thefactor 2 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "American Cancer Society Spokesperson" 04-09-07, 10:30 AM (EST) "Cheaters!!!!" Can someone please explain to me how Charla & Mirna were able to cheat and get away with it? On the April 8th episode the Detour specifically read, by foot, yet they took a taxi not only to the cookie challenge but when they decide to switch, to the art place… Yes.. Eric and Danielle cheated too. Everyone else walked as they were instructed… Help!!! I'm confused...   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

dabo 25344 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-09-07, 10:31 AM (EST) 1. "RE: Cheaters!!!!" They should get a time penalty before starting the next leg, what usually happens with things like this.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

popeave 433 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Daytime Soap Guest Star" 04-09-07, 10:37 AM (EST) 2. "RE: Cheaters!!!!" Welcome to the boards, thefactor! The thing that really makes this confusing is that sometimes they assess a penalty when the teams arrive at the pit stop, and other times they have assessed the penalty when they leave on the next leg. It's much more noticeable when they get the penalty on arrival.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Max Headroom 10028 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-09-07, 12:25 PM (EST) 3. "RE: Cheaters!!!!" In this case a penalty wouldn't have affected the overall outcome of the leg since Uchenna and Joyce were so far behind everyone else. But there may be changes to departure times in the next episode-- we'll see.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

michel 10812 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-09-07, 01:50 PM (EST) 5. "RE: Cheaters!!!!" I remember once a penalty was simply edited out because it didn't change the outcome. The distance to walk was 1/2 mile so a 30 minute penalty at most would have been given. Since it looked like they were more than 30 minutes ahead of E/D, the editors could've cut it out.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

PagongRatEater 12973 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-09-07, 05:18 PM (EST) 7. "RE: Cheaters!!!!" They should still get the penalty as a 30 minute penalty could make a difference in the next leg and could have moved O/D up a spot.

udg 3038 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-09-07, 02:54 PM (EST) 6. "Finishline" I went to the TAR website to see if maybe it was mentioned there in one of the extra videos. The videos won't play for me, but when I got to the website, the online show "The Finishline" was airing, and someone had just called in and was asking about the failure of some teams to walk to the Detour. Uchenna & Joyce didn't know anything about it. That's not necessarily significant, because they were out of the race at that point, but I thought it was interesting that other people did notice.

"RE: Cheaters!!!!" i noticed this right away and in fact tivod back to check the clue. it may not have made a difference overall but it would still affect start time and if it was for first place might have affected the prize. i think they should be consistent and assess penalties during the leg when the infraction happens. imo   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Charla/Mirna and Eric/Danielle are above the rules... but using the yield is something that only the most heinous, scummy bitches would stoop to... don't you get it?   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

zacz 26 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Beauty Pageant Celebrity Judge" 04-15-07, 09:01 PM (EST) 11. "RE: Cheaters!!!!" I'd say that Mirna/Charla probably did get a penalty but it looked like they were more than 1/2 hour infront anyway so they probably just didn't show it. It is apparantly VERY common and I've heard that there is usually at least one penalty given each episode. They only show them however when they effect the outcome.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Cathy the Canadian 599 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 04-16-07, 07:50 AM (EST) 12. "AGAIN THIS EPISODE" Mirna and Shmirna didn't take the right ferry in Hong Kong, and in fact drove right into the island they were meant to take a ferry too. Again, no penalty visable. WTF?   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

dragonflies 8051 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-16-07, 08:08 AM (EST) 13. "RE: AGAIN THIS EPISODE" They took the ferry back to Kowloon and then back again to the Island. I would say that was quite a "penalty"   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

vince3 17341 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-16-07, 09:32 AM (EST) 14. "RE: AGAIN THIS EPISODE" Yes. If they had realized that they went straight to the Island and went to the Roadblock, then a lack of penalty would be cause for concern/fixing questions. Because they ended up taking a round trip ferry, and it definitely erased any advantage the accidental direct drive took, any penalty would have been insult to injury.

Cathy the Canadian 599 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 04-16-07, 04:09 PM (EST) 15. "RE: AGAIN THIS EPISODE" That it didn't work out to their advantage should be irrelovant. Bottom line is, they didn't follow the instructions on the clue. When they got back to the island, they should still have had to go back to the mainland, and find the right ferry that the clue told them to take.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

HistoryDetective 9516 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-16-07, 04:20 PM (EST) 16. "RE: AGAIN THIS EPISODE" They did follow the directions. When they took the return trip to the Island on the ferry they did indeed "take the ferry to the Island." The instructions did not say where they had to pick up the ferry, only that they had to arrive on the Island via the ferry, which they did, eventually, after their round trip.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Cathy the Canadian 599 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 04-17-07, 04:06 PM (EST) 21. "RE: AGAIN THIS EPISODE" You might be right. I watched it again on Monday, and the clue said to take the "Star Ferry", but I don't think it specified which Star Ferry to take. So, as long as the one they were on was a Star Ferry, I guess it's kosher.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

coolflowerpowerman 456 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Daytime Soap Guest Star" 04-16-07, 07:00 PM (EST) 17. "RE: AGAIN THIS EPISODE" It was their own damn fault... if Mirna used prepositions and formed complete sentences like normal people instead of shrilling "Star Ferry, Hong Kong Island!", they wouldn't have had the ride through the tunnel. Their cabbie did what any other cabbie would do with such directions, and took them to the ferry terminal on Hong Kong Island.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
