"STUPID CBS Camera Tricks"
WOW... what a close battle between Ian and his slave and TnT.

The way CBS showed it, they were neck and neck, trying to get to the pitstop just minutes apart.... except...


It is quite clear that Tramel was doing a night dive, while Ian's was done during the day.

Ian was driving right at dusk, you could still see a dark blue sky,

by the Time Tramel was done it was pitch black out.

I would guess TnT was at least 2 hours behind Ian and Slave, not just 10 minutes.

DAMN CBS

This is the second week they have done this. Remember last week when it was a "race" b/t the twins and the soccer moms. Twins strolled in and soccer moms were sprinting. Total editing.

It's been done throughout all three seasons, there have proboably only been one or two times where there was a real race, the finale of TAR2 is one of the only times where there was a real race.

Not true. The twins and the soccer moms came in around 5-10 minutes of each other. Us and Teri/Ian... ok, it was a little more time. We would have been fine had we not missed the ferry due to something I can't talk about (*coughproductionerrorcough*).

Well El, you got your wish. We're off the tube.

care to *cough cough elaborate*. Maybe let us read b/t the lines of a statement you make? Was the camera crew slow or did they run out of tape and have to change it out.

I am curious, is there something in the contract that says that if the production crew screws something up that it is basically "too bad?"

Sorry about the loss Tramel.

Eh, this sounds like a load of crap, the bottom line is that you and your sis couldn't keep your butts on the jet ski! For someone who claimed to be an "expert" on the jet ski, your sis sure didn't know what the heck she was doing.
So, w/ these *cough cough* errors, what does this mean? I read that you guys didn't have a clue and that your ski blew up twice. Is this true? And, was it really necessary to tell the world you took a piss??!!! I can't blame you, I probably would have done the same too after all that bad luck, how much worse could it get?
Another comment, I read that your sis might be losing her job because of this whole show from all the days she missed, is this true?

You guys had a great attempt and I must say you are a cutey too, now I'm stuck watching the twins, thanks! lol

Was sis an expert on the jetski? Obviously not. Then again, I don't ever remember her saying she was, just that she's been on one before. And if you look, we fell three times and they were out of order on the show. Someone said you were a true insider, and if you were, you would know the deal with the waverunners AND the clue. Big problems there.

Either way, sis ain't losing her job. And I'm glad you think I'm a cutie (smile). Didn't think anyone would even notice me with the twins and 911 there and all.

And as far as if it's really me, think about this. Why would I impersonate someone people probably wouldn't remember? Wouldn't it make more sense to impersonate a twin? Ah well, if you don't believe, that's fine. I am Tramel though (smile).

Oh, and El, whatcha got against us? I don't mind being hated, I just wonder why.

Tramel-

I just didn't think some of the things you said in Episode 1 were funny, and I thought that if you were gonna be in the race for the long haul, you wouldn't be so thrilled on finishing 10th!


However you seem to be a great guy, and like I said, if I ever met you in person, would never hold anything against you.

As for my prior comments about Gary, IN. I used to live in Chicago, and we have to drive through Gary all the time to visit family in Ohio. The city SMELLED, and we all hated it. So once again, nothing personal.

First of all, when did I say I didn't believe you were really Tramel? I believe you so much that I was wanting information from you (uhh...smile? I guess... You like writing that huh?) Second of all, who said I was a true insider? Who's talking about me behind my back? Just playin, but who is? LOL Finally, I'm sorry, but I did notice the twins being mighty cute first, but then I saw you were from Indiana and seeing as how I went to Ball State and live quite close to Indiana, I had to start rooting for you and your sis. Then, I soon realized you were a cutie! But, you did have a lot of competition w/ the twins and cop/firefighter, way to keep up our end out here in the midwest! So, now that your 15 min. of fame is ending, what are you up to now? Always wondered what one hit wonders did after their record sales stopped (not saying you're a one hit wonder...'smile')

7. "RE: STUPID CBS Camera Tricks"
dont they usually give time "credits" when theres a production snag? im not asking this because i doubt you, it just seems that you guys were due some extra time (Ian wiping out your clue, the replacement of your wave runner, etc). I dont know if that would have caught you guys up or not, because they dont show us the times.

Well, he sounded sincere. And he did point out a few things that were going to happen in the first episode.
Do we KNOW it's him? No.
But I believe it is.

I also believe that Andrew'sFriendCJ (or whatever that nickname) is really Andrew's friend. He tipped us that there would be a penalty assessed for the goat cart driving.

AmazingInsider certainly sounds like he has some inside track, but so far he has only predicted the elimination of TnT, which wasn't all that hard to guess. He said he knew they went to NYC for Friday's Early Show appearance. We'll see what he tells us this week.



These reality show contestants need a reality check!

None of us fell for it. And I really hate the phony pause Phil adds to build suspense. Suspense for whom? The audience? We see what happens within seconds. For the players? That is just cruel.

To Bump up my own post.

DId anyone else notice that Terri and Slave left the pitstop mere Minutes behind 911 and Dad/Son. They were much closer to 8th place than last, THANK YOU CBS!

LAST EDITED ON 10-17-02 AT 06:02 PM (EST)

Another stupid CBS Camera Trick. When the soccer mom's got Philiminated on the mat some shots showed one mom's microphone cord hanging out, in another shot the same mom's microphone cord was hidden. It seemed to me to be a totally staged Philimanation. And I don't ever remember any contestants ever running to the mat with microphone cords hanging out.

When JVJ arrived in cambridge it was 9.10 p.m. & when they completed the detour it was 9.50 p.m..They went to search for the bus & reach just a minute before (9.59 p.m.). Was the bus so near to the river, then did the legals eagles took a taxi for a journey which just 9 mins by walk. I can't expect them to be so genrous.Another point,when JVJ asked the locals many replied they don't know.How is this possible? I think JVJ arrived just after 10 pm.

Something tells me it ain't Team 911's. Another of the TAR crew's totally misleading editing. We'll know pretty soon.

The impression I got was that it was Heave who did the crashing. I seem to recall seeing them standing around outside of their vehicle acting like they are trying to figure out what to do next. Dunno if they're related or merely a case of editing to make it seem like they were "there" or just next in the preview.

Sylvia answered my question about the editing of the soccer mom philimination. She says "About the mike, being seen and then not. No, that was a one shot deal. If they had made me do it twice, I would cried my eyes out! They did one time "adjust" me. Oh the power of "editing" Sylvia"
