    I'd have to go with Lindsay, only time she succeeded was at the waterskiing. Other then that, she was usually causing problems or doing nothing.

    Worse: Justin, Geoff, Sadie and Tyler. Maybe DJ (In this season).

    Like Courtney in first season she helped a lot in some challenges so I wont say her. Lindsay too, in first season she may have caused some problems but she helped a lot in others. She may have been bossy in some in this season, but she helped too. I wont say Ezekiel or Noah, because they didnt have much time in the game, but either I think they wouldnt have helped a lot. Katie..well she helped in the dodgeball game, more than Sadie, but she was eliminated very soon. Beth helped in some challenges. Owen well I think depending in which challenge he helped. Izzy didnt helped a lot, but she helped so I wont say she was nothing for her team. Heather she did a lot, the same goes to Trent, Gwen, Leshawna and Gwen. Bridgette.. she and Harold helped a little. Duncan was very good for his team..and I dont remember nothing to say now..but it depends a lot in which challenge they are going through.

    Justin, he's useless, he refuses to do anything, and his so called talent? Awful...

    LeShawna, she's useless too, she shouldn't have "won" any of those challenges, but she'd have been kicked out by Heather and her alliance...

    No ..Leshawna.?

    Wow..she was verryyy useful for her team. Besides if it wasnt her she wouldnt have made Heather jump from the cliff. And she was strong and helped a lot.

    She made some mistakes in this season but in the other one she was very useful. And in this one she helped in some,like in the episode when Izzy was eliminated..ops Explosivo.

    LeShawna didn't do anything except throw Heather off of the cliff. Otherwise she was in the back while remaining extremely loud...she shouldn't have won any of those immunities, but I guess the staff wanted to ensure that she would be "safe" from Heather...

    No... she helped a lot in episode 1, 3, 11 and 13 when still there were the teams. After tthis she was very good during the challenges of the episodes 15, 17 and 21.

    She was "good" in them because the writers wanted her to win immunity. Why did only 3 people win immunity? Gwen and LeShawna won immunity or rewards to ensure Heather didn't kick them off, and Heather won to ensure she wasn't kicked off.

    From the way the challenges were, Duncan, Owen, Bridgette, etc. easily should have won them, but the writers wanted to make sure that the three would be safe.

    She's only in TDA right now (for now) because she was on the Gaffers who rarely lost because of Duncan and Harold.

    I hate to admit it, but it is Courtney who is bad in challenges. I mean I never seen her actually made her team win invincibility and she does a bad job in each challenge I've seen her do. It may be her thing, but she still continues to win.

    I know the writers will influence specific challenges so that so-and-so can win immunity. But, bringing that up does not prove that so-and-so is not good at challenges. She won the challenge, didn't she?

    It's like saying Harold is not good at challenges. He is clearly the cause of winning at least four (maybe five) challenges for himself or his team. Considering that he's only been through 23 challenges (as opposed to LeShawna's 31, Heather's 34 or Gwen's 30) he has been doing wonderfully. But, you could say, "Oh, he's only won those challenges because the writers picked contests that his skills could win in!"

    Similarly, you could use this argument to say that Tyler is very good at challenges. "The only reason he sucked so much in the dodge ball game was because the writers specifically picked a challenge that he would be bad at! He could be really, really good at drawing and painting stuff, and if they'd made a few challenges on that, he'd have been a TDI god!"

    So, I'm just going to prove my point based on how they helped out in each challenge, not how they might have helped if the challenge had been different.

    Justin is a lazy lump of cheese. He hasn't done anything to help out his team except manipulate Gwen into throwing a challenge. If he has any challenge skills, either physical or mental, he is letting them go to waste. So, yes, he is the worst in challenges for TDA.

    For TDI, I would have to say Tyler. No coordination at all, and he's so confident in his 'abilities' that he believes he should be included in every physical challenge. But, that is NOT helping! Something tells me that, as a jock, he isn't very good in the brains department either. So, he would be the worst in the TDI challenges.

    Owen was the only hunter on his team who tried, he deserves some credit.

    Besides, because Owen was hunting DJ and Duncan, and because the other hunters were being made to protect Heather, no one came after Courtney, so we can't really say she did good because no one really came after her.

    I agree a little bit with it..but still ..Courtney goal in this challenge was not being captured / "killed" by the hunters. Owen's goal was to "kill" the deers in this case Duncan, Dj, Courtney... so she did her part of the challenge ...owen didnt.

    I dont see why that matters.

    Anywayz remember when we were comparing Courtney vs. Harold and you had to give him credit for what he would, almost, should, could, have done?
    You need to look at what people actually do.

    Courtny didnt get shot

    ^ Right. Courtney didn't get shot. But, considering that it wasn't a difficult task, she shouldn't get full points for it. Owen was the only deer who was coming after anyone, and he had been thrown off a cliff. As Duncan clearly showed, it was NOT that hard to evade Owen. Courtney did not get shot, but it wasn't as if she needed to watch her back.

    So, let's see - Courtney did not get shot in a situation where only one person was coming after that team and that person was an incompetent hunter. That is what she actually did. That is NOT a full point on your 'Courtney vs. Owen' spreadsheet.

    Someone else shares my view on Courtney's performance in that challenge! We used it in Courtney v Harold in which Coconut wanted it to be a tie since Harold shot a deer while Courtney "evaded" the hunters...though she, as already been stated, didn't really need to try.
