OK, Thanks! I was wondering and I was thinking "Is this because of a TBC leg?..."

Here is a quote from the Ep11 #3 thread
If you read RealityWanted.net, there is a good interview with Kynt and Vyxsin. Kynt ends it with a statement that "the next 3 episodes(meaning the final 3) are all going to be "nail-biters". I can't use that word to describe what happened in Osaka, but I can apply that expectation to both Taipei and Alaska.
What we have predicted for a Don/Nic way behind scenario does not mesh with the Goth interview. CBS has been pretty good at using yellow filters, showing only one team per clip, etc. to tell the story they want to tell. Hmmm.

Even Nathan tells us, in the web clip, this iis going to be a nail-biter.
I don't know that the filters mean anything but Don/Nic are pinkish or is it orangeish? whatever.
Chris & Ron are purplish
Jen & Nate are blueish
Rachel & TK are yellowish
(vidcaps here)
Belle Book:
I guess with the plan not to have the Final 3 teams on TES, we can only make the following accurate assumption: Nathan & Jennifer will make the Final 3. They are one of the strongest teams, and they are the annoying/villain team. This team tends to get to the Final 3, so why should this team be any different? I just hope they don't win!
Other than that, it's anybody's guess who'll be eliminated, although considering the photo of Ron & Christina at the Pit Stop, I'm going to assume they also make the finals. This leaves us with Nicholas & Don and T.K. & Rachel. Although there are some photos which indicate that Nicholas & Don are way behind, we've seen them in Alaska. Moreover, T.K. & Rachel have that Speed Bump to do.
Right now, I think T.K. & Rachel will fail to make the finals, but it could be Nicholas & Don.

Are they ahead? Behind? Or do the other teams have to wait somewhere else?

--- Quote ---The following is quoted:
It seems clear that the flow of the next leg will be:
1. Taipei 101 for first clue
2. Roadblock in Jiji Town
3. Detour in Taipei at night (probably Speed bump here)
4. Pit stop at CKS Memorial
--- End quote ---
Sorry I am new here and have not figured out the ropes yet!
I am assuming that TK and Rachel catch up to everyone at the airport. Earasing the 3 hour different. The only item holding them back is the speed bump. Soooo the race the finish line is between the Gramps team and TK& Rachel?
Is it confirmed that it is Jen's birthday?
BTW the sleuthing on this boards is absolutely awesome!
mswood:
If Nicolas & Don were sited in Alaska (and not a false spoiler, which can happen) we are left with three possible options.
1. They are a decoy team (which might explain why no one else is witnessed. Often the production has had the 4th team used as a decoy, with the decrease in budget we don't know if the production is still doing this (something to ask at Tarcon.).
2. The finale leg does end in Alaska (which we don't know, even if some feel that it does). Then Nicolas & Donald could be spotted, and also be not scene with the other racers (or the groups from earlier eliminations).
3. They manage to make the final three. Now with photo evidence and the breakdown of the episode this doesn't look good for this team. But teams can be ahead at most stages of the race and hit one snag and fall hours behind (over the years we have lots of examples of this). So things like teams getting lost, teams getting taken by cabs to the wrong location, having difficulty with tasks, penalties, having addition tasks can push a team that was doing well to the back of the pack.
With it being Sunday, we shouldn't get any additional info to clarify.
But I did put it in my personal order of what I think is most likely the case (1 being the most likely).
And while I mention the possibility of a false sighting. I don't like to question the accuracy of the spoilers (though they can be wrongs and in error). Both to just human error and in people planting false sightings (this happened a lot with the inaccurate accounts on All Stars by posters just wanting to mess with fans.
