Considering I missed out on a possible 400 (And I went through the season unspoiled), I am over the moon that I made top 20

Both you and Joab would have done fairly well.  But even missing one week is exceptionally hard to catch up on.

My only problem is that it's way too easy (and tempting) to view the spoilers. I'd like to see a race where I knew all of the locations and tasks, but none of the teams and their performances beforehand.

Its a hard one, I mean I love spoilers.  But sometimes, I think we actually get a little to much. 

But take All Stars, I loved the sitings we got from Izad.  But I wish we never got the boot list.  Even if Peach and Puddin know (and I think they probably have) I don't think they wouldn't be the ones to give out that info.

Wahoo! Top 10. :)

With an average of 96.25 points per round.

That's not bad for somebody that started in 26th...

Yeah, the reason why I say that is watching the episode knowing who's going to be eliminated sort of takes the suspense and enjoyment out of watching. Last unspoiled season for me was TAR 14, and the race hasn't been the same since.

Congratulations, Caelestor! Join the winner's circle! :snicker:

This edition was anything but predictable, so I would like to congratulate you for winning what I would consider one of the most difficult seasons yet. :wohoo:

Thank you mswood for two seasons of fun! Thanks for your patience in debating the questions! Let's hope next season's questions are so easy to misinterpret, though. Things went a little too far this season. :lol3:

And although I wish I didn't have to do this, I am retiring from this game (either indefinitely or for a very long time) to give some more attention to real life. So thanks for all the fun everyone, even if I didn't play for very long. :waves:
