Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Spring 2012 Edition

There go the Jersey guys. They made it much farther than I thought they would. And had they not chosen to fight for the FF, they'd have likely easily placed this round. Just a bad decision.

(Refresh to see the latest.)


Down to the final six! That means half of us remaining will make it to the final show.

chowderhead and davidh777, the odds are increasingly in your favor!

Sorry, 1Why? and sauce07, thanks for playing. I really underestimated the Guidos. The only reason they're gone was getting beat at the Fast Forward.

I'd feel better about it if my teams weren't the ones continually escaping by the skin of their teeth, but heck, it's the final six and who knows what could happen!

I'm in the same boat.

Spoiler for those who don't watch the "next week on" comercials:
Spoiler:

What's worse is apparently our two teams get into it next episode... I wouldn't be surprised if my team just falls apart after it. Rachel does not come across as being particularly stable emotionally and I doubt she has an easy time recovering from a fight. Vanessa, who comes across like she doing an impression of Santana from Glee, would likely just get more motivated to win.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Spring 2012 Edition

Couldn't believe the guidos lost the FF, I thought for sure they could beat the other team. This is the worst i've done in one of these AR pools, see you next season.

I am not liking the way they edit my two teams. The Border Agents are always talking about 1 slip up and being out which sounds like a shock 4 place finish. Vanessa and Ralph got a terrible edit last week/this week and are getting screen time due to their fighting with the Big Brother team. I think Dave and Rachel are favored at this point.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Spring 2012 Edition

After a week off, we were treated to a non-elimination round. A lucky break for Groucho and TimeandTide and of course, the "teachers".

No way they're teachers. Hey chowderhead, we should tell everyone we think they're lying and confront them and tell them they're lying, then when Phil asks us what we think about the contention on the race, we can say, "We're just trying to stay out of all that."

Kentucky might have won this leg if they hadn't forgotten showers use water!

Not holding out much hope for Vanessa and Ralph to finish ahead of anyone except possibly the "teachers" and Big Brother.

And with a double u-turn next ep., looks like they'll have as good a shot as the rest of advancing.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Spring 2012 Edition

Sorry Groucho & TimeandTide, thanks for playing. It did look to me as if the episode was edited to make it look closer than it really was, but I don't think the double U-Turn was enough for the "teachers" to catch up.

Wheeeew! Thought Ralph and Vanessa were in serious jeopardy till the speed bump, which I'd forgotten about. That would have been a bummer if I'd lost to a flat tire and inability to read signage.

Bummer, TimandTilde, but we made it pretty far. Now I'm voting for Team Justified!

And same here. Although I'll also be fine with a Vanessa win because...

No satisfaction in this one somehow. Perhaps it's because they looked so beaten down. It seems like an uphill battle for them to overcome a speed bump next round.

Sorry Patman & davidh777, but Mark & Bopper were obviously so far behind that not even the fast forward could help.

Tell me about it! The only reason I have Brenchel is because the game didn't sell out. The money will still spend the same, so let's get there Navinabob!

By this time next week we will have our winners!
