I did come here for the twins & am team twins but I meant now they're DOWN to the final 3. That was a run on sentence I suppose. Oops. I am aware twins didn't make final 3 lol. I've been following since the beginning & get information about every elimination down to final 3 then it stops and we get nothing and they say they won't announce winner? Then what is the purpose of the forum? It's like reading a good book that is missing the final chapter. At least people on twitter acknowledge they don't know who won so if that's the case here they need to do the same

If you read through the live sightings, It sounds like RFF's team couldn't get close enough to see what was happening at the final location. It was too secluded and they had security people keeping them away. So, I don't know for sure, but I'm fairly confident RFF doesn't know who the winner was.
It's been said elsewhere a few times, but I'll repeat it. We have had seasons where everything was revealed and once that happened, interest around here dropped off to next to nothing. Keep a little mystery at the end and it keeps people interested and engaged. We've done it this way for quite a few years and it works for RFF. I'm somewhat surprised at all the people angry about this. What makes you think we owe it to you to spell out every last detail?

They find their info on twitter then post their name on it make it look like a Reality Fan Forum exclusive.

For the record.....I was on twitter the night of the final leg.
TWITTER users simply copied and pasted almost ALL of RFF's final leg word for word....post for post.
A 'few" twitter users noted the info came from RFF, but not all. I didn't see/read any revelation about the final leg from ANY Twitter user that night that didn't come directly from THIS site.
Trying to bully the people in charge into getting your way isn't going to work. This is NOT BB19.
And, yes....I know....this if off-topic! :funny:

But I've never registered to post until today. I'm just confused as to why this is a spoiler site BUT WONT announce winners?? I've read they don't wanna spoil it for people who don't want to know, but in all fairness it says "spoiler" before you click on it SO if somebody comes to this site it's obviously for spoilers. The ones that don't want to know will not even be here. Is it because you don't really know?? I read you also said to protect sources, but how does that make sense? You haven't protected sources all season so what's the difference now? I feel like Twitter has broke more sources than here throughout the season. I've saw posts of users upset because they saw the finale unfold (which have been deleted) BUT "georgiapeach" won't let them post or say anything about it. last I checked she doesn't own you go post it on Twitter or Facebook or wherever. I'd be dang if I did all that work for her just for her to tell me to keep my mouth shut!!!! Seems like she treats some of you like slaves. I know I'll get blocked & this post will be removed because that's what Peach has seemed to do all season if you don't agree with her way of thinking. It's actually become a joke of a site & all you guys who abide by her rules look weak, if you have the ability to announce winner do it yourself instead of letting her stake claim. Whoever owns Reality Fan Forum really needs to find someone else to run this because this season has been nothing short of a joke. They find their info on twitter then post their name on it make it look like a Reality Fan Forum exclusive. There is so much wrong with this site. Goodbye for good if they get new people to run it I will be back but I will probably be banned anyways hahahaha

If anybody out there besides the production staff and the racers know who the winners are, I'd be shocked. I haven't seen anything out in the Twitterverse or Facebook, so I don't think anyone knows. As for just posting tweets and information from other social media, that's by far the best source of information. There wouldn't be much to post without that. We always strive to credit whoever put their sighting out where we could find it. I suspect there are a few cases where that wasn't done but that's the exception, not the rule. As for the protecting our sources claim that keeps getting thrown in our faces, I think that was entirely used (or nearly so) by the Jody Fans. We don't have inside sources of information that need to be protected. In 15 seasons of chasing spoilers, I've never seen any information leak from the TAR production team. Maybe somebody they hire locally will spill something on social media but not often. So, we don't have to protect somebody's job, although when a locally hired person is involved we generally haven't revealed who it was. Personally, I suspect the "protect the source" claims was just a response to our requests to know the source of the categorical assertions being made with little or no supporting evidence. By saying they had to protect their source, they didn't have to explain their claims.

Plaidmoon it's pretty obvious who won when that reporter tweeted that thing about a team he recently interviewed

Even if that team won, at this moment, this info is still a speculation/rumor, not the fact.
