Thats a pretty strong statement. Any proof? Because from what Ive seen and heard the "leaders" are as frustrated as everybody else (maybe more so)that the Race ended without being seen.

It's not often I jump in to defend Apskip's opinions, but I feel it is necessary this time.
This is your first season chasing the spoilers, so you do not know, but a LOT of the time, there are a few here that know the final destination city, however they do not reveal it to the rest of us. Apskip, who has followed the spoilers for a long time, knows this and is making an assumption based on past experience. An assumption which I believe is based on a nearly 100% occurrence in past seasons.

It's in the Los Angeles region at El Segundo the city just south of LAX. I recall tha WRP also has major offices in Marina del Rey, which is seaside unincorporated area of Los Angeles County with a 2000 population of 8,176.
I believe that the LAX sitings were of WRP crew not needed for the finish whether it was. There are leaders of RFF who know but are not telling us.

Thank you apskip! I knew something was up.

Yet. They sometimes let a few more things out at least a week or so before the season starts, after the cast is officially released, or as things go along during the season.

Something I personally don't understand is the withholding of information -- it always confused me -- this IS a spoiler site afterall..
MamaT:
I didnt mean to start anything here :groan: and I certainly dont need to fight other people's battles, but may I offer a different perspective? One of the most important words (IMO) that I used in my praise for all the hardworking spoilers here is RESPECT. Respect for the show, the people that make it, the people that run it. Because of that respect, there are times that certain information cannot be shared, I would suspect. I admire the restraint that is often shown. I trust that there is good reason that not everything gets divulged. Hell, I'm a nobody here and I had info that didnt get posted. Not out of any big conspiracy, or any delight in withholding, but because the release of the info would have gotten someone in trouble. Someone who didnt deserve to get in trouble. Im sure that that is often the case, and it must be a fine line to walk between protecting your sources and sharing the news.
FWIW, I dont believe that anyone knows much more about the end city than has been reported. But if Im wrong, Im OK with that. I trust that there is a reason and that it is a sound one and that the info will be shared with the rest of us when the time is right.
Until I am ready to go without sleep for nights on end, or take time off from work or spend years cultivating the relationships that bring me news, Im not willing to criticize or complain about those that do. I wil simply sit here in gratitude and appreciation.
