Men: 3.6/5.0 vs Women: 2.1/5.0 on the Messy Meter across all 10 seasons. The men are the primary source of mess in 9 out of 10 seasons. The lone exception is Season 4 (Seattle), where Irina and Micah's mean girl alliance and Jackie's messy exit gave the women the crown.
Messiest male seasons: S6 Charlotte (4.5) and S2 Chicago / S9 Denver / S10 Ohio (all 4.0). Jeramey, Shake, Edmund, Chris, and Alex are the Mt. Rushmore of messy LIB men.
Messiest female season: S4 Seattle (3.5). Irina remains the single messiest woman in franchise history.
