"Okay, TARSucks Team... We're REALLY gonna VOTE!!!"
Posted by sleeeve on 11-11-02 at 09:06 PM
I won't mention who did well in last week's vote thread (Hint: not me )... but in the week before last, 15 out of 61 voters (just under 25%) managed to identify Kathy and Michael as the team that was eliminated.

This week, we re-introduce rule #1b... the non-elimination rule. Feel free to use it if you believe that no team will be eliminated. One helpful source is the Early Show website... if they say that the next team from TAR will appear on the show Thursday morning, you may find it unlikely that the race will end in a non-elimination round.

Okay... now that we have the summary out of the way, review the rules, and then let us know who you think will be eliminated next!

1a) Post the name of the team that you think will be eliminated from the race as the subject line of your message. That means hilight and delete the area that says "RE: Okay, TARSucks Team... We're REALLY gonna VOTE!!!" and replace it with one of the following:

Aaron/Arianne (Lifelong Friends)
Andre/Damon (Cop and Fireman)
Derek/Drew (Identical Twins)
Flo/Zach (Friends)
John Vito/Jill (Dating)
Ken/Gerard (Brothers)
Teri/Ian (Married Parents)

1b) If you think that no team will be eliminated in this episode, put "No Team Will Be Eliminated" as the subject of your message.

2) Reply to this message only (That means click reply at the bottom of MY post, not at the bottom of some other vote or a vote tally).

3) This is not a discussion thread. Only posts containing votes should be posted... if you want to comment on something someone said, do it in another thread.

4) Make any other predictions (who will get the fast forward, who will finish first, etc) in the body of your message.

Good Luck!

Hopefully their time is through this week. I think Aaron and Arianne will use the fast forward and therefore probably stay (though only probably, look at Dennis and Andrew).

The teaser from the website foreshadows that things aren't going well for Guns n' Hoses. Maybe they just responded to a false-alarm and couldn't get back to quarters in time for roll-call!

It's gone long enough... I figure, despite Guns and Hoses being all over the previews, they'll just get shafted by being way far behind next episode. Nobody's going home this week.

you can only go so far being followers...you have to be able to think for yourselves to win this race...if these guys keep running behind the coattails of other racers than they have lost it.

Actress Emma Watson (``Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets''); the latest eliminated team from ``The Amazing Race 3.''

One helpful source is the Early Show website... if they say that the next team from TAR will appear on the show Thursday morning, you may find it unlikely that the race will end in a non-elimination round.

Hmmmm based on the above I think someone is going to be eliminated... and unfortunately its going to be. Flo/Zach (Friends) once again... please c'mon just die...

Andre/Damon (Cop and Fireman) will go for the ffwd.

I think there will be an elimination. I read somewhere on some other site that there will only be one non-elimination this season and it is the week of Thanksgiving.

These two have zero strategy other than to cling like leeches on to everyone who is smarter and faster than them. They have been a huge disappointment; I would have expected a cop and fireman to be much stronger in the race. It's time for them to go.

"Andre/Damon"
Posted by Bebo on 11-12-02 at 10:15 AM
Sjunkim, thanks for including the Early Show blurb - you're right, that's a good way to knock non-elimination round out of the running.

While I would love for it to be Ian/Teri, the traditional TAR editing rules tell us that the villains stay around a lot longer than we want them too.

Posted by Lilybet on 11-12-02 at 10:45 AM
During the last episode they said they had no idea where they were going! They were just going to tag along. Looks like their tagging along days are over.

In the absence of any other spoiler information for the current episode, I'm going with Insider on this one. Let's hope s/he's right.

Also, although not yet confirmed or credible, there are other spoilers out there that say Derek/Drew were seen in Singapore, and Flozak and Ian/Teri were seen in on a flight that would put them in the finals. That leaves Ken/Girard, Aaron/Ariane and JohnVito/Jill, other than Andre & Damon. K/G have been doing so well, I just don't see them falling behind enough to lose. A/A have been doing so poorly, I think they'll go for the FF this time. And well, I like JohnVito & Jill and just don't want to see them go yet. That leaves the lemmings, Andre & Damon.

"RE: Aaron/Arianne"
Posted by buckeyegirl on 11-12-02 at 11:15 AM
Because no one else has voted for them yet, and I hate for any team to be left out... and why get a vote right this far into the season?
(Keeping fingers crossed that it will really be Teri & Ian...)

Posted by oohchild on 11-12-02 at 11:17 AM
ooOo..ooo Sweet Child O Mine... Andre and Damon will probably go ooO Oh Oh.... Sweet child O mine

Why can't Ian and Teri just get boot out? Like any other episodes, they stayed in the race because some other teams make a "Boo Boo". And from the way it is edited, they probably get into the finals

Rumors from twop BBS that Guns and Hoses commented in the website and is jittery and defensive on their behavior in Morocco. My guess they probably break some local laws unwittingly, "get detained" and lost the game.


"Andre/Damon"
Posted by managerr on 11-12-02 at 11:45 AM
Least face time among the remaining teams. On TAR that's usually a pretty big indicator that they aren't going to make it to the endgame.
"Andre/Damon"
Posted by wendyp on 11-12-02 at 12:03 PM
Well, I think they would have had more of a story line being a cop and fireman. But there has not been any build up, so I think they will finish last.

I also think they are following K/G and are the team that gets left behind. K/G are nice, but are not going to risk their chances for them. Come on they LIKE the twins, but took the only taxi when the three teams were working together.

Posted by ShowMeTheWinner on 11-12-02 at 12:51 PM
I was intending to vote for them anyway and Amazing_Insider sealed the deal for me. I'm betting my Anti-Bootee on this one as well and I sure hope I won't get burnt.

I am relying on the spoiler information. In addition, they are the weakest team still playing and only lucked their way into second place last time by tagging along with stronger racers.

Posted by Loree on 11-12-02 at 02:06 PM
Oh they have been disappointing. I expected so much more of them. But they don't seem to even be trying. They are just going along with the flow. Can't they figure out anything themselves?

This is simple, if Aaron can't deal with a little physical challenge like breaking down in the car without sitting on the side of the road crying, then they have to go. HEY AS THEY THEMSELVES SAID THEY LIVE OUTSIDE OF THE BOX...BOY ARE THEY OUTSIDE OF THE BOX ....GOOD BYE GOOD BYE

I would have picked this team this week anyway... it just seems like it's time for them to go, and as I pointed out last week, there's no way that Teri and Ian do not make the final three!

But this week, it's a sure thing! Amazing_Insider (who had a spoiler the week that none of us predicted a TnT elimination) has come back to let us know of an additional spoiler-- Andre and Damon will be kidnapped, and will thus be eliminated.

So that's the scoop! Good bye Rescue 911. Thanks A_I.

Their time on the show so far has proven to me that they are one of the weakest teams going. The only reason they have survived this far is because of good luck/bad luck for the other teams.

I'm going with the majority on this one, but would have voted for them regardless.

Just because I have to be different. I'm not sure about the Andre/Damon spoiler. They may have that happen, but I don't think CBS would let that be the cause of their elimination.

I love the twins and hope they don't go out tonight, but the twin hunt is all but over, and the twins weren't shown for long last time around. I think their story arc is over and they'll be eliminated. Plus, I think they're one of the teams in the alliance that gets left behind.
