Challenge Interesting Facts

[QUOTE=nevidcm;441270]Robb/Marie beat Alton/Nany on BOTS Robb/Derek beat Tyrie/Dunbar on Rivals 2 Latoya beat Jemmye on Free Agents[/QUOTE] I always forget about latoya/Jemmye lol That shows how much I care about either one of them even though it was a good elimination round.

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;441276]Is Vegas 2 the fastest amount of time it took for the entire cast to do a season? With only four challenges from Rivals 1-Rivals 2.[/QUOTE] New Orleans also did it in 4 (Julie/Jamie on Extreme Challenge to Matt on the Gauntlet). RR The Quest did it in 5 (Adam/Jisela on Seasons to Sophia on BOTS2). Boston did it in 6 (Sean on All Stars to Genesis on Battle of the Sexes). Austin did it in 12 (Wes/Johanna/Danny/Melinda on FM to Lacey on Seasons). If Averey and Joi appear on the next Challenge, Portland will take the record with only 3 Challenges (Rivals 2 to Challenge 26).

So no other seasons sent every cast member to a Challenge?

[QUOTE=KIsOpenDoors;441313]Very interesting. So no other seasons sent every cast member to a Challenge?[/QUOTE] Nope. Just for reference, here's how each season looks (from memory so forgive me for any mistakes.) * = 1 cast member was only on RR: All Stars so it half counts heh. New York: 4/7 Los Angeles: 3/9 San Francisco: 3/8* London: 4/7 Miami: 4/7 Boston: 7/7 Seattle: 6/7 Hawaii: 4/7 New Orleans: 7/7 B2NY: 4/7 Chicago: 3/7 Las Vegas: 6/7 Paris: 5/7 San Diego: 6/8 Philadelphia: 4/7 Austin: 7/7 Key West: 6/7 Denver: 6/7 Sydney: 6/8 Hollywood: 5/9 Brooklyn: 4/8 Cancun: 6/8 DC: 2/8 New Orleans 2: 4/8 Las Vegas 2: 8/8 San Diego 2: 6/7 St. Thomas: 6/7 Portland: 6/8 USA 1: 2/5 USA 2: 3/5 Europe: 3/5 Islands: 2/5 Northern Trail: 5/6 Australia: 5/6 Latin America: 3/6 Semester at Sea: 4/6 MVT: 4/6 Quest: 7/7 Campus Crawl: 6/7 (full original cast has been on a challenge) South Pacific: 7/9 X-Treme: 8/9 Viewer's Revenge: 4/6 (excludes pit crew members and alumni) It's actually interesting that Hollywood has 5 people on the challenges since they haven't been on in like 6 years and I guess most didn't last very long. It's also interesting that only 3 Chicago cast members have been on the challenges but chances are that season is up there with most cumulative challenge appearances (didn't do that math)

Wow so the Quest is The only Road Rules Season that Has had all it's cast members appear on a challenge. I thought it would be more.

[QUOTE=Debut Album;441431]Wow so the Quest is The only Road Rules Season that Has had all it's cast members appear on a challenge.

So there's been a lot of close calls.

[QUOTE=CHIblackhawk;441440]I do remember hearing in one of these threads that Raquel from Campus Crawl was gonna be on Gauntlet 2 but backed out for a wedding.[/QUOTE] Yep! Jon and Shayne both wanted to do Challenges too, but were never asked.

So there's been a lot of close calls.[/QUOTE] Yep. I think Shayne wanted to do one a while back but BMP Never asked him. And I read somewhere that Patrick was going to be on Battle of the Sexes 2 but he Backed out because he didn't like how he was portrayed on His season. It sucks though because he was one of the castmembers from that season I was looking forward to seeing. And as people on here probably know already Raquel was asked for The Gauntlet 2 but backed out because it conflicted with a Friends wedding. She would've been nice to see.

[QUOTE=Youssarian;441441]Yep! Jon and Shayne both wanted to do Challenges too, but were never asked.[/QUOTE] I think Patrick was close to doing BOTSexes 2 also but decided he didn't like his edit so was like "nah..." I think Patrick would have been awesome on the challenges. It sucks we never got to see him compete after his season.

I honestly thought that he was going to be the challenge ***** of that season but it turned out to be Derrick haha.

edit: thought this was generic thread....

I can't edit my original post, but I also realized that 5/8 have appeared from Brooklyn, not 4/8.

Landon has never been on a challenge with Johnny Bananas. I've been thinking about that today and I've wondered how many other contestants are like that? (With at least 4 challenges under their belt and timeline overlap)

[QUOTE=SkylarGuy23;442392]Landon has never been on a challenge with Johnny Bananas. I've been thinking about that today and I've wondered how many other contestants are like that? (With at least 4 challenges under their belt and timeline overlap)[/QUOTE] To be fair, Landon's first two challenges were before Key West appeared on the show. Johnny's only missed 3 since he debuted (Duel II, FM2 & Seasons 2) I think it's safe to say that on Landon was on at least 2 of those and never did another season with Johnny. I can't think of anyone else

[QUOTE=Youssarian;442394]Paula and Veronica have 17 Challenge appearances between them, but have never been on a Challenge together.[/QUOTE] Well, the only chance Paula had of being on a challenge with Veronica was on The Ruins. Also, Darrell and Aneesa have a cumulative 16 challenge appearances and have never done a challenge together. Battle of the Sexes - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Gauntlet - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Inferno - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Battle of the Sexes 2 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Inferno 2 - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Gauntlet 2 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Fresh Meat - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Duel - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Inferno 3 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Duel 2 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes The Ruins - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Fresh Meat 2 - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Rivals - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Battle of the Exes - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Rivals 2 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Free Agents - Darrell no, Aneesa yes

Though not directly related to the Challenges, Real World had an LGBT cast member on the first season and it's now standard to have one represented on nearly every season. However, Road Rules didn't have an LGBT cast member until the [I]tenth[/I] season with Sophia on The Quest.

I'm trying to think which Real World seasons didn't have an LGBT cast member. St. Thomas, Las Vegas 2 (depending on what you think of Dustin), Hollywood, Sydney, Austin, San Diego, Las Vegas, New York (depending on Coral), and that might be it.

I'm genuinely asking because I don't know. I've never seen it and don't know much about the cast tbh. Also, while Stephen is gay, he wasn't out during his Seattle season. So I guess that half counts.

[QUOTE=KIsOpenDoors;442428]I'm trying to think which Real World seasons didn't have an LGBT cast member. St. Thomas, Las Vegas 2 (depending on what you think of Dustin), Hollywood, Sydney, Austin, San Diego, Las Vegas, New York (depending on Coral), and that might be it.[/QUOTE] London, kinda Seattle because Stephen was still in the closet/denial. Hawaii (Ruthie/Justin), Chicago (Aneesa/Chris), Philadelphia (Willie/Karamo), Denver (Davis/Jenn? not sure if she was out on her season or even if she's bi or Rachel was just a fling), DC (Mike/Emily), San Diego 2011 (Frank/Sam), and Ex-Plosion (Arielle/Ashley), Campus Crawl (Shane/Rachel), and X-Treme (Danny/Nick) all had 2 LGBT cast members. More seasons than I thought! Brooklyn had 3 (Katelynn, JD, Sarah - never saw Brooklyn but apparently she mainly dated women beforehand) I'm not sure where Cancun stands... Derek for sure, but is Ayiiia bi? Emilee? They had a fling on their season. Also I didn't count VR because of the confusion between alumni, new Roadies, and pit crew who never made it to the RV.

Ayiiia is a lesbian now. Emilee is straight.

So I was bored and decided to see who has appeared with the most fellow challenges. Full disclosure: I only actually counted the people who had been on the most challenges (CT, Johnny, Paula, Aneesa). Aneesa won with 149 people, then CT had 123, and Johnny and Paula both had around 110 or so. I think Paula edged out Johnny because of all the FM2 people that never went on another challenge. It's possible that someone else has appeared with more people, but I'm too lazy to count heh. But as it stands, it seems Aneesa is the challenger who has appeared with the most people. Which makes sense actually considering how long her stint has spanned (12 years). Plus if you count the people from her season who have not appeared on a challenge, she's been on the shows with 153 people.

[QUOTE=nevidcm;442405] Also, Darrell and Aneesa have a cumulative 16 challenge appearances and have never done a challenge together. Battle of the Sexes - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Gauntlet - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Inferno - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Battle of the Sexes 2 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Inferno 2 - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Gauntlet 2 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Fresh Meat - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Duel - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Inferno 3 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Duel 2 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes The Ruins - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Fresh Meat 2 - Darrell yes, Aneesa no Rivals - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Battle of the Exes - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Rivals 2 - Darrell no, Aneesa yes Free Agents - Darrell no, Aneesa yes[/QUOTE] Now that is something

I checked the last 10 seasons of cast members who made it to final on their first challenge. 15 (Gauntlet 3) Tori 16 (Island) / 17 (Duel2) Brittini 18 (Ruins) Sarah 19 (FM 2) Carley,Laurel,Noor,Pete 20 (Cutthroat) Emily 21 (Rivals) Leroy, Michael 22 (Exes) / 23 (Seasons) Frank,Zach,Ashley,Sam,Devyn 24 (Rivals 2) Jordan,Marlon,Cooke 25 (Free agents)Johnny So basically being a rookie isn't that bad :P
