SoYoung:
Very tragic elimination. This is a proof that in a race, every sconds count.

I asked Khai Shing = "After Henry & Jenn's refusal to complete the speed bump & this made a NEL when initially it was not just showed how disorganised the organisers were!
What next? The ones that argued the best/loudest are the winners of CR3? Kinda bummer, eh?"
and part of her answer, which was later taken down, goes something like this, if I remember correctly, = "...Yes, you maybe right..."

==>[P/S - My comments have been deleted too!]<==
Now we can speculate... :ascared
Also Khai Shing's initial jottings about EL made NEL was also taken down = see the last few paras = http://www.khaishing.com/2012/09/episode-5-amazing-race-china-rush-3.html
When I first read these, i thought to myself that the organisers, once they got wind of this, will surely ask her to remove these comments as it looks bad on them!
Reading Khai Shing's and Henry's blogs made me realise that the winners may be "influenced" by the organisers! Things like asking to stop racing temporarily cos of technical problems, getting the right/wrong taxi drivers onto the remote location, changing EL to NEL or NEL into EL as they are not firm on their rules, and the such! Wonder if this is also happening to TAR US edition... :duno:
redskevin88:
Has there ever been a penalty for not putting your bags at the designated area at the detour location? Personally unless it impedes another team from racing, (like for example blocking an exit or something), it shouldn't be a penalty).

Episode 5:
The google cache of Khai Shing's blog had the behind the scenes EL to NEL info still intact.
I don't have an issue with the 40 minute production delay for the mic, although it probably should have been handled with time credits instead.
I'm glad that Khai Shing clarified that there were 2 diving instructors and not just 1 like Henry said.
Episode 6:
I didn't understand the penalty for the bags. Did the clue specify this? Thirty minutes was too harsh.
SuperTux:
From what I've learnt, BBQ team (Xiao Bing & Xiao Bang) were eliminated because they didn't get visas to Taiwan. Teams had to get their visas to Taiwan by themselves. BBQ didn't do so because they didn't think they'd go to Taiwan to compete.
The "bag case" was just an excuse.
ETA: Another earlier rumor said that BBQ team were eliminated because they wanted to quit. Seemed that they had some commercial things to do.
I asked some friends in our QQ Internet chat group. The second rumor seems to be the truth. Xiao Bing and Xiao Bang had another show/advertisement to shoot.
