"Pohcotohp Dab" is bad photochop spelled backwards. Which is clearly what that is.

Interesting. I'd love to see them go to Tibet, but the people look like they've been photoshopped into the picture to me. I doubt a racer would stop to pose like that.

Not only would they not pose like that, but probably wouldn't be wearing the same clothes they wore to the Reality awards...lol

Anyone speak German?? If this is what this is...

Me frantic: "Hans! Zwei blond idioten kommen! Betroffen sind mit Wurste. Danke!"
about 2 hours ago from TweetDeck


The hilarious translation I got from iGoogle was something about Hans, two blonde idiots have come, affected with sausages, thanks.
I highly doubt of this. It's very badly written and makes no grammatical sense. But the general idea is that of the blondes with the sausages. I smell unimportant.
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

Did some research on both of these tweets. From what I can tell, both sgBEAT & ghouls117 are located in Singapore. The first tweet confuses me a little because HTA is Chita, Russia.

Could the teams really be in Singapore? There's also the possibility that this could be TARAsia.

I don't think TAR Asia is filming since I just checked and Alan Wu is still posting on Twitter and it sounds like he is at home.

Tibet would be awesome as well as those villages in the foot of Mount Everest but it would be impossible since TAR cuts its budget  :groan:

TARA 4 is not yet filming.

I would adore Tibet, but Neobie was just entertaining us all. :hearts:

No sighting around here in Vancouver...but I still have faith in them coming here later on :)

Anyway, I was thinking if they are going to Africa, it's highly unlikely because of TAR's budget cut.(flights...hotels...)

I see a higher possibility of them going to Ocenia/Asia first, so might look into twits in other languages.

LOL Neobie :)
I could traslate that because I know mandrian:

在布达拉宫                                 看见有摄影队,好象是极速!         看见一个女的在跟一位姥姥拍照。但是只有她一个人。
At the temple(I forgot what it's called :P) Saw film crews, I think it's TAR! Saw a woman taking a pic with a grandma, but she was alone.

If it's a joke, I'm glad I played along.

If it's not, I'm glad I can help lol.

Just an fyi, about ColetteLala, she's the one that tweeted about JJ making it past four legs, she didn't unprotect her tweets, it's still locked. It's just you have to request to be a follower and then you can read hers. Just sayin.

Reading between the lines ColetteLala's tweets were a joke or "jab" at someone to rile them up.

let me help:

In Potala Palace, saw some filming crews, looks like TAR! saw 1 lady taking photo with a granny, but only she was alone.

No, because the twitter probably meant the person is extremely excited for the season finale of TAR 15 having its repeat telecast tonight on Channel 5. :funny:

TAR games are very popular in SG schools; they generate many false leads and photos. And HTA is probably Home Team Academy.

Just a few pointers: Here in Singapore, there are many TAR based theme challenges, so don't get mixed up by this, as many schools, camps and even churches organize this. regardless what, i doubt that TAR16 will ever visit Singapore, after the poor concept in TAR3, i am still praying that TAR16 comes to Singapore
