My team came so close to getting the express pass. Can't believe they messed up on a simple clue reading! :doh:

I bet all those teams who read the clues wrong will be more careful from now on...

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

My odds are not as good as I hoped. I hope most of the travel will be by taxi this season.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Thank God.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

The Tim/Reebs connection is strong.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Yes, they are. That team surprised me. I thought they'd probably argue a lot and she would alienate people with an attitude. But so far so good with them. They're very strong physically.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Sorry Groucho & TimeAndTide, thanks for playing.

The bingo queens and the wrong shoe shine kit. :lol:

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Sorry guys, but they just made some bad moves. Funny thing is that even with the wrong bus, they still caught up--it was the wrong shoe shine kit that put them out.

I stupidly clicked into this thread on Monday even though I hadn't watched the episode. Fortunately I didn't recognize the eliminated DVD Talk players and thus didn't spoil the episode for myself. :)

Jason and Amy aren't awesome so far, but I could do worse than solidly middle of the pack.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Man, that was close. Whew.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Sorry lwhy? and Jules. Man, they took a good risk, but every single flight got delayed. Sigh.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Sorry lwhy? and Jules Winfield, thanks for playing.

One of the strategic points I've learned after years of watching this show is that you should always try to be on the same flight as at least one other team so that when delays happen, you won't be alone and you would still have a chance to beat the other team.

Still, the multiple delays encountered by Chester and Ephraim was just plain bad luck.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

I knew they were goners as soon as they took the flight with 2 connections. Well 9th place is better than the last place I took last year with the fire fighters and I still have the baseball wives who showed a little ingenuity with their ability to beat the other teams to get on the standby list first.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

I just thought I ought to give the thread a belated bump.

The double length leg means we didn't lose anybody this week, but I'm concerned that Exes just might become the 2nd team to be eliminated while holding an express pass. Could they be that stupid?

It was also nice to see Tim & Danny helping out the Ice Girls a little.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

I would love to see the Exes go home. They are the only team I hate more than my own team. Seriously, if I knew the Afghanimals would be inept misogynistic man-children I would've never picked them.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

So far I've been lucky with my pick :fc: and they seem like a nice couple.

Tim and Danny are really sweet guys, but I'm afraid that might hurt them in the end... looks like Reeby has met her match in Nicole.. it will be interesting to see how that plays out next week.

My favs (if I wasn't playing) are The Beards and Jason and Amy. But, of course, I REALLY want the ER docs to win. ;)


edit: Tim and Danny were very irritating tonight (10/27)... well one of them was.. the smaller guy who had to wear the dress in the roadblock.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Anyone know if it's on time tonight?

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Sorry JasonF and ruddiger718, thanks for playing. It sucks to be done in by a U-Turn.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Jason and Amy are looking like solid contenders. :up:

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Oh well. I was hoping for a T-Tow repeat, but after the first episode, it was pretty clear these guys were not the Season 9(?) hippies.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

sorry Navinabob, thanks for playing. Our guys were done in by an inability to sing.

... And neither could my other team, but the Ice girls are still racing!

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

Yeah, I had high hopes going in, but after I saw the first episode I knew they were in over their heads and it was just a matter of time.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

I was really sweating the fast-forward detour, but I'm glad Amy is a better singer than some of the other contestants. :clap:

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

I'd like to see a final three of Travis & Nicole, Jason & Amy and Timothy & Reebs (even though I can't stand the last couple). I think it would be an exciting finish that anyone could win, with plenty of drama from pink-hair.

But... GO Travis & Nicole! If they hadn't been my picks, I'd like to see Jason & Amy win because of likability, excellent gameplay and the way they treat others.

Re: The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game -- Fall 2013 Edition
 

I agree, leeta. Those three teams would make for a great final three battle.
