No? He was clearly at the roadblock at the same time as Chuck. They easily could have used the Express pass and survived. John's ego got in the way... I still can't believe he continued to be a douche and deny Jessica's suggestion of using the express Pass even when they were last.

Even if he wasn't in last, it was clear he didn't recognise the picture, why the hell did he continue going and not use the Express Pass? Remember, a saved express pass doesn't help you later on if you're eliminated :lol:

Their whole elimination made me laugh, I really felt like John got what he deserved. Such a shame Jessica actually wanted to play it smart because she seemed like a good and nice competitor :(

Also ew at the fact that Connor cheated off Winnie. Seriously, how did he not get a penalty for it? There's a difference between sharing answers and stealing them off someone else. He cleared looked at her answer when she didn't want him to.

--- End quote ---

So what is the differ between stealing a cab and that? No penalty was absolutely right.

A smart team would do anything to win even lie and cheat. Did you remember?  :lol3:

At least  he cheated but didn't lie.

Stealing cab slow other team down but what he done doesn't.

ovalorange:
The point is that Connor stole an answer for the actual task when Winnie specifically stated beforehand she wasn't willing to show him it. John wasn't able to see the surfboards teams who had previous checked in used - Phil outright denied him. So how is Connor's move any different?

Stealing a cab is fine - it's not the team's property, it's the cab driver's car and it's up to them on who they choose to take. The surfboard was Winnie's answer, she was in possession of it and chose not to share it. It's something that she owned and it was stolen from her, hence Connor and Dave ripped the girls off first place.

Really? Well I live in Indonesia but I still prefer legs in Bora-Bora because it's so beautiful there. But Bali is excellent  :wohoo:
and yeah like last season why on earth they went to Surabaya  (:;) (:;) (:;) instead of Bali

Yogyakarta I get it, they're so cultured there, but Surabaya?  :crazy:

It's like the production wanted to have a leg in Jakarta but it was too large of a city with traffics everywhere all the time that they were just like "let's move to the another large city", which is Surabaya.

As soon as John saw Chuck at the RB, he could easily just took a random surfboard, find Jessica, and run to the pit-stop. they will then used the express pass there

John was not in the same place as Jessica doing the RB

only Jessica knew they were last because Wynona told her. Remember that Chuck&Wynona checked in with Mona&Beth, Mona&Beth got 6th, and they may have bumped into Bates&Antohony somewhere or while running back to the RB location. Bates&Anthony never seemed to return so Wynona knew she and Chuck were second to last as soon as JJ arrived

John may assume that they were not last, because he saw Chuck, not knowing that he already checked in once and knew where he stood. and I think Chuck kept John in the dark saying that Bates&Anthony or one other team were still behind so John didn't use the EP and that allowed him and Wynona to check in before JJ decided to utilize their EP

wait...




nah! it's just John's ridiculous principal

(although if Chuck actually did what I thought, HATS OFF!!!!)  :bounce

But the surfboards in the pit-stop were already checked in, meaning they were the correct ones. Pam&Winnie hasn't checked in. So assuming  that Phil still didn't know that Winnie's pick was correct or not. Had she picked the wrong one, Connor's would also be wrong. That's why Connor were not penalized and John were not allowed to see the surfboards at the pit stop. Fair enough actually, for me. I don't know though maybe people here have different opinions

I never really liked Dave&Connor in the first place though. I always knew they were one of those "sneaky-let's-try-screw-another-teams" teams.turned out I am right

Don't you worry they'll get BOOTED somewhere, hopefully in Botswana, even better in Vietnam  :lol3: :lol3: :lol3:
