Remember in the early season's when there were no RB limits? The stronger team member just did them all...

When you have an ARI instead of a RB it clearly can benefit an unbalanced team.

Would be interesting to know if all the ARI's were RB's...

WHO would have done each task?

You are talking the Baharin leg right?

I guess
Weighting log : Cody / Henry / Kristi / Alex
Pottery : Jessica / Evan / Jen / Conor
Milking Camel : Cody / Evan / Jen / Conor (As shown in the episode)

It somehow fitted a double RB pattern lol

TheRabbi:
Cody and Jessica weren't even selected until 2 weeks before filming. The route and tasks had to be locked down before that time. I don't think this conspiracy theory holds any weight. The Bahrain leg was certainly very odd though: is that the first leg ever without either a detour or RB?

Nah, the finale leg of Tar 29 had done this format before

Marionete:
What about non-finale legs?
I'm pretty sure it was a first in the American edition.

Agree with no conspiracy theory. That is not what I was referring to. It DOES make a difference in who does what and the importance of that.  Not having a RB balance takes away another important skill on TAR.

I really liked most all the tasks this season except the FaceOff . Mostly challenging, relevant, and well thought out. But RB's need to come back immediately.
