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."

"TAR9 Casino Game - Wk8 Results \ Wk9 Entry" |
LAST EDITED ON 11-28-05 AT 06:03 PM (EST)Weavers vs. The World
That was a bad episode for the Weavers. They get lost, Yielded by the Bransens, and then finish last. Even though Phil tells them their not eliminated, they don't even seem to care. Did the other teams break their spirit or what? That Yield really seemed to effect the Weavers' racing. Speaking of the other teams, I gotta ask this. How many Godlewskis does it take to maneuver an RV? I had terrrible flashbacks to childhood vacations, watching them try to get it turned around. If I were producing TAR, I would've made them pull two campers behind them, and then make them sleep on the ground. Week Seven Results 1st place - Linz (2x) 2nd place - Bransen (1.3x) 3rd place - Godlewski (.7x) 4th place - Weaver (0x) Niiiiiiiiiice...
Overall, that was a much better week than last week's fiasco. A lot of people scored points due to the Linz family finally pulling out a big win. However, these points were usually negated by Weaver and Godlewski picks. No one picked the Bransen family at all this week. The Bonus Game, as usual, was a fiercely close game. In the end, alwaysintruble1 posted last, earning 20 points, while bighair and atzero06 finished 2nd and 3rd respectively, earning 10 and 5 points. Poor Weez was just seconds too late and missed the deadline. With so many people not picking the Bransens, it was tough to pick the Perfect Bet Award. Congratulations to atzero06 who picked only the Linz family, avoiding any losses for other teams. In addition, atzero06 also finished third in the Bonus Game, earning the PBA this week. The Greatest Gainer Award this week is Rhyn, who doubled up with a bet on the Linzes, bumping up 11 spots to #23. Nice job, you. It's still very competitive at the top. Neobie and esquire have moved into the #1 and #2 positions now, while fast-rising alwaysintruble1 is nipping at their heels. tvgeek401, Road Kill and redbaronii are also making an impact.

For the Payout Table this week, I'm going to leave it up to chance. I have 5 slips of paper here, each one reading either 2x, 1.5x, .5x, and 0x. I'm going to put them in a hat and draw the Payout Table order. Let's see what happens. Week Nine Payout Table 1st Place - 1.5x 2nd Place - .5x 3rd Place - 2x 4th Place - 0xMax Individual Bet - 35 points Number of Teams You Can Pick - 2 Wow. Just wow. That is a difficult payout table. I've never seen anything like it. We're coming down the home stretch, folks, and this week may make or break your season. Think very carefully about your picks. You want your teams to either finish 1st or 3rd this week, preferably 3rd. Good luck. Everybody Makes MisteaksHere's the Bonus Game. It's been eight weeks of TAR Casino Game already, and you're probably used to how I post these entries. Or are you? It's your job, if you choose to accept the challenge, to spot as many mistakes as you can in my Casino Entry this week. A few rules. 1. Grammar doesn't count, but spelling does. I don't need 25 people pointing out the flaws of my comma usage or run-on sentences. However, if you find any obvious spelling errors that I don't consider slang or stylish, count them. For example, the title "Niiiiice..." was spelled that way to draw out the word, not to count as a misspelling. 2. That said, you don't lose any points for guessing things wrong. So, when in doubt, add it to your list. 3. The only errors will be in this first, initial posts. Don't bother reading through the whole thread. 4. I want all these lists PMed to me, as usual. You can send more PMs than one if you find some more mistakes later, but don't spam me, people. 5. Remember, you're not only looking for spelling mistakes. Mistakes can also include errors in facts or Casino entry format. The person who finds the most accepted errors earns 20 points. Second place is 10 points. Amazing Race 8 Teams Remaining Linz Bransen Godlewski Weaver As always, good luck, everyone! With the payout table this week, you're going to need it!

edited to change my picks - I'm letting it all hang out here for reasons I won't state. This is a long shot - course I played the same one last week with the W's and they messed me up. I don't think they'll make the same mistake again. 2002 IceCat Originals, Inc. All rights reserved.
