Every exile on Fresh Meat was won by 1 of the 3 teams that made the final.
3 of the 8 winners from The Inferno never saw an Inferno. Darrell, Abram, and Timmy. 7 of the 9 winners from The Gauntlet never saw a Gauntlet. Adam, Darrell, Dave, Theo, Roni, Veronica, and Rachel. 3 of the 4 winners from The Inferno II never saw an Inferno. Darrell, Mike, and Jamie. 7 of the 9 winners from The Gauntlet 2 never saw a Gauntlet. Randy, Landon, MJ, Jamie, Ibis, Jodi, and Susie. 4 of the 6 winners from The Inferno 3 never saw an Inferno. Kenny, Tonya, Janelle, and Evelyn. 2 of the 6 winners from The Gauntlet III never saw a Gauntlet. Johanna and Rachel. 3 of the 5 winners from The Ruins never went into the Ruins. Kenny, Evan, and Derrick. 1 of the 4 winners from Cutthroat never saw a Gulag. Brad. Jenn was the only person of 30 people on Cutthroat that did not receive a vote in deliberation. Evelyn, Paula, Ryan, Dunbar, KellyAnne, and Dave were the only people on The Island that did have to go into a vote off. Paula and Dave were the only two that never had to step foot on the vote off floor for any reason. If Johnny makes it to the final challenge on Free Agents he will be tied with Kenny for the most final challenge appearances. Despite being challenge champions Mark, Theo, Jodi, Johanna, Rachel M, Janelle, and Ibis are winless in elimination rounds. If I left any out let me know. In 7 challenges, Beth has never been to a final challenge (not counting season 2). That is the worst of any player. If Danny and/or Tyrie do another challenge and don't make the finals they will join her. Luke is the only Fresh Meat II returning male to have made a final challenge. Where all 4 of the Fresh Meat returning males made a final. Real World Boston, New Orleans, Austin, Key West, and San Diego (2011) have the most challenge champions with 4 people. I believe San Diego (2004) is in 2nd with 3 challenge champions. Real World Boston, New Orleans, Austin, and Las Vegas (2011) are the only RW seasons where all the cast members have done a challenge. If I am forgetting any, let me know. Real World London, Denver, Hollywood, Brooklyn, Cancun, New Orleans (2010), Las Vegas (2011), St. Thomas, and Portland are the only RW seasons that have people who have done a challenge that have no challenge champions coming from it. Since season 9 Fresh Meat II, Rivals, Exes, and Free Agents are the only seasons where a Derrick/Derek was not casted. That's all I have for now. I'll try to come up with some more stuff.

Darrell, Rachel, Sarah G., and Kendal all have at least 1 win from Campus Crawl. Dave, Cara, Abram, and Christena from South Pacific each have challenge wins while Jodi, Kina, Derrick, and Jillian have all won from X-Treme.

I guess I wasn't really looking that much into Road Rules because I don't know much about it.
[QUOTE=El Scorcho;419860]7 of the 9 winners from The Gauntlet 2 never saw a Gauntlet. Randy, Landon, MJ, Jamie, Ibis, Jodi, and Susie.[/QUOTE] Smh that Alton and Kina were the only two who ever won an elimination round from that team. Although I guess that's how the format was set up.
[QUOTE=El Scorcho;419860] If Johnny makes it to the final challenge on Free Agents he will be tied with Kenny for the most final challenge appearances. [/QUOTE] They are already tied, if Johnny makes the final this season he will be one ahead of Kenny. Kenny- Inferno 3, Gauntlet 3, the Island, the Ruins, Fresh Meat 2, Rivals Bananas- Inferno 3, the Island, the Ruins, Rivals, Exes, Rivals 2, Free Agents (potentially)

[QUOTE=TeamLandon;419889]You forgot Kenny's Fresh Meat 1 appearance.[/QUOTE] Duh. My mistake. Thanks for setting my mind straight. I try to forget that challenge, wasn't my favorite. My apologies to El Scorcho.
If Kenny had never done The Duel, he would have made the finals every single time he's appeared on a Challenge. It would be the most consistent record ever.

[QUOTE=toenails;419909]If Kenny had never done The Duel, he would have made the finals every single time he's appeared on a Challenge.

I'm also assuming, aside from the single challenge Fresh Meat winners, that Landon is the most consistent with 3 wins and the other being the elimination before the final.

[QUOTE=Youssarian;419053]With some talk of it in the Generic thread, I wanted to find out just how recycled the casts have been as of late, and if they've been more recycled than casts of past. Here's the numbers: Challenge 2000 had 0 out of 12 people that were on the previous Challenge (0%) Extreme Challenge had 0 out of 13 people that were on the previous Challenge (0%) Battle of the Seasons had 1 ut of 32 people that was on the previous Challenge (3%) Battle of the Sexes had 5 out of 36 people that were on the previous Challenge (14%) The Gauntlet had 6 out of 28 people that were on the previous Challenge (21%) The Inferno had 7 out of 20 people that were on the previous Challenge (35%) Battle of the Sexes 2 had 7 out of 36 people that were on the previous Challenge (19%) Inferno 2 had 9 out of 20 people that were on the previous Challenge (45%) Gauntlet 2 had 6 out of 32 people that were on the previous Challenge (19&) Fresh Meat had 2 out of 12 alumni that were on the previous Challenge (17%) The Duel had 8 out of 20 people that were on the previous Challenge (40%) Inferno 3 had 6 out of 21 people that were on the previous Challenge (29%) Gauntlet 3 had 9 out of 33 people that were on the previous Challenge (27%) The Island had 8 out of 20 people that were on the previous Challenge (40%) Duel 2 had 6 out of 28 people that were on the previous Challenge (21%) The Ruins had 9 out of 28 people that were on the previous Challenge (31%) Fresh Meat 2 had 6 out of 13 alumni that were on the previous Challenge (46%) Cutthroat had 10 out of 30 people that were on the previous Challenge (33%) Rivals had 12 out of 29 people that were on the previous Challenge (41%) Battle of the Exes had 14 out of 26 people that were on the previous Challenge (54%) Battle of the Seasons had 6 out of 32 people that were on the previous Challenge (19%) Rivals 2 had 16 out of 33 people that were on the previous Challenge (48%) Free Agents has 16 out of 28 people that were on the previous Challenge (57%) You can definitely see it's gone up, with Free Agents being the highest ever...[/QUOTE] I decided to take this post one step further. One thing that was brought up on Rivals 2 is that (I believe) besides Theresa, Cooke, and the Portland teams, everyone had been on the past 2 Challenges before it. So I decided to see how many people were on each Challenge that weren't on the previous two Challenges as well. Challenge 2000 had 0 out of 12 people that were on the previous 2 Challenges (0%) Extreme Challenge had 0 out of 13 people that were on the previous 2 Challenges (0%) Battle of the Seasons had 7 out of 32 people that was on the previous Challenge (22%) Battle of the Sexes had 13 out of 36 people that were on the previous Challenge (36%) The Gauntlet had 10 out of 28 people that were on the previous Challenge (36%) The Inferno had 10 out of 20 people that were on the previous Challenge (50%) Battle of the Sexes 2 had 11 out of 36 people that were on the previous Challenge (31%) Inferno 2 had 12 out of 20 people that were on the previous Challenge (60%) Gauntlet 2 had 17 out of 32 people that were on the previous Challenge (53%) Fresh Meat had 5 out of 12 alumni that were on the previous Challenge (42%) The Duel had 14 out of 20 people that were on the previous Challenge (70%) Inferno 3 had 9 out of 21 people that were on the previous Challenge (43%) Gauntlet 3 had 18 out of 33 people that were on the previous Challenge (55%) The Island had 13 out of 20 people that were on the previous Challenge (65%) Duel 2 had 18 out of 28 people that were on the previous Challenge (64%) The Ruins had 17 out of 28 people that were on the previous Challenge (61%) Fresh Meat 2 had 10 out of 13 alumni that were on the previous Challenge (77%) Cutthroat had 17 out of 30 people that were on the previous Challenge (57%) Rivals had 16 out of 29 people that were on the previous Challenge (55%) Battle of the Exes had 18 out of 26 people that were on the previous Challenge (69%) Battle of the Seasons had 8 out of 32 people that were on the previous Challenge (25%) Rivals 2 had 27 out of 33 people that were on the previous Challenge (82%) Free Agents has 20 out of 28 people that were on the previous Challenge (71%)
I was bored, so I decided to find out the total prize money won by every cast member. However, this list is incomplete! I didn't account for money won in daily missions, only total prize money at the end. For example, I think in Rivals and Rivals 2, teams won $1000 for winning a mission? Or perhaps one of the "prizes" in the team Challenges was $1,000 for everyone on the team or something? I'm not sure, and I have bad memory when it comes to this. So if y'all could help me and tell me about any money that was won in daily challenges/missions, then I will update this and it can be fully accurate. But, until then, here's the list of money that everyone's won as of Rivals 2: $278,794 – Johnny Bananas Denenanzio $247,500 – Wes Bergmann $240,555 – Darrell Taylor $236,293 – Kenny Santucci $184,166 – Landon Lueck $176,666 – Jodi Weatherton $176,293 – Derrick Kosinski $165,000 – Evelyn Smith $151,293 – Evan Starkman $135,555 – Rachel Robinson $132,500 – CT Tamburello $129,500 – Mike Mizanin $125,000 – Aviv Melmed $122,500 – Paula Meronek $106,840 – Susie Meister $102,500 – Abram Boise $102,500 – Emily Schromm $100,000 – Carley Johnson $95,000 – Jamie Murray $90,000 – Tori Hall $90,000 – Tyler Duckworth $85,555 – Theo Vonkurnatowski $82,500 – Camila Nakagawa $80,184 – Mark Long $80,000 – Frank Sweeney $79,055 – Veronica Portillo $75,000 – Brad Fiorenza $75,000 – Laurel Stucky $72,000 – Coral Smith $71,000 – Dan Setzler $70,000 – Jillian Zoboroski $62,500 – Ashley Kelsey $62,500 – Cara Maria Sorbello $62,500 – Sam McGinn $62,500 – Zach Nichols $60,000 – Eric Nies $57,500 – Jamie Chung $50,000 – Colin Mortensen $50,000 – Danny Roberts $50,000 – Diem Brown $50,000 – Elka Walker $50,000 – Frank Roessler $50,000 – Johanna Botta $50,000 – Kelley Limp $50,000 – Nehemiah Clark $50,000 – Rachel Moyal $50,000 – Sean Duffy $50,000 – Tonya Cooley $48,666 – Alton Williams $47,689 – Sarah Rice $43,500 – Holly Shand $41,071 – Katie Doyle $41,071 – Timmy Beggy $40,000 – Dunbar Merrill $40,000 – Janelle Casanave $35,555 – Cara Zavaleta $35,000 – Brittini Sherrod $32,500 – Christena Pyle $32,500 – Kendal Sheppard $28,334 – Syrus Yarbrough $27,905 – Julie Stoffer $26,666 – Ibis Nieves $26,666 – Kina Dean $26,666 – MJ Garrett $26,666 – Randy Barry $25,555 – Adam Larson $25,555 – David Giuntoli $25,555 – Roni Martin $25,555 – Sarah Greyson $25,000 – Dustin Zito $25,000 – Tina Barta $25,000 – Trishelle Cannatella $23,571 – Aneesa Ferreira $20,000 – Jenn Grijalva $20,000 – Luke Wolfe $20,000 – Pete Connolly $20,000 – Ty Ruff $19,334 – Dan Renzi $19,334 – Rebecca Lord $18,334 – Kameelah Phillips $17,500 – Heather Cooke $15,238 – David Burns $13,706 – Nathan Blackburn $13,294 – KellyAnne Judd $12,000 – Norman Korpi $11,000 – Los Jackson $11,000 – Piggy Thomas $11,000 – Yes Duffy $10,000 – Ace Amerson $10,000 – Casey Cooper $10,000 – Chet Cannon $10,000 – Devyn Simone $10,000 – JD Ordonez $8,571 – Robin Hibbard $7,667 – Christian Breivik $7,667 – Emily Bailey $7,667 – James Orlando $7,500 – Jemmye Carroll $7,500 – Jordan Wiseley $7,500 – Marlon Williams $6,667 – Amaya Brecher $6,667 – Heather Gardner $6,667 – Kat Ogden $6,667 – Laterrian Wallace $6,667 – Michelle Parma $6,667 – Mike Lambert $6,667 – Teck Holmes $6,613 – Anne Wharton $6,613 – Kalle Dedolph $6,613 – Kefla Hare $6,613 – Noah Rickun $6,613 – Roni Martin $1,706 – Beth Stolarczyk $1,706 – Janet Choi $1,706 – Jason Cornwell $1,706 – Montana McGlynn $1,706 – Neil Forrester
This might just be me, but I see a pattern with Bananas and the Fresh Meat. Both Fresh Meat eliminated first (Ev and Cara) had a tumultuous relationship with him. Although he is rude with a lot of the girls, MTV has somewhat made their relationship into a storyline.

The entire 5th episode of Battle of the Sexes 1 was dedicated to Puck's wedding, no challenge no eliminations lol
[QUOTE=CTRoyLeeFAN;422430]The entire 5th episode of Battle of the Sexes 1 was dedicated to Puck's wedding, no challenge no eliminations lol[/QUOTE] Same with Ayanna being kicked off of Extreme Challenge, and Battle of the Seasons had a couple of episodes like that as well
Cohutta has been in 5 elimination rounds. The 1st was against Wes and the last 4 have all been against black males (Syrus, Darrell, Preston, Leroy)
Does Laurel officially have the best elimination round record with 8-0?
[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;423272]Does Laurel officially have the best elimination round record with 8-0?[/QUOTE] Yup, she's had it since she was 6-0
Who has the best for the guys? Frank with 3-0?
[QUOTE=LHarkins;423334]Who has the best for the guys? Frank with 3-0?[/QUOTE] Wes 11-4
To have the best record, you kinda have to be undefeated in my eyes. And even if not 3/0 > 11/4 if you're looking at win/loss ratios
It's a hell of a lot easier to be 3-0 then 11-4.....
I mean if you're getting technical, if you're looking at win/loss 11/4 is a little under 25%, and 3/0 is infinite (you cant divide by a 0!) - well I guess the term is undefined but in that case you would then compute the limit....
[QUOTE=Challenge 17;423463]It's a hell of a lot easier to be 3-0 then 11-4.....[/QUOTE] In what possible way does that make sense. If you lose, then shock horror, you lose regardless of how many eliminations you won before or after it. Winning 3 eliminations and being undefeated is statistically better than winning 11 and losing 4. That is what I am saying seeing as now people are saying Laurel has the best record even though Aneesa has won more (despite losing some).
Winning only 3 isn't nearly as impressive. Jordan was 3-0 after beating swift then next episode he lost. Wes was 8-0 on the ruins until Cohutta beat him. Brandon was 3-0 until Derrick took him out.

Brandon was 3-0 until Derrick took him out.[/QUOTE] Fair enough, and being 8 and 0 is damn impressive as is 11 and 4. I am looking at this from a statistics perspective, I am not saying I am more impressed by Frank, but at the end of the day he stands as one of only a few men undefeated in eliminations at this current point in time and had he continued/not been forced to quite I only see him winning more. And Chet quit because Frank was overpowering him so much that Chet was in a position that he injured himself. But as I said above I'm not interested in discussing the merits of their wins, only who has the best record and following the logic used previously to give the female title to Laurel (best ratio), then Frank would have it. (Assuming no-one from any seasons I haven't watched has better that.
