TAR14 EP7: 'Gorilla? Gorilla?? Gorilla???' (Phuket, Thailand)
Chateau d If:
--- Quote from: gingerman28 on March 29, 2009, 09:55:32 PM ---I know that Chateau is a master of light, shadow, and time, but in this case we have a problem. He listed the teams arriving in order from the pictures CBS released of the teams at the pitstop. He has the team of Mark and Michael in third place, but upon careful analysis frame by frame of both their first time they arrived and received the penulty of 60 minutes and when they finally checked in 60 minutes later, there is an absolute positive match to the picture Chateau used placing all the teams at the pitstop check in between 11:48AM and 12:19PM to their first arrival 56 minutes before the others. So this picture of Mark and Michael actually was 56 minutes earlier or around 11:00AM. If the shadows were read correctly, then this picture used in the previews of M/M would place them in the first position not third.
And the question of a penulty for having a taxi lead the way. Unless it was specically stated in the extended writen instructions which we never get to hear or see, it is not the first time that teams have asked taxies to lead them to a particular spot. Happens all the time and even previously in TAR14.

Thanks Gman. I think the editors were mixing the shots. Here is the shot when they first try to check in and the plaque is shaded.
And here is the shot when they get the official check in. The plaque now has lots of sun on it.

Mel and Mike went to the elimination station fwiw

DrRox:
I was a little suprised at that too, Puddin. But then again, ES is so close. Its not like they have to fly them all the way back to Acapulco or Portugal. I guess they think they can get by with 2 decoy teams.
Moo:
Could there actually be no decoy teams this season? Guilin is rather near Thailand too, and probably the 5th placer actually be sent there too? :tup:
