GMAN!! Welcome back!! We miss you!!  :hearts:

It's been a struggle, but I tried to keep up with things, but obviously I didn't do too well - only 80 points.

But, on checking the results on the contest page, I see that for the question about whether any other women drove, the results show that I and others marked YES, but the "official" result is listed as NO. so I did not get my five points there.  (TWO WOMEN DID DRIVE)

And on the last question of whether the eliminated team got to Elimination station before Zev and Justin, I and others marked NO, while the "official" result is given as YES.  (No way to tell actually) so there go another five points., 

So I think I (and others) should be getting 10 more points!

And on the question of which team was first to get their clue at the Burj, the answer for the quiz is given as Maria and Tiffany.  But actually the poker players are indeed seen on the open area first but they are never actually seen going to the clue box.  The first shot of players actually opening the clue are Meghan and Cheyne.  There is no visual evidence that Maria or Tiffany was first at the clue box.  For all we know they may have gone over to the edge to look down 104 stories before actually going over to the clue box.

Isn't nice to have the ole geezer back to nitpick mswood's fine work?

Now I feel like I am running the game.

On your three points G-Man.

I have no ide why I put no for women drivers other then Maria & Tiffany (a I even say Mika does).  So thanks for catching that error.


On the clue at the top of the Burj.  While I do think that Marie & Tiffany get the clue first, you are absolutely right we don't to see them actually have or open a clue.  So thats another answer that has to be changed. 

On Zev & Justin.  Since I didn't include an option like:  No way to tell, wasn't shown, ect.  This was going to go strictly off of the Elimination Station footage, and even though I got this answer wrong, this one I am leaving as is.

PS

Its really good to see you, G-Man.

If there is a pit stop, are only TWO TEAMS (Meghan & Cheyne and Brian and Ericka) considered possiblities?  What if some other team checks in first?

Or do you mean which of the two teams mentioned checks in BEFORE the other team?  Their actual position could be fourth or fifth, correct?

Just to be sure we are clear on your meaning, and it wouldn't be right if I didn't nitpick!
