Alyssa and Tatianna kind of caused their own eliminations.


It was kind of petty to me when they eliminated Phi Phi considering that she didn't do bad in that challenge and had a pretty good track record. They kept Roxxxy and it really but them.

I disagree. I think Phi Phi deserved that elimination and had only been so-so in prior episodes.

Roxxxy should have been eliminated earlier than she was, but I don't see how keeping her caused the other queens to decide to eliminate Alyssa and Tatianna later on--they were also choosing Roxxxy. That's on them.

I think, considering her behaviour, they saw Roxxxy as less of a threat so they got rid of Phi Phi. By that point, Phi Phi had really let her ass hang out and was resorting to her usual bad behaviour. I personally don't mind, what she said about Alyssa was right, she had no real obligation to chat to the girls one on one when she'd made her mind up but she was lying and had acted rude to others by that point. She was also stupid enough to tell Tatianna that she was worried Detox had lost the challenge for her. Tatianna is obviously gonna take her partner's side. She was also the one taking a holier than thou attitude about sending people home and then was very very ready to get rid of Alyssa. She's just not very smart at playing the game.
I do believe Roxxxy should have been sent home for effort but for personality she was far less offensive.

Agreed! Roxxxy should have been gone rather early, but being part of Rolaskatox saved her again and again! It was a shame and I blame Ru for doing no more than mentioning it to them in passing during their chat near the end of the season! I'm waiting for Karma to come around and punish them all! 

In Tatianna and Alyssa's defense, they were thrown under the bus to save Roxxxy. Had someone eliminated her, the game would have changed greatly--even if she was no obvious threat to anyone.
