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."

"Amazing Race 3 Anti-Eliminee Contest" |
Welcome to the Amazing Race 3 Anti-Eliminee contest. Because it is hard to pick the correct team to be eliminated (the eliminee) each week. I decided to host (thanks again LC)this game where all you have to do is pick who will NOT be eliminated each week. The goal is to score as many “points” as you can each week, with the season ending Champion being the one that has never picked the team to be eliminated, and has built up the most points. The Rules: 1) You can pick as many, or as few, teams you want each week (minimum of 1). How many you decide to name each week is a function of your daring and strategy. Please remember that you are picking the people that will NOT be eliminated. 2) For each team you list that does NOT get eliminated, you gain one point. 3) Starting with the 4th show, if you put down a team that gets eliminated, you are eliminated from the game. For episodes 1-3, if you put down a team that gets eliminated:
---For episode one, you lose 10pts
---For episode two, you lose 8pts
---For episode three, 6points ---example, if you put the first eliminated team on your safe list for the first week, you lose 10pts. to whatever score you gained w/your safe people. In the 2nd episode, if you pick the eliminated team again then you lose 8pts. to the score you gained w/your safe people and that score is added to your week one score. 4) Non-elimination rounds will count as free points. Hopefully AR will mix up when elimination rounds happen, if not, then its Christmas in October and November!! 5) Fast Forward Option. You have the option of guessing which team you think will GET (Get=win the FF) the Fast Forward for that episode. If you get this correct, you win 5points, if you get it wrong, you lose 2. Just like the Fast Forward, it is optional. 6) You can enter the game anytime you want up until the beginning of episode 4. Once episode 4 has started, the game is closed to new players. The sooner you enter the game, the more points you can build up (the reward), but the better the chance you will make a lousy pick (the risk). 7) Everyone starts at 0 points when they enter. 8) If you don’t make a new weekly pick, it will stay the same as the prior week. 9) All picks must be made by Wednesday night, 9p.m. est. 10) Every now and then there may be a bonus question where there is a chance to gain more points.
What it boils down to is that you control how risky a game you want to play. You can pick a big number of teams each week and try to rack up a lot of points, but the more you select, the greater the chance you will be eliminated. Conversely, you can play it safe and select a small number of players, but you will fall behind in the standings. I think this flexibility adds a lot of strategy and excitement to our little game, and should keep things interesting.
**If there is a big push (before the season starts) to have this game like the Mole 2 format instead of Survivor format, then I will change it to the Mole format. I do think that AR is a little easier to spoil as opposed to the Mole 2 and we won't need this option. Of course with the Mole game, it took a week or two to feel out.** Good luck,
----GTmike P.S. thanks to LionChow for most of what is written above. LC you are the BEST!!!

Triple-A (AAron & Arianne)
A-Mon (Andre/Damon)
Philadelphia (Derek/Drew)
Ether (Eve/Heather)
Gherkin (Gerard/Ken)

Rules question: Do you get points if you put down "no fast forward" and no one goes for a fast forward? Do you lose points if you guess someone and no one goes for it, or is that a "push"?

26. "Picks (includes question about rules)..." |
LAST EDITED ON 10-02-02 AT 03:57 PM (EST)QUESTION REGARDING RULES:
For the fast forward guess, what happens if no one gets it? Do you still lose two points? If so, can you guess that no one will get it, and thereby gain 5 points? In other words, are FF points only available when the FF is actually used, or are they available (in positive and negative form) each episode? EDIT: Never mind... I just realized that you answered this question above. My Picks: Safe:
Aaron/Arianne (Lifelong Friends)
Andre/Damon (Cop and Fireman)
Dennis/Andrew (Father and Son)
Flo/Zach (Friends)
John Vito/Jill (Dating)
Ken/Gerard (Brothers)
Michael/Kathy (Long Distance Couple)
Tramel/Talicia (Brother and Sister) Fast Forward:
No Team will Claim FF. (If this is not an option, then I have no pick for this week.) 
You never know what might be up my sleeeve...
