From what I’ve read, the main problem is that the equipment for the game sucked.  Yes, some of Derick’s pegs fell out but the rules indicated that the first to put the pegs in the hole wins.  If they fall out due to a poorly built board, that was deemed to be not the competitor‘s fault so they had staff put the pegs back in.

According to Derrick’s podcast, the same thing happened with Aneesa because the Era 1 board sucked.  Derrick also claimed production helped Horacio with one of his pegs so I am a bit skeptical that Horacio is being completely honest about ‘nobody helping him’.  He sounds like a baby in that interview.

The empty hole in the upper right corner was already filled by Derrick but the peg fell.

The game was cheap, flimsy crap but, of course, this wasn’t explained in the episode and now Derrick is getting blamed for MTV’s cockup.  And people who love drama - Devin, Nurys, Jordan - are hyping the controversy.

Why would MTV cheat to keep old man Derrick on the show instead of Horacio?  That doesn’t make sense.

Horacio will be missed.
Not by me…but probably by people somewhere.  People who eat mayo on Wonder bread sandwiches and love the acting in the Twilight movies.
