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.
As entertainment critic Roger
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."
Well, the Amazing Race 4 season has begun, and so has the game. Lots of different strategies were put into play last week, and our first leader of the season is Keae
, who pulled of an astounding 15 point week. Keae, do you have a special secret for these games? Hidden advance Canadian television feeds? You're very good, hehe. Bringing up second place was sittem, who pulled off an 8 point week. While these fortunate players scored very well for the week, most of the rest of us are baaack in negative or almost negative land. Femme and Yogi were the least fortunate, each netting a tough negative score thanks to Debra & Steve's exit. Here are the scores, with the number of picks already used for the season beside in brackets.....
15 - Keae <4> 8 - sittem <3> 6 - Survivorchick <4>, GeorgiaBelle <4>, Spidey <4> 5 - magic_star <3>, carencey <5> 4 - phishphan <4>, zahadumguy <5>, mikey <5> 3 - Survivor Maniac <4>, GTmike <3> 2 - sisyphus <5> 1 - ulalame <4>, smiles <4>, WHaTTHeMoLe <4>, TeamJoisey <4>, Rebel Crown <4>, FesterFan1 <5>, Neobie <4> (1) - echogirl <5> (2) - ejm92 <4>, Froggy446688 <4>, PlumBlossom <4> (5) - buffalohead <4> (9) - katem <3>, railfan <3>, Swami <3> (11) - managerr <3> (12) - drawde236 <3> (13) - MTW1961 <4> (14) - Femme <4>, Yogi <3> ----------------------------------------------------------------- This Week's Entry - Remember, pick the teams you think will finish in the bottom three this week, and remember that you are hit with a ten point penalty if you do not choose the correct eliminated team. Anyone can still enter, but PLEASE inform me that this is a new entry, to avoid confusion. If you begin the game this week, you will only be 5 penalized 5 points and 5 picks for the season, and you'll still be a contendor. Just as a hint to those who didn't do so well this week, you can also start a new re-entry and you'll start with a (-5) point penalty instead of a worse penalty than you may have right now. BUT, I have to be informed that it is a re-entry. Check with last week's rules just in case you are not for sure. As for last week's rules, I did make one amendment, and I scored last week's show accordingly. I do not think it hurt anyone, it was a benefit to everyone, and if it didn't benefit you this week it is sure to help out in the future. If you choose a team that is not in the bottom three, the penalty for choosing them is now only 2 points instead of the original 3. Brought to you by Kodak Film, here are the remaining teams....
Amanda & Chris Steve & Josh Millie & Chuck Monica & Sheree Dave & Steve Jon & Al Kelly & Jon Russell & Cindy Reichen & Chip David & Jeff Tian & Jaree ----------------------------------------------------------------- Leader Bonus - Last week, the bonus for leading went to any combination of SteveJosh/MillieChuck/AmandaChris. This week, we're doing the same thing. 4 points if you guess the correct 1st place leader, and 2 points if you guess the correct runner-up. A (-2) point penalty for incorrectly guessing the leader, and a (-1) penalty for incorrectly choosing second place. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Fast Forward Bonus - Last week's FF Bonus was Monica & Sheree. You can choose again this week, 5 points for guessing the correct winner of the Fast Forward (if one team does win it), but a (-3) point penalty for incorrectly choosing the FF Winner. ----------------------------------------------------------------- To look at the rules, check out http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID20/1143.shtml ----------------------------------------------------------------- Bonus Questions - Last week, the order of the bonus questions was TianJaree, None, TianJaree, Italy, and DavidJeff.

Whoops, sorry for not clarifying...yeah, I meant the first team to have both members shown driving a car, as in both of them actually driving it....there is a possibility that none will be shown, but most likely they'll both get driving time.
