[QUOTE=cystic;454694]The purpose is lost and nonexistent when people expect a place to talk about "spoilers" but instead choose to talk about irrelevant nonsense that couldn't have less to do with the upcoming challenge. In all honesty that speculation/"spoiler" thread should've been closed a LOT earlier than it did but we didn't want there to be a lot of backlash (which ended up happening anyway). I can tell you right now that if we were to have a dedicated spoiler thread that required mod approval of all incoming posts, it'd look like a PinkRose monologue.[/QUOTE] Can there be a thread for mod approved spoilers and then a separate thread for discussing said spoilers?

The how tall is so and so went on for days. Thank you, though, for reopening it. Hope we have some good conversation in there directed towards speculations w/legitimate merit.[/COLOR]
[QUOTE=MTV Junky;454699]Can there be a thread for mod approved spoilers and then a separate thread for discussing said spoilers?[/QUOTE] The line of posts waiting for approval would be so congested, it wouldn't even be funny. And most of them wouldn't even be worth reading. For a while, molds would let people contribute by having them PM her screenshots (actual evidence) and she'd post them in a locked thread and credit them which is just a lot more efficient IMO.
I love JEK despise knowing that they are "Hell" to other cast members whenever they are on a challenge I also think they saved the Challenge but at the same time they infected the challenge
I just want Svetlana back. I want them to guarantee her a win so she will come back... I miss her.
[QUOTE=GraffitiSoul;454434]...before Emily started deadlifting & flipping tires as her main hustle. I don't think Laurel really wants to see her now.[/QUOTE] You must have not seen when Laurel retweeted Emily's tweet about a 1v1 matchup between the two.
[QUOTE=JayTee;454786]You must have not seen when Laurel retweeted Emily's tweet about a 1v1 matchup between the two.[/QUOTE] -_______- whatever was said i'm sure Emily was just trying to be "humble". Most would agree that Laurel wants no parts of Emily, including TJ (who said it without saying it): TJ Lavin ‏@tjlavin Jul 22 @EmFitMTV is gnarly! RT @MTVChallengeLuv: @tjlavin Who u got in a physical elimination @EmFitMTV or @laurelstucky gun to ur head ?
[QUOTE=yeezystan;454611]it's a blessing in disguise! watch how good this season will be because you won't know what happens.[/QUOTE] We all know what's going to the happen. Johnny Backpack is going to make it all the way to the end untouched or slightly "challenged" and then he's going to win it all for the umptenth time. Noobody thinks for themselves or make moves that benefit them. And The Ex-plosion kids go first probably. There you go. Entire season spoiled right there.

Entire season spoiled right there.[/QUOTE] I've always wondered why people don't try and get rid of him earlier... The only game he has is his "friends" which I don't understand why he has so many. He can only take a few to the final, and yet he has pretty much everyone backing him. No one is smart in this game, they are all just hopeful.
He barely has any of his friends in the challenges anymore. Only person you could count is Leroy. His fans (aka Jay) will probably side with him, but that won't last long.
[QUOTE=nmanderson;454610][COLOR="#0000CD"]Sort of defeats the purposed of having a site like this. And now there's censorship of comments for merely asking a reasonable question like "why isn't there a thread to post spoilers/speculation." I am dumbfounded that the Moderator is deleting people's postings for that comment. [/COLOR][/QUOTE] Agreed!
I don't get why CT has so many fans considering he's been an ******* for most of his time on the challenges.
[QUOTE=Debut Album;454940]I don't get why CT has so many fans considering he's been an ******* for most of his time on the challenges.[/QUOTE] He's entertaining, plus the Diem saga. He hasn't been so nasty since he came back on Rivals.
[QUOTE=Johnny Utah;454943]He's entertaining, plus the Diem saga. [B]He hasn't been so nasty since he came back on Rivals.[/B][/QUOTE] Yeah that's why I said MOST of his time on the challenges. And speaking of Diem here's another one: I've never liked nor cared about the whole CT/Diem Thing and I wish BMP would stop subjecting the audience to it.
[QUOTE=Debut Album;454940]I don't get why CT has so many fans considering he's been an ******* for most of his time on the challenges.[/QUOTE] He appeals to women because of his bad boy charm and good looks. [SPOILER]He appeals to men because of his bad boy charm and good looks.[/SPOILER] He appeals to men because he's the alpha male.
Well Johnny happens to be funny, and is a likable guy. Truth is a lot of the people liked him out of the JEK the most. In the house of crazies you need someone who is pretty level headed. I mean if you noticed last season in the beginning Johnny R. and Zach etc... Didn't like him, mainly do to Jordan! He does annoy people, but if you really look back and see, most people don't have such a problem with him, except that he did so many.
I know Devyn Simone said she is closest to Bananas outside of the show.

I don't think Devyn has recovered from the altitude yet. She must have invested in a Bobblehead of her own.[/COLOR]
My unpopular opinion for the day: I think Devyn Simone is a chucklehead. Is anything about that woman real? Even her name sounds contrived.

RR Viewers' Revenge would've been good if they had kept the rules from the first week & stopped changing them around. There would've been more Pit Crew people on the RV as well I believe.
Viewers Revenge had nothing to do with Road Rules. Road Rules was about 5, then 6, unknown people riding around a Winnebago traveling the country, doing cool missions, not trying to beat eachother to get back in the RV. VR was a disaster of biblical proportions.

I think there was a lot of rigging and/or producer influence because it is still a crime to this day that Ivory never got on that RV, especially after her cutting down Susie/Tori. Kristen at least got to see a Pit, Ivory must've pissed the producers off somehow.
Another one: I really don't like Brad at all, even before Cutthroat. He has ruined so much on this show, rather mistaken or intentional. He also tries to play a role like he's such a "good guy", but was always getting caught up in something yet always made it seem like he had no dirt on his hands (Gauntlet 2 w/ the Susie & Cara alliance).
Real World Austin is one of the worst seasons of The Real World ever.
I have one about Brad as well. I don't know exactly how everyone else here feels about this but I have absolutely no sympathy for Brad regarding the beating he received from Darrell on The Ruins. I don't encourage violence or see it as a good way to solve problems, but Brad was really asking for it there. He went and picked a needless fight with Darrell and just continued to instigate it and make things worse. Darrell slowly started to lose it and continually warned Brad to back off or else but he didn't listen and just continued on. They say you get burned if you play with fire, and that is certainly what happened here. He really had that one coming IMO with the way he went about that whole thing.

Speaking of Brad. I like him but I'd rather he not come back. He did what he set out to do on these shows and now there's no reason for him to be back.

That was his 7th challenge at that point yet you [I]still[/I] haven't learned to control your liquor? Darrell was set to walk away with more money than anybody else on that show, while Brad was frustrated that he was the veteran on a misfit team while all his friends were on the Champions & didn't have much of anything he would've walked away with. Plus his home life with Tori & how they were trying to get a lot of things started....wouldn't be shocked if there was a bit of jealousy there.
IDK... Brad has this weird cocky attitude ... like he should be able to get away with anything and everything without consequences... He's always kind of had this with me. He's kind of like what Jordan Wisely could be like if Jordan tried to hide his "godly" attitude. (which is probably why I don't like Brad, just screams fake.)
