No! Falling down. Must....climb....back to the top! :lol:

Wow: Three way tie between me, Peach, and Mswood for Leg 3. I think we're all on the same sinking boat! :ascared

Still happy about doing so well, there are plenty of legs to come! :yess:

Hello Guys!!! :)

I'm new here and getting a hang of this forum.

This game seems very much interesting, entertaining & demanding and everyone's so into it! I'm quite a huge fan of TAR and'd like to join ;D

But as I'm new here  I'm not quite sure whether I can join after 3 legs into the race and I can't login at the game page with my RFF username & password. So can someone help me with these issues please? Any guideline for a newbie like me will be appreciated :)

Really hope to get to know all you guys well :D

Welcome to the Forum Jeesan...

And the more the merrier.  You can join at any time (and hell most of the questions are at best educated guesses), I score both individual weeks (so you can be a top scorer) and the overall scores, and even starting now you can do fairly well.

Submitted my answers for the first time :wohoo:

But I got a question: after I pressed 'submit answers', the same page loads again with my options selected and the same 'submit answers' at the end of the page. Does this mean there has been some error with the process, cause my browser says 'done, but with errors on the page'? :(

 :waves: Jeesan

There is nothing wrong with that. Don't worry, you are on the right track! There is no error, I believe, and the reason for that query is that a player can edit his/her prediction answers anytime before the deadline, so you are actually loaded back to the same page so that you can edit if you want! Of course, you can go out after that because your answers have been saved.

Ew, I did awfully. I should've taken more of a risk and said that Zev & Justin would be in first a lot more. I assumed they would be in the middle, but this was just an awful, awful way for it to end. :'(

Sorry folks about the delay, but I hadn't had a good copy of the episode to watch (until right now), so I will watch and then score this bad boy (and boy I did do awful, awful).

Hmmmm. I think they are still in first. If they had found the passport in time, there would have been no issue and they would have remained in first. I think.

This would have been a production call though as to whether there would have been a penalty, and is more than open to debate.  :duno:
