Group challenges. Judged as groups or individuals???


After rewatching the last few seasons over the holidays, I noticed one clear extremely unfair judging process. Sometimes when they have group challenges they are judged in groups and sometimes they are judged individually. It is extremely unfair not to advise how they will be judged...

If they are judged individually, then there is no need to perform as a group, you have to outshine your entire group to get through. But if you are judged as a group you need to be able to work hard with the group to make a group effort and make the whole group shine. So the actions and performance will be completely different.

A good example is the double dance challenge when Trixie was teamed with Ginger. Trixie did a great job but Ginger was terrible and thus they were both in the bottom and caused Trixie to be the one to leave. But Trixie was far from deserving to be in the bottom. There was nothing Trixie could have done to improve Ginger's performance.

Especially when getting towards the end, being judged as a group or a pair is extremely unfair..

It has been obvious the last 2 seasons how ridiculous the eliminations have been. It is very obvious when rewatching them. The order of elimination is completely off the hook now. I really hope the show comes back with its integrity and send the appropriate queens home at the appropriate times.
