alargebucket 1589 Posted January 7, 2015 Guys, I have never seen this show and have never watched more than two consecutive episodes of a reality series before, but I want you all to like me and so please I need help and education and someone to draft for me and thank you. 2 Share this post Link to post
Asteck 1250 Posted January 7, 2015 I was just planning on copying the rules from the league that I linked to in the other thread which are below, I'll add this to the first post. I'm down to adjust them too! Like if anybody makes a reference to Wes' companies, there could be points. A voluntary elimination should definitely be included. Sorry if you didn't see these when you made your teams. Feel free to switch them up if don't think they're ideal now that you know the rules!    Point System  Points work as follows – They are subject to change based on twists and the host’s discretion.  Category: Emotional/Verbal/Violence  Crying: 5 points  Verbal Fighting: 5 points  Verbal Fighting with ex: 10 points  Being restrained or lectured by security, contestant, production: 10 points  Physical Fighting: 25 points added  Physical Fighting resulting in exit of the game: -25 points    Category: Romantic/Sexual  Hook-Up: 5 points  Sex or Coitus: 10 points  Nudity: 10 points  Hook-Up or sex with ex: 25 points    Category: Challenge Related  Power Couple: 20 points  "You Killed it" by TJ: 5 points  Last Place in daily challenge: -5 points  Quits in daily challenge: -10 points [includes TJ expressing verbal disappointment]  Blindside/Backstab a contestant: 10 points  Nominated: 10 points  Winning a dome: 15 points  Winning an exile: 5 points  Exile returnees: 10 points  Eliminated: -30 points [after officially losing an ex-hile]    Bonus:    Rare doings  Usage of popular challenge lingo or phrase: 2 points for every saying from person who said it as well as the person it was directed to[i.e. "Earn your stripes", "Rookie Mistake", "Trim the fat", etc.]  Camila Rule: 30 points [i.e. Camila-esque meltdown over ex Johnny]  Jasmine Rule: 30 points [i.e. outlash on partner Tyrie] added   Vomiting: -3 points Being kicked out of bar or club: -10 points    Social Media  Responsible for a Hashtag or Trend: 5 points  Twitter beef: 3 points 3 Share this post Link to post

Joe McGurl 8358 Posted January 7, 2015 I changed my team around a bit. I'm satisfied with it now. Share this post Link to post
Asteck 1250 Posted January 7, 2015 I added some more challenge related points to the first post. I'll wait for Freja and (maybe) brgho to choose teams and if anybody wants to switch up their line up before I score the first episode. I haven't watched it yet and will just assume that nobody's cheating. Because why would you??? We're playing for nothing! (except to not make friends) Â Â Guys, I have never seen this show and have never watched more than two consecutive episodes of a reality series before, but I want you all to like me and so please I need help and education and someone to draft for me and thank you. Â You could probably choose randomly and do fine, since the points reward behavior as much as skill, but I think having any guy (or an ex of that guy) whose name starts with a J on your team will help. Just go with your gut! 2 Share this post Link to post

Â A team like CT, Jordan, Bananas/Theresa, Averey, Jonna would probably be strong. Â Also, start watching. You'll thank me later.

Freja 1290 Posted January 8, 2015 MY TEAM: Â JORDAN WES ZACH Â NANY AVEREY JENNA Â I hope to watch the first ep some time tomorrow! Got sidetracked by the Bachelor premiere. I had time to watch half of the first ep of the Bachelor today WTF I watched for 2 hrs and they weren't even close to getting to the rose ceremony! Maybe I'd be caught up if the first hr wasn't just a live stream of all the washed up old castmembers standing on a small red carpet with a handful of randos from the Midwest trying to take selfies with them! No one cares but still... FRIG 2 Share this post Link to post
Asteck 1250 Posted January 8, 2015 Sweet! I'm gonna assume Brgrho is out and score the episode. I made spreadsheet to keep track of all of this and I swear I'm going to have so much Challenge data by the end of this that I'll be able to write a freakonomics article on it. 1 Share this post Link to post
Asteck 1250 Posted January 8, 2015 I updated the first post with the Leaderboard. I really regret picking Brittany now. I also felt genuinely bad for Dustin who literally says "Making friends is my mission" at the beginning of the episode  I can probably make a link to how I got to those scores for everybody if you're interested. Aside from the mention of a twitter beef between Dustin and Jessica at the beginning it was all just verbal fights with Exes and Challenge win/lose points. 2 Share this post Link to post

Freja 1290 Posted January 8, 2015 Tied for 1st!! My strategy was picking the whiniest, most immature women with father issues in the house to really amp up the crying/hooking up/fighting portion of the points scale. Hoping my male picks will carry me in the actual challenge comps portion of the points system. I find it kinda weird that rookies always suck on these shows-- I figure that if most of them have a baseline level of fitness why the frig do they almost never win any of the comps? 2 Share this post Link to post
