As we all know by now, David beats Dan in Pit Battle #12.
As for Episode #13, it begins in the RV. Susie says she is worried that David is going to start throwing missions because he keeps getting sent to the Pit. She tries to reassure David that, from now on, it is all based on performance. What bullshit. Upon hearing this, Derek decides to grow some balls and tell them that their voting system is bullshit, before slamming the door and leaving the RV in a rage.
As for the mission, in spite of being attacked by dogs, dealing with scorpians and eating maggots, in which Kina has an anxiety attack and Adam is a bore, as usual, Susiefucks up on the last part of the mission and the RVers lose! Susiesucks! Tori is annoying, too, & Dan had some subtle backlashes for her in his blog this week. I think Dan's had a lot of built-up anger @ Tori for a while, now. The only people he is nice about in his blog are Kina and Adam.
David is (shocker shocker!!!!) voted into The Pit again. No shit! Really guys, this is getting b.o.r.i.n.g!
Even after an emotional breakdown, in which he declares that the RVers are the "best people" he has ever known in his life! Why, I don't know!!!! I was honestly embarassed FOR him, by that point. UGH. Susie ignores her guilt and says she is still voting for him, Derek implies that he thinks David's little crying performance was an act to gain sympathy (I actually agree with Veronica's theory that he was drunk).
So vote for who you want David to face in the Pit! Oh, & FYI, there is yet another addition to the Pit Crew! Mike*(click learn all about him)

Highlight to read.Dan is voted into Pit Battle #11 to go up against David. David wins and goes back on the RV. The RVers lose the mission and David is sent back into the Pit AGAIN.
Pit Battle #11: It's Susie & Derek vs. Dan &Veronica and Susie & Derek win, duh! They were obviously the physcially stronger of the 2 teams. I would have loved to have Dan and Veronica win, though! Ahhhhh there would be SO MUCH DRAMA. I'm getting rather bored of Susie (she bugs me) and Tori and Kina and all them ganging up on poor David. In fact, in this Episode #12, even Derek turns on the helpless David when he votes him into yet another Pit. Derek defends his decision to the camera, saying he is in it for the money and he's gotta do what he's gotta do. Understandable, but still...I feel sorry for David. So, ONCE AGAIN, David will be competing in the Pit...stay tuned.
Oh--& Veronica has some very interesting, provacative shit to say about Tori in her blog. She attacks Tori hard--calling her fake and what not--not that Tori doesn't deserve it, in my opinion. I'm not a big fan of Tori--she sucks. Tori also wrote a fake-ass blog, saying nice things about a lot of castmembers. It's obvious she is desperate for the Pit Crew to have her back and that all this drama with Ivory*, Veronica and the rest of the Pit Crew is really breaking her down. I say keep @ it, Pit Crew girls!

On April 5, Lauren Conrad received a shocking phone call.
A friend called to tell her about a report on Perez Hilton dot com claiming Jason Wahler was peddling a tape of them having sex.
“My friend started reading the item to me, and I literally could not breathe,” Conrad tells Us Weekly. “I thought she was joking when she started telling me.”
Though Perez Hilton says he confirmed the tape’s existence with “multiple sources close to Lauren Conrad and Jason Wahler,” the star of MTV’s The Hills denies it.
“Honestly, they videotape my life five days out of the week,” said Conrad, who’s still in disbelief over the rumor. “I don’t need additional footage, you know?”
We know.
One thing’s for sure. Whomever leaked the information doesn’t like The Hills.
Either that, or they have a vendetta against Conrad.
Sources close to LC are pointing fingers at her former BFF and roommate, Heidi Montag, and her boyfriend, Spencer Pratt, who was Conrad’s nemesis throughout the second season of The Hills.
The Laguna Beach native notes that Montag, despite their long history, was the one “friend” who didn’t reach out to her after news of the alleged sex tape broke.
“This has literally been, like, the worst week ever,” she said. “And someone who’s supposedly my friend didn’t even call or text me.”
Nevertheless, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, who moved in together on the season 2 finale, were interviewed by Us Weekly and denied any wrongdoing.
“It’s sad someone would make up something like that, and even sadder people think we had anything to do with it,” said the slimy, sucky Spencer Pratt.
“I feel horrible for Lauren, but I had nothing to do with spreading that false, disgusting rumor,” Heidi said, seconding her lame boyfriend’s statement.
So things are getting more and more tense and on edge, as the RVers have just been informed that their show has only a few more weeks to go. Everyone is nervous, everyone wants that money! I can't blame em.
In Episode #11, long story short, the team loses the mission, so now the RVers have to vote in not 1, but 2 people into the Pit. David injures his balls. Badly. Since Susie fucked up on the mission, she volunteers herself. They wanna vote in David for the guys, but he is injured. So Susie votes for Derek, who is not happy. Her reasoning actually makes sense--she feels most comfortable with David, since they will be battling it out, together, as a team versus 1 male and 1 female Pit Crew member. Susie wants the strongest guy with her, in order to ensure that she stays on the RV. Derek feels powerless. The RVers are kind of mean to David.
Anyway, no links are posted up for either the Pit Battle or this past Episode, so I'll keep checking and add them in later. So, the basic stats are:
RV:Kina, Tori, Susie, Adam, Abe, David & Derek Pit Crew:Veronica, Shane, Dan, Jerry*, Angel, Kristin*, Ivory* Vote for who you want them to go up against in next week's Pit!

Before I go over the events, let me start this post off by saying noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo I can NOT believe CT got thrown off!!!! I am so disappointed--he was 90% of the reason I was so excited to watch the show. Ok, when i look at what I just wrote, hahaha, I sound like an obsessive stalker fan. But he's right up there with Rachel and Veronica when it comes to entertaining to watch, if not more so! Unfortunately, it appears he is no longer there to entertain me (& a million other fans said the same thing). ANWAY, here is how it all went down on this week.
The whole cast arrives in South Africa. They are split up into Good Guys vs. Bad Asses. Of course, CT gets chosen for the badass team. He is joined by several others including Danny and his former partner-nemesis-turned-friend, Evelyn (his former partner on Fresh Meat).* Another irony, that I did not realize until now, is that Susie and Abe are both this Challenge.**
Anyway, in the confessional, CT states that since Diem is not here, he is going to be a lot more focused in this Challenge and promises to get dirty. Indeed, he does--as everyone gets drunk in celebration of their first night on the Inferno 3, CT and Kenny start wrestling, which is playful (exclusive clip) @ 1st. CT, being the competetive male that he is, almost chokes Kenny when they are wrestling. Abe and a couple others pull him off and Kenny is a good sport about it. They go outside and begin wresting again, Kenny, still playful and CT getting serious, making an effort to pin down Kenny and ends up getting a bloody nose when Kenny wrestles him off. CT is furious and threatens Kenny and gets all up in his face.
You can tell Kenny thinks this whole thing is ridiculous. So do the rest of the people, all putting in their various comments.
The next scene is Johnny in the bathroom with a newbie, Davis, who is bawling his eyes out. Johnny is checking on him when Ty (another newbie from RW Denver) comes in and asks if Davis is ok. "No, he's not ok," Johnny replies. "CT just punched him for no reason." According to Davis, he was walking down the hall when CT stopped him and asked him if he could take a punch. Davis admits he said yeah (what the fuck?????) and CT socked him in the eye. A little strange, but whatever.
So Ty goes into CT's room, who is sleeping, by this point. Ty wakes him up and says nervously, "I don't know if you were drunk, or what...but...you need to control your temper."
"Control his temper?" Alton (who is also in the room) interjects, "He's gotta go home!" CT turns to look at him, and Alton continues, "CT, you make a toast saying how you are happy to be here with all good friends and then a minute later you punch someone?"
CT seems confused throughout the ordeal and kind of avoids the question, asking what any of this has to do with him. "I'm not accusing you," Ty laments, "I'm asking. Did you clock him?"
"Why would I punch a gay kid who isolates himself from everybody?" CT asks.
My take on it? CT didn't realize his own strength. He was drunk, got impulsive, didn't mean to hurt Davis so much as he wasn't thinking about what he was doing, and was genuinely surprised when Davis was hurt. Soon after, production comes and tells him he needs to get up, now, and get on a plane back to the US (this Challenge takes place in South Africa).
In the confessional, CT complains that production is blowing this waaaay out of proportion and stresses that he wasn't picking on him because he was gay. "It wasn't malicious, it wasn't evil, it wasn't meant to be anything like that," he says in such a way that one would either deem sincere or simply tired of the drama. CT is a charmer...I don't quite know what it is. You can tell he's smart though. It almost seems like he has 2 sides to him: the drunk/competetive CT with a mean, arrogant steak and then the understanding, sweet side we sometimes see when he's with Diem or on the Inferno 2 reuinion, when he comments that Tonya tried her hardest and he can't really get mad at someone for losing when they try their best. So that's that...CT is gone from the Inferno 3. It's sad, but Derrick comes to replace him, who is also fun and dramatic.
The rules of this game are a little different from that of the Inferno 2. This time, there is an Inferno battle every other mission. There are 2 types of missions each time. The 1st is the Team mission, where they work together as a team and whoever wins gets $10 grand in their team bank, and the people remaining at the end of the Challenge get to split the total team money evenly. The Bad Asses win the 1st mission. Regardless of who wins, though, each team has to chose 1 player from the opposing team to go into the Inferno. This week is the Guys Inferno, the Girls Inferno will be next week. The Bad Asses choose Davis and the Good Guys choose Abe. Davis looks terrifed. The 2nd Self-Test mission, where each individual gets a chance to prove themselves by doing well in these individual tasks. Those who are voted into the Inferno get a chance to save themselves with the Lifesheild, which is given to 1 guy and 1 girl from each team, which makes them exempt from the Inferno. In this Self-Test, Abe gets the Lifesheild for the Bad Asses, making him exempt from the Inferno. He chooses Ty to take his place. Evelyn gets the Lifeshield for the Bad Ass girls. For the Good Guys, Alton gets the Lifesheild and, to everyone's amazement, steps in for Davis to battle it out with Ty. That was nice of him! Davis is eternally grateful. The episode ends with Ty and Alton ready to battle it out in the Inferno...tune in next week to see who wins!
*I actually have a lot of unanswered questions about Danny with regards to relationship dynamics with Melinda (Real World: Austin) and Rachel, 2 of his 6 original castmates from Real World: Austin. Last I heard, Melinda and him were engaged (Fresh Meat). Are they still together? These challenges usually ask about stuff like that, but for the time being the only thing we have established is that he and Evelyn have patched things up. As for Danny and Rachel, I would really like to know what's up with them because, although they were good friends in Austin, Rachel called him out, along with Niemiah (RW: Austin) during the Real World: Austin Reuinion, saying, "Either he was fake on the show or he changed afterwords." This was in response to a question someone from the audience asked about the rumor that Danny thinks he's the new Ben Affleck. Needless to say, when Rachel confirmed it, Danny wasn't too happy, which I understand, because he stuck up for her the whole time during their Austin season, when Neimiah and Wes would give her constant shit to see her reaction. Anyway, when Fresh Meat first started taping, Danny had just gone to the Reunion a couple days before. Danny and Evelyn were eliminated during the 1st round. Evelyn, who is a strong-ass player, was pissed off and according to her blog, found Danny very arrogant and wrote about how, on their way home, Danny talked constant shit about Niemiah and Rachel, saying he hated them both and that they were jealous of him. So, I'm wondering how they are getting along now. It must be rather awkward with both of them being there, although they are on different teams, anyway. ** Abe and Susie--when Viewers Revenge was filmed, I guess they had just finished filming the Inferno 3 together. During the Inferno 3 Trailer, it looks like they get in a fight. It shows Susie crying and Abe yelling @ her. Dunno though, we'll have to see.
Sorry for the slow update this week--my internet has been down since Tuesday and this is the 1st time I've gotten it to work. Hopefully there won't be any more problems! Anywayyyy.... Episode #10 immidiately opened with big-time DRAMA when David beat Shane in Pit Battle #9, which, as most of you know by now, means David is coming back to the RV! With the excepttion of Derek, this does NOT thrill the rest of the RVers because, by now, they have watched last week's episode and saw how much shit David talked about all of them, especially Tori. The minute they pick him up and he gets on, they go @ it and it gets ugly. David calls Tori a cockteasing bitch, and Tori tells him no one wants to vote for him, Susie jumps in the conversation (uninvited...I've decided I don't like her) and informs him that he is "done," because, apparently, "nobody messes with Tori!" (ShutupSusie). I'm not a big fan of Tori, either, she's too emotional and kind of a bitch who tries to act like she's nice, so, in a sense, David was right to call her fake. Even Dan took David's side after watching this episode, also noting that Tori's pathetic attempt to bitch him out was kind of ridiculous in the end, because she ended up crying all over herself, as always. Regardless, the RVers put their differences aside when it comes to their mission, which, unfortunately they fail, but only need to vote 1 person in this week because they have to lose twice in a row in order to have 2 people go in for Battle. Derek decides to be the team diplomat and step up and volunteer himself to go to the Pit. He also explains himself to the Viewers @ the end, however, that he is not a pushover, but that he and David had made a pact that they would both volunteer themselves once and only once. He also warns that he trusts that the RVers will NOT send him into the Pit again. We'll see. I like Derek, so I hope he comes back. Then again, I'm also hopin Dan comes back, although if they battled, I think it's pretty clear who would win.

That's right! In celebration of it's comeback this year (premiering for the 1st time since 2004) Road Rules: Viewers Revenge is now being featured on Inside Pulse, where you can read interviews with fellow cast members (both RV and Pit Crew) including the notorious Veronica Portillo, Adam Larson and many more. Click here to read the full list of cast members interviewed from Viewers Revenge. Or, if you're as obsessed as I am, go to Sirlinkslot, which provides a complete list of random information and features on the cast members.
So this was a dramatic week. First, Dan lost to Derek in Pit Battle #8. So Dan is now in the Pit Crew & Derek has moved up to the RV. You can watch it below:
As for Episode #9, things also get interesting. If you recall from last week (Episode #8, Pit Battle #7) David and Susie beat out Shane and Angel during Pit Battle #7, so the current RV now consists of Kina, Susie, Tori, David, Derek & Adam (why do i always forget about him???? possibly because he's gotten about 5 minutes of total airtime in all 9 episodes combined!) Anyway, because it is Derek's 1st week on the RV, he has immunity from the Pit Crew for 1 week. Since RVers win the mission (which was incredibly disgusting, btw, it was on a farm--it involved tractors and shoveling and ugh...not my thing) they only have to vote 1 person into the Pit Crew, as opposed to 2 people when they lose a mission. So of course David, being the new guy, is voted in to battle it out with another male Pit Crewer for a spot on the RV. David is not too happy about this and, even before the mission, he knows he will be voted in regardless of his performance during the mission. When sitting @ a diner for lunch, he fires @ the 4 members (Kina, Susie, Tori and Adam) that if he is going to be voted in no matter what, he will not help them earn another dime. He does end up performing well in the mission though, but he is voted in anyway because of the alliance. He and Derek know they are on the chopping block and both are not too happy. The links to watch the episode are not currently working, for some reason, so I'll add it in later when it is.
I have to say, I agree with Veronica's advice to the new guys when she says (in her latest blog entry) THROW MISSIONS.
