re: No MTV Challenge: Ride or Die thread??

I don’t know, I think the Big Brother group has always tried to work together.

Wasn’t Analyse one of the ones Fess was supposedly cuddling up with too?

Seems pretty likely they were all involved imo


ETA: And I’m sorry I can’t write out her name without cracking up. Brett from Big Brother would be such an awesome addition to the Challenge cast

Aneesa’s partner was sent home because he had COVID. Apparently they started the show and some people even noticed a random guy in a shot on episode 1.

I guess he wasn’t cleared as quickly as Kaycee and her brother and had to go home.

Jordan was supposed to be with Nia but she had some medical issue (not COVID, I think something with her intestines?) and had to leave. I don’t know if they were in the house or if they were always supposed to be late additions and she got sick while isolating.

Better than just going home like Nam.

Damn, time is not easy on women who lead rough lives. Veronica lookin wreeeeeecked.

These folks are so dumb for having the girl run and jump. The only way this will work is it one of the guys full speed sprint and just spears their partner Goldberg style.

O shite Nelly finally got a daily challenge win!!!

It was pretty sad but the guy is tiny. Josh throwing those medicine balls that one year was pretty embarrassing.

Finally getting to watch. Stream of consciousness post:

Jordan and Tori already in bed together. That didn't take long.

Man, Darrell handled that height challenge like a boss. And I know Veronica is a female legend in the game, but man she sucks now. I hate that two of my favorites (Darrell and Jordan) have such shitty partners.

I have no idea how you're supposed to get this fricking flag. I wonder if you can catch your partner and then try to throw them toward it.

Of course, Jordan figures out the game and is the first to get the flag. And Anessa is obviously heavy enough to swing them far enough.

I love that the other teams just hang there hundreds of feet up until the last team is done.

Seems like Fessy should've been able to grab that flag.

Everybody is laughing at Tommy is saying he should've grabbed the flag instead of doing whatever the frick he did, but he was too high to grab it though. The person on top looks like their arms can't reach it once they swing out.

Nurys even looks good during the challenge. And Nelson's hair annoys the shite out of me.

One of the best things they did on the Challenge IMO is when they started putting a club on the premises.

I get the plan Olivia "came up with" (after they were already told they were going in), but it's potentially not smart IMO and people will see through it. And I don't get why people are gunning so hard at Horacio and Olivia. They are a good team, yeah, but they would be even better allies. They're a good chance to win more daily challenges. And Horacio isn't stupid. He knows that words don't mean shite and still expects that he may be going down there.

Everybody wants to take big shite about making big moves, but nobody ever wants to do it. The rookies could definitely have the numbers, but Nurys let Nelson talk her into almost all rookie/rookie teams.

Darrell: "I'm not scared of eliminations...eliminations don't put no fear on my heart. I like them way more than daily challenges because there ain't gonna be no crane in that bitch." Man I love Darrell.

The plan worked out. Now I wonder if people will figure it out moving forward. And man, Kim is fricking gigantically tall. He's almost literally two feet taller than Colleen.

Kim and Colleen better win this elimination. There's no way Tommy is strong enough to hold up another human being for an extended amount of time.

Yup, there it is. He can't even lift her the first time. It does kinda suck that the rope isn't slightly longer though.

It reminds me of that elimination a few challenges ago when Tori and Aneesa had to tip that cage of medicine balls over then throw them through the squares. Aneesa put her arse into it and flipped the cage no problem, and Tori just straight up couldn't do it. She wasn't big enough. And by the time she figured out a way to get it over, she was way too far behind.

Surprised TJ threw Tommy a bone with some nice words at the end. That was kinda nice.

Kim and Colleen are a pretty strong team. They should team with Horacio and Olivia and try to pick up one or two strong rookies and make some moves.

Previews next week is a rowing challenge. I swear if Jordan wins that shite with only one hand, I'm gonna laugh my arse off. And what's even funnier is that I kinda expect him to.

Jordan pulling that flag one handed while somehow holding onto Aneesa’s mountainous arse and moving her enough to get to it was incredible. Dude is so good at this stuff.

I typically think most of these challenges are pretty easy, and it’s embarrassing how much these people suck, but yea this one was super tough, of course he did it, dude is a spider monkey at this type of shite

Horacio is in a really good spot because a lot of these guys have really average partners and won’t be able to win often. Kim, Jordan, Darrell, and to a lesser extent, Fessy, er Faysal.

Nurys seems pretty damn good and is calm so far, so Nelson is at a huge advantage.

Tommy was worth taking a flyer on but he’s clearly not cut out for the show. He’s just too small and weak. I have to say that I am surprised that a guy who can do back flips with such ease lacked the core strength to pull the rope, but he’s maybe 5’4” and 140 pounds at best. He just won’t be competitive against most of these guys.

I suspect if they had a physical challenge, production would have either asked Kim to go easy on him or switched it to a puzzle at the last minute.
