For a show that’s called “The Men Tell All,” I sure didn’t learn shit last night. What a snooze. Although there was some rampant trash-talking and weird apologies (get off your dang knees, Ian). Here’s how it all shook out.
We didn’t score flashbacks to the season. For example, they showed His Royal Foxiness Ben H. boxing in a helmet but we didn’t award him points for wearing a helmet. It’s like double jeopardy; you can’t get points for the same crime twice. (Thanks for staying with me through that mixed metaphor.)
Lastly, I paused so. many. times during that “Bachelor in Paradise” clip. I tried to get everyone. I might’ve missed someone. (Was that Joshua making out in the bed with a lady?) I know we said yesterday that the contestants had to be announced but I only meant that they had to be featured as being on Bachelor in Paradise in some way. Making an appearance in the season preview totally counts.

How do I go about inputting these points on the spreadsheet since Men Tell All isn’t included?
Shea – good question! Bach producers this season really effed with the episode schedule. If you’re Excel-phobic, the easiest way to do this is add the Men Tell All points to the Episode 10 column, and then add the finale points on top of those. In short, you’ll have the sum of MTA and finale points in episode 10.
if you’re bold and want to create a new tab in the doc for the MTA episode, I can list out steps. Let me know if you’d prefer that!
Can I have steps? I’d like to keep it separate :) Thanks.
Thanks so much! That totally makes sense! Unfortunately, when I went to do it, the points didn’t end up on the Ep #10 page. I think another comment was made regarding that. I tried to figure it out myself but the equations look right so I’m not sure what to do. I so appreciate all the work you put into this. Thanks again!
I actually think I figured it out… I think that all of the Ep #10 equations have an “M” where they should have a “K”. :)
Tanner is definitely on BIP!
He is?!?! Where did you see that? Have a link?

Thanks so much for doing this!!
In Ian’s total – Apologizing to Kaitlyn is worth 10 pts
Great catch. Updated, thanks!
Don’t you think Jared should get points for saying he still has feelings for Kaitlyn?
Does the episode 10 column on the spreadsheet refer to the Men tell All or the final episode? Also, will there be points calculated for the final episode???
Thanks!
Hi there – see my response to Shea’s comment above!
What about Tanner being on bachelor in paradise? No points for that?
Isn’t Joshua on Bachelor in Paradise too?
I entered the men tell all points into the episode ten column but they are not automatically adding up on the individual episode points sheet… any idea why?
Hi Team
Will there be any special points for tonight’s Final Rose and After the Final Rose Ceremonies? Just want to alert my troops as to what to be watching for. Besides all the usual drama! Thanks for your hard work!
Cathy M
Please tell me there will be an Excel document for Bachelor in Paradise. This is becoming a huge thing at my office and everyone is itching it get into my pool!
Hi! I know this is late (I am so late on scoring and my entire league is mad at me), but I caught a mistake. Ben Z. saying he had fallen in love with Kaitlyn = 20 points, not 25, according to original point structure, right?
Also thanks!!
(and Jared re: above). And Joshua is def on BIP.
More importantly, I have an excel spreadsheet I’ve created for my league – happy to share it with you for next season so you can include for the larger group if that would be helpful!
