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."

"Hey there TARSucks... Time to VOTE!!!" |
Well... last week only 2 of our 63 voters managed to identify Heather and Eve as the team to be eliminated. I won't even comment on how pathetic that is. Let's see if we can do a little better this week! Walk (meaning do NOT hail a cab) to your voting booth, and let us know who will go next!1) Post the name of the team that you think will be eliminated from the race as the subject line of your message. That means hilight and delete the area that says "RE: Hey there TARSucks... Time to VOTE!!!" and replace it with one of the following: Aaron/Arianne (Lifelong Friends) Andre/Damon (Cop and Fireman) Derek/Drew (Identical Twins) Flo/Zach (Friends) John Vito/Jill (Dating) Ken/Gerard (Brothers) Michael/Kathy (Long Distance Couple) Teri/Ian (Married Parents) 2) Reply to this message only (That means click reply at the bottom of MY post, not at the bottom of some other vote or a vote tally). 3) This is not a discussion thread. Only posts containing votes should be posted... if you want to comment on something someone said, do it in another thread. 4) Make any other predictions (who will get the fast forward, who will finish first, etc) in the body of your message. Good Luck!
You never know what might be up my sleeeve...

There are 13 pitstops of which 4 are non-elimination points. I think we are due for a non-elimination week.

12. "Non-elimination round." |
LAST EDITED ON 10-29-02 AT 12:33 PM (EST)This is a tentative pick for now. Given the turmoil over the boot last week, with Heave getting the heave-ho based on error, and how close the teams are together, I think they'll get a break this time. Although I didn't watch AR1, it's my understanding that there was a non-elimination round in the 5th episode when 7 teams were remaining--since there's one more team in this season (12 vs. the original's 11), that would make it parallel to this episode in this season. Edited to add: as has been made clear in the thread discussing the possibility of a non-elimination round this episode, my assumption above is wrong--in both TAR1 and 2, the first non-elimination round occurred when there were 6 teams left, not 7 as I supposed. In any event, for now I am still voting for a non-elimination round, but much less sure now. Alt: Aaron/Arianne. They just made it by through luck this past episode, and since the previews suggest that they have car trouble this episode, I think they'll come in at the end of the pack again. If it is an elimination round, it's their turn to go.

32. "Vote Change: Aaron/Arianne" |
Everyone's persuasive evidence that elimination rounds do not occur this early in the game, combined with the Early Show saying the next team eliminated will appear on 10/31 has me convinced that it's an elimination round. So, I'm going with my alternate, Aaron/Arianne, as the team eliminated.

15. "Vote Totals So Far..." |
LAST EDITED ON 10-29-02 AT 07:30 PM (EST)Uh oh... one person who shall remain nameless has committed the cardinal sin of making a post to the vote thread that has nothing to do with voting. Please follow the rules. Since there was a rules violation, I'm tallying the votes so that no one will be concerned about the missing post. It is interesting to note that, aside from the fact that the Early Show has reserved a 15 minute block to chat with "the newest team eliminated from the Amazing Race", some people have decided to vote for a non-elimination episode. Their reasoning: "We have one more team, so we need one more non-elimination point." (Ummm.... last time I checked, with one more team, we should see one LESS non-elimination point, so if the first elimination was in E7 last season, this season it should be in E8). Anyway... it's still early, so cast your vote for the option that seems most logical to you... This is post #15 summarizing 13 votes, 1 tally, and 1 rules violation-- you know who you are! Aaron/Arianne (Friends) - 6 No Team Will Be Eliminated - 3 Andre/Damon (3rd Watch) - 1 Flo/Zach (Friends) - 1 Michael/Kathy (Couple) - 1 Teri/Ian (Parents) - 1 Under the Radar: Derek/Drew (Twins) John Vito/Jill (Dating) Ken/Gerard (Brothers)

I would be just as happy if A&A are eliminated. But I think being last they are most likely to go for the FF this time.

26. "Michael & Kathy" |
Although Kathy has not taken an active role in any of the roadblocks (well, she did paddle the kayak) nor has she done any of the detours, she seems to be getting more & more exhausted each episode. They seem to consistently lose what looks like it will be a good finish and falling lower each week. The taxi was not their fault, but losing their way to the Lisbon fortress was.If they are among those that have car trouble, I just don't think they will recover as fast as the other teams. The point against their demise is that we don't know who the hell they are. Kathy said a total of 22 words and Michael is just showing us he's way cool. Hope it's AA though.

About this time in TAR, you can usually tell who is the next to go--as teams begin to exit in order of their strength. Based on average finish, Andre/Damon are the weakest team left on the board, and I think they should be the odds on favorite to exit.

37. "Aaron/Arianne" |
Well, it looks like we can narrow this list down to four. The problem is that they were the four teams I was looking at this week anyway. Yes, it seems that stupidity isn't limited to Harvard law students, as 4--count 'em F-O-U-R--teams put unleaded gas into a diesel powered car. That's right, you can put Michael, Zach, Ian, and whoever filled the tank for A/A into the TAR Hall of Shame right alongside Heather and Eve (On second thought, Heather and Eve should get their own wing in this joint).By the time Spain's answer to AAA comes to save these buffoons, the other 4 teams will be snacking down on hummus at a Moroccan cafe. So who goes next given the choice of Type A/Type ZZZzzzz, screech/Screech, Airhead/AirheadAnne, and the Bunkers? I honestly believe that Ian must've sold his soul to the Devil, because he is the luckiest sack o' shite I've seen on this show. Screech X 2 seems too obvious with Flo's meltdown front and center this week. That leaves Airhead/AirheadAnne and Dr. Phil's Waiting Room as the candidates for this week's ouster. Basically, I flipped a coin...then I flipped it again because I forgot to assign Heads and Tails. It came up Heads, which clearly means that A/A will be saying their tearful farewell at about 9:58 EST. Fester

I voted for them last week and really think they go this week because they do not impress me as being that strong of a team nor do they have as deep of a relationship to get them out of messy situations.

Michael and Kathy is the choice by process of elimination.It will be down to the four airhead teams that put gas instead of diesel in their vehicles. Flo and Zach is too obvious (given Flo's meltdown). Teri and Ian & AA are too prominent in the previews. That leaves the losers for this week. No one takes the FF. (c) 2002 IceCat Originals, Inc.
