Updated to include season 32 placement leaderboards in opening post.

Hi theschnauzers!

I've checked my placements against yours, and found what doesn't match is reasonably explained, generally by the arrival order vs. departure order choice.  Two placements seem to be missing (James/Abba in 21.8 and Mike/Rochelle in 26.12, although the final totals are correct) and I believe that Reichen/Chip were 9th rather than 8th in 4.1 (and again, your final totals reflect that). 

That leaves me with two questions:
1)  You are pretty consistent at using mid-point standings, but these are missing from the Family Edition.  Was that deliberate?
2)  What basis for ordering the teams in 10 at the Helsinki Tower?  I used the order at the "KEEP RACING" clue which was T/J, D/K, L/K, R/K, E/G.

theschnauzers:
I generally have to use the arrival order, as there have been episodes in a number of seasons where the departure times aren’t even shown.
At this point I’d have to find my notes or rewatch the episode concerning the season 10 question. That’s 20 plus seasons, and 15 years ago?
When I moved this to RFF just over the decade ago, I did a rigorous review of all placements, and since that time, I review each season’s placement before posting it in the season by season thread and the overall placement thread.

As to the family edition that overnight midpoint had three different possible midpoints and three different possible orders as a result ( arrival order, finish task order, and departure order (the third was determined by the second so the third wasn’t reasonable. IIRC I used the order of arrival before the task, but I’d have to check the episode.

Keep in mind that I use “leg segments” to compute overall team averages. The leg segments have been consistent since season 13 by that measurement.

theschnauzers:
Yes, I am planning to include season 33, somehow, into the rankings. As to teams that didn’t return to complete filming, there is precedent for handling that. What isn’t clear is how many legs we end up with even though we presumably had 12 episodes.
Stay tuned.
