This starts tonight, in case you didn't hear about it. A little different this time. Apparently from what I can gather, one guy and one girl get voted off after each mission. But the twist is, before every mission, each team appoints 3 "leaders". The leaders set the gameplan for the mission ahead. If their team wins, the leaders are safe, and they are the only ones who get to decide who gets voted off. But if they lose, EVERYONE ELSE is safe, and they get to vote one of the leaders off (the leaders can't vote)! Once they get down to the final 4, it then beomes 2 leaders, and the final 3 guys play off against the final 3 girls for $180,000. The strategy is real interesting here, as by being a leader you either put yourself in the ultimate power position if you win, or at the mercy of the others if you lose. Who you end up leading with is crucial, because a loss means the odds are 1 in 3 you will be eliminated, but you also want to pick a person who will agree with you in who to vote off if you win.

Thanks for the info! I didn't hear about this yet. (Guess I haven't watched MTV in awhile.) Missed it tonight. Guess I'll have to try to catch a repeat - one the 2,000 times it will air In reading the description, it sounds like they took some direction from The Apprentice. Maybe when I watch it, it won't seem even vaguely similar.

I told myself I wasn't going to watch this and I did! It's just going to be the same fighting from the same people. Of course, they've thrown a few newbies into the mix so the "older" stars can whine about them and they can whine about the "older" stars.

I am sucked in again! Question...why does Eric (NY1) have that stupid jump rope around his neck in every scene? From what I heard the most of the "older" stars don't make it to the end, so it looks like Coral may lose again. Has she won any challenges beside the first one where her and Mike were partners?

Of course I'm sucked in again too. It looks like it's a lot more of the Battle of the Newbies vs Old Timers. I know that [newbies vs. old timers] has always changed the dynamics a bit at the beginning, but I don't remember hearing so much about it from the cast. Maybe I've just forgotten. When did Tonya become so... um.... well, let's just say "promiscuous"? And I wonder what's up with Arissa? I wonder why Alton didn't go as well?

Is Irulan there? I didn't even notice. Alton is still with Irulan, right?

The girls voted off Genesis and the guys voted off Jaquese(spelling?). You'll have to watch it when MTV shows it 50 times this weekend to see how it unfolds.

Genesis and Jacquese were voted off, Abby. I liked the episode somewhat. Was susprised to see Coral and Tina do well in the challenge! I still can't stand that Rachel girl. I am happy to see Ruthie, Sophia, Cynthia, Arissa and Ayanna again. I always liked them. I am NOT happy to see Veronica, Mike and Coral again. Seriously, get jobs. Not too impressed with the Cameron. Her voice is annoying. I hope Angela becomes the new Sarah/Katie and kicks butt when she has to just to spite the oldies AKA people with no lives. The boys are boring to me and I won't be surprised if there are no major story lines involving them.

Monkeyboy ~ Good rundown on the people! I saw a new preview for next week and it looks like Coral and Abe hook up. Ayeee ~ wonder if there will be fists involved as foreplay?

I believe Arissa is divorced now. She married a body guard or a bouncer from The Palms Hotel in Las Vegas. From the little bit I've seen of her, she looks healthier that she did during her season.

Ok, so I think this is season is totally going to rock, I absolutly love Mike, Coral, Abe, Theo, Ruthie, Cameron, Brad, Randy, Robin, and Ace. I don't really like rachel or Tina. I think its going to be interesting to see how everything unfolds. Here's to a great season!

I think Cameron will get the boot rather quickly. She pretty much said she's only there to meet new people and party. She's not much into the competing. Has she ever watched the Battles before? Doesn't she know how seriously competitive most of these people are? I was sad to see Ja get sent home. I loved him during the Real World season and was happy that we would get to see more of him. Oh well. I think Randy will do well. He seems pretty competitive and looks to be in pretty good shape. Glad to see Ruthie back. She rocks! The upcoming competition with the ice looks "interesting". I wonder what that will be all about.

Hi, I'm new to the boards. Is anyone else playing the MTV Fantasy Game? It is the one where you choose a team of your own? I think the way they give out points is hysterical. The more bizarre your team members are, the higher you score. I'm having trouble deciding on just six people out of all of the craziness we've seen in the previews. It is good to see Ruthie still looking healthy. She's come a long way from her days in Hawaii.}
