So You Think You Can Polka!Tony: "So, you're not gonna go to law school? What do you wanna do then?" Mike: "I wanna dance!" Making the teams do dances seems to be one of TAR's favorite tasks to do these days, especially since it has resulted in some of the most memorable meltdowns. I wouldn't call this polka a huge meltdown, but it certainly led to some interesting visuals during it. Honestly, my biggest highlight was that super-long apartment building, just for the sheer weirdness of it. Week 5 Results 1st place - Tim/Marie (2x) 2nd place - Jason/Amy (1.8x) 3rd place - Travis/Nicole (1.6x) 4th place - Nicky/Kim (1.2x) 5th place - Tim/Danny (.8x) 6th place - Leo/Jamal (.4x) 7th place - Ally/Ashley (.2x) 8th place - Brandon/Adam (0x) Boost or No BoostThis week proved to be a little tricky overall, with the range of bets being all over the place. Jason/Amy were the most popular pick overall, netting a lot of players a nice 1.8x payout. Tim/Marie fetched a decent number of wagers too, netting some nice Booster payouts. Brandon/Adam's last place finish set quite a few people back, however, even knocking a few players out of the game. Speaking of which, we did lose a few players this week: MzTee, chiubakka, Snidget, jbenz, and Molaholic. You would think that Brandon/Adam, after finishing 1st before the TBC, wouldn't fall to the very back of the pack... Darn bunching. Thanks for playing everyone! This week's Greatest Gainer Award goes to Georjanna, who climbed 9 ranks to land in the Top 3 for the week. Now that's a big change in fortune!The Perfect Bet Award also goes to Georjanna (2.88x), who narrowly edged out taffnic (2.86x) for the prize. Both players benefited great from some nice Booster bets. Leaderboard 1. Jims02 - 117 2. Ontheroadagain - 98 3. Georjanna - 92 4.

Molaholic - 0 The great and handsome and wonderful and handsome Jims02 has leaped into the top spot for the week, where he will most likely remain for the rest of the season. Especially with potential 4x payouts each week, he's definitely got this thing in the bag. ...I'll last one week. Week 6 Payout Table 1st place - 2x 2nd place - 1.7x 3rd place - 1.4x 4th place - Break even 5th place - .6x 6th place - .3x 7th place - 0xMax Individual Bet - 50 points Max Booster - 2x Bonus Game - It's PAT!Like the tides or the sunset, we are in an never-ending cycle of playing the PAT bonus game. Maybe it's more like a Groundhog's Day loop. PAT stands for the Painfully Average Team which is the team that finishes right smack in the middle of the pack. They are neither awesome, nor sucky. They're just kinda there. For this week, with 7 teams remaining, that'll be the team that finishes in 4th place. So you're essentially placing a wager on which team will finish 4th. If you're right, you get a huge payout. If you're wrong you lose the bet. This is a completely separate wager from your regular bet, though. You may also only make one bonus wager, so it's an all-or-nothing gamble. PAT Payout Table Correct Answer - 7x Incorrect Answer - 0xMax Bet - 15 points Usually I make the bonus worth about the amount of a normal bet, but I'm upping the limits this year with the Booster in play. TAR23 Teams Remaining Ally/Ashley Jason/Amy Leo/Jamal Nicky/Kim Tim/Danny Tim/Marie Travis/Nicole Good luck everyone! A 2003 IceCat original

LAST EDITED ON 10-31-13 AT 03:05 AM (EST) Jims,
Since the Forum's little red flag has become less a signal and more an annoyance, I thought that it might be better to post my question than to send a private message: I had 32 points going into last week's wager. I bet all 32 on Tim and Marie - with a 1.4 Boost. So shouldn't my score now be 109 (32 x 3.4) rather than 92? Not that it really matters to me...

33 on Nicole/Travis 1x Booster15 on Tim/Danny as the PAT. BTW, that apartment building is weird. And I assume they must have an awesome mass transit system because there's not enough room for parking. You can look up the apartment building on Google Maps by navigating to Obrońców Wybrzeża, Gdańsk, Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland
