I just want to clarify that when I state a team is stupid, I am not talking about what people call book smarts, but the ability read, have basic comprehension skills, and the ability to think on their fleet.
Take Eric & Jeremy a team that no one would accuse of being smart (including themselves), yet with a few exceptions raced extremely smart.
In fact many of the "Mactor" teams have raced well over their seasons.
Teams need a balance, of basic reasoning skills, and basic athleticism to typical do well on this race (their have been exceptions).
I don't think so far that any of the eliminated teams have shown any balance.
Caelestor:
To be fair, the tourist office shared some of the blame. Furthermore, this season is much harder navigation-wise since maybe TAR 6? Racers have not been spoon-fed instructions, and it shows. BADLY. :groan:
However, this was the best leg in terms of task design and execution (editing) since TAR 14. Now we just need to fix the cast. I understand the casting director needs drama, but really, stupidity lowers the enjoyment.
Caite really grated this leg, and it looks like she'll continue next episode. My God that voice. She needs to get out ASAP. Well one can wish...
TARAsia Fan:
I'm glad I'm not the only one on Caite. I said on Twitter how much I disliked her racing and I got 30 tweets attacking me. :lol:

Actually self navigation wise seasons 7, 9, 10, 11 all had far more (in miles way, way more) and in far worse (and difficult areas, both in locations and language barriers) then what teams have had to do this season.
