Fast Forwards usually happen early in the leg, for the team to avoid doing detour/roadblock and head straight to the pit stop

Don’t think the ladies would be at the U-turn board if they got a Fast Forward

U-turn photos stay

We’ve had plenty occasions of a team accidentally u-turning a team ahead of them

Apologies to TeamJody #BB19‏ @TeamJessica15


Thanks for posting the screenshot I’m on mobile

He deleted or lock this account after he tweeted that to me. I can no longer see it.

OK, I'll buy that the skiers were first, but I don't see any proof that Jody "must have been in second".

And that's just one instance. There have been several other claims that I haven't seen any evidence for.

I don't believe Jody did get there first? I thought it was The Skiers?

Examine the photos, I think Jody got to the U-turn before the Skiers. The photos at the bottom of the U-turn statue are all untouched and have the Debaters on top-- the debaters followed the Skiers, the twins, the lifeguards at the U-turn according to photos.

Here is the clock photo.  This building looks to be on the side of the plaza opposite the Dvorak statue. Slowhatch posted a link to the area on google.

Thank you for this information.  So do the photos usually remain in order too? IDK I look at the photos and the scene of the statue with photos look untouched until we see the U-turn on the Violinists.  Being the first photographer saw only Skiers coming into the castle grounds, but the violinist and Jody on the street, it's plausible they were in close proximity of each other.

later we see the skiers, debaters, lifeguards, and twins all getting there clues at the same time and showing up to the U-turn together.

Dvorak? Hmm, wonder if they could have done something with that.

There's two famous Dvoraks, the composer, and the guy who patented the keyboard layout. If there's violinists in the race, I could see the former being the theme of a task.

Time on the clock is Noon.  The morning photographer posted his photos at 9 am this morning. And didn't we learn the Skiers got to the mat at 2:30 pm?

All of those photos were taken and posted by the same person.

How did he post a picture of Jody at 12:02 when the pictures were there at 9 AM???

The composer Dvorak was a Czech, so that would be the obvious connection. The Violinists would have a big advantage. I'm not sure how you would design a task around keyboards.

Yeah, we've seen in the past how a lot of times, a team gets that one task that's exactly in their wheelhouse, there could certainly be one here for them. He was indeed a violinist and composer for string orchestra.

That's the same person. SS is his Facebook name.

He posted them all at the same time on Facebook.

What are different times?
Do they mean anything?

Time on the clock is Noon.  The morning photographer posted his photos at 9 am this morning. And didn't we learn the Skiers got to the mat at 2:30 pm?

You have to take into account time zones. Where was the photographer posting from? Could his camera be set not to local time? All that matters. 9AM whose time? Your or his? May read differently.

Ok. I understand it.

Those photos were posted 2:36 PM in Prague. That's how they caught Jody at 12:02.

I had to adjust for my timezone.

Guessing they're probably moving on from Europe next. 4 countries there now.

Georgia Peach -- do you know what time the photo of the Twins was taken at the Romantik Hotel U Raka? You posted it around 11am while the other pictures were posted at 9am?  I think all those photos around the Rudolfinum Concert Hall were taken near the 12:02 noontime as seen in the photo.
If you plot on a map from  the Hotel is a six minute drive (1.9 miles) to the Rudolfinum Concert Hall, and then just .5 mile to the Metronome Sculpture & Pitstop --- you get the idea of their journey today minus any tasks or roadblocks....

The new photo and information put the 4 teams in the front (Skiers, Lifeguards, Twins, Debaters) and 3 teams (Jody, Violinist, and mystery team) in the rear.  So Jody did slow the Violinist down due to being behind the pack.... :groan:

No sorry. Without the photographer checking their times there is no way to tell.

I'm confused. Is the time stamp on Facebook based on my timezone or the poster's timezone?

The hotel picture was posted on Facebook at 7:38 AM. But is that my time or do I have to adjust for Prague?

Yours. See where it says "14 hours ago"? BUT that just means WHEN he posted, it's not a time stamp on the pic.
