Is there any confirmation if the 2 hour season premiere is actually 2 legs?

Like

Starting Line elim
Leg 1 - NEL (Speedbump next leg?)
Leg 2 - Japan EL?

:D

Thanks... I got quite confused with Ray and Puddin's statements above lol... :D

Yes, it is two legs (or at least two single episodes mushed into one). But we don't know if the first leg is an elimination leg or not. Based on precedence, it probably will be. We very well could lose 3 teams in the first episode.

There is still the chance that the Japan leg is an NEL. If this is the case though, then NONE of the Japan Pit Stops - in all editions - have yet eliminated anyone. :funny: (I was originally gonna say 'legs', but I remembered that one team is eliminated in the first leg & in the Israel TAR, Hannah/Margalit were eliminated in the Japan leg, but not at the Pit Stop - they were eliminated in the hospital, right? As far as my memory serves me right. :P)
I'm baaaaaack!

Ironic it is that the teams are being spared in the most, if not one of the most, expensive countries in the world...  :funny: :funny:

What is the evidence that Maria & Tiffany are already eliminated at this point? Is it just the fact that there are so many sightings of them?

Hooky, since I made the most recent statement about this, I will attempt to answer you. The most recent judgment on this subject comes from Peach on the START LINE ELIMINATION AND NEW TWIST IN THE RACE  thread (you must have missed it yesterday afternoon):

« Reply #57 on: Yesterday at 12:54:07 PM »  

They were NOT seen on the ferry...which is one reason they WERE decoys.

You have the right to not accept that information, but if you don't then what is your evidence that they are still in the race? Their photographed and reported actions in Tallinn certainly underscore their status as decoys.

I'm pretty convinced that Tiffany/Maria are decoys. Even if they weren't decoys for the Estonia leg, they weren't even spotted running the final leg (either as a F3 or decoy team), so that adds to the fact that they were eliminated before the finale. Just one thing: Don't dceoys normally just run the finale? Don't get me wrong, but from recent memory, most decoys only serve as decoys for the final leg. Unless I missed facts left & right (and knowing my recent luck with info, that's most likely the case :funny:). Can any of the TAR detectives clear this up for me? :P

Not just the Finale. Usually at least the last 4 legs or so. Remember seeing Christy and Kelly watching DanDrew?

Ah yes. My TAR 13 faves. <3<3<3<3 I just thought that it was weird how before TAR 15, I haven't read of one single decoy sighting outside the US. Thanks a lot, peach. :tup:

One of my favorite teams actually were sent to run decoy in ATLANTA...and wouldn't I have had a heart attack??

They were literally about 2 miles from my house...

Interesting...If you watch the Vierhuizen video, the effort by the Poker team seems unenergetic.

Thanks for clearing it up everyone. I was pretty sure they were decoys (because I trust you judgements) but it's nice to see the evidence. :tup:

Yes racer, you are correct.

Remember that you can always check out puddin's excellent spoiler summaries on page one of the spoiler thread if you have questions. And there is also a separate TIMELINE thread where we discuss times and dates.

SO this would be the corrected order as we believe it to be now:

Leg 1: USA --> Tokyo, Japan
Leg 2: Japan --> Vietnam
Leg 3: Hồ Chí Minh City (aka Saigon), Vietnam
Leg 4: Vietnam --> Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Leg 5: Cambodia --> Dubai, UAE
Leg 6: UAE
Leg 7: UAE --> Groningen, Netherlands 
Leg 8: Netherlands --> Stockholm, Sweden
Leg 9: Sweden --> Tallinn, Estonia
Leg 10: Estonia --> Prague, Czech Republic
Leg 11: Czech Republic --> Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

Have just received some new info from jenimama about her team sightings in Phnom Penh at Wat Phnom.

After looking at some new team photos, she confirms that the male/male team she saw was Dan and Sam and NOT Zev and Justin.

Quote
Oh man, that was totally tricky, but then I do believe it was Sam and Dan because I remember they wore red backpacks, and on the website you sent me, I see that Sam and Dan wear red backpacks. So that must have been them.


That means that the three teams seen by her and documented were the Trotters, Erika/Brian, and Sam/Dan.

Even with that myspace photo at the Jets game ... I still get them mixed up.  I'm not even sure now if Sam & Dan speak while they are on the shuttle.  It could be all Garrett, Ron and Brian!   :lol:

I know, I should know who speaks but I was trying to be inconspicuous for the ride!
