TAR 24 East Coast EP 11 SHOW updates and commentary **Please read the rules**

<< < (22/24) > >>

NMC:
This leg was GREAT! I :hrt: any time they visit the UK. (Being biased as I live there) :lol:
I still prefer Leg 6, but don't know why though? ???

It was just a pity the Afghanimals got lost, because they would've beaten Brenchel hands down if they had the right directions.
Just like last season they went from 1st to last.  :groan:

Like everyone else, I too am rather pissed with Connor being allowed to do 7 RBs, but I'm not even gonna let it bother me, because there's really no point.  :lol:

I'm praying Vegas will save this season and be a deserving Final Leg, plus having David Copperfield, and a Skydive challenge that hopefully turns out as good as it looks in the preview, can't really hurt... Can it?  ???
Also loved that Mark got a quote at the finish line - "We don't know, it's somebody."  :hearts:  :lol:

Yeah, It will be amazing! :colors
But pls, don't be DC... I really hate them on this leg (and in all the race xD)... I expected that CaroJen will win their first leg. :/
I'm happy for Brenchel! :D

This is the first time since heaven knows when that a team has gone into the final leg with such a large split. We have no way of knowing if one of the apparent Roadblocks isn't being counted as part of the limit, whether the limit was higher for some reason (could be that there was flexibility this time because of Luke and Margie being cast among other things) or whether there just wasn't a limit.
I tend to think that given the effort all the teams made to keep a fairly even split until Connot did these last three roadblocks, that there was a minimum number limit this time, rather than a totally equal as possible rule as has been the case since season 6. Otherwise, we'd would have seen some sort of penalty, or instruction, or something. But given the behavior of the teams, I tend to think there was some version of that rule in place, but one that is different from what we've usually seen.  It would be a good question for someone to ask.

georgiapeach:
Haven't we had a 7 roadblock rule for awhile to account for the Express Pass and the FF? ??? Seems like we settled this the last couple of seasons.

Jobby:
I remembered it was 7, 7 too. But also remembered that in order to keep both team member alternating between a 2 RBs finale, producers will ensure that the team member who's at 6 RBs already to NOT do the penultimate leg RB so that the ratio can be even going into the finale.

Unless this has been changed, either Dave has to do all the RBs in the finale (2?), or there's only ONE RB and Dave will be specifically instructed to do it, and therefore it doesn't matter if Connor has hit 7 already.
