It states the colors that had been mentioned numerous times.

Two Asians in dark blue. Two males in black. Two males in orange. Four all-female teams (blue, green, pink, brown). A male in while and a girl in purple. And I don't understand the other one.

Go to the market to get fish

How about the last 2 sentences which Mandoli could not translate.

Definitly looks like our race :)

they could have easily gotten those colors from the GMG posts or here, as stated numerous times. I would take any post going out of the way to describe what colors the teams are wearing as fake.

Lol, His portuguese is really awful, seems like he used some kind of automatic translator such as Google Translator.

"male purple on purple and white female in a team mom in black on black child in blue."

and

"sorry for bad grammar"


But again, most of this could have come from previous spoilers found HERE.

Agreed, but the Portugese can be slightly different in Sao Tome.

:bigwelcome And thank you VERY much for the help!!

I find this twitter very suspicious for reasons I am not going to spell out online. So y'all  keep recording the twitters here just in case, but please discuss this in speculation, okay?

We all need to be specially alert. Twitters are a new phenomena, and I am sure that TPTB are interested in minimizing the impact of the real ones.

But REAL ones there are, so keep them coming. Let's just try to take the chatter about them to speculation, do not do it here, this is to record the tweets. I want this thread lean and mean!

Discuss them in spec. :ty3:

Found something interesting on facebook! 

(name removed) Not completely sure, but we think The Amazing Race was filmed right down the road from our house today in Accra. Though it could've been some other American show where they run around like in a race and have cameras following after them.

They started airing season 12 here in sweden today. Donkeys galore :lol:

PS I can recommend the 'princess cake' if you are ever passing by this far north.

Its actually in Galican, a language spoken in Spain and Portugal, anyways he states that an american tv show started with boats, and that it is evidently the Amazing Race. The first part has nothing to do with the race.

Hi all,

I'm also a native portuguese speaker, and there's something that has not been said yet. That tweet mentions "an asian 2 from the east eliminated in the presidential palace", and that "9 teams were made in 8 teams".

Perhaps it means an asian team was eliminated in the presidential palace (of São Tomé?) and that there were 9 teams prior to this leg and now there is 8...

I'm not saying the tweet is legit, just adding some info :)

Thanks for posting...but the main problem is that there has not been enough time for there to have been another elim previously to take the teams to 9.

But appreciate any insight into the tweets, and translation help is always welcome.
