Agreed. Although we'll see if tahey are smart enough to realize that (doubtful).
Also, for the final, I imagine it would pretty much have to be the bloodlines paired together. Ultimately, that's kinda the point of the show, and it would be pretty stupid if the bloodlines were paired against each other and competing for money. The only reason I could see them doing that would be to set up future shows with some of these same contestants. But really, you can do that anyway since they're already on the show getting exposure.
Also, I noticed last night that Nany's batshit crazy cousin Nicole looked less stupid t han she normally does. She must've drawn her eyebrows on more normal that day.

If they do that, it gives a big advantage to the all-male teams.
I'm still a little surprised Cara Maria didn't pick Leroy first, but having Bananas on your team is never a bad thing either.
No reason not to wait until the end for the pairs of twins, since both teams are getting pretty equal competitors.

How so? If I was a male and my bloodline was a female on the other team for a female elimination. Its perfect incentive to throw the challenge, ensure her team wins so she is safe and so am I.
There may not be incentive for whole teams to throw it but there is certainly incentive for individuals to try and throw it.

Yeah, the male/female teams and the male/female eliminations could get tricky.
Leroy certainly doesn't want to win the next time it's a female elimination, the other team is almost certainly going to vote in Candice with the hopes that it takes Leroy out as well.
For the male/male and female/female teams, it doesn't really matter, but it could for the split ones.

Exactly. Leroy is the perfect example. Even if they find out he is throwing it and put him in next elimination, nobody would want to face him.

Leroy is the perfect example, yes, but he's also the only one that mis-matched with their bloodline. At least off the top of my head.

KellyAnne/Anthony
Cara/Jamie
Really just the guy girl combos

I meant he's the only one I can think of where a really strong competitor (unless swimming is involved) is paired with who appears to be a really weak one.
Most other pairings are two apparently strong competitors or two weak ones, even the other guy/girl combos.

Kelly Anne and Cara Maria are arguably the two strongest females on the show (and at worst 2 of the top 4).
As for Leroy, on the male elimination days, he is largely fine until the final 4-5 guys are around. His team won't throw him in and the other team won't want to piss him off.
As for female elimination days, he will always have a target on his back. If he wins, the other team may send his cousin in. If he loses, the other team may send his cousin in as well. He can't play the game like Wes in the Ruins.
As for the final, I wonder if they are kind of winging it. I agree that they can't have the all male teams take on the all female or coed teams. I think they may do Blue vs Red when there are 10 people left. 10 minutes into the next episode we are down to 20 people, then the Boises come in and we are back to 22. 6 more episodes until the final?

Except if he loses on a female elimination day, his cousin is on the winning team and can't be voted in.

And this elimination has no drama since we've seen the winner in previews for future episodes.
