Communication is Key

That was definitely one of those episodes that proved how important communication is for success on The Amazing Race. And I'm not really blaming Mark & Mallory for their communication breakdown over the bag... They didn't know each other very well, so they're just inherently going to be at a disadvantage at that department. It was a real bummer too, because Mallory and Mark were both in likeable teams before, so it wasn't fun seeing them have such a bad time.

Week 1 Results
1st place - Brendon/Rachel (2x)
2nd place - Marge/Luke (1.7x)
3rd place - Caroline/Jennifer (1.4x)
4th place - Dave/Connor (1.2x)
5th place - Flight Time/Big Easy (1.1x)
6th place - Jet/Cord (.9x)
7th place - Leo/Jamal (.8x)
8th place - Jessica/John (.6x)
9th place - Joey/Meghan (.3x)
10th place - Mark/Mallory (0x)

Good Job, Brenchel

They're finally good for something. :p

Scores were, once again, really strong overall, with the lions share of the points being wagered on Brendan and Rachel. Jet/Cord caused a couple points to be lost, but nothing too major.

This week's Greatest Gainer Award goes to both IanQuentin and Ontheroadagain, who both climbed 7 ranks overall. Nicely done!

The Perfect Bet Award also goes to IanQuentin and Ontheroadagain, but they have to share this one with adricharlie too. All three of them doubled-up this week.

Still quite a dogfight at the top, but currently michiganlargefan sits at #1, by virtue of tie-breaker. Still lots of game left, though, so we'll see what happens!

New Players Still Welcome!

Throughout the next two weeks, the TAR Casino Game will be open to new entrants. Players who join this week will receive 10 points to start.)

For an entire list of rules, check out Week 1's thread.

Week 3 Payout Table
1st place - 2x
2nd place - 1.5x
3rd place - 1.2x
4th place - 1.1x
5th place - .9x
6th place - .8x
7th place - .7x
8th place - .6x
9th place - 0x

Max Individual Bet - 40 points

We're a couple weeks in, so may as well do one of those lop-sided payout tables. I never know how these affect game theory, if at all.

TAR24 Teams Remaining
Brendon/Rachel
Caroline/Jennifer
Dave/Connor
Flight Time/Big Easy
Jessica/John
Jet/Cord
Joey/Meghan
Leo/Jamal
Margie/Luke

Good luck!

This week is kind of a toss up. The tasks in the previews suggests this is a "physical leg" so I'll go.

40 points - Jet/Cord
39 points - Flight Time/Big Easy

Just a guess, though.
