NO, it isn't. According to the RFF Radio show interviews it is equality +- 1. In a 12 leg race that works out to 7-5 but if you had 11 legs it would be 6-5 or if you had 13 legs it would be 7-6, except for teams that won a FAST FORWARD and missed that leg's ROADBLOCK.

I think this makes the most sense, as it also agrees with what Kevin posted in his video that teammates had to do an "even" number of Roadblocks.
Caelestor:
Does equality +-1 mean that the RB count cannot differ by more than 2 at any time of the race?

If I recall correctly, Connor did 4 RBs and Jonathan had not done any when they were eliminated. So it would appear not.
georgiapeach:
This race it was 7-5.
Apskip is correct in saying that, as far as I know, the basic rule is even + one, for them to end up...

You're right, I think they are only worried about the final result.
C/J were foolish to allow that to happen though, what if they had been on for a long time?
