It was IMO a technicality and she should have stayed in the game and sent Svetlana home. I think it was pretty stupid of her to pick someone in her own alliance to go against her maybe thinking that the other girls would let her into their clique if she did that...It sucks that Beth had to go home because I was really rooting for her. Well, better luck next time :) I have to say that after watching that episode, I think Beth was robbed.It’s not her fault that she was holding on to the flag when Svet pushed and the flag ripped.

If you read Beth's responses to questions put to her at her myspace accout, you would see that she went to Brazil anticipating an alliance with some from Gauntlet 2, particularly Jodi, Robin and Kina. She also writes about the joy of simply competing. The cast is paid about SAG minimum for these challenges, so it is not a money thing for Beth unless of course she wins. Your implication is absurd. When you look at the beginning of the episode following her departure, you see Beth and Wes talking just before she leaves the duel area. No sour grape in that video. In fact, she appears happy, which is remarkably consistent with what she has written in her blog. Further, in her responses to question put to her at her myspace page (blog.myspace.com/bethstolarczyk), she tells a fan that she can't have sour grapes about a game. Personally, I think she should be unhappy at being cheated out of an opportunity to win $150 by the idiot host, TJ. Chandra, how silly of you.

Maybe if you didn't go into every single challenge thinking that everyone's going to be against you then you wouldn't be in the position you were this time and the last time. You go in acting like everyone is going to hate you and think you're a female dog, and you put that out there so of course others are going to pick up on that. But if you go in with the attitude that you want to do this for the fun of it and maybe win some money it could be different for you. These challenges I don't think should be looked at as an income. Imagine the opportunity you have and the rest of us schleps that will never have it and you should be grateful you have it, no sour grapes ya know?

What happened during the female duel bewteen Beth and Svetlana was unfair but it made for good tv! Personally I think that the producers would of been golden if they had kept Beth in the show, she is definitely good for tv and the ratings no matter what you think about her (guess that is why they keep bringing her back). Anyway, Beth is the true winner! peace out As a viewer I just want to say that it is so obvious that the Duel is so overly produced and that these MTV producers know their job very well!
