I haven't read anything like that on the Internet about me getting help with spelling Chekhov. But, no, I didn't get any help for spelling Chekhov. I did it all on my own. Writing down on paper helped me out a lot so that way I know which words was wrong so I can re-arrange it around without repeat same words again. I never had any special treatment on the entire race. I am really proud of myself that I did really well on the race as being a first deaf person to appear on the American version of the Amazing Race. It was kind of funny that my team was never been in danger of being eliminated till the finale episode, we fell down to the last place.

It's kind of funny was that my team and other four teams were lounging around in Phuket airport, waiting for the ticket counter to open, Jen asked me to see what is sign for "bitch". I showed her how to sign for "bitch". No idea why she wanted to know.

She was curious, maybe? If I were her, I'd probably be curious too. :lol:

Weird thing is, the second Asian edition also featured a deaf team & a team that was not in danger of finishing last until the finale. :lol:
ETA: Thanks apskip. :D

Raymond,
Your terminology needs revision. Any team in the final three is never eliminated. Team that don't win just place 2nd or 3rd even if they do not reach the finish line. To claim that "the second Asian edition also featured a deaf team & a team that was not in danger of elimination until the finale" is incorrect. I assume you are talking about Marc/Rovilson who finished 3rd but were not eliminated because they couldn't be. Luke's statement that he and Margie were not in danger of beling eliminated until the final episode is similarly incorrect.

About the special treatment, we saw that at the paragliding roadblock, hte racer had to be able to hear in order to take part in it, so my question is: where there any other Roadblocks you were (indirectly) told you could not do?
