PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"TAR15 Casino Game - Wk8 Results / Wk9 Entry" |
LAST EDITED ON 11-18-09 AT 10:21 PM (EST)Bog Volleyball?It just doesn't have the same ring to it as mud volleyball does. And, man, was that stuff deep. Flight Time & Big Easy could barely move in the stuff, let alone play volleyball in it. Still, the task wasn't too bad, and everyone did pretty well over. Because of it, Gary & Matt couldn't make up much time, and were eliminated. Week 8 Results 1st place - Meghan/Cheyne (2x) 2nd place - Sam/Dan (1.5x) 3rd place - FlightTime/BigEasy (1x) 4th place - Brian/Ericka (.5x) 5th place - Gary/Matt (0x) Funky.Mixed results in scoring this week. The PAT Bonus Game turned out to be a big game overall, as Flight Time & Big Easy weren't very popular picks. So, the players who did wager on them in the PAT game really got the benefit. Speaking of which, the Perfect Bet Award goes to dragonflies (5x) for making an All-In bonus wager that paid off! It was gutsy for sure, but that deserves some recognition. The Greatest Gainer Award goes to both taffnic and Snidget, who both climbed 9 ranks this week. Nice! Leaderboard 1. ARNutz - 736 2. taffnic - 522 3. Jims02 - 505 4. jbenz - 483 5. Weez - 444 6. Starshine - 364 7. mikey - 353 8. laureli - 338 9. louislam - 331 10. michel - 319 11. KwietOne - 313 12. Yogi - 303 13. MaxZ - 273 14. ohmyheck - 271 15. bbenzenberg - 258 16. FFantasyFX - 251 17.

Deshawnator22 - 20 36. esquire - 18 37. dragonflies - 10 38. Ontheroadagain - 8 Some big moves this week in the Top 10. ARNutz, with a flawless bet, was able to overtake jbenz and take a nice lead in the game, while taffnic, jumped over the whole group to move to #2. It should be very interesting to see what happens! This week's Pitboss of the Week is mikey, whose bonus guess was only 1 minute off of the correct time. mikey has chosen the following: Week 9 Payout Table 1st - 2x 2nd - 1.8x 3rd - .2x 4th - nuthin' (or 0x for purists)Max Individual Bet - 180 points Bonus Pick - Time spread between Meghan/Cheyne & Brian/Ericka Just as a heads-up, regarding the Pitboss Mini-Game. The final week always features a 2x/1x/0x payout table with the "million" bonus game, so there won't be a guest pitboss for the final week. You can keep making your guesses this week, of course, but once we get down to the Final Three teams, no more guest pitboss. I like having the final week be consistent every season, so that players will know what they're building for and won't get surprised by some silly twist that makes their strategy pointless. I'm looking at you, Survivor, and your Final2/Final3 shenanigans. mikey has selected the following bonus game. Bonus Game - Confessions of a Mid-Season TAR TeamThis week's bonus game is simple. You can wager on which team you think will have the most confessionals in the next episode. You may only pick one team, though. For the sake of simplicity, a "confessional" means that the team is talking about the race from a pitstop in an interview environment. If the team is just narrating what they're doing via voiceover (like "the mud volleyball was so tough!") it counts as a confessional, even they don't show the team. And an individual confessional goes on for however long they keep talking about a subject, even if the camera moves back and forth between scenes. Just remember, if the team keeps talking, it's still the same confessional. Take a break, you guys. Confessional Payout Table Correct Answer - 4x Incorrect Answer - 0xMaximum Individual Bet - 60 points If two teams finish with the most confessionals, then correct answers will get 2x each. If 3 teams tie, then 1.3x each. If all four tie, then the game is a wash and everyone gets their points back. TAR15 Teams Remaining Brian/Ericka FlightTime/BigEasy Meghan/Cheyne Sam/Dan Good luck everyone! Remember to make a Time Bonus pick too if you want to be Guest Pitboss! I am destined to be in 3rd place, I guess. Ah well, I'll take it.

1. "Payout Table Construction" |
This post is a guide for the person who wins the Bonus Game this week. Think of it as a weekly reference guide. The rules will change throughout the season as the game gets a little looser.After the new episode airs, I'll post the correct answer in this thread, identify the winner, and send a private message to that individual. The winner has until the following Tuesday night (midnight) to contact me with their Payout Table for the following week. They can either post it in this thread or send me a private message if they want to be secretive. If the winner doesn't contact me with their Payout Table by Tuesday night, I will create the next Payout Table instead. Payout Table Rules(These may change throughout the season when we get farther into the game.) 1. Your Table must have a ranking for all the potential rankings of the teams. Use the format that I use. 1st place - 2nd place - 3rd place - 4th place - (This is assuming this week's episode is non-elimination. As mentioned in my earlier post, if next week is the finale leg, then there is no guest pitboss for the week as the finale is always 2x/1x/0x.) 2. No payout amount may exceed 2x and none may be less than 0x. 3. All payout multipliers must be rounded to the nearest tenth. No 1.3245345x payouts please. 4. The payouts must total the number of places there are. In this case, the multipliers must add to 4. Those are the only 4 rules this week. You can put the payouts however you want, just don't break any of these rules. A 2003 IceCat original
