Things TAR shouldn't have done

<< < (18/20) > >>

Hooky:
Have an "Automatic U-turn" penalty in the first leg of TAR 18. :groan:

I was so excited that Amanda & Kris had a second chance and then horrified that it went so badly. :'(

Genius:
Speed Bump tasks shouldn't be of wildly differing levels of difficulty. Eating food vs. solving a puzzle

IKR. Or untangling ropes. -_- Or making + serving noodles in Vietnam. Or running across firecrackers. TAR 20 had fair Speedbumps that were interesting and doesn't seem ridiculously easy.

TAR 19 had washing elephants + solving puzzle which was hard.. as compared to Bill and Cathi's untangling ropes.

TAR 18's Speedbump was just lame and too easy. (Gary and Mallory, only speedbump of the season)

TAR 17: Sitting on ice chair VS cleaning Self-Propelled Howitzers... wth?
TAR 16: Had varying difficulty of SB too, smelly tea VS building trench VS throwing coins for good luck ritual...

There's just so many differing levels of difficulty and I just feel that if the task is generally lame, they should not allow it..

For example, rather than making Josh and Brent EAT TURKISH ICE CREAM, they can make them learn and serve the ICE CREAM to 5 to 10 people. That would make the task so much more interesting!

Speed Bumbs are a freacking bad penalty!!!! Marked for Elimination is way better.

I disagree, It was way to difficult of a penalty. I think speedbump is the fairest penalty the race has had.
