theamazingracer21:
I have an idea.

Each time a team wins a leg additional money (say 100,000) is added to that teams grand prize should they win the race.

Examples

Josh and Brent only won the final leg so they only win the million
While Dave and Rachel (won 8 legs and the finale so they would win 1 million plus 800,000 bonus (for winning 8 legs)

--- Quote from: RaceUntilWeDie on December 18, 2012, 07:42:24 PM ---3. Ew, I hate that nighttime transition, where clouds pass by the moon – overused.

Well that's all I have to say for editing skills..

Especially during the cloudy to rainy transition for TAR12, Burkina Faso (leg 3). Even though it has not happened twice before, the camels running and villagers avoiding the wind was just.... :cmas13 too much. :cmas30: To top it all off, Shana & Jennifer then complains... again... in the rain. A good cloud to rain transition is cool, but the mammal scurrying was too much to bear.

RaceUntilWeDie:
Anyone remember the coracle task in Leg 1? I think that task had potential but teams were too far apart it was kind of a useless thing (didn't change much of the order except the top teams).. even though it helped for some "funny" bits like Michael & Kevin and others..

So, I would love to see it return..

Except..

1. Taking place at nighttime
2. Putting the task when there's around 5 teams left.. it could call for suspense :cmas9 coracle-race? :cmaslol
3. Make this the transportation in getting to the Pit Stop.
