    Which camper is the strongest in the challenges? I've reviewed all of the challenges, and think I have been able to rank each and every camper based on their ability to win challenges. I'm going to post my information, and I'd like to know what you all think of it.

    First, the grading rubric:

    A - 5 pts. Directly responsible for victory, or something like it.
    B - 4 pts. Helped their team or themself out
    C - 3 pts. Either did nothing of note besides participate, or helped and hurt their team without a clear indicator of which.
    D - 2 pts. Hindered their team or themself
    E - 1 pt. Cost their team or themself the challenge
    N - Unable to judge, usually due to being unable to participate due to involuntary removal from challenge. Removed from calculation.

    Each camper is assigned points based on their performance, then, the average is obtained by dividing by the number of challenges. Any ties are resolved by the camper participating in more challenges getting a higher rank. Enjoy it in my next post.

    I'm going to split these into five-episode intervals. Please wait until the end to comment.

    Episode 1 - Not So Happy Campers

    Beth - D
    Bridgette - B
    Cody - B
    Courtney - D
    Duncan - B
    DJ - D
    Eva - B
    Ezekiel - B
    Geoff - B
    Gwen - B
    Harold - B
    Heather - D
    Izzy - B
    Justin - B
    Katie - B
    Leshawna - B
    Lindsay - B
    Noah - B
    Owen - B
    Sadie - B
    Trent - B
    Tyler - B

    Since all Gophers excelled at building the hot tub, and all Bass did poorly, ranking was based on the cliff jump. Aided the team if jump was performed, hindered if refused. Only outlier was Heather, as she refused to jump and Leshawna threw her, thus, Heather is counted as if she refused.

    Episode 2 - The Big Sleep

    Beth - B
    Bridgette - D
    Cody - C
    Courtney - B
    Duncan - A
    DJ - C
    Eva - B
    Geoff - C
    Gwen - A
    Harold - C
    Heather - B
    Izzy - D
    Justin - N
    Katie - C
    Leshawna - D
    Lindsay - B
    Noah - D
    Owen - E
    Sadie - C
    Trent - B
    Tyler - C

    Based on performance during Awake-a-Thon. Owen did not make it past 12 hours, thus the worst tier. Bridgette, Izzy, Noah, and Leshawna are seen asleep before Chris starts to read fairy tales. Cody, DJ, Geoff, Harold, Katie, Sadie, and Tyler are asleep at next interval, after the fairy tales but before Chris arrives the last morning. Duncan and Gwen last until the end. Justin is not ranked, as, due to his cheat, unable to determine how long he lasted.

    Episode 3 - Dodge Brawl

    Beth - C
    Bridgette - C
    Cody - B
    Courtney - A
    Duncan - A
    DJ - B
    Geoff - B
    Gwen - B
    Harold - A
    Heather - D
    Izzy - C
    Justin - C
    Katie - B
    Leshawna - B
    Lindsay - D
    Noah - E
    Owen - B
    Sadie - D
    Trent - C
    Tyler - D

    Based on performance during dodgeball. Heather, Lindsay and Sadie did not throw out any campers and did not participate in many games, the former two left the ring as well, creating a shortage of players. Tyler threw out only one camper, but poor tactics during second round and leaving the playing field reflect against him. Bridgette participated in one round of the Bass blitz manuever, but was thrown out several times, while DJ and Geoff did two and were thrown out less. Gwen, Leshawna, and Owen all threw out multiple campers. Beth, Justin, Izzy, and Trent did nothing of note. Courtney (coercing Duncan to participate), Duncan (creating the blitz strategy) and Harold (catching the final ball) all become integral, despite Courtney and Harold's mishaps while playing.

    Episode 4 - Not Quite Famous

    Beth - D
    Bridgette - C
    Cody - D
    Courtney - N
    Duncan - D
    DJ - C
    Geoff - B
    Gwen - D
    Harold - A
    Heather - D
    Izzy - C
    Justin - B
    Katie - C
    Leshawna - D
    Lindsay - D
    Owen - C
    Sadie - C
    Trent - A
    Tyler - C

    Performance based on talent show competition. Hindered team if no talent was introduced, exception is Heather, who willingly chose not to perform talent. Mediocre if talent performed, but not selected to participate. Exception to rule is Bridgette, who performed her talent, but clumsy maneuver hurt team. Aided team if talent was used during contest, or selected to be used. Trent and Harold both scored winning scores for their team. Courtney is unable to be judged, as her talent could not be performed through no fault of her own.

    Episode 5 - The Sucky Outdoors

    Beth - C
    Bridgette - B
    Cody - C
    Courtney - B
    Duncan - B
    DJ - B
    Geoff - B
    Gwen - C
    Harold - B
    Heather - C
    Izzy - D
    Katie - E
    Leshawna - C
    Lindsay - C
    Owen - D
    Sadie - E
    Trent - C
    Tyler - B

    Bass team came back before Gopher team with the exception of Katie and Sadie. All Bass team members aided their team, while the Gophers all had a late start and an unusable map due to Izzy and Owen, who are both diminished. Katie and Sadie cost the challenge.

    Based on performance during cooking challenge. All Bass performed adequately, with Geoff giving recipes that all went over well, so he gave team victory. Leshawna and Beth receive 9 points for their dish, so they aided the team. Heather cost team by using a bad recipe for dessert, and assigning it to chefs that didn't know how to flambee. Owen cost team by eating ribs. Trent prepared ribs, but was knocked unconscious by Owen who then ate the ribs, so it is unknown how they tasted before this.

Heather won one and lost one, as Lindsay shouted not to jump before Heather jumped.

    Duncan - B
    Gwen - B
    Heather - C
    Owen - B

    So, now that the scores have been listed, here comes the averages.

    Beth - 28 / 9 = 3.11 = C+
    Bridgette - 49 / 16 = 3.06 = C+
    Cody - 26 / 8 = 3.25 = C+
    Courtney - 36 / 10 = 3.60 = B-
    Duncan - 83 / 22 = 3.77 = B-
    DJ - 51 / 18 = 2.83 = C-
    Eva - 12 / 3 = 4 = B
    Ezekiel - 4 / 1 = 4 = B
    Geoff - 68 / 20 = 3.40 = C+
    Gwen - 90 / 24 = 3.75 = B-
    Harold - 41 / 12 = 3.42 = C+
    Heather - 67 / 23 = 2.91 = C-
    Izzy - 29 / 12 = 2.41 = D+
    Justin - 11 / 3 = 3.67 = B-
    Katie - 15 / 5 = 3 = C
    Leshawna - 63 / 19 = 3.32 = C+
    Lindsay - 48 / 16 = 3 = C
    Noah - 7 / 3 = 2.33 = D+
    Owen - 77 / 24 = 3.21 = C+
    Sadie - 32 / 10 = 3.20 = C+
    Trent - 46 / 14 = 3.29 = C+
    Tyler - 18 / 6 = 3 = C

    Letter ranks are determined by the same values of numbers during challenges, with .5 being the switch between a high ranked lower number and a lower ranked upper nu,ber. Thus, the final ranks go:

    1.) Eva
    2.) Ezekiel
    3.) Duncan
    4.) Gwen
    5.) Justin
    6.) Courtney
    7.) Harold
    8.) Geoff
    9.) Leshawna
    10.) Trent
    11.) Cody
    12.) Owen
    13.) Sadie
    14.) Beth
    15.) Bridgette
    16.) Lindsay
    17.) Tyler
    18.) Katie
    19.) Heather
    20.) DJ
    21.) Izzy
    22.) Noah

    Eva, Ezekiel, and Justin had strong showing despite their short performances, while Noah had a weak one. Duncan, Geoff and Gwen dominated for most of the game, while Courtney, Harold, and Trent did on a smaller scale. DJ, Heather, and Izzy got far despite not doing well in challenges.

    So, let me know what you think, ya'll.

    eh, looks cool. I would have given Noah a D in dodgebrawl, and Lindsay an E. Why, because Lindsay participated, but hurt the team, and she left the area, creating a shortage like you said. Now Noah didn't participate, but that means he didn't either help his team, or hurt his team, he was just there.

    I thought about that, but Lindsay didn't do anything worse then Heather did, serving as little more then a meatshield. By contrast, Noah willingly chose not to participate in all of the games, which shorted them a player anyway.

    ya, I'd give Lindsay low scores for just about every challenge, but that's because I hate her so much, and because she really hurt her team most of the time. I think Noah would have done well in the later challenges that he misses. And I respect smart people more then idiots. but, that's just me.

    I'd give Gwen and Duncan the best scores overall. Because they did great in most challenges. maybe one or two bad ones. (gwen-dodgebrawl, cook off, Duncan-Trust,extreme sports,)

    I'd give Owen and Lindsay the worst scores. Because they only did good in maybe 3 challenges. (Owen-eating, dodgebrawl, dareing, Lindsay-eating (tricked her), extreme sports, bike race)

    These are for the campers that made it past the half way mark.

    That's my opinion.
