The Challenge: Battle of the Exes - Spoiler Discussion

Im sure we will find out soon enough who won. Based on who buys new items.

[QUOTE=r3iKo;300389]You think Mark is strong? Just because you look big, or cut does not mean you're strong by any means. I highly doubt Mark does any power lifting, and I bet Johnny hardly does either, but I still think he has the upper hand.[/QUOTE] The guy looks like a frigging body builder, he gives Arnold Schwarzenegger a run for his money, appearance wise that is. You cant be that huge and not be strong, you have to lift heavy weights to get that look. Anyways I dont know, I'm just going off by my own assumptions and Robin's claims further lead me to believe he did throw it. But we'll just wait and see, if it looked pathetic like Ev/Kelly Anne's ruins elimination with the strings then it would be obvious but if it looked like a tough battle then he might have actually tried and just lost.

[QUOTE=lulax3;282208]They got shots before leaving for Costa rica. I remember jaz and laurel writing about two weeks before leaving for rivals. If its for the next challenge not liking Mandy and drama maria. I wish instead of getting them we could have priscilla,Alexandra, Sam and even jem(NOLA).[/QUOTE] Love or hate Cara Maria, you have to admit that the last 3 episodes before the final would have been just as pointless as the first 6 if she wasn't there.

I'm surprised they're still gonna have a challenge with the Tonya drama.

:dash2:

As much as I love CT and Laurel, them paired together is the ultimate team, no one can beat them.

Yeah I didn't see it either, but it's nice to see Diem on it. But one guy/girl couple and a gay couple it looks like we're missing. I guess it's not a couple that uses social networking too often though. As long as it's not like Kina/Randy or something like that, I am curious as to who it could be now.

[QUOTE=IWhipMyHair;286556]I dont get why they'd drop Nany and Adam and keep people like Sarah and Vinny..[/QUOTE] I have concluded that no matter who they cast, there will be people asking why X and not Y.

[QUOTE=jefflevi89;287575]Wes was 10-2 in elimination rounds coming into this challenge with his only fair loss being to Cohutta as there was no way Mandi was going to be able to keep up with Evelyn in an exile.[/QUOTE] Wes beat Evelyn on FM1 when her partner was Danny, who I think is stronger than Luke. And Wes' partner on Fresh Meat 1 was Casey, who very much weaker than Mandi is. Wes could have won the Exile against Ev and Luke if he would have actually tried like he did on FM1, but I think he had lost mentally at that point. Him and Mandi could have been a very good team in an Exile because Mandi is an excellent runner, but Wes quit, which to me makes him the reason he lost FM2, not Mandi.

[QUOTE=townie;289633]CT's "terrible social game" hasn't cost him one challenge. Inferno 1: Mike decided to not go all out and try to win the Life Shield on the final day because he didn't want the pressure of using it to save Coral. Coral won it, throws in David, and she slowed their team down in the final. The Real World could've had a stacked all guy team in the final. [/QUOTE] They lost because of a puzzle that NOBODY could figure out on the Real World team, and David was an idiot, he wouldnt have helped on the puzzle. Coral didnt slow them down. David was the weakest link in The Real World team.

[QUOTE=TheFeedMachi;290349]Molds said they were eliminated. I would believe her on these matters.[/QUOTE] Yeah, but I assume she said that because they popped up on social networking sites and within hours of her post the other teams did too.

Yeah, I think she is giving us hints lol. I guess I was kind of right, if Davis (RW: Denver) got a call to be on the next challenge but said no then I guess if it's a pair challenge, they were counting his kisses with Brooke. Or maybe it's just an individual or team challenge but they are just throwing exs and passed hook-ups in order to cause drama.

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;285029]Who would Tyler's partner be though? Unless they allowed same sex couples as well, it would be interesting to see how they'd fair. I think Laurel and Evelyn would be an interesting wild card.[/QUOTE] That's what I was wondering as well. We don't know the format yet though so he could still be a possibility.

[url=http://vevmo.com/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=12031][img]http://vevmo.com/imagehosting/18234eb2cef386164.png[/img][/url] I may be reading too far into this, but seems like Leroy is anticipating having Thanksgiving with his family...The challenge definitely won't be done by then.

Nice to see Rachel and Mark back. The cast looks pretty good, better than Rivals IMO. It's not as clear cut as to who will control the game, which will hopefully make for an unpredictable season.

I'm interested in the format of this season's final. In my mind, Kenny and Wes were the real winners of rivals. Hopefully this season they won't have an entire day of grueling competition, and then disregard the results of that competition and run a 15 minute scavenger hunt to determine the winner. What a farce!

I don't know how accurate IMDB is, ha, but i was browsing over there and someone said that Scott Herman (brooklyn) is on this challenge. If that's the case, I could see him doing pretty well. Again, I dont know how accurate it is, so until molds confirms it, it is just speculation.

[QUOTE=gamer73;289379]Mark isn't a regular either and Abram was in a final more recent than Mark was.[/QUOTE] I'd still prefer Abram, CT, and Diem. And of course Ty and Emily. But since the final will probably consist of 4 teams, I'd take Mark over Johnny.

I still think Camila will hold up better in a final than Robin will. I also don't think CT has that bad of a social game...he plays fairly well with the cards he's dealt and I say this as someone who isn't a big CT fan. On Rivals he had no other play than to go after the girls but he got screwed three times because the three girls teams he could've pulled to his corner were A) Eliminated before they could help him (Aneesa/Robin) B) The subordinate partner (Mandi) in one of the tightest guy/girl alliances in the game (Johnny/Tyler/Jenn) or C) Approached too late in the game where it wouldn't have meant anything (Laurel). When he's on a challenge with so many guys who are so tight be it JEK or Johnny/Mark/Abe on this one he really can't make a big social play. JEK played Rivals perfectly in that first they turned him into an island so he couldn't rally the numbers to salt up their game, and then they lucked out in the end, a better social game wouldn't have helped him. My one hope for CT on this challenge is that he had a hand in sending Wes home. I'd rather Kenny do it, but CT is the next best thing in my mind. Also, townie, was what Abram did on the Inferno not a calculated risk? I recall Tina and Veronica saying that if the guys didn't vote their way they'd sit down at the starting line. He probably felt they had more of chance if their girls actually tried...

Im happy to see Mark out now everyone thinking hes unstoppable can quiet down. This elimination was hopefully physical maybe girl v girl guy v guy or something. It be awesome if it was CT team vs Mark team in something physical

[QUOTE=Blue123;300390]The guy looks like a frigging body builder, he gives Arnold Schwarzenegger a run for his money, appearance wise that is.

You do not have to do heavy weights to look like Mark though. I'm fairly confident he does a lot of core/ab workouts with upper body. Johnny looks like he focus solely on his arms. He should be on Jersey Shore.

So, do we have a speculated cast yet? Mark, Mandi, Nany, and Cara Maria for sure so far?

I don't know why people are still on this couples thing....

I really hope Laurel and CT are on this Challenge. I became a huge fan of CT on Rivals and I really want to see him finally win a Challenge. As for Laurel she's been to the finals 3 straight times and I want to see her finally win.

[QUOTE=TheCollegeD;285796]i'm really curious about NOLA, jemmye has been sending very elusive tweets and her and knight haven't tweeted since late last night. Also Sahar tweeted late last night that she was very excited and [B]Eric hasn't tweeted since last night [/B]either....It's a stretch but i'm sure BMP would try to get someone from NOLA on this challenge.[/QUOTE] Eric is definitely not in Miami. He's in Richmond, KY because he's doing a comedy show at my school tonight lol

Based off the always reliable Molds cast thread we can see that there will be a gay and lesbian couple on this challenge. The lesbian couple being Anessa and Rachel, but the gay couple is up in the air becaue the only 3 guys that really come to mind are Ryan, Davis, and Tyler. Ryan hooked up with both Davis and Tyler, but Davis has stated he was done with Challenges and Tyler was in LA at the time when the cast departed. Also, we got one last Guy/Girl couple yet to be named I really hope it's Danny and Melinda but I wouldn't put money on that.

[QUOTE=LaneV95;286542]Well said Molds, well said.[/QUOTE] Molds didn't say that... she concurred with it.

Dunbar has never been sent home before the halfway point. Island-Lost his key in the last episode Duel 2-Sent home episode 7 Ruins-Sent home 2nd to Last Episode Cutthroat-Won the challenge Point being Dunbar will not be home anytime soon.

[QUOTE=TSPKM2;287591]Wes beat Evelyn on FM1 when her partner [B]was Danny, who I think is stronger than Luke.[/B] And Wes' partner on Fresh Meat 1 was Casey, who very much weaker than Mandi is. Wes could have won the Exile against Ev and Luke if he would have actually tried like he did on FM1, but I think he had lost mentally at that point. Him and Mandi could have been a very good team in an Exile because Mandi is an excellent runner, but Wes quit, which to me makes him the reason he lost FM2, not Mandi.[/QUOTE] Danny may be stronger, but those exiles are all about endurance and Danny has none whatsoever. Dude got KILLED against Davis of all people in Inferno 3. I seriously feel Danny may be one of the worst players ever, maybe just maybe above Vinny.

[QUOTE=erodwhtboy;290152]Im happy to see Mark out now everyone thinking hes unstoppable can quiet down[/QUOTE] I never thought Mark was unstoppable. I thought with the social game he has he would always be at the end. Mark is like a Brad or Kenny, their social games are so good they always are at the end becuase everyone likes them.

[QUOTE=lulax3;282208]They got shots before leaving for Costa rica. [/QUOTE] Completely agree, I need a break from Cara and Mandi, get some other girls on the show. I guess Mandi gets an automatic bid for the next show after getting a **** job but common, too much of both of them already.

[QUOTE=VCR14;282460]Mike has been spending time with his new girlfriend in CT. Don't attribute his lack of tweeting to[B] the "testing" that seems to be going on.[/B][/QUOTE] What do you mean by "testing"? I am not sure I understand the reference. He, however, has been tweeting less often and doesn't do it a lot when he's on the road like with the internship stuff or when he was on a mega-booking in Florida.

The speculated possibilities so far are not making me excited whatsoever. Tyler, Johnny, Adam R., Leroy, Wes, Robin, Sarah, Paula, Aneesa, Mandi, Cara Maria, Laurel... Why don't they just call it Rivals 2...the sequel.

This could be a stretch but could Aiiiya possibly be on the next challenge. [url=http://vevmo.com/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=11986][img]http://vevmo.com/imagehosting/32034eaf58cac8de5.jpg[/img][/url]

I'm kinda excite at the possibility that Knight and Jemmye and KA may not be apart of the cast...it opens up some room for other couples like CT/Diem....amd maybe people we havent thought of.

[QUOTE=IWhipMyHair;286556]I dont get why they'd drop Nany and Adam and keep people like Sarah and Vinny..[/QUOTE] They probably didn't want 6 las vegas people. even though I wouldn't have minded watching 6 of them try to ally against the veterans.

[QUOTE=jesses_girl;286771]Just because cast members know each other and hang out outside of the show does not mean they will have each other's back in the competition.[/QUOTE] I agree but when you actually train someone for a challenge I think it is far more likely that you will. I am quite confident that CT and Vinny are going into this with an alliance and will have each other back at the start.

I don't think it's a BOTS 3. Why would the guys keep around CT in the vote off then. He would be gone by now.

[QUOTE=jones10389;289370]I could see Wes quitting and just going home. Not saying he did at all but if it was like the Ruins all over again where he just kept getting sent in I can see him leaving rather then keep going in. Molds, is that a possibility?[/QUOTE] You mean like show up, realize he sucks at athletic competitions, and then spin it to make himself look good by bragging up all of his "multi-million dollar investments" going on back home that he needs to go attend to because the challenges are a waste of his time at the end of the day?

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;286055]As much as I love CT and Laurel, them paired together is the ultimate team, no one can beat them.[/QUOTE] Multiple people have said it probably won't be a pairs challenge. They could very well be playing against each other.

I hope the guy/girl couple is Brianna/Joey or Frank/Jillian. The only people I'm not looking forward to seeing is Dunbar, Sarah, and Vinny.

[QUOTE=Ch@llengeFan;286826]I agree but when you actually train someone for a challenge I think it is far more likely that you will. I am quite confident that CT and Vinny are going into this with an alliance and will have each other back at the start.[/QUOTE] They should im pretty sure Johnny and Mark are going in with an agreeement and i think Abe will team with them. Possibly Wes.

I doubt it but it is possible Ty&Emily are home. Ty isint a social network user and Emily has her scial networks updated by someone so it would be hard to tell when they are out.

This is really CT's challenge to lose now, but I thought that last year too. Then Adam screwed that up.
