mia rules18 409 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Daytime Soap Guest Star" 04-02-07, 09:20 AM (EST) 1. "RE: 2 hours" I was really surprised that they had the intersection, and a fast forward combined with a team that had a 30 minute penalty...was it too much? I felt like the Guidos didn't even have a chance. Although I am sure that if the other set of teams took longer to eat the sausages or if a team chose the bagel task and one task was quicker than the other there could have been more wiggle room with the 30 minute penalty.   Top

jbug 17146 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-02-07, 09:29 AM (EST) 2. "RE: 2 hours" I was surprised too about the FF. Why put one in where the leading teams already have a 4 hour lead (time between buses)? The leading team will almost always take the FF. So now instead of about 4 hours ahead, they are the 4 hours PLUS the time it took for the Detour and RB. Course the tail ends teams can still catch up in the next leg with a little more bunching. Also, I was surprised that the FF was used WITH the intersection & that 2 teams were allowed to do the FF. Wonder why they didn't release them from the intersection - working together - as soon as they received their clue when they finished it? Handcrafted by RollDdice   Top

aquariaqueen 2616 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Survivor-themed Cruise Spokesperson" 04-02-07, 10:05 AM (EST) 3. "RE: 2 hours" But if the FF and Intersections are pre-arranged, how would they be able to calculate that there would be teams almost a day behind. Last season, weren't KY up for elimination, they did the fire task FF and came in first.   Top

dabo 26942 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-02-07, 10:20 AM (EST) 4. "RE: 2 hours" Yeah, but last time the intersection fastforward was eating cowlips and the two teams who did it got beat to the pitstop.   Top

"RE: 2 hours" All of the above is just more proof that TAR is not rigged or plays favorites with some teams. TAR has everything scouted out and pre-arranged, and the results the players get are from their own actions.   Top

Ripley 196 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Blistex Spokesperson" 04-08-07, 07:24 AM (EST) 11. "RE: 2 hours" If that were true Rob & Amber would still be playing.   Top

ARnutz 13937 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-08-07, 07:51 AM (EST) 12. "RE: 2 hours" It was by Rob's own action that he made a spelling mistake with Philippines and insisted they stay to complete the Magellan detour task instead of switching right away.   Top

Cyndimaus 3117 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-02-07, 11:22 AM (EST) 5. "RE: 2 hours" The teams that did the detour were released from working together as soon as they received their clue. I would assume it was the same with the FF teams even though we didn't hear it read to us. I would guess they proceeded together out of choice. And I enjoyed seeing them happily working together and walking to the mat side-by-side. sig courtesy of Cygnus   Top

Ripley 196 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Blistex Spokesperson" 04-02-07, 12:13 PM (EST) 6. "RE: 2 hours" did Team Guido have a chance at the FF?That's the only way they could of been saved.   Top

Cyndimaus 3117 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-02-07, 12:20 PM (EST) 7. "RE: 2 hours" The other teams had already finished it before the Guidos even got to the clue box. Remember there was about a four hour difference....Dustin and Kandice had to wait a long time for someone to arrive. sig courtesy of Cygnus   Top

Earl Colby Pottinger 2597 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Survivor-themed Cruise Spokesperson" 04-08-07, 00:34 AM (EST) 9. "RE: 2 hours" That is partly D&K choice, they could had refuse C&M and waited for the next team to arrive. (Did the rest all arrive at the same time? I can't remember), this would had leveled the playing field and with the fast-forward option would have give the Guidos a real chance if teamed with the BQs.   Top
