User:Pikalin38/Fictional Ben and Toad's Contest 5

The fifth season of Ben and Toad's Contest (calling the season All-Stars) will premiere September 20, 2014. This season will feature ten contestants from seasons 1-4 competing again for another trophy, and some contestants from seasons 1-4 are replaced with different contestants usually from injuries, bringing up to 60 contestants.

This season is mostly considered a "group of death" because of it's choice for bringing back most of the Dancing with the Stars winners; unlike 2014 FIFA World Cup Groups B, D and G. Nicole Scherzinger and Jennifer Grey weren't chosen by the president to come back. Season 12 winner Hines Ward, who competed in Ironman 70.3 Kansas the same weekend as Hélio Castroneves' win in Texas, was originally selected, but suffered an injury and was replaced by 3-time IndyCar champion Scott Dixon.

This all-star season will have 48 contestants participate, normally from one of the 32 countries that qualified for 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Two years before this, season 1 extended from 40 to 42 of the Japanese supercentenarian that wanted to participate.

On June 28, 2014, after the Colombian sweep in the Grand Prix of Houston Race 1 and their win over Uruguay, they announced that this season's contestants will extend from 40 to 48, bringing 12 back from each season (6 males and 6 females).

Among the countries that have failed to qualify a contestant for this season were Peru, Poland, Belarus, Slovakia, Spain, Portugal, and Ecuador.

There are going to be four judges: Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli, Benjamin Karl and Anke Karstens. Len Goodman will not be a judge on this season after leaving Dancing with the Stars season 18, and four seasons of Ben and Toad's Contest. He will be replaced by Anke Karstens from season 5 to present (her country won the 2014 FIFA World Cup). The show is expected to have four judges from Season 4 to further on.

The day after the closing ceremony of the Sochi Paralympics, the news announced that Sochi Olympic bronze-medalist Alena Zavarzina will be replacing Katherine Heigl from season 2 due to an injury.

With the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification for Brazil going on from season 13 of DWTS until season 3 week 10 of BATC, contestants announced by the president were referred to have more athletes than others.

There were 50 countries entering BATC qualification. Had Lionel Messi of 🇦🇷 chosen, the cast should have ended up with an all-CONMEBOL (South America), inviting 1 season 1 contestant, 1 season 3 contestant and 2 season 4 contestants. Carlos Huertas, Sebastian Saavedra, Carlos Munoz, and Juan Pablo Montoya would all be part of the cast. After Helio Castroneves' crash in Houston Race 2, they announced that Mission Apolo was changed to Mission 🇦🇷 so that they can match it with Lionel Messi.

It was announced on the game between Ukraine and Belarus on the Mid-Ohio weekend that Channing Tatum suffered an injury. His replacement was named New Zealander Scott Dixon. Season 2's Hines Ward suffered an injury during a BATC event, with his replacement being Lionel Messi of Argentina, who has played with Argentina at Brazil 2014. Those contestants that originally were selected but got replaced include: Leah Remini, Valj Semerenko, Katherine Heigl, Shawn Johnson, Channing Tatum, Hines Ward

Team countries

The contestants will select a country that qualified for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, including three countries that failed: Canada, Thailand and China PR for FIFA Women's World Cup 2015. There is a maximum four contestants per country.

The 2014 FIFA World Cup winners Germany will return as a team, this time having the same ones from season 1: Marini (captain), Ohno, Castroneves and Smith. They were on the Triathlete Magazine, seeing Germany in the September 2014 edition, the same month as the airing of the season. Five new contestants Déborah Anthonioz, Karim Benzema, Edin Džeko, Sergio Aguero and Gonzalo Higuain were all present for the magazine.

🇵🇾 Paraguay was revealed as a country team for season 5 when Chicagoland Speedway was rained out; and therefore 🇩🇪 of season 1 advances to the fast 12.

There is a maximum two wild cards for each team because Brazil made it to the 2014 FIBA World Cup quarter-finals. Additionally the lower ranked team defeating the higher ranked team at Euro 2016 qualifiers was not the nicest at all for season 5. So many shockers happened on the Euro 2016 qualifying: Cyprus over 2014 World Cup debutants Bosnia and Herzegovina!

Shakira announced that she will not have Valerie Harper on her team, because of her popular picks in the Derby Dead Pool.

Contestants
Rumoured contestants from the Winter Olympics in Sochi before Brazil include: Ekaterina Tudegesheva, Natalia Soboleva, Kwak Yoon-Gy, Lee Jung-Su, Lee Ho-Suk, Kana Nishino, Noh Jin-Kyu, Marion Kreiner and Andrey Sobolev. They are transported to Season 6.

Lee Ho-Suk and Lee Jung-Su are Vortex's captains, as Polina Edmunds (replacement for Lee Eun-Byul) and Arianna Fontana were named Infinity's captains.

User:Pikalin38/Fictional Dancing on Ice 3 was aired before the games in Nanjing.

Leah Remini suffered an injury during trials just like when Wang Meng collided before the games in Sochi. Her replacement is named Adelina Sotnikova.

Justyna Kowalczyk won't be coming back to participate due to the cross country skiing not being in this season. Valj Semerenko suffered a back injury which caused only her sister Vita to compete. Her replacement is named Carina Vogt.

During the filming, Yoshi said "Kim A-Lang, you wanna join us? I am sure you need to. You look nice with the stats that Yoshi wants to take."

Emmitt Smith has confirmed to not come back because American Apolo Ohno did not compete in Sochi (announced retirement). However he was announced as a contestant following the sweep in IndyCar by Colombia.

Fidel Castro and Kirk Douglas are not coming back.

Sin Da-Woon is still rumored to participate. Ladina Jenny, Julie Zogg, Annamari Chundak, Nadya Ochner, Michela Moioli and Valeriya Tsoy are not sure about participating. It was transported to season 6.

Sanna Lüdi is not sure about participating.

Shawn Johnson is participating in the Celebrity Apprentice. Her replacement is named Kim A-Lang. Many people want either Viktor Ahn or Vladimir Grigorev to participate.

Lee Eun-Byul still is in the rumors.

Short track speed skaters Jumpei Yoshizawa from Japan, South Koreans Park Seung-Hi, Cho Ha-Ri and Shim Suk-Hee have been confirmed after Wang Meng's injury causing her not competing in Sochi.

Christina Aguilera and Natalie Gumede are also not coming back.

Butoh and Buyo are not coming back due to Sochi.

Olivia de Havilland has confirmed that she will not be returning. So Corky Ballas is not partnering anyone on this season.

Valerie Harper has confirmed that she is not coming back because she might die before it starts. Misao Okawa has also been confirmed to not come back.

Licata and Madigan have confirmed that they're not coming back.

Adelina Sotnikova is confirmed by the Apprentice news of Shawn Johnson.

Apolo Anton Ohno and Sung Si-Bak decided to switch their professional partners for this season because both of them decided to not compete, and missed out the Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia.

Viktor Ahn was a replacement for Jiroemon Kimura from week 13 until week 16.

The last spot was declared a draw, between Vladimir Grigorev and Zan Kosir; after the UEFA qualifying game for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada between Iceland and Denmark also ended in a draw. During the 2014 FIFA World Cup, the draw ended with Zan Kosir being the winner; therefore Russia was crestfallen again for representing another contestant. Switzerland won UEFA Group 3 for the 2015 Women's World Cup in Canada; the only team to qualify between the June 12-July 13 dates of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. The other teams will qualify for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup after the 2014 IndyCar season ends in Fontana to determine the 2014 winner; mostly Team Penske teammates Will Power, or DWTS Season 5 winner Helio Castroneves. The pole position went to Germany, so many BATC contestants decided to have the German team of season 1 as the winner.

The president announced that there would be both teams dancing to two FIFA World Cup official songs from two editions for the groups. Group 1 will contain of the men, while group 2 will have the women. The order in the fall requires the groups first.

On August 9, 2014, Marta, Christine Sinclair, Lisa De Vanna, Lara Dickenmann, Janica Kostelic, Isabel Clark, Cristiane and Fraenzi Maegert-Kohli were announced as the remaining eight captains for Infinity. The day later, David Villa, Gerard Pique, Tim Cahill, Will Power, Miroslav Klose, Luis Suarez, Robin Van Persie and James Rodriguez were announced for Vortex.

Apprentice:

DWTS:

Week 1 Guests
In week 1, they are allowing contestants to bring guests over for their first dance. Example if Alena Zavarzina brings her husband Vic Wild, and she brings all the Russian alpine snowboarders that competed on home soil.

The Toady Oldies said that Italy is hosting a game show.

In short track speed skating in Sochi, the Yoshi Eggs can't handle winning the men's events due to the fact that Noh Jin-Kyu and Apolo Ohno are not competing.

DeathList 2015 Choices
The Ben and Toad's Contest contestants can now vote on any contestant on any season since Valerie Harper made it to the 2014 List. They cannot vote on anyone under the age of 15 since the BATC rules in the fall and winter meet the Olympic age in both occasions, born before July 1 in their place of birth. They cannot vote on Chloe Kim. Castroneves might be a good choice for this list since Italy tells him to not be on Team Penske, and move to a different team for the 2015 season. They said "Maybe Cloris Leachman.". Unanimous said "Wilko Johnson, Valerie Harper and Sam Simon are all dying in 2014. Apolo Ohno is dying now. Are you crazy?".

Previous seasons
Only the contestants on the first four seasons are included. Most contestants are from countries that qualified for the 2014 World Cup, expect a couple contestants came from countries that failed. 2015 FIFA World Cup hosts Canada failed to qualify for the first time.

Top 5 Predictions
The votes are for Winter Olympians. Even though Zavarzina said they can't vote on the same person, they choose from any of the contestants participating. The contestant with the most votes will be awarded on the finale on January 31.

Apprentice Results
Adelina Sotnikova and Zendaya are both too young for the Apprentice, since they need to be born before July 1, 1996 in their place of birth. Adelina Sotnikova was born a few hours into July 1, 1996 in Moscow.
