Survivor Blows

That's why I watch The Amazing Race.

Okay, I watch Survivor too. I just thought it was funny how Survivor-y they got with some of the camera angles and stuff. It was very un-Amazing Race, you know? Like, all those slo-mo shots of Brendon/Rachel walking through the jungle. I think seeing Rachel in the jungle might be giving CBS some ideas...

(Oh gawd, can you imagine what a trainwreck that would be?)

I've never been a big Joey/Meghan guy, but they kind of won me over this year. They're still kind of insufferable YouTube people (a special brand of annoying outgoingness), but I gotta give them some props.

Week 3 Results
1st place - Dave/Connor (2x)
2nd place - Jet/Cord (1.5x)
3rd place - Leo/Jamal (1.2x)
4th place - Margie/Luke (1.1x)
5th place - Flight Time/Big Easy (.9x)
6th place - Caroline/Jennifer (.8x)
7th place - Jessica/John (.7x)
8th place - Brendon/Rachel (.6x)
9th place - Joey/Meghan (0x)

Missing Payout Points

So, when scoring the entries this week, I just now noticed that the payout table was missing .2x overall, making Week 3 slightly more difficult than usual for us. I guess if it's going to be a difficult leg for the racers, it may as well be for us. Sorry about that!

Despite this blunder, it was another solid week for scoring, although not like super-godlike like the first two weeks were. We kind of passed over Dave/Connor just a little bit in favor for Jet/Cord, but it was still a solid return nonetheless.

Also, a big welcome back to pepperz, who joined this week.

This week's Greatest Gainer Award goes to IanQuentin and louislam, who each climbed 4 ranks this week. Way to go!

And, once again, the Perfect Bet Award goes to IanQuentin, with a 1.9x payout for the week. You're gonna have to build a new case for all that hardware you're racking up! :p

michiganlargefan extends his (her?) lead with a perfect Dave/Connor/Cowboys wager, but it is still a very close race for the top spot. Anything can happen!

Goy my kids' picture with Flight Time wearing a Flight Time jersey, but he STILL refused to tell me who wins the race.

Anyway, let it ride, all 29 on the 'trotters.

Looking at the wagers above and mine, it does not look like there is much confidence in any team with a woman on it.
