'm sure production would take her back, they loved her.[/QUOTE]
How do you know she stopped because of that reason?
[QUOTE=v123;412070]How do you know she stopped because of that reason?[/QUOTE]
She has said as much...they had her back to break down Exes...they'd take her in a second. Think
[QUOTE=v123;412070]How do you know she stopped because of that reason?[/QUOTE]
That was one of the key reasons, she has stated that...She was coming off as a complete psycho on the reunion on rivals etc. So it's probably for the best. There may have been things influencing her behavior though

All that hate was well deserved if you ask me.
I don't remember the exact specifications of the fight, but from what I remember, Jenn was being a huge ***** to Cara at that night club/the house on Rivals.
[QUOTE=Debut Album;412083]All that hate was well deserved if you ask me.[/QUOTE]
Wait a second...you think hatred toward a regular is deserved? I'm stunned

Oh yeah I do. Especially when they act like an *******.

This is wrong also. In a four person draw.
First person has a 25% chance of pulling the kill card.
Second: ~33% - if it gets to them
Third: 50% - if it gets to them
Fourth: 100% - if it gets to them
This doesn't tell the whole story because if the person in front of you pulled the card you are out of the draw so what is the probability the draw gets to person N. It's 1 - the probability the person before you drew the kill card. So
First person: 25% this stays the same as they will always draw
Second person: (1-.25)*.33 = 0.2475 - They have a 75% chance of having to draw times a 33% chance of pulling the kill card
Third person: (1-0.2475) * .5 = 0.37625
Fourth person: (1-0.37625) * 1 = 0.62375
Make sense?

That is very wrong as well. You kind of got the point but the parts bolded need to be the sum of the all of the previous odds of the kill card was selected, not just the previous chance the last person selected the kill card.
Anyhow, it's been revealed why there is a very large chance the kill card will never be picked first. Got it from the Isaac thread.
