Yes a really bad week for me, I read the spoiler a little bit but didnt read in detail....Haha was busy man...

After a good start, this was not what I wanted but this should end my chase for the leaders after also missing the first two weeks.

I think top 10 would be a good achievement still...

I'll be away from Singapore for the next two weeks or so but since there's no TAR12 next week due to Survivor finale, I dont think its practical to post the questions now? I think I'll still find a computer in eastern europe in time but who knows haha...  :cmas5

Damm, I'll be missing mostly importantly the survivor finale.... :groan:

Boss,lady, please clarify:

Does this mean all teams will leave on the same flight and all teams arrive in Italy on the same flight?

Or does it mean that all teams are on the same flight when it lands somewhere in Italy?

Or if they leave together does this mean yes as the answer to your question?

If all 5 teams are on the same flight then the answer is yes, if perhaps one team catch's a different flight then the answer is no.
Now if for some reason they are on different flights but their connection in the same to Italy and they are all on that flight then the answer is yes.  :cmaslol

Gotcha, clear as mud.

So if they leave on different flights, but arrive in Italy on the same flight, then the answer is yes.

But if they leave Croatia on the same flight, but arrive in Italy on different flights, then the answer is no.

Or am I dense?

Maybe since it's an iffy area everybody should just get points?

I would say it IS a penalty because phil told them about it at the pitstop -- they already know about it going INTO the next leg, and the question says "Do any teams recieve a penalty at the pitstop" not "Do any teams have to endure a penalty at the pitstop"

Well just to add more of my argument on this thread.

In seasons 5-6, teams were penalized at the Pit Stop, money was taken directly off their person , they ere also penalized in the next leg by not getting additional funds.

In seasons 7-9 teams were also penalized at the Pit Stop, money and all possession not on their back was immediately taken from them, they then were also penalized in the next leg by not receiving addition funds.

In season 10 and All Stars though, that changed the penalty hits the next episode fully.  There is no penalty given to them that episode.

Again the best way to state my case (just so Michael doesn't gain about 100 points over me on this leg) is when David & Mary were last in Season 10.  In your mind were they given the penalty on leg 8, or where they given the penalty at the Pit Stop when they had to wait 30 minutes?

But they still RECIEVED the penalty at the pitstop
Phil says
"You have been marked for elimination" (in regards to David/Mary, Dustin/Kandice, etc..)

Today Phil told the goths that they will have to face a new twist -- he told them today, therefore they received the penalty at the pitstop

the question has nothing to do with when they have to endure the penalty  :cmas28
