TAR 30: Speculation and Discussion of the **SPOILERS** WORKZONE!
Realitytvfan:
I forgot about Phil mentioning something about the fear of heights. Do you remember exactly what it was that he said?
Didn`t he also say something about a twist? What was that?
theschnauzers:
I don’t have the time or energy right now to give this the fuller treatment it would deserve, but what if the one sourced information from a confidential source has to have an independently derived second source to use and confirm the original source? No matter how reliable and trustworthy the original source may be, one will want to preserve that original, ultra-reliable confidential for later and other use. Lawyers see this, law enforcement see this, journalists see this, investigators see this.
That is the reality of this. Back during Nixon’s time, Ben Bradley, then the Executive Editor, insisted of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein that any confidential information had to have two independent confirmed sources to any fact they reported. You can watch the film,”All The President’s Meet or read the source book to see how that works.
In any event, I believe we’re waiting for that reliable second source.
Seastars:
They were THERE. It was posted here that they weren't telling "for security."
"They" and subsequent statements make it obvious that several were there.
Also, as for "why do you want to know?"
Hello! This is a fan SPOILER site, that's why we've been here all season, for exactly this. Not for the winners, but at least for the location. Tasks are a bonus.

It's not about photos or wanting to chase around teams or even wanting to know who won. It's just the name of some a place in the San Francisco Bay Area.
It's not going to compromise anyone or any thing. The Race results aren't going to change. No one is going to make or lose money off of it. Almost every other aspect of the finale, INCLUDING placement at what was described as the last Route Marker before the "final location" was posted LIVE in the early hours of Tuesday morning. Yet the location of the actual Finish Line, (read: a few words, a name. Not video evidence. Not an autobiography of the person who stood on the southeast corner of the location 10 years ago.) is being guarded like a national security secret using flimsy excuses that include things people aren't even asking for.
People would be more understanding if from the start it was "We won't post the Finish Line location to keep it a surprise for the airing." or "We want to sit on this RFF-exclusive information that no one else has as long as possible." Not this runaround and excuses of "we have to go through everything" as if the posting of the location required triangulating Bertram Van Munster's cellphone.

JUST STOP.
WE ALL HAVE REAL LIFE RESPONSIBILITIES.
WE ARE ALL EXHAUSTED.
I for one am ill. 6 Hours of sleep in 60 hours will do that to you.
The rest of the info will come WHEN we have as team reviewed what we have and confirm all the details. We want accuracy, not speed.
I don't want to see any more about this. It will come when OUR TEAM is done. Not before..
I HOPE that will be by tomorrow, but no guarantees.
I really don't want to come on here hoping to see intelligent discussion about the race (ON TOPIC maybe?) and read a bunch of whining.
So please...go do something else. And stop complaining when you have NO idea what is involved.
The RFF team worked their butts off for you. What happened to : Great job, guys! Thank you so much! We appreciate your efforts?
Chill Pills all around!
AND NO MORE. Go complain somewhere else. :groan:
