It’s December, which can mean one thing and one thing only – it’s time for this thing which I’ve only done once before and am now declaring to be annual because why not? or The TiBB Reality Ranking (now with even less randomness) if you’re nasty!

So, those of you with a decent memory might recall that this time last year, I ran The TiBB Reality Ranking 2k15, a search to find TiBB’s favourite reality star of the year. In the end, Janice Dickinson won out over Brittnee Blair, because of course she did. Turns out that it went ok by my standards, so I’ve decided to do it all over again (except for 2k16, because that’s how these things work). After all, with such horrors as Gold Stars vs. New Stars, Survivor: Game Changers, some talent show based around Gary Barlow and somehow yet more series of The Voice and The Jump on the horizon, I thought now would be a nice time to reflect on a mostly good year of reality telly before it all goes to pot. Therefore, I present to you:

Yeah my logo-making skills are still as **** as they were last year, what of it?

We’re all a year older and wiser (lol) but the rules remain more-orless the same: pick up to 30 of your favourite contestants from reality TV shows which have aired in the past year and PM them to me in a nice little list. I'll tally up the results and present them in a... way. I'm not sure which. The only real stipulation is that the people you nominate have to be from a competition show (i.e. one that they were eligible to win), so no Real Housewives of Widnes or the like. I’ve got a lot of eligible shows in the logo itself (BB, I'm a Celeb, Love Island, X Factor, Strictly, Bake Off, Survivor, Amazing Race, Drag Race… you get the idea), but if you want to pick something virtually unheard of like Albania’s Next Top Potato Carver, feel free. Also I’m aware that some shows haven’t ended yet, but by the time voting closes, the likes of I’m a Celeb and X Factor will have ended and the likes of The Apprentice, Survivor and Strictly will be near enough to ending that you should have a pretty good idea of who you like by that. Also also, I’m aware that America’s Next Top Model begins a new cycle in a week or two, but they’re just being difficult. Anyway. Please rank these people from 30 points (your favourite reality star of 2k16) to 1 point (your thirtieth favourite reality star of 2k16). If you wish to pick fewer than 30 people, feel free to do that too. For example, if you only rank 22 people, you’d give your top reality personality 22 points and so on and so forth.

As with last year, the current plan is that anyone nominated by two or more people will qualify. I’ve got no maximum number of people I’m allowing to qualify just yet, but let’s put it at around 75 for now. Also as with last year, I’ll be doing a write-up for each person ranked, and since I’ve actually watched most of the shows this year, that task might be a little easier. However, because this is your countdown and I’m not one to hog the limelight, I’m also delegat-I mean opening up the floor to you lot. If there’s anyone you feel so passionate about that you want to tell the world about them in the form of a short write-up, then that’ll be more than welcome. I’ll post a list of the qualifiers as they, well, qualify for anyone who wishes to be as kind as to do this. If not, then I’ll bull**** my way through 75-odd write-ups (write-ups? Writes-up? idk)

Nominations will provisionally close on Friday 16th December and there may be a repechage round afterwards to make up the numbers. The countdown itself will be held sometime in the week before Christmas, aka whichever night TiBB Xmasvision or Most Loved or whatever aren’t on. And fingers crossed that TiBB won’t go down for several hours during the middle of it this time x

Feel free to ask any questions because this is probably as clear as mud. Now, get nominating! Or not! It’s really up to you tbh!

[Cal.]

I'll be ensuring Charlie Doherty's win.

[EspeonBB]

Alecia/Tiffany top 2

[Amy Jade]

Is there a list to nominate from?

Nope, you can pick from any contestant from any show this year (within the limitations I specified in the OP, that is)

Here's a non-exhaustive list of shows you could nominate from, though:

Spoiler:

The Amazing Race
American Idol
The Apprentice
Big Brother UK
Big Brother US
Big Brother: Over the Top
Big Brother Canada
Britain's Got Talent + international variants
Celebrity Big Brother
The Great British Bake Off
I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! + international variants
The Jump
Love Island
Project Runway
RuPaul's Drag Race
RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars
Strictly Come Dancing + international variants
Survivor + international variants
The Voice + international variants
The X Factor + international variants

(I've probably forgotten half the shows eligible)

[Amy Jade]

Can I nominate from Real Housewives franchises?

[caprimint]

I'll definitely nominate in this at some point

[Amy Jade]

I just reread sorry

[MB.]

I'm limiting it to people from competition shows (sorry), because otherwise there'd be thousands of qualifiers and we'd never get anywhere If any Real Housewives etc have competed in a reality show where they've been eligible to be eliminated/win, like Celebrity Apprentice, BB, Dancing With the Stars and so and so forth, then yep, that's fine

(It's a bit of a complicated system I've drawn up, I know)

[Jamie89]

Excited for this Also, I'd be happy to do a write up for this icon if it helps?...



Congrats on the logo by the way it's great

Thanks And I'd love to see what you come up with for Miss Jensen (I'd say 'if' she qualifies, but I don't really think that's a question we need to ask)

I'm holding out hope that this doesn't follow the 2016 trend of harrowing voting results but yes I will be on the campaign trail to get her in it!

[Cal.]

I'd offer to do one for miss Charlie Doherty but I'm sure you'll write a gorgeous one for her anyway.

[Ross.]

Lisa Snowdon is coming for the win

[EspeonBB]

And what about Nikki sis?

[Shaun]

I will have my list of bake off and drag race contestants with you shortly. I hope we all remember Victoria Coren's stint on the celeb bakeoff.

[Black Dagger]

I was just about to say I hope we're ready to crown Victoria the winner. Nice to know that our great minds think alike again x

[MB.]

btw, since I wisely decided to start this on Christmas name change day, if you send your PM to MB., chances are I won't get it (or at least I think that's how it works?) So that's yet another complication to consider in this already convoluted format xo

[Shaun]

yes thank you josy, you horrendous chode

[Jason.]
