This shot was taken between 11:27 and 11:33 am (assumes August 7th).

So the camera crew still had a good half hour to work up the sweat that artlover's relatives reported seeing later on around noon down by Caesar's Palace.

^^ which makes it WAY to early from what we know about the other final 3 teams! Thanks Chateau

Yes, and actually, the exif data on the shots of Harlem and father/son team says:

Harlem 11:03:59 am
Father/son 11:07:59 am

I just did not trust it for sure.

What a fun video! Looks like decoys to me too, still excited my sister got to see part of the action live though! Very excited about this season.

We can clearly hear the woman speaking on the video "there they go, off to the airport" Could it be that the decoys are off to the airport to catch a plane to the actual last pit stop and meet up with the final three and others teams who have been sequestered somewhere?

VegasSinner spotted our actual final 3 in Vegas, so it can be assumed that the race ends outside of Vegas which may be where the cab is headed.

They might have went to the terminal in hopes of being spotted Gman. And the person taking the video I assume did not follow them to the terminal for all we know they were dropped off a few blocks away to run around Vegas some more. We have sightings of the father/son and GlobeTrotters after noon as well.

I would think the filmer just thought they were going to the airport since they went that direction. They could have been going to the MGM Grand where we know a task took place. It's in the same direction as the airport from where they are.

We need one of Boingo's "where have they been" in Vegas maps

In due time, puddin. We only know for certain of three confirmed sightings (of the decoys), namely the Venetian, Caesars, and the Golden Gate (downtown - Fremont Experience). No need for a map before we know which wedding chapel for sure.

BTW, I don't think the "green team" came from the north as indicated in the above map. If you look at the first few seconds of the video, they are seen in the crosswalk of the Venetian coming from the south to catch a cab (you can see the camera guy also coming that way). They must have been doing something south of the Venetian and later went north to enter the Venetian property to get a cab. hmmmmmm... not sure what this means yet.... this would be even more interesting if we didn't already know that they were decoys.

graytex · « **Reply #735 on:** August 13, 2009, 11:27:08 PM »

I'm no map person, that's for sure. I was intending to show the relationship of the MGM and airport to the Venetian. The person filming said they were headed to the airport, but just wanted to show that they could just as well be headed to the MGM, which VegasSinner mentioned.

and a fine map it is, graytex. My comments to puddin were meant to stimulate discussion... given the few actual facts we have. Jump right in and join the debate.

I was just thinking that the decoys went up onto the Rialto Bridge, crossed over, and came down the other side. Maybe there was not even a decoy clue box there. Just a loop. My time estimate of 11:27 to 11:33 may well be 15 minute ahead of reality. I kind of winged it on estimating the angle that lamp post's shadow made with the curb. Re-looking at it tells me it may have been 11:12 to 11:18 am for the video. If that is real and if the camera's clock was right (11:08 for the Father/son team) then it would appear the decoys did a simple run over the bridge and were caught on tape as they returned to grab a taxi.

I'm real good at circular reasoning eh?

I suppose we could just ask the guy who took the video if they actually crossed the bridge (which, from the angle, is where the video appears to be shot), however we do have Racefan82 (who took pictures) on the board. Maybe he can tell us any additional details of the racers movements at the Venetian.

moved to the flight thread nvm

Racefan82 · « **Reply #740 on:** August 16, 2009, 08:41:31 PM »

The Father/son team came in and were in full sprint mode, which made me believe they were in it. Like I said, way too hot to be "faking it".

I don't know if anyone else has questioned this, but VegasSinner seems to have way too much inside knowledge on this and had it pretty early. This makes me believe he is either a WRP member gone rogue or could possibly be throwing us off the scent. So far, he has no photos or any proof.

puddin and I both stand by VegasSinner and the info s/he has graciously provided. Nuff said?

yeah, where the hell will be in "somewhere", Japan? Will it be on that "somewhere" is a real town or city on that country which it is a Japanese translation? Or I have a feeling that they'll go to... Obama, Japan! Which in that city is named after the current U.S. president. Actually, it's a Japanese word for little beach, if you don't know it.

Or maybe that "somewhere" is also in Naruto[?] and they didn't want to reveal the name of that city for now because the producers of TAR might feared that the Japanese anime fans all over the world will watch this show and they'll thinking that it's an anime series and not a reality show. This is also an ironic name as well like Obama because there's really such thing as Naruto in Japan, not only the name of a ninja anime character.

btw, I'd also noticed on the route map for TAR 15 on the 5th-6th leg, they went from UAE to Israel which this is quite peculiar for that route because as all I know most of the Arab countries (except Jordan and Egypt) don't recognize Israel as a country and it's a forbidden to most of Arab or Muslim countries to go to Israel either on land, air and sea due to political issue on the Israel-Palestinian conflict.

Neobie, thanks for the TAR 15 map. It's aaaamazzzzing.

Love the (2) Somewhere Japan especially.
