(S08E08) Okay, in a slight departure from the norm, because we're just over the halfway point of the season, and because I was feeling inspired, I decided it was time to hand out some mid-season awards and titles to the contestants as they related to this episode.

Before the season began, if someone told me I'd be able to churn out 600-700 words an episode on a show like this, I'd have laughed in their face, but here we are pushing 1300.

Without further ado.

The Stephen Crane, Red Badge of Courage award goes to:

Brittany, who actually had a "red badger of discouragement", killed and removed from her scalp this week.

I think the show's producers did her quite the injustice by forcing her to be at war with a a live mammal for half the season.

I think Brit showed a lot of heart making it this far considering she was at such a disadvantage. If she made it this far in pain, it'll be interesting to see how well she fairs in good health.
