The Challenge: Rivals II - Trailer (Spoilers)

[QUOTE=Imjustsayin;351055]DAMN!!! Well then, even though I already stated this in my other post, I will do so again. I understand Diem was/is taking hormone replacement medication but, I think there is more to it than that. Obviously I did not do such extensive research as you did but, that is not going to change the fact that I think there was something more to it I am entitled to my opinion and that is it. I don't think your a liar, or incapable of realizing BS, or have any particular agenda. I was just stating what I thought.[B] I just feel like Diem makes a lot of excuses, regardless.[/B] Ok? No need to get so upset/ By the way, love it that you used, "just sayin"[/QUOTE] No, it's not OK, and I'm not upset... just damn[I] angry [/I]with you because your opinion, to which you are clearly entitled, helps make a joke of this forum. I hate it when there is good reason for the cast and MTV to read tripe here and then have a good laugh at our expense. Diem has made no excuse. although you clearly suggest that she has. Where did you see it? I've not quoted her in anything I've written, nor is she the foundation of the information I have regarding events that may have occurred during taping.

Jesus CT, every girl I thought he hooks up with he does. And my god Ana, dont know what night that was but shes straddling him in the closet, I didnt think she would be doing that

I loved Cooke on her Real World season, and this most recent preview featuring her and Naomi made me respect her so much more. The fact that she valued Naomi's friendship to the point that she was okay to go home shows that she's a genuine girl. Although this is just a small preview of the season, I really feel like Cooke is going to be the strong but respectful competitor. Reminds me of Genesis a bit. Perhaps I'm wrong though. Is there any sort of update on if Naomi's dad ended up making it through the heart issues? I don't have her on twitter, facebook, or any of the social media outlets. I feel for her.

I advice anyone that doesn't want to be spoiled NOT to check out the Extended Peek. It gave away everything; all the important parts of the episode: The winner, the elimination, the drama, the whole gist. If you watch it you might as well skip the season premiere.

I was ready to cringe when I read their cast bio, but I am glad I was proven wrong.

CT/Zach were exercising together in the preview so they may have joined together that early on.

[QUOTE=TheFeedMachi;351080]Try posting this in a non-spoiler thread.[/QUOTE] I know this is a spoiler thread but even as a spoiler reader there's still a suspense I get while watching the show because we don't know how things play out exactly. What's left to find out is the voting process and whoever won doesn't matter to me since we know Derek/Robb vs Tyrie/Dunbar. This SP just gave out a little more than I thought they should have. Just my opinion.

Major props to her for being concerned about messing up Cooke's first challenge.

Lmao at CT getting into Frank's head so bad that Frank tried punching him even though it looked like Frank doesn't know how to throw a punch.

But, I was talking about Diem in general. I feel like it is in her character to make excuses. Again. I will say that I do not know anything about Hormone Replacement Therapy/ Maybe I went to far when I said it was BS. But, I don't understand why she had to respond with CT. There were other men there, why him? And I stated in my initial post that I felt like them being tired of discussing the situation was a joke because I don't understand how they could be tired of discussing something that they keep doing? Is it all for TV?

Naomi and Cooke handled that situation very well. I respect them both. So happy to finally see Cooke on a challenge and my prayers go out to Naomi's family. That's terrible :(

[B]Is it all for TV?[/B][/QUOTE] At this point it probably is.

Poor Naomi, it looked like she really wanted to be there to compete.

Great exclusive sneak peek! There is bound to be a whole lot of drama this upcoming season, and I cannot wait for it. My heart goes out to Naomi, and I hope everything is alright with her and her family; and props to Cooke (she's probably going to become a new favorite of mine during this season).

The party scene made me think of older challenges. A lot more fun, less cutthroat. Great season ahead!

Judging from the exclusive sneak peek I have the feeling that this season will go down as one of the great ones.

[QUOTE=Euroslavia;351090]Amen, that's a good point as well. Major props to her for being concerned about messing up Cooke's first challenge.[/QUOTE] Truthfully, her staying around would have really ruined Cooke's first challenge. No offense, but with naomi's lack of athletic ability, Im sure they would have been easy pickings. I'm glad Cooke is here. Considering I doubt she will have many chances to do a challenge, I'm glad she getting a good run on this one.

I'm pretty positive that Knight is in a alliance with CT/Wes... mainly due to the fact that CT and Knight are really good friends.

[QUOTE=Fullback12;351246]I'm pretty positive that Knight is in a alliance with CT/Wes... mainly due to the fact that CT and Knight are really good friends.[/QUOTE] Ya that and the fact that Knight doesnt seem to talk to Frank anymore, and Knight goes against Zach in elimination who also doesnt talk to Frank anymore, doubt they wanted to go in against each other. And both those teams are friends with CT/Wes. Knight still talks to Johnny though so I think Frank did something bad to them

I think johnny may have actually grown up and leave the challenge bs on the challenge and just carry on in his own life.

Yes finally Bananas didn't take things on the challenge to his personal life... wish he could've helped his partner do the same thing.

[QUOTE=Fullback12;351262]Yes finally Bananas didn't take things on the challenge to his personal life... wish he could've helped his partner do the same thing.[/QUOTE] Most of them dont, only people like Derrick and Paula do that, and I guess Frank the whiny idiot does too.

So really the entire Zach,Frank,Knight alliance crumbled this season haha... So it's going to be CT/Wes,Zach/Trey,Knight/Preston and maybe/most likely Leroy/Ty

[QUOTE=Blue123;351263]Most of them dont, only people like Derrick and Paula do that, and I guess Frank the whiny idiot does too.[/QUOTE] haha this is true. Derrick and Paula have done so many challenges, that they can't even differentiate their real life and the challenges. It's like Inception for them.

[QUOTE=Fullback12;351264]So really the entire Zach,Frank,Knight alliance crumbled this season haha... So it's going to be CT/Wes,Zach/Trey,Knight/Preston and maybe/most likely Leroy/Ty[/QUOTE] Does it really matter which guys are pared with who? At the end of the day the girls decide their fate.

Is that confirmed or still speculation?

[QUOTE=TheCloser;351273]Does it really matter which guys are pared with who? At the end of the day the girls decide their fate.[/QUOTE] lol yeah because the girls are the masters of manipulation on these challenges :highly_amused:

What are you talking about the girls just basically go to the alliance where they know the most people in it. The girls really don't decide the guys fate.

[QUOTE=Fullback12;351297]What are you talking about the girls just basically go to the alliance where they know the most people in it. The girls really don't decide the guys fate.[/QUOTE] There is a rumor that part of the change in the game rules this time is that the guys determine things for the girls and vice versa. If so, then the girls are very much in the mix since they decide the guys fate of who goes into Elimination.
