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."

LAST EDITED ON 07-23-04 AT 11:48 PM (EST)Fly Like An EagleWow. The airport really played a big factor in this week's race. After two good legs, Jim/Marsha finished last this week thanks to some bad luck/communication with the airline. Had they been quicker to the standby lines, they may have gotten one of the flights. Here's how the racers finished for Leg 3: Team Members (payout) 1. Colin/Christie (2x) 2. Charla/Mirna (1.75x) 3. Brandon/Nicole (1.5x) 4. Bob/Joyce (1.25x) 5. Kami/Karli (even) 6. Linda/Karen (.8x) 7. Chip/Kim (.6x) 8. Marshall/Lance (.4x) 9. Jim/Marsha (0x) Ca-Ching!...That's the sound of points in the bank. As a whole, we did extremely well this week. Colin/Christie (1st) and Brandon/Nicole (3rd) were this week's top picks. Many players picked these teams, and Charla/Mirna (2nd) was a popular pick as well.This week's high scorers were Neobie (+23), seahorse (+22), and MegaCanuck (+15). Way to go, guys! This week's Greatest Gainer Award goes to Rebel Crown, who jumped from #33 to #15 this week, with almost an All-In bet. This week's Perfect Bet Award goes to yensid and qwertypie, who nailed the Top 3 perfectly this week. LeaderboardPlayer Name - Points Total 1.

I was beginning to wonder if the house always wins, but you proved me wrong this week. Enjoy your points. The payout table measures the amount of points you get back for a particular bet. Each week, the table values will change, so adjust your betting accordingly. If your team does well, you gain more points. If they do poorly, you'll lose part (if all) of your bet. Week 4 Payout Table 1st place - 2x 2nd place - 1.3x 3rd place - 1.2x 4th place - 1.1x 5th place - Break even 6th place - .7 7th place - .4x 8th place - 0xMinimum Bet - 0 points Maximum Bet - 25 points Betting Rules 1. You may only bet points you have. I do not give out equity loans. Consult the leaderboard for your point total. 2. Each individual bet must be a whole number (integer). You may bet 0 pts all the way to 25 points. However, *don't* let that stop you from betting more than 25 points total. Even if you have bet 25 on one team, you may still bet on other teams. (bolded to accent this point, so it is clear) 3. Every third week, I will increase the maximum bet allowed by 5 points. 4. You can pick up to 5 teams maximum 5. You do not have to bet all your points. 6. All fractions of a point will be rounded up in your point total. I'm nice like that. If you don't want to risk any of your points or forget to enter, no points will be deducted. You just have a +0 week. If you don't make an entry for 3 weeks in a row (without telling me), I'll assume you've quit the game. WARNING: Editing your post after the show has begun airing will receive a 10 point penalty. That's EST, so all you West Coast peeps, make note. New Players Accepted!-This is the last week for new entries. So, if you want to play, this is your final call to get some free points. -For Leg 4, all new players start with 5 points. Remaining Racers for Leg 3 Bob/Joyce Brandon/Nicole Charla/Mirna Chip/Kim Colin/Christie Kami/Karli Linda/Karen Marshall/Lance Have fun this week! Go win some points! Extra AnnouncementI am going away tomorrow, and I won't be back til Sunday or so. Volsfan has graciously agreed to fill in for one week. Don't worry though. I am sending him next week's Payout Table and I will be double-checking his score calculation. I'm cutting-and-pasting part of this post, so the rules portion will stay the same. So don't you all worry. Just be on the lookout for volsfan's post next week. See you next week! New TAR5 Game - Place your bets!
