  1. Ann says:

    Would Nick and Shawn both get 50pts for making it to hometown dates?

    • Ann says:

      I’m not sure if I missed this or not, but when did Nick go on a picnic?

      • Bach Fantasy says:

        So there was a moment I believe during hometowns (but it could’ve been before) where Kaitlyn and Nick were snuggling on a blanket surrounded by s’mores ingredients and wine.

    • Bach Fantasy says:

      Yes! Totally forgot that was a category and that it happened last night…ABC hasn’t been following the traditional format this year and it’s driving me crazy.

  2. Amanda says:

    Ben H also told Kaitlyn that he loved her!

  3. Melanie says:

    Hi! Thanks again for all of this work!
    -I agree with Ann above that Nick and Shawn should get points for Hometowns OR the one-on-one date points but not both but will obviously do whatever you say is right :-)
    -Blurring for body part was originally set as 30 points, not 20 points
    -I will start thinking of MTA categories! My favorite episode!

    • Bach Fantasy says:

      Thanks for the Hometown Dates callout, Melanie! Updated above. And good catch on the blurred body parts points, also updated :)

  4. Melanie says:

    -Being invited to the “hot seat” to talk to Chris Harrison
    -Discussing a new relationship since leaving the show
    -Admits to still having feelings for Kaitlyn
    -Apologizing to Kaitlyn
    -Apologizing to another dude on the show
    -Asking Kaitlyn what went wrong
    -Mentioning Britt (side note – does anyone else think it’s weird that they didn’t make the fact that Ben originally loved Britt an issue? Because of their love of their sponsor children? I feel like ABC didn’t capitalize on that drama)
    -Keeping “not here for the right reasons” in the mix from the original point structure

    • Kayla B says:

      I especially like the “Hot Seat” point category!! that should be a big one since not many guys are invited up!

  5. LoeeC says:

    I think that NIck Cried too

  6. Dan says:

    I didn’t think the fantasy suite dates counted as one-on-ones? I don’t think it did for Nick last week.

    Also, Nick cried while he was talking to his mom! And I think he danced with Kaitlyn in front of his family for some reason?

    Thanks so much!

    • Bach Fantasy says:

      Good call on the dancing and the tears! Updating now. I will double check what my fellow co-founder did with the points last week, re: the one-on-one dates. Thanks!

  7. Holly says:

    We need some tie breakers in our league! Any suggestions for using the MTA episode for that?

    • Bach Fantasy says:

      You could have each lady draft only ONE contestant from her entire team to receive points for tonight. Does that makes sense? So I might choose Ian, and another league member might choose JJ, and we’d only receive points for what those individual fellas do tonight.

  8. We definitely need to have a lot more points for this Men Tell All than we had for Chris’ season! I feel like there weren’t enough, and this is a good opportunity for some teams to gain some serious points! The ones listed above were awesome. Here are a couple more, including smaller things to help boost some points:

    Having Chris Harrison cut him off (you know, if he gets on a rant or talks too much about one issue)
    Being on the blooper reel (only get points once)
    Being asked if he still loves Kaitlyn (bonus points if he says she’ll always have a special place in my heart, even more bonus points if he flat out says yes!)
    Using the word bromance (This might come into play with the Clint and JJ connection)
    Being announced as going on Bachelor In Paradise (I definitely think this is a must! It’s the same idea as being the next Bachelor!!)
