About the Blog
Five years ago, we started a Bachelor fantasy league with our immediate circle of friends. More people heard and wanted in, so we created this blog. Now everyone can play along with us.

About Your BachFantasy Co-Founders
Becca and Jorie met as freshmen at Boston University. They share a deep and abiding love for snark, guacamole, Paul Rudd, and Beyonce’s choreography. Becca currently lives and works in digital marketing in New York City. She buys too much lipstick for the amount of time she spends re-watching “30 Rock” in her bed. Jorie lives and writes in Denver. She has recently become a helicopter parent to her dog.
Below, they’ve filled out the same questionnaire as the contestants this season.
Jorie
Age: 28
Occupation: Writer
Current city: Denver
Height: 5’6″
Tattoos: None
Can’t live without: The sweet, sweet combination of oxygen, argon, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide that allows life to flourish on our humble planet.
Biggest date fear: Getting murdered.
If you could have lunch with three people, living or dead, who would it be?
Melissa McCarthy, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and your mom
If you won the lottery, what would you do with your winnings?
Tell no one. Invest. Live strictly off the dividends. Shower my loved ones with outrageous gifts. Become an eccentric aunt who throws fabulous parties and writes a scandalous column for the society pages under a clever nom de plume. Die alone in my large, dusty library and have no one notice for several days, until my beloved housemaid bumps into my corpse with the vacuum. Set my maid up with a cushy retirement.
If you could be someone else for just one day, who would it be?
1000%, Oprah Winfrey. Any other answer to this question is a waste of everyone’s time.
Becca
Age: 28
Occupation: Digital Media Analyst
Current city: Brooklyn
Height: 5’10”
Tattoos: None
Can’t live without: My body systems working in concert with each other. Also, caffeine, probably.
Biggest date fear: A situation that results in Liam Neeson dramatically rescuing me from an Eastern European human trafficking ring.
If you could have lunch with three people, living or dead, who would it be?
Blue Ivy Carter, Tina Fey, and Jorie’s mom.
If you could be any fictional character, who would you be?
Hermione Granger—she kicks ass and takes names, SHE CAN DO MAGIC, and she slays mad dudes.
If you wanted to approach a man you’d never met before, how would you go about it?
First, I’d ruminate on it for 2–3 hours. While I think, the first guy would leave. Then I’d see another guy. My friend would tell me to go for it. I’d plead with her to talk to him for me. She’d say no. Finally, I’d offer him a snack from my purse, and maybe attempt a close up magic trick. Sixty percent of the time, it works every time.

I am wondering if you will be having a blog for the Bachelorette starting up in May??
Hi Casey! We definitely will. Please stay tuned, because we’re going to be publishing a bunch of blog posts in the coming weeks about Andi’s season! Thanks for following along :)
Post the new points for Episode #6 from June 23rd!
When will the scoring and all that be up for Chris’s season?
The site is updated right now for Chris’s season and we’ll be doing an introductory post in the next couple of days. Stay tuned!
Are you going to post for Chris’s season starting Jan 5?
We are! The site is updated right now, and we’ll be doing an introductory post in the next couple of days.
I am wondering if either of you would be up for a dip in the lady pond?
We’re interested. Please contact our people.
Are you doing the Bachelorette in 2015? Also any programs or websites you recommend for tracking this point system in a fantasy league?
We wouldn’t miss it for the world. We’re working on a better points system to track…check back with us soon!
I’m also wondering if there will be any points system put up for the Double B’s?
We’d never leave you hanging. Check back in the next couple days or so and we should have this season’s rules and regs posted!
any updates on how to draft for next season? 2 separate draft teams based on each girl? Only choose from bios?
Also do we know if the bachelorette is chosen after the first episode?
What if two girls draft the same team?
We suggest having each person draft an additional player so you don’t have exactly identical teams.
I am sure I’m just being an idiot, but I can’t seem to find the link for the excel template so I can tally the points for my team. Can someone tell me where it is? Thanks!
Never mind! Found it in FAQs.
Sorry for the incredibly long delay, Cristin. Glad you found it!
so our league is just starting….we always start a couple weeks in and are excited to try your method this season. I have a couple women that want to pick Nick because they see he will be in tomorrow’s episode. Will you be adding him to the list of men and giving his points total by chance? Thanks!
Will you be doing a fantasy thing for Bachelor in Paradise?
I would love these posts to be emailed to me

Hi ladies. QUESTION: After a girl leaves the show do the points she accumulated for that week still count? I thought once her name was crossed out the points no longer counted…
Thank you!
from what I can see here – it looks like becca’s age is incorrect. I think that’s very misleading and would like additional points for myself because of it. (Becca u can add those in for me right?)
also ily.
no one asked you, Brenna.

The new excel spread sheet will not work for me. I downloaded the new spreadsheet. I pasted the teams into league members. I individually inputted each of the contestant scores. Then I went over to the new spreadsheet column (teams post mid season draft) and put in all of the information. Now when I try to look at the scores passed episode 6 it will not tally the points. Could you please help me with this?
Will you be doing a blog for the bachelorette this may?
Hi! I just wanted to check in and see if you are doing this for Jojo’s Season?
Thank you!
Wondering the same thing..Are you doing Jojo’s season??
Hey, looking to get in touch with Becca and Jorie to ask about your experience starting up the blog. Let me know if we can connect.
Do you do a league for paradise coming up??? If not, do you know any site that does?? Thank you!
Sooooo. Getting ready for Nick’s season orr….? :)
I’M READY! Let’s get this started :)
Will this site be updated for Nicks season?
They already leaked the final four. Wasted season.
Is this going to be updated soon for Nick’s season?
When are you going to post info for Nick’s season?
Thank you for this blog, it makes having a fantasy league so much easier to manage and also makes the show MUCH more fun to watch!! Myself and my other league members just wanted to say how awesome you guys are and please keep up all the good work, we appreciate you and all you do!!
Of all the Bachelor fantasy leagues I’ve seen online, this is by far the best. Are you guys going to be doing on for Rachel’s season coming up? If so, when are you going to be posting the point list?
Soooooo any word on why ABC hasn’t posted the cast list? I mean… it starts a week from tonight! We need to make our picks!
I keep checking the website and there’s nothing!! It is stressing me out bc I run a big league. I did find details on 20 guys on wetpaint.cpm so I’m getting prepared with that basic info. I hope they post something soon!
It looks like Dean got points twice in Episode 4 for getting so stay another week — is this a snafu?
Hey there…our league loves following this blog! We are having so much fun! We are having problems with the Excel sheet for adding scores on Epi 6. Not sure if its because we haven’t completed the draft…..anyone else having issues? Wondering if you can help? Thanks a million!
Hi! Are you going to make a draft for Arie?
Hoping you folks are back for Arie’s season!
I, too, am interested in having Arie’s season represented through this website! I really hope you come back <3
Same! Also wondering if you’ll be doing Arie’s season!
I reached out to BachFantasy via email and they said they are taking a break for Arie’s season. Hopefully they’ll be back next season. If anyone knows of another good scoring site, let me know!
Would have rather they skipped Rachel’s than Arie’s! Lol
Are you guys coming back for Becca’s season?
Are you guys going to do a league for Colton’s season??? You are my favourite league to use :)
Does anyone know?? Waiting to see!!!
Please come back!!
