PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"TAR16 Casino Game - Wk7 Results / Wk8 Entry" |
LAST EDITED ON 04-04-10 AT 06:44 PM (EST)Comedy of ErrorsWow, that was a trainwreck of an episode. Of the five teams that performed the Coconut Detour, three of them had to go back to repeat it. We also had racers forget the cardinal rule of airports on The Amazing Race: Always Get a Seat in the Front of the Plane. It was kind of weird how that one thing affected the rankings so much. And, in the most shocking result yet, Jet & Cord finished last this week, but were not eliminated. Week 7 Results 1st place - Steve/Allie (2x) 2nd place - Dan/Jordan (1.8x) 3rd place - Brent/Caite (1.1x) 4th place - Louie/Michael (.9x) 5th place - Carol/Brandy (.2x) 6th place - Jet/Cord (0x) Yikes.This was a really, really rough week for scores in general. Jet & Cord were extremely popular picks, which caused a lot of wagers to be lost. To make matters worse, Louie & Michael scored negative as well. The Lucky 7 bonus game did bail a few players out, though. And there were a good number of sneaky Dan/Jordan and Steve/Allie bets too. The answer to the (+1) Question was "Yes" this week, as Jet & Cord said, "oh my gravy" right before a commercial break. Overall, we had an astounding 9 players bust out of the game, which is probably a single-week record for the Limit Game. The players were Weez, Starshine, FFantasyFX, taffnic, sarah1234, dragonflies, bbenzenberg, IanQuentin, and HauntedOne. Thanks for playing, all of you. Free drinks to everyone, as well as a complimentary "We Hate Jet & Cord Ignoring Rules" T-shirt. A lot of movers and shakers this week. The Greatest Gainer Award goes to tribephyl for halving the rank from #40 to #20 with a risky All-In Lucky 7 bet. Another big mover was kidflash212, who moved 18 ranks, all the way up to #6. Outstanding.The Perfect Bet Award goes to both the risky wagerer tribephyl on the Lucky 7 wager. Very cool. Leaderboard 1. (+3) CTgirl - 426 2. (+2) KwietOne - 383 3. (+3) Yogi - 378 4.

(+1) HauntedOne - 0 CTgirl overtakes KwietOne by tacking on a sneaky Dan/Jordan wager. The max score didn't go up too much, but it did make the whole table more top-heavy with scores. Week 8 Payout Table 1st place - 2x 2nd place - 1.9x 3rd place - .8x 4th place - .7x 5th place - .6x 6th place - 0xMax Individual Bet - 85 points (+1) Question It's pretty clear that Brent/Caite and Carol/Brandy aren't the best of friends. Will either team say that they want the other team to finish last or be eliminated? For the (+1) question, general put-downs don't count. We're looking for either team to say that they want the other team out of the race, eliminated, finishing last, or any other way to say they don't want them on the show anymore. Bonus Game - Truth ChainsWe tried this game last year and it was a little too oblique to be fun, so we're going to tweak the rules this time. In this game, players can wager on how well they can tell which team will beat which. You will do this by making two chain statements, each involving three of the six teams. These chains will be guesses at their general ranking order at the end of the next episode. You're not looking for exact ranks, you're looking at who's going to beat who. In a sense, you'll basically say that "TeamA will beat TeamB, who will in turn beat TeamC". And you'd make a similar statement for the other three teams you haven't used yet. You can also use math notation if you want to show your statements simpler. For example, saying that... Steve/Allie > Carol/Brandy > Jet/Cord Dan/Jordan > Brent/Caite > Louie/Michael Would be the same as saying... "Steve/Allie beats Carol/Brandy, and Carol/Brandy beats Jet/Cord" "Dan/Jordan beats Brent/Caite, and Brent/Caite beats Louie/Michael" You have to use all 6 teams to make a valid guess. And you have to make two separate chains containing three teams each. The chains are completely unrelated, too. In our example, it doesn't matter if Steve/Allie beats Dan/Jordan or vice-versa. You'd only saying how Steve/Allie stacks up against Carol/Brandy & Jet/Cord (and Dan/Jordan with B/C and L/M). If both statements are completely true at the end of the next leg, then you win your wager. If even one part of the chain is false, then you'd lose the bet. It's all or nothing. Half-truths don't count. Truth Chain Payout Table Correct Answer - 7x Incorrect Answer - 0xMaximum Bet - 20 points Since this is still a new game with a lot of rules, don't be afraid to ask questions if you have any doubts about what a valid wager is. I'll be happy to answer them! TAR16 Teams Remaining Brent/Caite Carol/Brandy Dan/Jordan Jet/Cord Louie/Michael Steve/Allie Good luck! Total guess as to what would be a fair payout to the Bonus Game would be. I guess I'll find out depending on how many people play it.
