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."

LAST EDITED ON 05-04-10 AT 11:49 PM (EST)

Language Barrier

It's been awhile since they've had a language barrier problem like that. It was so bad that it literally caused Dan & Jordan to forfeit a two-hour lead over Michael & Louie. We got a little bit of the "Ugly American" problem going on too, which was a bit disappointing.

Louie & Michael ended up being eliminated, mostly due to their inability to find rubber stamps.

Week 10 Results
1st place - Brent/Caite (2x)
2nd place - Jet/Cord (1.7x)
3rd place - Dan/Jordan (.3x)
4th place - Louie/Michael (0x)

(+1) No More!

The (+1) game went out with a whimper. Jet & Cord were unanimously the top pick, and ended up sucking away a lot of those final (+1)s. They still netted a lot of people good returns with the 1.7x payout.

The answer to the bonus question was "Brent". He said the episode quote after leaving the Detour. Only Yogi got this correct.

The Greatest Gainer Award goes to Molaholic, who climbed 4 ranks overall. You can tell that there weren't much moving and shaking in the ranks going on?

The Perfect Bet Award goes to Belle Book (1.85x), who even split the points on Jet/Cord and Brent/Caite. Also, Yogi (1.83x) had a great week, getting the bonus correct.

Leaderboard
1. Yogi - 1649
2. CTgirl - 1399
3. MaxZ - 1200
4. KwietOne - 1185
5. flipxcyd - 972
6. louislam - 920
7. vennui - 868
8. Jims02 - 824
9. michel - 802
10. beau_30 - 579
11. ARNutz - 518
12. Belle Book - 494
13. MzTee - 493
14. kidflash212 - 450
15. qwertypie - 412
16. Element King - 255
17. Wallflower66 - 167
18. Snidget - 128
19. chiubakka - 38
20. Silver03 - 33
21. Nessie - 24
22. kduck - 16
23. Molaholic - 6
24. VisionQuest - 4
25. Ontheroadagain - 4
26. jbenz - 3

The (+1) game is over. Look at how simple and clean that leaderboard looks. I'm thinking next year's going to feature scores like this:

8t. (+1.5) Jims02 (fire type) - 824 (120 points debt, 1.6% rate)

It'll be a baffling game of wonder and what-the-heck-is-going-on!

Finale Payout Table
1st place - 2x
2nd place - Break Even
3rd place - 0x

Max Individual Bet - NO LIMIT

In the final week of the TAR Casino Game, there is no limit on your regular wager. Feel free to wager as many of your points as you'd like. Make sure to leave a few for the bonus game.

Since we're in the final week, if you'd like to keep your wagers a secret, you can send me a private message with your final picks.

I'm going to post my picks sometime on Friday, so if you want your pick to be Super Secret, wait til the weekend. I'll try not to look at my PM box, though, if you want to send them early.

Bonus Game - Joe "Million"aire...

...sucked. I don't know why people watched that show.

As always, for the finale bonus game, players may wager on which team they think will say the word "million" first. Variations on the word count, such as "millions", "millionaire", or "sgfadsvmillionwequtrhrjgh".

All I'm looking for are the letters M-I-L-L-I-O-N in sequence. Spoken, of course.

Million Payout Table
Correct Answer - 3x
Incorrect Answer - 0x

Max Bet - 150 points

If no contestant says "million" in the episode (it hasn't happened so far, though), then there is no correct answer and all bets get 0x.

TAR16 Teams Remaining
Brent/Caite
Dan/Jordan
Jet/Cord

Good luck! Remember, if you didn't see the message above, you can PM me your picks this week!

Wow. I think my Everestine gain was due more to the inefficiencies of my general neighborhood than my own pathetic prognosticationability. But, I could be wrong.

I'll go all in on the Okie Terrors




Seana did another one.

824 to spend.

653 points - Brent/Caite

Bonus
150 points - Dan/Jordan

Banking 21 points, so I can net a profit for the season.


I guess I have to roll the dice and hope to get lucky.
