unprecedented mistake
TARAsia Fan:
There are a few Portlands in the US. That's a good guess that they went to Maine instead of Oregon.
puddin:
That would be so wrong! lol
TARAsia Fan:
But so funny!

I have looked at this for quite a while now; the conclusion I draw is that van Munster has created a mountain out of a molehole. There are 11 teams that are due to show up for the Finish Line. Only 3 of them are still competing. I see a 8/11 = 73% probability that the only impact of this unprecedented mistake is that one of the already-eliminated teams is not present at the Finish Line. There is a 27% chance that one of the three Finalist teams is impacted, which would have the result of being only two teams able to compete for the Finish Line.
So, I think this is a classic misdirect play by van Munster.

I can't agree with you apskip. All of the sequestered teams are kept together and led by the nose to wherever they have to go and whatever they have to do. No free loaders here. Even the last several eliminated teams are kept under wraps by production people (what the heck are interns for anyway). So I think it is a 100% probability that all eight eliminated teams will be brought screaming, lock, stock and barrel to the final mat in Portland.
The idea that one team gets a plane from Frankfurt to Portland Maine (via Boston) is a very real possibility and would be a real, old fashioned, hoot.
