Well, I think I may have phrased that wrong. Hate wasn't the right word, more of a dislike.

Anyway what I meant as to what I think of the cast

GTFO my screen!!!  :knuckles: (:;) :meow:
Ron/Christina
Kynt/Vxysin
Mel/Mike


Why the Season 12 hate?  :(

I never really like S12 in the first place. I hated most of the teams that season  :knuckles:

and Mel/Mike were on S14

Aww..  :(.

Yup, I knew Mel & Mike were from S14, just said S12 since both the teams racing from S12 are on your GTFO list.  :snicker:

I might get mobbed here since a lot of people like Ron/Christina and the goths :escape :hides

I think some people view KJ as a "mean" team b\c of the whole Margie and Luke issue.

I'm looking at it more as who more deserves to be on there, not who I like/dislike  B:)

and, by the looks of it, the teams that I felt least deserved to be on were out the first few out

so, i'm quite content with this season

the only exception is the globetrotters, i don't approve of quitters  (:;)

What you don't understand is that, Big Easy was working on that task for 3 hours. He had no clue at all. It was more strategic to take a penalty then rather than later. You can say that you don't like quitters, but mostly everyone would do the same thing, if they were in that situation.

If I were doing that roadblock, I would've finished the puzzle portion in 10 minutes tops

It's not that hard to figure out, and if you came at it with any form of a strategy at all (which all other teams did), you would've been able to do the same

I guess pure psychology frazzled his mind, esp. at such a late stage in the race. IIRC, he said he thought he had already answered FRANZ, but clearly he didn't.
I wonder how long he was actually at that ask.

As to Kisha and Jen...

I think that season 14 is one of (competitively) the weakest casts ever. I don't know how these girls committed to the race when one of them had such a terrible fear of swimming. She could have got in the pool and walked down and back or something. I think in any other season, they're a top 6-7 team, but nowhere near as close as they got to F3.

The Globetrotters...

Big Easy has to get that challenge. I know he said he thought he had guessed it before, but you have to try some again or something. Especially when he was told it started with F.

I give FT and BE the edge because he did think he had guessed it, but both of these have to be two of the biggest collapses in F4 history.

Thats wonderful Mr. Genius. You might think you can do all these tasks from watching them on tv, but its not as easy as it looks.

Look, its a really simple logic challenge:

Start with the letter that comes first alphabetically, except the word can't possibly start with 'a', so move on to the next letter: f

Combo 1: FANRZ
Combo 2: FARNZ

and at that point, I would recognize FARNZ, but I guess that's just cause I'm a genius  :res:

So it should only take a few combos to figure it out, and if you're really smart, you'd wait until you've found an answer you're confident in

Literally 10 minutes, its not rocket science here

Apparently, he never took a statistics or literature class in high school. Using permutations to figure this puzzle out would be easy, and knowing who Franz Kafka is would really help. I would finish this task easily.

But using COMMON SENSE would work best, which is something he didn't have.

He was told that the word starts with an "F" there are four letters remaining right, another 4 possible combinations and there are like 16 words possible.

It would have taken 20 minutes to figure out.

Do I agree the task was easy? Yes.
Do I think he made it way harder than it was supposed to be? Yes.
Should he have been able to solve the task? Most definitely.
Does that make him a complete idiot? Doubt it, I still believe he psyched himself out.

She could have got in the pool and walked down and back or something. I think in any other season, they're a top 6-7 team, but nowhere near as close as they got to F3.

Actually, more people would want to join the race just because they want to overcome their fear! And if you have the fear, why will it barricade you from joining? The race is not all swimming! It doesn't make sense.

And you've got to remember that they are on olympic-size swimming pool. This is just an educated guess: I think you can't walk on it because it's deep. I don't know in the case of the tall Jen, but I really think it's hard.

You really can't gauge a team's placement if you would place it to other seasons! Who knows, maybe Steve and Linda might have won S15 if they were there (as much as I think it's impossible, well, haha). :lol:

I'm reasonably certain that they would not be able to stand up in an olympic pool.

At 6 foot 4 and (roughly) the same height as the two, I cannot stand up in a full size olympic pool.
