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."

"Be The Amazing Racer 10 Signup Thread" |
LAST EDITED ON 09-12-06 AT 00:25 AM (EST)LAST EDITED ON 09-11-06 AT 03:49 PM (EST) LAST EDITED ON 09-11-06 AT 01:12 PM (EST) A new season of The Amazing Race is upon us. Time to play Max Headroom's favourite game. What is this “Be the Amazing Racer” game, you ask? Well, it's a role-playing game invented by the lovely and talented Angelfood some years ago. You sign up to “speak” as one of the contestants. Here is the current Survivor version. Here is the current Big Brother version. Be funny, be snarky. Bash ‘til your little heart’s content. No-one wins at the end, so there’s no competition. Do you think you know what was going on in a racer’s head when say, he raced to Phil wearing no shoes? Or when she broke down and cried in a fish market? Post it here! RULES 1. Casting: Sign up for a Character from the show to speak for/represent (reply below). One spot per character - first come basis. You may not be someone already taken or reserved. I try to be fair and work it out if there is a problem. 2. Please post at least once a week/episode, at least until your team is eliminated, after that - optional, you may still add comments. If you're going be out just send me a PM. If you miss 2 weeks without notice, I will have to reassign the character. 3. Sign the bottom of EVERY post you write with your Racer’s name or picture. Characters are difficult to keep track of. I will make up sig pics. 4. Speak as your character would speak, and speak for them. Share your character's inner thoughts about what happened in the episode, and what they think of the other Racers. Praise, tease or bash away. Be funny. 5. Have fun, this is not for SERIOUS bashing. Also, be careful not to post any big spoilers (like who is going). Don't bash other players personally. 6. If your character is eliminated, you get the privilege of writing your own "final remarks", so PLEASE DO. You are encouraged to continue to post from Sequesterville. 7. If your character wins, you win.... the coveted title of Be the Amazing Racer Winner and that is all. 8. Anyone not signed up as a character/Racer, is still invited to make comments about the characters or about posts, just please do not speak as a character - just be a cameraperson, taxi driver, menu item, etc. By all means PM me if you have a question or whatever. Feel free to suggest your own tag line. Here are the Racers: Dustin and Kandice Erwin and Godwin Kellie and Jamie Duke and Lauren Lyn and Karlyn David and Mary Rob and Kimberly Bilal and Sa'eed Peter and Sarah Tom and Terry Tyler and James Vipul and Arti Please also feel free to post as a Camera or Sound Person or a local. There will be generic sig pictures for any and all to use. And of course, I will be Phil. Editted again to add: EVERYONE is welcome to play. Newbies: Build up your post count! Oldbies: Snark snark snark! Lurkers: Join up with RTVW and make friends with a bunch of Internet weirdos! (Who are *not* axe-murderers. Honest.) ETF speeling And yet again to clarify which is Sa'eed and which is Bilal.

LAST EDITED ON 09-11-06 AT 07:48 PM (EST)I originally considered taking on the personna of Kellie & Jamie's pom-poms, but then thought that I was risking yet another brief BTR experience. So for this season, I'd like to be THE UBIQUITOUS NATIVE GREETER. My siggie-slogan (again sending the out plea to our marvelous siggie-creators!) will be "Was that something Culturally Significant or just a Blur Out the Window?" Thanks

LAST EDITED ON 09-12-06 AT 01:19 AM (EST)OK, here's the first batch of sigs: Cahaya: I think this is Godwin. The video didn't help clarify. The guy in the picture there says the Race will give him and his brother a chance to shine, but he wants to shine a little brighter. I thought that suited you quite well. zipperhead: Sa'eed isn't as chatty as Bilal. In fact, Bilal went on for quite a quite a while in the CBS video and Sa'eed just sat there, completely expressionless. Like a stone. However, Bilal said he's a bit afraid of heights, so he'd need bit of help if they have to jump off things. Molaholic: A bunch of people in native costume. Sahara: I like these two. They're the kind of people you could have over for coffee and not worry that they were noticing every speck of dust. Lyn wasn't sure how to explain to her young children where she was going. Max Headroom: I like these two as well. They speak 4 languages between them, so that should come in handy. dragonflies: In their video, Rob would hesitate a bit when talking and then she'd talk over top of him until he stopped and just let her talk. I found that amusing, since she made a point of telling us how teams that don't respect each other don't win. bystander: She was the first one to say it, so she gets the classic dippy girl team statement: tvgeek! Please do feel free to choose a character. I know you've got the snark. I hesitate to assign you a character, though. For those who don't want to make a commitment, here are a couple sigs that anyone can use: (Tutorial: To use a sig pic, click "Reply with Quote" and then copy-paste the URL {begins with http} into your User profile or just into your message.) Camera Person: Sound Person: I see Rolly has already showed up. *sigh*

Denalio This couple seems like fun, actually. What is this with the lying to the kids? They told their brood they were going on Survivor. Lasann The video didn't give much to go on. She was nice and normal and kind of quiet. Here's hoping more personality turns up over the course of the Race. tvgeek401 Yay! You'll be great. Peetah Welcome! Did you watch Tom and Jerry Terry's video? Tom just went on and on about the "loser dance", didn't he? How many times do you think he said "loser"? CwazyWabbit Good choice for a tag line. Nice to see you again. mikey Again, not much to go on, really. popeave Welcome to the game! Thanks for joining us. Hope you don't mind, I added some German. This means what you requested. *****

I use the Windows Character Map. I get to it on my computer by clicking Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and Character Map. I suppose it's probably in the same place on most Windows computers. It brings up all kinds of characters, like things with umlauts, accents, hats, etc. You can even get fun little symbols like ۞. There's probably some easier way to do it, but I don't know how.

LAST EDITED ON 09-15-06 AT 03:39 PM (EST)Would you believe I didn't know that character map thing was there? I used a Mac at work for years, so when we got this PC, it took a bit of getting used to. It was so easy just to press apple / e and get é. Now I have to do the alt codes and I can never remember so I have to guess. You make sure that Num Lock is on, then hold down the alt key while typing with the numeric keypad. For example: alt + 0233 = é alt + 0234 = ê alt + 0225 = á alt + 0224 = à Wheel of Tribe

Thanks, Seana,I echo your thoughts exactly about Tom. I wasn't at a "loser dance", but apparently, I found the only loser there. Still, he's my moron, to quote another quick exiting team ;) I just hope he doesn't go on blathering on about everything, because I am a patient listener, but...I can barely stand him!

LAST EDITED ON 09-13-06 AT 09:42 AM (EST)I've been so busy getting myself set up in Survivor, that I forgot all about TAR (my bad). So, are any contestants left? If not, can I be the Stewardess? or to be more PC "Flight Attendant" (though I prefer Stewardess) Actually, I'll be "Kiki" the official TAR Stewardess . . . Fly the "Friendlier" Skies or "Coffee, Tea or Me?" or "That's Just Turbulence" or something like that -- whatever fits and here's a couple possible pics for the siggie Thanks, Seana and sorry I'm so late.

Please do post as random people! Here is your dippy blond(e): Couch Tater Having viewed their video again, Vipul might have said "foreign" languages and not "four". Four sounded on the low side. She said they'd been together 9 years. But oops! It's only 7. ***** Still available are: Kellie Jamie Karlyn David Sarah Tom Tyler James Really, no-one wants the boy models who became friends in rehab? Or the other dippy girl team?

Anyway, here's your sig: They don't actually sound much like Eric and Jeremy, but when he said this, it sounded so silly I had to use it. And that's not a lame question at all! At the bottom of this comment box, you'll find a few links: Edit, Reply, Reply with Quote. To get the URL, click "Reply with Quote" and find the string that starts with "http" and ends with ".jpg" Copy and paste that into your comment. Alternately, you can copy and paste it into your User Profile in the Signature section. That way you don't have to find the URL every single time. Some people keep a Word file with their sig pic addresses for convenience. The Preview button is your friend. If the preview button fails you, the Edit link is your other friend.
