Were there claims of a fix?

Fans criticised producers over an apparent fix on the live broadcast on 10 May when Phoenix was awarded third place in the 50m breaststroke despite actually finishing fourth behind Chelcee.

In an incident on the live show on 11 May fans complained that the contestants’ fouls were being ignored in order to fix the leaderboard.
During the women’s javelin, Christine and Phoenix’s throws both landed tail end first, which is a foul, but their throws were still accepted.
And in yet another instance, in the show on 12 May, there were complaints that Chelcee should have been disqualified after the cycling event when she overtook the pacesetting bike.
Will there be another season of The Games?
As the latest season has just finished there is no word yet on whether another series will be commissioned.
