Welcome To The DVDTalk Amazing Race Game No. 18, The Fall 2022 Edition!

This season features 12 teams and there will be no non-elimination legs! But will there be double length legs?



The season premiere is Wednesday, September 21.

The jist of the game: For an entry fee of just $5, everyone chooses a team to latch on to before the start of the season. If that team ends up winning race regardless of gimmicks, twists or pandemics, then YOU will win a $60 Amazon.com gift certificate. 100% of the entry fees will go to the prize fund.

We will be using the First-to-Post selection method for the draft. You may post 1 and only 1 team during the draft. This is strictly first-come-first-serve. Anybody posting a list will only have rights to the first team in the post. If they have already been taken, you will need to post again.

The drafts will be held Tuesday, September 20 at 9:00 PM Eastern (6 PM Pacific). The second draft (If needed by popular demand) will be held a half hour later at 9:30 Eastern, 6:30 Pacific. The DVDTalk timestamp of your post determines validity. If you are too early, you will need to post again.

This season's 12 teams:

Aastha and Nina
Abby and Will
Aubrey and David
Derek and Claire
Emily and Molly
Glenda and Lumumba
Luis and Michelle
Linton and Sharik
Marcus and Michael
Quinton and Mattie
Tim and Rex
Rich and Dom

Post now if you want to play and I will contact you with my PayPal information by Private Message.

Bopper Rule: If for whatever reason, an announced team that you drafted is replaced by a substitute team (or a single team member) during the show, you will get the substitute in place of your original pick. If multiple replacement teams enter the game at the same time, the owners of the original teams will share the replacement teams and split any prize money.

Spoilers: You may not post spoilers about future events in this game thread either with or without spoiler tags. Spoilers may only be posted in the season discussion thread where standard forum rules apply. A spoiler is defined as anything that was not revealed during each week’s episode or in the preview of the next episode. Once an episode airs in the Eastern time zone, you may post anything that occurred in that episode. Violation of this rule may result in disqualification, loss of prize money and suspension from the next season’s game. However, one mild spoiler may result in a warning, but only once per player. Repeat violations may result in a life time ban from future games. The game moderators and artists will discuss enforcement on a case by case basis.

Please do not edit or delete posts during the draft, if your pick has already been taken or you were too early, you will need to post again. Screen captures will be taken during the draft and violations of this rule will result in your pick being revoked and you will be given the last unclaimed team in the draft (AKA the Quack play).

All payments must be made via PayPal by 3 AM EDT Monday, September 19. If you haven't paid by then, your spot may be released to another player.

Please, please, please! Include your DVDTalk screen name along with "Amazing Race Game" in a comment with your PayPal payment! This is necessary so that I can match people up with their payments. Also, please use the Send money to a friend option as this will avoid seller fees.

If the contest doesn't sell out and an unclaimed team wins, the prize will go to whoever has the highest finisher.

Good Luck!

Also, if there's 12 teams, shouldn't there be a $60 prize instead of $55?

Ready to pay as soon as I hear from you.

Damfino

You got it, the game is now sold out.

I will start a list for a 2nd game now, but don't send any money until I believe we have enough interest.

rbrown498

Payment sent for last slot in first game. Woohoo!

lwhy?

Just bumping this thread to see if anyone is interested in a second draft. I'd love to have more than one team this season.

Damfino

That's looking doubtful right now, but I'll keep the possibility open for a few more days.

davidh777

I’d go for a second team as well if available.

TheGuy

I would do a 2nd round

Damfino

I don’t think everybody is going to want a 2nd pick, so I’m closing this season’s game now. At least we got 12 players to sell out one game.
