They need to go back to the last place team getting automatically sent to elimination and then vote on the challenger. I hate watching weak teams get dragged along just because they are willing to vote with the pack.



Yeah I 100% agree on this.

Anything to take the group think out of it. Although the big group would still just keep voting in the Wes or whatever. But at least he wouldn’t be going against his allies like CT or Kyle, which they can set up under this format.

Although the skulls factor would have to be adjusted because then the power alliance would just vote themselves in against the weak teams. That does still carry some risk though, so it wouldn’t be as easy as it seems.


I just think making it as performance based as possible is when it’s most fun. These big groups totally running the game is always boring, even when it’s players I like doing it.

What makes the daily challenge champs getting immunity and the last place team going automatically in so great of a format is because even good teams get games they suck at and then you always have the possibility of people throwing missions.

And that shite just makes for excellent TV.

Perhaps my favorite moment ever on the Challenge was when Evan threw the daily challenge on Rivals 1 to try to kncom CT out of the game.

Nehemiah, who hated Evan with a passion, was paired with him and had no idea it was about to go down.

It was a water zip line challenge and Evan just flopped off the handle way too early and then leasurly swam to get last place.

When he fell and it was obvious what he was doing, he just yells to the whole cast: "which way is the Jungle?!?"

Afterward, Nehemiah was so insanely pissed. He says to TJ: "this game is full of a bunch of bitches... And I'm playing with the biggest bitch of all."


It's probably the funniest thing I've ever seen on The Challenge in what was probably the best season the show ever had.


That moment is classic MTV Challenge. I think with the influx of all these big brother people, the producers have taken a lot of the classic challenge strategies out of the game and made social bullshite and politicking without repercussions way too prevelant now.

Wes and his partner would have easily won that ice water challenge and he could havd totally flipped the game. Instead, he does great and then is left begging to be a "janitor" in fessy's group.
