Inner Circle or Elimination rounds.
So for the people that have been watching challenges Forever(and everyone else too)which Challenge elimination format do you prefer? The Inner Circle where 3 people get to just vote someone off. Or elimination rounds where 2 people go into the Gauntlet/Duel/Exile/Inferno and fight to stay. For me I would say the Inner Circle but I like the Elimination rounds better. How about you all?

I think I prefer the Elimination rounds. However, it might be refreshing to switch things up a bit. Maybe they could come up with a hybrid.
It would be cool to combine both concepts. The inner circle would vote one person into an elimination round, and that person would get to pick their opponent (like a Duel). I think the Inner Circle by itself is too political and boring. At least elimination rounds allow a person on the chopping block to redeem themselves. If they kick ***, they deserve to stay. Edit: Damn, Insider beat me to the punch.
I love that idea!! But would they really bring the inner circle back after this many years?

I would say have the inner circle vote 2 people into an elimination match.
I say they draw straws to go into the Duel/Inferno/Pitt that way there can't be much more conniving than is already going on...no picking who you want to go against or anything like that...And I would just say that the Male and Female winner of each challenge is exempt from drawing a straw that week. LOL...May not be as exciting as what has been seen, but then again imagine the uproar if certain people were forced to go against each other.
I think it would be exciting because it might lead to match-ups for elimination that might not happen otherwise. I would enjoy also seeing an innercircle voting both players in- just so they could throw in kenny and evan together!
I would love to see an inner circle with points. 'Cause when someone gets voted off and they dont have the lowest points, it almost always causes drama. Or a scoreboard and the top 3 highest points (inner circle) votes someone into the gauntlet/inferno. Do you vote in someone who's a threat to the inner circle? or dead weight?..I seriously hope they do something like that.
Too hard to decide. I have always loved the point system and staright vote-offs are kinda nice, but every now and then you want to see an all out brawl between two people to see who deserves to stay.

I like Stacee's idea. Maybe they could spin a wheel that has everyone's name on it or something. I want to see more chance and less scheming.
Stacee's idea, while interesting, isn't that fair either. To be honest, how fair is it to see someone who is carrying the team, go into an elimination for no reason. The best method would be points with the lowest automatically going in.

Yeah I would like to see them do that sometime.

its better when its political because that creates more drama, thus making the show more entertaining. Like in the gauntlet 1, when Road Rules did the secret ballots with the 3, 2, 1 system. It was an awful method to pick someone into the gauntlet but it was REALLY entertaining since the people did not know who voted for them.

I do like the drama, etc. But I was just saying if there were ever a "fair" method, point systems would be the only way.

[quote=molds13;61649]Not necessarily. One challenge could play out completely different to one person than another.[/quote] True, but then there will always be someone who finds something unjust. Straight statistics or scores would be the only [U]completely[/U] fair way.

If they do it by an inner circle, it becomes too political. If it's done by points, someone could complain that they challenges are better suited to others. If it's done by a vote, it could become a matter of veterans vs rookies.

Any format will be unfair to somebody, but honestly straight statstics don't lie, so that's why I said if they were to ever go for a "fair" format, it should be points.
