Are you talking about that white tower looking thingy in the background? I think it might just be part of whatever location they are at...it looks to big to move around all the time!!

Yeah, it looks like scaffolding. Maybe this is in the police station?

Thanks for the time stamps, Chateau! So Eric/Danielle seems to be first at the detour now? That's a different take on the whole thing. I assumed at first that the Dustin/Kandice were doing the detour in the afternoon so Eric/Danielle were doing it at almost dusk, so...
just dance

I don't understand the question, and I won't respond to it.

Yeah, Chateau, with the best news I have read this week about this episode.

I really want them to win a damn leg.  Or 3.

Michael don't worry.  Looks like the first task of the day, and as we Eric & Danielle could easily lose a lead (they better not I will hunt you down (:;) like a dog, a dirty pirate dog  :rotf:), and Dustin & Kandice could just sail through the rest of the days events.


Seriously I would love for the BQ's do get 2cd place.

what about the partly cloudy parts?  :lol:

I don't think the pictures will quote.  I'm referring to Puddin's reply # 320 of this thread.  In particular the first picture.

Check the left side of the picture and note the scaffolding and the green & white umbrella.  Now look at the picture from:  http://www.mandy.com/home.cfm?c=vid307

The 2nd and 3rd pictures are from HK.  It appears TAR hired field shooting equipment for the old airport.  IF, the 2nd picture is TARAS then check out http://www.movcam.com/en-Gallery-1.htm and there are a few more HK pictures in the Movcam Gallery.  Maybe there's a shadow.  The camera man is wearing something around his neck that is on an orange strap that is in the HK pictures but not in the TAR picture.

So we know the van roll-over is on the 12th of Dec.

I would think this type of camera rental is quite expensive and they can't be kept around all day waiting for teams to show up.

IMO:  Danny's reaction in the "office" is when they find out what the FF is.  The female at the window in the "office" may not be a "local".  O/D are the only one's shown around "Kiss my Kids" looking for something (the "office" to find out what the FF is????)  O/D are the only ones shown at the roll-over.  The cameras needed in the car and on the scaffolding would not be cheap.  I think TAR paid a 1 time fee for a Fast Forward.

I have this FF stuck on the brain and can't shake it.  I know that D/O and D/K were seen in HK (together?).  I have a 50/50 chance I'm right.  Although I feel for sure I'm wrong.

I also think that D/K at the school is because they are lost.  D/K are known to have direction problems in the past.

Hello Mr. Cheng, I don't have an answer to your question and can't speak for the administrators here but I'm sure that if you disapprove of the use of your likeness the moderator or administrator will remove it. Thanks for your offer to help us with the clues. The posters (detectives) at this website enjoy looking for clues about the race and get great satisfaction when their guesses turn out to be what actually takes place. If you participated in putting this episode together let me thank you and I'm sure that we are going to enjoy the work you did for The Amazing Race.

Thank You.

Thought I would do a quick recap of what we do and don't know--please feel free to chime in here!
...

Hi, could you change Shau Kei Wan to Cheung Sha Wan. Cheung Sha Wan  is in Kowloon
I have posted a updated version of location map some pages before

No leads on the umbrella, just advertising for a local pharmacy chain...

The lack of buildings in the background makes me think it's either on the coast or on a rooftop. (Come on, there are high-rises EVERYWHERE in Hong Kong.) To my knowledge, rooftops in Hong Kong make use mostly of parapets, not railings or fences. So... on the harbour somewhere? Kai Tak?

Plus... After rotating, shearing and flipping, 'fook' for 'fortune'?


Watson is also a brand of "purified water". That is the advertising in the umbrella, not the pharmacy (although both owned by "Lee Ka Shang").
Nothing specially.

Assumptions:

Looks like teams must have a 24 hour pit stop, otherwise Chateau's times don't work.

If the DETOUR consists of (1) Climb or (2) Roll then we have
         (1) Climbers:  E/D 7:45AM to 8:15AM
                             D/K 8:30AM to 9:30AM
                             C/M 10:00ish

and (2)  Rollers:        D/O 11:35AM to 12:07PM

So it looks like E/D  may have an early 4 hour lead over D/O

The ROADBLOCK is kick the damn door down!

                       Kandice is holding a Chinese thing a ma bob  together with a red Roadbllock clue in her left hand
                       Charla has only a flashlight, so that looks like Kandice at that point is ahead of Charla
                       There is a quick scene of D/O in a hallway; O has a red clue in hand taps Danny with it, so Danny must be doing the Roadblock.

                        No sign of E/D

Perhaps ROADBLOCK has something to do with collecting Chinese sympbols, and then putting them together which would spell out where the PIT STOP IS.

Its a rainy Sunday morning so this is probably all wet stuff.

Well it depends, you can have rain and sun at the same time, you don't have to have full cloud cover (as longas teh clouds part for where the sun is positioned it wouldn't event shadows and you could still have rain literally falling down on you)..

Or it could be running off and on all day with partial cloud cover.

LOL, oh yeah my bad...sorry I just woke up.

in one of the pictures from the web promo we see C/M and E/D standing beside a ticket agent, and I'm pretty sure we see D/K bag. Since D/O are so far behind at the detour maybe D/O miss the flight, and the three other teams get on?

Either way...we will know tonight :jumpy:

Damn G-Man all this time I thought the climb was the roadblock.  I can be an idiot, sometimes.

I was wondering why people thought Oswald & Danny were so late, I thought they did a detour and thus we have no idea when they started teh roadblock).  That really ruins my timeline for the teams.
