We might as well. We did it for past seasons. I think it is cool.
Where did the leaderboard go? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.115.36.201 (talk) 21:13, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
The leaderboard is all scrambled. Everything needs to be in the right order. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 07:29, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
What's the purpose of the leaderboard including "Source of recent weight"? I just feel like it's pointless to include it if all entries will always be the same. AISept8 (talk) 17:36, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
Should we use another color because of the fact that there is a lightblue team this season?Christianity922 (talk) 21:15, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
If we have light blue we should just use light blue because that is the color of the team. If we don't we should just use blue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 22:25, 15 December 2010 (UTC) Well they just said theres going to be a new color and that's lightblue or Aqua, but not white! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.51.120.199 (talk) 03:37, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
I've heard rumors that Jillian is retiring after season 11. Is this true?
Yes it is true. But to me, she's just letting those two new unknown trainers break down the doors, i mean really! Jillian, if you're out there, i know that you want to do well with your family and kids, but what about US! i mean you've been doing this for years, but maybe that's why you weren't on season 3 because of this, but now you're doing it again! but to me, i hope it won't be the last time your gonna leave the show, but if you do,...
I'm gonna miss you, really! gonna miss your screams, your laughs, (laughing is not accorded to this message or last message to jillian.) but mostly i'm gonna miss you as part of the show. i just hope it won't be the last time i'll see you, but (crying) i gotta go!
Does anyone have ANY idea who the new trainers might be? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 22:26, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
No idea! here let me answer them.
(New Unknown trainers, if your out there, and if you can hear me, it's war now. bob and jillians 6 teems are doing good! that's the bad news for you, the good news is that your unexpectedly, Better! i mean i don't know who you guys are, or what you just did out there that we didn't see, but in your first week, to me that was SICK!!!!! you know what i mean! huh do ya?)
that was my message to them. i guess i don't know anything yet but guys, it's what the marines said last season, you really think Bob and Jillian are the toughest trainers in the country?...........
You haven't seen nothing yet! as always the competition this season will never be the same again, EVER!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.51.120.199 (talk) 03:46, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
They put out the week 1 summary before the episode even aired. Does anyone know why? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.229.130.144 (talk) 23:05, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
what was really the Weigh-in results at the unknown trainers contestants? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.51.120.199 (talk) 02:33, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
I am very dissapointed with the summary for week 2:
There was be $10,000, plus immunity, for the teams with two of the four trainers who have lost the highest amount of weight this week, and the members of the Biggest Loser Ranch won it, although Jillian Michaels wasn't feeling too well.
Can someone PLEASE make it more detailed. It sounds like an 8 year old wrote it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 08:42, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
Other than people writing them down as the shows air, is there a source for the weigh-in figures? I ask because an anonymous editor changed Rulon's week 4 weight today, and I need to know whether to undo it or carry the change through all of the tables. —C.Fred (talk) 19:31, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Your Welcome. I should probably make a wikipedia account. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 18:49, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Almost forgot. I already have an account xD — Preceding unsigned comment added by SPMking (talk • contribs) 18:57, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
NBC has week-over-week changes at http://www.nbc.com/the-biggest-loser/contestants/, so I'm checking against that. —C.Fred (talk) 19:37, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Currently, the four weeks of immunity the unknowns got is presented as standard immunity. Excerpting the table:
Contestant | Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 | Week 9 | Week 10 | Week 11 | Week 12 | Week 13 | Week 14 | Week 15 | Week 16 | Week 17 | Semi- Final |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Hannah | Irene | X | X | Don | X | X | ||||||||||||
Rulon | X | X | X | X | Larialmy | ? |
TheGuyWhoDoesThings (talk · contribs) suggested a different shading for the four initial weeks of immunity the players got for going with the unknowns, i.e.:
Contestant | Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 | Week 9 | Week 10 | Week 11 | Week 12 | Week 13 | Week 14 | Week 15 | Week 16 | Week 17 | Semi- Final |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Hannah | Irene | X | X | Don | X | X | ||||||||||||
Rulon | X | X | X | X | Larialmy | ? |
Do we want to distinguish it from normal immunity, and if so, do we want to take it one step further and colspan it in the table, like this?
Contestant | Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 | Week 9 | Week 10 | Week 11 | Week 12 | Week 13 | Week 14 | Week 15 | Week 16 | Week 17 | Semi- Final |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Hannah | Irene | X | X | Don | X | X | ||||||||||||
Rulon | U | Larialmy | ? |
Thoughts on the presentation, and any suggestions on a better colour for the new shading, or will purple work? —C.Fred (talk) 06:38, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
I think using purple instead of the color for standard immunity is a good idea. Although I do not think you should colspan the table. And I think it should be represented as "Immunity, not in house for vote" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 18:15, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
In weeks four and five, Don and Irene, respectively, had their starting weights adjusted because they gained weight the prior weight. For scoring purposes, their weights reflected the weight from the week before the gain. I.e., Don gained nine pounds, from 280 to 289, during week three. At the week four weigh-in, it showed his started weight as 280, and even though he actually lost three pounds during the week, the displayed showed +6.
Since that's the results for scoring purposes, shouldn't the weigh-in figures and percentages tables show those results? Should we add an asterisk after the weight and a footnote to explain the apparent scoring anomaly? —C.Fred (talk) 20:51, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
I was wondering if we could use a leaderboard chart for the eliminated contestants. It would act as the other does, except, it would only have the result that is revealed in the peice at the end of the show. Like for Deni, we would put 170 in the current weight box and then update it again at finale, or rather delete it, since the info would be redundant by then since the pounds lost & percentage lost is in the weigh-in chart. Christianity922 (talk) 15:27, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
What's the purpose of the total votes column in the player summary? It should be recaptioned if it only represents the votes the eliminated players received and not all players. —C.Fred (talk) 18:41, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
I thought that the contestants were gonna split into 4 teams and Marci was gonna return to the competition and then complain that she wanted to go home at the weigh-in. But other people are saying Arthur is gonna return to the competition. But if Arthur returns to the competition, who complains that they want to go home at the weigh-in? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 13:18, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
It's Marci's weight, they don't show the weight of the person complaining. --I'm Obviously A Guy Who does things around here! (talk) 08:45, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
I mean, I heard Brett say in the preview "What goes around comes around." So I though Marci pulled a zero again and then complained that she didn't need to be there and wanted to go home. Obviously, it's someone on Cara's team because of the green colour in the background. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 17:27, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
It seems someone has added two new contestants (Haya and Nasim) who I have never heard of or seen on the ranch. Nasim even has weigh-in figures history. I need sources that these contestants and weigh-in figures are real or I am deleting them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.102.155.98 (talk) 15:58, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Shouldn't we include them since they are going to be involved in the finale like last season's never on ranch people were? 65.184.116.38 (talk) 12:12, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
He is suddenly missing. It's Week 16 and he's still in the competition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yunakitty (talk • contribs) 17:03, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
I haven't watched this season, so I don't understand why in this article there are two weigh-ins charts. In the second chart (Part 6), Laris won. I don't know who he is...--Peterxj108 (talk) 14:05, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
Now there's no form at all.--Peterxj108 (talk) 02:18, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
The current writing style for the past few episodes has been very objective. They need to be encyclopedic in nature; therefore a simple summary will suffice. Also, using exclamation points (!) is unnecessary and takes away from the purely informational nature of Wikipedia. Also, current wishes of contestants should be put as " (name) stated that his/her goal was..." not in the entertainment-centered way they are being written. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hichiro16 (talk • contribs) 03:53, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
In this and past articles, the elimination table was set up with no column for the finals, but rather with a semifinal column under which "The Biggest Loser" is indicated. This is unfactual and misleading. The title of "The Biggest Loser" is not granted at the semifinals, it is granted at the finals.
Earlier today, I took the liberty of updating the chart on this page. This is one of three instances today where I've done this. I've also made a large batch of other edits to improve the article, as seen in the history. Two editors have made attempts to revert the change, one claiming "You have to follow the rules like the other seasons". There is no rule. There is what is factually correct and factually incorrect. There is no voting in the semifinal episode for at least the last six seasons, possibly more. I recall in Pay It Forward and the season preceding it that the Final Four ran a marathon, then eventually went to weigh in (no marathon this year, but same ending). They didn't vote afterrwards; America did. The results came at the finale. So I changed "Semifinal" to "Finale", which is factually correct. We need to change this precedent and date it back to all seasons where this is relevant. I'm open to having two columns, one for semifinals for the players "at risk" and then a finale column next to it. What was there before my edits was completely incorrect. CycloneGU (talk) 21:46, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
Should we change the WD in his last cell before the darkgray to 289, since the NBC website of his bio reveals he weighed 289 at the time of his leaving? And for the finale, I think I read a news story and it said he was 290? 65.184.116.38 (talk) 22:00, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:The Biggest Loser: Couples which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 11:15, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
I posted this question on season 7 too but since affects multiple seasons wanted to get a consensus before doing anything. Some paragraphs are present tense, some are past. My opinion is should all be past tense, and think it would read more encyclopedic anyway but this would several edits not only to this season page but other season synopsis'. Is there a general policy or consensus on this? MoviePhan (talk) 18:33, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
