The Rules
1. Put the name of your choice for this week's bootee in the subject heading. This is really easy, just erase the bit where it says "Re: Tar14 Fans ..." and replace with your vote, i.e. "Mel and Mike." This makes it easier to tally votes quickly and accurately.
Nicknames are tougher to tally unless they're really obvious without actually reading your vote, so please save the nicknames for inside your post and only use their proper names in the subject header. (Please note that if there isn’t a team name in the subject heading, the vote may not be counted.)
2. Non elimination episodes. If you feel there will be a Non-Elimination Leg (NEL) put down "Non-Elimination -- Team name" in the subject header to tell us who you think will finish last. If you feel there will be a continuation of this leg (Superleg) put down "Superleg" in the subject header.
3. Reply only to this post! We like a nice straightforward vote thread around here, that's just how it is.
3b. Vote changes. However, if it just so happens that you want to change your vote for whatever reason, reply to your own vote post! Your new post heading should read for example "VOTE CHANGE: Christie and Jodi".
4. This is not a discussion thread, do not treat it as such! There are plenty of places on the forum to debate the merits of people's arguments. Feel free to explain the reasoning behind your vote, though.
5. Have fun!

And the clueless bus has left the station.
Alt: Kris/Amanda
They find their fanny pack in the village, but not in time to avoid Philimination.
They've gotten lucky so far, but their luck has involved other teams making worse mistakes, at some point they'll run out of luck.
And a hopeful so-long to Dandrew II: This Time, They're Female.
From the preview we see that the teams in trouble include: Brad and Victoria, who have missed the flight, Tammy and Victor, who are lost in the woods and fighting, Cara and Jaime, who are frustrated that their driver doesn't know where to go, and finally Amanda and Kris, who have misplaced their fanny pack...I immediately rule out Tammy and Victor, although I do think that Romber went from first to last in the All Star season...
Amanda and Kris: the loss of their passport and money can lead to your demise, but Amanda is keeping a cool head and I think they will overcome. We have seen many teams get stripped of their money, and some have lost passports as well...if both were fighting and panicking, I would write them off.
For me, it is one of the following teams:
Brad and Victoria: we have seen many teams not be eliminated when missing a flight, yet many have been...can they recover? They work well together, I'll say, yes, they will...
Cara and Jaime: Many times a bad driver can indeed lead to your demise...we have seen it over and over and over again...
No idea. So I will go for the shocking long shot.
I never get this right.
Brad and Victoria.
I used Flowerpower's line of thought from the previews, but I don't think Brad and Victoria are going to be able to catch up from a missed flight.
I'm going to disagree somewhat here -- it's a short flight to Romania, so I'm sure there will be another one in a short time to allow them to catch up. It's a whole different story if it's something like a missed flight from the U.S. to South America or going from Europe to one of the Asian sites.Not that it's a bad idea in the first place as Brad and Victoria certainly look like they could be on their way out.
Good call on the Brad and Victoria pick. I didn't think they'd be so far away when they missed their connection - it'd be tougher to find a backup flight plan when they're further away in Amsterdam.
They gotta learn to keep their stuff on their person.....
