Welcome, welcome as we kick off Season 13 of “The Bachelorette.” How did your team handle the first Purge? I’m already one man down and nervous about my chances this season.
Reminder that we announce our wildcard points category each Monday before the show starts on Twitter. Follow us there to see what it is. (And come live-tweet with us! There are gifs and snark a-plenty to make it worth your while.)
Wildcard points: 15 points went to the first guy to arrive in anything but a limo. Those went to Blake E., who arrived in the middle of a marching band, presumably because he is an “aspiring drummer.” It seems like he is aspiring to be the house tattletale, which will likely be his demise. Gotta get fluent in Bachelorese before you go on this show, Blakey boy.

Bryan interrupted Fred’s one on one time. Shouldn’t he have gotten points for that?
I didn’t catch that but I’ll update now — can anyone else confirm?
yes, he did!
Does Blake E. get points for playing an intstrument (drum)?
Gah, yes he should. Updated now!
Can you list Diggy under Kenneth “Diggy” on the scoring posts? Makes it easier to go down the scoring column on the spreadsheet, since the spreadsheet has him under K and not D? thanks!!!
Sure can! We’ll switch it going forward. :)
Would you consider Alex’s vacuum-entrance (and all subsequent vacuum-work) to be dancing?
HMMM not quite because the premise was that he was vacuuming, albeit annoyingly.
BUT it was an homage to Rachel’s vacuum-dancing in her intro package last season, and she was awarded dancing points :)
Thank you very much for handling the scoring for us, last night was crazy with so many men.
I think Rob’s fantasy shtick was meant to be a throwback to her limo conversation with Nick when talked about setting her fantasy football lineup before she left for the show. Didn’t seem to work out that well for him, though!
Hey guys! I just noticed that there’s an error in the spreadsheet formulas because there’s one more guy than last season so points for Will aren’t being included. I think I can fix it in mine but just wanted to make sure everyone knew!
Ah! Thank you! I’ll fix and repost!
On your spreadsheet your formula is not pulling the last row for Will on player 11. It needs to be to r32 and is only going to r31. Thought you might want to mention that to people
Does Matt not get points for a costume?
Didn’t Blake E say “Lucas is not here for the right reasons” in episode 1 earning him 15 points? Or does that only apply after they are actually in the house together and not just during the first episode?
Thank you guys for doing this! Looking forward to another great season.
Thanks BachFantasy for continuing the grand tradition! We’ve had a work Bach pool for the last few seasons and nothing beats your wit and style. Keep up the good work! :)
Thanks so much for saying that! Made my night.
Hi! Glad to be back! Big questions/controversy in our league:
Michael was not called, was not seen with a rose, and was not seen in future previews. HOWEVER, Chris specifically called Michael out as having attended the Kareem Abdul Jabar basketball date and being excited because he was a basketball player. Do you or does anyone have contradicting evidence from the show that we missed on our replays?
Was he offscreen called up for a rose like Christen was offscreen given a group date rose last season? (Or offscreen eliminated?)
*(Chris specifically called him out in that sham of a Facebook live stream announcement)
Dang, this controversy is wild!!! ABC must’ve edited him out, after the fact. We’re going with what we know, which is that he’s no longer on the show. But WTF is going on! We need dirty deets from Chris Harrison.
Our league is having the same debate! ABC’s Fantasy League website has him grayed out, so I’m assuming he’s “officially” eliminated… but will maybe come back to ask for a second chance?
