Some interesting (and some not so interesting) facts and records!

re: elims - 21 would be M/F + 2 M/M (I know it doesn't FEEL like it with the twins yelling throughout half of the final but Lexi was the last woman standing <3)
Also funny quirk for this season:
- F8 NEL: Tiffany & Krista (other F/F team eliminated instead)
- F7 NEL: Denise & James Earl (other M/F team eliminated instead)
- F6 NEL: Tanner & Josh
- F6 Boot: Tanner & Josh
- F5 Boot: Denise & James Earl
- F4 Boot: Tiffany & Krista
so symmetrical :luvya:

TAR 21 teams finished 2, 3, 5, 6 in first leg is the also the 2, 3, 5, 6 team to boot and all of them had a transport problem in their elimination legs
theschnauzers:
As noted in the Ranking the Teams thread, we had a very unusual pattern emerge beginning with leg 5 through 11; starting with leg 5, the average placement order of the remaining teams after each leg did not change; in fact, no matter the order of finish, the average placements of the final three teams won't change.
I started computing trends during the season around TAR 10 or so, and this is the first time I've ever seen this particular pattern. It's that unusual.

I think the only changed throughout the season is Tanner&Josh's fall?
Others do not change that much in their relative position
theschnauzers:
I'm referring to the order of the teams by placement average; Josh and Tanner were eliminated the leg Team Green caught up to them in the numerical placement averages. In my trends analysis I drop teams off as of the leg they are eliminated.
But as I noted, this was a freaky occurrence, and if I were to go back all the way to season one and recreate those earlier seasons, I doubt we'd see anything similar from those seasons as well.
