Amazing Race Asia -- More Recaps

<< < (2/4) > >>

Turns out Blogger is an absolute [derogatory term of choice] about uploading the PDF files I was going to upload to make the recaps easier to read, so I've moved over to Wordpress. Episode 6 still isn't up (I was going to finish off the last little bit and have it up today, but the Celebrity Hunk of the Week passed away yesterday, and I'm still trying to figure out what to do about it.)

The new blog: Snide Asides.

It's finally up. (Scroll down.) Thoughts, comments, suggestions? If I don't find out what you think, I can't improve on my writing.

tarflyonthewall,

Four comments:
1. I like your cheeky, breezy writing style.
2. I went to your link and attempted to click on ARA1 episode 6. I got an error message, "File does not begin with %PDF" and a black screen.
3. Why no episode 4 recap?
4. I assume you are doing it tongue-and-cheek, but I don't like seeing you messing with the names of ARA1 racers. his name is "Sahran", not "Cirran". It's OK to apply that technique to "Or Clend", but not to names.

Thanks! That's exactly the mood I was going for (though the latest recap was unusually bitter.)

Huh. That just happened to me too, which surprises me because it worked when I added it. I'll try and sort the problem out today.

Partially because I live in Melbourne, and there's this whole Melbourne-Sydney rivalry thing I subscribe to, which means I'll be making fun of the city's lameness instead of the teams and tasks for an entire hour, and partially because my copy of the episode -- found in several parts, if you know what I mean -- has a large section in the middle with audio problems so bad you'd swear everybody was Daleks. I could barely even watch it the first time, let alone recapping it. (But it did make 'Click Go The Shears' a helluva lot more fun.)

Point taken, and after I fix this latest recap, I'm jumping around between seasons and episodes, so it's not going to happen as often anyway (I had one planned for Rovilson, and that was it.) Plus, it's a pain typing out Admiral Whinypants for Andrew every time.

tarflyonthewall:
And fixed.
