The Amazing Race: What If
Best Loser:
--- Quote from: Dave the 2nd on December 15, 2011, 06:13:18 PM ---What If Linda & Karen got to the F3?? Do you think they would have had any chance? The fight would have been against Chip & Kim and Brendon & Nicole, so it wasn't that hard in a footrace to the finish line after a flight.
What If Monica & Sheree had survived Leg 3? Do you think they could have done waaay better, or just F6 at most?
What if Eric & Lisa had run an entire leg, would they have had any chances to stay in the upper half at the end of the race?
What if David & Jeff had taken the same flight as the other two teams in the F3 of TAR4? Would they have won?

Linda & Karen probably would have struggled with the tasks in Canada though not nearly as much as Chip & Kim. If they were slow enough, they might have arrived at the airport late enough for the early flight to be cancelled. Let's say Chip & Kim arrive in Dallas the same time. Chip & Kim struggled with the maze, I think it was something like 45 minutes. So the Bowling Moms possibly could have gotten first if they knew a good maze techinque.
I can't remember why Kelly & Jon missed the flight from Hawaii to the continental US, was it because they went to the wrong terminal? I don't think David & Jeff would have made that mistake. They probably wouldn't have figured out the puzzle, so it depends whether they or Reichen & Chip arrived at the stadium first. I'm speculating that David & Jeff would have been faster on the bikes, but I doubt it was long enough of a ride to make a difference if they made it there second.
How about some first elimination what ifs? What if:
Gina & Silvia beat Derek & Drew?
Avi & Joe beat Gus & Hera?
Ryan & Chuck beat Ron & Kelly?
I haven't seen the 10th season, but who was the 11th team to the checkpoint?

Season 10 was a special case because they eliminated one team (Bilal & Sa'eed) at a surprise mid-leg elimination point (the overnight rest in the Forbidden City) and then another (Vipul & Arti) at the end of the leg.
What if there had been no mid-leg elimination in TAR10? Would Vipul & Arti still be eliminated at the end of Leg 1? How far would Bilal & Sa'eed make it?
What if Eric & Lisa had been on Unfinished Business? How would they have done?

I'm very sure both Vipul and Arti and Bilal and Saeed won't last long.
Eric and Lisa seems like Lance and Keri-ish and most probably won't last long or make the final 6.
David:
About the TAR 4 finale, I think that if David & Jeff and Reichen & Chip had met in the stadium sometime, if D/J didn't get the answer they'd just copy the other teams to find the clue.
And the bikes would have made the difference, IMHO. I think they could have done it, really.
Yes, I meant Monique & Shawne! :D I also loved Monica & Sheree.
Gina & Silvia beat Derek & Drew?
Avi & Joe beat Gus & Hera?
Ryan & Chuck beat Ron & Kelly?
I don't really think Avi & Joe had what it takes to make it further. When I first saw them, they had a 9th-Place style of running the race.
Gina & Sylvia, I think that is the kind of team that if it makes it to the finals is mostly because of luck and other teams' mistakes. I didn't think they were really good either.
About Ryan & Chuck, yes. I thought they'd do better. Definitely, when I started watching TAR7, I never thought they could be the first team out. Surprise!
What if Mel & Mike had used their Fast Forward in Phukhet?
What if Luke had found the tea cup faster? F3 again?
What if Hope & Norm hadn't been eliminated in Leg 2? I felt they could have gotten furhter...
What if the cowboys got to the U-Turn in TAR18 before the twatters? Would they have U-Turned them? Would the Twatters be eliminated?

For the first one, Kisha & Jen would go home :cmas4 and then Mark & Michael leave in the F5, because they had too many penalties. Then, Tammy & Victor would probably U-Turn someone else (Margie & Luke or Jaime & Cara, probably the former) and Mel & Mike would make the F3, unless they had as much trouble finding the U-Turn as Jaime & Cara did. In the F3, they would probably start out behind with the physical pig-carrying task, but they might've been a decent chance at the memory challenge! :cmas16
For the second one, the Globetrotters would've gone home in India, and then Rontina would leave next. :cmas4 Gallory get the Speed Bump in Austria, but Jet & Cord most probably still go home in Switzerland, because nobody shared their answers with them. Then Kent & Vyxsin would leave in the second Swiss leg (assuming they still made their same mistake) and Zev & Justin in Brazil.
We have a Final Three of Gallory, Jen/Kisha and Margie/Luke. It's probably going to come down to who has the best taxi, but personally (in my completely unbiased opinion :cmaslol ) Kisha & Jen would still win, since they seemed to be really fast at assembling their mobile home! :cmas16 Hard to say for sure, though.
