The Challenge: Unofficial Stats For The New Season

My life does not revolve around The Challenge.

Since I last posted on my blog, I got a job. No kidding . . . got a call from the temp agency, went into the city, and wound up working a gig in Brooklyn doing clerical work. It can get monotonous, but I like the people surrounding me, and I'm making money. During that time, I kept meaning to write here. Stuff kept coming up, like Johan Santana's no-hitter (the first in Mets history) and how I was asleep at that time, the painful ending of The Amazing Race and the success of country boys Bopper &; Mark into making it watchable, the horror that was Colton Cumbie during Survivor: One World and how I was convinced that Dan Savage and Rick Santorum would write a joint statement condemning him, and so on and so on, yadda yadda yadda. Actually, I'm going to go to Baltimore this weekend for their comic book convention, and I aim to post about that . . . but other than that, I never get around to writing stuff out.

What I can do, apparently, is compile statistics for the latest season of The Challenge. This time, it's Battle of the Seasons. If you go to MTV.com, you'll see that it's a departure from the original BOTS way back in 2002 (Coral & Mike's first appearance! Slappy Stephen! The feud between married couple Chadwick & Holly vs. psycho single mom Belou!), and it holds a tiny bit of promise. No appearance of the Axis of Ass, aka Evan, Johnny and Kenny. No "Paula Walnuts." No rank stench of "Fresh Meat." No Mark Long and his turning reality tricks at a relatively advanced age. No butterface Rachel. In fact, out of the 32 players involved, almost half -- 15 -- are in their first Challenge. Sure, there are assholes aplenty (Wes, Danny, Dummy Bear, friggin' Trishelle etc.), but then there are the more bearable kids like Isaac, Chet and Lacey. Speaking of Lacey, who was the undisputed least awful thing in The Real World: Austin, I estimate it took five hours worth of surgery to remove the phone from her hand.

Anyway, you can check out the statistics of the seventeen veterans below. As always, I have no life . . . but at least I'm trying these days. Information  comes from Wikipedia, because I can no longer remember every moment from even season. Completed seasons are in italics, victorious seasons are in boldface. Also, I added links in Alton and Trishelle's stats from the seasons and episodes I recapped.

Update: Way The Hell Past My Bedtime, September 20

First of all, don't ask me what happened to the Sydney kids. I think Isaac's people came to Earth on their mothership and whisked them all away. Between that and a gaggle of Fresh Meat kids, I had to make adjustments. I had to do it anyway, since some sort of stillborn media player has been popping up in my entries when I'm using Explorer, and it's pissing me the hell off. On the bright side, the 17/15 veterans/rookies split is still in effect. Once again, here are the stats going into tonight's episode . . . and thank you, Wes, for dragging the one redeemable cast member from your original season (Lacey) with you to Loserville. Jackass.
