House needs more STRAT.

Wes in his prime was awesome for that reason. Young roided up buck (who was actually good) came in and screwed with everyone. We need another wes

Rookies in ascending skill/strength level

Then veteran in ascending skill/strength





They need to make a winner take all, will force people to not want to be in in a challenge with good teams if possible. Now they are just all playing for their paycheck

this would probably be the greatest troll/long con in history. It would also get a lot of people insanely mad.

Adam has won a climbing challenge against AIDS
An eating challenge against AIDS
And a pulling contest against two horrible competitors...so horrible they were able to take a decent break midway through

He told Brittany he loved her halfway through the climbing challenge.

He did whatever the **** that stripping was.

Citing talking circles around 4. Jonna as a good indicator of strategic sense is misleading. 4. Jonna is worthless.

Let's pump the brakes on the awesome alpha rookie talk.

won. won. won.

you are what your record says you are

They'll probably have the team come back from exile for like final 6. That's about what they do on all the shows they stole the idea from.

Does anyone watch Redneck Island? It used to be like Redneck Survivor, but now it's turned into Redneck Challenge.

The only real format differences are they choose teams randomly in the beginning & when a team goes into "The Pit" it is guy v guy & girl v girl. The 2 winners form a team, & the 2 losers are kicked out. Pretty interesting twist.

Also, even stupider contestants, even more drinking, probably slightly hotter females (not saying much), & Stone Cold (plus Eric Decker's wife, although she doesn't add much).

Anyway, I highly recommend for Challenge fans.

And you basically told her 5 minutes after seeing her on tv. And then like 10 more times

Again strong case of anti new person bias. We get it, if they are not built like ct/Leeroy they are aids and a waste of a spot. When I get some free time I'm going to quote some of the early talk about Jordan.

using "4. Jonna" twice in one sentence has me giggling to myself.

Well Jordan is a waste of a spot so that'd be a waste of time.

BJLTNYK is right. Adam's wins are the equivalent of an NBA WC team beating Boston, Philadelphia, and the Knicks and using that as a referendum on their talent. It tells us nothing.

Blurting out "I love you" to Brittany was a super lol Freudian slip. Since then he's been passive-aggressive mind****ing her and whining to others about how clingy she is. That's beta behavior, not alpha. Think CT or Bananas would ever pull **** like that?

The stripping/dancing was just weird given the lighting and the setting.

He's also not particularly interesting nor clever like our heroes. That could change with time as he gets more comfortable.

Adam's physical strength and the fact that he doesn't seem particularly dumb like some of the other strong guys could propel them deep though. Smart veteran teams may recognize this and continue to throw them in citing "newbie" status, so that may hurt their chances.

RIP Knight. Aside from maybe CT and Bananas there's nobody who brought more to the show's entertainment value (at least intentionally).

CT did that to Diem a bunch of times and I'm sure Bananas has done it too since he's basically currently doing it to Nany. What are you talking about?

Tuq,

Only the first statement was directed at him. Just for the luls. The rest was just a general statement.

Overall I somewhat agree with his sentiment. But I think as an crossover mtver rookie he's fairly good. All things considered. But obviously not goat rookie r even close

I think Adam will be fine on future challenges, once you get the air of knowing you at least belong somewhat and don't have to worry every single time you don't win the initial event you can probably stop giving so much of a ****. If I were him I would be trying to **** Laurel at every chance in between seasons.

There's a difference between me wanting to smash Brittany as a viewer of a television show and him blurting out I love you in the middle of a lol wall climbing challenge w a girl he basically trashes every chance he gets.

You are terrible as a viewer of this show.

The problem with this season is that there's so little strategy involved. No voting, so it's just so dependent on who is the power couple and who loses that week. Guaranteeing 2 strong teams in an Elim requires a strong team to lose, then a team to win power couple that is capable of making a big move, so we're most likely going to see at least one weak team in each Dome until they're all gone.

Still very surprised we do not have a combo of Cory/Brian and Jenny from RW Ex-plosion. The whole exes thing worked there too.


From AYTO Season 2 - You are almost definitely gonna see Layton on Challenges. Brianna seems like a fun, partyer type they might want to bring along.

Kind of makes me miss the draw and the kill card

The flip side is that this format most efficiently eliminates irrelevant participants, as opposed to having to suffer through weeks of Preston for example. 4 eliminations in we've lost the 4 most hapless teams. As the team automatically sent to elimination will be stronger going forward, there will be a lot more strategy in who the power couple sends in. Jay and Jenna's team is really the only remaining duo that the others would gladly go in against.

One aspect I do not like of this format is the male-female dynamic in the dome. It reduces the chances of seeing H2H dome battles such as Bananas vs. Wes / Jordan.

Nvm

Yeah, I think Male-Female pairs is the WOAT format just because so often the best teams are just determined by who has the strongest girl. Landon/Carley being the only exception to this rule I can think of.

Luckily I've hooked up with a Laurel in my day. MTV give me a call

resticky

Male and female teams are less exciting IMO. That stupid bungy challenge is boring as hell. We need a big team challenge again. I would like Champs vs Challengers, Vets vs Rookies, or Good Guys vs Bad-asses.

This. We need less talk about "statistics" from Zach haha.
