Title: TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**
Post by: Zack. on April 11, 2008, 02:56:10 PM
As the title says, what do you want to see in future editions of TAR?   :jam:

- Per georgiapeach, route maps and other large images should not be posted in-thread; a link to the image file should be fine, as well as this site (http://www.travellerspoint.com/).
- It should go without saying but this is a spoiler-free thread. If you're thinking of posting something that specifically refers to a currently-airing or currently-filming (be it the American version or any from another country) season DON'T. You should instead use the relevant spoiler thread(s).

Well I'd like them to visit*
*    Indonesia (I've been there a number of times and it really is no more dangerous than many other                 places they've visited)
*    Antarctica - so the race can finally say it has visited EVERY continent
*    Eastern Russia (siberia) - the whole north of asia has never been visited and some of the views are breathtaking
*    Greenland (if they don't go to antarctica, it wouldn't be a good idea to visit them in the same season)

Usually the race head south or west from america, except for season 10 which headed east to china. I would like to see the first leg head north to Canada and then head east to siberia in the next.

As for the taxi following issue, they should ban it. Its fine to ask for directions, or even get a local 'guide' but all the taxi following does make for a boring show.

I would love the race to go to Indonesia! I would also like to see Cambodia or Southern Thailand (Phuket or places around there)

We need less teams from California, and less dating couples

I'd gauge locations based on those I've read about since I was a kid...

The race has done cities well, but completely in agreeance on Antarctica & Indonesia!

Peru - They've missed all the epic locations: Machu Picchu, Nazca Lines, Lake Titicaca...
The Amazon
Kenya
Greek Islands
Jerusalem & Jordan - I know it isn't 100% safe, but nowhere in the world is...
The Silk Route
Southwest China
Nepal
Easter Island

Hey, that's enough adventure for an entire season!

Places I would love to see are Prague - Southeastern Asia - Indonisia - Adelaid - Island Locations (Barbados for example).

Locations - How about places that none of the TAR editions (ours, Asia, etc.) have not visited. There are thousands of beautiful places around the world that could be visited. Thousands of socio-economic sob stories that could be explored. I am very tired of India. Phuket, again? TARA seems to allows be there and now TAR. Australia is simply gorgeous and I would love to visit but Papua/New Guinia is right there. (Although, I think TAR has been there). More African (obscure) countries. Togo, anyone? South America. The freakin' Amazon?

Twists - Keep things simplistic as far as the race. Make the clues more difficult. No more make your way to Red Square and find the guy dressed like Breshnev. How about "Make your way to the area once covered in woodland buildings that an Ivan III edict changed into a major marketplace, then find the gentlemen dressed as the premier that served Russia at the same time as Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, Carter and Reagan." Make it a much more thoughtful race where locals can provide more than pointing to a place.

Teams - My brother and I  :lol: :lol:

Antarctica would be a good place, even if they didn't really do anything there they should still take them out there.

I'd be happy with the teams going to antarctica to perform a roadblock, then heading back out to south america or australia for the rest of the leg (bunched or otherwise)

Post by: Coutzy on January 16, 2009, 09:20:28 AM
A couple of new twists I want to see.

The first I call the 'shuffle'

In this twist (which I already know the fans will hate) all the teams are randomly reassigned until the end of the leg.

The team that arrives last at the end of this leg is eliminated, along with their partners, regardless of their finish. This makes the leg a double elimination.

After the eliminations, teams return to normal.

The second twist I want to see is a rule that stops teams checking in without their possessions (I don't know why but this irritates me.)

The new rule would state that a team may only leave a Pit Stop with the items they brought in to it, so if a team really wants to leave their bags behind to go the little bit faster, they must deal with the consequences.

Of course, their items would be returned to them upon completion of the race.

I've often wondered if, sometimes, the "Additional Information" in the clue says, "You may leave your belongings in the marked car."

Post by: Coutzy on January 16, 2009, 09:36:32 AM
More likely the clue says "You must leave your belongings in the car otherwise the camera can't get proper shots of you running and that will just ruin the show."

Hate the first as much as I hate the Intersection, love the second. And yes, clues do sometimes say you can leave your packs...but sometimes they are taking a risk dropping them in the run for the finish line...

Johnathan: Just drop it!
Victoria: But they're going to take it!!!! JOOOOHHHNNNNNN!!!! :'(

As for a new type of route marker: Traffic Light!
In this route marker one team can force another to stop at a traffic light. The team that stops at the Traffic Light has to open one of three clues. Inside each envelope is one of the following.
Red.- Turn over an Hourglass (Yield)
Yellow.- Perform an additional task (Speedbump)
Green.- Go directly to the Pit Stop (Fast Forward)

it can be used both with good or bad intentions with probabilities of backfiring.

I like that idea.

It allows alliances to actually work, although at the same time backfire.

It would also be the first time a team could directly help another team.

Post by: apskip on January 18, 2009, 02:10:03 PM
That's a good one, cdfe88. I had no knowledge about Jarvis Island. Technically it would qualify as a tiny spec of the U.S. on the equator. However, it would impossible to land any airplanes on it because it is uninhabited and it would take too long to being Amazing Racers and produciton in from another island like Samoa that looks on my map to be pover 500 miles away.
Here is a dscription of Jarivs Island for those as ignorant as I was:

Jarvis Island (also formerly known as Bunker Island) is an uninhabited 4.5 square kilometer coral island located in the South Pacific Ocean at 0°22′S 160°01′W Coordinates: 0°22′S 160°01′W about halfway between Hawaii and the Cook Islands. It is an unincorporated territory of the United States administered by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service of the United States Department of the Interior as part of the National Wildlife Refuge system. Unlike most coral atolls, the lagoon on Jarvis is wholly dry.

there's also Baker and Howland Islands, and from what I read, Baker could be a possible place to finish

cdfe88, Howland Island is a remote possibilty. That is because "There are no harbors or docks. The reefs may pose a hazard. There is one boat landing area along the middle of the sandy beach on the west coast together with a crumbling day beacon." Of course, its claim to fame is as the island Amelia Earhart was desperately searching for on her ill-fated circumnavigation flight of 1937.

Baker Island is an uninhabited coral atoll. It is theroetically possible to do something there, the probability is too low to worry about. Ending on/near the equator in U.S. territory has never been and is unlikely to ever be a priority of World Race Productions.

Europe:
Denmark (how is possible they haven't been there yet)
Belgium (same as Denmark)
Czech Republic (same as Denmark and Belgium)
Latvia
Estonia (Old town of Tallinn is amazing)
Monaco
Luxemburg
Bulgaria (maybe they go here next season as they're going now to neighbor Romania)
Madrid, Spain
Northern parts of Norway, Sweden and Finland (also Lapland, lots of extreme stuff to do)
Albania
Slovenia
Serbia
Montenegro
Bosnia-Herzegovina
Cyprus
Greek islands
I don't think they're going to Belarus because it's not safe place for American tourists with expensive cameras to run around stupidly. Same thing with Moldova.

Asia:
Yerevan, Armenia
Baku, Azerbaijan
Bahrain
Bangladesh (if they want to go to India in future thay can go here as it's almost same)
Brunei
Indonesia (Bali anyone?)
Israel (Tel Aviv and Eilat are safe)
Jordan (Ancient city of Petra is near Eilat, Israel; could be combined)
Kyrgyzstan
Maldives
Nepal
Qatar
Turkey (They were in Istanbul but Turkey has beautiful Mediterranean coast)
Uzbekistan (Samarkand was important city along the Silk Route)

Americas:
All the little island nations in the Caribbean (except Jamaica nad Puerto Rico and they probably can't go to Cuba)
Belize
Manaus, Brazil in the Amazonas
Guyana
French Guyana

Oceania:
Fiji
Papua New Guinea
French Polynesia (e.g. Tahiti)
Micronesia
Palau
Tonga
Northern Mariana Islands, USA
Nauru

Africa:
Algeria
Ghana
Kenya
Seychelles
Togo
Benin
Cape Verde
Mali
I think those are the safest countries TAR haven't visited yet

North Korea wouldn't be a difficult place for multiple eliminations... By Joab's logic, that should make the show very successful...

Armed or Unarmed
In this Detour, teams must work to disable one of two potentially dangerous weapons. In Armed, teams must disarm a nuclear missile, using the help of technical plans written in Korean. In Unarmed, teams engage in hand-to-hand combat with a border guard trained in Taekwondo, who will hand teams the next clue after he has been subdued.

Disabling a nuclear missile requires little physical strength, but the countdown time is limited and translating the Korean instructions could be confusing. Engaging a border guard is physically draining, but teams who complete it quickly can find themselves... flooring the competition. (Since Phil is starting to use Allan Wu's puns...)

I wish no team was actually eliminated, thats not asking too much is it? I'm such a dork! I DO care about these people  :'(

The show wouldn't be a success without elimination though. :duno:

Speaking of elimination - don't these racers ever take bathroom breaks? I thought this was reality TV - lets see some reality! :-[
Maybe the real reason Brad and Victoria missed their flight is because someone had to make a "pitstop" in the airport? I want to know if that's the case!
Sounds like the age old question about Jack Bauer in 24. Does Jack ever go to the bathroom? Does he ever eat? Does he ever drink? :lol:

That's an impressive list of places you have for AR15, Neobie. however, you can away it's lack of authenticity when you have Krakatoa on the list. It's part of an Indonesian national park, but nobody lives there for obvious reasons. If you take off Krakatoa and substitute something believable, then you have a viable race.

Do you plan on getting to Easter Island from Australia via the western route(shorter and quicker) or the eastern route?

Nah, Krakatoa's just a Pit Stop - planning to have most of the leg in Jakarta (shoe factories, Dutch schooners, spice trade...), then have teams take a bus to Merak for the Pit Stop on a boat. And I remember that LAN Sydney-Santiago flight that connects to Easter Island!

Oh God I'm so totally overthinking this.
Title: Re: TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**
Post by: apskip on March 03, 2009, 08:14:33 AM
Neobie,
You can get there either west to east or east to west, but your thoughts on using the former are the more logical. I haven't made any actual measurements but since we know that it's about 5000 miles from Santiago to Auckland and say 2500 miles from Santiago to Easter island.  From Sydney to Johannesburg is about 7000 miles, from Joahnnesburg to Buenos Aires is about 6000 miles and from Buenos Aires to Santiago is about 1000 miles. That is a total of approximately 17,000 miles going east to west. Going west to east it's one of those "you can't get there form here" exercises. Flying to Easter Island form Sydney requires either stopping in Santiago or stopping in Los Angeles. The good news is that it's less than 10,000 miles to do so, over 7000 miles less than the east to west route.

Just bringing this thread alive! :jumpy:

Would the Producers and BvM consider this for the next few seasons (even just a leg!)?  ;D  :hearts:

4 CONTINENTS, 9 COUNTRIES, MORE THAN 40,000 MILES

1 USA to Milan - Como/Brunate -Trieste, Italy (North Italy looks good!)

2 Trieste, Italy to Ljubljana - Bled, Slovenia (New Place!)

3 Bled, Slovenia to Thessaloniki, Greece (Greece is worth visiting again!)

4 Thessaloniki, Greece to Istanbul, Turkey (I know this has been done, but Istanbul's so big, I don't mind them having another leg there)

5 Istanbul, Turkey to Cesme - Selcuk - Sirince, Turkey (At first sight of Sirince in the net, I fell in love with the place! - I know many would too!)

6 Sirince, Turkey to Bangalore, India (India's a seasonal pilgrimage of TAR... so why not this place?)

7 Bangalore, India to Werribee-Melbourne Australia (One city I like to see visited by the Race!)

8 Werribee-Melbourne, Australia to Devonport - Launceston - Forth, Tasmania, Australia (The Island's already great just by looking at the net, what can I say more?)

9 Forth, Tasmania, Australia to Yogyakarta-Prambanan, Indonesia (Visiting Borobudur Temple or Lara Jonggrang in Candi would be such a sight!)

10 Yogyakarta-Prambanan, Indonesia to Ubud, Bali, Indonesia (Specifically the Elephant Caves and the Culture, Don't forget visiting the Bombing Memorial!)

11 Ubud, Bali Indonesia to Fukuoka - Kitakyushu - Okayama, Japan (Japan via Train! Woohoo!)

12 Return to the United States

Once TPTB decides to chill out about secrecy and allows teams to take public transport, here's one suggestion that allows for some strategy:

1. Impose a monetary quota for travel/reliance on taxis. This doesn't have to be shown to the audience.
"You have $200 for this leg of the race. Of this, you may spend no more than $50 on taxis."

2. Journeys that require taxi travel (for example, to out-of-the-way locations) does not count towards the quota. Again, this can be hidden from the audience.

3. Taxi travel/following thus acts as a Fast Forward. Taxis competing with buses competing with trains = lower costs + chances of natural bunching + local interaction + good TV.

4. Decisions to take public transport can be simplified through editing into "we don't have enough for taxis" or "we want to save money".



Speaking of secrecy, TPTB is way up their asses trying to avoid spoilers. At least four reports of rude production staff (Moscow, Bangkok-Phuket, Guilin, Beijing-Tokyo), fake task set-ups (Gypsy villages, Macau dragon boat associations), chasing the public and staff out of public areas, over-reliance on taxis... It's not like we can't dig up the spoilers anyway, OK? Disappointing. *angry thumbs down*

Post by: Hooky on April 02, 2009, 07:00:50 PM
Yeah, I agree. Authentic tasks are far better than ones made up just for the race. If people don't want the show spoiled, they don't have to read the spoilers. Even knowing the spoilers it is still fun to watch! :jam:
Title: Re: TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**
Post by: apskip on April 03, 2009, 11:06:49 AM
Neobie,

I see a much easier way to get the results you desire and me too. Simply edict that no teams may ever follow a taxi on foot or in their own vehicle or in some other type of vehicle. The other thing I desperately wish for is the end of all begging. Teams stock up on cash early in the race by begging and then can hire whatever they need later. This has distorted the race to give the beggars the edge. There should be no begging.
Title: Re: TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**
Post by: Coutzy on April 03, 2009, 12:10:47 PM
I think they could improve the race by putting a Fast Forward and a U-Turn/Yield on every leg of the race (except the first)

Then it might actually come down to a decision about when it would be most advantageous, as opposed to only getting one and therefore having this consideration taken away.

My biggest tip would have to be to use both Yields and U-Turns interchangeably, but have them both under the same "courtesy of" sticker (Get rid of the Blind U-Turn, it didn't do it for me)

I'd say that both had their own sticker like in TARA3, also IMO the Blind twist was good, think about it, most people were afraid to use theYield/U-Turn to avoid being targeted, this way it might be easier for it to be used.

For the Fast Forward I'd suggest to put the task right next to the cluebox but make it really hard. Since most of the time teams don't attempt the fast forward because they're all afraid someone else might have done it, the Fast Forward has turned into an undesirable task. Just make it easier for teams to know if it was already taken or not

The FAST FORWARD has become much less desirable than it was in the say first 10 seasons of the Amazing Race. The reason is that sometimes the tasks are onerous (tattoos, eating challenges) and the advantage gained has been drastically reduced.

Neobie,

I am not saying the FAST FORWARD isn't still desirable, just that it's less desirable. Intersected Uchenna/Joyce and Oswald/Danny won the 2 tower step count in Krakow for a gain of 64 minutes (not counting the 4 hour bus differential which preceded the FAST FORWARD). Oswald/Danny won only a 102 minute finish over Dustin/Kandice in Hong Kong after their Kai Tak airport stunt. Nicolas/Donald won 104 minutes over Nathan/Jennifer in Empoli. Ken/Tina for 136 over Terence/Sarah  for the Auckland Tower climb.Nick/Starr get only 86 minutes for their Kazakh feast. The two unused Fast Forwards that I can remember (Trakai Castle in Lithuania and in Phuket) have no relevance except that they underscore how teams are perceiving moer risk and less reward in going for a FAST FORWARD.

You bet and he wasn't Kenyan although Idi Amin Dada did spell a bit of time (I guess in exile) in Kenya. He is clearly Ugandan, so Ken needs to either substitute Kampala for Nairobi or find a suitable Kenyan dictator (I considered several but none has been bad enough to make this cut).

Yes, he was in Uganda, but, he was in exile in Kenya. Uganda is considered unsafe, Kenya is considered relatively safe which is why I chose it over Amin's native country.

Ok, maybe I should reconsider that safe part for Kenya. From the Department of State:

Quote
KENYA

November 14, 2008

The U.S. Department of State warns U.S. citizens of the risks of travel to Kenya.  American citizens in Kenya and those considering travel to Kenya should evaluate their personal security situation in light of continuing threats from terrorism and the high rate of violent crime.  This replaces the Travel Warning of August 22, 2008, to note increased security concerns in northeast Kenya near the Somali border.

The U.S. Government continues to receive indications of potential terrorist threats aimed at American, Western, and Kenyan interests in Kenya.  Terrorist acts could include suicide operations, bombings, kidnappings, attacks on civil aviation, and attacks on maritime vessels in or near Kenyan ports.  Many of those responsible for the attacks on the U.S. Embassy in 1998 and on a hotel in Mombasa in 2002 remain at large and continue to operate in the region.  In November 2008, armed groups based in Somalia crossed into Kenya near the town of El Wak and kidnapped two Westerners.  Travel by U.S. Embassy personnel to border areas of Kenya northeast of the town of Wajir has been restricted until further notice.

Violent and sometimes fatal criminal attacks, including armed carjackings and home invasions/burglaries, can occur at any time and in any location, particularly in Nairobi.  As recently as June 2008, U.S. Embassy personnel were victims of carjackings.  In the short-term, the continued displacement of thousands of people by the recent civil unrest combined with endemic poverty and the availability of weapons could result in an increase in crime, both petty and violent.  Kenyan authorities have limited capacity to deter or investigate such acts or prosecute perpetrators.

American citizens in Kenya should be extremely vigilant, particularly in public places frequented by foreigners such as clubs, hotels, resorts, upscale shopping centers, restaurants, and places of worship.  Americans should also remain alert in residential areas, schools, and at outdoor recreational events, and should avoid demonstrations and large crowds.

Americans who travel to or reside in Kenya are encouraged to register through the State Department’s travel registration website, https://travelregistration.state.gov.  By registering, American citizens make it easier for the Embassy to contact them in case of emergency.  Americans without Internet access may register directly with the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi.  The U.S. Embassy is located on United Nations Avenue, Gigiri, Nairobi, Kenya; telephone (254) (20) 363-6000; fax (254) (20) 363-6410.  In the event of an after-hours emergency, the Embassy duty officer may be contacted at (254) (20) 363-6170.  The Embassy home page is http://kenya.usembassy.gov.

Updated information on travel and security in Kenya may be obtained from the Department of State by calling 1-888-407-4747 toll free in the United States and Canada, or for callers outside the United States and Canada, a regular toll line at 1-202-501-4444.  For further information, please consult the Country Specific Information for Kenya and the Worldwide Caution, which are available on the Bureau of Consular Affairs Internet website at http://travel.state.gov.

I don't think Uganda is too terribly unsafe though. There ar ecertain areas which should be avoided but if the teams went through the countryside I don't think it'd be that bad. From Wikitravel:

Quote
Uganda has been home to some of the more gruesome atrocities in modern African history since its independence in 1962, particularly under the heinous dictator Idi Amin, but in the years since 1987 things have consistently improved. Today, in 2009, the single party state is relatively stable after 25 years of stereotypically 'strong man' rule by Yoweri Museveni. Kampala has changed into a major center of East African trade.

Travel north to Murchison Falls National Park and Ajai Game Reserve is perfectly safe. Note that overlanders from Tanzania and Kenya regularly make the trip routing through [[Jinja.

As in any urban area, Kampala can be dodgy. One is well advised to remain in tourist areas, but sensibly garbed visitors not dangling the latest cameras, flashy jewellery or bulging bags are not likely to draw unwanted attention to themselves. However, any Caucasians walking in the street stand out and are likely to be stared at openly, which may cause discomfort to those unaccustomed to travelling in Africa. What little begging exists is some of the most polite and inoffensive to be found in African cities. Small children are sadly becoming a nuisance in some rural spots frequented by tourists doling out sweets and coins, but nowhere near the swarming throng one can attract in many cities around the world.

In the gorilla tracking region of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park near the border with the DRC there was one incident in the late 1990's in which bandits attacked a group of tourists and killed several people. Since then there have been no incidents and all groups now go out with armed guards (which was not the case before). There is a visible security presence in the region, but this is a preventative measure rather than a response to anything specific.

Dr. Rox, although Stalin was from Georgia, his focus was the entire Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The centerpoint of governement for the U.S. S.R. was clearly Moscow, its capital. Just because Volgograd was renamed in Stalin's honor (by Stalin himself in 1925) and was later renamed back to the original name does not mean that he had any special relationship to Volgograd. As best I can tell, he did not other than during the battle of Stalingrad where he as the leader of the Soviet military took a personal interest in Stalingrad's survival.

I have a gut feel that Kolkata's next in line again at the "TAR'S yearly pilgrimage to India"... I want them to go to Bangladesh though, or Guangzhou China or even Xiamen or Shanghai... though Thailand's overrated as well as Russia already...

Mooyou(thanks for the tip on m error),
The fact is that Kolkata has been used before. Sure, as a huge urban center in India the amazing Race could get stunning sights on camera. However, these huge Indian cities have never been on an amazing Race and deserve to before any other city repeats:

Bangalore
Hyderabad
Goa (a small state, not a large city)
Ahmadabad
Shimla (a tourist area formerly known as Simla, not urban)

Hi Apskip! It's me and not cdfe88 who thought of Kolkata ^_^

If were talking about India, I'm thinking of Amritsar, in Punjab the near Pakistan border and where the Sikhs are could actually be a good place...  :lol:

I hate it when all of those beautiful locations are barred because of wars, pandemic flu seasons, etc... Oh well... I guess there should be extra effort for TAR to find new locations as well as better tasks especially the next season...

hey what about Myanmar (Burma)?

there's a couple good locations, like Yangon and Mandalay

or is it considered an unsafe country by the U.S. department of whatever its called...?

i'd look it up myself, but i lost the link to the site that marks countries safe to travel to or not, and as you can tell i have no idea what that department is... is it the department of safety?

Myanmar is considered unsafe. In fact, the U.S. Department of State discourages all travel there.

I agree that the yield/u-turn should be on each leg as it was in the first few seasons.
If cost is an issue we can continue to have only 2 u-turns and the others to be yields
as they are inexpensive. When this is reintroduced I would like to suggest two other
twists that can also be interchangeable with the yield.

1. GIVE WAY - One team can choose to make another team behind them 'give-way.' This
means that team must let all other teams pass them before resuming the race. The catch
is that the team that uses it is marked for elimination (they must arrive first at the pitstop or
incur a 30 minute penalty). There is a huge amount of risk involved but if the team that uses
it can maintain a first place position throughout the leg, they will greatly slow down the team
of their choice.

2. NO RIGHT TURN - One team can choose the detour for any team behind them. This means
that when that team reaches the 'no right turn' marker which also has the detour clue box next
to it, must complete the detour that is chosen for them. The team that uses must try to chose the
detour they believe will be the hardest for the other team to complete.

Whats a race without a bit of risk. Anywhere

Quote from: http://wikitravel.org/en/Sudan
WARNING: Travel in Sudan outside Khartoum and its suburb Omdurman is considered dangerous. Two borderline civil wars continue to see violence, in Southern Sudan and particularly in Darfur, while extremist groups target foreign visitors for attacks and kidnapping, particularly in the Upper Nile regions targetting foreigners related to the oil industry. The U.S. State Department has renewed its annual travel advisory for Sudan, and continues to recommend against all non-essential travel to the country.

Montreal.......

I would like to see TAR use this wonderful city. Lots of cultural stuff there. It could  be the first leg after leaving LAX or could be the next to last leg, before ending in some city on the East Coast, besides NYC or Miami, for a change. TAR has used every single major city on the West Coast, except Los Angeles and San Diego for a finish line.

Boston, Philly, DC, or Atlanta (Peach at the Finish Line).

Prague would be nice too.

Dr. Rox, perhaps you missed Amazing Race 8. The penultimate city was Montreal, but teams only had time to search Expos stadium for plane tickets and then get to the airport for a charter flight early morning to Toronto. I agree that Montreal makes a good place for an Amazing Race stop, but so would Vancouver, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Regina and Halifax. I expect we will see other Canadian cities before we see Montreal again.

My attempt at a new CBS-friendly race:

Start City: Atlanta, Georgia
Leg 1: to Gibraltar (I always though this could be done like TARA, where the Detour is in Start City, then there's a RB/Pit Stop in Gibraltar)
Leg 2: to Leplis Magna, Libya
Leg 3: to Innsbruck, Austria to Vaduz, Liechtenstein
Leg 4: to Cape Town, South Africa (and for added fun, don't tell them where to fly from. Liechtenstein had no airports but train service to Zurich, Vienna, Milan, Munich and other cities in that region)
Leg 5: still in Cape Town, South Africa (making up for the lack of Africa in most races)
Leg 6: to Victoria, Seychelles
Leg 7: to Ahmedabad, India (either with a TBC in Mumbai or transit through Mumbai)
Leg 8: to Kuala Belait, Brunei
Leg 9: to Sydney, Australia (I can't believe we've had only one half leg in Sydney)
Leg 10: to Nadi, Fiji
Finish city: St. Louis, Missouri (Midwest <3)

Inspired by Joab in the hope of an epic Singapore leg. Sucksters claim it's impossible, but we could try! (Oh since we're bored anyway.)

Detour: Food in Mouth or Foot in Mouth

Really, if there's anything that makes Singapore unique, it's that it can cobble together so many different ethnicities and cultures and have everyone actually get along... This Detour is a testament to the state's (relative) success.

I demand that any Singapore leg be run entirely on public transport.

Food in Mouth
Travel by public transport to three different locations and finish a serving of local food:

Progress from relatively easy to the tourist-killer... Teams get the next instructions after finishing at each location.

"Sambal Belacan" at Kampung Glam
  Shrimp paste with rice
  Influence: Malay
"Fish Head Curry" (written in Tamil, geez I have no idea!) at Little India
  Indian spices and the weirdness of eating a fish's head
  Influence: S Indian
"榴槤" at Geylang
  Durian, well we all know this one
  Influence: SE Asian in general, but the Geylang shops are Chinese

Foot in Mouth
Travel by public transport to three different locations using audio messages on a cell phone:

Locals may not listen in on the phone, so teams would have to convey the message orally. Problem is, teams must find someone of the correct race/ethnicity to be able to translate the message, and that's if they can pronounce it correctly. Cue absolute communication breakdown.

"Rumah Baba di Jalan Neil" (Baba House on Neil St)
  Peranakan terrace-house, built 1860s
  Language: Peranakan Malay
"Oo Chia Zui Thien Hock Keng" (Temple of Heavenly Happiness in Chinatown)
  Oldest Hokkien temple in Singapore, built 1821
  Language: Hokkien Chinese
"Boon Keng Wadda Gurdwara" (Central Sikh Temple in Boon Keng)
  Oldest Sikh temple in Singapore, built 1912
  Language: Punjabi

My Roadblock is a cruel poke at the Government, but that's for another day.

possible cast (not necessarily my wishlist):

1. young dating couple
2. young dating couple take 2  fit middle-aged F/F team (a la Bowling Moms)
3. fighting couple (married or dating)
4. older dating couple (grandparents?)
5. homosexual couple (haven't seen one of those in a while) (male or female)
6. siblings (very popular in recent seasons)
7. siblings part 2 (twins please...)
8. parent/child (also very popular in recent races)
9. other possible family relationships (i.e. cousins, grandparent/child, aunt or uncle/niece or nephew)
10. best friends
11. best friends II
12. co-workers (love that they had one in the Israeli version)

i really hope that my guess for number 9 isn't cousins, since i want to use the absence of a cousin team since Charla/Mirna to my advantage  when I apply with my cousin (unfortunately, we have to wait a couple years before we are able to apply....)

My wishlist for teams:

1. F/F - 20's
2. M/F - Alpha couple in their 20's
3. M/F - Couple, mid-aged
4. F/F - 30's or 40's, possibly lesbian, doesn't matter.
5. M/M - Brothers, haven't seen a good bro team since Brian/Greg in TAR7.
6. M/F - Father/daughter team, but not one having issues like Ron & Christina. End result was good, but it was tiresome to see dad beat up on daughter.

Go from there.

My Wishlist for TAR 15 Teams:

1. A Lesbian Mom/Daughter (We had a gay Father/Son, why not this one? This would rock!)
2. A Step parent and step child - similar to TARI
3. Grandmother/Grandson/daughter team...
4. M/M brothers, I have to agree with TARAsia Fan
5. Another Asian team!
- The two "whole Asian" teams (12, 14) rocked so much, I wonder what makes Asian women stay in the race longer? Could it be because of the stereotyping or the tradition and culture imposed?
6. A sibling team with ages of 40 and above
7. Another set of Married Parents, loveable ones like Teri and Ian and Kentina
8. Travel Agents or Owners of Travel Agencies...! That would be epic!
9. RFF Forumers... Who doesn't?
10. An engaged team of the third sex...
11. Doctors ^_^

Teams with stories to tell (at most one per season please, we're not going for contrived!):

Cousins - One a first-generation US immigrant, the other someone from back home.
City mouse shows country mouse the values of an American, while country mouse reminds city mouse of his heritage. Also, culture shock within a team. (Hell, that's my one shot at making the race. Call me CBS!)

Siblings - One born to the parents, another adopted.
Pair learns to accept each other's differences, and understand that they're not too different after all.

Friends - Have been friends online for years, but have hardly met in person. 21st century equivalent of pen-pals.
Little lies come back to haunt the relationship, as the duo realize that coming clean to each other is the best way to move forward.

I thought of another thing just like Yield and U-Turn(A NEW TWIST)

Well I havn't named it yet,so you guys can help me figure it out!

So it's just like a Yield and U-Turn on how you use it,
it is right after a Roadblock, and if your (name of this thing)ed,
the person that didn't do the Roadblock, have to do it.
SO IT'S MAKES BOTH TEAMMATES TO DO THE ROADBLOCK!

I don't think that will work with Roadblocked because the number of roadblocker per team member is restricted at half (6 for each in the case of a 12 leg race.) So if we have an extra roadblock and both players have completed all roadblocks by the final roadblock, do they have to forfeit?

Probably they would have to take a 4 hour penalty for not completing the Roadblock. It would stink to be on the receiving end of that game special!

I want the Races to be some form of "Back To Basics". No useless twists. Back to many Fast Forwards. 13 legs. Just at least once. I mean, I know I'm hosting a future race with ORG teams, ORG legs & ORG twists (Roundabout, Fork In The Road, Roadblock Setting, Traffic Light, Block U-Turn, etc. - all w/ permission from the original hosts, of course :D), but that's just for ORGs. For TV Races, I want something simple. I miss the glorious TAR 1/TAR 2/TAR 3/TAR 4/TAR 5 (sans Yield & lack of FFs) days.

I'd have to disagree. I'd rather have less teams and more NELs in order to get to know them better. What's the point of having that many teams if most of them will be forgotten once the real drama appears?

I want to see an Amazing Race with zero NELs. That would make a fine race, where every leg counts for sure and most teams have to be competing hard end to end. I discount the "getting-to-know" value of NELs, cdfe88. All NELs in Amazing Races (but not Amazing Race Asias) are positioned at or after the 6th leg, so you already know all remining teams well by then!

In conjunction with this I want to see 13 teams so there will be 11 legs or maybe 1 or 2 more teams and an equivalent number of extra legs.

Exactly right! That's what has happened to teams like Anthony & Stephanie and Marianna & Julia in the recent seasons with poor editing balance.

I think there should be 11 or 12 teams, but the non-elims should be early in the race, so we get to the the early boot teams, too.

And of course, at least 12 legs! Are you listening, CBS? :waves:

11 or 12 teams is always good. I can't remember less than 11 besides the Family Edition but maybe it was in the All-Stars season too.

And CBS better be listening but I know they're prepping for BB11.   :jumpy:

I highly doubt Nigeria will not be visited this season or next season!  Nigeria has alot of problems right now and travel there is highly not recommended by the US State Dept, speaking of the State Dept, I think travel to Colombia is possible despite the travel warnings.  Colombia is an US ally and travel is only dangerous if you venture outside the safe major cities like Bogota and Medellin.  I think the State Dept travel warnings haven't been updated in a while.  Also the fears about Swine Flu affecting the filming of TAR15 is highly impossible, as long as the teams, crew, and other people involved in the race follow health guidelines like washing their hands and sanitizing them, infection from Swine Flu is very unlikely to happen.  My only wishlist for this season or next season is to visit newer countries and former countries, but newer areas within them like Sardinia in Italy, the Greek island of Crete, Wales/N. Ireland in the UK, Hainan/Wuhan in China. Even Lake Baikal in Siberia as well as Vladivostok in the Russian Far East.  Also for teams I like to see a multiracial team (dating, married, best friends), as well as Native American, and Motorheads/Skatepunks.  A new twist that could be cool if they introduce a new task choice like "Rewind" where a team has to return the beginning of the leg and do all the tasks again before continuing on.  That would be cool to see as the opposite of "Fastforward" At least I am happy to hear about TAR16 has been given to go ahead.

Sorry, if you have been watching/reading the news, Zimbabwe still has some problems with their newly elected-government right now.  I also don't expect to see the race visit Congo (formerly Zaire), Angola, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Somalia, Cote d'Ivoire, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Chad, Central African Republic, Burundi, Sudan, and Eritrea!  These places still have problems such as civil war, government disputes, and corruption right now so we could still see the race visit countries like Algeria, Libya, Djibouti, Seychelles, Comoros, Swaziland, Lesotho, Gabon, Eqtl. Guinea, Cameroon, Malawi, Rwanda, Sao Tome, Niger, Mali, Ghana, Benin, Togo, Gambia, Cape Verde, Mauritania, Congo-Brazzaville, and Uganda.  These places are a bit friendlier despite smaller disputes, but travel to these countries is safe. Kenya, South Africa, Egypt, Morocco, and Tanzania I like to see more of, plus Kenya isn't on the news much anymore since their government elections a while ago, which led to violence in Nairobi metro area, but we haven't heard much about it since then.

Wow. Make a geographic statement and it gets big attention. I guess that shows how little else is going on right now. I did not forget Tanzania except in data entry. It was on the list I prepared, but in alphabetizing I inexplicably did not bring it into my post.

Madagacar and Mauritius are islands in the Indian Ocean and as such do not qualify in my view as being part of the African continent. My definition of African continent stops at Mozambique and does not extend eastward. However, my view appears to be not shared by many, as they include Mauritius and Madagascar as African countries. Let's root for future Amazing Races in Seychelles, Reunion and the Comoros Island(which is one that has mostly excaped my notice in the past but comes up on some African nations lists) to boost the African nations count.

Also, some people would count the airport stop that AR5 teams had in Nairobi as evidence that Kenya was part of teh race. I do not count it.

Here is my dream for TAR15 (It must be golden):
Leg1: Dallas, Texas – Asuncion, Paraguay (The start of the race is on a very large farm)
Leg2: Mombasa, Kenya (Safari!)
Leg3: Cairo, Egypt (They’ve been here before, but I rather see Egypt again than India, Thailand, and China)
Leg4: Copenhagen, Denmark (They never been here!)
Leg5: Prague, Czech Republic
Leg6: Vatican City, Rome
(Leg 4-6, they will not travel by airports but through trains)
Leg7: Jerusalem, Israel (With the clue saying: fly to the holy city! They need to figure out that Jerusalem is the holy city!)
Leg8: Damascus, Syria (They will travel to Israel to Syria not by airports or trains but by traveling to the deserts.)
Leg9: Kathmandu, Nepal (With the view of Mt. Everest but not actually going to the top of it!)
Leg10: Sydney, Australia
Leg11: Moresby, Papua New Guinea (Not on the capital city itself! But through its green jungles)
Leg12: Wewak, Papua New Guinea (Water race just like in El Nido, Palawan)
Leg13: Las Vegas, Nevada (The final pitstop is in the desert)

Leg1: 12-11
Leg2: 11-10
Leg3: 10-9
Leg4: 9-8, Fast Forward, Yield
Leg5: 8-8, Fast Forward, Non-Elimination Point
Leg6: 8-7, Speed Bump, U-Turn
Leg7: 7-6
Leg8: 6-6, Fast Forward, U-Turn, Non-Elimination Point
Leg9: 6-5, Speed Bump
Leg10: 5-4, Fast Forward, Yield
Leg11: 4-3
Leg12: 3-2
Leg13: 2

Notes:
1. There are 4 fast forwards and the team can use it twice in the race, however, u turn and yields can only use once in the race. (I don’t care whether you hate the u turn and yields, but for me personally, it gives spice in the race!)
2. Legs 1-3 and Legs 11-13 have no twist at all because I believe that putting twists in the first legs and last legs is the biggest mistake that the creator did on the show. By not putting any twists in Legs 1-3 and Legs 11-13 will give justice to the strong racers. (Ex. The only reason Eric and Danielle won TAR11, is because of the luck given by putting twists in the last legs. In TAR11, there are 2 non-elimination points in the last leg which is unfair giving injustice to Dustin and Kandace, Charla and Mirna, and the alpha male gay team).
3. However, on Leg 12 will give a justifiable twist in the race by eliminating the last team. Meaning, there will only be 2 teams in the final leg (Leg 13) of the race. The reason for that is I end up watching 2 racers who battle head to head in the last leg than the 3rd team who just gives additional editing time. With the final 2 in the last leg, there will be no more Bama’s, or Eric and Danielle (who just got the 1st place finish because of the gossip challenge), or even Kelly and Jamie (who just got the 2nd place finish because of the deaf guy helping them).
4. The last episode will be 1 ½ hours in order to show Leg 12 and Leg 13 making it a total of 12 episodes.
5. And lastly, I hate China, India, and Thailand (no more on these 3 countries), they need not to travel on any of these countries anymore after another 10 more seasons of the race.

How about a Beatles challenge (I know they had the Abbey Road clue in S7), like a whole task dedicated to the Fab4 like

Detour: The Long and Winding Road or The Magical Mystery Tour

In The Long and Winding Road, teams make their way by foot through the streets of London in order to find 10 things marked with a race flag, referencing songs from the Beatles. All things are located apart from each other, but they are pretty noticeable and teams are free to visit them in the order they want and. Teams are provided only with a list of 10 songs.

In The Magical Mystery Tour, teams board a special double-decker bus that will follow a pre-determined circuit, passing by 5 objects teams have to take a picture of. Again, these will be related to Beatles songs. However, they will be pretty hard to spot and if teams fail to find the 5 objects, they'll have to repeat the circuit again.

3. However, on Leg 12 will give a justifiable twist in the race by eliminating the last team. Meaning, there will only be 2 teams in the final leg (Leg 13) of the race. The reason for that is I end up watching 2 racers who battle head to head in the last leg than the 3rd team who just gives additional editing time. With the final 2 in the last leg, there will be no more Bama’s, or Eric and Danielle (who just got the 1st place finish because of the gossip challenge), or even Kelly and Jamie (who just got the 2nd place finish because of the deaf guy helping them).
4. The last episode will be 1 ½ hours in order to show Leg 12 and Leg 13 making it a total of 12 episodes.
5. And lastly, I hate China, India, and Thailand (no more on these 3 countries), they need not to travel on any of these countries anymore after another 10 more seasons of the race.

Hey Masterly. :D Great route! :D Although I enjoy the drama the India/Thailand/China legs bring, I do think that only one of India/Thailand/China should show up per Race, if at all. The two-team finale thing sounds intriguing, but it would've eliminated Tyler/James or Rob/Kim in TAR 10 (former arrived last of the Final 3 in Spain; latter finished the last task in Paris and if there was an elim point in the middle of the finale - start with a mid-leg elim, end with a mid-leg elim thing - I do think Bama would've beaten 'em) and Charla/Mirna in TAR 11 (they arrived last in Guam and even though they had a lead in Hawaii, they were the last to finish the last Hawaii task). Plus, Margie/Luke got help with that task too, so I don't think it was that unfair.

How about a Beatles challenge (I know they had the Abbey Road clue in S7), like a whole task dedicated to the Fab4 like

In The Magical Mystery Tour, teams board a special double-decker bus that will follow a pre-determined circuit, passing by 5 objects teams have to take a picture of. Again, these will be related to Beatles songs. However, they will be pretty hard to spot and if teams fail to find the 5 objects, they'll have to repeat the circuit again.

This is so plausible! <333 the task!

It' much appreciated!! I would love to see the race visit Nova Scotia - the city of Halifax has some great sites - Citadel hill would make a great road block, pier 21 for a pit stop, the bar scene  :jam: could be used as part of a detour.... Just my thoughts!!!

I'd love it if there was a trick to the final clue like:

GO TO THE FINISH LINE...........(somewhere)!GO GO GO! THIS IS IT!
And then when the F3 arrive at the 'finish line' and they realize it'a pit stop,
then, either two things can happen:
1.One team is eliminated, so that leaves 2 teams to battle it off, what I'd like to call RECKLESS COMBAT...no,i'm just joking that's a stupid name...anyway...

2.It's a non-elimination leg and the next leg is acually the final leg...and that one team that arrives last has to do a timely spped bump during the final leg.

So in either cases, on the way checking at the 'finish line' the teams might pay the driver $ to make him kill some red lights or go over the speed limit, or give all thier energy for the 'final' sprint...so they might end up with some disadvantages the next leg,so unlike the current races, team won't be racing with a filled fanny pack, and smoothly going through every payment

SECOND TWist: a SPLIT DECISION
In a certain point of the race, there will be a TBC leg, and for the first pasrt of the leg, teams have to make a choice
Example: SPLIT DECISION:Go to one of the following destinations: La Paz, Mexico. or La Paz,Bolivia(Los Angeles, USA,or Los Angeles, Chile etc.) And for the frist leg they have to do the tasks at the city they choose, for the second part of the leg teams gather up in one city and check in at the pit stop. Also, every city up for selection has it's pros and cons

Locations:
Saipan
Bali(Denparsar),Malaysia
NO MORE INDIA CHINA THAILAND
Vladvostok(Some people wanted Siberia...)
Vancouver

Teams:
Celebrities!(Thinking of Janice Dickinson on the race makes me....)
Kids and teens! Like me~!
People that know every single person on the race
People that never watched the show
Random people pickin off the street, asked "Would you like to travel around the world for free?"
Tell 11 pairs of 2 that their on a tour, event ect. and put them on the race without them knowing it until they see phil(sorta like Survivor6..I think...

Notes:
1. There are 4 fast forwards and the team can use it twice in the race, however, u turn and yields can only use once in the race. (I don’t care whether you hate the u turn and yields, but for me personally, it gives spice in the race!)
2. Legs 1-3 and Legs 11-13 have no twist at all because I believe that putting twists in the first legs and last legs is the biggest mistake that the creator did on the show. By not putting any twists in Legs 1-3 and Legs 11-13 will give justice to the strong racers. (Ex. The only reason Eric and Danielle won TAR11, is because of the luck given by putting twists in the last legs. In TAR11, there are 2 non-elimination points in the last leg which is unfair giving injustice to Dustin and Kandace, Charla and Mirna, and the alpha male gay team).
3. However, on Leg 12 will give a justifiable twist in the race by eliminating the last team. Meaning, there will only be 2 teams in the final leg (Leg 13) of the race. The reason for that is I end up watching 2 racers who battle head to head in the last leg than the 3rd team who just gives additional editing time. With the final 2 in the last leg, there will be no more Bama’s, or Eric and Danielle (who just got the 1st place finish because of the gossip challenge), or even Kelly and Jamie (who just got the 2nd place finish because of the deaf guy helping them).
4. The last episode will be 1 ½ hours in order to show Leg 12 and Leg 13 making it a total of 12 episodes.
5. And lastly, I hate China, India, and Thailand (no more on these 3 countries), they need not to travel on any of these countries anymore after another 10 more seasons of the race.

Plus, Margie/Luke got help with that task too, so I don't think it was that unfair.

Unfair? I was the first one to help Jaime + Cara at the roadblock. There's no rules written where it says that a team isn't allowed to help other team. Originally, Jaime + Cara and my Mom + I had a thought of working together at the final roadblock if we arrive there before Victor + Tammy does. We didn't want them to win the race  :duno:

Here is one... you know those midway thingy like in last season, why not the last team to arrive have a penalty.... I was thinking maybe marked for elimination but a speed bump would be fine. That would certainly make the race more interesting...

It would certainly give the last-placed team more initiative to fight, knowing that even if they finished last and the leg was a "TBC", it would still put them at a significant disadvantage...knowing that at the next part of the leg, they would have to complete the speed bump task plus the second detour/roadblock.

so with TAR 15 filming way past done and getting ready to air, and with TAR 16 gearing up to film later this Fall (October/November, i can't really remember which month), should we start looking at other new possible locations?

One obvious place to look is in Eastern Europe.

it seems they've used at least one "Eastern European" country in every season since season 5.
this does exclude TAR 13 (Kazakhstan came closest to new Eastern Europe, but is in fact, in Central Asia), and to some extent TAR 7 (although Istanbul is in Europe, Turkey is part of Asia Minor)

so here's my list of possible countries (most to least likely IMO):
Bulgaria
Slovenia
Latvia
Montenegro
Serbia
Slovakia
Azerbaijan*
Uzbekistan**
Cyprus*
Macedonia
Bosnia
Albania
Belarus
Armenia*
Georgia*
Tajikstan**
Turkmenistan**
Moldova
Kyrgyzstan**

* goes along with Turkey in the Asia Minor "Europe"
** goes along with Kazakhstan in Central Asian "Europe"

David Junior, a small geography lesson is in order:

The Republic of Turkey is a Eurasian country that stretches across the Anatolian peninsula in western Asia and Thrace (Rumelia) in the Balkan region of southeastern Europe.... Separating Anatolia and Thrace are the Sea of Marmara and the Turkish Straits (the Bosporus and the Dardanelles), which are commonly reckoned to delineate the boundary between Europe and Asia.

I have been to Istanbul, which is European on the west bank of the Bosporus and Asian on the east bank in the same city!

If you look on the website Israel was added August 14, 2009 which was when TAR 15 was fliming. They probably planned the route months ago so maybe they didn't want to waste money going to another country

i just don't want any cousin teams on the race until TAR 18 (maybe 19 if applications close for 18 before February 2011...)  ;)

So let me start with my own wishlist for TAR16 or future seasons..

I like the concept of the switchback roadblock that's why I'd like to see more. Roadblocks I had in mind--

1. TAR6 Key/lock finding task in Xian, China (one of the best & toughest)

2. TAR7 meat-eating task in Argentina (look at all those who quitted)

3. TAR Asia 1- Leg 3 in Bali. The digging roadblock for that small surfboard replica (Yes, it's from a different TAR version but it's good enough to borrow)

I also would revive the Intersection task, One would involve 5 teams working together (TAR6 viking boat task) and another would involve 2 teams to work together (TAR 10&11)


For the cast--

1. An Athete African-American all-female team (ala Venus & Serena Williams)
2. A pair of smart Asian girls
3. A socialites/privileged all-female team (ala Paris & Nicole)
4. A male/female twin team
5. A father/daughter team-- about time been MIA since Season 12
6. Firemen team / Athletic bodybulding granddads
7. An all-male team of unknown DJs/rappers/breakdancers
8. Nerdy couple (ala Dave & Lori)
9. A Successful Reality TV couple (I'm looking at Erik & Jamie from Survivor China)
10. A transgendered woman & boyfriend/fiance
11. A May-December team (older woman & younger man) team
12. An interracial couple (black guy/white woman)

Alternative team: Hot Lesbian Couple

For the Starting Line twist, the First team to finish the surprise task/challenge gets to pick a team that would be eliminated from the race!


 Now this excites me!

I started thus thread to see if anyone has any ideas for a new TAR twist. I thought of the one-way street. It comes before a detour, and you can use it to force one team to do one side of the detour.

I don't know if we really need any new twists, but if anything, I would like to see a one-time pass given to teams at the starting line that allows them to change the Roadblock participant, but with the catch that before the second team member starts, they must wait out a time penalty (30 minutes or an hour) and that all progress their teammate made in completing the Roadblock is lost and the second person must completely start over from the beginning of the task. Other than that, I also like the idea a few people have mentioned of the Roundabout.

It's kinda funny to read back this thread all the way from the beginning and seeing which predictions have come true. :)

Countries/Cities they HAVE to visit

*Indonesia (Its so huge and they keep missing it  :groan:)
*Amazon Rain Forest
*Luxembourg
*Tasmania
*Some Oceania Islands (Polynesia)
*Canada (more please?)
*Denmark (you keep going to Scandinavia and pass right over it)

Some New twists/updated twists

*More Fast Forwards (its turned into "Ooh a Fast Forward!" instead of "should we use it later or now?"
*Bring back the Yield!! (Look above ^)
*More U-Turns (maybe a 2 reg,2 blind, and 2 double?)
* A task that could earn an express pass, more money, or another COP photo?

Just some suggestions :)

Indonesia gets passed over for safety and security reasons, I think. As for Tasmania, to put it bluntly, there's nothing there. Unless you want to have teams driving from one end of the state to the other to reach things to do, there's not enough there (especially in the winter) to put together a whole leg.

Yeah but TARAsia visits it :(
We can only hope

The only threat is in the Sulawesis (which is that island thing off of Borneo) where there is religion conflicts and stuff)
but Jakarta is safe!

and I see lots of things to do in Tasmania! centered around Hobart and Port Author  

Edit: Another reason for the US to not visit is you must have a 6 month validation on your passport and an onward/return ticket http://www.flightstats.com/go/TravelPlanning/consularInformationSheet.do?countryCode=ID&issuingCountryCode=US

Which they could do that if they gave them tickets to their next destination or somethin

OR they can buy a 10 day visa thing (which is like 100$) and they can be in and out in no time :) especially if its an uber leg :)

I'm looking forward to a "TAR: Bat**** Insane Edition"!

Flo/Zach
Colin/Christie
Charla/Mirna
Adam/Rebecca
Jonathan/Victoria (enough narcissism/insanity for two teams, easily)
Lake/Michelle
Lisa/Joni
David/Mary
Mark/Michael
Daniel/Jordan
Carol/Brandy
Nick/Vicki

Now THAT would be entertaining. I think most episodes would sound somewhere along the lines of a Linkin Park track (doesn't matter which one since they're all the same, obviously).

I wonder if they would ever consider adding a second leg in the US, back in the race. Not every season, but every now and then. Either in the beginning, go from LA to somewhere in the US (kind of like the first leg of TARA 3 that stayed within Thailand), or in the second from the last leg (like in the first 2 seasons).

But I'm guessing it's a little too Family Edition-ish to the producers.

All I want is 9 foreign countries each season. Of them 3 should be new countries (I would love to see some N. American/Caribbean countries), and 3-4 should be countries that have been not so recently visited but def. have lots of culture (e.g. Ecuador, Greece, Egypt after the revolutions die down, even Italy).

Also, no more China.

Leg 3: Copenhagen, Denmark
Leg 4: Riga, Latvia
Leg 5: Goa, India
Leg 6: Chiang Mai, Thailand
Leg 7: rural Chiang Mai Province
Leg 8: Okinawa, Japan
Leg 9: Palau (task at Jellyfish Lake)
Leg 10: Vancouver, BC, Canada
Leg 11: Vancouver, BC
Leg 12: Salt Lake City, Utah

The 19th Season is only a few months away from filming and right now they are scouting for possible destinations.  This is not a "Wish List," this is for predictions/ideas on the course for TAR19.  So don't add things like Antarctica, pit stop at my house, and so on; okay!!

To start this off, here is my predictions for the route:
-They should start in places where they haven't been to before like Minneapolis, Houston, or Atlanta
-Helsinki since TAR10 should be a good start and it should have a Pit Stop
-Denmark has been ignored for the past 18 seasons and we need it
-Lisbon, Portugal since TAR3
-Gabon near the Equator in Africa
-I don't mind another couple of stops in India like Hyderabad and Triviandrum
-A revisit to Vietnam and especially Central Vietnam like Da Nang and the former DMZ area
-Kuching on the island of Borneo in Malaysia
-Fiji after 18 seasons we haven't seen a new country in Oceania yet
-Vancouver, BC the olympics just happened over a year ago and two legs are plausible here
-Finish like in the Mountain or Central time zone cities

I hate the fact that,being a summer season, they may completely skip South America, so I guess we're not watching SA for a while. And there are still so many places to go (Uyuni salt pit in Bolivia, Amazon, Venezuela, Glaciers in southern Chile[they were so close in TAR11 and blew it  :groan: ]), but they keep going to repeated or lame places there, I just can´t understand it.

I think we need a really good dosis of Spain (let's be honest, they just did a Barcelona detour and a long drive with the dieselgate, nothing more), please Denmark (completely ignored, god knows why) and the Easter Islands (one of the few international landmarks remaining unvisited).

PLEASE no more India or China for a while or my brains will explode(unless they go to Tibet or something extremely remote)

The race planners really hate Balkan area, they've only visited in Romania and Croatia in that area. I really want more visits there, it's amazingly beautiful everywhere in that area - mountains of Bulgaria, coast of Montenegro, Plitvice lakes in Croatia, Skocjan caves in Slovenia, Ohrid lake region in Macedonia, still isolated Albania, northern Romania... And of course they should visit in Denmark, Belgium, Luxembourg and Latvia. It's really amazing how they have avoided Denmark and Belgium, it really is. And more Spain!!!

And no more visits in China, India and Russia. Only seasons 3, 8 and 15 have avoided these countries... well, 8 and 15 suck but 3 is amazing season so that proves you don't need those 3 countries to make a good season  :snicker:

Leg 2 (Canada to Iceland) route marker at the Hallgrimskirkja Church in Reykjavik
Leg 3 (Iceland to Denmark) First time visit to the country Denmark and the city of Copenhagen
Leg 4 (Denmark) Jutland Peninsula and Legoland
Leg 5 (Denmark to Germany) the cities of Cologne, Bonn, and Dusseldorf
Leg 6 (Germany to Malawi) First time visit to Malawi and Lake Malawi
Leg 7 (Malawi to India) Kochi, Kerala and India's southermost mainland point Cape Comorin
Leg 8 (India to Brunei) First time visit to Brunei
Leg 9 (Brunei to Malaysia) Kuching, Sarawak
Leg 10 (Malaysia) Rural outskirts of Kuching and the nearby National Parks
Leg 11 (Malaysia to Fiji) First time visit to Fiji
Leg 12 (Fiji to Hawaii, USA to Washington, USA) Intermediate stop in Hawaii especially Molokai and finish line in the Seattle metro area

Post by: jnsars4zjtar18 on April 28, 2011, 09:05:25 AM
Since we are near to the TAR 18 finale, What if there is another Unfinished Business with another set of teams?

They are:

1. Brook & Claire (2nd place - S17) = Z & J
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Unable to beat Nat & Kat in the final leg of their season.
    Attributes: Funny but very competitive team that almost made them win their season.

2. Steve & Allie (6th place - S16) = G & M
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Had bad luck on taxis in Malaysia.
    Attributes: Almost always on the front of the pack and their great support to each other is a plus.

3. Louie & Michael (4th place - S16) = FT & BE   
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Struggled to catch up in China.
    Attributes: Not only they have the physical strength but unlike FT & BE they have also tricks in their
                      sleeves. IMO

4. Azaria & Hendekea (6th place - S12) = K & J
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Eliminated due to the ticketing error in Lithuania
    Attributes: 3 wins in their season is a proof of their competitiveness and good racing skills
                      (if only luck is with them)

5. Andrew & Dan (3rd place - S13) = K & V
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Unfinished Business of suckiness!!! j/k LOL   
    Attributes: Very funny and great for entertainment & one of the luckiest teams to date.

6. Mark & Michael (5th place - S14) ≠ Jt & Cd
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Due to their time penalty, they struggled to catch up with the other
                                                        teams in China and inevitably eliminated.
    Attributes: Although not as good as the cowboys but they have the ability to stay on the
                      front of the pack.

7. Ken & Tina (2nd place - S13) = R & C
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Lost in Taxi Battle against Nick & Starr in the last leg   
    Attributes:Ken’s strength and Tina’s good PR skills to locals were almost made them win.

8. Toni & Dallas (4th place - S13) = M & L   
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Lost the fanny pack in Russia in the race for F3 in their season   
    Attributes:Their support to each other is great plus Dallas strength can contribute to their team (just
                     attach their fanny pack to their bodies and they’re fine)

9. Kelly & Christy (6th place - S13) = Jm & Cr   
    Reason for Unfinished Business: Struggled at the road block in India.
    Attributes: Their feistiness can bring entertainment and it adds to their competitive nature (although
                      their lack of detail may bring them doom)

10. Gary & Matt (5th place - S15) = M & M
      Reason for Unfinished Business: Struggled at their Speed Bump in Estonia thus did not catch up and
                                                          resulted to their elimination.
      Attributes: See Steve and Allie…

11. Lorena & Jason (S12) = A & C
      Reason for Unfinished Business: U-turned by another team that eliminate them (like Amanda & Kris)
      Attributes: They are competitive somewhat (their 1st place finish in Leg 1 is a proof) but not as
                        competitive as A&K (and also Lorena’s whiny attitude made them eliminated)

These teams are fairly competitive (if not as competitive as the ones who are currently running for Unfinished Business). But for me I see Brook & Claire winning this one with either two of these teams (Louie & Micheal, Azaria & Hendekea, Steve & Allie, Ken & Tina, or Toni & Dallas) in the F3. IMO

Who are your alternate teams for UB (aside to those currently running)? :-[  ;)

Azaria and Christina
Cord and Sarah
Dallas and Starr

Previous racers with new partners is also a good idea! Through this, we can now see their different side and how they deal with someone other than their previous partner. That would be exciting to watch!

I just remebered, aside from Claire, Brook auditioned with another partner right?

Locations : Indonesia! Duh, I live there! Who wouldn't love to see their country on TAR?!
And for the cities, if you want to bring up the worries in the teams, get Jakarta! The traffic here is so... annoying. It would be fun to see those teams worrying for their elimination just because of traffic, traffic, traffic!  :snicker:
If you want to focus on the cultural side, I'd say Jogjakarta or Papua. In Papua, they still have a lot friendly traditional tribes living in forests... Or for beautiful views, perhaps Bali, Batam Island, or Bunaken Island. Even though I don't really prefer on Bali; it's already on the spotlight of the world, so it's time for another cities to shine!  :hearts:

Twists : Here we go. My friends and me actually had a lot about it, and you guys even got the same ideas, but here's another few new ones:
PAUSE : Another prize for a leg winner just like Express Pass. Teams that win Pause may use it during a task, to "Pause" other teams that are currently doing the same task for 10 minutes. Pause will not affect any team that is already finished the task, or arrived after the Pause effect is announced.
DOUBLE NON-ELIMINATED TEAMS : In one leg, teams will be on Intersection for the whole leg to the PitStop. But the last 2-Intersected teams will not be eliminated, instead in the next leg, both teams have to do a SpeedBump. It would be fun to see both teams competing with eachother at SpeedBump.   :lol:
NARROW WAY : Opposite of Intersection : 2 teams will have to compete with eachother to finish faster. The winner may just depart after the task, but the loser will have to wait a predetermined time of penalty (let's say 10 or 15 minutes).

Teams : I think I don't prefer some kinds of relationships. I like their personalities better.  :lol:
For another Unfinished Business, including teams before Season 11, excluding Family Edition, I'd like to see all U-Turned teams  : Amanda & Kris (they even U-Turned at the very first task in this season!), Joe & Heidi, Carol & Brandy, Chad & Stephanie, Lorena & Jason... Plus some interesting-yet-unluckily/sadly-eliminated teams : Toni & Dallas, Maria & Tiffany, Mika & Canaan, Azaria & Hendekea, Eric & Lisa, Bilal & Sa'eed, Vipul & Arti. THAT season would be an Ultimate UB.  :lol3:

How about this new twist: the Choice U-Turn
The team who is U-Turned must complete the Detour again, but they can choose which side they want to do, which can include the side they just completed.

I have thought about a concept called a Limited Detour, where only a certain number of teams can do one side of the Detour and if a team wants to switch options, they must trade out with another team.
This is very similar to your idea. :tup:

Post by: mjriches2005 on May 19, 2011, 06:51:42 PM
I have some ideas:
1) a brand new task choice to the race like "Oneway" where one team chooses another team to do an extra additional task that will slow them down.  This is not the same as the U-Turn which involves the Detour, its more like an additional task.

2) have them visit places like Kalgoorlie in Western Australia, Easter Island, Boniare, Curacao, Sint-Maarten, Bermuda, and have the starting line like in Alaska or Hawaii.

3) like to see some new teamings: Uncle-Aunt/Niece-Nephew, Godparent/Godchild "in the US Version," multi-racial team "African-American/White" (not married/dating)

4) like to see some teams with new titles: Fishermen, Rock Musicians, Military Buddies, etc..

If they could go to Iceland, one of the most expensive countries in the world, Denmark is SO possible. I have been there multiple times, and there are so many wonderful locations. The pitstop could be a garden at one of the castles, or the little mermaid statue. Tasks could include things to do with vikings, lego (maybe build something out of lego at legoland) and there could also be some sort of boating challenge in Aarhus. There are many historical places to visit and so many things to do. Denmark would be perfect for a leg.

This leg would be pretty good for season 19, it includes some new countries and some visited ones too.

Leg 1: Chicago => Dublin (Ireland)
Leg 2: Dublin => Copenhagen (Denmark)
Leg 3: Copenhagen => Munich (Germany)
Leg 4: Munich => Johannesburg (SA)
Leg 5: Johannesburg (SA)
Leg 6: Johannesburg => Lagos (Nigeria)
Leg 7: Lagos => Kuwait City (Kuwait)
Leg 8: Kuwait City => Istanbul (Turkey)
Leg 9: Istanbul => Urumqi (China) => Ulan Baator (Mongolia)

Spain is overdue, and so is a Spain to Morocco leg as they did with the TAR3

I think that an entire race in Spain would be possible. I mean, there's plenty of different cultures in each region of the country, each leg could be completely different to the rest. I hope TAR visits Spain soon...

There's also some African countries that have somehow different cultures to the rest of Africa. Everyone says South Africa, but I think it's really typical (everyone think it could be, I'd prefer other ones).

NOPE

A German minister of Agriculture and things like that told that it came from Spain having made 0 researches. It has been proved that Spain is not the focus and that in Spain there is no one affected by it. We eat cucumbers and fresh vegetables as usual. Now we have a 200 milion € loss.
The German Government hasn't said they were wrong either (pride, maybe. they're country #1 in here) and Spanish Government, most of the times, just are passive and doing nothing.  :lol3:  That's how we do in Spain, but we do not have the E. coli thing.

TWIST: Bring back the Yield, and don't put any more fantarded versions of the U-Turn.

And with that, let me make my own fantarded Yield versions:

Money Yield - you need to pay to use this Yield
Surprise Yield - common sense, right?
Pause Yield - wait for the team you are yielding to arrive so that you can move on (looks great in a footrace)
Mandatory Yield - everybody is yielded, but you can vouch out if you still have a Courtesy of Photo
Target Yield - target any team behind or ahead (for ahead, penalties will be applied at the pitstop)
Karma Yield - the team who uses this will (not knowingly) get a surprise penalty at the pitstop (application in the Korean leg of one of my fantasy races)

Of course, I'm not serious with this. :res:

P.S. Stop dreaming for new twists. :lol:

TWIST: Bring back the Yield, and don't put any more fantarded versions of the U-Turn.

And with that, let me make my own fantarded Yield versions:

Money Yield - you need to pay to use this Yield
Surprise Yield - common sense, right?
Pause Yield - wait for the team you are yielding to arrive so that you can move on (looks great in a footrace)
Mandatory Yield - everybody is yielded, but you can vouch out if you still have a Courtesy of Photo
Target Yield - target any team behind or ahead (for ahead, penalties will be applied at the pitstop)
Karma Yield - the team who uses this will (not knowingly) get a surprise penalty at the pitstop (application in the Korean leg of one of my fantasy races)

Of course, I'm not serious with this. :res:

P.S. Stop dreaming for new twists. :lol:
Ha ha "fantarded". My word of the day today.
How about the "Express U-Turn". If the team that is U-Turned completes the other side of the detour, they get an express pass?
Or
The "Fast Forward U-Turn" If the team that is U-Turned completes the other side of the detour, they get to skip all other tasks and go directly to the pit stop.
Or - my favourite...
The "The Double U-Turn Yield Express Pass Intersection Pit Stop". All teams get very confused and are simultaneously philiminated. They all are guaranteed to be cast on the next Unfinished Business season - unless they are pregnant or dead.

I have a dream.
USA-> Spain (11 legs) -> USA.
:lol3:  Something similar this September... :lol:

Seriously. I just think that some islands such as Tuvalu, Micronesia or something like that could be used as a F4 leg. I really think they could be really creative legs.
I have also thought about some countries such as Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil (I don't even love South America in TAR, but, it's a different atmosphere) but going to little cities where the tradition of the countries is found. I mean, if you go to Rio, it is ultra-modernized for the Olympics and soooo on. But little cities have the enchant of Brazilian culture, for example.
Other countries such as Turkey, India, even China, have already been visited, but I'm afraid they could place legs in there soooo different to those they made in their visits to these countries. My 2 cents: Seen countries with unseen sites.

Philippines
June 14, 2011
The Department of State warns U.S. citizens of the risks of terrorist activity in the Philippines, particularly in the Sulu Archipelago and on the island of Mindanao. Terrorist attacks could be indiscriminate and could occur in other areas, to include Manila. Targeted sites may be public gathering places including, but not limited to, airports, shopping malls, conference centers, and other public venues. This Travel Warning replaces the Travel Warning dated November 2, 2010, and updates specific regions of concern and reflects continuing threats due to terrorist and insurgent activities.

They could always stay far north though.  There's plenty to do with farming and animals, there's spelunking caves, they can do whitewater rafting on the Cagayan River, do something along the north coast.  They wouldn't even have to leave the airport in Manila, just connect to a flight heading to one of the airports up north.

I'd love for TARUS to go back to the Philippines, but I guess best best is to wait for TARA or TARAu to.  :food:

As far as where TAR goes, it wouldn't make no nary mind to me.   Wherever they send you will be exciting.  My wishlist would be to be Boston Rob's teammate as a fan+favorite  team.  Spending time with that rapcsallion while he schemes his way through the race would be priceless.  It would do this golden years mom's heart good.  And believe me, I would not scold.  I would just enjoy.  :<)

Yeah, the problem with a celeb edition is the level of "celebrity" that can actually run the Race without there being problems with security and being recognized around the world.  You've got the Sarah Jessica Parker-level TAR fan who would love to do the Race, but realistically, TAR would have to settle for D-listers and other reality castoffs which would... well, it's better not to think about it.  :lol:

I think celeb editions are more fitting for BB or Survivor, but not exactly TAR.

Post by: kathleenykl on July 01, 2011, 08:48:02 AM
I have a dream route that I have been working on for a while now... see what you guys can make of it  :duno:

Leg 1: Philadelphia, USA - Tikal, Guatemala [10 teams left]
Leg 2: Tikal, Guatemala - Caracas, Venezuela [9 teams left]
This would be a history (Philly) and culture (Mayan culture) themed route. Teams might have to drive 4 hours from Guatemala city to the ruins in Tikal and perform cultural tasks. I also wanted the race to cover South America, but not too much, so Venezuela was chosen.

Leg 3: Caracas, Venezuela - Libreville, Gabon [NEL]
Leg 4: Gabon (Estuaire, Atlantic Equatorial Coastal Ecoforest regions) [8 teams left]
Gabon was given two legs as it was the only African country visited. The tasks and destination would be particularly nature-oriented; Gabon has the largest percentage of nature reserves by total land area, in the region.

Leg 5: Libreville, Gabon - Helsinki, Finland [NEL]
Leg 6: Finland (Rovaniemi) [7 teams left]
Helsinki is chosen as this leg's obligatory modern European city. Also, I felt we needed some cold here. In the additional leg, racers visit Rovaniemi, the capital of Finnish Lapland. I just can't get enough of the orgasmic arctic circle leg in Season 17.

Leg 7: Helsinki, Finland - Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia [6 teams left]
Again, change in environment from modern city to sandy desert dunes and rolling plains. Fulfils my Genghis Khan Silk Road fantasy. I like it a lot.

Leg 8: Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia - Kathmandu, Nepal [NEL]
Leg 9: Nepal (Pokhara and Annapurna mountain range) [5 teams left]
New country. Also, to visit the mountain range of the Everest in a full leg would be a nice respite from the Andes and Swiss alps that we have seen in previous seasons.

Leg 10: Kathmandu, Nepal - Singapore, Singapore [4 teams left]
After the majesty of untouched wilderness, we need a last big modern city destination before End City. (Sorry beautiful beaches of Indonesia!) It was a toss-up between Singapore and Wellington, New Zealand, but I decided to choose Singapore due to its multiculturalism and availability of flights. In previous visits, the culture of this city was not emphasised enough, especially in Season 16 where it was overshadowed by the fast-forward and u-turn drama all in one leg. Another problem I anticipate would be that the final 4 can be easily identified in the little island. But one can dream.

Leg 11: Singapore, Singapore - Suva, Fiji [3 teams left for finals]
I've said umpteenth times that we NEED a south pacific nation as a final elimination stop in West to East routes. There is quiet, island culture, what's not to love? Also, as it is more secluded, this will be able to hide racers' identity better.

Leg 12: Suva, Fiji - Salt Lake City, Utah
SLC as End City just to be away from the West-Coast-city in-your-face that plague the final leg. Also ties in nicely with the fact that many destinations in this race are different and off the beaten track.

New locales: Guatemala, Venezuela, Gabon, Nepal, Fiji, Denver and Philly
Old locales: Finland, Mongolia, Singapore (all were only used once or twice in the race)

Other locations that NEED to happen:
Europe & Americas;
Greece is really beautiful and a good break from stock European locations Italy, France, Germany, but not likely due to financial crisis.
Turkey is really affordable, I have no idea why they are not going there!
Greenland & Antarctic - would be fun but I'm not desperate over it. Too expensive.
Yugoslavian bloc + Ukraine, Lat/Lith - needs to happen seriously.
Canada - neglected
Asia & Oceania;
Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines - strictly the inner parts only, big cities overdone
Indonesia - but my dream came true already :) why oh why did it take so long though?
Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan - totally my Silk Road fantasy
South India please - they've done north and east, so please do Chennai or Kerala (again!) or something
China - overdone but it's so big it never gets old if you visit different cities each season. New awesome cities: Hainan, Guangzhou, Xiamen, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Harbin, Chengdu, Nanning, Guiyang, Wuhan, Hefei, Huangshan mountains etc... the list could go on
Bhutan & Tibet - if they can get in Bhutan
Papua New Guinea and South Pacific islands - new scenery
Tasmania

Thanks for reading guys, I put a lot of creativity into it, let me know what you think  :)

My idea for fun~~~~~~~~~~~~

I think producers of TAR can pick up some elements from The Mole and provide for the fans an online quasi-The-Mole game, maybe called “Guess Who the Mysterious Guy is?

Just pick up one contestant from the final winning team as “the Mysterious Guy”. After each episode the host gives out a quiz which consists of 10 questions concerning this contestant. For example, it could be questions like “Which position was the Mysterious Team in when they arrived at the Detour?” or “Is the Mysterious Guy male or female?” or “Did the Mysterious Guy do the RB on this episode?” Fans who have registered in this game can then get online and answer the questions. 5% of them that score lowest are eliminated. Finally, the fan that has passed all quizzes through and scores highest in the final quiz is the Winner of the Fans, who can get a special gift from TAR crew.

We can also develop a twist for this game like “exemption.” For example, fans who have successfully predicted the team that arrives at the pit stop in a certain position in the following lap can get an exemption. For instance, maybe fans that have successfully picked out the 4th team in Leg 1 get an exemption for Leg 1 of Guessing Who the Mysterious Guy Is, and those who have successfully picked out the 2nd team in Leg 2 get an exemption for Leg 2, etc.

Fans that have been eliminated can also participate in the quiz next round, but these people will not be counted as “contestants that are still running" in this game. They’re ineligible for the final prize.

Maybe I am reading this wrong, so I am sorry if so...but, Washington's birthday holiday was made official 1/31/1879 by Congress.  Washington died in 1799.

One thing I was thinking about yesterday that any version of TAR should do is give out more Race powers as Pit Stop prizes, like they already do with the Express Pass. Sort of like what we fantasy game hosts do. :snicker:

The problem is that ordinary people aren't really that interesting.
Its the extraordinary people who are larger than life that get cast.

My favorite people on TAR are the ones who started out as ordinary people...not the stunt casted. But in this day and age CBS/WRP clearly believe that they need the ratings help of YouTube bloggers, athletes, BQ's, and others who have some sort of following already.

A fan in China comes up with an idea of setting a new mission called "SPLIT", a variation of RB.

This kind of mission requires that one contestant of a team do one task in a place and his/her teammate do another task in another place, and then they go to a certain place to meet again, and get the next clue.

Title: Re: TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**
Post by: DavidJunior on September 10, 2011, 06:51:22 PM
Here's my two cents:
Starts with 12 teams and goes for 13 legs* (I like the 12 team seasons, and I feel they should bring the leg count back to 13).
Note: I personally count double-length legs as two separate legs, but denote them as one. (So, even though it may say 12 legs, it's actually 13, since one leg was twice as long).

Leg 1: New York City, U.S.A. to Buenos Aires, Argentina (EL- 11 teams remain) New York deserves to have a starting line, especially since it's season 20.  A good time to do a throw-back to the original.  Buenos Aires is also a good city that hasn't been visited since Season 7, and could easily field another leg.

Leg 2: Buenos Aires to North-West Argentina (EL- 10 teams remain) Central and Southern Argentina have been used a lot.  Would be nice to utilize this area, as well.  Also, a good time to do a Switchback of the meat eating Roadblock from Season 7.  It also, helps us transition to our next location.

Leg 3: Salta, Argentina to Asuncion, Paraguay (EL- 9 teams remain/U-turn #1) New location, with several possibilities in terms of tasks.  Throw in a U-turn here to maybe spice things up a little.

Leg 4: Paraguay to Rome, Italy to Vatican City (NEL- 9 teams remain) Rome definitely deserves another visit, especially since it hasn't been used since Season 1, and on top of that, was only used in a couple "find the monument" tasks on that season.  Also, an actual stop in the Holy See would be nice.  Even a pitstop would suffice.

Leg 5: Rome to Pompeii/Naples/Capri, Italy (EL- 8 teams remain) I love to see the Mediterranean coast.  And this leg would feature it prominently.  Have clues and tasks throughout the region, and maybe end on the Isle of Capri.

Leg 6: Naples, Italy to Riga, Latvia (EL-7 teams remain) I'm actually quite surprised Latvia has yet to be used.  Most likely similar to the Lithuanian (S12), and Estonian (S15) from before.  Also, could be considered the "cold leg" of the season, since it would be winter up there.

Leg 7a: Riga, Latvia to Nairobi, Kenya (DL- 7 teams remain) This will be a double-length leg, or super leg as some call it.  Have the majority of this half of the leg in and around Nairobi with the midpoint within the city.

Leg 7b: Kenya (EL- 6 teams remain) Move from the city onto a national park or game preserve.  Have a task or two based off of the animals native to the region.

Leg 8: Nairobi, Kenya to Male, Maldives (EL- 5 teams remain) I feel there needs to be at least one tropical location per season, and this country would be a perfect fit for just that.

Leg 9: Male, Maldives to Christchurch, New Zealand (EL- 4 teams remain/U-turn #2)  Love seeing the green hills of New Zealand, and think that they would look wonderful in HD.  Also, they haven't been to the Southern Island in a while.

Leg 10: Christchurch, New Zealand to Chengdu, China (NEL- 4 teams remain) I feel this city is a must see in China, and a little (not very) surprised it hasn't been visited quite yet.  Many food and cultural tasks can be done here.

Leg 11: Sichuan, China (EL- 3 remain)  Not necessarily staying just to Chengdu, but traveling around the region.  Again, plenty of tasks that could be used for this area.

Leg 12: Chengdu, China to Vancouver, Canada to Seattle, U.S.A. (Finale) I believe Vancouver could be a wonderful intermediate location.  Have a couple of tasks in the downtown area before taking the ferry from Victoria across to Seattle.  Have one or two more tasks in Seattle (final memory challenge please).

11 countries (including U.S.A.): 3 of which are completely new (Paraguay, Latvia, the Maldives), 2 with actual visits for the first time (Vatican City and Kenya), 3 more that haven't been visited in several to many seasons (Italy, New Zealand, Canada), and the last two visiting new regions within the country (Salta, Argentina and Sichuan, China).

Post by: Katarzyna on September 12, 2011, 09:51:08 PM
^that's a good read DavidJunior.

Here's my two cents too :) for season 20
11 teams in 12 legs. 1 super leg which is a double length leg in 2 episodes.


Leg 1: Miami Beach, USA -  Barbados
First task in the starting line. Last 2 teams to finish will receive "wrong way" penalty.
The "wrong way" will require the team to take a farther/longer destination route info to retrieve their next clue. This could be seen next to the first route info clue box.
We haven't seen so much of Caribbean yet. It would be great to start off the race with teams on their skimpy clothes  :-[

Leg 2: Barbados - Port of Spain, Trinidad & Tobago (NEL)
Another spicy tropical lush destination. Teams will swim, hike, run & dive their way to finish line.

Leg 3: Trinidad & Tobago - Colonia, Uruguay
Colonia, a renowned UNESCO heritage city. The nostalgia of Old Spanish colony town. Roadblock happens in Montevideo but Detour and Finish Line is at Colonia.

Leg 4: Uruguay - Luanda, Angola
Immersing the teams in the congested streets of Luanda would be interesting. A city of 5 million people. All tasks will be inspired from the local's entertainment or leisure life in the city. In this leg, instead of a roadblock teams will perform "Dine in", a task which one team member must eat a local Angolan delicacy.

Leg 5: Luanda - Malanje, Angola
From the congested city, teams will travel to the lush less populated rainforests of Angola. Where trees and animal population is greater than the human. A physically exhausting roadblock that deals with jungle task will surprise our teams. Fast Forward also present in this leg.

Leg 6: Angola - Edinburgh, Scotland (NEL - double length)
The first part of the super leg or double length leg. In Scotland, teams will perform a road block and a mini task. No finish line in this leg.

Leg 7: Scotland - Manchester, England
In part 2. Teams will travel by car to Manchester. Hoping themselves not to get lost in their way. Another mini task and a detour exist in the leg. Double U-Turn is present in the race. Finish line in this leg.

Leg 8: England - Belgrade, Serbia
From stunning Belgrade, teams will have a long travel to the classical Subotica, Serbia.

Leg 9: Serbia - Doha, Qatar
The hot Sun scorches from above of Doha. Souq, camels, deserts are always a great combination.

Leg 10: Qatar - Kochi, India (NEL)
It would be nice to see India from a different view. A fishing and coastal city but still with the crazy fun Indian atmosphere.

Leg 11: India - Sapporo, Japan
Japan is wonderful all year round. But Sapporo is even more wonderful during winter. White snows covering the city, and as early as December you may see ice sculptures for the preparation of the Yuki Matsuri or Snow Festival. And to add more drama for the revelation of final 3, a double U-turn will be present in this leg.

Leg 12: Japan - Las Vegas, USA
The ultimate finish line. Teams will gamble their way to be the winner. Only teams brave enough to take risk shall win.

Continents visited: 5
Countries visited: 9 (excluding USA)
New countries visited: 5 (Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago, Angola, Serbia & Qatar)
New twists: Wrong way & Dine in

Speed bumps still exists after NEL legs. And since it's season 20, one of the prizes in the legs will be $20,000 for each team member who'll come first.

Teams -  I think we need less dating teams and more family teams, eg. Auntie and Niece, Grandpa and Grandson. We also need a team like Anne-Marie and Tracy in every season, a team who can just laugh at themselves.

Route - Italy, Philippines, Finland and Ukraine are WAY overdue. I'd like to see more of Mongolia and Kazakhstan as well, maybe even a trip to Kyrgyzstan. We also need to see Cyprus and Latvia.

Other stuff - Bring back the yield, and maybe even bring in the blind or double yield. Instead of just one fast forward, maybe two or three, and there should be an intersection at least once per season.

In season 12, there was Ari and Staella. They were a male/female friend team. However, they were booted in leg 1. I agree with you though. There should be more friend teams.

I don't think they'll gamble and go to the Philippines, which I really hope they visit again.
The US travel government still has travel alerts against the Philippines. And especially now, an Italian priest has been killed
and the local rebels are attacking again.
Hoping for more of Eastern Europe though. And Middle East.

My race route

I would rather this be a Nov/Dec filming season but it could work as a May/Jun season.

Leg 1 San Diego to Canberra, Australia(teams will only get a provided flight to Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane before finding flights to canberra , teams will fly out of LAX)
Leg 2 Canberra to Melbourne, Australia
Leg 3 Melbourne to Nepal
Leg 4 Nepal to Qatar to Bahrian   
Leg 5 Bahrian to Jorden
Leg 6 Jorden to Israil to Cyprus (2 part leg)
Leg 7 Cyprus to Lativa
Leg 8 Lativa to Naples, Italiy
Leg 9  Naples to Malta
Leg 10 Malta to Madrid, Spain
Leg 11 Madrid, Spain to Paraguay
Leg 12 Paraguay to Cuba to Washington DC

On this route all locations have not been visited by US tar and only 2 locations have been visited by international tar(Melbourne and israil)
There is 16 countries on the route

My race route would start at Venice, LA (the mouth of the Mississippi River) and end at St. Croix state park just north of Minneapolis/St. Paul (the start of the Mississippi River).

As for twists, the one twist I'd love to see is simple.  Treat the "Fast Pass" like they treat the hidden idol on Survivor.  If it's used, it should be added to whatever prizes are given at the end of the next leg (or even better--the current leg).  So, if you use the Fast Pass, you have to take into consideration that someone else will get it.

I thought of a Twist called the Regulated Detour. It's where teams must sign up for a Detour, and only a limited number of spots are allowed. Also, no switching! For example, if 7 teams were left, the Detour A could only have 3 users, and Detour B four.

Here's my two cents:
Starts with 12 teams and goes for 13 legs* (I like the 12 team seasons, and I feel they should bring the leg count back to 13).
Note: I personally count double-length legs as two separate legs, but denote them as one. (So, even though it may say 12 legs, it's actually 13, since one leg was twice as long).

Leg 1: New York City, U.S.A. to Buenos Aires, Argentina (EL- 11 teams remain) New York deserves to have a starting line, especially since it's season 20.  A good time to do a throw-back to the original.  Buenos Aires is also a good city that hasn't been visited since Season 7, and could easily field another leg.

Leg 2: Buenos Aires to North-West Argentina (EL- 10 teams remain) Central and Southern Argentina have been used a lot.  Would be nice to utilize this area, as well.  Also, a good time to do a Switchback of the meat eating Roadblock from Season 7.  It also, helps us transition to our next location.

Leg 3: Salta, Argentina to Asuncion, Paraguay (EL- 9 teams remain/U-turn #1) New location, with several possibilities in terms of tasks.  Throw in a U-turn here to maybe spice things up a little.

Leg 4: Paraguay to Rome, Italy to Vatican City (NEL- 9 teams remain) Rome definitely deserves another visit, especially since it hasn't been used since Season 1, and on top of that, was only used in a couple "find the monument" tasks on that season.  Also, an actual stop in the Holy See would be nice.  Even a pitstop would suffice.

Leg 5: Rome to Pompeii/Naples/Capri, Italy (EL- 8 teams remain) I love to see the Mediterranean coast.  And this leg would feature it prominently.  Have clues and tasks throughout the region, and maybe end on the Isle of Capri.

Leg 6: Naples, Italy to Riga, Latvia (EL-7 teams remain) I'm actually quite surprised Latvia has yet to be used.  Most likely similar to the Lithuanian (S12), and Estonian (S15) from before.  Also, could be considered the "cold leg" of the season, since it would be winter up there.

Leg 7a: Riga, Latvia to Nairobi, Kenya (DL- 7 teams remain) This will be a double-length leg, or super leg as some call it.  Have the majority of this half of the leg in and around Nairobi with the midpoint within the city.

Leg 7b: Kenya (EL- 6 teams remain) Move from the city onto a national park or game preserve.  Have a task or two based off of the animals native to the region.

Leg 8: Nairobi, Kenya to Male, Maldives (EL- 5 teams remain) I feel there needs to be at least one tropical location per season, and this country would be a perfect fit for just that.

Leg 9: Male, Maldives to Christchurch, New Zealand (EL- 4 teams remain/U-turn #2)  Love seeing the green hills of New Zealand, and think that they would look wonderful in HD.  Also, they haven't been to the Southern Island in a while.

Leg 10: Christchurch, New Zealand to Chengdu, China (NEL- 4 teams remain) I feel this city is a must see in China, and a little (not very) surprised it hasn't been visited quite yet.  Many food and cultural tasks can be done here.

Leg 11: Sichuan, China (EL- 3 remain)  Not necessarily staying just to Chengdu, but traveling around the region.  Again, plenty of tasks that could be used for this area.

Leg 12: Chengdu, China to Vancouver, Canada to Seattle, U.S.A. (Finale) I believe Vancouver could be a wonderful intermediate location.  Have a couple of tasks in the downtown area before taking the ferry from Victoria across to Seattle.  Have one or two more tasks in Seattle (final memory challenge please).

11 countries (including U.S.A.): 3 of which are completely new (Paraguay, Latvia, the Maldives), 2 with actual visits for the first time (Vatican City and Kenya), 3 more that haven't been visited in several to many seasons (Italy, New Zealand, Canada), and the last two visiting new regions within the country (Salta, Argentina and Sichuan, China).


what are the odds?!?! change the starting line to Los Angeles and this race could ACTUALLY be happening right now (TAR20) up to the end of Leg 5!!  :cmaslol
im actually hoping that this is the route for TAR20, and it does seem possible (except Kenya)

i actually really like this race!! nice work  :cmas16

Something I liked in TAR 19 (and to a degree, TAR 18 albeit with poor choice of countries) is the number of double legs in a particular place allowing for a greater exploration of the area. Based on this, here's a route I came up with.

Visual version (http://www.travellerspoint.com/member_map.cfm?tripid=303808#/tripid/303808)

START: Big Bear Lake, California

Leg 1: US to Canaima, Venezuela (charter flights from Caracas, tasks in and around Angel Falls)
Leg 2: Canaima, Venezuela to Caracas, Venezuela (charter flights from Canaima ensuring that the leg is run during the day)
Leg 3: Caracas, Venezuela to Lima, Peru
Leg 4: Lima, Peru to Kinderdijk, Netherlands (via Amsterdam and Rotterdam)
Leg 5: Kinderdijk, Netherlands to Zagreb, Croatia to Ljubljana, Slovenia
Leg 6: Ljubljana, Slovenia to Bled, Slovenia
Leg 7: Bled, Slovenia to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Leg 8: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to Gondar, Ethiopia
Leg 9: Gondar, Ethiopia to Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan
Leg 10: Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan to Bukhara, Uzbekistan (via Tashkent)
Leg 11: Bukhara, Uzbekistan to Johor Bahru, Malaysia (via Kuala Lumpur)
Leg 12: Johor Bahru, Malaysia to San Jose, California (via Kuala Lumpur and San Francisco)

FINISH: Grant Ranch Park, Mt. Hamilton, California

Yes, only 9 countries (non US) are visited, but 4 are new, 3 others have only been visited once and the other two haven't been visited recently (15 and 16) and explore new locations.

My main wish is for TAR to visit Armenia. I've been waiting for so long, so I really hope they pop in there at some point! :cmaslol

Other than that, I would love for them to take the idea of TAR3 - only visit countries that have never been visited before! It was much easier to do during TAR3, because very few countries had been visited so far, but it would be a very unique and interesting race if they could do it at any point in the future! :cmas16

I can't be 100% sure of the others, but I was in Armenia just last year, and my sister was there just 2 months ago. It is completely safe there, especially if teams stay in the capital city of Yerevan. Even if they ventured out of Yerevan, there's a bit of poverty, but no real danger.

I hope TAR goes there soon!! :hearts:

I will probably want to see a true All Stars Season of TAR. The Amazing Race: All Stars World Series with all past winners.  You know, a 2nd chance to win the $1,000,000.  The season would also have to step up their challenges to be even tougher than any season in the past.  You know what, throw in some winners from the international versions as well.

Season 1
Rob & Brennan

Season 17
Nat & Kat

Season 18
Kisha & Jen

Season 14
Tammy & Victor

Season 15
Meghan & Cheyne

Season 13
Nick & Starr

Asia Season 1
Joe Jer & Zabrina

Australian Season 1
Tyler & Nathan

LatinoAmerica Season 3
Nicolas & Cristobal

Season 9
BJ & Tyler

Amazing Race China Rush Season 1
Charlie and Rachel

HaMerotz LaMillion season 1
Shay & Guy

I tried to balance all the teams out so it could be tough competition and even amount f/f m/f and m/m teams.  I also tried to balance the teams with the teams that had the most legs won on their season as well.  What do you think people?

I like the above idea..and I think one of our member here try to put it in the fantasy game series  :cmas22

Another surprise that comes through my mind is that:
at the beginning, the TAR Productions send an invitation of Banquet / Gala Dinner, where the attendance consist of previous winners from all season US series, Asian Series, Australian, Israeli, Latino, and China Rush..

What teams don't know is that the host of that night's Banquet are Phil, Allan, Grant, Raz and Harris..
Every host will introduce the teams that represent their series..
After having a chat, really nice dinner, entertainment and so on, one of the Host (Let say Phil,) come up to the stage and surprisingly announced that there will be a TAR show involving best of the best teams from all series..The winner of this TAR World Championship will crowned a TAR World Champion title and bring home another $1.000.000

Phil: In order to participate in this Amazing Race World Championship, just under your seat folks, you will see a lucky number that you have to match with the combination bla..bla..bla..
The first SIX teams from US series that can figure out the combination will win the Golden Ticket to participate in this race, the FIRST team of each International Versions who can solve the combination will have to come up to their host and take the Golden Ticket with you...

You have 3 weeks after you guess the right answer to settle every single personal matters and preparation before you meet us back in California (let say..)

What an imagination... Hahaha

I'm not a huge fan of cooking shows myself (I only watch a select few, and I hardly watch anything that doesn't involve Gordon Ramsay :lol: ) but I think it would be a rather interesting team dynamic if contestants on a cooking show came on TAR. I'm not sure how well they would go, but I'm always up for seeing different things happening on TAR, so it might be a great little twist! :duno:

I can't be 100% sure on this, but I recall someone mentioning that a leg in Belize was planned suring the Family Edition, but they had to get rid of it at the last minute due to some sort of weather conditions. I don't remember exactly, but I remember something along those lines... :duno:

What I would really like is more "Russian mystery"-like tasks (TAR17 Leg 7 where they needed to find landmarks of Saint-Petersburg). I find it fun, creates drama, and it showcase pretty well the city. Personnally, they should have done this in Brussels.

Bali, Indonesia :hoot:
Fiji :hoot:
Belize :hoot:

I wonder why TAR doesn't visit place that they use as a prize for winning a leg (except Panama, I think). But, I mean, they often give a trip to Belize, but TAR hasn't visited it at all

I can't be 100% sure on this, but I recall someone mentioning that a leg in Belize was planned suring the Family Edition, but they had to get rid of it at the last minute due to some sort of weather conditions. I don't remember exactly, but I remember something along those lines... :duno:

This is correct, it was due to a hurricane... I can't remember correctly if it was the same one that devastated New Orleans tho (that was around the same time)

Just watched the finale of TAR 12, and I was wondering whether the final roadblock will be brought again or not. I think that is the hardest memory challenge and should be appeared again as a Switchback task. With the different items, of course

I also don't mind seeing people from other reality show. Who wants to see people from Master Chef in The Amazing Race? :lol:

Although, the possibility of it becomes true is less than zero, but I still have my fingers crossed

 :cheer:

 :lol3:

That would be so funny, especially if they would do a food challenge.. Can picture it straight away!!  :lol:
Or ex-Mole contestants who are looking for hidden codes in the 'clues' they are given..  :lol3:

In fact if there would be a crossover between two or three of these shows, I would watch it in a heartbeat!!  :wohoo:

Just a few ideas I've had:

- Would love to see the race go to some of the Pacific island such as Fiji, Vanuatu and Samoa
- What if there was a U-Turn at the RB? Where the person who previously didn't complete had to go back and complete it?
- I had an absolute crazy idea for a leg, that seems ridiculous, but I dub it the European nightmare (wouldn't never work, but just fun thinking about it):-

LEG START - Dusseldorf, Germany, ROUTE INFO - Berlin, Germany, ROAD BLOCK - Lichtenstein, ROUTE INFO - Zurich, Switzerland, DETOUR - Vienna, Austria - PIT STOP - Budapest, Hungary.

Would never work, but would be great to see a leg like that take place  :lol:

Post by: Charlie90 on January 30, 2012, 02:40:50 PM
With TAR Norway and TAR Philippines being announced now we have 9 versions of TAR around the world and you know its inevitable that another All Stars edition will be produced for the US version. So i was thinking: "What if they make it with the winners of each version and each team could represent a different country?" This way we would have the best teams racing each other, and if you think about it none of these teams know what it feels like to be eliminated. So why don't you share your ideas for The Amazing Race: Winner's Circle, like your dream route, the selected teams, places you want them to visit and some of the tasks.

Here is my two cents:

TEAMS
-For TAR, TARLA, and TARA, i chose two teams each since they have the most seasons of each franchise
-For TAR i chose one team representing the Old seasons (1-10) and another one for the New ones (12-19)


1-Rob and Brennan (TAR1-US)
2-Nat and Kat(TAR17-US)
3-Patricia and Sane(TARBr-Brazil)
4-Zabrina and Joe Jer(TARA1-Malaysia)
5-Adrian and Collin(TAR2-Singapore)
6-Matias and Tamara(TARLA1-Argentina)
7-Carlos and Edmundo(TARLA2-Mexico)
8-Guy and Shay(TARI1-Israel)
9-Tyler and Nathan(TARAu1-Australia)
10-Charlie and Rachel(TARCR1-China)
11- Winners of TARP
12- Winners of TARN

That way we have 12 teams, each from a different country (except US, who gets two since there are 20 seasons).

ROUTE
-Being a season that unites all franchises i think it would be great to have exotic locations and at least one new country per continent.

Leg 1- New York,US to Paramaribo, Suriname
Leg 2- Paramaribo, Suriname to Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea
Leg 3- Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea to Surabaya, Indonesia
Leg 4- Surabaya, Indonesia to Amman, Jordan
Leg 5- Amman, Jordan to Ma'an, Jordan
Leg 6- Ma'an, Jordan to Cairo, Egypt
Leg 7- Cairo, Egypt to Libreville, Gabon
Leg 8- Libreville, Gabon to Estuaire,Gabon
Leg 9- Estuaire, Gabon to Athens, Greece
Leg 10- Athens, Greece to Crete, Greece
Leg 11- Crete, Greece to Andorra la Vella, Andorra
Leg 12- Andorra la Vella, Andorra to Los Angeles, US


Some of this countries are not safe to travel to right now..but it's just wishful thinking after all :P

So there you go..What do u think? Share your ideas  :lol:

This is a rather specific wish, but I want to see some legs that are all about running around large cities at night, cities like London or Tokyo.

They did a Tokyo leg at night during BJ and Tyler's season. Although I wish they had done better. Atleast Shibuya crossing at night was featured ;)

I wish they'll do a leg during winter in Yakutsk, Russia. The coldest city in the world.

I want to see a season where they go around the US. It worked for China and Brazil. Make it like the Family Edition, but make the challenges as difficult as in normal races, go to interesting places (not the world's largest office chair), and keep it to two per team. But I know this will never happen because of how poorly that season did.

How about a season full of countries that haven't been seen on TAR in at least five seasons (their last appearance was at least five seasons ago)?

Because there's just so much of Country X that you can see before you get bored of it.

I don't mind visiting a frequently or often visited country like India or China, as long as they visit a new region or city.

For example:
China - Manchuria, Tibet and Xinjiang.
Japan - Kyushu, Hokkaido, Okinawa and Chugoku.
Russia - Far East (Yakutsk, Vladivosktok)
Australia - West Oz and Central Oz (Alice Springs)

It would be difficult for TAR production to make a leg in Bhutan due to some reasons. It's not a fully open country.
You have to apply tourism visa atleast 30 days before coming to Bhutan. You have to pay $200 a night per person. And you are not allowed to travel by your own, a travel guide provided by the Bhutan government is required.

I want more disgusting eating tasks. The one that really eeked me was the live octopus in South Korea.
I wish (just a wish), they can do that meat ripping challenge from Survivor last season.

I never want to see a disgusting eating challenge again. I really don't think the Race needs to stoop to trying to make contetants puke...

Agreed. Leave that to Fear Factor or some other disgusting stunt show.

But those "disgusting" food that they eat are also part of other cultures around the world. And they need to be seen. Its an embedded part of life in the other parts of the world, even though its "disgusting" in the viewers lives (while its delicious through the locals' eyes). Its completely unfair if they just let them eat steak, hamburgers, fries, chocolates, or any staple in the Western life.

My problem with many of those challenges is just the sheer quantity of the food. If it's not physically possible to complete the challenge without vomiting several times, I don't want to watch it. It shouldn't be faster to skip the challenge than to finish it. I personally want to see more local cuisine, but please no shots of throwing up (this includes sound).

Yup! People complain about disgusting food while in fact the one that should be complained is how the editors edit the challenge (adding scenes of throwing up, etc.) :tup:

If I made a wishlist I could go on and on and on. Instead I wanted to put my bets on where TAR21 will visit. If something is in CAPITALS it means the countries I have listed under it are the ones i think TAR21 will visit IF they go to that continent/area. 

CENTRAL AMERICA
I thought the penultimate Panama Leg in TAR19 was great, I'm hoping a Central American Leg for TAR21, but I'm still not sure
- my best bets are Belize, Guatemala and Costa Rica

SOUTH AMERICA
After three Legs in TAR20. I'm sadly going to rule out South America for TAR21 :(

EUROPE
- the unvisited countries I think might be visited are Latvia, Malta and Cyprus
- the Mediterranean countries, the ones I am thinking of are Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece and Turkey
- Yugoslavia, my bets are Slovenia, Bosnia, Croatia, Albania and Serbia
- overdue-due-for-another-visit countries, I think are Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, Finland

AFRICA
I still have not decided yet. But I absolutely LOVE the race in Africa. 
- my best bets are Benin, Gabon and Uganda

MIDDLE EAST
- sadly, I only have one bet, and that is Qatar

ASIA
- for unvisited countries I'm thinking Nepal, Laos and Burma
- at least one leg in a large Asian city

OCEANIA
- my strongest feeling is New Zealand, which I think will be visited TAR21 or the one after that
- Phil has stated that he wants the race to go to the Pacific Islands, so I'm going to place bets for Fiji, Tahiti and Samoa

If TAR21 goes to EUROPE first, then I think we will have an east coast start. If New Zealand is the first stop then we will have a west coast start. I am confident either Europe or New Zealand will be the first stop. As for the final destination city, it will be on the west coast or in Texas.

Please share your thoughts on my ideas, I like opinions regardless if they are positive or negative :)

I think Houston should definitely be on WRP's final destination list!  :tup:
It is the 4th largest city in the USA and has never hosted part of a race 

Not only is it a huge city full of possible challenges, the race could also venture out to Trinity Bay  :conf:
IAH (George Bush Intercontinental Airport) is a huge hub and racers could fly in directly from Europe or Central/South America

I think Houston needs to host a final leg, and the Bayou Bend Mansion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayou_Bend_Collection_and_Gardens) would be the perfect Finish Line  :hrt:
The mansion is accessible through two ways I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) and could easily be closed off for a finish line. It's also secluded so no one could peek through and watch
If teams taxi's took them down Memorial Drive and turned off at Westcott Street to the garden's carpark, teams would have to run across the bridge and through the gorgeous gardens to get to a photo finish ending  :wohoo:
*Note: the Finish Line would be at the back of the mansion, like TAR19 finish line at Swan House  :)

Who's with me for Houston!  :hoot:

Post by: Glamazon Racer on March 17, 2012, 10:09:03 AM
I don't think I've actually created a whole route on this thread before (maybe I have :lol: ) but here I go:

Leg 1: Anywhere in USA Other Than LA -> Guatemala City, Guatemala (they leave the city, though)
Leg 2: Guatemala City, Guatemala -> Port of Spain, Trinidad & Tobago
Leg 3: Port of Spain, Trinidad & Tobago -> Durban, South Africa
Leg 4: Durban, South Africa -> Luanda, Angola
Leg 5: Luanda, Angola -> Yaounde, Cameroon
Leg 6: Yaounde, Cameroon -> Malabo, Equatorial Guinea
Leg 7: Malabo, Equatorial Guinea -> Banjul, Gambia
Leg 8: Banjul, Gambia -> Anywhere, Spain
Leg 9: Anywhere, Spain -> Birmingham, England
Leg 10: Birmingham, England -> Yerevan, Armenia
Leg 11: Yerevan, Armenia -> Vientiane, Laos
Leg 12: Vientiane, Laos -> Western USA (Not LA)

I know it's probably an extremely infeasible route, but it'd be a lot of fun. I cut back on Asia on my route, because I feel that recent seasons of TAR (13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 19) have spent WAAAAY too much time in Asia compared to other continents. I spent a lot of time in Africa because I absolutely love Africa, and TAR does not spend enough time there at all. I tossed in a couple of legs in Central America at the beginning, as we don't spend enough time there either.

10. ? to Kathmandu, Nepal (4, NE leg)
11. Kathmandu to Vientiane, Laos (4-3)
12. Vientiane to Salt Lake City, Utah, USA (3-1)

10 Countries (3 new, 4 if you count Kenya). I dont think they will go to oceania in AR 21 because it will be winter in the southern hemisphere during that time.

I'd love to see a great driving leg another time, as of that in TAR4, where teams had to drive about 500 miles, from north to south of France.

I think that a leg in some point in Spain (obviously I support my country, and it is underrated) could lead to a train to a Northern place (Barcelona, maybe) and then a great driving to Monte Carlo. <3

MAybe more research would be better, but definitely, I'd love another of those self-drive in the night legs.

I completely agree with you. They haven't really explored South Korea much yet. The southern part of the country is so full of culture.

I like this route!

Thanks buddy! :)

I finally have my dream route. It's nothing fancy, I'm not picky about the cities.

starting line: Washington, D.C.
Wherever, Ireland
Aarhus, Denmark
Stockholm, Sweden
Prague, Czech Republic
Thessalonika, Greece
Wherever, Seychelles
Wherever, Singapore
Tokyo, Japan
Wherever, Vanuatu
Auckland, New Zealand
Wherever, Costa Rica
finish line: Orlando, Florida

It could happen!  :tup:

Looks spectacular! :colors

I'm the kind of person who LOVES Switchbacks, and there are lots of potential Switchbacks along that route (Ireland donkeys :badhorse: , Swedish haybales (Switch-Switch-Back), something similar to 'FRANZ' in Czech Republic, 'Ox Trot' in Seychelles, red bean in Costa Rica). :lol:

That would be an epic route! :yess:

Technically speaking 5 legs in Africa is possible.

Two in Egypt followed by a leg in Tanzania and then two legs in South Africa/Botswana.

Yeah, I would love something like that! :colors

Or even if they popped into a never-before-visited country as well, that would be nice. Kenya would be nice to see. It hasn't actually hosted any TAR tasks, even though teams have flown there. :tup:

I really enjoy Africa legs, so I'd really like them to spend a lot more time in Africa than they have in recent seasons... the last time that TAR spent 3 or more legs in Africa was on TAR10 (counting the islands of Madagascar and Mauritius) or TAR7 if you don't count those islands.

correct me if I am wrong, but so far there have only been 5 all-female team winners in the entire amazing race franchise:

in order

1. Joe Jer and Zabrina (The Amazing Race Asia 1)
2. Patricia and Sane (The Amazing Race Brazil)
3. Nat and Kat (The Amazing Race 17)
4. Kisha and Jen (The Amazing Race 18)
5. Bar and Inna (The Amazing Race Israel 2)

I don't know why, but watching an all female team win (only seen 1, 3, and 4) is so incredibly satisfying because there is this dumb stereotypes that female teams are weak and unable to handle the race. While there are many who fulfill this, there are still a lot of great one (Dustin and Kandice, Charla and Mirna, Linda and Karen, etc..), not as much as the other types but there still there. There needs to be more all-female winners, that's my wish.

There are some countries that would be difficult for the Race to visit. That's why i was surprised that TAR Au went to Cuba. Hopefully the US version will go there soon.
It really sucks that some countries have huge issues going on. Mexico for example, i really want the US Race to come again (Mainly cause i want to be a TAR detective)  :lol:

It would be odd to miss the biggest continent. :lol: And besides, most of the most intense or most bizzare legs are always in Asia.
I would like them to visit India, and instead of taking cabs, they will drive their cars. :lol: Good luck with that.

For season 21, they really need to step up MORE! The show is getting a little boring. Thank goodness, season 20 has atleast drama to spice up a little. Their viewer ratings are decreasing. If they fall to the 7 million viewer mark, they might end the show.

I completely agree with this. They sometimes go three seasons without visiting a particular continent (e.g. TAR13-15 had no Africa and 16 didn't visit mainland Africa) so I'd like there to be just one season that completely avoided Asia, just to balance things out fairly. :tup: Geographically-speaking, it's quite hard to avoid Asia due to its size, but it is not impossible, so I'd like to see it for once!

How is it boring? I suggest they slow the race down. Comparing earlier seasons it seems like its rushed.

I guess I've seen too much of the amazing race and realized I'm seeing the same cycle. And nothing has really improved, instead it kinda looks like the show downgraded. That's why I want them to step up. Make interesting twists, and jaw dropping tasks. Or extra ordinary locations.
Antarctica perhaps. It is accessible via Argentina or Australia.

Also, I wished they made a 10th year anniversary season special.

I definitely agree Katarzyna, I feel like since Season 15, the race feels so rushed. I loved the old school TAR, and I dearly miss it
I don't know about every else, but Leg 7 of TAR20 felt a bit like old school TAR, I don't know why, maybe it was the conflict at the airport, or the magic of Tanzania, its just that the leg didn't feel rushed and I kinda liked it  :)

I mean the show isn't getting BORING, it's just that it somehow needs more.. excitement? I don't know, I mean some of the recent seasons have had a few fantastic legs, and then other legs it just seems like pre-production don't bother to try spice things up a bit

IMO TAR20 is a HUGE step up, even though the oldest racer is like 53 or something they've done a really good casting job, especially the FF teams (even though 2 of them didn't make it that far), the locations are diverse which I like, the challenges are pretty decent and there is always excitement (but that's one thing production can't make, that is the teams jobs, so I understand why some recent seasons have been a little dull), and I think TAR will regain its spark from here on

I team I wish for is Rin on the Rox, they are two Asian-American girls who are famous on  Youtube for singing (listen to them, they are great)
If they did race, I don't think they would make it far, but I still wouldn't mind watching them

The locations I am PRAYING for are
New Zealand
Peru (Lake Titicaca)
Slovenia
Philippines (Banaue Rice Terraces)
Sri Lanka again
Laos
Israel
Spain
Bhutan
Nepal
Ireland

and MORE AFRICA!!!!!!

Well, about the locations: mostly the countries that teams were not so often or at all [the race with new countries only would be awesome]: and of course since i am form Poland, absolutely polish leg is a definately a "must-be"! Hell, even in my city - Szczecin [recently i am in some weird state, when i see a combination of red and yellow my heart is beating faster :D]. And i think it's a very nice idea to do some two-countres legs, for example from Germany go to Poland, do detour, route info, and another route info, which tells you to fly Ukraine there do roadblock and pit-stop - more possibilties to teams place-swtching ;).

About the twists - re-watchinch TARAus1 gave an idea. Let's call it a "slower". A "Slower" would be received in the first task of the race [like they did on TAR19 with Taiwan], of course the last team would be having this. And in every stop during the race, where are clues there will 3 boxes, each contains an hourglass, and the team who is having the "slower" would have to choose one hourglas and wait time for the sand stopped pouring. [Of course the max amount of time would be max 30 min]. And after that, the team who has the "Slower" has the right to choose another team to have it of course you can only give an "slower" to the team, who has not received the next clue.

If that idea already been - i am very sorry for copying, just wanting to share with you guys. And of course sorry for bad english :).

Why dont they do a mega all-stars in season 25... think about it, 23 teams, 1 from each previous season (except family - maybe 2 poeople from the best team??), racing around the world. I know the budget would be huge, but it would cover the time of 2 seasons... also have a few more rest days to allow the teams to be at their best. A few things about it:

- Only 1 team from each season (besides family)
- The team selected is the team that won the most legs on their respective race (So it really is all-stars!)
- Visit all 6 inhabitable continents, but once in each continent, limit air travel (More amazing HD shots out of trains)
- Maybe go to Antarctica
- 26 legs - Its huge but they should have a day break each 7-8 days of racing
- Less twists, but when there are twists, make them massive!
- If teams on the same race have an equal amount of legs, the higher finishing team is chosen (Ill put an asterix next to these below)

On this, the teams would be: (Winners in bold)
1. Rob and Brennan
2. Chris and Alex*

3. Teri and Ian
4. David and Jeff
5. Colin and Christie
6. Kris and Jon
7. Rob and Amber (Sorry!)
9. Eric and Jeremy
10. Tyler and James
11. Dustin and Kandice
12. TK and Rachel
13. Nick and Starr
14. Tammy and Victor
15. Megan and Cheyne
16. Jet and Cord (Ratings Up!!!)
17. Nat and Kat
18. Zev and Justin
19. Andy and Tommy

This would be epic!

anyway, does anyone else see how one sided seasons have become?! thats the issue with the race now, its less competitive! i want it to be like old seasons, wer 6-7 teams would win a leg on the race... we need less dating teams who arent gonna hold up a fight, and more good racers! stop the interraction with other cbs shows as well!

anyway what would u think of this idea?

All stars means fan favorites. Not teams with the most wins.
Season 18 all stars had a not so good cast. I rate them 6/10.

An individual starting line task and the first two people done are a team, 3rd and 4th done are the second team, etc.

But would putting unknowns together work?  :duno:

They have to work together or they'll be eliminated. Duh. :lol:
That's the challenging part, how well can you work with a stranger.

I have always thought if that would be a possibility?

On The Biggest Loser in Season 5, two strangers came to lose weight as a couple, but eventually in that reality show, teams work as 6 member teams and individuals.

Heres mine

1 San Digeo, USA to Canberra, Australia (via LA or Hawaii for flights)
Note: Teams only are provided flights from SD via LA or Hawaii to Sydney or Melbourne before finding their own flights to Canberra) 
2 Canberra to Adelade
3 Adelade to Papua New Guiniea
4 PNG to Jakata, Indonisia
5 Jakata to Kathmandu, Nepal
6 Kathmandu to Hiymalayers, Nepal
7 Nepal to Amman,Jordan
8 (Part A) Jordan to Tel Aviv,Israel (TBC leg)
8 (Part B) Tel Aviv to Jerusalem 
9 Jerusalem to Madrid, Spain
10 Madrid to Havfax, Canada
11 Havfax to Quebec City
Final Leg Quebec City to Toronto to Washinton DC (2 hour finale)

The cool thing about mine is all the locations have not been vistied or have been vistied as a part of a stopover. and well as 4 unvisted countres (PNG, Nepal, Jordan, Israel)

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________


I also have an idea for a twist. For the 1st leg the teams are interseced and the last INTERSECED team is elinamated. It adds a 12th team that makes it to the first pit stop. And to add more fuel to the fire a intersection U turn. Where a interseced team can U turn another interseced team.

...I'd love a twist where the teams were completely shuffled for a leg and both team members in the last place team would have their partners eliminated along with themselves in an evil double elimination. Then again, maybe I'm just looking for something forcing bickering people to work together that's not an intersection. :P

I posted this in the Intersection thread but I believe it belongs here. :P

There are a LOT of countries that only have been visited once or twice. I wouldn't mind if on the next race we only have one new country visited for the first time as long as the rest of the race is made of countries that haven't been visited in a LONG time..Like Portugal, Spain, Ireland,Ukraine, Iceland!!..
The options are infinite (well, not really infinite, but you know what i mean)

Incidentally i have a feeling that Nepal will host a leg on the next race.

The the top two most visited international countries on TAR:U.S. are India and China

Now out of all the 9 seasons  which went to China (including Hong Kong and Macau), these are the only cities that have been visited:

Beijing
Hong Kong
Shanghai
Xian
Macau
Guilin
Lijiang
Kunming

Is it just me or does that seem like hardly any cities compared to all the times the race has been to China

I am pretty sure TAR21 will be paying a visit to China, so I am really hoping they visit a NEW city

I wish they visit the Tibet region of China. But it's very strict there. They won't let you travel without a tour guide. I've been there.

So, my wish is for them to visit the city of Urumqi in Northwest China. It's one of the most exotic cities in China. It's like a different country.

Tibet has a very high elevation (over 4,000 meters). It may be dangerous to race there. :)

Urumqi is a good choice! Don't know why China Rush didn't choose this place. :tup:

I'm pretty surprised they haven't been to Guangzhou yet. One thing for sure is that the China Rush pitstop in Chengdu was awesome and therefore should be returned to in the American version.

This next season totally will have the clueboxes as a final memory challenge. They've been setting up the lack of clueboxes to be the standard, and then BOOM.
Title: Re: TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**
Post by: Genius on May 07, 2012, 11:41:00 AM
This will probably be unpopular, but there could be an intersection right when the teams leave the pit stops (the first clue given to them by production). So the 1st and 2nd teams to depart will work together, and so on. The first or second clue should be a detour, and the new intersected teams can U-turn another intersected team. Of course, the teams should preferably be leaving the pit stop within perhaps less than 2 hours, and the detour should be quite challenging to give the back teams a chance.



I also realize that certain well-known attractions are not used as stops even when TAR (US) visits that specific city. Examples include:

Honolulu - Waikiki Beach, Pearl Harbor (I was hoping that it would be visited this season, but I suppose that it would be too noticeable)
Taipei - Taipei 101
Shanghai - Oriental Pearl TV Tower
London - Big Ben clock tower, Westminster Abbey

Hopefully they could be visited one day by the US version.



If they visit Stockholm again, it would be great if teams could retrace the locations featured in the Millennium series.

And finally, NO MORE JAPANESE GAME SHOWS!

TAR 21 Prediction
I'm gonna look back at this and see if I got atleast 1 correct.  :lol:

Route:
Starting Line: Chicago, US
Leg 1: Reykjavik, Iceland
Leg 2: Iceland (NEL)
Leg 3: Lyon, France - Geneva, Switzerland
Leg 4: Gdansk, Poland
Leg 5: Marrakesh, Morocco
Leg 6: Sahara desert, Morocco (Berber region)
Leg 7: Madagascar (NEL)
Leg 8: Luang Prabang, Laos
Leg 9: Guangzhou, China (TBC)
Leg 10: Guangzhou
Leg 11: Auckland, New Zealand
Final Leg: Auckland - New Orleans, US
I'm 75% sure China will be visited this season. And 100% Europe will be the first destination.

Teams:
3 F/F
3 M/M
5 M/F

Winner will be an M/M team.

A leg in Sahara Desert seems interesting!  :hearts:
And I extremely hoping for a leg in Luang Prabang!! A task in Plain of Jars is a must! :hearts:

However, two legs in Guangzhou look to overused, maybe they can visit another city, like Chengdu (panda themed task)? :duno:

I'm really hoping for another M/M team to win the race, it's been a while since season 16 when a M/M team won the race... :luvya:

I was thinking a night leg in Guangzhou, then a day leg. But your'e right though. Chengdu will be a great second China leg or Chongqing. My top China leg is Urumqi but I don't think it will ever be visited.
I am also thrilled by the thought of having a Sahara desert leg.  :lol:
And I'm also rooting for an M/M winner next season. We'll see if there'll be a likeable all male team.

The went to TAR to see if they could function as a romantic couple..Needless to say Flo found her way to a certain twin, on the other hand i'm pretty sure all the romantic feelings Zach had for Flo were crushed by her behavior on the race..

Even though the race visits India OVER and OVER again, the nation never fails to deliver some sort of great episode  :tup:

I really liked the challenges in the two India legs of TAR20, especially leg 9

that being said, basically none of those challenges were done in the crowded and chaotic streets, they were all set up in venues where like 15 people were hanging around

I love it in older TAR seasons (in India) when the challenges were set up in the crowded streets and teams were really pushed to the limit, some examples:
TAR5 Leg 9 Detour - pushing the taxi through the streets)
TAR7 Leg 8 Detour - pushing the giant elephant through the streets GRETCHEN  :hearts:
TAR13 Leg 6 Detour - Indian wedding
TAR13 Leg 7 Detour - looking for the numbers on the power lines
TAR18 Leg 7 RB - find the 'meaning of life'

Basically I wish for them to visit really crowded and chaotic places, not just India

Me too! The India legs in TAR 20 were only okay. I miss those crowded & crazy legs. I wish they visit Bangladesh more.
The chaotic hustle & bustle of the streets add more element of thrill and fun to the race.

i also wish for MORE PUBLIC TRANSPORT!!!!!!!

i understand WRP don't want filming to be spotted, but I'm only asking that they have at least ONE leg where teams have to use it
public transport in foreign countries is a challenge in itself
and it doesn't necessarily have to be used to get from place to place, they could make an RB or Detour based on public transport
TAR13 L10 Detour was pure genius, using the public transport of Moscow, i LOVED that

so PLEASE, more public transport!!
the first 15 minutes of the TAR20 finale in Japan, kind of excited me, using bus, train and ferry to get to the island! but of course another _____ equaliser stopped the fun

                    Here's two ideas.

                    One-Way/Road Closed: A team may choose to select the detour for another team. Teams may not switch to the other detour if this is assigned to them. (Pay attention to what the other teams weaknesses are)

                    No Passing Zone: (Associated with a non roadblock/detour task) Teams must await the team that arrived at the task ahead of them to complete the task before proceeding with the next part of the race even if they have completed the task.



                    More cryptic clues, new locations.

                    I do not think I would like the no passing zone because it just spreads the teams out and the positions wouldn't change that often which would get boring.

                    I see your Ireland and raise you a Hungary.

                    (I'd say Greece instead, but it's probably not a good time for them :lol:)

                    I came up with "Men At Work". Basically, it's like a Speedbump, but you post a picture of a team on a board (like a yield/Uturn) and they have to do an extra task.

                    Heres a twist i would like to see.

                    For next season the starting line should be near 2 airports which are equaliy as close to the start line(we will say Central park in NYC and the airports are JFK and Newark)

                    Teams are told that a flight departs at both airports to their first destination and both flights have a max of 7 teams on a flight but not told which flight departs or arrives first.

                    Strictly speaking, that is really not true. US Citizens can go to Cuba......they just cant spend any money without a license....same with WRP. The main obstacle is WRP has to spend money, in Cuba, to make the race.....and that is against the law. It is an economic blockade.

                    Pretty sure I haven't made a winter-related route yet, so:

                    START: Albuquerque, NM (with a starting task involving hot air ballooning).
                    Leg 1: to Fiji (also known as 'let's get the swimsuit leg done while the teams chosen for looks are still racing  :lol: )
                    Leg 2: to Bangkok, Thailand (partly for geographic convenience, partly because the legs in Bangkok aside from the one in TAR2 have been...not great, and partly to facilitate the next leg)
                    Leg 3: to Luang Prabang, Laos via Chiang Rai, Thailand (bus ride to CR along with a...RB, let's say. In my view they drive once in Laos but I could easily see another form of transport to Luang Prabang)
                    Leg 4: to Vientiane, Laos (a nice, simple, straight forward leg to explore the laid-back nature of Laos as well as to prepare teams for the next leg)
                    Leg 5: to Dunhuang, China via Urumqi, China (ideally the first clue is 'make your way to the most inland city in the world'; in general, travel to and from Dunhuang is going to be brutal, so at some point I'd have charter flights or buses or something since the location is perfect for the obligatory desert leg)
                    Leg 6: to Perth, Australia (there hasn't really been an Australian leg in the 'middle' of the race except maybe TAR2, and by that time there were only 5 teams left. Of the cities in Australia, Perth is less likely to facilitate backtracking, especially with the next destination.)
                    Leg 7: to Harare, Zimbabwe (we haven't had a real 'urban' leg in Africa since Accra in TAR 17, and Zimbabwe in general is becoming somewhat less dangerous to visit.)
                    Leg 8: to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe (...so why not have two legs there?  :lol: A Switchback to the first tasks of TAR? Why not?)
                    Leg 9: to Swaziland via Durban, South Africa (Durban is essentially a transportation node, but since there's a decent amount to do in Durban it wouldn't be appear to be the time waster that it was  ;))
                    Leg 10: to St. Andrews, Scotland via Aberdeen, Scotland (I imagine a ride down the Scottish coast, during which point there is absolutely a golf task)
                    Leg 11: to Dover, England via Glasgow, Scotland (starting off at night with alcohol possibly involved  :jam: and ending in Kent, with a RB and/or extra task centered around the Canterbury Tales since they love 'themed' legs in the UK)
                    Leg 12: to Denali National Park, AK via Anchorage, AK (most of the winter finales end in a warm city for obvious reasons; I'd like to see at least one full final leg be ran within a wintery climate. Plus, a finish in the remote national park allows for self driving so that viewers can quit complaining about cursed taxis)

                    "5 continents, (11 countries with 4 new), 22 cities, 38,000 miles, (insert team I can only tolerate slightly) you've won the Amazing Race!"

                    2 Mexico to Bogota, Colobmia
                    3 Colobmia to Lima, Peru to La Paz, Bolovia (double leg)
                    4 Bolovia to North Brazil
                    5 Brazil to Spain
                    6 Spain to Libya(of course when everything clears up)
                    7 Libya to Finland

                    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    I have an idea for a final task if Washington, D.C was final city.

                    Teams must travel to the embasy of each countries visted durring the race and collect a mini flag then at the finsh line they have to arange them in order.

                    This is my ideal itinerary for the Race:

                    Leg 1: US (Philadelphia)-Philippines (Manila)
                    Leg 2: Philippines (Baguio or Cebu, because Americans are not allowed or cautioned in going to Mindanao.)
                    Leg 3: Philippines - Singapore
                    Leg 4: Singapore - Qatar
                    Leg 5: Qatar - South Africa (Johannesburg)
                    Leg 6: South Africa (Cape Town)
                    Leg 7: Denmark (Aarhus)
                    Leg 8: Denmark - United Kingdom (prolly Cardiff or Swansea but definitely in the Wales area because they haven't been there before.)
                    Leg 9: United Kingdom - Spain (Barcelona)
                    Leg 10: Spain (Madrid or if they want, The Canary Islands!)
                    Leg 11: Spain - Uruguay (Montevideo)
                    Leg 12: Uruguay - US (Dallas)

                    I really want the Race to be back in the Philippines.   :(

                    But to keep up with those that has themes, I propose the following route that has the FIFA World Cup hosts theme:

                    Leg 1: US (Pontiac Silverdome, which hosted the first match) - Mexico (Mexico City, Estadio Azteca)
                    Leg 2: Mexico - Brazil (Rio de Janeiro, Maracana)
                    Leg 3: Brazil - Uruguay (Montevideo, Estadio Centenario)
                    Leg 4: Uruguay - Argentina (Buenos Aires, Estadio Monumental)
                    Leg 5: Argentina - South Africa (Johannesburg, Soccer City)
                    Leg 6: South Africa - Spain (Madrid, Bernabeu)
                    Leg 7: Spain - United Kingdom (London, Wembley)
                    Leg 8: United Kingdom - Switzerland (Bern, Wankdorf Stadium)
                    Leg 9: Switzerland - Sweden (Stockholm, Rasunda)
                    Leg 10: Sweden - South Korea (Daegu, Daegu WC Stadium)
                    Leg 11: South Korea - Japan (Yokohama, Yokohama International)
                    Leg 12: Japan - US (Pasadena, Rose Bowl)

                    Isn't it cute? A different country per leg?

                    I have been working on this for a while! :gaah: I hope it came out good. I think this would be good for TAR 22.

                    Leg 1: Salzburg, Austria (11-10)
                    Leg 2: Wroclow, Poland (10-9)
                    Leg 3: Poland (Rural Leg) (9-8)
                    Leg 4: Busan, South Korea (8-7) (Double U-Turn :lol:)
                    Leg 5: Angkor, Cambodia (NEL) (Fast Forword)
                    Leg 6: Christchurch, New Zealand (7-6)
                    Leg 7: Apai, Samoa (6-5) (fast forward)
                    Leg 8: Florianopolis, Brazil (DOUBLE LEG)
                    Leg 9: Florianopolis, Brazil (5-4) (Double u-Turn  :lol:)
                    Leg 10: Cusco/Machu Picchu, Peru (4-3)
                    Leg 11: Guatemala City, Guatemala (NEL)
                    Leg 12: Houston, USA (3-1)

                    About the final 3 non-elimination: I figure that in the winter editions of TAR, there will have to be a 2 hour finale to make up for the week lost for the Country Music Awards. Why not have there be three teams? Also, I think it would be interesting to see a team perform a speed bump in the final leg. :)

                    Leg 2: Finland - Latvia (Riga)
                    Leg 3: Latvia - Greece (Greek Islands)
                    Leg 4: Greece - Morocco (1/2 Desert, 1/2 Marrakesh)
                    Leg 5: Morocco - South Africa (Cape Town)
                    Leg 6: South Africa ('Wildlife leg')

                    Leg 12: China - Canada - USA (Vancouver, ending in Point Roberts, Washington)

                    A combination of new countries (Laos, Qatar, Latvia) and countries that haven't been seen in a while (Canada <3, New Zealand, South Africa, Morocco, Finland). And, in all fairness, Beijing hasn't been visited for a while, TAR14 I believe.

                    I love legs that take place in the city on foot and I want them to visit Andorra. Put them together: an on-foot leg that goes around Andorra la Vella.

                    How about a race with returning racers - however composed of a team that is composed of 1 winner & 1 11th/12th place finisher.

                    Ex:
                    Rob & Anna [from season 1]

                    lol it'd be interesting.

                    Please send a few legs in Africa.
                    Been eons since they featured more than one African nation per season. Last was season 12!

                    Also Africa as the 1st destination would be great!
                    Not since season 1!


                    Please spend 4-5 legs in Africa!

                    I think this would be the best line-up for a cast:
                    4 F/F
                    4 M/M
                    3 M/F
                    There would be an equal number of men and women  :tup:
                    HOWEVER WRP has something against F/F teams (except when they want them to win), so this line-up would be good enough:
                    3 F/F
                    4 M/M
                    4 M/M
                    They did this line-up in TAR20, which I think had a great cast (which was marred by the boot order  (:;))

                    This would be my preferable line-up (lets be realistic here):
                    F/F
                    - Mother/Daughter (haven't seen one since Andie and Jenna)
                    - Hairdressers (TAR Australia had the first, and they were awesome)
                    - young athletic female team bonded by a profession or special friendship (something NEW like Party Planners, Roller Derby Players, Exchange Sisters, women in the army, Zookeepers/Vets you name it!)

                    M/M
                    - Cousins (never seen M/M cousins)
                    - Grandfather/grandson (enjoyed watching Nicholas and Donald  :))
                    - Gay couple (older, more like Ron and Bill or the Guidos)
                    - two good friends, any age (like Mark and Bopper or Roommates like Gary and Dave) OR Single Dads

                    M/F
                    - Married elderly couple (the likes of Bill and Cathi, Meredith and Gretchen, Anita and Arthur  :luvya:)
                    - Twins (agree with chal_uf, and I like sibling teams, and twins are twice the fun)
                    - Separated/Formerly Dating (we need our dysfunctional couple every season, I loved watching Tara and Wil)
                    - young nice athletic couple (these teams always get picked and tend to go far, make sure they are LIKEABLE, Meghan and Cheyne etc)

                    Starting Points

                    How about Houston TX at the old Astrodome, or Texan Stadium.
                    Across town to IAH lots of flights.

                    Or Dallas, TX from Southfork home of the fictional Ewings.
                    Or Fort Worth Stockyards.
                    DFW in the vicinity.

                    Atlanta, GA too.

                    About the twists

                    How about changing the rules of the detour: no more situations that in the detour everybody is going for only one task, with the detour the rules would be that Detour A can be made by x teams, and Detour B can be made by y teams [and of course not every leg the detours could be split fairly that for example when we have 6 teams the splitting could be 3 teams per detour A and 3 per Detour B, could also be 1-5, 2-4 splitting].. And to make things more interesting every team from the beginning of the race could have the ability to pull one team from the detour and force them to do another one. [And of course this could happen only once per one team].

                    I like that detour idea. Maybe when a team reaches the detour place, they'll have to put a sticker of their team's pic in a board to let other teams know. And this could lead to a potential waste of time to other team when the reached a detour task that is already full.

                    I think that's simply stupid and unnecesarry.

                    4x400 relay Ethiopia roadblock before they went to SL

                    It wasn't that Leg's RB - the RB was in Sri Lanka not in Ethiopia -. They were part of the relay to obtain their next clue (travel to Colombo, Sri Lanka). That was the 11th. leg of TAR 6.

                    Notes:
                    - Starting Line city would be San Francisco, then teams would race to Vladivostok which is also known as the 'San Francisco of Russia'  ;)
                    - Denpasar is way overdue
                    - 3 countries in Leg 10 is very hectic, but achievable. The Detour would be in Barcelona, RB in Andorra, and Pit Stop in Midi Pyrenees :)

                    I would love an Andorra la Vella leg that is entirely on foot. The city is small enough it should be possible.

                    THIS!!!
                    They should do that for season 22, since because of the Country Music Awards, they air legs 11 and 12 at the same time :)

                    Leg 1 - Russia (Vladivostok)
                    Leg 2 - Indonesia (Denpasar)
                    Leg 3 - Sri Lanka (Negombo)
                    Leg 4 - Uzbekistan (Samarkand)

                    Leg 6 - Benin (Abomey-Calavi/Ganvie)
                    Leg 7 - Morocco (Casablanca)
                    Leg 8 - Morocco/Spain (Tangier/Madrid) TBC
                    Leg 9 - Spain (Toledo)
                    Leg 10 - Spain/Andorra/France (Barcelona/Andorra/Midi-Pyrenees)
                    Leg 11 - Peru (Lake Titicaca) NEL
                    Leg 12 - United States (Salt Lake City)

                    Notes:
                    - Starting Line city would be San Francisco, then teams would race to Vladivostok which is also known as the 'San Francisco of Russia'  ;)
                    - Denpasar is way overdue
                    - 3 countries in Leg 10 is very hectic, but achievable. The Detour would be in Barcelona, RB in Andorra, and Pit Stop in Midi Pyrenees :)
                    - I think it would be VERY interesting to see a Speed Bump in the final Leg... who's with me?

                    NO. That would suck. Since there are almost never HOO's in a Final Leg, the Speed Bumped team would be basically screwed.

                    Not neccesarily. Ernie and Cindy would have still won with a speed bump. Dan and Jordan might have (:;).
                    And besides, I would love to see a team all casual at the mat, thinking its an obvious final 4 non-elimination, then find out they are eliminated :lol3:

                    Very interesting route! I always want to see Russia in the first leg. :hearts:

                    I'm happy your 100th post is about me! :lol:

                    I'm glad you guys like it! If I can get around to it, I'll create a Wiki page with the whole design of the race so you can see what happens :)
                    Kamineko, I have changed the Indonesia Leg to South Kalimantan just for you :)
                    and I think a Speed Bump in the Final Leg would be fine, as long as it was the first challenge and there was a difficult challenge right after it :tup:

                    Here's a map for those who prefer visuals! (I don't know why I highlighted Netherlands as visited, my bad!)
                    Thank you... That's so nice of you. :hrt: You even changed your route just for me... :-[

                    Anyway, I just wonder, how did you create a map like that? Where did you get the blank map? I always want to make a map like that, but I can't find the blank one... :duno:

                    Hi guys!

                    I am going to ask that if you MUST use a map, that you resize it to no more than 640 X 480, okay? We need all pages loading smoothly and quickly for everyone, and a lot of large maps in the wishlist thread are going to slow things down.

                    Thanks!

                    I also hope for a start or finish some day in Texas, (or even a visit)
                    Houston is one the five biggest cities in the USA.
                    We also got Dallas, San Antonio, and Austin, all over a million.

                    At least 2 U-turns a season (was 1 of them unaired last season?). Bring back the Blind U-Turn :hrt:. I wouldn't mind having only 2 Fast Forwards a season if it means there can be 2 U-Turns.

                    Oops! I forgot about tar 5 finishing in Dallas/ Fort Worth.
                    Colin and Christie were from Texas also.
                    I think a special season could have previous season racers greeting current racers at each pit stop.
                    Just a thought.

                    I want a final roadblock in which that person must put magnets with names of countries on it onto a magnetic world map. When all countries are placed in the CORRECT spot, they will get their next clue.

                    I keep seeing these route wishlists on here - which is great - that's what the forum is for.

                    But it all seems so random and IMHO most of the routes posted are logistically impossible to complete in 23 days.

                    How about upping the ante around here?
                    When you post a route, also include transportation possibilities, like which flight or train they use to get from city to city. Make sure when you're planning you leave time for Phil to get ahead of the racers. And don't forget to give the racers and crew some time to sleep.

                    I think most of us just create them for fun and don't have so much time to include transportation choices.

                    Not bad - but where did the race begin?  :duno:

                    Los Angeles? Great - lots of flights available, but in order to get to Busan and run a leg on the 31st in daylight  they would have to take a flight leaving LA around midnight/1 am on the 30th which means that would actually have to start on the 29th.

                    Not meaning to be critical - I just love to see details and well thought out routes that can actually be done in 23 days.
                    Pretend you're World Race Production's travel coordinator and actually have to book flights.

                    If they ever do a leg in my hometown (Liverpool, UK), I'd love to see this as a route as I think it would properly show the city well...

                    (Wherever) to Liverpool, England, United Kingdom (John Lennon International Airport) (late night arrival)

                    Speke (Speke Hall) (RI Task involving supposed hauntings)

                    Allerton (Calderstones Park) (HoO) (Detour: Serve It Up (performed in Calderstones Park) or Tee It Off (performed in Allerton Park Golf Course)) (opportunity for U-Turn if desired due to distances between them)

                    Aigburth (Otterspool Promenade)

                    Liverpool (Echo Arena) (RB Beatles-themed)

                    Liverpool (Albert Dock) (RI Task nautically related to find the next pit stop)

                    Liverpool (Royal Liver Building) (PIT STOP)

                    Thoughts?

                    Route:

                    Leg 1: Virginia Beach, Virginia --> Cancun, Mexico
                    Leg 2: Cancun --> Cusco, Peru
                    Leg 3: Cusco --> Djanet, Algeria
                    Leg 4: Djanet -->Dubai
                    Leg 5: Dubai --> Prague, Czech Republic

                    Leg 13: Yakutsk --> Tacoma, Washington

                    I know I may have 1 too many legs, but whatever. That would be my dream route...but I'm pretty sure everyone wants TAR to go to Antarctica. Omg. Sledding down a freakin mountain in antarctica.  :yess:


                    Twists: I got nothing. Ill try to think.


                    Teams: More family teams! I love father/daughter and brother/sister teams!


                    Tasks: Well sledding down an antarctican mountain of course! But the scarier the task the better for me. Lol, guess they are gonna have to do a space jump!  :lol3: just kidding. But the bungee swing in Nepal would be cool. Another luck determined task would be cool, except harder than the hay bails.

                    The purpose of a U-Turn is NOT to eliminate the team! As Phil says, its purpose is to push a team BEHIND, which in most cases it eliminates the team.

                     :hello2: everyone! I want to add one of my TAR route wishlists on here:

                    Leg 1 (USA --> Chile) / San Diego, CA to Santiago
                    * Starting Line task: Coronado Naval Base (Row raft in S.D. Bay, find clues w/ plane tickets)
                    Leg 2 (Chile --> Venezuela) / Caracas & El Avila National Park
                    Leg 3 (Venezuela) / Los Roques archipelago by assigned race ferries
                    Leg 4 (Venezuela --> France) / Paris & Dijon + Besancon area
                    Leg 5 (France --> Germany) / Stuttgart area... like in s16's mystery dest. bus
                    Leg 6 (Germany --> Algeria) / Algiers
                    Leg 7 (Algeria) / Atlas Mountains
                    Leg 8 (Algeria --> Kenya) / Nairobi
                    Leg 9 (Kenya --> Thailand) / Bangkok
                    Leg 10 (Thailand) / Kota Kinabalu
                    Leg 11 (Thailand --> Philippines) / Manila + Quezon City
                    Leg 12 (Philippines --> USA) / San Diego, CA
                    * Finish Line: Hotel del Coronado (yes, 'haunted' Kate Morgan hotel)

                    Looks similar to s16's route, but I would :hrt: this route.

                    Come on..instead of keep reusing the same recently visited countries they should make a route of countries they haven't used in ages! At least that would've take a bit of the disappointment of not having at least one new country. Give Kenya, Finland, Ukraine, Ecuador, Jamaica, Canada, Hungary, and a bunch of other barely-visited countries a chance.
                    Yes, i know China and India have a lot to offer, but seriously they need a rest. They're beautiful countries on their own but there is a lot other cultures too see. I'm enjoying the season so far, but they could have change China for the Philippines and Bangladesh for Sri Lanka.
                    Turkey and Spain, and to a extent France are the only countries that kinda save the route.

                    So if they repeat the no-new country route i hope they create and interesting route.

                    I had an 2 ideas.

                    My first one is just evil. 2 races will begin and run at the same time as each other. None of the teams will know that there is another race being run.  When each race has 4-6 teams left (both races need to have the same amount) the 2 race will merge and reset and the race will continue as normal. The twist would work espicaly well in special all star season with the 1st race being a TARUS all stars while the seacond race will be a International all stars season.
                    The 1st race will be hosted by Phil and 2nd race being hosted by either Alian Wu (who is the second most experenced TAR host with 7 seasons hosted; 4 TARA, 3 TARCR) or Grant Bowler(a fellow New Zealander of Phil and host of TARAU). When the two races merge Phil will continue to host solo or co-host with the second host.

                    Another twist (which isn't evil)is races that could be based on historical events or people in history.
                    Example: A silk road (which at some records say travels from Rome, Italy to Japan) based race will go from Italy thought Greace,Turkey,Egypt and the Middle East. Then onwards to India and China to Japan.

                    The first idea is, frankly, horrible. The people from the US don't care at all for the Intl-TAR versions and I highly doubt people from Australia would care much about TARCR, TARA, TARP, TARI, TARV, TARU, TARN, TARLA or TARF and ditto from other places hosting TAR versions. And also, supposedly a team from TARLA is a Lumelia and extremely popular, however they only speak Spanish. When they get casted for this AS, the language barrier will stop them interacting with other teams and also with the non-Spanish viewers. This will be extremely annoying for the viewers that don't speak Spanish because I'm pretty sure that they don't really want to watch some Spanish speaking people surrounded by English speaking people especially like somewhere in Australia where practically nobody speaks Spanish.

                    The second idea is much better and I like the idea of themed races. The only problem is: how to incorporate the US into this. It's pretty pointless for a TAR to not start in its home country/region. And also countries along themed races are generally very similar (the reason why TAR doesn't spend too much time in each region) ie Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, both along the Silk Road.

                    Ok say that all the team speak English for the 1st idea, would that make it better or maybe race 1 is a regular race and race 2 an all star race.

                    What???!!!!!

                    First, your statement sounds exactly like Jaime saying that China sucks just because of the language barrier. And is also childish; specially when there's a lot of ways to learn languages (ask Cindy and Ernie next time they chat with us about they're preparation for TAR19) to solve this fact.  I'm a native spanish speaker, but I also learned English in my school years - and French, but the basics of it -; so if aussies don't learn to speak Spahish as we do with the English during elementary and high school, it's not our problem, it's yours. 

                    Second, for the rest of your reasoning, totally agree with you.

                    Another route:

                    Leg 1: USA (Los Angeles) - New Zealand (Auckland)
                    Leg 2: New Zealand - Laos (Vientiane)
                    Leg 3: Laos (Pakse)
                    Leg 4: Laos - Vietnam (Hanoi)
                    Leg 5: Vietnam - India (Delhi -Chandigarh)
                    Leg 6: India (Shimla)
                    Leg 7: India - Jordan (Amman, Petra)
                    Leg 8: Jordan - Finland (Helsinki)
                    Leg 9: Finland - Morocco (Rabat)
                    Leg 10: Morocco (Rural leg)
                    Leg 11: Morocco - France (Nice)
                    Leg 12: Morocco - USA

                    Hmmm... I like the routing, but it's more like a revision of season 10.

                    One thing I would change for TAR routing is the Chile & Argentina pairing. I just don't like it whenever they travel to Chile, the route just has to go to Argentina.  :groan:

                    About themed races, I have to say that this reminds me a lot to Pekin Express. They have made some routes like the Dragon Route, something in South America, Africa Routes, there are enty of them. I just find them quite straightforward and with few transportation choices (if we thi pplaces are close to each other, is it feasible to take flights between them??)

                    I personally like Japan, I think BeNeLux could work sometime soon, there's a long time since Finland was last visited, I think Egypt also needs a visit, as well as some Arabian country (Arabian peninsula, that is), or Suthern India (rural, please).

                    Something like US to Central America, to Netherlands to Luxembourg to Finland to Egypt, to Qatar, Sri Lanka, somewhere else and Japan would definitely call my attention 100%.

                    Like the Caribbean, then Finland then Egypt... Then Japan, maybe Canada and US. Love climatic changes sooo much.

                    The first idea is, frankly, horrible. The people from the US don't care at all for the Intl-TAR versions and I highly doubt people from Australia would care much about TARCR, TARA, TARP, TARI, TARV, TARU, TARN, TARLA or TARF and ditto from other places hosting TAR versions. And also, supposedly a team from TARLA is a Lumelia and extremely popular, however they only speak Spanish. When they get casted for this AS, the language barrier will stop them interacting with other teams and also with the non-Spanish viewers. This will be extremely annoying for the viewers that don't speak Spanish because I'm pretty sure that they don't really want to watch some Spanish speaking people surrounded by English speaking people especially like somewhere in Australia where practically nobody speaks Spanish.

                    The second idea is much better and I like the idea of themed races. The only problem is: how to incorporate the US into this. It's pretty pointless for a TAR to not start in its home country/region. And also countries along themed races are generally very similar (the reason why TAR doesn't spend too much time in each region) ie Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, both along the Silk Road.

                    What???!!!!!

                    First, your statement sounds exactly like Jaime saying that China sucks just because of the language barrier. And is also childish; specially when there's a lot of ways to learn languages (ask Cindy and Ernie next time they chat with us about they're preparation for TAR19) to solve this fact.  I'm a native spanish speaker, but I also learned English in my school years - and French, but the basics of it -; so if aussies don't learn to speak Spahish as we do with the English during elementary and high school, it's not our problem, it's yours. 

                    Second, for the rest of your reasoning, totally agree with you.

                    Yes, that's the point, it's our problem. 7 (The channel that airs TAR here) is not going to want to import a TAR edition full of teams that are speaking Chinese or French or Hebrew or Norwegian because they're a) cheapo and b) frankly, for the exact same amount that the average TARLA viewer cares about TARI: NOTHING.

                    My route to TAR 22

                    Leg 1: USA (Los Angeles) > New Zealand (Auckland)
                    Leg 2: New Zealand  > Vanuatu (Port Vila)
                    Leg 3: Vanuatu > Philippines (Manila)
                    Leg 4: Philippines (Quezon City)
                    Leg 5: Philippines > Laos (Vientiane)
                    Leg 6: Laos > Poland (Wrocław)
                    Leg 7: Poland (Łódź)
                    Leg 8: Poland > Portugal (Lisbon)   :conf:
                    Leg 9: Portugal > Angola (Benguela)

                    2 races will begin and run at the same time as each other. None of the teams will know that there is another race being run.  When each race has 4-6 teams left (both races need to have the same amount) the 2 race will merge and reset and the race will continue as normal. The twist would work espicaly well in special all star season with the 1st race being a TARUS all stars while the seacond race will be a International all stars season.
                    The 1st race will be hosted by Phil and 2nd race being hosted by either Alian Wu (who is the second most experenced TAR host with 7 seasons hosted; 4 TARA, 3 TARCR) or Grant Bowler(a fellow New Zealander of Phil and host of TARAU). When the two races merge Phil will continue to host solo or co-host with the second host.


                    I'm sorry but I really don't like this idea. If TARUS merged with TARA halfway through, most viewers would want all the teams not from their country out first. I would at least. It isn't like I don't like Asians. But if you get to know all these teams and suddenly a bunch of teams you know nothing about are thrown in, it would be...well...not fun if one of them won. most people from the USA really don't care about who wins TARA. But if someone from TARA wins our version of the show, it would suck. Just like the all-star idea being thrown around for a while with 6 USA teams and 6 from other versions, the average viewer wouldn't know 6 teams and therefore, it wouldn't be much of an all stars season.

                    I would really love them to do 2 themed legs in Japan.

                    First would be a modern pop culture leg in Tokyo. A roadblock could be about animes, mangas or personally I think Pokemons would be super fun. A detour in Harajuku involving the gyarus or a choice between JPOP or JROCK.

                    Second leg would be a cultural one. Lots of choices to choose but Kyoto would be the ultimate. A drinking game with a maiko or dress up as a geisha, hah but this would be really weird. Maybe a creepy Halloween tasks involving Japanese ghosts or demons or Yokai as we call it.

                    Nice route. We never got to see that much of Ecuador in all-stars.  :yess: No more Brazil and India though. We're basically emptied out of creative tasks in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. And I'm taking a break of India for now. South Korea is a cool first destination.

                    Its a awesome route (Laos is a must for TAR22). But good luck going to Libya (after their revilution, they are still rebuilding their country, maybe in a couple of seasons),Greece (with their ecomomic issues), Iran (I'm pretty sure the US and Israel arnt realy friends with Iran right now) and N.Korea(come on it's N.Korea, do I need a better reson)

                    2. Lifelong friends (friends that they can finish each other's sentences)

                    This is not a wish list thread. :tup:

                    I know, but it's a possible cast. I do sense another granny team again since the last two grannies TAR had was Peggy & Claire (season 2) and they depended mostly on luck to keep them in the race like Kaylani & Lisa. Maybe they want to spruce up the race this season to make it look like a surprise cast with all interesting relationships. It is season 22. ;)

                    Watching the campaign 2012 special hoping there will be a rare moment of TAR promos. I just have this feeling...

                    CBS Evening News host sounded like Phil with his campaign introduction. "50 states, 2 candidates, this is... Campaign 2012!" and then it cuts to special intro.  :lol:

                    But she's not even that old! She's the same age as Amy from this season! Flo was born berfore her! (Not mad at you, just at TARAus and at plastic surgery)





                    As for wishes for the show, I want to see Spain again. There has never been a full leg there. When are we going to get Spain? The show has had more legs in Indonesia, and the first time they went there was season 19.

                    For me, the main wish I have is for more unpredictability - I can usually tell when watching a given new episode which team will be last - even when I don't spoil myself!

                    Also, fewer "staged" tasks - tasks where production has to set up a huge carnival-like thing with tents and costumes and all. (Sorry, that's just the best way I can think of to describe it. An example would be TAR 16 Leg 5 - the whole leg took place in an empty field where a big battle scene was just set up! It wasn't even really there in the first place!) There has been way too much of this since TAR 14 in my view. I want to see real places and tasks, not fake ones that could just be set up in Los Angeles! We don't need to go all the way to China to set up a fake Chinatown! :lol:

                    (Note: I am only assuming that this has continued from TAR 17 to the present as I haven't watched those ones.)

                    Didn't know where to post this, but since it's some "wish" of mine, I guess it fits in here:

                    TAR should have more night legs, and stop purposely making HoO to have teams race in the daylight.

                    I don't know, seems like back then legs were tougher (obviously…), tough enough to have teams race until dusk. It's also an interesting feat to see whatever location they're at in both day and night. (Imagine they didn't make TAR20 racers wait until sunrise for their clue in Japan, that leg would've been beautiful.)

                    Just a fan of night legs  :-[

                    Here is a route from me:

                    Leg 1: USA (Los Angeles) - Canada (Toronto)

                    Los Angeles (Los Angeles International Airport) to Toronto, Canada (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Flag_of_Canada.svg/22px-Flag_of_Canada.svg.png)  (Toronto Pearson International Airport)
                    Toronto (Yonge-Dundas Square)
                    Toronto (CN Tower) (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c3/RBlock.png/15px-RBlock.png)
                    Toronto (Scarborough Bluffs) (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cd/Detour.png/15px-Detour.png)
                    Toronto (House of Flags & Banners)
                    Toronto (Casa Loma) (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5b/TAR-pitstop-icon.png/40px-TAR-pitstop-icon.png)
                    *At Yonge-Dundas Square teams had to search the screens for their next clue (CN Tower with a flag background)
                    *Roadblock One member has to climb the entire set of stairs to the top to retrieve clue.
                    *Detour Climb or Cycle. Climb teams descend the cliff to their clue while Cycle teams had to bike the 1km course to get their clue
                    *At the House of Flags teams have to identify all 13 provincial and territory flags to get their next clue.

                    sry but that would be a trainwreck leg  :(

                    Here's a unique route plan for another Chilean start (save it for season 25 or later. :tup:)

                    Leg 1: (United States --> Chile)
                    Starting Line - Boulder City, Nevada, U.S. (Lake Mead Marina)
                    • Las Vegas (McCarran Int'l Airport) to Santiago, Chile (Comodoro Arturo Merino Benitez Int'l Airport)
                    • Santiago (Estadio Pudahuel) (DETOUR: Drill Kicks/Drill Teams)
                    • Quilicura, Santiago (Punto Maestro Construcción)
                    • Quilicura, Santiago (Sign Shop) (ROADBLOCK: "Who points you in the right direction?")
                    • Santiago (Palacio de la Moneda) (PIT STOP :wohoo:)

                    START LINE TASK: Locate jet ski keys in one of 50 speedboats in the marina and ride a pair of jet skis to marked vehicles on the other side of the lake to drive to McCarran Int'l Airport purchasing flights to Santiago.

                    DETOUR: In Drill Kicks, teams must work together to pass the ball to each other around cones to the satisfaction of the soccer (fútbol) coach and score a total of 3 goals to get your clue. In Drill Teams, teams must participate in an intense soccer training workout (which makes no sense :lol:) by individually pulling a weight sled across the width of the field. After getting to the other side, teams must indivdually add a 100 lbs. barbell weight onto their own sled and drag the sled back to the starting position to get your next clue.

                    ROADBLOCK: Construct an accurate arrow signpost using the materials and tools brought from the previous task and a simple map. (Similar to Charla/Mirna's sign freakout in all-stars task :hearts:)
                    ---------------------------------
                    • Additional task:
                     *At Punto Maestro, teams must carry a 5-meter long wooden pole, a large box of signs, and heavy duty tools to a local sign shop.

                    I was thinking of a route that goes in alphabetical order, and without crossing the international date-line.

                    Leg 1 - Austin, Texas (starting line) - Bremen, Germany
                    Leg 2 - Chisinau, Moldova
                    Leg 3 - Davos, Switzerland
                    Leg 4 - Edinburgh, UK
                    Leg 5 - Fuzhou, China
                    Leg 6 - (by train to) Guangzhou, China
                    Leg 7 - Hakodate, Japan
                    Leg 8 - Incheon, South Korea - (drive to Busan, and take a ferry to) Jeju Island, South Korea
                    Leg 9 - (fly to Darwin and drive to) Kakadu, Australia
                    Leg 10 - Lusaka, Zambia
                    Leg 11 - Mbababe, Swaziland
                    Leg 12 - (Drive or take a bus to Johannesburg, and fly to) Nashville, Tennessee (finish line)

                    Climbing those few thousand steps would make the task the most physically grueling ever for those unlucky souls.  :tantrum And after that they will have to engage in more physical climbing/cycling.

                    Hi guys!

                    I am going to ask that if you MUST use a map, that you resize it to no more than 640 X 480, okay? We need all pages loading smoothly and quickly for everyone, and a lot of large maps in the wishlist thread are going to slow things down.

                    Thanks!

                    Here is a route from me:

                    Leg 1: USA (Los Angeles) - Canada (Toronto)

                    Los Angeles (Los Angeles International Airport) to Toronto, Canada (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Flag_of_Canada.svg/22px-Flag_of_Canada.svg.png)  (Toronto Pearson International Airport)
                    Toronto (Yonge-Dundas Square)
                    Toronto (CN Tower) (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c3/RBlock.png/15px-RBlock.png)
                    Toronto (Scarborough Bluffs) (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cd/Detour.png/15px-Detour.png)
                    Toronto (House of Flags & Banners)
                    Toronto (Casa Loma) (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5b/TAR-pitstop-icon.png/40px-TAR-pitstop-icon.png)
                    *At Yonge-Dundas Square teams had to search the screens for their next clue (CN Tower with a flag background)
                    *Roadblock One member has to climb the entire set of stairs to the top to retrieve clue.
                    *Detour Climb or Cycle. Climb teams descend the cliff to their clue while Cycle teams had to bike the 1km course to get their clue
                    *At the House of Flags teams have to identify all 13 provincial and territory flags to get their next clue.

                    sry but that would be a trainwreck leg  :(

                    Why!?

                    theres more to canada than climbing a staircase

                     :cmastree Here's my long, Christmas-y wishlist for a nicer TAR Canada route: :cmastree

                    Leg 1 (Canada --> Bahamas) / Toronto [Leslie Street Spit] to Nassau
                    ROADBLOCK IDEA at Paradise Island Lagoon: paddle using your hands on a life preserver to the bridge where you must attach rappel devices onto your waist and rappel yourself up to get your clue on the arch and rappel back down onto your lifebuoy and row to the starting point of the RB. Anytime you fall off, you must swim back to the side you were previously on.

                    Leg 2 (Bahamas --> Cuba) / to Havana
                    ROADBLOCK IDEA at Plaza de la Revolucion: Graffiti art RB

                    Leg 3 (Cuba --> Italy) / to Rome
                    ROUTE INFO IDEA at Ara Pacis: (When in Rome... :lol:) Transport 100 small plaster tiles using a stallion-drawn mini-cart through the crazy streets of Rome up the Spanish Steps to receive your next clue.
                    ROADBLOCK IDEA at Spanish Steps: Using the plaster tiles from the previous task, one team member has to complete a ground mosaic by using the tiles like puzzle pieces. Any tiles missing will need to be brought to the Roadblock location on foot by going back to Ara Pacis and collecting the tiles needed to complete the mosaic. Once approved, teams will get their clue.

                    Leg 4 (Italy) / train to Gaiole in Chianti, Tuscany for vineyard tasks and Barbischio castle wedding reception setup task

                    Leg 5 (Italy --> Hungary) / to Budapest and Viségrad
                    ROUTE INFO IDEA: Teams must bid for their next clue at an auctionhouse against other teams and local "bidders".

                    Leg 6 (Hungary --> Slovakia) / train to Kosiçe and famous ice caves as the Pit Stop

                    Leg 7 (Slovakia --> Qatar) / to Doha [SUPERLEG ANYONE? :xmas49]
                    DETOUR IDEA at Dhow Harbour: [Stack It or Make It] "Stack It" had teams direct a dhow driver to the nearby flour factory and stack 100 flour bags onto the dhow (which can slow the dhow down) and trasnport them to a shoreside shack on the northwest coastline to receive their clue. In Make It, teams had to direct their dhow driver to an island where teams must complete mending 5 "oil" umbrellas by painting them a crude oil color. After painting, they must transport the umbrellas to a nearby enrichment centre to get their next clue.

                    Leg 8 (Qatar --> China) / to Lhasa, Tibet Region with numerous yak agriculture tasks in villages

                    Leg 9 (China) / to Beijing :groan:... just for a "pin"ful acupuncture session :cmas27 and then bus to Harbin for ice sculpture task
                    DETOUR IDEA at a local bakery: [Fold or Deliver] "Fold" made teams properly create 100 zongzis (25 each filled with either pork, chicken, bean paste, or Chinese five sauce) to get their clue. In Deliver, teams must deliver take-out boxes to 3 different addresses (all written in Mandarin Chinese) by riding basket-storage bikes. After delivering them and returning to the bakery, teams need to have receipts for proof of delivery to get their clue.

                    Leg 10 (China --> United States) / to San Francisco and Alcatraz Island
                    ROADBLOCK IDEA on Alcatraz Island: Team members must figure out the three cells Al Capone stayed in using the cell # history hidden somewhere in the jail cells in a mysterious diary. They must go to the lighthouse and open a safe by dialing the last number of each cell number in chronological order by year. Once unlocking the safe, the next clue will be revealed.
                    ROUTE INFO IDEA at Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory: Eat through as many fortune cookies for a fortune containing the information of the next Pit Stop.

                    Leg 11 FINAL LEG (United States --> Canada) / to Calgary, Alberta and Banff National Park as Finish Line.

                    I wish that they could stop making the 2/3/4 legs cycles in South America at the beginning of the race. The race visited that continent 9 times (seasons 2, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 16, 18 & 20) and only once was it featured at the end (TAR18 - TAR19 could count since Panama is pretty near from SA), and it was for only one leg. Those are two (Rio & Panama that is) of my favourite legs in that continent because it actually felt different then the others: there were only 4 teams left.
                    Making those South American cycles always at the beginning of the race always feel repetitive (mainly in the last 2/3 cycles) because there's always a whole bunch of teams to follow. Never did we get six or five teams left racing in that continent, and those legs never got that intensity when teams are closer to the finish line. (Not saying that they are all boring, the Paraguay leg was probably the best one of TAR20)
                    Just my 2¢ :cmas27

                    6-8 hopeful teams compete for the final spot in the next regular season in a 6 leg mini season of the race.

                    Having been to Houston for a week to help my medically-needy uncle, there's nothing really to do there except visiting the museum district. The Hous. space control center is privately owned by the government. The nearest "interesting" location would be the Texas gulf which is about a 2 - 3 hour drive.

                    Both seem to be OK, ZBC, depending on where you would go.

                    Mexico seems to be quite safe around the Cancun and Teotihuacan areas, and Mali has calmed down ever since the government bet Azawad.

                    What could they call a third all-stars. We already have All Stars, Unfinished Business. How about 25th anniversary for season 25? (Pitiful) I am sure there are better ideas out there.

                    It's looking like future routes wont't be having new locations. But not to worry, this leg is made up of all previously visited countries and isn't bad if you ask me.

                    1. Los Angeles(United States) - Manila(Philippines) - Boracay(Philippines)
                    2. Boracay - Cebu(Philippines)
                    3. Cebu - Kuching(Malaysia)
                    4. Kuching - Colombo(Sri Lanka)
                    5. Colombo - Izmir(Turkey)
                    6. Izmir - Warsaw(Poland)
                    7. Warsaw - Gdansk(Poland)
                    8. Gdansk - Copenhagen(Denmark)

                    TAR needs to amp up their editing skills..

                    1. Give every team, yes I mean every team, an even edit. One of the more recent seasons that was able to pull this off was probably TAR 17, I swear, every team was memorable.. even Ron & Tony :cmaslol

                    2. Stop rushing everything.. I hate those episodes where it's simply like 1,2,3 where they just show teams departing, buying tickets, and off to their next destination, all in just 1 minute..

                    3. Ew, I hate that nighttime transition, where clouds pass by the moon – overused.

                    Well that's all I have to say for editing skills..

                    I'm thinking of putting Bolivia for the penultimate leg (especially in Uyuni), because I'm imagining when they're starting the final leg in the salt flat, it'll be unique when they're told to go to the Salt Lake City. :cmaslol

                    I have an idea.

                    Each time a team wins a leg additional money (say 100,000) is added to that teams grand prize should they win the race.

                    Examples

                    Josh and Brent only won the final leg so they only win the million
                    While Dave and Rachel (won 8 legs and the finale so they would win 1 million plus 800,000 bonus (for winning 8 legs)

                    3. Ew, I hate that nighttime transition, where clouds pass by the moon – overused.

                    Well that's all I have to say for editing skills..
                    Especially during the cloudy to rainy transition for TAR12, Burkina Faso (leg 3). Even though it has not happened twice before, the camels running and villagers avoiding the wind was just.... :cmas13 too much. :cmas30: To top it all off, Shana & Jennifer then complains... again... in the rain. A good cloud to rain transition is cool, but the mammal scurrying was too much to bear.

                    Anyone remember the coracle task in Leg 1? I think that task had potential but teams were too far apart it was kind of a useless thing (didn't change much of the order except the top teams).. even though it helped for some "funny" bits like Michael & Kevin and others..

                    So, I would love to see it return..

                    Except..

                    1. Taking place at nighttime
                    2. Putting the task when there's around 5 teams left.. it could call for suspense :cmas9 coracle-race? :cmaslol
                    3. Make this the transportation in getting to the Pit Stop.

                    That's basically what TAR Australia 2 did in their first leg at Misibis Bay, but with all 11 teams. Lucy & Emilia and Paul & Steve had a boat race at night to the Pit Stop and greatly affected Paul & Steve, Sue & Teresa, and Ross & Tarryn's first Pit Stop placement.  :cmas16

                    Here's an iconic route that people will remember forever and wonder in awe..... I hope:

                    :cmas9 STARTING LINE: Creek Ranch near beautiful Lake Hatchineha which connects a stream to Florida's well-known freshwater lake, Lake Kissimmee. (HATERS SAY: Pssh... What a boring start line! :cmas3)
                    :cmas18 :cmas18 START LINE TASK: "Dissect" through clay frogs (total of 1,000) for one with orange "blood". When revealed, they must trade it to Phil to receive tickets on one of 3 flights to a mystery destination. (NOTE: Last team to find one will receive tickets on the third flight, carrying only that specific team an hour behind.) :cmaslol :cmas32:

                    Leg 1 (United States --> The Bahamas) / Orlando, FL to Marsh Harbour, Abaco Island (Nature themed)
                    Leg 2 (The Bahamas) / to Nassau (Festival life and Paradise Island)
                    Leg 3 (The Bahamas --> Cuba) / to Havana (pre-race booked tickets, Cityscape & retro car calamity :yes:... but receiving no money for this leg :lol:)
                    Leg 4 (Cuba --> Angola) / to Luanda followed by train to Malanje (African savanna landmarks w/ driving jeepneys and climbing tasks)
                    Leg 5 (Angola) / Malanje (economic life theme)
                    Leg 6 (Angola --> Kenya) / train back to Luanda to Mombasa (transportation use & restoration theme... HATERS SAY: :cmas3 :cmas15 :cmas30:)
                    Leg 7 (Kenya --> Qatar) / to Doha and surrounding areas (Dhow Harbour shipping Detour, Souk Waqif, jockey camel racing preparation RB in desert with Pit Stop in the middle of nowhere :lol:)
                    Leg 8 (Qatar --> Burma) / final Doha landmark then off to Yangon (broad culture theme)
                    Leg 9 (Burma) / bus to Bago then drive to Mawlamyine (more in depth culture, durian juice Speed Bump, Shampoo Island Pit Stop)
                    Leg 10 (Burma --> Thailand :gaah:) / bus to Mae Sot and drive to Tak (Detour) and Kamphraeng Phet (Roadblock & Pit Stop)
                    Leg 11 (Thailand) / to Bangkok :groan: (Switchback to season 1 coin FF as an Roadblock, new landmarks and districts... HATERS SAY: Way to ruin an awesome route!... oh well, it wasn't that awesome anyways :cmas3)
                    Leg 12 (Thailand --> United States) / to END CITY: San Diego, CA!!! :mas25

                    MEMORY TASK (ROADBLOCK): At Mid-Bayfront Marina, team members have to use a petal boat to ride to buoys placed randomly in the water. Each buoy will have its own number (leg number). The task is to get a Pit Stop picture from the dock and place it on the buoy with the correct leg number which it was visited. When all the pictures are in the correct places, their next clue will be revealed under a fishing rod.
                    FINISH LINE: Pacific Gateway Park (Follow the twisted mark trails until you see the Finish Line! Run Forrest Run!!! :cmas18)

                    (Another reason why I chose Marsh Harbour as a destination was to commemorate the amazing R&B artist, Aaliyah. :cmas4)

                    Same here. Only 8 countries in 12 legs! If you do that, at least do what TAR 19 did by having to go into Germany and the Netherlands.

                    Thoughts on the route if you'd like to give them!

                    Leg 1: Auckland, New Zealand (Albert Park - Start Line) to Perth, Australia (The Art Gallery of West Australia - Elimination)
                    Leg 2: Perth, Australia to Tokyo, Japan (Mount Nokogiri - Elimination)
                    Leg 3: Tokyo, Japan to Osaka, Japan (Osaka Castle - Elimination)
                    Leg 4: Osaka, Japan to Dubai, United Arab Emirates (Meydan Racecourse - Elimination)
                    Leg 5: Dubai, United Arab Emirates to Bulawayo, Zimbabwe (Nesbit Castle - Elimination)
                    Leg 6: Bulawayo, Zimbabwe to Botswana (Edge of the Makgadikgadi Pan - Non Elimination)
                    Leg 7: Botswana to Cape Town, South Africa (Victoria and Alfred Waterfront - Elimination)
                    Leg 8: Cape Town, South Africa to Berlin, Germany (Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church - Non Elimination)
                    Leg 9: Berlin, Germany to Edinburgh, Scotland (National War Museum of Scotland - Elimination)
                    Leg 10: Edinburgh, Scotland to London, England (The London Eye - Non Elimination)
                    Leg 11: London, England  to New York City, New York, USA (Central Park, Bethesda Fountain - Non Elimination)
                    Leg 12: New York City, New York, USA to Montreal, Quebec, Canada (Place Des Arts - Elimination)
                    Leg 13: Montreal, Quebec, Canada to Wellington, New Zealand (Westpac Stadium - Finishing Line)

                    Well I think you use too obvious places (Japan, Dubai, New York City, London etc) you should try to spam random places in a route, like TARAus1 and 2 did (Israel, Czech Republic, Poland, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Turkey, Cuba) and I really don't like the double NEL.

                    I loved the route!  Until I realised it had 4 double legs and no Europe.  :cmas3

                    Well, just swap the first Thailand leg to the Bangkok one while Leg 11 goes to the Philippines.

                    As for a Europe leg, replace the first Angola leg with Rome, Italy (Ancient Olympic themed with Colosseum Pit Stop) OR Lisbon, Portugal.

                    Revised route to fit a LOT more people's taste as only 1:4 people in my family like the "old" route. :groan: *facepalm*

                    :cmas9 STARTING LINE: Creek Ranch near beautiful Lake Hatchineha which connects a stream to Florida's well-known freshwater lake, Lake Kissimmee. (HATERS SAY: Pssh... What a boring start line! :cmas3)
                    :cmas18 :cmas18 START LINE TASK: "Dissect" through clay frogs (total of 1,000) for one with orange "blood". When revealed, they must trade it to Phil to receive tickets on one of 3 flights to a mystery destination. (NOTE: Last team to find one will receive tickets on the third flight, carrying only that specific team an hour behind.) :cmaslol :cmas32:

                    Leg 1 (United States --> The Bahamas) / Orlando, FL to Marsh Harbour, Abaco Island (Nature themed)
                    Leg 2 (The Bahamas) / to Nassau (Festival life and Paradise Island)
                    Leg 3 (The Bahamas --> Cuba) / to Havana (pre-race booked tickets, Cityscape & retro car calamity :yes:... but receiving no money for this leg :lol:)
                    • CHANGED Leg 4 (Cuba --> Portugal) / to Lisbon (featuring its different districts and municipalities)
                    • CHANGED Leg 5 (Portugal --> Angola) / to Luanda followed by train to Malanje (African savanna landmarks w/ driving jeepneys and climbing tasks)
                    Leg 6 (Angola --> Kenya) / train back to Luanda to Mombasa (transportation use & restoration theme... HATERS SAY: :cmas3 :cmas15 :cmas30:)
                    Leg 7 (Kenya --> Qatar) / to Doha and surrounding areas (Dhow Harbour shipping Detour, Souk Waqif, jockey camel racing preparation RB in desert with Pit Stop in the middle of nowhere :lol:)
                    Leg 8 (Qatar --> Burma) / final Doha landmark then off to Yangon (broad culture theme)
                    Leg 9 (Burma) / bus to Bago then drive to Mawlamyine (more in depth culture, durian juice Speed Bump, Shampoo Island Pit Stop)
                    • CHANGED Leg 10 (Burma --> Thailand :gaah:) /  to Bangkok :groan: (Switchback to season 1 coin FF as an Roadblock, new landmarks and districts... HATERS SAY: Way to ruin an awesome route!... oh well, it wasn't that awesome anyways :cmas3)
                    • CHANGED Leg 11 (Thailand --> Philippines) / to Manila and bus to Parañaque City and Talim Island in Laguna de Bay as Roadblock and Pit Stop location
                    Leg 12 (Philippines --> United States) / to END CITY: San Diego, CA!!! :mas25

                    MEMORY TASK (ROADBLOCK): At Mid-Bayfront Marina, team members have to use a petal boat to ride to buoys placed randomly in the water. Each buoy will have its own number (leg number). The task is to get a Pit Stop picture from the dock and place it on the buoy with the correct leg number which it was visited. When all the pictures are in the correct places, their next clue will be revealed under a fishing rod.
                    FINISH LINE: Pacific Gateway Park (Follow the twisted mark trails until you see the Finish Line! Run Forrest Run!!! :cmas9

                    (Added in Europe [even though I'm getting tired of seeing it :groan:] and a 10-country route)

                    Swapping it around to San Diego is pretty good, but then Cuba and the Bahamas will be :cmas3 (crappy) and WAY too predictable.


                    Or you could use it as a "Worst dream route in the history of TAR ever" example. Just an idea. :cmas27

                    Rural = Not In Any Urban Area so therefore there isn't really a location.

                    Okay okay... it was just a friendly suggestion since it seems that people just decide two legs and just say rural to fill up a "slot" in their routes :cmaslol

                    Cast dreamlist (my personal rookie award):

                    M/F teams:
                    Dating couple / Late 20s, Both cute & fit, both with a different disorder (perhaps dyslexia and color-blindness), wants to prove people with certain disabilities are able to do anything than what really is portrayed in the ignorant media
                    Dating long-distance / 30 and 35-ish, not so fit, dating close for a few years, then one's work headquarters move to the different side of the U.S. causing a long distance relationship to form. Wants to have this literally close moment together before returning back to their distanced lives.
                    Dating couple / Early 20s and late 20s, both fit, male has nice abs, female has orangish hair dye, will bicker, met as aspiring musicians at a concert in the major city and began to play in a local pop rock band with other friends in their little town. Thinks entertainment will get them far in the race.
                    Married "rednecks" :lol: / Appearance-wise: Steve & Linda-ish... both down-to-earth lovebirds, well-educated, and lots of FUN, FUN, FUN! :hearts: They want to also break the redneck stereotype placed on reality TV (notably the "You betta redneckognize" toddler & mom, and Duck Dynasty beardies)
                    Cousins / fit, male has noticeable abs, female is sometimes grouchy to others while male is chill and laid-back. They are like brother & sister, no rivalry against each other, but can be manipulative. Female has good reps on booking good and hidden flights because of her frequent flyer discounts on her favorite airline (Mirna much?) :res: while male handles physical tasks and stress very well.
                    Stepmom & stepson / Fit, super-super fans, middle-aged & young adult, both love each other LIKE a real family, but do butt heads once in a while when each wants to complete a challenge their own way. Stepson's dad passed away from a car crash when he was a child and mother was put in prison after severe cocaine addiction when he was a high school student. Racing to showcase their "lifestyle" and how they can connect well to each other.

                    M/M teams:
                    Boyfriends / surfers / Early 20s, both have abs, plays many sports, prepared (I wonder what the twinnies will think :lol:), have fallen in love when they were in college, Just so goddamn ADVENTUROUS & FUNNY GUYS!!! :kuss:
                    Single dads :hearts: / Mid-40s, superfans of show, both have been friends since meeting in a sales rep. workplace environment. Wives divorced them and left their children to the males, coincidences do happen.  :cmas4 :hearts:
                    Retired NFL or NBL players / friends / Played for different major league teams, nearly obvious for fitness, competitive drives, and agility, but wants to win to help out special needs kids and start an anti-bullying program for their small hometowns. So yeah, somewhat like the Globetrotters.

                    F/F teams:
                    Grandmothers / :hearts: :hearts: :hearts: Pre-faves, more competitive than Peggy & Claire, one is of British descent while other is African-American, talented in elderly lacrosse, chess, and musical instruments, wants to show viewers oldies can make it far in the race, if they win they want to help their grandchildren's education tuition
                    Former college roommates / best friends / One is a Hooters (former diner) waitress and has a PhD in social science, one is a college football cheerleader and also studying sports science, they want to show they have the brains, not the looks to get them far in the race.
                    --------------------------------------------------------
                    And here is my grueling and dreadful routing as some of you will obviously call it:

                    STARTING LINE: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (Germantown - Cricket Club)
                    Leg 1 (United States --> Germany) / Philadelphia to Cologne (Dusseldorf as Pit Stop location)

                    Leg 9 (Brazil --> Peru) / to Lima (couple of tasks) and bus to Cuzco
                    Leg 10 (Peru) / drive to Juliaca and Puno (Pit Stop at Lake Titicaca lookout)
                    Leg 11 (Peru --> Bolivia) / row across the lake (while completing tasks) to Copacabana Munic., Bolivia and drive to La Paz (Pit Stop city)
                    Leg 12 (Bolivia --> United States) / to END CITY: Miami OR Fort Lauderdale (airport choices)
                    FINISH LINE: Big Cypress National Preserve


                    I think it might be a little better backwards, but nobody's perfect (and I'm not re-cutting and pasting all those leg descriptions on an iPhone...)

The performers must strap on a bungee cord and pull themselves to the giant fan to grab a flag with a set of colors defining each countries' flags. [Example: Moroccan flag is red with a green star, therefore teams must grab the flag with mostly red/little green with separate color blots and place it in a numbered (chronologic country visit) slot.] They are NOT able to use any type of reference once they go into the wind machine. They have 25 minutes to complete the task or suffer a do-over after the waiting teams have all been served.

                    It looks like a "fruitcake route", but oh well... nobody is that perfect in life. :ghug:

                    ??? Well, if you really think about the first leg... hurrying to climb walls and stairs and then descending back down (tiring as heck) :(, 30 min. separation per ferry transport (teams must hurry if they want to catch their first TAR flight  :o... arriving in Casablanca at night to drive to a questionable rural town is quite confusing and frustrating without detailed maps  :tantrum... and then the Roadblock, it is very easy to suffer/attract cacti needle skin irritation without much light source (unless you're prepared and have flashlight hard hats) :ascared, and directing a mule... we all know how Ari & Staella and Nate & Jen felt when their mule wouldn't move, and at night... quite nightmare-ish. :stare

                    And when you get eliminated by a stupid mule or confusion of directions... :whoop:

                    A winter route with a twist.

                    START: Smithsonian Institute Building, Washington DC
                    Leg 1: USA to Kenya to Uganda (Nairobi, Jinja)
                    Leg 2: Uganda (Kampala)

                    Leg 4: Jordan to Israel (Ein Gedi and the Dead Sea) (0 hr Pit Stop)
                    Leg 5: Israel (Tel Aviv (nighttime leg!  :keeta:)
                    Leg 6: Israel to Mauritius (swimsuit leg!  :conf:)
                    Leg 7: Mauritius to Malaysia (Kuching)
                    Leg 8: Malaysia to New Zealand (all around the North Island, ending up near Mount Ruapehu)

                    Leg 11: Argentina (within Buenos Aires itself)
                    Leg 12: Argentina to USA (LA)
                    FINISH: Lake Hollywood Park, Hollywood, CA

                    In general the places chosen have either not been visited before (most) or else have hosted some terrible legs (Mauritius, Buenos Aires and the associated province, LA as a final destination). Plus, no Europe  :o

                    Gack... I mixed up with the Paris catacombs...  :groan: *facepalm*

Grabbing a color palette flag placed centimeters away from the giant fan, they must return and place the palette by chronological order of how the race visited the countries. Once they have the country flag color palettes correct on all 8/9 correct countries, they will receive their next clue.
                    Song ADD. TASK in Los Angeles: At the recording studio, revitalized from season 10 in Ukraine, teams must create a rap about all the countries they have visited. If the sound artist approves the song, he will give teams the next clue in a form of a recording contract.
                    Ring toss ROADBLOCK in South Beach, Miami: At Lummus Park, team members had to toss rings :duh: onto an enlarged map inside a ring toss booth. The rings are numbered 1 - 12. Racers have to throw the rings onto the respectful pegs marking the main city or area the season has been from leg 1 to leg 12. If racers miss or it lands on the wrong peg, they have to START ALL OVER from the leg 1 ring. After getting all the rings on their proper stands, teams will receive their next clue.

                    I didn't think Algeria through very much, I had a V8 moment when I forgot the snowy regions of Algeria were not near Algiers. :groan: I guess Saudi Arabia would have to be substituted for Israel. ;)

                    I really, really don't think they'd be able to go to Oman, Bangladesh, or Malaysia. Also HaMerotz LaMillion tends to finish in a different country, though that's not to say they always will.

                    Quick question, doesn't having a NEL when the Salvage pass is awarded kinda defeat the purpose of it? There's no team to save then.

                    But a Salvage Pass has two options: to NEL, or to give the other team a head start.  If the NEL doesn't matter what's the point? You might as well just give them a time credit.

                    True.. I'll have it be an elimination and the leg in Copenhagen become an elimination if the Salvage pass saves a team or non elimination if it is used for a time credit.

                    Oakland doesn't have that much stuff... maybe switch it to Napa Valley or University of California - Berkeley.

                    NOTE TO SELF: Forget Berkeley :crazy:... San Franscisco and then a Cupertino (Apple Comp. and Stanford Univ.) Pit Stop is better.

                    I wish TAR would go back to doing more routes going eastward. Ive noticed that on average, the most exciting final 4's are in asia, due to the culture shock and lack of english. Asia makes things more stressful for the racers than it already is. I woudn't mind seeing westward routes, but I prefer seeing more of the classic TAR routes that generally went in an eastward direction. The last 3/4 seasons have been in westward routes  (:;). Also, I like it when eurpoe gets visited first  :).

                    Awesome Europe beginning, but I also got the same warning with the rural Algeria leg in one of my race routes. RURAL Algeria is dangerous, but if you stay in Algiers it might be better for TAR23 as it won't be that dangerous when than now.

                    Rural Mongolia can be considered an epic nomadic village themed leg :colors

                     :bump

                    I keep seeing these route wishlists on here - which is great - that's what the forum is for.

                    But it all seems so random and IMHO most of the routes posted are logistically impossible to complete in 23 days.

                    How about upping the ante around here?
                    When you post a route, also include transportation possibilities, like which flight or train they use to get from city to city. Make sure when you're planning you leave time for Phil to get ahead of the racers. And don't forget to give the racers and crew some time to sleep.

                    Amazing Race .. If  They ever go back to Hong Kong , heres my wishlist for what to do ..
                    they go to kowloon and hong kong island everytime they race in hong kong .. why not go to new territories previous leg to be non elimination leg

                    Hong Kong Internation Airport - take an airport express train , change trains (route info)
                    Tin Shui Wai Park Fountain, Hong Kong   (Route Info)    - Take the LRT
                    Ping Shan Tang Clan Gallery,Ping Shan,Hong Kong  ( Roadblock) > Learn about the Tang Clan    -Take the LRT or Taxi , if by lrt then stop at ping shan and walk
                    Butterfly Beach , Tuen Mun ,Hong Kong   (Speedbump) >Clean the beach , collect 50 trash        -Take the LRT
                    LRT Depot , Tuen Mun , Hong Kong     (Detour)> Repair it or Clean it  , Teams have to clean the transport they have been using the most in this leg  , the LRT , they should clean it or repair it
                    Wetland Park , Tin Shui Wai , Hong Kong (Pitstop) > teams must buy tickets to go inside the park and find phil at the place to watch birds

                    I hope this is good for u , the lrt is a complex system in Hong Kong , teams must know how to travel on railways :)

                    Unless you want a local race, a one state race is just not on the cards, nor will there ever be another "Family Edition". :lol:

                    WHat peach meant was a suggestion to try to do believable legs. I don't care which race you make them for, but reading thru pages of LISTS that are impossible is not much fun, speaking solely as a reader. WHich is why a lot of people don't read this thread.

                    Posts like Loken's above show some thought, plannig and care, and THAT makes it interesting to read and to think about! For me, anyway. A random list of countries that can't actully work for the race is boring to read, but maybe that is just me??
                     
                    No new rules or anything, just venting.  :meme

                    Here's a unique first leg:

                    Start Glacier NP, Montana
                    Route Info: Find the "Cut Bank Penguin". Teams must figure out this is a giant statue of a penguin in the town of Cut Bank.
                    Route Info: Go to the Glacier Gateway Inn and sign up for a charter bus to a mystery location. (Lethbridge, Alberta) teams are dropped off at the bus station at 411 5th St. South.
                    Route Info: Go to the Enmax Centre, the home of the junior hockey team Lethbridge Hurricanes.
                    Detour: Block or Build. Block: Put on goalie equipment and block 5 shots each from a player. Build: Put up the actually hard to make "puck pyramid" on the ledge of the bench. It must be 10 levels of pucks high and you must use all the pucks in the pile.
                    Route Info: Drive to "the Saddle" in Calgary. Teams must figure out the clue is referring to the Scotiabank Saddledome, home of the NHL's Calgary Flames.
                    Route Info: Go to Glenmore Resorvoir and kayak along a 3 mile river.
                    Route Info: Go to the Pit Stop: Scotman Hill. This provides a fascinating view of the city

                    But I wasn't making a fantasy game team list, I was wishing those types of teams and personalities were in one whole season. :duno: Just clarifying.

                    2 unique, memorable final RB ideas for the final leg:

                    ROADBLOCKS:
                    Firefighting training: "Who responds faster to the sound of alarm?" - One team member has to don extrication gear and ride their assigned fire truck to a burning, 3-story fire training warehouse (three buildings spread out around the city area). Once there, they had to put on oxygen tanks & safety gear and climb the truck ladder up to the third floor. Gradually clearing the burning flames and embers, team members must cautiously walk through the smoldering warehouse down to ground level where they have to rescue a mannequin dressed as a firefighter. Smashing through the wooden door with a sledgehammer or an axe, teams must drag the mannequin out to finish the task. Team members must complete this task in less than 15 min. to receive their next (final) clue or suffer a 10 sec. penalty for every second passed the 15 min. mark. :hearts:

                    Another Los Angeles game show: "Who is crafty and smart?" - One team member has to participate in a game show called Household Chores. Each team member must complete a series of specified task in a 2-story "house" while answering eight problems about the race incorporated into the game. Here is an example:
                    ROOM 1 (Upstairs bedroom)- Which blanket was featured at the Moroccan Pit Stop? (Blanket A, Blanket B, Blanket C) The correct one needs to be laid on the bed properly to unlock room 2
                    ROOM 2 (Bathroom)- How many bars of soap were shown in the carving model in Istanbul? Place the same amount on the soap dish to unlock room 3
                    ROOM 3 (Game room)- Roll the correct billiard ball number into the far-right pocket to answer which leg they visited the Leaning Tower of Pisa to unlock room 4
                    ROOM 4 (Book room)- Select the geography book providing the title of which country was visited 2nd, on the last page, there will be a key to unlock the spiral staircase to the patio
                    ROOM 5 (Patio)- Insert the umbrella into the table which pattern was used as an example in the fabric sewing Roadblock in Turkey to unlock room 6
                    ROOM 6 (Dining room)- Which country invited you to a party? Consume the bowl of soup that the bowl color corresponds to the country's flag colors (think party invitation).
                    ROOM 7 (Master bedroom)- Frame the photo which a clue stated this location as, "romantic and breathtaking". After framing it onto the wall, the final room will unlock.
                    ROOM 8 (Living room)- Insert the DVD into the VCR that will appear with the question presented on the top of the screen. Use the remote control to answer which team was eliminated third which will activate a buzzer outside the "house" and unlock the final door.
                    FRONT PORCH- Ring the buzzer to lock in the time

                    If team members finish the course in less than 10 min., teams will receive their final clue. A redo will be completed if teams don't finish before 10 min. :umn:

                    and an Israel to Egypt route would also be very very difficult.

                    Israel also has security alerts:

                    Air Sinai has daily flights (or 5x weekly, can't remember) from Tel Aviv to Cairo, so it wouldn't be that hard.

                    Me too, but only in Jerusalem, kind of like in TARAus 1. I wish the original version would visit Israel and honor 3 religions (Islam, Judaism, and Christianity).

                    I know it is difficult because of the security, but I still want a leg in Israel.

                    Me too. :(

                    Maybe they'll go to the Alhambra or Auditorio de Tenerife sometime. Anywhere in Andorra, Guggenheim in Bilbao, Kew Botanical Gardens, Hatfield House, Underground City in Beijing...

                    I don't think this has been mentioned in this thread... perhaps at all, but I want the race to go to somewhere in Turkey NOT near Istanbul or Ankara.

                    A region I found quite unique and paradoxical is on the far and I mean further outskirts of Kayseri, CAPPADOCIA. In well-known Gorëme, teams could self-drive to the rock houses to find their next clue near one of the doorfronts, visit the fairy chimneys (inflate & ride blimp and count the number of rock formations in the flagged area) and Ihlara Valley in Güzelyurt (rappel down valley to a rock cut church to find a stele with their next clue and bring themselves back up with the message without using the rappelling devices) for a Detour, and better yet, they could visit Derinkuyu Underground City bringing a torch OR Uçhisar Castle finding Phil in one of many caverns as the Pit Stop "task"! :hearts:

                    There wasn't time I don't think. TAR can do a "created" race most anywhere though.

                    Just a thought :P I believe they had gone to the Rakaia Gorge for a task? They may of gone close to the CBD as a tribute to the victims of the 2011 Earthquake but I'm not sure.

                    What's up guys?
                    I have ideas about an actual race on the forum here (thanks to all those on here for inspiration). Anyway, I have an idea for a route:

                    USA->Dublin, Ireland
                    Dublin, Ireland-> Naples, Italy (I already have a Detour)
                    Naples, Italy->Verona, Italy (I already have a Pit Stop)
                    Verona, Italy->Algeria
                    Algeria->Algeria
                    Algeria->Tunisia
                    Tunisia->Slovakia
                    Slovakia->Moscow, Russia (I already have a Roadblock)
                    Moscow, Russia->Nepal
                    Nepal->New Zealand
                    New Zealand->New Zealand (I already have a Detour for one New Zealand leg)
                    New Zealand->USA (Finish)

                    So, any ideas for Detours, Roadblocks, Route Infos, Pit Stops? Any suggestions? Any ideas for tasks? Any ideas for silly costumes? Any places to avoid like the plague?

                    Thanks a bunch in advance guys!   :hrt:

                    love Naples + Verona. I would like a WW2 themed task in Algeria, and i love Nepal as well. maybe a ski/snowboarding task in the Invercargill area of New Zealand. For Slovakia i would have a castle task in Trencin, just outside Bratislava. there's beautiful castles there.

                    Feel free to add something.
                    The Cappadocian region in Turkey is SO overdue, it's absolutely marvelous there with chimney rocks and the underground city. Bahrain is pretty useless after Kuwait and part of the UAE. Qatar is a must-see for me and a vacation spot. :wohoo:

                    As for the Finishing, we need another CHICAGO finish line! :cheer: A Raleigh finish line would be something unique. I don't agree with Finish Lines in San Diego or Houston though. San Diego isn't really considered a major city and it's like a hybrid between L.A. and Boston (mostly Boston) which will possibly be boring. If TAR can't head outside Houston city limits like most of the final destination legs now, Houston actually has nothing standing out. Been there once to visit a relative, the only place I would consider is the museum district; the rest is just going to be a crap leg.

                    This is partially biased being from the area but we need a Boston Finale. A great finish line would be the Lexington Green, just 10 minutes north of Boston.

                    PS: I heard rumors Marcus & Charlie, the Survivor Gabon contestants, tried to apply for TAR 14 or 15, I don't know if it's true or not.

                    I really don't want to see a basketball/basketball wife version of Marcus & Amani. Replacing Kyle & Marisa, maybe.

                    There is probably controversy in this, with families of survivors and killed soldiers, but i would love it if they could go to Iwo Jima.

                    TAR obviously can't control this.. but imagine if Team A got the two Express Passes on Leg 1 of TAR 22, and gave it to Team B, who was also a strong team..

                    and then on this one leg both teams are struggling at, let's say a Roadblock.. and both still have the Express Pass.

                    Team B completes the Roadblock and make their way to the Pit Stop (ON FOOT!!)

                    Team A panics that they'll be eliminated so they immediately pull out their Pass and runsssss

                    *Close footrace*

                    Team B narrowly escapes elimination and Team A comes in last!

                    Oh, my imagination :lol:

                    Here's an updated version of a horrid concept route I did earlier. Tweeked it a little to make it so-called "better". :res: "Third time's the charm [I hope]" Gallory praise! :)

                    STARTING LINE: Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park
                    STARTING FLIGHT CHOICES: Only 3 teams are allowed on an American Eagle flight from Miami to Freeport while the 7 others must drive a longer distance to Fort Lauderdale to catch a flight on either Bahamasair or SkyBahamas (3 teams allowed on Bahamasair & last 4 on a more timely SkyBahamas flight)
                    Leg 1 (United States --> The Bahamas) / Florida to Freeport
                    • Arriving in Freeport, teams self-drive to August Cay to begin cay-themed & Taíno-related tasks traveling from August Cay to Long Cay via different methods of transport.
                    Leg 2 (The Bahamas --> Cuba) / to Havana via Nassau
                    • After ferry transport back to Freeport, teams fly to Havana and self-drive semi-broken vintage cars to their clued destinations. Mural painting is featured as a Roadblock near the Plaza de la República.
                    Leg 3 (Cuba --> Colombia) / to Bogotá
                    • Teams fly to Bogotá and drive to cultural sites including the Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá to find a "sacred" worshipper for their next clue. Detour in rural Colombia and Pit Stop at Villa de Leyva.
                    Leg 4 (Colombia --> Spain) / to Madrid
                    • After going to the Gold Museum to find Muisca's raft, teams fly to Madrid to complete Spanish cultured tasks. This leg will also feature a tapas eating Fast Forward at a Spanish buffet.
                    Leg 5 (Spain) / to where the train takes teams :lol3:
                    • Teams must pay respect to the Atocha station memorial by placing a wreath near the statue before buying tickets on a train to Córdoba where they then have to drive to the outskirts of Valsequillo to begin a conquistador-themed leg. Pit Stop at Castillo de Medellin.
                    Leg 6 (Spain --> Bulgaria) / to Sofia
                    • Teams drive 2 hours to Seville (San Pablo) Airport and fly to Sofia. Teams will complete a fire dancing ritual at the Rila Monastery at night.
                    Leg 7 (Bulgaria --> Turkey) / to Cappadocia region
                    • Via Istanbul, teams will sign up for one of two buses to Kayseri for a Cappadocian Era-style leg. Detour includes hot air balloons near the Fairy Chimneys or rappelling down a Turkish gorge. Pit Stop inside Derinkuyu Underground Tunnels.
                    Leg 8 (Turkey --> Tajikistan) / to Dushanbe
                    Leg 9 (Tajikistan --> India) / to Delhi
                    Leg 10 (India --> Malaysia) / to Kuala Lumpur and forested parks
                    Leg 11 (Malaysia) / train to Ipoh
                    Leg 12 (Malaysia --> United States) / to KAUA'I, HAWAII :cheer:

                    I was just thinking the other day it might be a fun idea if there was a team of nudists. Imagine how that would go down, lol...

                    I also have a list of 10 places I'd like to see on the race:
                    1. Canadian Maritimes or Newfoundland
                    2. Any country in the Caribbean (Saint Lucia, Barbados, Antigua, etc...)
                    3. GREENLAND
                    4. Wales or Northern Ireland
                    5. Andorra

                    I tried planning a race. Then I realized I was in over my head.  :res: So I scrapped it. I can still think of teams no problem. :)

                    I always thought of a Race completely bypassing the Atlantic and the Lower 48 by starting and ending in Alaska and Hawaii and traveling to Oceania > South Asia > Africa > Europe then looping back to North Asia.

                    If anyone here has seen "Expedition Impossible", you'd know they had a Blind Contestant compete, and he made it to second place.

                    Do you think it would be feasible to have a blind contestant on TAR? (With a seeing partner, of course)

                    I dont think that would work, considering pretty much every task requires eyesight.

                    What if the roadblock required sight?

                    the other partner is forced to complete it. For example in amazing race 14 luke wanted to complete the paragliding roadblock.. but it said NOTE: PARTICIPANTS MUST BE ABLE TO HEAR INSTRUCTIONS.. so margie had to to do it... i feel like something like this would happen as well

                    Maybe the task that is possible is eating task. ;)

                    1. Avi & Joe
                    2. Ryan & Chuck
                    3. Bilal & Sa'eed

                    Scott & Chuck and Ari & Staella pissed me off in season 7 and 12. I didn't like their perdonalities, but it would be great for funny TV. I think Diedre & Hillary should return replacing Rob & Sheila.

                    Well, they weren't fast... at all... in any of the tasks in Brazil, but they would make a unique returning team. They may have learned from their TAR13 experience.

                    I liked Matt & Daniel, Ron & Tony, and Avi & Joe on their seasons. And I also agree that Ryan & Chuck and Ari & Staella would be entertaining. I felt really bad for Ryan & Chuck when they were eliminated.

                    Yeah, I liked Vipul & Arti too, but they simply didn't fit the requirements.

                    Okay, how about this instead: Make an 11-team roster composed of teams who were eliminated on the first or second leg.

                    i'd like to see how the first five legs look on a map.

                    I didn't think about that. :lol3: I made that at 2 in the morning.

                    I've always thought it would be neat if two different race productions (One American race, and one international race) planned their routes to that they were both in the same city at the same time. Then, their routes would coincide with an Intersection, where one team from each race would have to pair up together. Then you'd have a team of four, made up of two Americans and two from the International version, completing a task together.

                    I think it would be especially interesting if it were a non-English speaking race that teamed up with them, such as the Israeli or Norwegian race.

                    This route is more of a prediction for TAR 23 than a complete wishlist. With that said,  wouldn't be surprised if some of these locations/countries show up in the next TAR. Would be pretty happy with this route as well.

                    1. Los Angeles (USA) – Lima (Peru)
                    2. Lima (Peru) – Natal (Brazil)
                    3. Natal (Brazil) – Brasilia (Brazil)
                    4. Brasilia (Brazil) – Lisbon (Portugal)
                    5. Lisbon (Portugal) – Van (Turkey)
                    6. Van (Turkey) – Antalya (Turkey)
                    7. Antalya (Turkey) – Helsinki (Finland)
                    8. Helsinki (Finland) – Kuching (Malaysia)
                    9. Kuching (Malaysia) – Singapore (Singapore)
                    10. Singapore (Singapore) – Laguna Province (Philippines)
                    11. Laguna Province (Philippines) – Manila (Philippines)
                    12. Manila (Philippines) – Detroit (USA)

                    I get what you mean. It's a route that revisits places that  haven't been shown in many seasons or new cities in visited countries.

                    Leg 1 - USA (west coast) --> Philippines
                    Leg 2 - Philippines
                    Leg 3 - Philippines --> Australia
                    Leg 4 - Australia --> New Zealand
                    Leg 5 - New Zealand --> Antarctica
                    Leg 6 - Antarctica
                    Leg 7 - Antarctica --> Chile or Argentina
                    Leg 8 - Chile or Argentina --> Peru
                    Leg 9 - Peru --> Venezuela
                    Leg10- Venezuela --> Costa Rica
                    Leg11- Costa Rica --> Belize
                    Leg12- Belize --> USA (east coast)

                    So that's 5 continents. I want to see a Philippine leg with all 11 teams still around. I was also thinking about a leg or 2 at the Antarctic region. I also noticed that there weren't much legs around Central America.

                    For twists, these are what I think might work:
                    -Leg 1 winner would win an express pass and an extra u-turn power.
                    -Leg 11 could still have 5 teams with that leg being a double elimination leg.
                    -Final leg can still have 4 teams, but one will be eliminated somewhere within that leg.
                    -The revival of the intersection during the final 10 or final 4 teams.
                    -The intersection-elimination twist wherein the total number of teams left in that leg is an odd number, the team that wouldn't be able to join forces with another team will be eliminated right away at the intersection. (unfair elimination though)
                    -The reincarnation of the intersection wherein the background of the intersection is red instead of yellow; however, the rules would be exactly the same as the double battle in TAR Israel 2 and the intersection at TAR Latin America 2.
                    -The return of the yield with some added twists. :hearts:
                    -The return of the hazard, this time the team who would receive the hazard will have to do it in every leg (except the final leg or by skipping it by means of a fast forward) until they win a leg or until they get eliminated. (brutal I guess)
                    -A special w-turn wherein the team who received the 1st u-turn can not use the 2nd one until they finish the other side of the detour.
                    -More fast forwards! About 3 to 6 fast forwards per race.
                    -2 TBC/"keep racing" pit stops in a row. (But this would probably exhaust the cast and the crew)
                    -More 1st leg NELs.
                    -A NEL penalty wherein the last team to arrive must complete a speedbump and must arrive 1st the following leg. If the team fails to arrive 1st, that team will receive a 30-min penalty. (For short: NEL penalty = speedbump + MFE) (may be brutal too)

                    For twists, these are what I think might work:
                    -The revival of the intersection during the final 10 or final 4 teams.
                    -The intersection-elimination twist wherein the total number of teams left in that leg is an odd number, the team that wouldn't be able to join forces with another team will be eliminated right away at the intersection. (unfair elimination though)
                    -The reincarnation of the intersection wherein the background of the intersection is red instead of yellow; however, the rules would be exactly the same as the double battle in TAR Israel 2 and the intersection at TAR Latin America 2.
                    -A special w-turn wherein the team who received the 1st u-turn can not use the 2nd one until they finish the other side of the detour.

                    Comments on these.

                    I would love the revival of the intersection, but in the Final 4, I think it is too competitive to put one in, unless it comes right after an HoO.

                    I strongly dislike the idea of an intersection elimination, it is way to unfair and favors alliances and targeting one team, which I hate as well.

                    If they were to make a double battle, don't call it an intersection. I like the concept of it, but I have never seen it in practice, so I don't know how well it works.

                    The special U-Turn could be moot in some cases like the most recent one and I don't like the concept of it either. It could turn into the only U-Turn in a Double U-Turn because everyone might pass a team before they have a chance of catching up and U-Turning someone else.

                    Wow that's such a great idea, it would mean nobody would ever want to use a U-turn and make it such a useless twist :res:

                    I strongly dislike the idea of an intersection elimination, it is way to unfair and favors alliances and targeting one team, which I hate as well.

                    One way I can see making this more feasible is if it is at the end of the first half of a Double-Length Leg and the teams are instructed to pick the earliest number tag and intersect in 1st+2nd / 3rd+4th / 5th+6th etc in order to be safe (with the one who picked the last number eliminated). This way, the alliances/gang-up thing won't affect who gets left out. And I picked Double-Length Leg so that it'll be like the last team to arrive at the end of that first half gets eliminated like at a Pit Stop. The Intersection can also be held at the end of the leg that continues over (like TAR18's 1st/2nd leg).

                    I strongly dislike the idea of an intersection elimination, it is way to unfair and favors alliances and targeting one team, which I hate as well.

                    One way I can see making this more feasible is if it is at the end of the first half of a Double-Length Leg and the teams are instructed to pick the earliest number tag and intersect in 1st+2nd / 3rd+4th / 5th+6th etc in order to be safe (with the one who picked the last number eliminated). This way, the alliances/gang-up thing won't affect who gets left out. And I picked Double-Length Leg so that it'll be like the last team to arrive at the end of that first half gets eliminated like at a Pit Stop. The Intersection can also be held at the end of the leg that continues over (like TAR18's 1st/2nd leg).

                    I like your idea. :) It's something that I didn't think of. ;)

                    umm finland isnt new... they went to hellsinkini, locha (sp?) and another city in S10.. they have also been to kiev, ukraine in S10 as well, estonia, tallin  season:15 .. uraguay, s5.... bucharest romania=s14 that was the home of the original double leg..other than that  2 complaints: im not a big fan of using australia in the middle of the race... i mean speaking english? but i guess it can work as a transfer... and the race has tried to go to antartica.. its just not possible because of the weather...

                    Wait what? Hungary was the home of the original double leg?

                    And in an interview that BVM and ED were in, they say that Antarctica wasn't on the schedule because the flights didn't fit their itinerary.

                    Hungary was home of the original double leg. It was changed to that because producers found out begging was illegal in Hungary.

                    There were a lot of grumblings about Antarctica as a destination, plus I'm bored so:

                    START: San Francisco, CA - Alamo Square Park

                    Leg 1: USA to Chile (Santiago)
                    -- Ideally, this will show off Santiago + surrounding areas better than TAR 16.  :res:

                    Leg 2: Chile (La Serena)
                    -- Desert-based legs  :conf:

                    Leg 3: Chile to Antarctica
                    -- Teams start off by flying to Punta Arenas and perhaps do some sort of task there
                    -- From there, they essentially follow this (http://www.aeroviasdap.cl/antartica_e.html), although perhaps with more of a focus on (simple) research.
                    -- I would imagine there's some sort of convenient anti-bunching involved because otherwise everyone's going to be bunched together for the entire leg

                    Leg 4: Antarctica to Chile (Easter Island)
                    -- Because I enjoy torturing people with climate changes and because it's one of the last major landmarks untouched by WRP

                    Leg 5: Chile to Australia (Melbourne)
                    -- Because I enjoy torturing people with timezone changes. :) Because of the lengthy journey, I figured it would be easiest to visit a metropolis. Since WRP is probably never going to Sydney again after the TAR 18 opening leg, Melbourne is the next-largest choice.

                    Leg 6: Australia to South Africa (Johannesburg / Durban)
                    -- We haven't really had many 'urban' African legs so hopefully the possibilities of auto racing and casinos and wine will remedy that slightly.

                    Leg 7: South Africa to Lesotho (Maseru / Thaba Bosiu)
                    -- I'd be 'nice' enough to have them drive there but I could see charter flights being used.
                    -- This would be your standard 'everyday tasks in a small village' African leg

                    Leg 8: Lesotho to (South Africa) to Israel (Haifa / Caesarea)
                    -- Why...not? Israel is safe(r) to visit and even if they wanted to avoid the West Bank, there's still plenty to do.
                    -- In this case, 'things to do' include archaeology, art and lots of self-driving

                    Leg 9: Israel (Tel Aviv)
                    -- This may or may not be a nighttime party-based leg (not unlike Hamburg or Prague 2)

                    Leg 10: Israel to China (Tianjin)
                    -- Or 'how to have a leg in China without visiting the same three cities'
                    -- Ideally, teams fly to Beijing and travel by train to Tianjin so as to take care of the likely bunching that may result

                    Leg 11: China to Russia (Harbin / Khabarovsk)
                    -- Or 'how to have a vaguely European leg without visiting Europe'
                    -- If the Antarctic leg was 'work' based, this would be 'play' based. Ice-sculptures, museums, food, and drunken buffoonery - everything you would want in a penultimate leg

                    Leg 11: Russia to USA (Minneapolis)
                    -- yes, it's a random destination for a final leg but given that we've had Phoenix and the Florida Keys before a full leg in Texas...*shrugs*
                    -- the Mall of America, hockey, tree-climbing, a memory task involving the numerous bookstores in the area, and a cryptic clue from said bookstores to the finish line

                    FINISH: Longfellow Gardens, Minneapolis, MN

                    6 continents, (8 countries), 18 cities, over 40,000 miles, etc.

                    I'd love to see a twelve team race again.

                    Only if there is no surprise or starting line elimination in the first leg.

                    There is a part of the Antarctic "near" Argentina. Is the most close, and maybe the most possible option. Anyway, i can't believe to do a leg here...

                    In another theme i was put my TAR whishlist. I put it here too.

                    I hope this season they will go to countries not visited yet, or been visited a few times (Portgual, Philppines, Laos, Nepal...) Obviously, not China, France, Japan, India...

                    Maybe it have a lot of "ignored" countries, but i like.

                    1 – USA - CUBA -> From NY to La Habanna. A fall from a skyscraper in NY will be amazing. TAR was never to Cuba.

                    2- CUBA – COSTA RICA -> Costa Rica is one of the most expected countries to see on the next season.

                    3- COSTA RICA – FIJI -> Oceania have more than Australia and NZ!

                    4 - FIJI – AUSTRALIA - PHILIPPINES -> Please, go Philippines.

                    5 -  PHILIPPINES – LAOS -> Laos, another beautiful country not visited yet.

                    6 – LAOS – NEPAL -> Like Laos.

                    7 – NEPAL – EGYPT -> A leg on the desert will be great, with pyramides, sphinx..

                    8 - EGYPT -> One leg for Africa is so poor.

                    9 – EGYPT – GREECE -> Greece is beautiful. They can go to Mykonos.

                    10 – GREECE – SPAIN -> I know Spain was visited on the 21st season, but it's my country, i want TAR go there. This time to Canary islands.

                    11 – SPAIN – PORTUGAL -> Portugal needs a visit.

                    12 – PORTUGAL – CANADA -> The semifinal.

                    13 – CANADA - USA -> The final in Alaska.

                    I think Africa need more legs too. There are so many countries in this continent are not visited yet.

                    In the other theme, they say Cuba or Egypt wouldn't possible, because Egypt is dangerous now, and maybe Cuba have problems with US. Other people tell that Cuba is possible. Idk.

                    By the way, we can change Egypt for Kenya (visited only one time) or another Africa country doesn't visited yet.

                    I was planning a leg on Tarragona (Catalonia,Spain) too (I live in a Tarragona town :D). I know in my whishlist i say Canary Island, but i like to explain "my leg". hahah

                    Tarragona, SPAIN.

                    Teams must go to Reus Airport and drive to Port Aventura Park.

                    RoadBlock: Teams must gather 6 points on the attractions. Every attraction have a number of points (Strong attractions have more points than the loose). Shambala, for examples, gives 3 points. Trunks, 2. Obviously, the strong attractions they have more queues of people too.

                    They drive to Rambla de Tarragona and search the Monument to the Castellers (Human towers) for the next clue.

                    Drive to Tarragona port for the next clue.
                    Detour.
                    1- Wine Tour: Teams must go to a vineyard around Tarragona and they have to make wine with their feets. They have to fill 2 jars and drink a little.
                    2- Banana Tour: Teams must go to Tarragona beach and search the Banana boat. The couple have to do a route without falling.

                    When teams complete the detour, they have to go to Tarraco amphitheater for the Pit Stop.

                    A first impression voting yield at the starting line. The yield/vote tally is not revealed until teams actually reach the yield somewhere throughout the episode.

                    Cuba is impossible due to the United States Embargo against Cuba. They can't do "business" with them, which would include visiting there and filming for a reality TV show.

                    For what it's worth, the US government has restarted the notion of people-to-people licensing (http://travel.nytimes.com/2011/07/10/travel/at-long-last-legal-trips-to-cuba.html?_r=0). Theoretically WRP could work with one of the travel companies that provide services for American tourism in Cuba and build a leg around the guidelines of the Treasury Department, much in the same way that WRP worked with the Seychelles tourism board to build that country's leg in TAR 16.

                    In practice, and especially after the controversy of the leg in Hanoi this past season, I don't see Cuba being visited for a while.

                    Here's a thought for a Starting Line Task:

                    Teams open their first clue that cryptically tells them a hint based off one color of the first country's flag ("You will go to a land where the skies are BLUE", "People will turn GREEN with envy when they find out you are going here!", etc, etc)

                    Teams will then have to correctly pick the country's flag out of a large array of national flags placed throughout a field (note: not the large flags from S9, but much smaller, handheld sized flags. The kind you could put on a table/desk. They would be placed on walls, kind of like S15 starting line task).

                    What teams don't know is that they each received different clues about the flag (if the location was Ecuador: some teams would get a clue about red, others about blue, and the rest about yellow).

                    They would have to figure out that fact, find a way to work together, and still have to search throughout an assortment of flags with the same color combination.

                    I think it would be a very challenging and exciting task.

                    I'm personally digging the idea of having Latin America at the end of the race (and not just for one leg, either).

                    12 teams, 13 legs

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, U.S.A. to Reykjavik, Iceland (EL- 12th place)
                    Leg 2: Reykjavik, Iceland to Rome, Italy to Vatican City (Fast Forward; EL- 11th place)
                    Leg 3: Rome to Naples, Italy (EL- 10th place)
                    Leg 4: Naples, Italy to Budapest, Hungary (Switchback; EL- 9th place)
                    Leg 5: Budapest, Hungary to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia (Double U-turn; EL- 8th place)
                    Leg 6: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to Agra, India (KRL- 7 teams)
                    Leg 7: Agra, India to Kathmandu, Nepal (Fast Forward; EL- 7th place)
                    Leg 8: Kathmandu, Nepal to Manila, Philippines (NEL- 6th place)
                    Leg 9: Manila, Philippines to Melbourne, Australia (EL- 6th place)
                    Leg 10: Melbourne, Australia to Cuzco, Peru (Double U-turn; EL- 5th place)
                    Leg 11: Cuzco, Peru to Guayaquil, Ecuador (NEL- 4th place)
                    Leg 12: Guayaquil to Galapagos Islands, Ecuador (EL-4th place)
                    Leg 13: Ecuador to Belmopan, Belize to New Orleans, U.S.A. (Finale)

                    Key:
                    EL- Elimination Leg
                    NEL- Non Elimination Leg
                    KRL- Keep Racing Leg

                    6 continents, 13 countries, 2 new (Nepal and Belize)

                    I personally miss the final leg having a penultimate destination (Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Canada, France) before heading to the Final City and would love to see them hit some of the countries that would otherwise get neglected because they're too close.

                    Would be great if every couple start from a different place. Obviously, there should be a similar difficulty between sites, and distance to the airport or country to visit. It would be a different way to start the program.
                    I had thought also that in one episode, the teams were to one country or another according to their order of arrival at the airport. It is clear that there should also be a difficulty and a similar difficulty. It's crazy, I know, and not be more than one episode, but it would be funny and new, yeah!? :)
                    Teams would be found Phil on a television or something, he can't divided in two. hahah

                    6- Warsaw, Poland -> Andorra la Vella, Andorra

                    7- Andorra la Vella, Andorra -> Nuakchot, Mauritania

                    8- Nuakchot, Mauritania -> Malanje, Angola

                    9- Malanje, Angola -> Naypyidaw, Myanmar

                    10- Bago, Myanmar

                    11- Bago, Myanmar -> Davao City, Philippines

                    12- Tagum City, Philippines -> Palau, Micronesia

                    13- Palau, Micronesia -> Juneau, Alaska (U.S)

                    And Monte Carlo, although would be new, is not a country in it's own right - it's part of the wider principality of Monaco.

                    This is weird, but I'd love to see a Father/Daughter team where the Daughter is bratty, spoiled, and all ever since teenage years and the Father wants to reconnect with her.

                    Similar to Duke & Lauren but it would be nice to see a team like this go far and have their relationship re-evaluated.

                    You could do Alice Springs and Ayers Rock/Uluru in one leg and the 2nd leg in Australia could be a city leg (Canberra or Melbourne) but other then that its a good route.

                    Yeah, Uluru and Alice Springs really won't yield you much if you're spreading them over two legs.

                    After 22 seasons and only two all female teams winning? There's room for more.

                    Here's hoping that this season all female teams will have:

                    Caroline and Jennifer's fun loving spirit
                    Charla and Mirna's amazing luck and skills in Allstars
                    Dustin and Kandice's competitiveness
                    Nat and Kat's brains
                    Brooke and Claire's strength and witty punchlines
                    A lottle of Cara and Jaime's sassy snappy attitude for the hilarity and drama

                    <3333333333333 Totally not asking for too much. :lol3:

                    Here is my fantasy race beginning:

                    The race begins somewhere in New York City.  The first clue advises the racers of the three flights that may be taken, and even when the flights are scheduled to land.  The catch is that each of the flights takes off from a different airport: Newark, LaGuardia and JFK.

                    The logistics of such a beginning likelly ensure that it will forever remain a fantasy.

                    New Route

                    Miami, Florida to Caracas, Venezuela
                    Caracas, Venezuela to Cusco, Peru (Connection via Lima)
                    Cusco, Peru to Melbourne, Australia(Connections through Lima and Sydney)
                    Melbourne, Australia to Hobart, Tasmania
                    Hobart, Tasmania-Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (Via Sydney)
                    Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia- Bangkok, Thailand
                    Bangkok, Thailand-Athens, Greece (Via Istanbul)
                    Athens, Greece
                    Athens, Greece-Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina (Via Munich)
                    Sarajevo-Vienna, Austria
                    Vienna, Austria- Helsinki, Finland- Turku, Finland (Double Length)
                    Helsinki, Finland- Quebec City, Quebec, Canada (Via Paris and Montreal)
                    Halifax, Nova Scotia- Nashville, Tennessee (Via Philadelphia or Newark or Toronto)


                    This is very unrealistic, expensive to get flights between and spread out. New countries- Venezuela, Tasmania, Bosnia and Herzegovina. This route goes to new major cities in old countries like Turku, Quebec City (History), Melbourne.

                    A Roadblock U-Turn wouldn't be too much to ask, no?

                    Either that or the Yield to return - I don't know, it always seemed more devastating than a U-Turn, but then again, it all depends on what Detour the U-Turn appears

                    I always wanted to see something like this!

                    I know! I don't understand why there are limits to a Roadblock U-Turn type thing being implemented, especially if it was disgusting tasks (which would be hilarious to watch :lol:) (which is another wishlist of mine, more gross-out tasks like eating disgusting things etc)
                    Maybe they don't make it to balance the Roadblock count in the end? ;)

                    Maybe have it so that when they get U-Turned then it doesn't count towards the overall Roadblock Count? :duno:

                    Or maybe they're planning to make it but they don't know what's the proper term of it, because Roadblock U-Turn is too mainstream. :lol:

                    A Diversion perhaps? :lol: (I was gonna have a Race power in my original game called the Diversion, but it wasn't gonna have that power :P) Some term to do with driving :p

                    Regarding the Roadblock U Turn, the other partner should do it because then the person who originally did it already knows how to do it, or the answer. The only situation where it seems like they would not know is one of those search for... roadblocks

                    That's kinda the point of a Roadblock U-Turn...

                    There's a bit of a "flaw" though. While it has to be a different partner doing the Roadblock Uturn, he/she MIGHT know how to do this one from observing his/her partner who initially did the RB.

                     Ex. Jaime did the Dinosaur RB in s18 where she had the hips wrong. Cara said in an interview that she knew Jaime had the hips wrong but couldn't help her. So with that case, it may seem "unchallenging" now that Cara already knows how to do it correctly and kinda ruins the point of the Uturn. In my opinion, what makes the Uturn difficult is that the teams have no idea how the other Detour is like.

                    It's a tiny bit of flaw that could be corrected though. So let's still keep our hopes up?  :keeta:

                    Well theoretically then it would work on tasks either where you have to go somewhere else, do a task, and come back, or tasks that just rely on doing something, like the Indian Poo task, Malaysian newspapers, and the like.

                    How about the u-turn while teams are intersected? Is it a good idea? Just one team's picture needs to be chosen and the whole intersected team gets the u-turn, for the courtesy of photo, however, they still need both teams' photos.

                    Uhm, I'm pretty certain TAR10 and TAR11 both had Intersection Detours, but I highly doubt an Intersected U-Turn would work, as you would need to know what the Intersected teams were, and for those teams that are already Intersected and off to do their Detour task then it would be unfair on them; similarly with teams that are behind that would not know who the Intersected teams are

                    Nevertheless, I still love the Intersection and hope it makes its grand return soon <3

                    They need to bring back Phil's Diary or the Elimination Station on the CBS website. And if they do show the ES again, please make "paradise isle" in St. Croix or the Philippines. These islands are always underestimated. :'(

                    That if you get eliminated with it ... you can give to someone or .... stay in the game and face a speed bump or save another team (like salvage pass)

                    I have asked this previously in this thread. PLEASE no wishlist MAPS anymore. It slows the pages way down and they are not necessary. Save it for the real thing.

                    So NO MORE, okay? THanks!

                    That was what I thought might happen when TAR 17 aired.  ;) but after watching the 4th leg of TAR 22...  :haha :(

                    Having 1 ff is boring, :( having 2 is enough, :stare having 3 would be nice, :) and having 4 or more: :trampb:
                    Here's the wish: Have 4-6 fast forwards per race, it will not be available on the 1st leg (due to the express pass being rewarded) and on any leg beyond F5. :)

                    I see why 6 hour penalty > as the production cant keep up with the racers so they have to take a penalty to finish setting up.. right?

                    Here's a random thought: Could a team use the Express Pass to skip the Fast Forward? IE the team decides to go for the Fast Forward, but then they pull out the Express Pass and hand it to the Fast Forward clue giver! :lol3:

                    I believe if a team does that they receive a four hour penalty. Don't quote me on that  :lol3:

                    It is currently not confirmed whether or not teams can use an EP on a FF. We would have to wait until a situation airs that we would eventually find out.

                    From what I know, it's either not allowed, or 6-hour penalty. :res:
                    I see why 6 hour penalty > as the production cant keep up with the racers so they have to take a penalty to finish setting up.. right?

                    I'm not really sure, I just found it in Wikipedia a long time ago, I'm not even sure if I found the blind u-turn rules there...

                    They should have revisited the unaired roadblocks.

                    But there were some that were revealed, for example:
                    TAR14 FF- Mel & Mike revealed it in a post-race interview.
                    TARs 1-4 FFs- They are in wikipedia anyway.
                    So it doesn't have to be all of them anyway. ;)

                    I wish more Middle East and Africa, but the security reason make it nearly impossible to go to country like Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, etc

                    Here's another wish: 11-way footrace to the pit stop.
                    It might become unfair, but it would rarely happen anyway.
                    Just said this 'cuz a 2-way/3-way footrace is too mainstream. Well, I like a 3-way footrace :) , but I think it's just: The more, the merrier.

                    current wishes

                    i want an exhausting, 10 hours long, night leg. in europe probably or big cities in China such as shanghai or beijing or hongkong. it would be great to see teams running desperately in exhaustion surrounded by the city lights  :colors

                    i want a penultimate leg in china ( we haven't had a china penultimate leg since season 16, and china always brings us spectacular drama such as leg 10 of amazing race 14)
                    i also want a penultimate leg in Indonesia ( probably after having a break for at least 2-3 seasons  :funny:)
                    i want a penultimate in the philippines ( like desperately, now )
                    i want a penultimate leg in Africa ( the heat of africa will tire and drive the final 4 crazy )

                    Bopper and mark, Andy and Tommy, and Joey and meghan HAVE TO BE in the next all stars

                    many more visits to balkan states. they are seriously safe and have abundant beautiful sceneries

                    visits to laos, nepal, urumqi (china), omsk or volgograd or vladivostok (russia), frankfurt never had a full leg ( correct me if i'm wrong) or bonn (germany), Goa, hyderabad, and bangalore ( india ), madrid. anywhere on the island of Hokaido,

                    countries that i don't want amazing race to visit for the next 1 or 2 seasons
                    - Indonesia ( i myself wouldn't really mind if Indonesia is visited everytime since i'm indonesian. but Other viewers will be pretty much bored which is very understandable.  we already had 3 consecutive visits to Indonesia now)
                    - UK ( i don't like how UK was placed as the penultimate legs in AR 22,)
                    - any oceanian countries except australia

                    a penultimate leg which obliges teams to travel on foot,

                    I agree with the majority of the points here, but I like how Edinburgh and Belfast were the final 2 destinations as it meant you could see the beauty of the two cities, which I will be honest was quite underwhelmed - Edinburgh has tram works so I think a visit after they are finished would be nice, whereas Belfast seemed to focus on the outskirts rather than the city itself. All they need to do is go to Cardiff and we are set! ;)

                    i think cities in UK is indeed beautiful. which is why it would be best if put in early legs. Early legs should have a very beautiful scenery which delivers good first impression to the racers, and the viewers at home. also i think that UK doesn't frustrate teams as how penultimate legs should.

                    Penultimate in Indonesia? I like that idea, but they should do that after 5 seasons/years, since Indonesia is getting way too overused. :funny:
                    I rather have Philippines in leg 1, but they should at least visit the Philippines. :hrt:

                    My bad. Sorry if I offended anybody . It just everyone always wants to see Africa or Europe. But nobody is ever overly excited for Asia. so yeah .

                    Penultimate in Indonesia? I like that idea, but they should do that after 5 seasons/years, since Indonesia is getting way too overused. :funny:
                    I rather have Philippines in leg 1, but they should at least visit the Philippines. :hrt:


                    as an indonesian, i'm disappointed that The amazing race has overused Indonesia and all of them are early legs. i'm glad that Indonesia is used in leg 9&10. i really regret that they have to visit us for three consecutive seasons. I mean, i love amazing race coming to Indonesia and i would love to see them visit it every season, but non indonesian viewers will not be as happy  and satisfied as us. i think a break at least 3-4 seasons will be enough. but i want, in the next visit in indonesia Indonesia has to be a penultimate leg.

                    I would be happy if Philippines got a leg regardless of its placement. But Philippines really made a brilliant penultimate leg in TAR 5 and i want to see that again in TAR 24

                    i think cities in UK is indeed beautiful. which is why it would be best if put in early legs. Early legs should have a very beautiful scenery which delivers good first impression to the racers, and the viewers at home. also i think that UK doesn't frustrate teams as how penultimate legs should.
                    I agree with this. I love seeing Europe early in the race like TAR 3 with Scotland and TAR 4 with the Alps, Austria, France, Amsterdam.

                    Leg 12 - Arvaikheer, Mongolia - Medellín,Colombia - St. Louis, Missouri

                    I hope this route never sees the light of day, that's 9 legs in Asia #OverkillMUCH
                    If you can't tell, its all new locations. I'm sick of people wanting Africa or Europe or whatever. Asia is so diverse.

                    Nine legs in Asia is way overkill. Some of your places are also a bit unsafe, and/or the government dislike Americans.

                    If they're going to go to Paramaibo, it will probably only be for Leg 1 and 11, and the preceding/following leg will be in the Netherlands.

                    Also (coming from the area myself), I think Liverpool and Manchester are too similar to each other in that they have big city scenes and are quite difficult to get around :P A double leg solely in either Liverpool or Manchester (moreso Manchester than Liverpool) would work indeed ^^

                    Hong Kong Leg

                    - Hong Kong International Airport (bus) (train)
                    - Park Tower,Yuen Long Town Park,Yuen Long Town, New Territories (yield) <- the tower is 10 stories high and the cluebox could be located at the top!

                       1st choice Shop - head to Sun Yuen Long Plaza and head to the Largest Parknshop there , in the parknshop, you need to buy some specific items and then exchange them to the clerk for your next clue , the task is close and not physical but is tedious and teams may get stuck or choose the wrong one
                        2nd choice Fish - head to Lau Fau Shan by bus , once there teams have to find a marked fishing vessel, once there , teams have to move fish around from vessel to a container once done , teams will gain their next clue

                    Hello guys!  :)

                    I'm thinking of a twist that involves 3 teams and it works kinda like U-turn. (I'm not also sure if this idea is already mentioned here...)

                    The name will be Interchange.

                    Every team has onetime power to exchange other 2 teams' partners. This should appear before a Detour or a Roadblock. This would work especially to the teams who always have an issue to each other (i.e. Art & JJ and Vanessa & Ralph against Brandon & Rachel)... The power should end after the Detour or the Roadblock is already completed.

                    A team who uses this will select 2 teams at the Interchange Station. Then they will also select which one team member who will temporarily partner with another team's member.

                    If a selected team is already ahead of the one who uses this, the effects will be nullified.

                    The team that has been selected must wait until the 2nd selected team arrives and then on they can continue with team members already exchanged.

                    So what do you guys think?  :)

                    It's a good idea.

                    But it will be good too if the production makes the changes are in all couples. They have to change their couple with another team in a leg and they have to wait their couple to arrive at the Pit Stop. (Exchange).

                    And, for future routes, can you remember the sushi roulette (Wasabi Bomb) on TAR15? It will be amazing if we see this roulette again! This time in Mexico, with hot spicy food. ;P

                    It's a good idea, but wouldn't a team be stuck if the two teams were interchanged, one had passed the Interchange board, and the other one is behind, isn't the second team trapped?

                    well I am thinking, in order for this to be prevented, the teams, regardless if they use Interchange or not, must indicate to the board that they have passed it. But the element of surprise will be lost.  :(

                    To clarify though, the selected team must wait to the board until the 2nd selected team arrives, then they can continue to race with partners already changed.

                    If you guys have better ideas to improve this idea, feel free to tell me about it. :)

                    In Norwegian version there was something called the Handicap. This makes a task more difficult for tesms

                    Thank you!

                    In Norwegian version there was something called the Handikap. This makes a task more difficult for the Handicapped team. For example, If a teammember had to carry 50 pies in a roadblock, the member of the Handicapped team had to carry 75 or 100. I'd like to see this in a future US season

                    It's 24 they do another Unfinished Business then I'd assume at least 2 teams from each season from 19-23

                    One of my dream starts, if for the race to start IN Disneyland (Main Street, right in front of castle). The teams would reach their bags, only to discover they have to ride "It's a Small World" to discover their first destination. The red/yellow route marker would be hidden somewhere on the ride, relating to the country they are soon to visit (ex. on the gondola scene for Italy or on the kids in tulips for the Netherlands). Once they complete the ride, they would then guess their location to Phil, by handing him the correct mini country flag (there would be a large stand filled with various small flags). If they guess correctly, they will get a ticket for one of 2 or 3 flights. They do not have to re-ride the ride if they give a wrong answer, but they are more than welcome to ride it as much as they need.

                    The options for places to go from there are quite high. Most locations in "It's a Small World" are European destinations, however, there are several American and Asian countries to choose from as well.

                    One of my dream starts, if for the race to start IN Disneyland (Main Street, right in front of castle). The teams would reach their bags, only to discover they have to ride "It's a Small World" to discover their first destination. The red/yellow route marker would be hidden somewhere on the ride, relating to the country they are soon to visit (ex. on the gondola scene for Italy or on the kids in tulips for the Netherlands). Once they complete the ride, they would then guess their location to Phil, by handing him the correct mini country flag (there would be a large stand filled with various small flags). If they guess correctly, they will get a ticket for one of 2 or 3 flights. They do not have to re-ride the ride if they give a wrong answer, but they are more than welcome to ride it as much as they need.

                    The options for places to go from there are quite high. Most locations in "It's a Small World" are European destinations, however, there are several American and Asian countries to choose from as well.

                    Disneyland start is not a bad idea :) , but it's never gonna happen, because there are a lot of people in there, which will make the cast of that TAR season easier to stalk, especially at the start. :funny:

                    Disneyland opens at 8 at the earliest, usually later in off seasons

                    There is the potential of just blocking off the area around the ride (literally in the back of the park) in case racers take longer than expected

                    Abd finally, there are many 'cast member' exits, so they can leave virtually undetected by crowds

                    That could work so well! the task they get in dinseyland could direct them to another disneyland in other places? (eg. find disneyland in europe which is Paris.) or something

                    Casting wishes:
                    I love it when TAR casts normal, everyday-looking people onto the race. These people like you and I may never get a chance to even go out of state let alone country so I want some dynamic duos like them to strive to win. Not interested in seeing successful musicians and wealthy Real Housewive-Kim Kardashian-style cable crap models who end up prissy, annoying, or having zero personality on the race (excluding Dustin & Kandice since they had huge personalities towards racers in TAR10 & A-S).

                    M/F teams:
                    Stepmom/Stepson- (40 & 20-ish yrs. old) From a stepson's tragedy in his infanthood, the stepmom had to take care of the young child and fill him in on what happened. The two must be polar opposite personalities from each other and have a great bond between each other despite sometimes disagreeing.

                    Married Teachers- (35 & 30-ish yrs. old) I think married teachers would work well together if they both taught different subjects such as the male is a history teacher/sports coach and the female is a geography teacher at a different school. They would bring mental knowledge and physical skills to the table in order to win the race.

                    M/M team:
                    Single Dads- (40 & 35-ish yrs. old) We've seen single moms like the Lyns from TAR10, but how about casting single FATHERS? They must be a little out of shape to get with the program, and love their kids like Bopper & Mark to have that drive to compete. This would be a team people would love to root for.

                    F/F teams:
                    Mother/Daughter- (50 & 20-ish yrs. old) An overprotective mother and wanting to be free daughter would make a perfect team for TAR. The mom must be too organized and efficient that they force each other to wear beach towels around their pants to prepare for any water task :lol: and wear layers of sweaters in hot climates in case it surprisingly turns chilly all of a sudden. :funny: While the daughter tries to nake herself freer, the mom must deal with issues only she can resolve like being a backpack hoarder, packing 10 lbs. of clothes, first aid, flashlights, and other teams' mocking of them.

                    Grandmothers- (70-ish yrs. old) I still want another Gutsy Grannies team with much experience in sitting at the couch being big fans of TAR! :hoot: Of course, they'll need a personality in loving to try new stuff, even daring.

                    More like Shane Dawson & Joey Graceffa! :lol:
                    First, remember how much blame and hate TAR got when Michael & Kevin were eliminated in Russia? Imagine that times 10 because two well-renowned YouTubers on the race would murder the ratings and it would not be a good start for the following season

                    Shane Dawson & Lisa Schwartz then :P People would still know who Shane is and thus conversely would know his girlfriend, without the ratings becoming too absurd

                    -A team of zookeepers would be cool.

                    -Mother and adopted child.

                    -Married team over age of 60.

                    -Out of shape fathers/bestfriends.

                    -Male/Female team of punk rockers (tattoos,piercings & wild hair, mohawk etc).


                    1. Andie/Jenna
                    2. Bill & Cathi
                    3. Bopper & Mark
                    4. James & Abba


                    Andie/Jenna were reunited parent/child team and we need more teams over 60 not once every 5 seasons  :( And Abba/James weren't what I mean :/

                    Well, on Facebook, a lot of dislike was circulating around Joey being annoying along with hyperactiveness and turned many adults off watching him that season. I think thay may be why ratings weren't affected as much.

                    We need another psychadelic-style team like Anita & Arthur, but one who can actually has the ability to be quicker.

                    We defintely need to see how another mother and adoptee would work together. Andie & Jenna are still one of my favorites from TAR17. :)

                    As for FB, it's one of the things I hate about Facebook pages. Those comments were absurd. Just because you are a vet, or any M.D. doesn't mean you should be banned from applying on The Amazing Race. They too can't travel to 8 countries in one sitting. They certainly have many patients to help and can rarely take time off even to spend family time at a beach, skiing, or any fun recreational activity. It is foolish to... not belittle, but put down everyday doctors who help SAVE LIVES. :groan: Sometimes I wish Facebook did not create a system for liking pages.

                    I don't think people really complain so much about people not deserving to run the race due to financial reasons - certainly not Nat and Kat or Tammy and Victor or Rob and Brennan or Chip and Kim, the latter of whom were fairly clearly well-off. Since TAR has an objective victory condition (finish the last leg first) then it doesn't matter why you've run the race or how someone else feels about it since there's not a lot that anyone can do about it.

                    I feel like vets would be nice. Perhaps farmers if they raise animals (this would be a good spot for a parent/child or other familial team) as well.

                    A route? Sure:

                    Leg 1: New York, New York to Fish River Canyon, Namibia (Pit Stop: Fish River Lodge)
                    Leg 2: Fish River Canyon to Swakopmund, Namibia (PS: Swakopmund Prison)
                    Leg 3: Namibia to Luanda, Angola (PS: Agostinho Neto Mausoleum)
                    Leg 4: Angola to County Kent, England (PS: Cliffs of Dover)
                    Leg 5: England to Cardiff, Wales (PS: Cardiff Castle)
                    Leg 6: Wales to Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina (PS: Latin Bridge)
                    Leg 7: Bosnia and Herzegovina to Venice, Italy to San Marino (PS: Palazzo Publico)
                    Leg 8: San Marino to Kathmandu Valley, Nepal (PS: Kailashnath Mahadev Statue)
                    Leg 9: Kathmandu to Khumjung, Nepal (PS: Everest View Hotel)
                    Leg 10: Nepal to Kratie, Cambodia (PS: Phnom Sombok)
                    Leg 11: Cambodia to Singapore (PS: Esplanade Theatre)
                    Leg 12: Singapore to Houston, Texas (Finish Line: Miller Outdoor Theatre)

                    Hi all! Long time reader, first time poster.

                    I have an idea for a twist for racers, called the "Speedlimit"

                    A team gets to handicap another team at the roadblock, but on the condition that the team using it forfeits the right to check in to the mat 1st.

                    Example: Season 5's 9th Leg (India) - the team hit with the Speedlimit has to make 25 bricks instead of 20.

                    What do you think? Feel free to critique as you please, I'm always open to it!  :)

                    Welcome to RFF, Spitty! :bigwelcome

                    I think this would be a great idea! As much as the Speed Bumps are wearing out season by season, I think the original U.S. version should revamp this concept by using the "Speed Limit/Handicap" during an overnight rest which teams can vote on who would receive the twist in order to not rip-off of TAR Norway.

                    This is a great idea, I like the concept a lot!  I agree with Rachel saying the speedbump is wearing out and it kind of reminds me of the Uturn used in TAR Israel.

                    I like this idea better! But if a team say used the Speedlimit and they arrived in 4th, would they have to relinquish one place or are they ok? Or maybe by using it they received a ten minute penalty at the pit stop?

                    Really like this idea  :cheer: :cheer:

                    I Think TAR should update all the route markers / clues and design of the clues and clueboxes after TAR 25 to make it more modern looking and not use the same old design. like how they changed the uturn boards digital

                    I don't like how they made the Double U-Turn boards touch screen. In its debut in Malawi, you could only see the dark screen and barely see the U-Turn victim and perpetrator's picture. Same thing happened in TAR20 Tanzania. The TAR12-18 board is a lot more prettier in my opinion and it creates more of a sense of "You're our biggest competition" with a physical picture posted onto the space. You could even write special messages with Sharpie on pictures like, "Sorry, we can't outrun you!!!" :lol:

                    As they say, if it's not broken, don't fix it. However I agree on the Uturn board!
                    I would love if they altered between the Uturn and a yield. A double yield sounds pretty cool!

                    Very sad to see Yield element is missing from the game. 2 Yield/U-Turn each should be fair enough in the Race

                    I loved the yield, but I also like the element someone came up with about 2 pages back.

                    TAR should visit New South China Mall in Dongguan, China.  It is the largest mall in the world, but it is 99% vacant.  Imagine the teams searching through 2,000 empty store locations! lol

                    I don't like how they made the Double U-Turn boards touch screen. In its debut in Malawi, you could only see the dark screen and barely see the U-Turn victim and perpetrator's picture. Same thing happened in TAR20 Tanzania. The TAR12-18 board is a lot more prettier in my opinion and it creates more of a sense of "You're our biggest competition" with a physical picture posted onto the space. You could even write special messages with Sharpie on pictures like, "Sorry, we can't outrun you!!!" :lol:

                     :) , :funny:

                    I love night Legs.  Seeing the teams run around in the dark is awesome.  The Kafka Road Block was a great use of the nighttime setting.  And in TARAu, they had a good Leg where they had a Road Block in some underground tunnels at night (Turkey I think?).

                    But how about a night Leg where it's actually light out? What are some possible "Land of the Midnight Sun" destinations could they Race to?

                    Don't like the bandwagon rumour of Amanda/McCrae team for the next Season, which puzzles me as we all think it may be All-Stars.
                    Maybe just some journalistic thrash.

                    Normal people make the best TAR teams, (Kelly & Jon, Charla & Mirna, Flo & Zach, just to name a few)
                    But not all semi-famous people make boring TAR teams, Vanessa & Celina, for example.
                    Also I didn't find Caroline & Jennifer that generic typical blondes, they were quite entertaining!
                    "BEVERLY HILLS HAS JUST LEFT THE BUILDING!" And that flying squirrel thing was lol :lol:
                    But I mostly agree with you guys - more 'normal people' TAR teams please! :hrt:

                    I think Elissa is much more likely to get cast than Amanda/McCrae.  I predict TAR24 is not the All-Star season and we'll see Elissa racing with her husband then for TAR25, the All-Star season, we'll get Rachel and Elissa as a hybrid team.  :<3

                    I have to say. No Hybrid teams ever again. I don't care who it is, I don't want anymore Hybrid teams ever again especially if it involved Rachel.

                    Seeing as we have a potential All Stars season soon, does anyone know would it even be remotely possible for the public to vote for the 11 or 12 potential All Star teams. Could they say, break them off into categories (MM, M/F, FF, Older couples, Uturned, teams that need redemption) or would they just pick a top 11? I doubt this would happen but it is just an idea, or maybe even pick 10 teams internally and let the public choose 2 from another 5 teams.

                    If this will come true, i would like people from other countries can vote. (I'm from Spain and i want to participate in this!)

                    It would get people involved and watching to see if their favourite team could get far :D But could leas to an angry backlash which is common regardless in reality tv shows.

                    The Canary Islands please and/or Cape Verde Islands  :cheer:
                    CAPE VERDE LEGS:
                    (and yes, they are from a race I made)

                    LEG 9 (Germany → Cape Verde)
                    - Nuremberg (Nuremberg Int’l) to Praia, Cape Verde (Nelson Mandela Int’l)
                    - Praia (Porto Praia) (Detour)
                    - Praia (Albuquerque Square) (Roadblock)
                    - Praia (Municipal Palace) (Pit Stop)

                    •   Detour- (HMS or SOS) HMS- teams had to search the Port for a replica of the HMS Beagle, which they had to search for Darwin’s journal, which contained their next clue. SOS- teams had to jump off a platform into the Atlantic Ocean and swim to a nearby shipwreck. They then had to load five passengers onto a small nearby raft and paddle to shore, where a passenger would give them their next clue.
                    •   After the Detour, teams had to transport a 500-pound cannon through the cobblestone streets to the Albuquerque Square, where they would exchange the cannon for their next clue.
                    •   Roadblock- One team member had to press enough sugarcane to collect 5 gallons of sugarcane juice.

                    LEG 10 (Cape Verde)
                    - Praia (Nelson Mandela Int’l - Charters Terminal) to Sal Island (Amílcar Cabral Int’l)
                    - Pedra de Lume (Salt Flats) (Detour)
                    - Pedra de Lume (Pedra de Lume Crater) (Double U-Turn)
                    - Pedra de Lume (Calhetinha Bay) (Speed Bump) (Roadblock)
                    - Pedra de Lume (Marked Parking Lot)
                    - Monte Grande (Pit Stop) (Elimination)

                    •   At the Charters Terminal, teams had to sign up for one of five helicopters to Sal Island, departing five minutes apart.
                    •   Detour- (Rock or Roll) Rock- teams had to use hammers and chisels to crack open salt rocks to find a race-colored hammer. Teams could then use the hammer to crack open one of the five red-colored rocks, which contained their next clue. Roll- teams had to load baskets with salt. Once they had collected 10 baskets, each with 4 pounds of salt they could load them in a cart and roll them downhill to a worker, who would give them their next clue.
                    •   Speed Bump- One team had to attach a sail to small boat. Once they completely attached the sail, they could continue racing.
                    •   Roadblock- One team member had to swim out to a marked buoy, where they would dive down to get a keychain. They would then return to shore, where they would dig in one of five dig sites to unearth a chest. They would use their keys to unlock the chest, which contained their next clue and another keychain.
                    •   At the Parking Lot, teams had to use the keys they obtained from the chest to drive two ATVs. They had to ride these ATVs to the Pit Stop, Monte Grande.

                    The only problem I see here is: how are teams going to get from McMurdo to Guam? They'd have to spend a week in Antarctica for 2 legs!

                    I really like the Alberta tasks/ideas, but I think that there's so much it can be made into two legs. To make room for this, I think you can combine the 3 legs in Finland & Norway into 2 legs.

                    The Amazing Race: Win at all costs
                    (a season of teams that haven't won a leg)

                    1. Kynt & Vyxsin
                    2. Nathan & Jennifer
                    3. Terence & Sarah
                    4. Kelly & Christy
                    5. Jamie & Cara
                    6. Amanda & Kris
                    7. Brian & Ericka
                    8. Maria & Tiffany
                    9. Carol & Brandy
                    10. Nick & Vicki
                    11. Laurence & Zac
                    12. Justin & Jennifer
                    13. Vanessa & Ralph
                    14. Joey "Fitness" & Danny
                    15. Gary & Will
                    16. Amy & Daniel
                    17. Caroline & Jennifer
                    18. Joey & Meghan

                    5 F/F, 10 M/F, 3 M/M

                    Too many teams I know, so make them do an epic starting line task and eliminate 6 teams right there (I can deal with 12 teams - especially for a returning racers season).
                    I think I would be happy seeing any of these teams race again, most of them place 6th or higher. There are very few M/M teams because a surprising number of interesting M/M teams have won a leg, even if they got eliminated early.
                    Having so many couples could also be a problem ><

                    Thoughts?

                    Whoops, I forgot season 24...
                    Nicky and Kim, and Jason and Amy (provided that they don't go on to win a leg)

                    but that may just be my personal opinion.

                    Unless they all somehow befall terrible unforeseen circumstances, if you put x amount of teams into a race you're going to come out with 1 winner, it's a formula we've seen work more than 22 times now...

                    Unless you're referring to the teams in terms of quality/entertainment, in which case I saw if they were casted once then there must be something about them that could produce great TV.

                    If you're saying my cast may be unbalanced I would probably agree but that would be a result of using such a formula/caveat to choose teams

                    I personally don't see a winner here.... :stare
                    but that may just be my personal opinion.

                    Unless they all somehow befall terrible unforeseen circumstances, if you put x amount of teams into a race you're going to come out with 1 winner, it's a formula we've seen work more than 22 times now...

                    Unless you're referring to the teams in terms of quality/entertainment, in which case I saw if they were casted once then there must be something about them that could produce great TV.

                    If you're saying my cast may be unbalanced I would probably agree but that would be a result of using such a formula/caveat to choose teams
                    I've looked over your cast again, and I hope that Mark & Bill win! I must have not seen them originally. Sorry

                    Awesome.

                    It would be great if they also did a world "All Stars" for the amazing teams that didn't win (the whole world needs to see the under-dog goddesses that is Lumilia)

                    But first

                    -Americans won't care about them because they're not TARUS
                    -Nobody but Australians would care about them because they're TARAus
                    -They'd kinda be predictable first boots imo :(

                    Not sure if anyone's said this, but TAR need to produce a season of first boots.

                    As there's been 20 teams booted first (excluding All Stars, UB & Family Edition), the teams on my list are the most interesting, most likely to cause drama and simply those that would have had a huge possibility of making the Final 3 had they not fell to the first leg curse!

                    TAR 2 - Deidre & Hillary
                    TAR 7 - Ryan & Chuck
                    TAR 10 - Bilal & Sa'eed
                    TAR 13 - Anita & Arthur
                    TAR 14 - Preston & Jennifer
                    TAR 16 - Dana & Adrian
                    TAR 17 - Ron & Tony
                    TAR 20 - Misa & Maiya
                    TAR 21 - Rob & Sheila
                    TAR 22 - Matt & Daniel
                    TAR 23 - Hoskote & Naina

                    (I would also put Eric & Lisa from TAR 15 on there, but they probably wouldn't return!)  :(

                    If this were to happen though, I doubt any team prior to Season 14 would actually be picked, as us fans apparently "Don't Remember" pre TAR 14 teams!  :res:

                    Apparently in an interview they said they wanted nothing more to do with TAR after such a shock elimination.
                    If you remember they didn't even go to the finish line for the season finale. So unless they knew they were guaranteed a spot in the Final 3 I can't see them return. :gaah:

                    Not sure if anyone's said this, but TAR need to produce a season of first boots.

                    As there's been 20 teams booted first (excluding All Stars, UB & Family Edition), the teams on my list are the most interesting, most likely to cause drama and simply those that would have had a huge possibility of making the Final 3 had they not fell to the first leg curse!

                    This would be my ideal "First Boot" cast:

                    THREEPEATERS:

                    TAR 11:
                    John Vito & Jill

                    TAR 18:
                    Amanda & Kris

                    TAR 24:
                    ???

                    NOT-THREEPEATERS:

                    TAR 2: Deidre & Hillary
                    TAR 13: Anita & Arthur
                    TAR 14: Preston & Jennifer
                    TAR 15: Eric & Lisa
                    TAR 16: Dana & Adrian
                    TAR 19: Ethan & Jenna (I loved Jenna on Survivor, and this is still one of the saddest boots I have ever seen idek why)
                    TAR 20: Misa & Maiya
                    TAR 23: Hoskote & Naina

                    The past couple of seasons (mainly TAR 13 and onward) have been horrible for me because usually the teams I'm excited to watch for are booted first :lol:

                    Love the second route! The first route would be great if Liberia wasn't a double Leg. Basically a cheap Ghana, but with a cement and developing corporation, so that country would be good to "get creative".

                    YESYESYES ISRAEL

                    I don't know how much potential Antananarivo has for two legs, maybe you could either go to a different city in Madagascar in Leg 6 or have Legs 4 and 5 in Israel and have Leg 6 in Antananarivo.

                    Here's one that has a 0.1% of happening:

                    For TAR25, since it's the 25th season, everything is doubled. From the number of teams (11 teams to 22 teams), to the EPs (2 EPs for self and 2EPs to be given to another team, to 2 teams receiving the speedbump or getting NEL'd, to a final 6 instead of a final 3.

                    I doubt this so much due to budget, that's why I just placed it on the wishlist thread.

                    Does anyone else have a better idea for the 25th season of TAR?

                    How about just getting a memorable cast and more memorable tasks and locations and go back to more classic style TAR?

                    I wanna see a different kind of u-turn: the u-turn roulette (a wheel with some or all the remaining teams' pictures)
                    The 1st team to reach the u-turn roulette must spin the roulette. They can also u-turn themselves, since it's a roulette. Maybe voting at the start of the leg would do to.

                    I don't know if this would be nice or not on the real TAR, so I didn't post this on the "Changes Viewers Like to See" thread.

                    They had the voting in Season 2 of the Australian version, and I wouldn't be a big fan of it.
                    Not really sure why? It would work in that it could slow down stronger teams E.g. Andy & Tommy or Dave & Rachel, but I just don't like the whole idea of the teams voting.  It relates it too much to Survivor or Big Brother, and that's the one thing that separates the race from other reality shows, so I'd prefer not to see a voting U-Turn.

                    As for the roulette wheel, again I think it's one of those ideas that looks good on paper, but wouldn't really work in reality.  I don't think many teams would use it knowing there's a risk of U-Turning themselves, and for teams at the back it would just be a game of luck for them, to hope it lands on the one or two teams that may be trailing them.  I think this concept would only work for the first or second team that arrives at it.

                    Honestly, I think the U-Turn is fine as it is and any change would only hinder the concept.  ???

                    I dislike the U-Turn roulette, I agree that it would not be used, and that there is already too much luck in the race as it is.

                    But I do like the idea of the voting U-Turn and how it can cause drama and it adds another element to the game which is great to see.

                    The voting kind of defeats the whole purpose of the U-turn and like people have been saying, makes it more like Survivor or Big Brother. But more importantly, the whole point of the U-turn is that it's a reward for the team that gets there first, just like everything is on TAR. If everyone votes ahead of time to get rid of the team that's in first, it kind of defeats the purpose.

                    Though I never REALLY liked team YouTube, I think they were good if not great for their first season, but on an all-stars.... They literally have no chance to compete and stay in, unless it's an early boot second-chance type of season :(

                    My interpretation of WRP's route planning:

                    START: Lake Eola, Orlando, Florida
                    Leg 1: to Santiago, Chile to Mt. Aconagua, Argentina
                     (I mean they've done this drive before so there's no problem)

                    Leg 2: to Mendoza to Iguazu Falls, Argentina
                    (Let's assume the rainforest related tasks are far better than the most recent example)

                    Leg 3: to Cologne, Germany to Luxembourg
                    (What a perfect way to give away some free Honda vehicles, yes?)

                    Leg 4: to Oslo, Norway
                     (Nighttime leg, possibly of the "congratulations now skidoo" variety. Bonus points if there's a reference to Of Montreal)

                    Leg 5: to Stavanger, Norway
                    (I NEED a Pit Stop on Pulpit's Rock. Bonus points if there's a wedding task concerning Grieg)

                    Leg 6: to Paphos, Cyprus
                    (Brb smacking you in the face with history and bathing suits)

                    Leg 7: to Tashkent, Uzbekistan
                     ( Kazakhstan doesn't want us, Kyrgyzstan only exists on Sporcle and the other countries in that area are either genetic, Really Dangerous [:( at no Tehran leg] or lacking in infrastructure for WRP)

                    Leg 8: to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
                    (I do recall good episodes happen here so why not?)

                    Leg 9: to Da Lat, Vietnam
                    (and I do recall most trips to Vietnam have a second reasonably good leg so why not have a leg in Paris-litr)

                    Leg 10: to Uluru, Australia
                    (Monuments are fun. If anything I envision a leg ending in the evening with stargazing and camping)

                    Leg 11: to Sydney, Australia
                    (I know its unoriginal to have the penultimate leg be of the 'party time' variety but I mean Sydney delivers)

                     FINISH: Ka'a'awa Valley, Hawaii
                    (Finish line by a dinosaur footprint? Why not?)

                    Otherwise I guess you could have a leg in Bishkek. It would def need a Sporcle-related Fast Forward though.  :yess:

                    I'd like a route similar to this:

                    LEG 1 USA to Tokyo, Japan (Japan  :luvya:)
                    LEG 2 Tokyo to Kyoto (two sides of Japan: modern and ancient)
                    LEG 3 Kyoto to Siem Reap, Cambodia (a good southeast Asian country)
                    LEG 4 Siem Reap to Queenstown, New Zealand (WE NEED MORE OCEANIA and New Zealand  :hoot:)
                    LEG 5 Queenstown to Invercargill/Bluff to Mount Cook Area/ Fox Glacier (yay for NZ and self-driving legs!)
                    LEG 6 Queenstown to Mumbai/Hyderabad, India (they both have potential but Mumbai has been visited before)
                    LEG 7 Mumbai/Hyderabad to Johannesburg, South Africa (rural areas outside J-Burg. Mainly used for access to..)
                    LEG 8 J-Burg to LESOTHO!  :luvya: (Lesotho has a lot of potential tasks could be in Maseru and nearby areas/villages)
                    LEG 9 Lesotho to Cologne, Germany (Germany is a great country and, while slightly overused, a visit to Cologne would be nice)
                    LEG 10 Cologne to Bremen (night leg self-drive? Double U-Turn for trouble...)
                    LEG 11 Bremen to Lisbon, Portugal (I know TAR23 just went there but we need more Portugal! :) )
                    LEG 12 Lisbon to Boston, Mass., USA (Maybe a Cape Cod finish; there's a beach called Race Point Beach in Cape Cod national seashore that would be fitting for a Finish Line)

                    And to go along with that winter-favored route posted earlier, a summery one <3

                    START: Gateway Arch, St. Louis, MO

                    Leg 1: to Calgary, Canada to Banff National Park, Canada
                    (Seriously, people have been complaining about Canada not having a "real" Pit Stop since TAR 9. Adventure sports, orienteering, possibly a rappel, y'know, basic leg 1 stuff)

                    Leg 2: to Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada
                    (So I WAS going to simply put in a Vancouver leg because that's what most people do but screw it, it's my fantasy race. Language tasks, dog race training, mining, y'know, basic leg 2 stuff)

                    Leg 3: to Chengdu, China
                    (blahblah China but Chengdu is fun and awesome and spicy and there HAS to be a forced game of baijiu roulette at some point in our edition of TAR)

                    Leg 4: to (+++) to Kratie, Cambodia
                    (the leg itself will be entirely in Kratie (your standard 'simple way of living in SE Asia leg') but the fun part of the leg is that teams aren't told how to get to Kratie - either through Phnom Penh or through Siem Reap. NEL because why punish people on a strategy-driven leg?)

                    Leg 5: to Bangkok, Thailand to Pattaya, Thailand
                    (...when we can punish them here   :snicker: Imagine the F4 elim of TAR 15 with the language difficulties and crazy mental tasks and alcohol and drunken locals, then imagine it with twice as many teams and with a Switchback to the Reclining Buddha FF (now a regular task)<3 )

                    Leg 6: to Doha, Qatar
                    (I mean if everyone here posts it enough, maybe WRP will actually host a leg here  :funny:)

                    Leg 7: to Bari, Italy to Matera, Italy
                    (whatever on the leg as long as the Pit Stop is here (http://www.hotelsantangelosassi.it/en/the-resort/))

                    Leg 8: to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
                    (when is the last time we've had a good urban African leg?)

                    Leg 9: to Bahir Dar, Ethiopia to Gondar, Ethiopia
                    (coffee, goats, Amharic lessons, castles, and an NEL? why not)

                    Leg 10: to Toulouse, France to Andorra to Zaragoza, Spain
                    (rockets, product placed vehicles, and killer fatigue make for a grueling leg <3)

                    Leg 11: to Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
                    (TIL: Santo Domingo is the largest city by population in the Caribbean. Imagine a less horrid version of the Panama leg in 19 with presumably a less awesome result)

                    FINISH: National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame Rooftop Terrace, Chicago, IL
                    (in 23/4 seasons I don't understand why the insanely spoilerphobic WRP hasn't yet decided to rent a roof out to host the final Pit Stop)
                    (also food-related memory challenge <3)

                    I hope Race come back to Thailand, my country, again. And make up with some good legs. The last one on TAR14 and 19 aren't really impressive. Especially the Bangkok II in TAR19. (:;)

                    The area they went is pretty redundant. They rarely touch the north amd northeast part of Thailand which had a lot of cultural things and specific traditions, but instead, THEY ALWAYS go to Phuket and Bangkok and those stuff. Which is really boring since it almost look the same every time.

                    Also, Had they ever done the Songkran things in the Race. It would be really cool to add a task with this water festival. Like seaching the clue in Holi festival in TAR13. This would be really fun to watch and can drive some teams to break down for sure.

                    Leg 1   Denver, United States → Ottawa, Canada
                    Leg 2   Ottawa, Canada → Edinburgh, Scotland
                    Leg 3   Edinburgh, Scotland → Liverpool, England
                    Leg 4   Liverpool, England → London, England
                    Leg 5   London, England → Maputo, Mozambique
                    Leg 6   Maputo, Mozambique → Hhohho, Swaziland
                    Leg 7   Hhohho, Swaziland → Capri, Italy
                    Leg 8   Capri, Italy → Plovdiv, Bulgaria
                    Leg 9   Plovdiv, Bulgaria → Kandy, Sri Lanka
                    Leg 10   Kandy, Sri Lanka → Colombo, Sri Lanka
                    Leg 11   Colombo, Sri Lanka → Melbourne, Australia
                    Leg 12   Melbourne, Australia → Seattle, Washington

                    Good route, but 3 legs in the UK is a bit much. Similarly, the first 4 legs of the race are in an English- speaking country, Swaziland and Sri Lanka have decent English-speaking populations, and Australia and USA speak English, so there aren't too many possibilities for a Language Barrier, which is disappointing.

                    So I was in such a wishlist mood today, I went and created two complete Legs complete with "episode caps." 
                    http://dryedmangoez.com/2014/04/15/the-amazing-race-us-finally-returns-to-the-philippines/
                    ^These are the first two Legs in the Philippines.

                    And yeah, it's THREE! Legs in the Philippines since the first two Legs can be one super/double/TBC Leg and also since it will probably take 20 more seasons to return to the Philippines anyway.  Plus, it's just my dream to have TAR up where my family's from.  But also, we NEED Pig or Jig 4.0 Detour in Legazpi. lol

                    Also, I know it sucks that there's six Legs in Southeast Asia, but I definitely want a Nepal Leg and the only way to do that without having horrible logistics trouble with overly complicated flights (which we know TAR hates these days), I needed the Singapore and Mumbai Legs. 


                    Leg 1 - San Francisco, CA, USA > Bontoc, Mountain Province, Philippines
                    Leg 2 - Bontoc, Philippines > Tuguegarao City, Philippines
                    Leg 3 - Tuguegarao City > Legazpi City, Philippines
                    Leg 4 - Legazpi City > Singapore
                    Leg 5 - Singapore > Kathmandu, Nepal
                    Leg 6 - Kathmandu, Nepal > Mumbai, India
                    Leg 7 - Mumbai, India > Johannesburg, South Africa
                    Leg 8 - Johannesburg, South Africa > Maseru, Lesotho
                    Leg 9 - Maseru, Lesotho > Brussels, Belgium
                    Leg 10 - Brussels, Belgium > Paris, France
                    Leg 11 - Paris, France > Reykjavik, Iceland
                    Leg 12 - Reykjavik, Iceland > Denver, Colorado, USA

                    It would be more feasible if the they went eastward or westward rather than making a giant circle. ;)

                    Yes. xD Well, on TAR 7 they made the giant circle. xD

                    So... the route will be:

                    Leg 1: Seattle, USA -> Acapulco de Juárez, México
                    Leg 2: México -> Ushuaia, Argentina
                    Leg 3: Argentina -> Tóshavn, Feroe Islands (Kingdrom of Denmark)
                    Leg 4: Feroe Islands -> Luxembourg city, Luxembourg
                    Leg 5: Luxembourg -> Zagreb, Croatia (Night leg)
                    Leg 6: Dubrovnik, Croatia
                    Leg 7: Croatia -> Jerusalem, Israel
                    Leg 8: Israel -> Kimberley, South Africa
                    Leg 9: Cape Town, South Africa
                    Leg 10: South Africa -> Tasmania, Australia
                    Leg 11: Australia -> Solomon Islands
                    Leg 12: Solomon Islands -> San Francisco, USA

                    Maybe it's better, yeah. xD

                    I really loved the TARAu Israel legs.  It would be amazing if TARUS will ever be able to go.

                    Here's my first proposed route. Feel free to critique!

                    • USA --> Spain (Allentown, PA --> Lugo, Spain) 11 --> 10 (Double Roadblock Leg)
                    • Spain (Lugo, Spain --> Salamanca, Spain) 10 --> 9
                    • Spain --> Poland (Salamanca, Spain --> Elblag. Poland) 9 --> 8
                    • Poland --> Austria (Elblag, Poland --> Bregenz, Austria) 8 --> 8 (KOR)
                    • Austria (Bregenz, Austria) 8 --> 7 (U-Turn x2)
                    • Austria --> Slovenia (Bregenz, Austria --> Kranj, Slovenia) 7 --> 6
                    • Slovenia --> Seychelles (Kranj, Slovenia --> Beau Vallon, Seychelles) 6--> 6 (NEL)
                    • Seychelles --> Madagascar (Beau Vallon, Seychelles --> Toliara, Madagascar) 6 --> 5
                    • Madagascar --> Thailand (Toliara, Madagascar --> Chiang Rai, Thailand) 5 --> 5 (NEL)
                    • Thailand --> Nepal (Chiang Rai, Thailand --> Katmandu, Nepal) 5 --> 4 (U-Turn x2)
                    • Nepal --> New Zealand (Katmandu, Nepal --> Paihia, New Zealand) 4 --> 3
                    • New Zealand --> USA (Paihia, New Zealand --> Tahoma, Washington) (Double Roadblock Leg)
                    I like it a lot! It's a 5-continent race, which is a lot better than 3 CONTINENTS (cough cough TAR24 cough) but I think that 6 Europe Legs may be a bit much. They're still very interesting locations I'd like to see, though. And Nepal makes any route great.

                    Thanks! I thought it was a bit Euro-centric as well, and I was trying to think of some places in Africa that I haven't used before (There are some places that I would absolutely love to use, but can't because of safety concerns...like another Tunisia visit or somewhere in West Africa). I have some other routes sketched out as well, and I'll put those up when I find them. Maybe replacing the sixth Europe leg with a third Africa leg would also work?

                    I had another route proposed, but it has to change big time, as the first three legs are set in Russia and Ukraine when I wrote them up a few months ago (harsher in hindsight, huh?), which also stinks because I do think a Sochi leg would be interesting.

                    I would also like to see Tunisia, but with the Arab Spring I doubt we'll see it any time soon. Same with Russia/Ukraine, although somehow TARAUS managed to go to St. Petersburg. A Sochi leg will indeed be interesting, but we'll have to wait maybe a few years for that. I'd like to see some of the other routes you've mentioned.

                    TAR really needs to visit Central America more. Mexico and Costa Rica have only been visited twice, and Panama has been visited once! Even Honduras and Nicaragua (doubtful) would be nice!

                    As much as I would like Belize to be visited, there's not much history or cultural ideology to integrate within that country. I know El Salvador is known for Chaparrastique and its ecotourism and Guatemala holds the sacred Tikal Ruins, just not sure what Belize has to offer.

                    YAY I CAN'T SLEEP HERE'S A ROUTE WITH OVERUSED COUNTRIES
                    (there's a theme here though  :-[)

                    START: Brooklyn, NY (Start Line: Prospect Park)
                    (home of one Steve Rogers :O)

                    LEG 1: to Queenstown, New Zealand to Milford Sound, New Zealand (Pit Stop at Milford Sound somewhere)
                    (okay so these races of mine historically have intro legs at or around mountains so HIII Mitre Peak <3
                    give these people a car and let them have at it with the adventure sports)


                    LEG 2: to Auckland, New Zealand (Pit Stop: Mt. Eden)
                    (I don't know if it's me but it seems like legs in the North Island are either bad or quickly turn into rural legs. I think a leg within Auckland city limits could be fun <3)

                    LEG 3: to Hong Kong, SAR, China (Pit Stop: The Peak Terrace)
                    (that awkward moment when the best Hong Kong leg of ANY series is the one with exactly 0 physical OR mental tasks)

                    LEG 4: to Mumbai, India to Aurangabad, India (Pit Stop: Bibi Ka Maqbara (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bibi_Ka_Maqbara))
                    (we haven't really had a "rural" Indian leg since the sexist one in Alleppy no?)

                    LEG 5: to Harare, Zimbabwe (Pit Stop: African Unity Fountain)
                    (a leg based on activism and public service would be a creative way to have the annual 'omg there are poor people in Africa' leg)

                    LEG 6: to Kruger National Park, South Africa (Pit Stop: within the park itself)
                    (if we're going to have an annual safari leg, can we have it a) be within a giant park with good infrastructure that can allow for difficult tasks and navigation and b) be a nonelimination leg?)

                    LEG 7: to Sossusvlei, Namibia (Pit Stop: pick anywhere lol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sossusvlei))
                    (things I have a thing for: mountains in leg 1, desert-based legs)

                    LEG 8: to Petra, Jordan (Pit Stop: High Place of Sacrifice)
                    (so this is the reverse of TAR5, what with the generic desert leg first and the iconic monument in a desert second, yes? camels mandatory)

                    LEG 9: to Valletta, Malta (Pit Stop: Auberge de Castille)
                    (things I have a thing for: mountains in leg 1, desert-based legs, legs in or around the Mediterranean)

                    LEG 10: to Dwerja, Malta (Pit Stop: Azure Window)
                    (in this race you EARN your swimsuit leg)

                    LEG 11: to Manchester, England (Pit Stop: Exchange Square)
                    (there was initially two legs in the UK to finish this race around the British Empire but then I was like...MALTA so ya, basic city leg in Europe, lots of driving, maybe a gnome idk)

                    LEG 12: to Boston, MA Philadelphia, PA (Pit Stop: aboard the USS Constitution Belmont Mansion)
                    (there's quite possibly no better way to end a race like this then at the city famous for trolling the British <3 there MUST be tasks involving the Freedom Trail, learning, and a Detour between Tea and Beer <3) (so it turns out that Boston works for another race for...reasons, so Philly it is! Equally American in nature, with tasks such as a Detour between reproducing the Constitution in text or getting people to correctly state part of the Declaration of Independence, a task of or having to do with making an American flag, and presumably a cheesesteak-eating contest of some sort. Maybe a run up the Rocky steps, idk. Plus, the finish memory task is in JAIL <3)

                    Then producers must make a TAR5 or TAR6 style cast. They can have LGBT teams on another season.

                    They don't actually they should just avoid Belize entirely because there is nothing to do there and no real reason to go AND the cast/the route is designed seperately I think (which is why TAR24 is not necessarily a strong route) so I don't think it's necessarily a good idea to go to a boring non-LGBT rights associated country like Belize.

                    ANOTHER THEME ROUTE AREN'T YOU EXCITED?

                     :zz:

                    Anyway:

                    START: Miami, Florida
                    (it would appear that I'm laying things on a bit thick, no?)

                    LEG 1: to Belo Horizonte, Brazil to Ouro Preto, Brazil
                    (and the answer is no lol. Belo is, I do believe, the last 'major' city in Brazil to not get a leg so while I would've rather had a leg in say, Curitiba, I think there's enough to do in an introductory leg. No mountain though [I had initially had this as Rio and had the Pit Stop at Sugarloaf but things changed :(])

                    LEG 2: to Buenos Aires, Argentina to Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay
                    (firstly, all of like 5 people watched TARLA 3 so I feel fine with appropriating this routing. more importantly, tasks involving tango dancing and textile making and non-flight related international trips, because those are always fun)

                    LEG 3: to Maputo, Mozambique to Inhambane, Mozambique
                    (the forced stop in Maputo is mainly for logistic purposes, given that the last time TAR spent a decent amount of time flying around southern Africa all hell broke loose  :res: That said, Detour in Maputo, charter flights to Inhambane, and a reasonably difficult RB in Inhambane before the Pit Stop)

                    LEG 4: to Luanda, Angola
                    (I think everyone here has had a leg in Luanda at some point *shrugs*)

                    LEG 5: to Pico Island, Azores
                    (BAM, mountain and completely random destination to boot <3)

                    LEG 6: to Porto, Portugal
                    (thus continuing the motif of 'visiting great Empires' second cities)

                    LEG 7: to Muscat, Oman
                    (seriously, camels make everything better)

                    LEG 8: to Kochi, India
                    (so do elephants and ridiculously complex dance routines)

                    LEG 9: to Panjim, Goa, India via Vasco da Gama, India
                    (India was kind of a big deal to the Portuguese so here we are.)

                    LEG 10: to Malacca, Malaysia
                    (maybe we'll get a good Malaysia leg for a change?)

                    LEG 11: to Nagasaki, Japan
                    (maybe we'll get a good Japan leg for a change?)

                    FINISH: Boston, MA
                    (beer, Red Sox, learning, memorizing, Freedom Trailing, and someone winning a large sum of money aboard a giant ship <3)

                     :knuckles:  I think the TAR24 "locations team" fell short on scouting the Wales/Liverpool leg.  Instead of briefly dashing through Wales, "throwing shoes" and "killing clay pigeons", they could have visited one of the most popular tourist locations in Wales, namely Portmeirion.

                    Yes, Portmeirion, which contains "The Village", where they filmed the British TV series "The Prisoner".

                    OMG!!! That would've been amazing. It's a stunning place.  Maybe even a trippy Prisoner-inspired task. 

                    Speaking of The Prisoner, how awesome would it have been if the TAR24 teams had gotten gobbled up by Rover.  :snicker:

                    Talking about Las Vegas... The city is the main enviroment for one of the longest running prime-time shows of CBS - C.S.I. -; and although most of the recording is made at Universal City and Santa Clarita, woulldn't be great having a CSI themed task on the final?

                    Just a wish...  :)

                    Ever get tired of seeing a W-turn (Especially when the team who got U-turned 1st used the 2nd slot)?
                    Then I wish TAR adds a No U-turn picture/board. It is placed inside the big U-turn box. Teams can use it without having to fill up or use the courtesy of photo on the W-turn board. Teams can only use it if they didn't U-turn anybody that leg.

                    Sample scenario:
                    Tim & Danny U-turn Leo & Jamal.
                    (Let's say) Travis & Nicole put up the No U-turn board/picture on the second slot. (They can still U-turn another team next time.)
                    So... Afghanimals would not be able to U-turn Brandam, since the 2nd slot has been occupied with a No U-turn board.

                    Is this good? Or are there any problems? I know the best thing for TAR to do is just put a normal/blind (one-slot) U-turn, but I'm trying to find a flaw in this idea. I remember asking the U-turn roulette in this thread and somebody found the bad side right away.

                    I don't know if this would become a thing because if you really wanted to make a Second U-Turn go away, someone would just use the Twinnie strategy. And plus with the no-uturn option, someone can just easily put it there in first place just for the lolz because it won't hurt them and they wouldn't lose a CoP.

                    I also want the single U-turn back. But the No U-turn card can trick the teams. Teams will think it's a W-turn (with 2 slots), but one slot can be blocked. Teams will think "In case we get U-turned, we U-turn the team behind us." But once they found out that the other slot has been blocked, they can't do anything. IMO, Twinnies' idea on the 2nd W-turn was genius.

                    I like the locations, but I don't know if they would all work in a season together.
                    For example, Iqaluit, Nuuk, and Manitsoq are all similar in culture and landscape. It would be challenging to make three different legs, and viewers would get tired of the tundra and ice by Leg 3.

                    Well, Banda Aceh is not a great idea since they have their own culture that is REALLY different with any other cities in Indonesia. EVERY WOMAN in the province should wear veils and wear an extremely closed outfit. EVERY MAN couldn't wear shorts. If they don't want to use trousers, they have to wear sarongs.  blahblah yes, it's really depressing.

                    Btw, I'm agree that Padang will someday be visited. They have great culture and so on.

                    I'm Indonesian btw, so trust me  ;) OH ! and you have to visit Jakarta someday!

                    Actually what I want them to do is this:
                    Leg 4: Double U-Turn. Told to teams at the start of the leg.
                    Leg 7: Double U-Turn. Told to teams with the Detour clue.
                    Leg 10: Single U-Turn. Told to teams at the END of the Detour. So the last team standing having not yet used the U-Turn could change the game's landscape.

                    I think that would make a really good leg. Heavy culture shock was always something this show was great at, and seems to have lessened a little bit in later years. Not to mention, I'm always a fan of dressing teams up  :o

                    Especially if teams don't expect a third U-Turn board to come up. :snicker:

                    If I could add to a season's design:

                    10 teams, 12 legs.
                    Leg 1: Non-elimination. Starts out in Texas (the Alamo, maybe?) and teams goes to South America. Peru or Bolivia, perhaps. Even Suriname. 1 Roadblock and 1 Detour.
                    Leg 2: Elimination. Teams go to the Caribbean. Curacao, The Bahamas, or Trinidad & Tobago.
                    Leg 3: Elimination. Teams go to Canada. Maybe they'd splice a task or two from the first TARC. Or even better, have an Intersection with the Canadian teams if their filiming coincides. The first Fast Forward would appear.
                    Leg 4: Non-elimination. Teams fly to the Philippines (either direct or via South Korea I think...). I'm guessing teams would enter through Manila, but I'm actually hoping they would visit Cebu, Vigan, or Davao.
                    Leg 5: Elimination. Teams stay in the Philippines, but fly to another island. A Double U-Turn would appear. The second Fast Forward would appear.
                    Leg 6: Non-elimination. Teams go to Oceania (Australia, Palau, New Caledonia)
                    Leg 7: Elimination. Teams go to Nepal. Second Double U-Turn would appear. Another Fast Forward (maybe they could use that special helicopter that flies towards the summit of Everest?)
                    Leg 8: Non-elimination or Keep Racing. South Africa. A task that I'd like to show up would use that fact that South Africa has so many official regional languages.
                    Leg 9: Elimination. Stay in South Africa or go to Namibia/Angola. The fourth and last Fast Forward appears. I actually want this to be a double-length leg (w/ a faux pit stop with no Phil, just a clue box by the mat). So teams had to run 3 legs straight with no pit stop (but probably with HoO) The FF appears in the second part of the double-length leg.
                    Leg 10: Elimination. Race goes to Europe. Maybe Romania, Croatia, Lithuania, Latvia, or Finland. A Single U-Turn appears.
                    Leg 11: Elimination. Teams head to either West Europe (Gibraltar, Ireland, Andorra) or Central America (for this one, I'd like them to go to Costa Rica and make a Switchback to the red coffee bean Roadblock in S8 [Hi Tammy! :waves:])
                    Leg 12: Finale. They could probably go to Chicago as the final destination city, but I actually want to see cross-state driving (like in S8). The memory task would be the one Roadblock, and the finale also have a Detour. So that's 12 RBs, so only up to 6 RBs per team member.

                    Concept for a future season of TAR:

                    At least one twist or extra task per leg.

                    Twists & special tasks:
                    - W-turn (2 of these)
                    - Speed Bump (3 of these)
                    - Fast Forward (3 of these)
                    - Start line task/Hazard
                    - Intersection
                    - Bypass: An optional task that lets the first team who finishes start an hour earlier on the following leg.
                    - Double-back: A double u-turn on a roadblock.
                    - Fork-in-the-road: A splice of detour and roadblock, with two tasks, each of which one team member must perform simultaneously.
                    - First leg prize: Free U-turn on any detour through leg 8.
                    - Double express pass goes to first team to win 2 legs OR first team to win SL task and 1 leg, whichever happens first.

                    Legs:
                    1 - Honolulu, USA -> Melbourne, Australia (SL task)(Hazard)(11th place EL)
                    2 - Melbourne, Australia -> Manila, Philippines (Intersection)(10th place EL)
                    3 - rural Philippines (FF #1)(9th place NEL)
                    4 - Manila, Philippines -> Kolkata, India (SB #1)(9th place EL)
                    5 - Kolkata, India -> Darjeeling, India (FF #2)(8th place EL)
                    6 - Darjeeling, India -> Doha, Qatar (W-turn #1)(7th place EL)
                    7 - Doha, Qatar -> rural Angola (Bypass)(6th place NEL)
                    8 - Luanda, Angola (W-turn #2)(SB #2)(6th place EL)
                    9 - Luanda, Angola -> Prague, Czech Republic (Double-back)(5th place NEL)
                    10 - Prague, Czech Republic -> Paris, France (Night leg)(FF #3)(SB #3)(5th place EL)
                    11 - Paris, France -> Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (Fork-in-the-road)(4th place EL)
                    12 - Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic -> Colorado Springs, USA (FINALE)

                    A double u-turn on a roadblock.

                    Not bad, here's my opinion:
                    Twists & special tasks:
                    - W-turn (2 of these)
                    - Normal single U-turn (1 or 2 of these)
                    - Speed Bump (2 of these)
                    - Fast Forward (3 of these)
                    - Start line task/Hazard
                    - Intersection
                    - Yield (2 of these)
                    - Bypass: An optional task that lets the first team who finishes start an hour earlier on the following leg.
                    - Double-back: A double u-turn on a roadblock.
                    - Fork-in-the-road: A splice of detour and roadblock, with two tasks, each of which one team member must perform simultaneously.
                    - First leg prize: Free U-turn on any detour through leg 8.
                    - Double express pass goes to first team to win 2 legs OR first team to win SL task and 1 leg, whichever happens first.
                    - The SLT winner can take the salvage pass / express pass.

                    St. Louis Arch, gateway for the west;
                    Mt Rushmore (Presidents representing 4 ideas), contrast with nearby Crazy Horse;
                    Padre Island National Sea Shore (find a sand dollar).
                    Carlsbad Caverns, adventure spelunking;
                    Grand Canyon,
                    Sequioa National Park, Grant Grove.
                    International will take more thought,

                    I once thought of a TAR twist that was called a Wrong Turn, it would be a U-Turn for Roadblocks, but I think watching a team do a Roadblock again would be boring :lol:
                    if the twist forces the team member who sat out previously to do the roadblock , it will be interesting to see

                    I think they should make a twist like the uturn but with roadblocks instead, one team chooses another team to do the roadblock again but with the other person who didnt do it first??

                    I was thinking of a Road Block that BOTH members would have to perform.

                    That is, a two-facet Road Block.  There are two separate parts and teams would have to decide which part of the RB they would do before opening up the clue.  (basing their decision only on the tease/question, like a regular RB)
                    It was because I saw a Korean traditional dance on TV one time.  In this case, one team member would have to learn how to perform on the drums while the other learned the dance.  They would then come together to perform the full routine.  Of course, once they decide who does what, they can't switch.

                    Sorry, but Jacksonville is a bad place for a starting line. The only place is travels to outside the USA is to the Bahamas. LAX, while over-used, or Honolulu are much better choices for flying to Samoa.

                    Sorry, but Jacksonville is a bad place for a starting line. The only place is travels to outside the USA is to the Bahamas. LAX, while over-used, or Honolulu are much better choices for flying to Samoa.
                    Oh, I did not know that! thanks for informing me! then they could connect from Jacksonville to LAX

                    • Dobšinská Ice Cave near Košice has breathtaking stalactites/gmites and plenty of simple, yet challenging Roadblock potential.
                    • Travelocity Roaming Gnome pick-up at the singing fountains in Košice
                    • Long blood sausage link delivery to obscure deli (without breaking)
                    • Ice hockey in Bratislava or Košice
                    • Bojnice Castle in the Trenčín Region is a vibrant and Disney-esque medieval castle yearning to be a Pit Stop
                    • Czechoslovakian-inspired tasks around Bratislava and/or Košice.

                    I think they should visit Vatican, even if it is only a pitstop (like Salzburg) or only one task (like Liechtenstein)
                    And I really want at least two fast forwards in each race. Why they don't do the fast forwards that they didn't show in the race, like the dangle from a helicopter or use own money to buy stuff?

                    I made a list of countries TAR hasn't gone and should go, if there is any one that I missed or someone that TAR should avoid tell me:

                    Central America: Nicaragua
                    South America: Suriname (Hopefully one day we will see Colombia and Venezuela, but not now, those two countries are a complete mess)
                    Africa: Uganda/Rwanda, Gabon, Mayotte/Reunion, Lesotho
                    Asia: Jordan, Qatar, Nepal, Laos, Armenia, Myanmar

                    My TAR fanfiction result:

                    Teams:
                    Brian & Mike
                    Brian Mile, 57
                    Mike Mile, 25
                    Father/Son team from Missouri and Indiana. Brian is an lazy and ignorant father of Mike, but he is very kind and mindful. The reason he only performed 1 Roadblock, not because he is lazy, but whining that he is too old to do a physical task. Most tasks that they encounter were physical. Expect Leg 10. They dominated that leg, but losing 1st place to Lauren & Travis due Fast Forward. The other teams were struggled or lost. In final leg, they got best flight to NYC, and almost collided a Aerolineas Argetinas aircraft in runway in JFK airport. They only need less than 2 hours to complete all tasks. And they made to Finish Line and win.

                    Lauren & Travis
                    Lauren Konzelman, 33
                    Travis Konzelman, 36
                    Typical married couple from Montana. They have 12 children. They spend 30% on race about bickering. They made into final 3, but lost to winners because the plane is crashed to a bay 3 km from Miami en route to finale city, New York City from Caracas, killing most of the passengers, expect Lauren & Travis and their crew. The flight is American Airlines owned. Lauren is very feminist, good, often get confused. While Travis is athletic, bodybuilder, kind, and very smart. He even graduated from an university and once playing for a major sports in Los Angeles for a while. After 1 hours 55 minutes of evacuation and searching for a flight to NYC, they found a flight, Delta Air Lines owned. In NYC, 2 hours were needed to finish all task, and they made into Finish Line.

                    Vanessa & Alice
                    Vanessa Sanchez, 27
                    Alice Sanchez, 23
                    Sisters from California and Massachusetts.  They are very optimistic, athletic, good, charismatic, lucky, and smart. They made to final 3, but lost to winners because they got stranded in Dominica Republic when their plane is got emergency landing, malfunctioning and delayed for 3 hours. Finally they found other flight less than 3 hours later. These flights are both American Airlines owned. But after in NYC, they get robbed by a group of thiefs in an very less crowded street intersection. The thiefs were found 15 minutes later by police. Their crew were also robbed. They got their goods back. In 2 hours later after they complete all task of final leg, they made to Finish Line, only lost 55 minutes to Lauren & Travis for 2nd place. Vanessa is lucky, smart, good and charismatic tennis player. Alice is athletic, smart, optimistic and lucky part-time maid and part-time sports teacher.

                    Since they apparently copied a leg from tar asia, I hope next season, if they go to SA, they copy one of the good legs that tarla did

                    How TAR24's finale Leg supposedly should have been also considering, you guessed it, BUDGET! *-:)

                    • (http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414140833/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/1/1e/Flight.png) London (London-Heathrow Airport) to Las Vegas, Nevada, United States (McCarran International Airport)
                    • Las Vegas (Luxor Hotel & Cas.)
                    • Las Vegas (Rio Hotel & Cas. - Carnival World Buffet) (http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414142122/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/1/1b/Roadblock.png)
                    • Las Vegas (Neon Boneyard)
                    • Las Vegas (The Mirage)
                    • Boulder City (Flightlinez Bootleg Canyon)
                    • Boulder City (Bootleg Canyon) (http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414142858/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/b/be/PitStop.png) (Finish Line)
                    Roadblock: One team member must consume one of each food item at the buffet before a busboy hands them their next clue.

                    Additional tasks
                    — At Luxor Hotel & Casino, teams had to rappel up the side of the hotel with metal ascenders for each teammate to grab one-half of a clue. (Replaces expensively bad "magic" task)
                    — At Neon Boneyard, teams had to collect a lightbulb from a neon sign. (Same misc. task)
                    — Upon climbing onto The Mirage's window-wash swinging stage, teams had to find the socket with the missing bulb among hundreds of lit ones. Then, they must screw in the bulb collected from the Neon Boneyard to receive their next clue. (No "how many TAR24 F3 idiots does it take to count the number of lightbulbs?"/Less time at a pointless task)
                    — At Flightlinez Bootleg Canyon, teams had to ride the zip-line into the canyon. (No mini-controversial skydive)
                    — After the zip-line, teams had to run half a mile to a marked area. Once there, teams must arrange eleven camera pictures of sights on a board, one for each Leg, to receive their final clue. There are 64 other photos in the mix to trick teams. ORDER: Canton Tower, Chen Clan Academy, Kiansom Waterfall, Batu Caves, Gangaramaya Temple, Ambepussa Rest House's treehouse, Piazza di Spagna, Piazza del Duomo, Chapel Bridge, La Alameda - Greek God Statues, and Anfield. (CHEAP, DECENT MEMORY TASK THAT DOESN'T REQUIRE MUCH MONEY!)
                    — The final clue instructs teams to ride/walk a bike along one of three trails during the darkening sky to the Finish Line.

                    ----

                    This is only an example and also half an hour of thought process.

                    Problem with your leg Rachel is

                    1. Unless one team has a major meltdown with heights (unlikely!), the zipline task is still linear (even with multiple ziplines)
                    2. Do you realize that Connor is a professional cyclist (cycles for Team Armstrong and if I remember correctly Dave is ex-pro or semi-pro), and they can out-cycle the other teams??

                    1. Yes, the zip-lining is a linear task, but it's not the last task of the race so teams still have a chance to catch up because teams will have to struggle at the final/memory task. :) Remember the Portland zipline in TAR13?
                    2. Since the final Leg is originally set at night, it certainly won't guarantee Dave & Connor would win because Bootleg Canyon has no light source when it gets dark. Plus, pro cyclists, current and former, pedal on flat surfaces during races. Bootleg Canyon's terrain is:

                    What do you mean budget? I don't think Nepal is expensive. I assume there is another reason that makes it hard for TAR to go there. Also, they don't need to go to Mount Everest, this is not the only destination in the entire country

                    I love the TARSA idea, but I feel like teams could easily drive from Mendoza to Santiago. Unless you want an equalizer.

                    Initially, I felt the self-drive to Santiago could have been great with an Andes Mountain task or two, but I thought a Leg in Valparaíso would have been better.

                    I'd like the US version of the show to include some Latinos. Seems like it's a large segment of the US population but under-represented on TV.

                    I'd love another Latin team on the Race again. The most recent pair of Latinos/as I can think is Marianna & Julia from TAR12.

                    Paris is approx. 8 hours and 40 minutes from Andorra
                    Madrid is approx. 6 hours and 10 minutes from Andorra.

                    If this were to happen both cities would have to be a LOT closer to the next destination, as well as equidistant.

                    Lisbon was about 5 hours from algeciras, so they wouldn't have to be that much closer. I just picked some locations at random, but the point is the split in countries

                    via Sao Paulo and Johannesburg, there are several flights. Teams have had longer flights in the past, I'm sure.

                    This is one that I feel that The Amazing Race Australia (or if an Amazing Race New Zealand is introduced) should only really visit. Gallipoli, Turkey. It's nearly 100 years since the landing at ANZAC cove, both my mother's grandfathers fought in World War 1 and it would be an incredibly moving place to visit.

                    Yes, Chicago does need another finale. There was only one task, and it involved eating pizza, something most Americans eat almost every month. Many of the first 11 seasons' finale cities need to be redone, because they involved intermediate destinations with only 0-2 tasks in the actual final city.

Many of the first 11 seasons' finale cities need to be redone, because they involved intermediate destinations with only 0-2 tasks in the actual final city.
                    Gino's East Pizzeria :luvya: The restaurant has Chicago history written all over though. It's where the deep dish pizza rose to be an American phenomenon. Thereafter TAR6 visited the original location, the pizzeria has become a chain restaurant serving the Chicago area.

                    (I've eaten dinner at the original Gino's a few times before and the chefs there make the best cannolis in the city. :) )

                    Made a wintertime SLC finale Leg :<3

                    • (http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414140833/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/1/1e/Flight.png) X (X Int'l Airport) to Salt Lake City, Utah, USA (Salt Lake City Int'l Airport)
                    • Salt Lake City (Gilgal Sculpture Garden)
                    • Salt Lake City (DPS Ski Salon)

                    Tasks -->
                    Show content
                    In this Detour, teams chose between Slope or Sleuth. In Slope, teams must complete a ski slalom course. They had to pass between each set of flags on an expert slope in less than 45 seconds to receive their next clue. ("Slope is physically demanding, but teams with great agility could breeze ahead.) In Sleuth, teams received a map and piece of paper in their clue with navigation directions to locate one of three thermos hidden under the immense amount of snow. Teams had to figure out they had to use their skis to measure end-to-end in the exact beelines the paper says. Once teams uncover a thermos, they must open it to find their next clue. ("Sleuth" is a thought-provoking task, but teams who are quick with their wits may find themselves uncovering a lead.) In the final RB, one team member must arrange eleven cube crates with silhouettes of past items and locations on shelves requesting certain tasks (DT, RB, RI) to receive their final clue. However, although a shelf may have more than one answer, there is only one group of silhouettes that fulfill all eleven shelves.

                    Additional tasks
                    • Upon arriving at Gilgal Sculpture Garden, teams had to find a grasshopper (referring to a literal statue). Nearby would be an unbodied clue box.
                    • At DPS Ski Salon, teams had to pick up two pairs of skis, ski poles, and mittens along with their next clue
                    • After the Detour, teams had to travel by taxi to the "miracle of the gulls". They had to figure out the obscure phrase referred to the seagull statue at Temple Square emphasizing a Mormon folklore.
                    • After the Roadblock, teams had to steer a speedboat 16 miles across the Great Salt Lake to Stansbury Island where they will make their way by foot to the Finish Line.[/size]

                    Reading about airlines retiring the 747, it would be awesome to have the Final Leg at an aircraft boneyard:

                    Have them search amongst the planes or something.  It totally fits with the show, but it would be a nice little tribute to the 747 too.

                    I would love to see a task at this site or even a future L.A. starting line location. The aircraft boneyard should definitely be featured as a tribute to modern traveling.

                    I really love the first half of the race (Ireland-Latvia-Slovakia-Qatar-South Africa-Nepal). The countries are fresh, exciting, and the new countries definitely need to be visited.

                    I like the idea of an aircraft boneyard. There's one at Mojave (http://mojaveairport.com/film/advantages-capabilities/); it's some distance from LAX but not as far as the Santa Ynez drive. There's a photo of SpaceshipOne here (http://www.panoramio.com/photo/1620978): you can see the boneyard in the background.

                    Ooo! Yes, a Starting Line, definitely.  They must have a task there though, it would be a stunning place.  (Especially if they used TARAu/TARC cameras/editing or whatever it is :))

                    An cool Starting Line Task (if I do say so myself) would be for teams to find the plane that served the airline that would take them to their first destination. (ex: teams would search for a Qantas plane, they would fly to Australia).

                    Leg 2: Dublin, Ireland --> Riga, Latvia

                    Reading about airlines retiring the 747, it would be awesome to have the Final Leg at an aircraft boneyard:
                    (http://airlinecrash.info/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Victorville-CA-Boneyard.jpg)

                    Have them search amongst the planes or something.  It totally fits with the show, but it would be a nice little tribute to the 747 too.

                    A task is a must have for this location! :hoot: Maybe for a finale memory task, flight attendants would roam each plane and teams have to identify which one serves on the flag carrier airliner of each country they visited. On the flipside, if they start here, they could have teams searching for 1 of 11 flight attendants out of the maybe 50 on the planes that belongs to the flag carrier airliner of their first destination.

                    South Africa is pretty safe because Ebola is generally in West Africa.

                    But you need to consider the Ebola virus fruit bat habitat is spread across half of Africa including "South Africa". If I'm producer, I want to play it save not to visit Africa temporary so that producer & contestant might not get contact with the virus.

                    I wish that a team cannot to be saved by twice and face Speed Bump, instead a team that never been in last place who is last standing in Pit Stop will face Speed Bump. And team that was exempted from facing Speed Bump but saved would be eliminated if stay last in a task that if checked was like Pit Stop of half of double length leg, but team who come last was eliminated.

                    One of the wildest things I can think of: (This is 99.5% impossible)

                    Let's say TARUS is on the 2nd leg with ten teams, then another version of TAR is also on the 2nd leg with ten teams. Both versions visit the same location/s for the 2nd legs of both versions, and both legs are happening at the same time. So my wish is a special intersection. ;) 1 team from TARUS joins 1 team from the other TAR version.

                    The bad side of this would be if one team TARUS is way behind, it would drag the last team from the other version down. Another would probably be communication? Because they don't know them completely. Adding a yield or U-turn could be fun.

                    It's fun to imagine this, but it will only stay as an imagination. :) It'd be cool if teams from different versions of TAR were on the same flight, running out of the airport all at the same time. :hrt: Another cool thing would probably be both versions' hosts at the same pit stop location. :hrt: All this is just a wish, since it will never really happen.

                    My view of TAR 26 or 'How can WRP dodge the various social, political, and health-related issues currently facing the world?':

                    STARTING LINE: Lincoln Park, Chicago, Illinois  - not Los Angeles! (given this show's history, though, we know what this means for the Finish Line...) Lincoln Park is large and secluded enough so as not to have spoilers.
                    LEG 1: to Zaragoza, Spain (via Madrid) - we've had exactly 1 full leg in continental Spain and it sucked *shrugs* Bonus points for referencing potato Jesus.
                    LEG 2: to Ordino, Andorra - I mean there are only certain unused countries in Europe we can go to, and though I was tempted to have a Malaga / Gibraltar 1-2 punch Andorra sets up for the next leg
                    LEG 3: to Toulouse, France to Athens, Greece - RB in Toulouse at night involving rockets so as to set up for the early morning departures to Athens. Not only was the first, last, and only Greek leg of the race horrid but there's enough flights and potential for enough difficult tasks to shuffle the order via actual skills.
                    LEG 4: to Mumbai, India - given that both Russia and the Middle East are Not Great Travel Destinations right now, I'm left having to make a somewhat large leap somewhere in Asia, thus I chose the place with the greatest chance of someone getting assaulted on a train  :hearts:
                    LEG 5: to Luang Prabang, Laos - what better way to counter the hustle and bustle of Mumbai then a country that's inherently slow paced? I certainly don't know.
                    LEG 6: to Uluru, Australia (via Alice Springs) - yup, that's a giant rock.
                    LEG 7: to Perth, Australia - again, the last time we visited Perth it sucked and even though it seems like it I'm not *just* trying to trash TAR 9  :snicker:
                    LEG 8: to Cape Town, South Africa - how is it we haven't been here in 10 YEARS?
                    LEG 9: to Thaba Bosiu, Lesotho - I feel like everyone, self included, has slotted Lesotho in a fantasy route at least once. I think it's the hat dance, myself.
                    LEG 10: to Buenos Aires, Argentina (via various cities in Buenos Aires Province) - again, the legs here haven't been the best, but I think that's largely because it's mostly been used as a transit hub rather than a destination in it's own right)
                    LEG 11: to Ollantaytambo, Peru (via Cusco and Maachu Pichu) - still not over TAR 7 going to Cusco then taking random trucks and then...not going to Maachu Pichu.
                    LEG 12: to Chicago, Illinois (like I said, history repeats itself <3 granted, slightly better than JUST deep dish pizza at Gino's)
                    FINISH LINE: Salvage One rooftop terrace, Chicago, Illinois

                    As a Chicago native, Promontory Park in Southside Chicago would make the perfect Finish Line. Quite discreet and a beautiful area for a panorama view of trees and buildings. :luvya:

                    I would love a task where teams have to search through fortune cookies for their next clue! And to prevent a waste of food, they'll have to eat every cookie they go through. Or, to make it harder, find a fortune with the correct Chinese symbols. Has this been done before?

                    I want Phil to start saying "MAY be eliminated" in the first leg.

                    Even without spoilers, it was so obvious that Leg 1 of TAR 18 & 19 were non-elimination points.

                    Indian penultimate leg will be awesome tbh. The final 4 fight against each other at the streets of India for the final 3 spot and added double uturn to the mix, it will be an episode that full of drama which I will like tbh.

                    Oddly enough there are two nonstop flights from Delhi to New York (one to JFK, one to Newark):

                    United 83
                    DEL - EWR
                    2335 - 0440 (+1)

                    Air India 101
                    DEL - JFK
                    0135 - 0635

                    which arrive early enough in the day to have the whole day's worth for filming (or, alternatively, early enough to connect to somewhere else for the finish line - likely on the East Coast). I get why they wouldn't do it - a lot hinges upon teams making it on one of these flights and there would likely need to be an extended Pit Stop to get production out ahead of time - but it fits what WRP has done in years past and isn't the worst thing they've done (looking@u unaired 12 hour Pit Stop in Heathrow in the TAR 15 finale)

                    eta: Delhi to New York is about the same distance as Xi'an to Chicago (ignoring the Honolulu stop which would add more miles) as well as the final flight of TAR 25.

                    Father | Son - mid 40's & late 20's - (Afro-American & Asian) Married aerospace engineer dad with an adopted son from the Philippines; bond together really well as a family
                    Tennis Buddies - late 20's - (Brazilian & Caucasian) Despite being tennis amateurs, they are overconfident fellows who just don't give a cent about other people's emotions; no problem slowing or manipulating another team down

                    F/F teams:
                    Grandmothers - mid 60's & early 70's - (Afro-American & Caucasian) Lovably comical grandma duo who are fans of TAR, vying for an adventure around the great big world
                    "Laundry Moms" - early 40's - (Caucasian) A warmhearted pair of traditional Minnesota stay-at-home moms

                    I wouldn't like that cast tbh because there are too many Dating teams and not enough F/F teams IMO.

                    Dating - 30-yrs old - (Caucasian & Hispanic) Typical urban "love story" dating team, but both team members have their own quirks and style of humor, respectful and classy
                    Dating - late 20's - (Caucasian) A guy who is the definition of a frat dirtbag who wants to reform his attitude with a gal who wants him to change for the better and is a TAR super fan

                    Married - mid 40's - (Caucasian) Happily married for 10 years and aren't afraid to say they are overweight and love to dance intricately, plan to work together on the race to shed pounds and win the money to pay off college loans they still sadly have

                    It will all depend on how "editing" presents it though. I didn't like the TAR13 cast at first, but editing proved me wrong along with the unique route. :)

                    I like the idea on laundry moms. :)

                    I have a similar idea for the Dating Motorcyclists. I imagined both to be at their late 30's and divorced. I also imagine them to be strong.

                    I miss old team members (old as in 60's or 70's), especially grandparent/grandchild teams. I can imagine a team of grandma and granddaughter teachers, in which grandma is dean while granddaughter is a preschool teacher.

                    A team of babysitters would be interesting as well. :lol: Imagine them being fun and funny, and fat.

                    If we had RFF racers it'd end up with us constantly telling the producers how they're doing things wrong!

                    Phil: This is the 300th leg of The Amazing Race and we are cele-
                    GB: In what way, shape or form was that the 300th leg?
                    Peach: Where are these numbers coming from??

                    That would be interesting since I think we've been used to the same US > South America or Europe > South America routes, but I think Philippines > South America would be hard since it'd be a very long trip, probably connecting through either Australia, Japan or even the US I think.

                    San Francisco finale Leg! :wohoo:

                    • (http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414140833/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/1/1e/Flight.png) Paris (Paris-Orly Airport) to Millbrae, California, USA (San Francisco Int'l Airport)
                    • San Francisco (Christmas Tree Point)
                    • San Francisco (Cable Car Museum)
                    • (http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414141915/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/c/cd/Detour.png) San Francisco (Star Glass Co. & Russian Hill District or Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory)
                    • San Francisco (Cupid's Span)
                    • San Francisco (Fort Mason, Great Meadow) (http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414142122/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/1/1b/Roadblock.png)
                    • San Francisco (Gashouse Cove - East Harbor)
                    • (http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414141457/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/9/9d/Water.png) San Francisco (Alcatraz Island) (http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130414142858/rachellevegas-the-amazing-race/images/b/be/PitStop.png)

                    DETOUR: Home or Heritage | In Home, teams traveled by taxi to Star Glass Co. where they had to pick up two window panes and window repair supplies. Using only a photo of a San Francisco-style house as reference, teams must find the building on the photo, travel there on foot, and replace the two defective windows properly to receive their next clue. In Heritage, teams traveled by foot into one of the United States's oldest Chinatown districts. Teams had to find the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory, located on an obscure street (Ross Alley), where they must package four boxes of 60 fortune cookies in order to receive their next clue.
                    ROADBLOCK: "Who can slide things into perspective? | One team member had to rearrange a slider puzzle with pieces carved into the silhouette of eleven items encountered along the race. The racer has to match the silhouette with the numbered squate, corresponding with its Leg number, engraved under the slide-able pieces. Once the racer has all their piece in the correct spaces, they will receive their final clue.

                    Additional tasks:
                    • Riddles directing teams to Christmas Tree Point, the Cable Car Museum, and Cupid's Span.
                    • After the Roadblock, teams had to travel by foot to East Harbor where they had to select a marked boat and steer themselves across the San Francisco Bay to the Finish Line, Alcatraz Island.

                    Thinking about San Francisco as a Starting Line.  It's a very rainy, gloomy day today in the Bay Area.  It got me thinking all Starting Lines have had good weather, right? At least for TARUS.
                    It started raining at TARPH1's Starting Line just as host Derek Ramsay said "GO!" It was very cinematic. Hehe.

                    I'd love to see it rain and cold at a Starting Line WITH a Starting Line task!  That would be very exciting.

                    I agree with 1 or 2. Too many is overkill and makes legs too predictable IMO. The fast forward takers generally win the leg and knowing the winner of 6 legs would be annoying lol. jmo

                    They need to visit more of the European Islands for example Corsica and Sicily have been visited what about Sardinia I went there and it was absolutely beautiful also Ibiza and they forgot all about Crete Rhodes and all the Greek Islands. Also The Canary Islands I love Tenerife ( if they go there must be a task at Siam Park ) and the rest of the canaries but gr8 job S25 for The Shetlands Sicily and even MALTA!!!  :hearts:

                    They should have a task in New York where teams have to go out in a crowd of 1,000 locals wearing a Red Sox hat. Once the booing of the crowd reaches 110 decibels, they can run to their clue 500 ft behind them. However, the angry people in the crowd will also be running toward the clue with the intent of ripping it apart. Once teams finally get their clue, they can proceed on.

                    The Fast Forward was great when there was one on every leg and there was so much strategy that went into deciding whether to take it or not. It's just a shame that this was way too expensive.

                    Another version of the Memory task that I want to appear on the show:

                    If they ever have a finale in LA again, maybe they could have the Memory task in Hollywood and be as follows:

                    The team must recreate each pit stop of each leg of the race. Starting with Leg 1 going to Leg 11, one team member must dress up as Phil while the other dresses up as the pit stop greeter. They would also have to arrange the set to match the surroundings of their pit stop (for example: if the ground was grassy, asphalt, etc; if it was night or day).

                    The task location would be a blank set for each team, with only a pit stop mat in the center. They would have all the costumes on one end and all props piled up on another. Maybe to mess with the teams, on one pit stop, Phil would stand on the right of the greeter instead of the left like he usually does.

                    A big wish: No crossover contestant from another reality show. It takes away a chance for more interesting people to get a spot as a cast. Less "dating" teams too.

                    I also took a liberty to make a mock up route like everyone did. I really wanted the show to feature exotic cities/towns and places with huge contrast from each other. For example, from the dense jungle of Africa to the frigid cold Arctic.

                    Starting Line: Oahu Island, Hawaii
                    Oahu is nicknamed as the Gathering Place and this will be the first place the teams will gather to start the race.

                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia
                    Leg 2: Perth, Australia
                    Leg 3: Harbin, China
                    Leg 4: Jilin, China
                    Leg 5: Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan
                    Leg 6: Samarkand, Uzbekistan with an emphasis on the Silk Road
                    Leg 7: Kampala, Uganda with heavy emphasis on the Lake Victoria shoreline and community
                    Leg 8: Eastern Uganda (Wildlife centered)
                    Leg 9: Elsinore, Denmark - Elsinore is the setting for Shakespeare's Hamlet. It has gorgeous architecture and has a very medieval or classical feel in it.
                    Leg 10: Nuuk, Greenland - Yes, Greenland.
                    Leg 11: Quebec City, Canada

                    FINAL LEG: A night finale leg in CHICAGO, IL

                    A random wish for a leg: If TAR productions could team up with Nintendo, I would love to see a Nintendo themed leg in either Tokyo or Kyoto. What's interesting in doing it in Kyoto is the juxtaposition of the traditional Japanese city with the modern and eccentric Nintendo 8-bit themed tasks. Instead of a boring bland karting like they did this season in Italy, how about a Mario Kart themed. Also for the whole Nintendo themed leg, all racers will be given a Nintendo costume of either Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Toad.

                    Well, if you want something kinda close to that, I've written a fanfic that crosses over Mario and The Amazing Race. 5 seasons of it, in fact :P

                    That was random, but it'd be really nice. :hearts: And yes, close to that is writing fanfiction. :lol: Btw GB, have I read any of your fanfictions? :lol: I wanna read those types of fanfics.

                    Wishlist:
                    Winter leg in South Hemisphere country (Eg. South Africa and New Zealand).
                    Night leg in major big city (Eg. Seoul, London, Auckland, Johannesburg, Taipei, Sao Paulo, Doha, Kuwait City etc.)

                    For twists, these are what I think might work:
                    -Leg 1 winner would win an express pass and an extra u-turn power.
                    -Leg 11 could still have 5 teams with that leg being a double elimination leg.
                    -Final leg can still have 4 teams, but one will be eliminated somewhere within that leg.
                    -The revival of the intersection during the final 10 or final 4 teams.
                    -The intersection-elimination twist wherein the total number of teams left in that leg is an odd number, the team that wouldn't be able to join forces with another team will be eliminated right away at the intersection. (unfair elimination though)
                    -The reincarnation of the intersection wherein the background of the intersection is red instead of yellow; however, the rules would be exactly the same as the double battle in TAR Israel 2 and the intersection at TAR Latin America 2.
                    -The return of the yield with some added twists. :hearts:
                    -The return of the hazard, this time the team who would receive the hazard will have to do it in every leg (except the final leg or by skipping it by means of a fast forward) until they win a leg or until they get eliminated. (brutal I guess)
                    -A special w-turn wherein the team who received the 1st u-turn can not use the 2nd one until they finish the other side of the detour.
                    -More fast forwards! About 3 to 6 fast forwards per race.
                    -2 TBC/"keep racing" pit stops in a row. (But this would probably exhaust the cast and the crew)
                    -More 1st leg NELs.
                    -A NEL penalty wherein the last team to arrive must complete a speedbump and must arrive 1st the following leg. If the team fails to arrive 1st, that team will receive a 30-min penalty. (For short: NEL penalty = speedbump + MFE) (may be brutal too)

                    Philimination had a great idea in the TAR26 Bitch, Moan and Squeal Thread (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,30657.msg1066622.html#msg1066622).

                    A Blood vs Water type of twist would be much more interesting and less a deviation of the TAR format.

                    How about making it seem like they're doing another Family Edition, asking for teams of 4 to apply.  But then at the Starting Line, Phil drops the bomb that the teams will be split up and they must decide which 2 will Race with each other.  Essentially, each family of 4 will be split and must race as separate 2-person teams.  So 6 families split into 12 teams.

                    But, that could be interesting IF the Yield/U-Turn appears in every leg is back. :cmaslol Maybe we'll see some Yield/U-Turn decisions made because of their fellow family was U-Turned/Yielded. I foresee some revenge U-Turn/Yield. :cmas32:

                    Would you be annoyed if answer is shared with one another every leg? That would be pointless.. and the reason why the BvW twist won't work on TAR.

                    Only unless they get 12 teams of 2, then swop every team with a different partner amongst the 12.

                    That would just render the whole TAR concept pointless.

                    But they'd only be working with their family members and not other teams necessarily.
                    We could get U-Turn drama. Like Family 1-A U-turning Family 2-A who then U-Turns Family 1-B lol
                    Or the same family fighting for last place lol

                    TAR Golden edition sounds like a viable concept but I'm afraid the competitive edge may be lessened and viewers may not tune in.

                    I just want them to do regular TAR. Like TAR25.

                    I think TAR 14 was already done that. The entire final 7 teams are all family and friends team since all the couple team are eliminated back to back. I found that the final 7 teams in that season have unique and more variety of team dynamics compare to other earlier season that time. (TAR 1-13). So I think it shouldn't have cause much problem on this kind of cast.

                    I never thought of that but that's an awesome idea, what about a roadblock where teams have to drive jeepneys around Manila  :cmas52

                    This task is exactly same as TAR 10 Leg 5 Roadblock in Chennai, India. The only difference is TAR 10 use an old car while TARAus2 use new car.

                    Since I aggressively cannot sleep at present, here's a route:

                    START: Villa Vizcaya, Miami, Florida (true story - for this route to work I needed a Miami start so I just found the first possible reasonably private place for a start line. The European inspired gardens are perfect since that's the closest this race is getting to Europe *snerk*)
                    Leg 1: Jau National Park, Brazil (how is it we haven't had an Amazon leg yet? Lots of flora, orienteering, the occasional animal or two and ONLY two for...reasons, a lesson on conversation, what more would you want?)
                    Leg 2: Manaus, Brazil (in the 25 seasons of The Amazing Race, we've had exactly *7* legs in Brazil, with 5 full legs and 2 half legs taking place in major cities and yet ALL OF THEM WERE BLAH)
                    Leg 3: Cape Town, South Africa (apologies for the TAR 2 teas but it's seriously been 18 seasons since visiting South Africa despite how safe and culturally rich it is, mainly so we could have horrid legs in Switzerland. Tasks involving sailing, wine, and a township of some sort)
                    Leg 4: Livingstone, Zambia via Harare, Zimbabwe and Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe (my idea is a Detour involving social consciousness in Harare, then charter flights to a ~mystery destination~ revealed to be Victoria Falls where there is absolutely references to 'smoke that thunders', a trip to the casino because there needs to be some form of stratification post-flights and an ostrich egg-eating RB)
                    Leg 5: Petra National Park, Jordan (if I say it enough times maybe WRP will go there  :( bonus - camels)
                    Leg 6: Alexandria, Egypt (so there are definitely parts of Egypt that are Not Safe but there are substantially less grumblings about unrest in Alexandria which is great since there's a giant library that's just begging to be searched there)
                    Leg 7: Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan (I may or may not have been on Sporcle recently but STILL Central Asia is severely lacking in legs. bonus - falcons maybe? i think so)
                    Leg 8: Hubei Province, China (more accurately, a leg in Wuhei and a pitstop at the Three Gorges Dam)
                    Leg 9: Chengdu, China (if I say it enough times maybe WRP will go there  :( bonus - pandas and hot pot)
                    Leg 10: Melbourne, Australia (nighttime leg! featuring rugby players, alcohol and hopefully hipster wine producer / morose former Survivor contestant Sierra Reed as a greeter  :luvya:
                    Leg 11: Savaii island, Samoa (I didn't initially dream this up to be 'Survivor's greatest hits' but references to Robert Louis Stevenson, actual racing on one of the beaches used in Survivor 19/20 and a Pit Stop at the blowholes used as a reward on 20 kind of all fell into place. bonus - turtles)
                    Leg 12: Vikingsholm, Lake Tahoe, California (you might be wondering 'what could you do on a lake in the middle of nowhere in winter?' well...)

                    Show content
                    Leg 12 (Samoa → United States of America)
                    • Apia (Faleolo Airport) to Reno, Nevada, USA (Reno-Tahoe International Airport)
                    • South Lake Tahoe, California (Heavenly Ski Resort) (DETOUR – Linear or Parabolic)
                    • Incline Village, Nevada (Diamond Peak Ski Resort – Base Lodge)
                    • Olympic Valley, California (Squaw Valley Adventure Center)
                    • Olympic Valley (Squaw Valley Resort) (ROADBLOCK – Who can stay on course?)
                    • Truckee (Tahoe Donner Cross Country Ski Area)
                    • Tahoma (Vikingsholm) (FINISH LINE)

                    In this leg's Detour, teams chose between Linear and Parabolic. In Linear, teams traveled to the top of one of the ski slopes and, after learning the basics, skied downhill, aiming to complete the course within 1 minute of each other to receive their next clue. In Parabolic, teams traveled to a marked half pipe and, after learning the basics of snowboarding, tried to balance on a series of 6 spots (3 spots each) of the half pipe to receive their next clue. In the Roadblock of this leg, one team member, using the same method of transport they used in the Detour, to navigate a slalom course following a path of flags in the order that they visited the corresponding countries. If they were successful, they would receive their next clue however if not, they would have to wait for any queued racers to attempt the task before trying again.

                    Additional Tasks
                    • At Diamond Peak's lodge, teams had to work as baristas for the lodge, taking and filling drink orders for the waiting guests. Once 50 people approved of their creations the barista supervisor would give them their next clue.
                    • After completing the task at the lodge, teams were instructed to find the site of the 1960 Winter Olympics, which they had to figure out was the Squaw Valley Resort
                    • At the Adventure Center, teams took part in a tandem indoor rock climb, with team members connected with a paper strip roughly 5 feet in length. Each team member would have to climb to the top to get half of their next clue however if they broke the paper strip, they would have to go back down to get a new one before starting again.
                    [li]At Tahoe Donner, teams received a (product placed) smartphone, taking photos of 8 animals (cutouts, like the 'Brains' Detour in 22) they encountered during the race in some capacity in order (frog, crocodile, ostrich via egg, camel, falcon, panda, lamb via hot pot, and turtle). If correct they would receive their final clue.
                    [/li][/list]

                    ...basically we've never had a full "wintry" final leg in the post-TAR 12 era as opposed to two overtly tropical legs (14, 20) and one wilderness leg that occurred in summer (23). A final leg Detour, two tasks that test teamwork and multiple memory tasks  :colors. The flag task is fairly easy with respect to memorization - one can assume teams will be given flags throughout the season - since the trust test will be of coordination, plus it hides the actively daunting memory task with the animals.


                    This incidentally was not my planned entry for that final challenge for that DC that I played in that one time or anything buuuuuut if it was I'd feel good about placing third <3

                    There are plenty of flights from Manaus to Sao Paulo, where teams can take a daily Sao Paulo - Johannesburg flight (also seen in TAR 7 and 11) and then connect to one of many flights from Johannesburg to Cape Town.

                    Or if it's on the day where the Sao Paulo - Johannesburg flight doesn't operate then...I guess have a special two hour episode with the first hour being people trying to get out of Brazil <3

                    <333 but replace Perth and Darwin to Melbourne and Hobart. Then this route will become one of the best TAR Asia Route IMO.

                    I started reading the legs and while I'm grumbling at 2/3rds of a leg from a certain season of TAR being used, I saw the words "NEL envelope" and I was like YAAAAAAAAAASSSSSS  :hearts: :hearts: :hearts:

                    It doesn't go into too much detail but from what I imagine, Derek would have three envelopes and force the spared team to pick one - as I picture it one would have a Speed Bump for them to compete in the following leg (which would be converted into an ARI if they don't pick it), one has them Marked for Elimination, and one has no penalty yay!

                    Is it Sri Lanka from the season-that-must-not-be-named? lol

                    I did the Non-Elimination envelopes in "season 1 (http://dryedmangoez.com/2014/07/28/the-amazing-race-philippines-dryedmangoez-edition-leg-1-ilocos-norte/)" (lol) and my original choices were:
                    -Automatic U-Turn
                    -Automatic Yield
                    -Automatic 30 minute penalty at the next Pit Stop
                    -Marked for Elimination
                    -Speed Bump

                    The no penalty choice would be very interesting though! Never thought of that!

                    Revisit South Africa(!!!), Mexico, Hungary, Greece and Finland.
                    Russia and New Zealand for first leg!

                    *3MF + 4FF + 4MM cast please!  :luvya: Or 3MF + 5FF + 3MM, but I know that 5FF teams would be too much for CBS, so this is unreal.

                    *Or at least another season with 4FF teams, but with no so "weak" MM teams.

                    *Older 40+ FF team!!!!! Last older FF teams were in TAR16!!! I do not understand why only yong FF teams are cast now, especially when CBS have no problem with older MM teams - Ron&Tony, Tony&Bill, Art&JJ, Mark&Bopper, Gary&Will, Brent&Josh, James&Abba, Rowan&Shane, Micheal&Scott, Jon & Harley. That is 10 older MM teams in last 8 regular seasons, and no older FF team!!!

                    *Minimum mactors, celebrities and already famous people in cast!!! I know that TAR25 cast is loved by fans, but I do not like it! So many celebrities... Bethany was well known by public, wrestlers were famous and have a lot of fans, Keithney were known from Survivor, Misti is beauty queen, Isabele is host/model/actor, Lisa have rich and famous husband. Te Jay and cyclicts were clearly mactors. (drag queen and YouTube promo)  Only "regular" people in cast were Amaya, Shenici and firefighters.
                    TAR 26 format did not allow cast so many celebrities, but we have NKOTB and olympians there.

                    So I know somewhere here I had race routes inspired by the British and Portuguese empires; accordingly, here's the third season of such a thing:

                    Leg 1: St. Louis, Missouri to Wuhai, China
                    Leg 2: to Thanh Hoa, Vietnam
                    Leg 3: to Kratie, Cambodia (via Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and Phnom Penh, Cambodia)
                    Leg 4: to Chennai, India
                    Leg 5: to Antananarivo, Madagascar
                    Leg 6: to Toliara, Madagascar
                    Leg 7: to Douala, Cameroon
                    Leg 8: to Wonga-Wongue Presidential Reserve, Gabon
                    Leg 9: to Andorra la Vella, Andorra (via Toulouse, France)
                    Leg 10: to Fontainebleau, France (via Paris)
                    Leg 11: to Montreal, Canada
                    Leg 12: to New Orleans, Louisiana

                    Sadly the Spanish empire isn't really diverse enough for a full season  :(

                    Another Route Wishlist with modification: :hrt:

                    Best visit period: Early June - Late June


                    Start Line: Los Angeles, CA (Since WRP was being cheap nowadays.)
                    Leg 1: Seoul, South Korea (Korean Wave culture leg such as K Pop and Drama) :hearts: 
                    Leg 2: Kathmandu, Nepal (Interesting Indian-ish leg with Nepali culture)
                    Leg 3: Lumbini, Nepal (Buddhism culture tribute leg in Buddhism cities) :hrt: 
                    Leg 4: Johannesburg/Pretoria, South Africa (Full leg focus in African urban cities and culture)
                    Leg 5: Melbourne, Australia (A Night leg infused with Melbourne culture such as Melbourne shuffle dance)
                    Leg 6: Alice Springs/Uluru, Australia (A fantastic Australian outback leg is overdue)
                    Leg 7: Dunedin/Invercargill/Mount Cook, New Zealand (A winter + snow leg in New Zealand is long overdue)
                    Leg 8: Sao Paulo, Brazil (An urban South America leg)

                    Leg 9: Manaus, Brazil (First ever Amazon leg in TAR US please)

                    Leg 12: Seattle, WA (First North West finish since TAR13 in Portland, OR)

                    A TAR 7 style of route but this time without crossing the Atlantic Ocean generally. :luvya:

                    I think the only problem with that route actually being picked up is that flying over the Pacific Ocean is pretty expensive, so doing it twice would probably be out of the question. Other than that, is very good!

                    Leg 12 - Phoenix, Arizona ("didn't some old woman complain about wanting to go here a while ago? omg plus it's close enough to LA that we can be home in time for dinner yaaaaas")

                    Yeah. This is maybe a reason why we never see the a TAR7 style route again.


                    In that case I think this is how the route will it come from:


                    Best visit period: Early June - Late June
                    Start Line: Los Angeles, CA (Since WRP was being cheap nowadays.)

                    Leg 10: Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (Hispanic Caribbean leg in TAR US please)
                    Leg 11: Montreal/Toronto/Vancouver, Canada (Long overdue full Canadian leg in TAR US)
                    Leg 12: Boston/Detroit/Seattle (Self driving across the border to the final destination city and finish line) :hearts:  (Special thanks to Zack. for remember me a Canadian border leg with a US border leg in following leg)


                    P/S: The route seem like it still expensive due to the route have a South Korea leg (South Korea leg expenses = Japan leg expenses), 3 Aus/NZ legs, a South Africa legs (it's expensive to have a leg actually), a transatlantic flights to South America, a leg in Sao Paulo, and a leg in Canada. :lol:

                    A race start in BB house was so hilarious.  :funny: Brenchel and Jordeff appearance on stating line please. :lol:

                    I do agree India is cheap, but don't forget Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Maldives are cheap as well. :lol:
                    So, try not to make the India is overused. The Andaman Island leg can be replaced by going to Maldives while Assam province can be replaced by going to Nepal, and the Mumbai leg can be replaced by going to Chittagong, Bangladesh.

                    Technically it is still 3 legit "Indian" legs but India was not overused. :lol:

                    The route started out as a joke making fun of how the budget has impacted routes (triple India <3) but turned kinda serious lol.

                    Actual cheapish routing:

                    Leg 1 - Los Angeles, California to Mexico City, Mexico
                    Leg 2 - Teotihuacan, Mexico (or, more accurately, two legs around Mexico City lol)
                    Leg 3 - Waterloo, Belgium (yes, that one)
                    Leg 4 - Lake Balaton, Hungary
                    Leg 5 - Trieste, Italy
                    Leg 6 - Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
                    Leg 7 - Axum, Ethiopia
                    Leg 8 - Nevsehir, Turkey (Cappadocia leg whee!)
                    Leg 9 - Sylhet, Bangladesh
                    Leg 10 - Phu Quoc Island, Vietnam
                    Leg 11 - Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
                    Leg 12 - Los Angeles, California (when was the last time we made a full lap around the world?)

                    I like most everything the way it is but I would like them to stop giving second chances to losers just because for ratings they want to keep them on another week.  Sometimes they make it for another couple weeks but they are usually gone soon after they came in last once and were given a second chance.  "Fortunately, this not an elimination round."  Yeah, right!!!

                    Non-Elimination legs are decided in advance before the cast is even finalized. Producers are bound not to change them at any point, hence the title of pre-determined non-elimination legs. Sometimes this inability to change them causes major problems for the producers, but they stick with it (Nick & Vicki, James & Abba)

                    Leg 3 - Mumbai, India (see above, also I feel like 3 legs in India can be done well since there are really three distinct areas being explored as opposed to a massage parlor and  swimming pool in Beijing - no T, no shade)
                    Leg 4 - Triglav National Park, Slovenia via Austria (so instead of having a crappy mountain leg in the same Swiss mountain range, how about a trip back to the Julian Alps?)
                    Leg 5 - Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina ("but I mean two legs in former Yugoslavia is cost effective right?")
                    Leg 6 - Porto, Portugal ("right like Portugal is one of the cheapest countries in Europe that has decent infrastructure so ya")
                    Leg 7 - Luanda, Angola ("Africa isn't expensive plus there are like, direct flights and everything so that a team isn't completely stranded yay")
                    Leg 8 - Port Elizabeth, South Africa ("I mean like four other races have been here, it'll be just like Trendy Connections :) ")
                    Leg 9 - Katse, Lesotho ("It's like RIGHT THERE JEEZ")
                    Leg 10 - Iguazu Falls, Brazil ("hmm...we've had a leg here right? And there was a Brazilian edition there as well? AND the Latin one? The leg just wrote itself!")
                    Leg 11 - Sao Paulo, Brazil ("the Internet says there was a boring leg here, we can actually afford to do better here")
                    Leg 12 - Phoenix, Arizona ("didn't some old woman complain about wanting to go here a while ago? omg plus it's close enough to LA that we can be home in time for dinner yaaaaas")

                    Also Lord help us if the race *does* start in the BB house  (:;)

                    A race start in BB house was so hilarious.  :funny: Brenchel and Jordeff appearance on stating line please. :lol:

                    I do agree India is cheap, but don't forget Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Maldives are cheap as well. :lol:
                    So, try not to make the India is overused. The Andaman Island leg can be replaced by going to Maldives while Assam province can be replaced by going to Nepal, and the Mumbai leg can be replaced by going to Chittagong, Bangladesh.

                    Technically it is still 3 legit "Indian" legs but India was not overused. :lol:

                    Also how the heck do you fly commercially to the Andamans?

                    This might sound completely stupid but...

                    I have the idea of a twist which involves clue boxes with different clues.

                    I.e. when teams find a clue box, most of the route info's are the correct clue but one is wrong and will send the team in the wrong direction (providing they're not with an alliance etc.).
                    Once they get to the 'wrong' destination they find another clue box with the right destination inside.

                    Ok here's my wishlist route that has a chance of 0.001% chance of ever happening on the race, and if ever this happens, they should rename the season to:

                    The Amazing Race: The Most Dangerous Route Ever

                    Leg 1: Detroit, Michigan to Cali ,Colombia
                    Leg 2: Cali, Colombia to Medelin, Colombia
                    Leg 3: Medelin Colombia to Recife, Brazil
                    Leg 4: Recife, Brazil to Manaus, Brazil
                    Leg 5: Manaus, Brazil to Nzérékoré, Guinea
                    Leg 6: Nzérékoré, Guinea to Bamako, Mali
                    Leg 7: Bamako, Mali to Baga, Nigeria
                    Leg 8: Baga, Nigeria to Marseille, France
                    Leg 9: Marseille, France to Weimar, Germany
                    Leg 10: Weimar, Germany to Baghdad, Iraq
                    Leg 11: Baghdad, Iraq to Damascus, Syria
                    Leg 12: Damacus, Syria to Pyongyang, North Korea
                    Leg 13: Pyongyang, North Korea to San Francisco, California (Finish Line: Alcatraz Island)

                    Before teams get on this season, they should sign a waiver promising not to sue if ever something happens to them.

                    I can imagine Phil saying "You will be getting a chance of what's it's like to experience life threatening situation"

                    And this too:
                    "And the team that makes it to the end, alive of course, will get a chance to win one million dollars."

                    I have a lot more in mind for this season, but for now I will leave it as it is :)

                    I know there's a country in South America coming up this season, but they surely need to travel there more and visit new countries or Uruguay/Bolivia/Ecuador which haven't been visited in a long time! :wohoo:

                    Also, go back to Mexico/Canada/Costa Rica ASAP! :colors

                    I wanna create old classic route while there are 12 teams racing with 13 legs.  :) But this route is probably impossible in many ways lol.

                    Leg 1 : Los Angeles, CA --> Adelaide, Australia (Urban legs in different city of Australia)
                    Leg 2 : Adelaide, Australia --> Rabaul, Papau New Guinea (To add some tropical to the route)
                    Leg 3 : Rabaul, Papau New Guinea --> Okinawa, Japan (Different destination for Japan)
                    Leg 4 : Okinawa, Japan --> Busan, South Korea (Long time no see South Korea!)
                    Leg 5 : Busan, South Korea --> Vladivostok, Russia (Ferry via Donghae would be interesting)
                    Leg 6 : Vladivostok, Russia --> Helsinki, Finland & Tallinn, Estonia (Long time no see for both countries! And so Finland can finally own their Pit Stop)
                    Leg 7 : Helsinki, Finland & Tallinn, Estonia --> Tozeur, Tunisia (African sahara leg)
                    Leg 8 : Tozeur, Tunisia --> Tunis, Tunisia (Ancient city leg)
                    Leg 9 : Tunis, Tunisia --> Luxembourg City, Luxembourg (I really do wish they would make a leg here someday :()
                    Leg 10 : Luxembourg City, Luxembourg --> Brussels, Belgium (TBC, driving from Luxembourg to Belgium)
                    Leg 11 : Brussels, Belgium --> Praia, Cape Verde (Cold --> Hot shock for teams)
                    Leg 12 : Praia, Cape Verde --> Torshavn, Faroe Islands (Then Hot --> Cool another shock again :funny:)
                    Leg 13 : Torshavn, Faroe Islands --> Philadelphia, Pensylvania

                    13 legs, 13 countries, 5 continents. I really wish I could find some space to add South America though.  :(

                    Like the first post on this topic, I would create a wishlist based on legs and destinations.

                    If the race were 12 legs, I'd have a race like this:

                    Leg 1 : Los Angeles, CA --> Caracas, Venezuela (New city to start the season)
                    Leg 2 : Caracas, Venezuela --> Angel Falls, Venezuela (To add some tropical to the route)
                    Leg 3 : Angel Falls, Venezuela --> Nadi, Fiji (to the south pacific)
                    Leg 4 : Nadi, Fiji --> Coromandel, New Zealand (fly to Auckland, passing through Hamilton and Paeroa)
                    Leg 5 : New Zealand --> Mount Fuji, Japan (Via Tokyo City, and into the countryside)
                    Leg 6 : Mount Fuji Japan --> Katmandu, Nepal (into Katmandu, and then into the countryside)
                    Leg 7 : Langtang National Park, Nepal --> Harare, Zimbabwe (first time in TAR, and a nice change)
                    Leg 8 : Harare, Zimbabwe --> Charara Safari Area, Zimbabwe (scenic, exotic and nice)
                    Leg 9 : Charara Safari Area, Zimbabwe --> Triglav, Slovenia   (beautiful, luxurious and never seen before)
                    Leg 10 : Triglav, Slovenia -->Amalfi Coast, Italy (a beautiful and exotic paradise also known as Capri - Costa Di Amalfi)
                    Leg 11 : Amalfi Coast, Italy --> Toulouse, France  (then onto the Pyrenees national park at the south of France)
                    Leg 12 : Pyrenees, France --> Vancouver, Canada --> San Francisco, CA [Finish] (visiting Capilano Suspension Bridge, Stanley Park and VC island)

                    I was considering adding Slovenia or Montenegro to the list but I didn't want to exclude Italy or Greece

                    I'd love to see an older brother/sister team.  We've had the older Brother team E.g Ken & Gerard, and the older Sister team E.g Lisa & Joni, but never an older brother/sister team..... That I can remember anyway?  ???
                    We've had loads of young brother/sister teams, but I think the dynamics, and strategy for an older one would be very different.  :trampb:

                    I wish for something called a " Joint Effort Detour "

                    Maybe for one season detours would be different instead of teams choosing which detour to do, they would have to both do a diffrent side of the detour. Eg: Track or Pack - Aly does track / Steve does pack and if your Uturned you'd both have to do the challenge you didn't do.

                    For my 1000th post!!! :hearts: :hearts: :hearts: I just wanna say that I wish these awesome legs will keep coming, even until future seasons. :hearts: :hearts: :hearts:

                    I enjoyed TAR25 and TAR26, and I really hope TAR keeps getting a good cast and a good route per season. I hope it will not be as bad as TAR24. Also, even though I like TAR26 so much, I do hope that the couples theme won't be repeated anymore.

                    I'm hoping for more years of awesome and amazing TAR!!! :wohoo: :cheer: :trampb: :luvya: :hearts: :hoot: :conf: :<3 :) :hrt: :hugs: :lol: :ihrtu :ty3: :tu

                    I also wish for more seasons to come no matter the circumstances. Perhaps 50-yrs+ teams will make a return next season. Another Peggy & Claire or Bill & Cathi for the newer audience will show that elders are able to run with the younger bunch and rock at it!

                    I wish for something called a " Joint Effort Detour "

                    Maybe for one season detours would be different instead of teams choosing which detour to do, they would have to both do a diffrent side of the detour. Eg: Track or Pack - Aly does track / Steve does pack and if your Uturned you'd both have to do the challenge you didn't do.

                    +1.

                    Yeah RachelLeVega, we want more TAR! <3 For a lot of years. hahah

                    A quick general route I'd love to see, which could make for a great 6 Continent Race.

                    Leg 1 - South America
                    Leg 2 & 3 - Asia
                    Leg 4 - Africa
                    Leg 5 & 6 - Oceania
                    Leg 7, 8, 9 - Europe
                    Leg 10 - South America (Again)
                    Leg 11 - New North American Country we haven't seen yet.

                    The only problem I see with this route though would be the awkwardness of having teams fly from Asia to Africa, just to backtrack to Oceania.  :(  But it would be great too see Oceania placed mid-race, rather then at the start or end, which is where we usually always see it.

                    That's gonna be terrific and crazy route! Team will probably shocked from the long flight jump too. But as I do a little experiment in Google Map, it's pretty likely it's gonna travel around 60,000 miles++ which I think the budget nowadays cannot afford it. (AKA, double leg everywhere)  :funny: :funny:

                    I also agree the Oceania during mid-race would be awesome, maybe they still can handle it if the route go something like this. South America (1,2) -> Europe (3,4) -> Africa (5,6) -> Oceania (7,8) -> Asia (9,10,11) -> USA (12).

                    I really missed 6 continents race though, when is the last time we get it? Season 5?  :( :(

                    (A long overdue Africa start, Asia in middle race of 6 continent route. Leg 8-11 route is the reverse of TAR13 Leg 1-4 route.)

                    (Only logical way for 6 continent route with Africa in penultimate legs, again Asia in middle race. The Leg 1-4 route looks like TAR13 though.)

                    I know there is a thread for this but it's stuck in the Tar 26 folder so I thought I'd make a new one  :)

                    What countries do you reckon or what countries do you want to be visited in the upcoming seasons

                    For Tar 27 I think returns to South Korea, Australia & Brazil are needed. We could possibly see a new country something like the Bahamas or Barbados. Also I have a hunch they'll visit China again and if they do please let It be Beijing or Zhangjiajie. What do you think Tar 27 will look like?

                    Not sure if this is a wishlist or a spec thread, ??? but I say the Philippines should have at least one leg with 9 to 11 teams still racing.

                    Maybe they will fulfill our wish by giving us an African Leg 1 soon? ??? I hope they do.

                    How about those islands in Oceania for penultimate legs? ???

                    That's all I can predict. :lol:

                    I kind of predict 1/2 legs for India next season. (Maybe Russia too, but please not be Moscow or St.Petersburg) It had been a while since we get last India.  :( :( We need more chaotic leg and India definitely bring it. 

                    Oceania is a bit overdue too since Bora Bora and NZ from 22. I think 1/2 Oceania would be nice, Probably that canceled Melbourne from 24? I'd like to see Papau New Guinea , Solomon islands or Fiji too.

                    I think we might get no Africa next season since they're doing Africa for 2 consecutive season in a row.  :'( But if they wanna do, revisit Madagascar, Zambia, South Africa, Egypt or Tunisia is good. I kinda hold my breathe for Cape Verde and Comoros too.

                    For South America, I don't know if Colombia, Venezuela or Guyana is safe enough for them to have a leg there? 1 or 2 legs in those countries would be nice especially at the end of the race. Or if they wanna reuse, Bolivia is cool for me.

                    If they wanna do new country in Europe again, aka Monaco and Malta. Please do Luxembourg , Andorra + Spain or Latvia/Belarus. I don't understand why they keep revisiting Amsterdam and Germany. If they wanna reuse country, Greece or Finland please! I wanna see Iceland again too but with the budget cut, I think this is very doubtful.  :'( :'(

                    Canada would make for an interesting penultimate leg, I think they could pull that off well enough.

                    And then they could drive themselves to the US! :lol:

                    Would suit with F4 KOR though! (If they wanna continue with Final 4 for future season)

                    But I'm not seeing it since cost for 1 leg in Canada is probably equal to 2 legs in Asia or South Africa.  :funny:

                    1) A long overdue South Korea and Taiwan visit. China and Japan leg in last couple seasons was overused and kinda meh IMO.

                    2) India or Maldives visit. I kinda wish a Nepal visit but it was not happen anymore given the harsh situation of Nepal.

                    3) Oceania visit since TAR22. Please be the canceled Melbourne leg for Australia. Plus a snowy winter leg in South Island of NZ if the budget able to cover more Oceania leg.

                    4) Africa - I didn't expect any new countries there and South Africa revisit. I doubt they visit Africa next season since we have a bunch of Africa leg in 25/26. If they want to visit Africa in TAR27, I would prefer them to revisit Ethiopia and Madagascar.

                    5) Europe - Luxembourg, Latvia, Andorra, Slovakia, Bulgaria and a couple of Yugoslavian countries is a good choice for new countries. Plus a revisit of underused countries leg (Czech Republic, Finland, Greece, Hungary, etc...), and a BIG NO to the overused Amsterdam/France/Germany/Switzerland/Austria/UK leg as well.


                    6) South America - I think a South America metropolitan leg of Sao Paulo, Brazil and a Amazon jungle leg of Manaus, Brazil is great and distinguish with the TAR26 Peru legs.

                    7) Central America/Caribbean - IDK. A revisit of Puerto Rico and Jamaica was sound good. Plus a couple new Caribbean countries leg did fine for next season as well.

                    Thank you.  :kuss:  I guess Orlando was much better for a final leg, Jacksonville was kind of like a random place.


                    Either way, this route need to be used with the bunch of great TAR teams. Please have MORE female/friends/family teams with maximum of 2 dating couples and NO blind dating teams.

                    Speaking for myself if I were racing with my life partner I'd be pissed if I had to race in Russia.

                    Also a race with five legs in Africa is giving me LIFE though I feel like even with the geographic diversity you have you could have a leg in Tunisia (or you could switch out the UAE for another leg in Tunisia also) since it's off the travel warning list.

                    I agree with naejae91. We had a Caribbean visit recently in season 25. I guess will have a Central America start with Costa Rica going to revisit and is long overdue. No Panama for the third time.

                    We will get Ireland leg, particularly Dublin, the capital city was never visited. Belgium will have a chance to get revisited since TAR19.

                    TAR1, TAR17, and TAR25 are the only seasons in which the teams travel to a different continent from the first leg to the second leg.
                    There are zero visits to South America from Legs 5 to 9.
                    There are zero visits to Africa in any season's Leg 9 and 11.
                    There are zero visits to Australia and Oceania from Legs 5 to 7.
                    Not counting TAR8, Legs 3 to 10 have zero visits to North America.
                    Obviously, there was never a single visit to Antarctica.
                    There was never an African penultimate leg.
                    TAR1 was the only time there was an African first leg.

                    Let me try making a route that can change these facts. :lol: It will look very unrealistic though.

                    Leg 1: USA --> Cape Verde (11 teams)
                    Leg 2: Cape Verde --> Bahamas (10 teams)

                    Leg 12: Angola --> USA (Final 3 teams)

                    5 continents, 8 countries + Antarctica, no Europe and Asia.
                    I just wonder if that is diverse enough. ???
                    By the way, aside from USA, have any of these places been visited? ???

                    Antarctica <3333333 OMG PLZ DO! I think they should do this for their final all star season or something.  :funny:

                    I'm quite surprised that Bahamas had not yet visited? It would make good first leg or penultimate with lower budget?

                    It's pretty diverse route with tropical island / urban / Angola's desert and ANTARCTICA. lol

                    Triple U-Turn

                    Double Express Pass

                    I have new idea about The Save. (If they still want it to return in the future season  :funny:)

                    How about handle it like Immunity Idol in Survivor. Like, team that got it when step on the mat with Phil before Phil reveal their placement had to decide whether they will use it or not. I think this will create more drama and some team might predict it all wrong and go home with The Save aka John & Jessica in TAR22.  :funny:

                    The Save should've been like that from the very beginning, I don't understand why they had it like they did in TAR25

                    A TBC with the last team arriving there eliminated would be nice to have. Imagine two TBCs in a row, with the second one being an elimination point :lol:

                    I'm sure this has probably been said (I just don't want to read all 102 pages), but I'd like to see a 50/50 split of previous winners vs. never raced before. I'm sure you could get 5 winning teams to come back.

                    Maldives would be decent destination! But I wonder what kind of leg they can handle there since it's very small island. (Smaller than Bora Bora from 22?) ???

                    Treat Maldives as island/clean version of chaotic India/Bangladesh leg like Sri Lanka. Since Maldives culture resembles to Bangladesh (Islamic country in South Asia) but far less crowded and more cleaner than Bangladesh and India. I hope TAR27 can visit Maldives if India was not on the list next season.

                    Just recast the entire TAR 26 cast, with Kym & Alli replacing Tyler & Laura, and have them race again.  :funny:

                    But seriously, I'd love to see a returning racer Season with 12 Legs, and NO Eliminations.  Yea, it's never gonna happen, but imagine all 11 teams racing from the Start, right through to the Finish Line.  :didimiss:

                    And we wouldn't have to worry about there being "too many teams to know who's who" because they're all returnees so we'd already know them.  :lol:

                    If only we had a budget for such a thing though.  :'(

                    The Latin American race managed to get away with a visit to Venezuela, because they flew directly to a remote airport in a remote national park in the middle of the wilderness. The leg was held there, and then they left for Manaus, Brazil in the next leg.

                    I'm gonna place my wishes for TAR27 in here:
                    ~Visit at least 4 continents, but do 7 if possible.
                    ~Have a Leg 2 and/or Top 10 NEL.
                    ~Have an early leg in the Philippines. :hoot: Around Legs 1-4.
                    ~More FF teams. I miss those since the last season didn't have any.
                    ~More Fast Forwards! :hoot: I'm hoping for 3-5.
                    ~3 EPs! :hoot:
                    ~Return of the single U-turn, or add a good twist. (By good, that means not something as powerful as the Save.)
                    ~Visit 1 more new country!  :hearts:
                    ~90-min premiere or finale please?

                    That's all I can remember for now. :lol:

                    A 7 continent race would be awesome, but I doubt they'd do it since they didn't do it in All-Stars 1, which would've been the perfect time to go to Antarctica.

                    I think some of your hopes and dreams will be realized here (though it's for TAR 28 for reasons which will become apparent  :funny:). My kiiiiiiind of serious take on WRP's budget route planning.

                    Leg 1 - Washington, DC, USA to Port Elizabeth, South Africa - like 300 races have already been here. I would prefer original tasks but if they have a Switchback to HMLM 1 where someone has to break a hand mirror to cut a rope they poorly tied onto their truck I won't be mad.
                    Leg 2 - South Africa to Malolotja Nature Reserve, Swaziland - just about every race there's a leg where people get to see poor people live their lives as usual. This is that leg.
                    Leg 3 - Swaziland to Petra National Park, Jordan - I'm still surprised TAR hasn't eliminated someone on 'The High Place of Sacrifice'.
                    Leg 4 - Jordan to Aswan, Egypt - As it turns out most of the issues in Aswan are typical of most cities (pickpocketing, the joy of being a female traveler in a Muslim country, etc.) and not so much due to the events of the past few years as is more true in Cairo. Camels, the Nubian people, and a TBC because why not.
                    Leg 5 - Egypt to Inle Lake, Myanmar - Imagine that leg in Angkor Wat from TAR 13...but better. And an NEL because consecutive NELs are fun and good.
                    Leg 6 - Myanmar to Yangon, Myanmar - When was the last time we had a double leg in a new country (depending on your interpretation, it'd be either 6 seasons or 9 :O.)
                    Leg 7 - Myanmar to Hong Kong, China - blahblah overused I don't care, I just want a leg in Hong Kong that doesn't suck.  :'( (Also in my dream India is visited in 27 rather than China even though the opposite is likely true)
                    Leg 8 - China to Rotorua, New Zealand - see above. Also I kind of needed a leg in New Zealand so as to facilitate
                    Leg 9 - New Zealand to Easter Island - mmmhmm. SURE it might just be your standard bathing suit leg but EASTER ISLAND.
                    Leg 10 - Easter Island to Santiago, Chile - I mean there's really only one logical destination from Easter Island plus this route has a dearth of big cities in it to begin with so hopefully it sucks less then every other leg in Chile?
                    Leg 11 - Chile to Mt. Aconcagua, Argentina - If they insist upon this whole 'nonelimination at the end of leg 11' thing then I'd really like to see the racers suffer as a result. Difficult tasks, altitude weariness, and several hours of driving only to be told to get lost.
                    Leg 12 - Argentina (to Chile) to Miami, FL, US - how is it both legs in Miami suck? I don't get it *shrugs*.

                    Incidentally most of this could occur in real TAR - the first leg is consistent with having two flight options kind of reasonably close together, and the last third would likely be what the route is built around (there's an actual sequence of Auckland - Papeete - Easter Island - Santiago - Aconcagua via car - Santiago - Miami that exists) so the only hiccup is getting to and from Hong Kong but that's part of the challenge.

                    Amazing route, Zack! I'll do one that could fit well too...

                    Leg 1 - Miami, FL, USA to Lisbon, Portugal. - since we all get to see the eleven teams racing on a small country for the last seasons, i'm really pumped for this one to happen!

                    Leg 2 - Lisbon, Portugal to Faro, Portugal - Faro has like a huge amount of rich people living there. It is a small but really organized city! That would be incredible.

                    Leg 3 - Faro, Portugal to Toledo, Spain - The city of swords! Toledo is a huge part of Spain and there is a beautiful fortress on town.

                    Leg 4 - Toledo to Athens, Greece - Just to change it out a little bit. Greece is a beautiful country and i wouldn't mind seeing more of it.

                    Leg 5 - Athens to Cairo, Egypt - Like, we REALLY need to re-visit Egypt. It's a incredible place.

                    Leg 6 - Cairo, Egypt to Baku, Azerbaijan - That leg on TAR 20 was really really crappy. I'm sure they can explore more of the city and do SUCH a better job.

                    Leg 7 - Baku to Shirvan, Azerbaijan - Explore the country!

                    Leg 8 - Shirvan to Delhi, India - Like, India might be overused but we don't have a leg there since AR 20!!

                    Leg 9 - Delhi to Seoul, South Korea - Of course TAR has to go there. To me, that's the most incredible city on earth.

                    Leg 10 - Seoul to Sosan, South Korea - This is another country that HAS to be explored.

                    Leg 11 - Sosan, South Korea to Montréal, Canada - Why there was never a pit stop in Canada? Why there was never a full leg there? I'll never understend this.

                    Leg 12 - Montréal to New York City, US - Like, the most incredible ending city. Remember AR21? Great finale.

                    A 7 continent race would be awesome, but I doubt they'd do it since they didn't do it in All-Stars 1, which would've been the perfect time to go to Antarctica.

                    I wonder what kind of task they can handle there? Find Penguins or something? :lol:

                    I think they didn't do it on AS1 because there are still too much teams at that point? If the Ushuaia leg were at F5/4, I think there are high chance they visit Antarctica. I still hold my breathe for Antarctica in latter season since I think it can also be access via New Zealand, right? ???


                    Leg 7 - Myanmar to Hong Kong, China - blahblah overused I don't care, I just want a leg in Hong Kong that doesn't suck.  :'( (Also in my dream India is visited in 27 rather than China even though the opposite is likely true)


                    I think Hong Kong in TAR17 was pretty fantastic.  :'(

                    But your route was so <33. Easter Island <33. Mt.Aconcagua <33. Burma <33. And skipping Europe for a season might be a great choice since we got overload Europe lately. (I wanna say skip Asia too but it's inevitable to do that, right?)

                    Just finished watching TAR Australia 2 yesterday, and I must say that I love the division of the NELs, even though the 1st one is a pre-determined EL (Salvage Pass used). :hearts:

                    Watching the Top 11 teams race through the Philippines and India was fun! :hearts: Even Top 10 in India was fun already!

                    My point: I wish TAR27 visits the Philippines and/or India with 10-11 teams racing.

                    P.S. I'm still crossing my fingers for a Leg 2 NEL or a Top 10 NEL for the upcoming season.

                    What if there is race that has no teams, but 12 contestants racing alone, with Detour being working together with another contestants, if there is no contestants, they must wait for another contestants to come. Just a thought by me, don't know if this has been posted earlier.  :funny: We would see many contestants struggle through tasks.

                    That would not be very interesting imo, one of the best things about the show for me is the team dynamics.

                    I think it might work at Final 6 or something? Like flight bunching then split team into one person individual, force them to do RB by themselves and they have to wait for other person to perform the Detour with (Kind of like Intersection) then the final clue before heading to pit stop force them to wait for their partner before they can go check in.

                    It might be good since I think the tension will rise and it's gonna be interesting to watch team's strategic. Will they wait for their partner to perform Detour together? What will happened if they had to team up with the team that U-Turn them last leg or something. I think it's gonna cause lots of drama. Imagine Flo had to split up with Zach, they might be eliminated. :lol:

                    But it'll work if it's only for 1 leg though, for the entire race it's gonna be weird.

                    I got really bored so I ended up doing all this.  

                    Part 1:

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA – Auckland, New Zealand    (There's so much to do and NZ is teeming with great outdoor activities + it's a great country.)
                    Leg 2: Auckland, New Zealand - Queenstown, New Zealand    (See above)
                    Leg 3: Queenstown, New Zealand – Seoul, South Korea   (South Korea has been long overdue and visited once)
                    Leg 4: Seoul, South Korea – Singapore, Singapore   (Aside from it's a great nation. Every season that visited Singapore offered great drama.)
                    Leg 5: Singapore, Singapore – Male, Maldives   (About time they visit Maldives, a great tropical Asian island nation)
                    Leg 6: Male, Maldives – Cape Town, South Africa   (Like New Zealand, South Africa is teeming with great activities and great adventures. It needs more exploration.)
                    Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa - Limpopo, South Africa   (See above. A visit to Kruger National Park would be awesome)
                    Leg 8: Limpopo, South Africa – Copenhagen, Denmark   (Denmark is underused, and past seasons[19 & 25] that visited it offered great legs.)
                    Leg 9: Copenhagen, Denmark – Athens, Greece   (Greece is way long overdue. Has only been visitied once [Season 9]. This needs to be explored more.)
                    Leg 10: Athens, Greece – Santorini, Greece  (See above)
                    Leg 11: Santorini, Greece – London, United Kingdom   (As much as United Kingdom is overused, it is my perennial favorite. I want a better Central London leg with challenging activities. Royal theme. I guess?)
                    Leg 12: London, United Kingdom – Nassau, Bahamas – Miami,USA  (I would love to see the Bahamas visited.)

                    *I want a harder finale, 2 Roadblocks, 2 Detours. 4th team will be eliminated in Bahamas. I want a better finale leg in Miami.

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA – Melbourne, Australia (Australia, has not been visitied  and is also overdue.)
                    Leg 2: Melbourne, Australia – Cairns, Australia   (A leg that would involve the Great Barrier Reef would be awesome.)
                    Leg 3: Cairns, Australia - French Polynesia, France   (When French Polynesia was visitied in Season 22. I said WOW! this is paradise. It looks great on t.v. but I know it's better when you go there in person.)
                    Leg 4: French Polynesia, France – Sapporo, Japan   (Recent legs in Japan were underwhelming. I want a Japanese leg that revolves in Japanese culture. I would like to see contestants learn how to drift cars.)
                    Leg 5:  Sapporo, Japan - Stockholm, Sweden   (Sweden is underused and there is more to be explored.)
                    Leg 6: Stockholm, Sweden- Madrid, Spain   (Spain has lots of great destinations, explore the country more. I would like to see a Football-themed challenge.)
                    Leg 7: Madrid, Spain – Valencia, Spain  (See above.)
                    Leg 8: Valencia, Spain – Brussels, Belgium   (I would like a revisit to Belgium. I would like to see a Belgian chocolate-inspired task.)
                    Leg 9:  Brussels, Belgium - Salvador, Brazil (Brazil is also long overdue. We need 2 legs there.)
                    Leg 10: Salvador, Brazil – Sao Paulo, Brazil  (See above)
                    Leg 11: Sao Paulo, Brazil - Punta Cana, Dominican Republic   (The Race needs to have a leg in the Caribbean again.)
                    Leg 12: Punta Cana, Dominican Republic – New York, USA


                    Leg 1: Cincinatti, USA – Basseterre, St. Kitts and Nevis  (Hasn't been visited before, but this country offers loads of water sports and other outdoor activities.)
                    Leg 2: Basseterre, St. Kitts and Nevis – Panama City, Panama (I want a challenge in Panama Canal.)
                    Leg 3: Panama City, Panama – Rotterdam, The Netherlands   (Can we get a leg in the Dutch countryside.)
                    Leg 4: Rotterdam, The Netherlands – Helsinki, Finland   (Finland has been long overdue and has never had a pitstop. I would like to see winter legs here.)
                    Leg 5: Helsinki, Finland – Kuusamo, Finland   (See above, A forest winter leg would be awesome.)
                    Leg 6: Kuusamo, Finland - Harare, Zimbabwe  (A Victoria Falls visit would be great.)
                    Leg 7: Harare, Zimbawe – Port Louis, Mauritius (Mauritius, is one of the best African nations. The country is also one of the best sky diving places.)
                    Leg 8: Port Louis, Mauritius – Dubai, United Arab Emirates    (UAE was last visited in Season 23 and I think it needs more visits. All legs in UAE offer great challenges and lots of drama and tension.)
                    Leg 9: Dubai, United Arab Emirates - Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates   (See above)
                    Leg 10: Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates – Hong Kong, China   (China has been overly used but a Hong Kong leg never fails. I want another Hong Kong leg.)
                    Leg 11: Hong Kong, China – Nadi, Fiji   (With French Polynesia visited in Season 22, Why not visit Fiji?)
                    Leg 12: Nadi, Fiji - San Francisco USA


                    Hoping for:

                    ~1st Leg Non-Eliminations
                    ~10th Place Non-Eliminations
                    ~12 Teams Race with a Double Elimination sometime in the Race unknown to the Racers.
                    ~Triple U-Turns

                    Return of the:


                    ~Double Express Pass
                    ~Fast Forwards
                    ~Intersections
                    ~Hazards
                    ~Yield

                    Leg 12: London, United Kingdom – Nassau, Bahamas – Miami,USA  (I would love to see the Bahamas visited.)

                    *I want a harder finale, 2 Roadblocks, 2 Detours. 4th team will be eliminated in Bahamas. I want a better finale leg in Miami.


                    Just a personal thing, I would change the denmark leg to perhaps a Finland leg and the Singapore to a Busan, South Korea leg and then it would be a great route! Also would the finale leg be basically a double length leg similar to TAR6 in Hungary?

                    I like your idea :). The finale leg would be a double-length leg.

                    Omg, this route is so <33. I agree with SamualDude that if you switch Singapore to other region of South Korea, maybe Jeju or Busan, it'll be fantastic! Love the 2-island-NZ-visit in 1 season and Queenstown. <33  I think Bahamas-Miami as final leg would be nice to watch too and it fit with the F4-KOR we have right now.

                    For the second route, I think Osaka is too overused, I suggested Sapporo since it can handle self-driving (Drama <3) and shock the team with climate switch from hot -> cold.

                    And for third route, I'd love to see the return of Mauritius. <333 I'm really wishing that they'll have legs in African Island Nation since the last time we have was Seychelles 10 season ago! Comoros , Cape Verde , Sao Tome , Reunion , Mauritius or Madagascar please! And LOVE Rotterdam visit, I don't understand why they keep going back to Amsterdam when they visit Netherlands. :(

                    Thank you for liking. I modified the 2nd route and changed Osaka to Sapporo.  :) A lot of us here in RFF share the same sentiments. Hopefully, the producers are taking note and make it a reality.

                    Queenstown is a place that can be used in Winter and Summer and I'd love to see Queenstown/South Canterbury. It actually snowed in Queenstown yesterday so it's the perfect time for a Winter NZ Leg to show off our mountains a bit more.

                    So I recall mentioning how I skipped over 27 on the last page. Well...

                    Leg 1 - Arcadia, CA to Guam - as it turns out Guam is more than promotional material for the military (no disrespect to those who served). There's actual culture and beaches and...given this show likely some sort of task that results in three teams quitting. NEL though because it's been a while since we've had a leg 1 nonelim.

                    Leg 2 - Guam to Banaue, Philippines - so they probably can't redo broken ox again even though it would be EPIC with 11 teams. Nope, I'm imagining a far more torturous hunt through a bunch of rice paddies and also some variation of Jig and/or Pig.

                    Leg 3 - Philippines to Luang Prabang, Laos - if the previous leg were 'foresty physical leg' then this leg would be 'foresty cultural leg'. Bonus points if this is in monsoon season because we haven't had a rainy leg in ages.

                    Leg 4 - Laos to Madurai, India - I believe I said something to the effect of 'in my dream TAR 27 we go back to India'.

                    Leg 5 - India to Tbilisi, Georgia - nighttime leg? Sure! Because I'm a horrible person, after all the eating and drinking and merriment this is def a TBC <3

                    Leg 6 - Georgia to Stepantsminda, Georgia - your token adventure time leg, starting in Tbilisi and ending up several thousand feet above sea level.

                    Leg 7 - Georgia to Goreme, Turkey - Cappadocia <3 Fairy chimneys, underground cities, actual artifacts of things, and not pretending to dazzle viewers by going to Istanbul just to say we went into and out of Asia.

                    Leg 8 - Turkey to Venice, Italy - Venice is going to sink at some point so we might as well get the summer leg it deserves out of the way. Detour will absolutely be a choice between "Merchant of Venice" and "Death in Venice" which involves either fileting meet or wearing pounds of makeup lol.

                    Leg 9 - Italy to San Marino, San Marino - This would be your token 'car' leg; since TAR was okay with teams driving 215 km JUST to get to a Pit Stop I don't see the harm in them driving a third of Italy to get to their first Route Info <3

                    Leg 10 - San Marino (to Italy) to Goree Island, Senegal - Every season of TAR there's a leg in which people watch poor people live their lives as usual. This is that leg. I imagine most of the leg will occur on the island, which also allows for a lot of 'make your way on foot' clues <3

                    Leg 11 - Senegal to Dakar, Senegal - I believe Plat ALSO wanted a penultimate leg in Africa so yay it fits <3

                    Leg 12 - Senegal (to New York City) to Niagara Falls, NY - Niagara Falls is one of the few finish lines that I've actually visited and there was SO MUCH they could've done - the casino, Twist of the Mist, going out to the Observation deck, exploring the various state parks, etc. Teams would fly from Dakar to JFK and then take charter flights to a ~mystery destination~ that conveniently arrive in the morning on the next day instead of burning time climbing ships and breaking into stadiums and whathaveyou.

                    I'm a newcomer here, and always a TAR fan!!!
                    I'm posting a wishlist 'bout the pre-season 27...  :waves:
                     *Pretty sure India will make a comeback as double legs ( New Delhi/Hyderabad/or Chennai, anyone?)
                     *Australia has'nt been visited since TAR18 and cancelled in TAR24 (would like to see Brisbane and Melbourne!!!)
                     * Is there possibilities that the route would be from east-west???
                     * Wish that Argentina and South Africa would visit this season!
                    * New countries like:
                    - Latvia ( the only baltic state was'nt visited UNLIKE Lithuania and Estonia)
                    - San Marino (If there's a chance to see this so, Italy is its nearest...)
                    - Laos
                    - Maldives!!!
                    - Macedonia (historical sightings!)
                    - Bulgaria
                    - East Timor/Brunei legs! haha!

                     :) :) :)
                    Just a guess...
                    from West to East:
                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, CA to Australia- putting up a Starting Point in Beverly Hills' Greystone Mansion and then travel to Brisbane.
                    Leg 2: Australia- from Brisbane to Melbourne!
                    Leg 3: Australia to Maldives- Best to add Maldives here!

                    Leg 5: India - Hyderabad

                    Leg 7: Greece to Latvia- I think there's two options for a flight to Riga, it's either Santorini or to Athens...
                    Leg 8: Latvia to Italy- this From Riga to Rimini, Italy for flights.
                    Leg 9: Italy to San Marino - take a train, duh!
                    Leg 10:San Marino to Spain-  Barcelona is the shortest flight avail from San Marino
                    Leg 11: Spain- Must be from Barcelona to Madrid!
                    Leg 12: Spain to Boston, Massachussetts - for the first time!

                    I think you have your directions wrong, but maybe I'm being dumb myself. Wouldn't a west to east route start in North or South America and have its penultimate leg in Asia or Oceania?

                    Unless they mean from the Western USA to the Eastern USA?

                    i'd love to see San Marino as the new country to visited on the 27th seasons. :hearts:
                    also maldives and bahamas...
                    .
                    .
                    also revisiting belgium ( antwerp or brugge ) will be great too....
                    and don't forget indonesia ( cos it's where i'm from ) :funny:

                     :bigwelcome to RFF rafael02!

                    I agree with you! San Marino is very likely since they tend to visit small country in Europe lately. (Malta in 25 and Monaco in 26) A return to Belgium is a must too! (Antwerp please <3) and Indonesia in different island would be nice. (I wanna see Medan and Palembung)

                    - The Return of Double Express pass and Hazard ( why did they turn off hazard?   :gaah: )
                    - Great racers and their drama  :hearts: (like the 26th, altough it's overdramatic  :stare )
                    - New Suprisingly Twist ( like double elimination leg in penultimate leg ( From 5 to 3, with u-turn  :funny: ) instead of final 4 )
                    - More FF and revisited task...
                    - Villagers or Local doing something funny ( like the potato's vendors trolled the racers in Peru  :funny: , or the local judge in motorcycle task in Phillipines when he looked the cameramen and smiled a lot while correcting the racer's work(TAR 25)  :funny: )
                    - Closest Finish...  :cheer:

                    I have no problem with either Canada or Mexico being visited during a season but both in one is just a bit overkill of North America to me. It's one or the other.

                    I like the idea of Canada being the first leg and Mexico being the penultimate leg, but they shouldn't be the second and tenth leg because 5/12 legs in North America is overkill.

                    Definitely won't happen soon, but I have this idea:

                    Why not have the team with the best (lowest) average after 3 legs win an extra prize? This could be the return of the DYM from TAR21, or an extra U-turn power (which is too shallow), or even the Save (but I think it would be too late if given at Leg 3). Just a thought. :)

                    Oops...! I got it wrong! That's from Eastern USA to Western USA... I positioned first with Australia, or IF not, then it's from Western USA to Eastern USA.     ???
                     *Notice that San Marino is a small country, just like Malta from TAR25 and Monaco from TAR26. Hopefully it will visit alongside Italy and that's the shortcut way, most likely France -> Monaco...
                    *Maldives must be a part of it, and I would like to see the return of India, Spain, Greece and Australia...
                    *I think Europe will feature another new country, aside from San Marino, are Slovenia, Latvia, Macedonia, Andorra or Bulgaria. IF not, then there's a lot of time to revisit the EU countries like Spain, Greece, Ireland, Belgium, Romania and or Hungary... maybe 3 EU countries more or less???
                    * For Asian countries, there should be 2 countries more or less. If India is part of the season, then another country maybe Indonesia, Cambodia or South Korea?
                    * For Oceania, Australia and New Zealand are possibilities...
                    * For SA, there's Argentina and Brazil to return for another visit...

                    11th leg: New Zealand -> South Korea
                    12th leg: South Korea -> USA

                    Replace either the Canada or Puerto Rico legs with a second leg in South Africa and it looks like a good route! Also depends where in the countries the legs are!

                    I'd like to see this route (this is the same one I used in random game series 1, just one leg less):

                    Leg 1: Newark, New Jersey -> Port Elizabeth, South Africa
                    Leg 2: Port Elizabeth, South Africa -> Cape Town, South Africa

                    Leg 6: Vilnius, Lithuania -> Minsk, Belarus
                    Leg 7: Minsk, Belarus -> Tbilisi, Georgia
                    Leg 8: Tbilisi, Georgia -> Bangalore, India
                    Leg 9: Bangalore, India -> Vientiane, Laos
                    Leg 10: Vientiane, Laos -> Hobart, Tasmania
                    Leg 11: Hobart, Tasmania -> Wellington, New Zealand

                    Leg 1:
                    Washington DC, USA to The Hague, Netherlands (A DC start would be really cool and a visit to the Hague would be something new!)

                    Leg 2:
                    The Hague, Netherlands to Turku, Finland (A full leg in Finland in a smaller city with rural aspects)

                    Leg 3:
                    Turku, Finland to Helsinki, Finland (A big city Finland leg with lots of history!)

                    Leg 4:
                    Helsinki, Finland to Budapest, Hungary (We need a return visit to Hungary and a possible spicy soup switchback!)

                    Leg 5:
                    Budapest, Hungary to Rangoon, Burma (A country that the race hasn't visited yet and is an incredibly pretty country)

                    Leg 6:
                    Rangoon, Burma to Medan, Indonesia (A leg in a new place in Indonesia!)

                    Leg 7:
                    Medan, Malaysia to Queenstown, New Zealand (The Race hasn't been to Queenstown in a long time and would look amazing in HD!)

                    Leg 8:
                    Queenstown, New Zealand to Wellington, New Zealand (Our capital city has never been visited before and could showcase the unique culture of New Zealand and even have a task near the Beehive (Our parliament building))

                    Leg 9:
                    Wellington, New Zealand to Nadi, Fiji (A tropical Fiji leg for a new visit and a new culture!)

                    Leg 10:
                    Nadi, Fiji to Port Moresby, Papau New Guinea (Papau New Guinea hasn't been visited before and deserves a chance to show off it's culture)

                    Leg 11:
                    Papau, New Guinea to Davao, The Philippines  (Davao would make a nice change for a different Philippines leg!)

                    Leg 12:
                    Davao, The Philippines to Seattle, Washington, USA (We haven't had a Seattle finish since Season 3 and it deserves a full leg finale)

                    And kind of unfair because Cory used his story to gain money in the penultimate leg's RB, which was supposed to have them perform in public. Still like them enough though.

                    You are very likely to get snow in Dunedin or Queenstown at this time of year. If you have two NZ legs you can have a more culturally focused leg in and around Dunedin with the adventure/adrenaline leg in Queenstown.

                    For Dunedin, Have the teams visit Baldwin Street which is the world's steepest residential street. It also has a couple of museums that could feature  maori/NZ history themed tasks, Animal related tasks on the Otago Penninsula and then a pit-stop at Larnach Castle.

                    Thinking about TAR Australia vs NZ and how TARUS will probably at least try TAR US vs Canada before eventually getting cancelled, I remembered my dream of an International All-Stars season with teams from the various TARs around the world.  One big possibility would be that such a season could be co-produced with all the other home networks/production companies (ActiveTV, AXN, TV5, 7, Reshet, etc.) pitching in to pay for production.  Can you imagine what kind of locations and tasks they could now attempt with more money?! Maybe even 13 or 14 Legs!  :yess: Hehe.

                    (As for the passport issue, they could always hold teams and release them from the airport at the same time. It's not like they haven't done that before with all American teams anyway.) :hoot:

                    Season 27!

                    Starting Line: Los Angeles, CA ( (:;) as much as I hate to say it the LA starts are strategic since LAX is such a big airport)
                    Leg 1: Santiago & Valparaiso, CHILE (They just went there in season 23, but this time they should focus on the modern and urban centers of this up-and-coming nation!)
                    Leg 2: Antuco, CHILE (A ski resort town about 300 miles south of Santiago. A good leg for the stereotypical "South American wilderness" leg)
                    Leg 3: Sucre, BOLIVIA (The last time they went to Bolivia was in season 13, so it's long overdue. Plus the beautiful city coupled with the elevation would be just amazing.)
                    Leg 4: Potosi & Uyuni, BOLIVIA (A visit to the Salar de Uyuni. 'Nuff said)
                    Leg 5: Dublin, IRELAND (One of the few remaining cities in Europe that is unvisited, and Ireland itself has only been visited once. Also, I've personally been to Dublin and I can attest that it is absolutely stunning!)
                    Leg 6: Prague, CZECH REPUBLIC (Another undervisited country, as well as another gorgeous city)
                    Leg 7: Kutna Hora, CZECH REPUBLIC (In the Bohemian countryside. A visit to the Church of Bones and the nearby palace at Nove Dvory would be stunning!)
                    Leg 8: Larnaca, CYPRUS (A very safe Mediterranean country that has never been visited! Great opportunities for scuba diving challenges and ancient history reenactments (Othello anyone?  :funny: )
                    Leg 9: Kolkata, INDIA (Stereotypical leg in India, which hasn't been visited since Season 20!)
                    Leg 10: Darjeeling, INDIA (Northern highlands of India. A nice change of scenery since India is normally pictured as the urban cluster of poverty)
                    Leg 11: Taipei, TAIWAN (Typical East Asian penultimate urban leg)
                    Leg 12: Seattle, WA (Awesome city if I may add. It deserves a full leg!)

                    How would one dodge the various issues of the world this summer for TAR 27? Maybe:

                    START: Chicago, Illinois - whee not LA! You know what this means...

                    Leg 1: US to Xi'an, China - so the lock task was ~iconic~ but was limited by the hours operation and the fact that the Detour was generic and not actually a Detour. Cultural tasks plus lock task starting earlier in the day ensures there are meltdowns without multiple teams being thrown out of contention.

                    Leg 2: China to Rangali Island, Maldives - or more accurately, UNDER Rangali Island at the Ithaa Undersea Restaurant and were I not on my phone I'd show a link but it is preeeety cool.

                    Leg 3: Maldives to Ein Gedi, Israel - so the MERS outbreak makes it less than the usual amounts of desirable to go to the various countries that have Issues with Israel so we might as well go now yay!

                    Leg 4: Israel to Tel Aviv, Israel - it's weird, most legs in the Middle East devolve into legs based on nomadic culture, the desert in general (incl. camels) or ridiculous artifice (UAE legs) - this might be the first modern legin the region we get since...ever?

                    Leg 5: Israel to Sibiu, Romania - remeber that time we went to Romania and the leg reinforced a lot of stereotypes, from the lame to the offensive, and then it was overshadowed by Victor being a drama queen and a ridiculously obvious elimination? Good times right?

                    Leg 6: Israel to Grand Comore, Comoros - so while this is a not-so-obvious candidate for your annual 'look at these poor people' leg really I'm just here for the Livingstone bat.

                    Leg 7: Comoros to Menabe, Madagascar - really the leg centers around Morondava and the various animals that live near there but the Avenue of the Babosas sort of demands a Pit Stop.

                    Leg 8: Madagascar to Bloemfontein, South Africa - at first I was against the notion of spending so much time in southern Africa but I literally just saw a post on tumblr pimping it out and was all 'why not both *insert Hispanic child*?'

                    Leg 9: South Africa to Vienna, Austria and Bratislava, Slovakia - I really like the structure of the France/Monaco leg aside from the roulette wheel and so I think having that again, except this time ignoring self-driving in favor of forcing teams to decide how to get into and out of Slovakia (bus, train, taxi, etc) would be fun no?

                    Leg 10: Slovakia to Riga, Latvia - Lithuania + Estonia + Latvia = Baltics and 12 + 15 = 27 so it's perfect.

                    Leg 11: Latvia to Skogafoss waterfall, Iceland - if we're still doing this whole 'the final leg starts now so this physically demanding leg had not purpose' thing then this should be perfect with the driving around and various physical challenges and whatnot. If not, then it makes a good car leg and another homage to TAR 6.

                    Leg 12: Iceland to Cleveland, Ohio - aaaand another not-LA finish! kind of random Final City but populationwise it's within spitting distance of Atlanta and Miami PLUS there's a bunch of cool things to do, like a sport task which is culturally relevant for reasons beyond being able to rent out a stadium for a few hours or any task concerning rock and roll or golf or amusement parks. Best part is that any flight from Europe would get in in the afternoon, leading to a nighttime finish <3

                    I can see someone crow about budget what with 11 countries and all but most of them are off the beaten path and Iceland was saved for the endgame so it works out yay

                    Leg 1: USA (Detroit) > Canada (London, Toronto)
                    They could start at Detroit and Drive up to London for some tasks then self drive to Toronto. This can be KOR so there will be flight drama plus Canada haven't been visited since season 8

                    Self Drive to another unvisited city which has potential

                    Leg 6: South Africa > Czech Republic (Prague)
                    Haven't been visited and typical European Leg

                    Leg 7: Czech Republic > Hungary (Budapest)


                    Hungary has been ignored for a long time

                    Leg 8: Hungary

                    Deserves two legs.

                    Leg 9 Hungary > Cyprus

                    I want Cyprus , everyone wants Cyprus. It has potential

                    Leg 10: Cyprus > Australia (Cairns)

                    Skipping Asia due to MERS

                    Leg 11: Australia > Fiji (Nadi , Suva)

                    Again Everyone has been wanting to See Fiji for a long time.

                    Leg 12: Fiji > USA (Pheonix, Arizona)

                    Never seen finale here

                    Leg 2: Ireland > Isle of Man

                    Well... not gonna post a route :funny:

                    I posted this in another thread, figured then it was more of a wish, so here's my idea for a huge twist for some anniversary TAR. It includes teams switching partners along the race.


                    This idea would overcomplicate the race, but let me lay it out. The teams coming into the race are AA, BB, CC, DD (that's 4 teams) and so on.

                    Leg 1: Australia (Hobart, Tasmania) > Fiji (Suva)
                    Seriously Visit Fiji!! and Tasmania never been featured in TAR

                    Leg 2: Fiji > Japan (Tokyo)
                    They havent visit Japan yet

                    Leg 3: Japan (Sapporo)
                    Hokkaido Province havent been visited ever and it definetly shows the countryside of Japan

                    Leg 4: Japan > Mongolia (Ulaanbaatar)
                    We havent seen Mongolia since Tar 10 and nobody else has visited yet.

                    Leg 5: Mongolia > Qatar (Doha)
                    It would be the first time they visit Qatar in TAR like Israel

                    Leg 6: Qatar > Hungary (Budapest and Eger)
                    Hungary needs a visit like seriously! the historic monuments are so amazing there.

                    Leg 7: Hungary > Germany (Frankfurt)
                    Germany love :)

                    Leg 8: Germany > UK (London and Manchester)
                    They havent visit UK in this version and they could have a leg for Australia history.

                    Leg 9: UK > Morocco (Casablanca)

                    Let's have a season where we bring back one person from a team, but matching them up with a new partner (someone they know). It is kind of like Survivor Blood VS Water, just that they are working together with their loved one instead of competing against them.

                    What do you guys think  :waves:

                    Yeah......... that would be a rip-off of BvW, like you mentioned :funny:
                    And I don't think I would like it that much - in Survivor you like the contestants as individuals and on TAR I very rarely like an individual, not the entire team. I seem to like one person from the team only when I hate the team overall :lol: That is a reference to Bergen.

                    Richard & Richard (TARA4)

                    Joey & Richard (TARAu1)
                    Lucy & Emilia (TARAu2)
                    Sarah & James (TARAu2)
                    Michelle & Jo (TARAu2) (Can you imagine them vs BQs vs Mirna & Schmirna? lol)
                    Dani & Mish (TARPh1) ^Alpha female battle!
                    Paul & Steve (TARAu2)

                    How can you even bring up alpha female teams without talking about Natalie & Meaghan from TARCan2!?

                    I'd even like to see an All Stars version of USA vs Canada, although TARCan has only had 3 seasons, the casts have been great for both!

                    Leg 1:
                    Honolulu, Hawaii, USA to Alice Springs, Australia (A overdue Hawaii start and an overdue visit to Alice Springs

                    Leg 2:
                    Alice Springs, Australia to Hobart, Australia (Another long overdue visit this time to Hobart)

                    Leg 3:
                    Hobart, Australia to Queenstown, New Zealand (An HD leg in Queenstown would look incredible!)

                    Leg 4:
                    Queenstown, New Zealand to Santiago, Chile (A mid race trip to South America would be a great change of pace especially for Chile legs)

                    Leg 5:
                    Santiago, Chile to Manaus, Brazil (Manaus is a great city and so close to the Amazon)

                    Leg 6:
                    Manaus, Brazil to Rio de Janerio, Brazil (A return to Rio in time for the 2016 Olympics)

                    Leg 7:
                    Rio de Janerio, Brazil to Lusaka, Zambia (A longover due return visit for Zambia!)

                    Leg 8:
                    Lusaka, Zambia to Livingstone, Zambia (Which deserves 2 legs)

                    Leg 9:
                    Livingstone, Zambia to Budapest, Hungary (Spicy Soup switchback anyone?)

                    Leg 10:
                    Budapest, Hungary to Brussels, Belgium (Belgium deserves another leg!)

                    Leg 11:
                    Brussels, Belgium to Reykjavik, Iceland (Another overdue return visit especially in HD!)

                    Leg 12:
                    Reykjavik, Iceland to Boston, Massachusetts, USA (We haven't had a Boston final which is just full of US History)

                    5 continents, 9 countries, 32,000 miles

                    They can wear protective gears like helmets, knee and elbow pads.

                    It's just a wish! Maybe yeah, as part of a task or something, instead of walking or riding a bike?

                    ^ Oh, really there's already a prohibition from production to ride motorbikes? I didn't know. :lol:

                    The route is really cool! Slovenia & Cyprus & Kyrgyzstan <33 Songkran's RB in Chiang Mai <3333 (I don't know if the shooting is gonna fit in with the festival time (13-15 Apr) but they can staged it like Holi in TAR13! TAR should have done it in one of their several Thailand's visit! Instead of going on boat and Phuket-BKK combo repeatedly :res:) Toulouse <333 (Although I kind of hope Andorra after Toulouse leg, but Paris is so long overdue and should have given another shot!)

                    Leg 12: Perth, Australia to Novosibirsk, Russia to Atlantic City

                    Just for fun!

                    :lol:

                    Just wonder how long the filming will be. The final 3 might be 100+ years old when cross the finish line. :lol:

                    No, it uses supersonic/high speed travel!

                    Just imagine... wow! This is all sci-fi. :funny:

                    Batam & Bintan should be one leg since they're very similar and anyway there isn't much in Bintan except for the resorts

                    This may just be a wishlist, but I just wanna ask: Is East Timor dangerous?

                    I don't think it's safe for the race though. Lots of ethnic problem. May lead to violent.

                    Maybe swap East Timor to Brunei and that road would be perfect!

                    Yeah! Southern Algeria isn't very safe though, and the only urban crime is directed against the police. An urban leg in Algiers should be fine for one leg. In Season 26, they went to Thailand for two legs even though the country was undergoing a coup!

                    Thailand isn't that dangerous TBH, especially during the filming of season 26. (Around Nov-Dec) If they went on filming during season 25 in Thailand (May-Jul), then I'll be surprised. Since that's when the crisis peak. :lol:

                    There is nothing wrong with Thailand, but that it is just so overused on The Amazing Race, much like China, Argentina, Russia, The Netherlands and Chile.

                    New (not to an extreme extent) non-elimination penalty!
                    It's at that time when TAR needs a twist to the race-play. Though a Speed Bump has been a favorite for us and, at times, racers, I think the current last place penalty has run its course. Since TAR23?, Phil or the editing squad has yet to explain a clarification of a Speed Bump at the Pit Stop to new audiences. Goes to show how much a Speed Bump really matters today. Like "marked for elimination", this penalty may be effective, will use less budget like the Speed Bump, and potentially make teams strategize to overcome it.

                    The Freeze/Stop
                    Combo of Yield & MFE and uses sponsored FitBit
                    :rulz:
                    The penalized team would each have to reset their personal FitBit at the beginning of the Leg. If ONE teammate reaches a certain range of steps (such as 10,000-10,100), the team must pause whatever they are doing for ten minutes before resuming their action including, but not limited to, driving, tasks, dancing, and riding bikes. The other teammate fitting the range would make the team do the same thing again. Failure to comply with the rule for BOTH team members would result in a 1-hr penalty at the Pit Stop before they can check in.

                    I actually had a dream about this last night, for some odd reason.

                    During the first leg, the teams are separated onto two different flight normal. The first flight carries 5 teams and the second flight carries the other six teams. The first flight runs a normal first leg, however the second flight - because of the 6 teams - involves a Intersection that only the second flight does.

                    I feel like it would be cool to have more Detours with less 'obvious' pros and cons. France in 26 is a good example wherein the zipline task was easier to do and closer to the Pit Stop BUT farther away from the casino and there's the added time of teams having to change into and out of their fancy clothes.

                    Perhaps a twist to those adventure tasks a la ziplining where they have to test some sort of safety equipment and get $20 for their efforts or summat.

                    I'd love to see the hazard and double elimination again :conf:

                    I'd be all for the Hazard returning, but it would need to be implemented more effectively.  An idea could be that the last team to complete the Start Line task will receive the Hazard (the same as S19), and again have Leg 1 a NEL, but hold the actual Hazard task on the 2nd Leg.  It could work well that way.

                    As for the Double Elimination, I'd rather we never see it again. Just hated the entire concept of it.  :lol:

                    If TAR Asia and TAR Australia were able to do early Philippine Legs, TARUS should be able to handle 1 or 2. :cheer:

                    Leg 6: to Strasbourg, France
                    Leg 7: to Paris, France to Kourou, French Guiana (France owns them, so I'm gonna go with it)
                    Leg 8: to Neuquen, Argentina
                    Leg 9: to El Calafate, Argentina
                    Leg 10: to Santiago, Chile
                    Leg 11: to Easter Island, Chile (again, it's owned by Chile soooo)
                    Leg 12: to  Kaneohe, HI

                    This one seems more of a challenge this time.

                    Leg 1: Hawaii, USA --> Bora Bora, French Polynesia (France) (tropical leg)
                    Leg 2: Bora Bora (tropical leg)
                    Leg 3: Bora Bora --> South Korea (winter leg)
                    Leg 4: South Korea --> Hungary
                    Leg 5: Hungary --> Germany
                    Leg 6: Germany --> Georgia
                    Leg 7: Georgia --> Hungary
                    Leg 8: Hungary --> Chile (desert leg)
                    Leg 9: Chile --> Argentina (glacial leg)
                    Leg 9: Argentina --> Chile (mountainous leg)
                    Leg 11: Chile --> Argentina (mountainous leg)
                    Leg 12: Argentine --> USA

                    2 legs in 1 country happen often, but I don't wanna overdo them.

                    Oort's Cloud should get his own leg too.  :(

                    Btw, The funny thing is if you replace 2 of your space legs and maybe add 2 South America leg, it suddenly become AMAZING route. (OMG at Greenland and Antarctica in same season. I would die.) <3

                    I thought today, that since they did a W-Turn on leg 1 last season, it would be awesome to see a Fast Forward on leg 1. :trampb:
                    There would definitely be a lot of chaos, especially if the teams land at approximately the same time and hopefully we would get some gold FF moments like in TAR25 or even TAR17, when teams arrive to find the fast forward is already taken.

                    And even it it wasn't put on the first leg, a fast forward with 10-8 teams remaining would still be awesome!

                    What about a start line take for the FF

                    Do you mean that the starting line task would be a fast forward competition?
                    Omg that would be cool. I've just had an idea now:

                    Phil does the usual announcements at the starting line and then hints that they're first task is already waiting nearby.
                    The race then starts and teams run to their backpacks to find their first (route info) clue: it says their first destination is *country* and there are 2 flights departing 1 hour apart. Only 5 teams will be on the first flight.
                    Attached to their route info is a fast forward clue, which instructs teams to run to a nearby place where 1 team will win the fast forward.

                    Some teams would just go for the 1 hour flight lead and drive straight to the airport, while some would risk being behind and try to get the fast forward.

                    3. United States ( St. Louis ) ~ Cahokia is basically St. Louis

                    4. United States > Iceland ( Reykjavik )

                    5. Iceland > Togo ( Lome )

                    13. Mexico > United States ( Niagara Falls ) > Canada ( Niagara Falls ) ~ I swapped them round because the airport is on the American side.

                    Chile

                    Spain
                    Canada

                    Countries they HAVE never visited that I would like to see:

                    Fiji
                    Bhutan
                    Nepal

                    Chile being overused despite being visited as frequently as Australia or NZ (7/11/16/23, 2/4/9/18, 2/5/13/22 respectively)  :( innyway

                    START: Honda Center, Anaheim, CA - preferably on the ice itself lol; LA start but in order for this to be remotely possibleI need a cheap start.
                    Leg 1: US to Puno, Peru (via Bolivia) - this is going to be a geographic-heavy season so why not start off right with Titicaca?
                    Leg 2: to Valparaiso, Chile - I mean we've had a total of 7 legs in Chile and I only have liked 2 sides of a Detour welp? Plus one would want to be close to a hub for...
                    Leg 3: to Melbourne, Australia - Yarra Valley means winemaking, nighttime in Melbourne means beer and rowdy locals and rugby yay
                    Leg 4: to Hue, Vietnam - SE Asia historically delivers. Bonus points for cyclos.
                    Leg 5: to Luang Prabang, Laos - pretty sure the leg already exists so its not like work needs to be done lol
                    Leg 6: to Grand Bay, Mauritius - as I recall the last leg here was terribad so
                    Leg 7: to Camarel, Mauritius - since this is a giant bottleneck anyway there may as well be a second leg and a gnome involved lol
                    Leg 8: to Alexandria, Egypt - libraries and sneaky trips to kinda unsafe but not really unsafe countries plus I think as a whole the ME legs could be...less bad (25.5 notwithstanding)
                    Leg 9: to Vienna, Austria to Banska Stiavnica, Slovakia - de rigeur NEL for car leg
                    Leg 10: to Bratislava, Slovakia - whereas the previous leg explores Slovak myths and mining practices, this one would hopefully show the balance between Bratislava being a relatively small city and a relatively modern one
                    Leg 11: to Banff National Park, Canada (via Calgary) - thus, a true 6 continent race, preferably with teams ending up on the Continental Dividea la TAR 5
                    Leg 12: to Phoenix, Arizona - the best way to counter the freezing weather atop a cordillera is to race in the desert the next day <3

                    Titicaca <3
                    Alexandria <33
                    Double legs in Mauritius <333 (Seriously, they NEED to go back soon. The one in TAR10 was such a joke)
                    Canada -> Arizona <333 (Cold -> Hot to mess with the teams and it could work well with mid-leg elimination :lol:)

                    For SEASON 28, the must visit locations for me are:

                    New Zealand (or) Australia
                    Bhutan
                    South Africa/Congo/Kenya/Uganda
                    Slovenia/Montenegro/Bosnia & Herzegovina
                    Latvia (or) Luxembourg
                    Belgium
                    Spain
                    Venezuela

                    Canada

                    Congo and Venezuela is too dangerous to race in I think. And Bhutan is pretty hard to plan the leg and even to only visit require lots of process.

                    But I would love to see the rest of your choices too!

                    -San Marino to Andorra is all driving.
                    -Sleep Deprivation + Self-driving in late game + Self-driving around multiple countries within 2 legs = comedy gold!

                    Ya, at first I was trying to make a somewhat realistic 6 continent race (though I could see production switch out Slovakia for a more well connected country; I would switch it to the UK and have a KOR situation with Southampton and Jersey) and then it just happened that I picked a bunch of places that had awful legs (Chile, Mauritius, ME, Canada, Phoenix) in an inversion of 27 <3

                    I thought today, that since they did a W-Turn on leg 1 last season, it would be awesome to see a Fast Forward on leg 1. :trampb:

                    I thought today, that since they did a W-Turn on leg 1 last season, it would be awesome to see a Fast Forward on leg 1. :trampb:

                    TAR 1.....
                    2, 3, and 4 (2 is unaired but confirmed by Cyndi)

                    Maybe for me, I wouldn't want to see this, because of the Express Pass that has been added since TAR17, which I think is better than a Fast Forward on the 1st leg. Just my opinion. :)

                    I want to see TARUS, in the middle of the race course, return to USA for a leg  :lol: Something like this:

                    Leg 1: New York, USA to Frankfurt, Germany
                    Leg 2: Germany to Belgrade, Serbia
                    Leg 3: Serbia to Amman, Jordan
                    Leg 4: Madaba/Wadi al-Seer, Jordan (with maybe a visit to the Dead Sea)
                    Leg 5: Jordan to Hong Kong, China (first location will be in Jordan, Kowloon  :lol: )
                    Leg 6: Hong Kong to Brisbane, Australia to Port Vila, Vanuatu
                    Leg 7: Vanuatu to Honolulu, Hawaii, USA
                    Leg 8: USA to Vancouver, Canada
                    Leg 9: Canada to Madrid OR Valencia, Spain
                    Leg 10: Ibiza, Spain
                    Leg 11: Spain to Dakar, Senegal
                    Leg 12: Senegal to Washington, D.C.

                    Alternately, one Spain leg (Madrid) and two Senegal legs. I would also replace Canada with a visit to Central/South America so as not to have so many primarily English-speaking countries, especially in a row (Aus-USA-Canada)

                    I wish to see more fast forwards being challenged. It is usually heartbreaking to see the losing team be eliminated (if it happens), but the drama of these just comes out rarely these days. :conf:

                    Really hope the race can do 1 - 2 legs which forces the racers to only use public transportation to proceed but not taxi
                    this can make great drama especially the leg is in big cities like Shanghai or Beijing with great language barrier :cheer:

                    Leg 12: Sweden --> USA (F4 midpoint elimination)

                    The 2-straight-legs-in-1-country trend annoys me sometimes, especially when used too often (example: TAR24), so I had to split the countries sometimes to add some twist to it.
                    On a side note, mid-race legs (Legs 5-8) in South America would be really cool to watch. :colors We never had those for the US version.

                    The countries indicated above would be great to see. :wohoo: I am missing Iceland and Ethiopia, and I wanna see Nepal soon.

                    Also, 13 legs in a race would be really nice if they are still possible. They can make it return by having a Keep On Racing twist at the end of the 11th leg, then starting the 12th leg (probably) on the same country. :colors

                    Leg 13: Chile --> Hawaii, USA                           [4 teams, no midpoint elimination]

                    5 South American legs sound like an overkill, but if they try to balance it with other countries (and maybe less Europe like this one), maybe the route would still go well.
                    Meanwhile, it'd also be cool to see Eastern and Western Russia in 1 season, but both legs are not beside each other. :hearts:

                    I want a M/F team who are dating/engaged/married to have a female taller than his male partner. :lol:
                    Amy & Daniel? ??? I think Amy might be slightly taller.

                    I would like to see Boss/Employee team as well as the team in which one has a debt to another one so that if they win one of them will get all the money

                    I really want to see an older female-female team on the race, it has been SO darn long! How about a pair of fit grandmothers 50+ (e.g. Margie, 56 and Denise, 51 - both look fit, but of that age bracket!)

                    Since it seems that the routes of the past few seasons are marked by vague ~themes~ (islands in 25, ridiculous flights in 26, SPOILERS for 27) I figure why not have a fun one for 28.

                    START - Treasure Island, San Francisco, CA
                    With the first clue being video footage of the sprint to Fort Baker in TAR 2 a la 25.

                    Leg 1 - US to Ba Province, Fiji
                    So I like 25's premiere being vaguely Survivor-like BUT I think we can do better - FIRE making, drinking coconuts, etc.

                    Leg 2 - Fiji to Melbourne, Australia
                    I feel like this is a fairly reasonable hop, skip and jump ignoring the fact that it's an obvious destination. Bonus points for it likely being the first 'modern' Australia leg since Sydney 26 seasons prior; we've just hit a beach and we'll hit a desert eventually (spoiler)

                    Leg 3 - Australia to Chengdu, China
                    I want pandas and teams racing in darkness. Legs have been made with less.

                    Leg 4 - Chengdu to Muyu, China
                    I've found that, typically, the best structured (read: tasks, locations, transport, not dramas) Chinese legs are the more "traditional" ones - Guilin, Lijiang, and Kunming - so accordingly here's a random city in China you're welcome. ^_^

                    Leg 5 - China to Bukhara, Uzbekistan
                    There's no travel advisory so I'm gonna allow it especially since the main component of the leg is a train ride-turned-bartering RB.

                    Leg 6 - Uzbekistan to Athens, Greece
                    I'm kinda hesitant about this leg since the Rome leg in That One Season is awful but I'd love a modern leg in Greece.

                    Leg 7 - Uzbekistan to Kisoro, Uganda
                    With pandas spoken for I figure it's time for gorillas and the traditional agricultural leg.

                    Leg 8 - Kisoro to Jinja, Uganda
                    Logical next step I suppose.

                    Leg 9 - Uganda to Dublin, Ireland
                    I seem to recall Ireland legs being like, really good so how about another? A Guinness or Bailey's Detour would be fun though it would probably prevent TAR from returning to Ireland lol

                    Leg 10 - Ireland to Milan, Italy to Lugano, Switzerland
                    Whatever handwaving is required to get us to here (http://www.myswitzerland.com/en-us/cappella-santa-maria-degli-angeli-lugano.html) is appreciated. I envision them attempting to drive across the Italian / Swiss border though trains could be fun as well. :)

                    Leg 11 - Switzerland to San Juan, Puerto Rico, US
                    Because the leg in 7 with the golf and abandoned sugar factories with hours of operation ( (:;)) and all was really terrible and since then, Latin American endgame legs have been great. Also the idea of an island sandwich is great because it leads to

                    Leg 12 - Puerto Rico to Napa Valley, CA
                    ...a San Francisco sandwich lol. There's definitely a task involving wine, probably one about ballooning, cryptic clues and a final challenge involving an eating tour of the world (Sausalito cookies, Fiji water, vegemite, hot pot, Chinese tea, plov, baklava, coffee, honey, Guinness, chocolate, seafood salad, and wine). <3

                    Hmm..

                    START - Kensington Palace, London, UK
                    Leg 1 - to Jinja, Uganda
                    Leg 2 - to Zanzibar, Tanzania*
                    Leg 3 - to Yarra Valley, Australia
                    Leg 4 - to Queenstown, New Zealand
                    Leg 5 - to Dunedin, New Zealand
                    Leg 6 - to Buenos Aires, Argentina
                    Leg 7 - to Queens, New York, USA**
                    Leg 8 - to (Quebec to) Victoriaville, Canada
                    Leg 9 - to Laguna de Bay, Philippines
                    Leg 10 - to Chennai, India
                    Leg 11 - to Kolkata, India
                    Leg 12 - to (London to) Bath, England
                    FINISH - Royal Crescent, Bath, England

                    It was kind of ridiulous trying to find links to Queen Victoria or queens in general or Victorias in general but they exist so yay plus I didn't default to 10 legs in English speaking countries (in fact I was close to putting a leg in Victoria BC or Brisbane.

                    *birthplace of Freddy Mercury, lead singer of Queen
                    **is obvious PLUS the Pit Stop would definitely be the Unisphere

                    Leg 1: San Francisco, California, USA to Apia, Samoa (San Francisco hasn't been used for a starting line and Samoa is a country that deserves a visit)

                    Leg 2: Apia, Samoa to Melbourne, Australia (One of the only main cities that TAR US hasn't visited in Australia)

                    Leg 3: Melbourne, Australia to Alice Springs, Australia (Alice Springs and the outback deserve another visit!)

                    Leg 4: Alice Springs, Australia to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City deserves another visit!)

                    Leg 5: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam to Naypyitaw, Myanmar (A country that truly deserves a visit!)

                    Leg 6: Naypyitaw, Myanmar to Rangoon, Myanmar (A country so beautiful it deserves two legs!)

                    Leg 7: Rangoon, Myanmar to Saint Petersburg, Russia (We haven't visited Russia for a wee while)

                    Leg 8: Saint Petersburg, Russia to Helsinki, Finland (Finland deserves a proper visit after what happened in season 10)

                    Leg 9: Helsinki, Finland to Turku, Finland (Like with Myanmar it deserves two legs)

                    Leg 10: Turku, Finland to Lisbon, Portugal (Portugal needs more visits!)

                    Leg 11: Lisbon, Portugal to Montego Bay, Jamaica (Same with Jamaica)

                    Hmm, how can I follow up my last mini challenge?

                    1) It must start and finish in the US
                    2) It should have at least four continents.
                    3) There should be at least two legs in countries  visited only onct.
                    4) There should be at least eight different non-English languages represented on the route (for perspective TAR 26 had 7)

                    Have fun :)

                    If there were to be an Amazing Race: New Zealand I'd like this to be the first route!

                    Leg 1: Auckland, New Zealand to Alice Springs, Australia (A start at the Cape Reinga Lighthouse, The most northerly part of New Zealand and a parrell between the Maori people and Australia's indigenous people)
                    Leg 2: Alice Springs, Australia to Taipei, Taiwan (Taiwan is really underused and deserve a leg!)
                    Leg 3: Taipei, Taiwan to Shanghai, China (Shanghai to get the modern China to contrast...)
                    Leg 4: Shanghai, China to Xian, China (An rustic China leg with throwbacks to the Terracota Warriors and love lock roadblock throwback)
                    Leg 5: Xian, China to Muscat, Oman (A middle eastern leg with a underused country)
                    Leg 6: Muscat, Oman to Luanda, Angola (A country that has never been visited as is pretty safe with a outskirts of a city leg)
                    Leg 7: Luanda, Angola to Andulo, Angola (The traditional African safari leg)

                    Pick a continent (Based on the traditional seven-continent system, mind you, and obviously excluding Antarctica), and make an interesting race route that only takes place in that continent.

                    I'd be interested to see North America in particular...

                    Interesting... I think Europe, Asia, and North America will be the ones with much diverse locations, so I'm going with Asia.

                    Leg 1: Ankara, Turkey --> Doha, Qatar         (F12, EL)
                    Leg 2: Qatar --> Muscat, Oman                    (F11, EL)
                    Leg 3: Oman --> Male, Maldives                   (F10, NEL)
                    Leg 4: Maldives --> Colombo, Sri Lanka       (F10, EL)
                    Leg 5: Sri Lanka --> Dili, East Timor             (F9, EL)
                    Leg 6: East Timor --> Mindoro, Philippines   (F8, EL)
                    Leg 7: Philippines --> Kyoto, Japan              (F7, NEL)
                    Leg 8: Japan --> Busan, South Korea          (F7, EL)
                    Leg 9: South Korea --> Urumqi, China         (F6, EL)
                    Leg 10: China --> Bishkek, Kyrgyztan          (F5, EL)
                    Leg 11: Kyrgyztan --> Yerevan, Armenia      (F4, EL)
                    Leg 12: Armenia --> Nicosia, Cyprus            (F3)

                    That felt fun... ??? I think I should try North America some other time. :lol:

                    Since you asked so nicely:

                    START: St. Louis, MO, USA
                    Leg 1: to Havana, Cuba (if Vanity Fair can go just to take fashion photography then I see no issue with TAR)
                    Leg 2: to Hollywell NP, Jamaica
                    Leg 3: to Willemstad, Curacao, NA
                    Leg 4: to (Kralendijk to) Klein Bonaire, Bonaire, NA
                    Leg 5: to Copan Ruinas, Honduras
                    Leg 6: to Guatemala City, Guatemala
                    Leg 7: to Guadalajara, Mexico
                    Leg 8: to Phoenix, AZ, USA
                    Leg 9: to Napa Valley, CA, USA
                    Leg 10: to Prince Rupert, BC, Canada
                    Leg 11: to Banff  NP, AB, Canada
                    Leg 12: to St. Louis, MO, USA

                    Balancing out the languages was kinda hard since I didn't want six legs in English-speaking or Spanish-speaking areas, hence trips to semi-rural Jamaica, the Netherland Antilles and Prince Rupert, BC (petition for First Nations representative Suzette Amaya to be greeter  :luvya:). Somehow there's enough relevant locations for a drink-related final task lol

                    Also another new challenge, this time with difficulty levels  :conf:

                    EASY:
                    1. Must start and end in US with 12-13 legs.
                    2. For each country chosen as well as the Finish Line, find the last season that hosted a leg for it on TAR and note the season number. The total for your season should be less than 110.

                    For example, TAR 26 would be: 23 (Japan) + 19 (Thailand) + 22 (Germany) + 0 (Monaco) + 21 (France) + 2 (Nambia) + 21 (Netherlands) + 7 (Peru) + 5 (Dallas) = 120 and they could've easily had a leg in Slovakia instead of Bavaria.

                    Notes: a) only count places that had actual tasks or RIs (so Kenya is 0, notably), b) dependant territories should be separate from their home countries (Greenland, French Polynesia, etc) and c) separate the individual countries of the UK when calculating (though they're all pretty high so...)

                    HARD:
                    1) Start and end wherever but at least 2 continents.
                    2) Your route should have AT MOST 3 legs which take place in a country's largest city by population, with the exception of chartered transportation and microstates with only one "city" like San Marino or Andorra.

                    SERIOUSLY?!:

                    Also another new challenge, this time with difficulty levels  :conf:

                    EASY:
                    1. Must start and end in US with 12-13 legs.
                    2. For each country chosen as well as the Finish Line, find the last season that hosted a leg for it on TAR and note the season number. The total for your season should be less than 110.

                    For example, TAR 26 would be: 23 (Japan) + 19 (Thailand) + 22 (Germany) + 0 (Monaco) + 21 (France) + 2 (Nambia) + 21 (Netherlands) + 7 (Peru) + 5 (Dallas) = 120 and they could've easily had a leg in Slovakia instead of Bavaria.

                    Notes: a) only count places that had actual tasks or RIs (so Kenya is 0, notably), b) dependant territories should be separate from their home countries (Greenland, French Polynesia, etc) and c) separate the individual countries of the UK when calculating (though they're all pretty high so...)

                    HARD:
                    1) Start and end wherever but at least 2 continents.
                    2) Your route should have AT MOST 3 legs which take place in a country's largest city by population, with the exception of chartered transportation and microstates with only one "city" like San Marino or Andorra.

                    SERIOUSLY?!:
                    1) Make any sort of feasible route with St. Helena  :funny:

                    Why do I think that easy and hard are sarcastic? :lol: I'm gonna do easy. Also, I'm not gonna include elimination legs for now.

                    Leg 1: Alaska, USA --> Vladivostok, Russia       (21)
                    Leg 2: Russia --> Sonbong, North Korea           (0)
                    Leg 3: North Korea --> Thimphu, Bhutan           (0)
                    Leg 4: Thimphu, Bhutan
                    Leg 5: Bhutan --> Kuwait                                   (10)
                    Leg 6: Kuwait --> Athens, Greece                      (9)
                    Leg 7: Greece --> Bucharest, Romania              (14)
                    Leg 8: Romania --> Addis Ababa, Ethiopia         (6)
                    Leg 9: Ethiopia --> Moroni, Comoros                 (0)
                    Leg 10: Moroni, Comoros
                    Leg 11: Comoros --> San José, Costa Rica        (8 )
                    Leg 12: Costa Rica --> Guatemala, Guatemala   (0)
                    Leg 13: Guatemala --> Minnesota, USA             (0)

                    Total:                                                                  68

                    Plat: ''HARD" was initially going to be at most *2* but then it turns out the only race that managed this was TAR 8 lol.

                    "EASY" is easier I think since many seasons get close to 110 if not lower but have at least one obvious substitution (Laos over Thailand in 26, Crete over Sicily in 25, most countries in 24, etc).

                    Also, Minnesota would be 0 and I suspect Bhutan would force production to have an NEL there if they ever host a leg

                    BritishTARFan: - technically Phoenix would be 8  :snicker: (I think Czech Republic x2 over Belgium makes the math work still :))

                    And to put my money where my mouth is:

                    Leg 1 - Albuquerque, NM to Guadalajara, Mexico (3)
                    Leg 2 - to Antigua, Guatemala (0)
                    Leg 3 - to Granada, Spain (24)
                    Leg 4 - to Andorra la Vela, Andorra (0)
                    Leg 5 - to Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina (0)
                    Leg 6 - to Split, Croatia (12)
                    Leg 7 - to Paje, Zanzibar, Tanzania (20)
                    Leg 8 - to Iringa, Tanzania (-)
                    Leg 9 - to Khumjung, Nepal (0)
                    Leg 10 - to Kathmandu, Nepal (-)
                    Leg 11 - to Xi'an, China (24)
                    Leg 12 - to Seattle, WA (3) (86)

                    I misunderstood the part with the fimish line. I thought it'd always be 27. :stare I edited it now, but it still falls below 110. :grins:

                    Just imagine a leg in St.Helena. <33 :lol: (Well, its new airport will opened in 2016, so WRP better plan a leg there!)

                    I'll do Zack's route once I'm done with my exam. <3

                    Week 3 of the challenge:
                    1.) Should have 2 legs in a place far away from the mainland. (Examples: French Polynesia for France, Greenland for Denmark)
                    2.) Should have 5 legs on capital cities.
                    3.) The number of legs in Australia & Oceania should be greater than the number of legs in Asia.
                    4.) Should visit 2 countries never visited by the US TAR.
                    5.) Should have a leg near (or at) the North Pole or South Pole.
                    I have no restrictions where the start and end has to be. ;) Be creative and thanks in advance! :cheer:

                    Okay, this route is for The Amazing Race Asia (High Budget Version lol)
                    Leg 1: Singapore, Singapore -> Perth, Australia
                    Leg 2: Hobart, Australia
                    Leg 3: Hobart, Australia -> Port Vila, Vanuatu
                    Leg 4: Port Vila, Vanuatu -> San Francisco, USA
                    Leg 5: San Juan, Puerto Rico, USA
                    Leg 6: Puerto Rico, USA -> Cayenne, French Guiana, France
                    Leg 7: Cayenne, French Guiana, France -> Recife, Brazil
                    Leg 8: Recife, Brazil -> Windhoek, Namibia
                    Leg 9: Windhoek, Namibia -> Valencia, Spain
                    Leg 10: Valencia, Spain -> Murmansk, Russia
                    Leg 11: Murmansk, Russia -> Islamabad, Pakistan (I think it's feasible :lol:)
                    Leg 12: Islamabad, Pakistan -> Singapore, Singapore

                    1.) Puerto Rico & French Guiana
                    2.) Port Vila/Cayenne/Windhoek/Islamabad/Singapore
                    3.) 3 Oceania Legs > 2 Asian Leg
                    4.) Vanuatu & Pakistan
                    5.) Murmansk, Russia (Near North Pole)

                    Also another new challenge, this time with difficulty levels  :conf:

                    EASY:
                    1. Must start and end in US with 12-13 legs.
                    2. For each country chosen as well as the Finish Line, find the last season that hosted a leg for it on TAR and note the season number. The total for your season should be less than 110.

                    For example, TAR 26 would be: 23 (Japan) + 19 (Thailand) + 22 (Germany) + 0 (Monaco) + 21 (France) + 2 (Nambia) + 21 (Netherlands) + 7 (Peru) + 5 (Dallas) = 120 and they could've easily had a leg in Slovakia instead of Bavaria.

                    Notes: a) only count places that had actual tasks or RIs (so Kenya is 0, notably), b) dependant territories should be separate from their home countries (Greenland, French Polynesia, etc) and c) separate the individual countries of the UK when calculating (though they're all pretty high so...)

                    HARD:
                    1) Start and end wherever but at least 2 continents.
                    2) Your route should have AT MOST 3 legs which take place in a country's largest city by population, with the exception of chartered transportation and microstates with only one "city" like San Marino or Andorra.

                    12 Legs -  for The Amazing Race US
                    Leg 1: Houston, Texas -> Montevideo, Uruguay (5)
                    Leg 2: Montevideo, Uruguay -> Rio Grande, Argentina (27)
                    Leg 3: Rio Grande, Argentina -> Christchurch & Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand (22)
                    Leg 4: Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand -> Busan, South Korea (17)
                    Leg 5: Busan, South Korea -> Pakse, Laos (0) (Via Thailand)
                    Leg 6: Pakse, Laos -> Osh, Kyrgyzstan (0)
                    Leg 7: Osh, Kyrgyzstan -> Beirut, Lebanon (0)
                    Leg 8: Beirut, Lebanon -> Masindi & Murchison Fall National Park, Uganda (0)
                    Leg 9: Masindi, Uganda -> Sal Rei, Cape Verde (0)
                    Leg 10: Sal Rei, Cape Verde -> Bordeaux, France (26)
                    Leg 11: Bordeaux, France -> Roseau, Dominica (0) (Via Martinique)
                    Leg 12: Roseau, Dominica -> Portland, Maine (0)

                    Total = 5+27+22+17+26 = 97
                    I think I correctly sum it up. :P

                    HARD:
                    2.) Montevideo,Beirut and Roseau

                    Hi guys, what about a wishlist with never-before visited countries/states only? Try to keep in mind diverse continents (Europe, So America, Asia, Africa), TAR's budget and keep it realistic as well. So no Syria or North Korea. :-)

                    That would be great race, right? :-)

                    That would be great race, right? :-)

                    1. Mount Rushmore, South Dakota --> Medellin, Colombia

                    2. Medellin --> Bogota, Colombia

                    3. Bogota --> Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

                    4. Punta Cana --> Bratislava, Slovakia

                    5. Bratislava --> Sofia, Bulgaria

                    6. Sofia --> Plovdiv, Bulgaria

                    7. Plovdiv --> Doha, Qatar

                    8. Doha --> Banhrain, Bahrain

                    9. Bahrain --> Male, Maldives

                    10. Male --> Kathmandu, Nepal

                    11. Kathmandu --> Luang Prabang, Laos

                    12. Luang Prabang --> Boise, Idaho

                    How about coming up with a race route assuming complete world peace, so that everywhere and anywhere is safe enough to visit?

                    Added to my wishlist: I want them to go back to the old way of doing post-leg confessionals. They used to have the teams sitting quietly in some picturesque location. Now it's always them just standing there while the camera moves all over the place like it's a 90's music video :/

                    If they ever wish to cast (half-)celebrities onto the race, I hope that they cast Nick Palatas and/or Hayley Kiyoko and/or maybe Kate Melton from the 3rd and 4th Scooby Doo movies. Or they can get the voice actors as well e.g. Mindy Cohn and/or Grey Griffin and/or Matthew Lillard.  :cheer:

                    Hi!!!! It's cold and dark at 5pm here so what better thing to do then to make a slightly less than speculative TAR 28 route  :hearts:

                    tl;dr version:
                    Show content
                    START - Los Angeles, CA
                    Leg 1 - Mexico City, Mexico
                    Leg 2 - Antigua, Guatemala
                    Leg 3 - Malaga & Granada, Spain
                    Leg 4 - Prague, Czech Republic
                    Leg 5 - High Tatras mountain range, Slovakia
                    Leg 6 - Petra National Park, Jordan
                    Leg 7 - Perth, Australia
                    Leg 8 - Mount Augustus, Australia
                    Leg 9 - Kratie, Cambodia
                    Leg 10 - Nantou County, Taiwan
                    Leg 11 - Taipei, Taiwan
                    FINISH - Los Angeles, CA

                    START - Angeles National Forest, CA
                    You may think of this as 'Los Angeles, CA' and that's okay; there's an actual reason beyond laziness. Start line challenge is either 'make a fire' or else just 'drive three hours to find LAX gl!'

                    Leg 1 - to Mexico City, Mexico
                    There are three major areas that have had a lack of coverage recently - Central America, the Middle East, and Australia. We haven't had an eastward *winter* season since TAR 20 AND the last time we had fewer than eight teams race in Oceania was TAR 9 (or 11), so we start close to home. If the Zimbabwe leg is an indication, then as long as teams are corralled enough to avoid the dangerous areas, they can race in certain less than ideal countries. House the leg entirely in Mexico City after a trip to to Teotihuacan for reasons and end it with a KOR and make up for TAR 3's okayish trip.

                    Leg 2 - to Antigua, Guatemala
                    I'm not planning on reinventing the wheel since the closest thing to Mayan culture we've gotten on TAR is the aforementioned trip to Teotihuacan (a lot of Incan heritage though...) but a standard ~jungle leg~ with the added bonus of people not dying of heat exhaustion.

                    Leg 3 - to Malaga & Granada, Spain
                    There are better ways to exhaust teams airportwise coming up, so I figure why not have a way to exhaust them through *other* means? A simple first clue of "Make your way to Granada" leads to actual Strategic Decisions (fly to Malaga? fly to Madrid? train? bus?) which continue as the leg bounces back and forth between the two cities since I couldn't decide which one I wanted to see lol.

                    Leg 4 - to Prague, Czech Republic
                    Night leg. Kafkablock Switchback.  :luvya:

                    Leg 5 - to Skalnate Pleso, Slovakia
                    TAR 28 proved that production somehow knows Slovakia exists. Rather than try to make a generic central Europe leg or simplify Slovak culture why not have the standard leg atop a Swiss mountain in the High Tatras of Slovakia instead? KOR because-

                    Leg 6 - to (Amman to) Petra National Park, Jordan
                    -I'm a terrible person :) To alleviate it this would be a sort of split leg, with an RB and ARI in Amman to separate teams enough to make departure times to Petra more contingent upon teams' abilities.

                    Leg 7 - to Perth, Australia
                    Standard beachy leg possibly with a gnome attached, and one which will hopefully make up for the product placement extravaganza from TAR 9.

                    Leg 8 - to Mount Augustus, Australia
                    Aw, you thought I was going to that other Big Red Thing? Nope :) Trains to get them reasonably close and then they get (Product Placement) vehicles, a bunch of fuel, a map, a compass, and a lot of prayer.

                    Leg 9 - to Kratie, Cambodia
                    I suspect Survivor 31 is helping a resurgence to Cambodia (if only the season weren't awful :() and I think after the previous leg, a leg in a place that is similarly rural but with different scope would be fun. NEL because I'm not heartless.

                    Leg 10 - to Nantou County, Taiwan
                    So full disclosure I was initially only having a leg here because of the Sitou Bamboo Forest and Sun & Moon Lake which are both GORGEOUS but it turns out Nantou County is a weird mix of traditional and modern and developed and wild, and has enough to do to warrant a full leg yay

                    Leg 11 - to Taipei, Taiwan
                    I don't know why we keep going to Japan in the endgame to diminishing returns (or in the beginning of the race for that matter #dotdotdothmmm) or to the same cities in China to diminishing returns (the FIRST leg in Shanghai wasn't that great, to say nothing of the second, third or fourth) when Taipei is just sort of there, having been the setting to one of the most angst-ridden and dramatic eliminations ever and a pretty fun premiere all things considered. Probably a daytime leg so that Phil can fly out immediately after checking everyone in and everyone else can take an early flight through Tokyo to their final destination-

                    Leg 12 - to Los Angeles, CA
                    I mean we've been here HOW MANY TIMES and have had, to my estimation, *two* creative, unique tasks (greeter game in 17 and the bike race in 27). Come on TAR , you can do better. Final memory task is a brainbuster in the vein of TAR 12 relying on all the various old things (Angeles National Forest, Teotihuacan, Antigua, the Alhambra, the summit in Slovakia, Petra, Mt. Augustus, the bamboo forest) visited, and ending up at the oldest thing as the finish line, the La Brea Tar Pits

                    tyfyt  :)

                    2. Melbourne --> Hobart, Australia ( via Devonport )

                    3. Hobart --> Seoul, South Korea --> Busan, South Korea

                    11. Budapest --> Reykjavik, Iceland

                    12. Reykjavik --> Minneapolis, Illinois

                    I think we could see a route like this

                    When I saw the speculations of the theme for TAR28, I was expecting people like
                    Show content
                    nigahiga, Smosh, ERB, etc.
                    , but when I saw the cast for TAR28, I'm simply excited for it. :bump

                    It would be really awesome if The Amazing Race went to the Barbados, or any country in the Caribbean for that matter. They usually go to Asia or south America first, so why not go to the Caribbean to change it up a bit. Possible have detour be either be making sugar or performing in a Tuk band.

                    At the starting line, teams run to their backpacks and open up their first clue. A fast forward clue is inside! It says: Make your way to ABC Beach (Example) to partake a volleyball competition!
                    While teams are rushing to the beach, only they know it is a nude beach and they have to play the match without having their clothes on. Team who wins this nude volleyball match can advance to
                    the 1st pit stop straight away once they have arrived at their first destination.  :conf:

                    So do you want a Starting Line FF, nude volleyball, or both? :lol:
                    Personally, I like the idea of a starting line FF. It would guarantee that a team's on the last flight, but they can pull ahead once they land.

                    Starting line Detour pls. More merit-based way of splitting teams on flights plus it's a better use for the start city esp if it's LA adjacent.

                    I wish for an inter-franchise intersection. :conf: Let's say there 9 teams from TAR Australia and 9 teams from TAR Asia (let's say they're still alive :grins: ).TAR Aus might be on the 4th leg already (11 teams, 1 NEL) while TAR Asia could be on the 2nd leg (10 teams, 0 NEL). So let's say there's a HoO, and 9 teams from both franchises camp out and socialize with each other. The next day, the clue is given to all teams, and the content can be (doesn't have to be) the same. At one point of the leg, teams will find an intersection saying that they can only join forces with teams of the other franchise. Since everybody knows how an intersection works, I'll skip to the pit stop. Both franchises can share the same pit stop, with one host being greeter and the other host taking the role of the host, then the hosts' roles depends on the franchise too.

                    My main wish is for them to have that intersection and the same HoO location. Same leg structure and same pit stop are optional but cool. :grins:

                    The wish that I have that is closest to this is what I will call the junction. A co-host is present in this imaginary race.

                    Let's say 10 teams are racing, and just at the first cluebox, there will be 2 sets of clues randomly placed in the clue envelopes.
                    Some teams will be told to go to location A where they will get the roadblock clue. The others will get the clue telling them to go to location B, where roadblock B is. After the roadblock, there will be 2 different sets of detours as well. After the detours are 2 different pit stops. Each team placement depends on the check-in time, so a team who checks in first at a certain pit stop may not necessarily win while a team who checks in last at a pit stop may not necessarily be eliminated.

                    It's a wish for me in a way, but one problem I can see is that Phil doesn't have and won't need a co-host, and there would be so much unnecessary work needed to be done just for this.

                    I believe HMLM had split legs however since they air their legs over multiple days they simply showed half the field complete their tasks then together half complete THEIR tasks, with a teams eliminated at each half.

                    Also if you're the kind of person who likes vague guidelines then here are more:
                    1) start and end in the US
                    2) 3 countries not visited in US TAR before (up to 27)
                    3) 2 countries from here (http://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en.html)

                    Alright, i added roadblocks/detours now for my previous post :yess: (but between you and me, it's just the first 4 legs)
                    Leg 1: Detour: Slider (Perform in a tuk tuk band) or Sugar (Make an x amount of sugar from sugarcane)
                    Leg 2: Roadblock: Cut, cook and eat camel meat. Detour: Arts (Teams have to follow instructions in Arabic to deliver paintings supplies to a story, they must then do the same thing, but instead deliver a painting to a client) or Crafts (Teams must help to make 3 pairs of shoes for the store clerk. What shoe it is will be determined by choice on arrival)
                    Leg 3: Roadblock: Must shoot an arrow from a specific distance in a medieval castle. Detour: Armor (Must properly clean armor at a museum from the medieval times correctly) or Farmer (Fill two baskets with spices at a local farm, only 4 teams allowed)
                    Leg 4: Roadblock: Must run around the track at Cairo International Stadium, along the way seeing different dates. After finishing one lap, they must guess which date represents the must recent win for Egypt in the African Cup of Nations [2010]. If wrong, they must run another lap. Breaks are allowed. Detour: Old (Traverse through ancient ruins, looking for their next clue) or Bold (Motorbike through the desert to an oasis where they must transport two jugs of water back. If a jug is broken/lost/empty, they must head back)
                    Again any feedback is helpful

                    What if there was a college special for the Amazing Race where 11 colleges from all over the country have 1 student and 1 professor work together on the amazing race. I'm not talking about Ivy League schools, but more like small-medium colleges like University of Wisconsin, La Crosse. The winning school is consider The Amazing College.

                    I like the idea, but don't make all the teams professor-student. Get some siblings, couples, and other mixes.

                    Also, this will be another themed season, so even if I like the idea, I might not like it happening. ???

                    If time travel is possible…

                    Leg 1:(Present) USA(Aztec) Mexico
                    Leg 2:(Aztec) Mexico(Mayan) Central America
                    Leg 3:(Mayan) Central America(Prehistoric) South America + Africa
                    Leg 4:(Prehistoric) South America + Africa(Pre-colonial) Africa
                    Leg 5:(Pre-colonial) Africa(Ancient) Egypt
                    Leg 6:(Ancient) Egypt(Pre-colonial) India
                    Leg 7:(Pre-colonial) India(Qin Dynasty) China
                    Leg 8:(Qin Dynasty) China(Far Future) Japan
                    Leg 9:(Far Future) Japan(Roman Empire) Italy
                    Leg 10:(Roman Empire) Italy(802,701 AD) UK ;)
                    Leg 11:(802,701 AD) UK(circa 9600 BC) Atlantis (assume near Atlantic Ocean)
                    Leg 12:(circa 9600 BC) Atlantis(Pre-Columbian) USA --> (Present) USA

                    I know all or most are dangerous, or some of which I can't even prove if they really exist or not, but this is just a fantasy route wish I made up if time travel is possible. Of course I doubt this happened too, otherwise we'd have Egyptian artifacts of clueboxes, Chinese artifacts of clue envelopes, etc. :funny: Sorry if this was all weird. I'm still in a SciFi-TimeTravel hangover from last week. :colors

                    Two seasons are usually recorded in a year, as long as the show maintains popularity for 2-3 more years, it is possible.

                    I really like both of them, but there might be controversy for some people for two reasons.
                    1. Not enough European nations
                    2. It goes to the Dominican Republic (Not a bad country per say, but also not the safest.)

                    Yeah. This was rather a trainwreck route that might not happen anyways on US TAR.
                    1. Yeah. That's pretty controversial for someone. But I think 3 legs of Australia/NZ legs are somewhat counter balance the Europe-less route just like how TAR2 did 4 Australia/NZ legs to compensate the no Europe visit.
                    2. Dominican Republic might not be the safest, but who knows it might get visited someday on TARUS season.

                    If WRP has had 3 legs/parts of legs in Zimbabwe, they can go to the Dominican Republic. TARLA has already been there twice for three legs. Santo Domingo and Punta Cana should be visited.  :hoot:

                    Plus dangerous countries like Mexico and Colombia was visited for TAR US upcoming season. So anything can happen except visiting North Korea and some Middle East countries. :lol:

                    Here are my roadblocks/detours/speed bumps/ and fast forwards
                    Leg 1: Roadblock 1 - Slice 10 Bamboo Sticks with a samurai sword and hit 5 targets with a bow and arrow. Roadblock 2 - Swim and feed two of 5 options of animals at the aquarium. Shark/whale shark/turtle/seal/ and Dolphin. Limit of feedings for turtle, seal, and dolphin.
                    Leg 2: Detour - Eat it up (Both team members must eat a dish of kamaro, balut, isaw manok, and longaniza) or Cook it Up (Prepare two dishes of adobo, bulalo, sinigang, and halo-halo.) Roadblock - Successfully perform a song on a kalintang with no errors.
                    Leg 3: Roadblock - Season 15 Throwback, Herd 150 ducks out of a pen, across a bridge, and back in 10 minutes only using two flags. Speed Bump - Both team members must do the roadblock. Detour - Bowl (Make 10 coconut style bowls, one of which must have a dragon painted onto it) or Race (Both team members must canoe through an obstacle course under a combined time of 4 minutes.)
                    Will try to post the next three as soon as possible.

                    Instead of being  )-** , I decided to change the speedbump in Leg 3. Now team mates must properly feed their ducks after completing the roadblock.  On to the next leg then.
                    Leg 4: Fast Forward - Both team members will scuba dive and search for 7 rocks on the ocean floor, all of them having the TAR flag symbol on them. After they find all 7, they must decipher the word, Tilapia, to receive the pit stop clue. (Note a book with a list of fish native to Madagascar will be given to them before they dive into the ocean) Roadblock - One team member must gather and deliver a wheelbarrows worth of raffia (A judge will decide when they have enough leaves.) Detour- Brain (Win a match of the traditional game, Fanorona, against a professional) or Brawn (Help a village set up mosquito nets correctly on 4 huts and then properly light a fire without flint/lighter.)

                    I always wondered if they could ever do another family edition of TAR, but have it still be two people per team. (One example is father with is son. a.k.a David and Connor) Let me get some of the arguments out of the way.

                    The kids would be too young - have kids been from ages 14-17

                    It's bad to watch a parent argue with their child and vice versa - Yes, but that happens everywhere, so why be upset that it's being shown here?

                    Kids should not go through the stress of TAR - That's why they have the physical and mental exams before picking participants. Besides, I though personally the kids did fine in season 8.

                    Kids couldn't handle going to new countries - Again, I point back to season 8 when they went to Panama and Costa Rica.

                    I'd rather they did some conventional normal seasons without any gimmicks or special themes for the sake of everyone; both RFF-league fans and casuals.

                    It would be interesting if they make a returning season but with swapped teams (but not known by teams that they will have to swap and can't cancel):

                    So,

                    Justin & Hayley.
                    Brooke & Diana
                    Tiffany & Alli
                    Krista & Kym
                    Robbie & Blair
                    Logan & Jim
                    Chris & Misti

                    Any better team combinations? I couldn't think about others so yeah.

                    2 unique, memorable final RB ideas for the final leg:

                    ROADBLOCKS:
                    Firefighting training: "Who responds faster to the sound of alarm?" - One team member has to don extrication gear and ride their assigned fire truck to a burning, 3-story fire training warehouse (three buildings spread out around the city area). Once there, they had to put on oxygen tanks & safety gear and climb the truck ladder up to the third floor. Gradually clearing the burning flames and embers, team members must cautiously walk through the smoldering warehouse down to ground level where they have to rescue a mannequin dressed as a firefighter. Smashing through the wooden door with a sledgehammer or an axe, teams must drag the mannequin out to finish the task. Team members must complete this task in less than 15 min. to receive their next (final) clue or suffer a 10 sec. penalty for every second passed the 15 min. mark. :hearts:
                    Not what I had expected, but that episode will do. :hoot: Thank you for possibly actually reading this, WRP!

                    From the TAR Unpopular Opinions thread:
                    This will be really unpopular but I look forward to seeing the interactions between Justin and Diana (if they return) and teams like Hayley and Blair (if they return)

                    I sure hope [REDACTED] season-ruiner doesn't return. :res: Them and Blair & Hayley (<3) shouldn't even be in the same scene. :lol:

                    If it means a Leg 1 U-Turn happens and Hayley U-Turns them out on Leg 1 then I would be all for it :lol:

                    A wish I have in mind now is a Leg 1 W-turn in an all-star season. The one in TAR26 was quite a fail because teams didn't even know each other. If they have it in an all-star season, teams will have to base their judgments from their original seasons, getting rid of who they would think is a big threat. The Cowboys were U-turn victims because they showed how they could easily catch up despite getting a little bad luck or making a little mistake, especially in TAR16.

                    What about another Leg 1 NE, followed by a DE in Leg 2? I liked that from Season 19. And on the second leg, have a double blind U-turn.

                    I loved that twist (although Ethan & Jenna, who had so much potential, were eliminated :/), but I would only like it to be repeated if there are 12 teams. As having a season of 11 teams and a double elimination creates 4 NELs, which I hated on S19.

                    Might create a season base off that. if anyone has suggest of places or teams, I'm all ears.

                    Custom Season 30: Part 1    (12 Teams)
                    Leg 1: Portland, Maine to Cardiff, Wales (NE, Starting line at the Casco Bay Lines Ferry Terminal where contestants must row themselves across to the other side to get their bags + clue to first location.)
                    Detour: Castles (One team member has to hit a target 5 times with a longbow, the other one has to do it with a crossbow. Once both members have hit the required amount of times, the must raise the Welsh flag on top of the castle to receive their next clue)
                    Or Ales (Teams must first gather x(3?) crates of hand gathered grapes at a local farm and deliver them to the Heart of Wales Brewery in Llanwrtyd Wells. Once there, they will receive their next clue.)
                    Pit stop: The Trout Inn, Beulah, Wales    (Castles is closer to airport, Ales is closer to pit stop)

                    Leg 2: Cardiff, Wales to Liverpool, England (DEL, Double Blind U-Turn, and a switchback :O)
                    Speed bump: The last place team must use the given clues to them to head to The Cavern Club and it is there they will receive their next clue.
                    Switchback: Who remembers how to drive to not be eliminated? (One team member will have to drive a double Decker bus through a new obstacle course with hitting any cones and successfully park to receive their next clue.)
                    Detour:Past (At a park near Waterloo, teams will have to properly dress a mannequin in a British commander outfit and show how to properly prepare a cannon. Once both items are correct, they will get their next clue)
                    Or Present (Teams must successfully complete a room escape at Clue Finders in Merseyside, Liverpool. They will get unlimited tries, each attempt is 30 minutes, and they can work with other teams to complete their task.)
                    Pit Stop: The Echo Arena in Liverpool  (10 Teams Remain)

                    Two person team FE - siblings, cousins, parents with children, in-laws, grandparents, etc.  :cheer:

                    Also TAR 29: Hopefully I get 2.5 places right edition:

                    START: San Francisco, CA

                    Starting on Alcatraz Island teams get to "break out" to staet, then search at three locations in San Francisco / Bay Area for a clue plus whatever additional task is present (Fort St. Baker is simply getting the clue, San Francisco mint is counting money, Coit Tower is climbing steps and counting them. Express Pass for the first team to finish each.

                    Leg 1: Bangkok, Thailand
                    Early Bangkok legs are pretty good and/or chaotic so why not plunge head first into SE Asia? Coin dropping switchback because why not?

                    Leg 2: Luang Prabang, Laos
                    This leg definitely exists already so...
                    Bonus: there's a motif of torturing teams before they leave a country so teams fly directly into Luang Prabang and take a 12 hour bus ride to Vientiane to leave <3

                    Leg 3: Muscat / surrounding areas, Oman
                    Oman historically causes ~calm teams~ to snipe at each other and competent teams to get lost for several hours so I can only imagine how 9 teams would fare.

                    Leg 4: Sur / surrounding areas, Oman
                    This was going to be double China but for...reasons I figure a bunch of China isn't the best thing? Fairly easy leg for production - a lot of driving around and appropriating tasks from TARA (but...better ones) and NEL because driving in the desert for several hours is a pain.

                    Leg 5: Urumqi, China
                    It's a) a new city b) not in the Pearl River Delta or near Shanghai c) that has more potential for fun racer/local interactions

                    Leg 6: Almaty, Kazakhstan
                    *torturing teams 2: teams fly into Urumqi and take a bus ride of questionable length into Almaty <3
                    Also the TAR 13 leg in that general area sucked and it sounds like the foreign edition legs aren't great either so it's overdue. I anticipated this as a summer race but a winter race and a bandy RB would be fun too <3

                    Leg 7: Pointe-Noire, Republic of the Congo
                    (Or "new African country"). I feel like a leg that describes the day to day living of a smallish coty in Africa is commonplace (fishing, mining, other less difficult forms of manual labor).

                    Leg 8: Brazzaville, Republic of the Congo
                    *torturing teams 3: teams travel by overnight train back to Brazzaville <3
                    I feel lke this show has really profound moments of reflection on global events every so often so I imagine such a task looking into the Congo's struggles through history is worthwhile even if no one shares any heritage. Plus...soccer task so teams can be shown up by teenagers <3

                    Leg 9: Barcelona, Spain / Santa Columa, Andorra
                    We haven't had a good "traditional" Spain leg (or a good Spain leg period but that's for another time) so I'd give teams cars and have most of the leg in Spain (stacking human pyramida and whathaveyou) and an ARI or RB in Andorra
                    *torturing teams 4: ...right before a KOR <3

                    Leg 10: Barcelona, Spain
                    *torturing teams and Phil: there's no bunching point between the legs; this one should go into the early morning <3
                    Also: the party-time leg that that trip to Mallorca should've been.

                    Leg 11: most of southern Iceland
                    More self-driving <3 more fairly hard physical tasks <3 snow bathing being an ARI just because <3

                    Leg 12: Minneapolis, MN
                    There's a lot of outdoorsy stuff to do and thigs to eat but the main part of the leg is a double RB: one team member gets a bunch of books from a variety of used book stores and libraries and the other categorizes them (onea having to do with the race, ones written in foreign languages, etc) with one extra book - a copy of Longfellow's poems - as the clue to the Finish Line.

                    Detour: Can ya do it? (Teams will head to Matka Canyon where they must take a boat to the Vrelo Cave. Once there, they must search for 1 of 10 chest and 1 of 10 keys [all keys open all chest]. After that, they must take the chest and key to the St. Andrew's Monastery and show it to a local monk before they can open their chest to receive their next clue.)
                    Or Can you find it? (Without seeking advice from others, teams must deliver a shield with a district's coat of arms on it to that district. If they correctly mark on a map what county their coat of arms belongs to in under 3 tries, they'll be given an address for where they must take their shield to in order to receive their next clue. Otherwise, they will be given a different shield until they get it right.
                    Pit stop: The Skopje Zoo

                    Leg 4: Skopje, Macedonia to Athens, Greece (NEL)
                    Roadblock: Who is blessed by Athena? (One team member will have to correctly plant 30 olive trees to receive their next clue.)
                    Detour: The Arts (At the Theater of Dionysus, teams must successfully preform an ancient Greek play with accurate pronunciation of the Greek words and with the correct mood.)
                    Or War (In Front of the Porch of the Caryatids, teams must first properly clean their replica armor of an ancient Greek solider. They then must correctly preform multiple military drills, restarting the whole sequence if there is a mess up.)

                    Speed bump: The last place team will have to finish an African Maasi necklace
                    Roadblock: Who sees like a hawk? (One team member will be given a pair of binoculars and be required to spot a flag off in the distance, the Flag of Meru. They then must draw the symbols on the flag for their tour guide to receive their next clue. If it looks wrong but contestants are able to explain what it's suppose to be, they'll also receive the clue.)
                    Detour: Dancing (Teams must head to the Bomas of Kenya and preform a special dance correctly to receive their next clue. However, one team member must also properly play the drums while their other partner dances)
                    Or Shopping (Teams must head to the House of Peace where they'll receive a shopping list, in Kikuyu. They then must translate and purchase the items on the list.

An envelope with $100 worth of cash will be given to them with the list.)
                    Pit stop: The Sigiria - Karura Forest (8 Teams Remain)

                    Roadblock: Who wants a race? (In Moroni, Comoros one team member will have to sail a dhow around an obstacle course in under 3 minutes. If they beat the time limit, they'll get their next clue. The first 4 to beat it will be on the first flight to Madagascar.)

                    A film-related task (hopefully with a lot of teams still in):

                    ARI:
                    Teams will pick one of the many cards which will contain a name of a genre; a movie is assigned to every genre. They will be given short roles (about 30 seconds only) and scripts. They'll be shown the original film, followed by them practicing for their roles. After practicing, it's filming time! Once the judge thinks that their role-playing is amazing, they'll receive their next clue.

                    RB: "Who can put one's self to act?"
                    Same as above, except with only one member doing it.

                    As hailing from Liverpool... That leg needs work, Liverpool has so much more to offer than setting up a cannon or doing a "Tick Tock Unlock" style game; also the original Cavern Club no longer exists unfortunately so the forced attempt with The Beatles unfortunately falls flat as well :(

                    - re: acting in LA
                    IMO the ~twist~ should be they're reenacting classic Amazing Race moments ("MY OX IS BROKEN", "LEVEL FIVE ON THE TREADMILL", "YOU'VE BEEN TALKING CRAP ABOUT US THIS ENTIRE RACE", etc)

                    - re: Blind Dating 2
                    The only way I'd accept it is if they brought the original Blind Daters back in the same couples (except Tyler & Laura because ew - just replace them with Matt & Ashley <3). Bergen and Kurt murdering each other <3 Jackie lording Jeff's experience on BB over him <3

                    Amazing Race 29 Route Wishlist: 
                    _______________

                    Starting Line ~ Los Angeles, California
                    Due to the location of my first leg and it is easier for production.

                    1. Los Angeles, California --> Queenstown, New Zealand
                    A winter leg in New Zealand with snow will be beautiful, also we haven't seen this side of NZ yet!

                    2. Queenstown --> Melbourne, Australia
                    This is a great Australia City that hasn't been visited yet, not to mention Australia is due a visit.

                    3. Melbourne --> Tasmania, Australia
                    Again Tasmania is a new Australia area.

                    4. Tasmania --> Seoul, South Korea
                    Although I'd prefer a Winter visit Seoul is an amazing City that is well overdue.

                    5. Seoul --> Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
                    The hustle and bustle of Saigon just seems a perfect fit.

                    6. Ho Chi Minh City --> Hoi An, Vietnam
                    Central Vietnam hasn't been seen since S3 and Hoi An looks Amazing!

                    7. Hue --> Cape Town, South Africa
                    Do I have to say anything!

                    Day 8. Cape Town --> Nairobi, Kenya --> Lake Nakuru, Kenya
                    First visit to Kenya! The perfect blend of City and Safari! ( I do not count S5 as a visit )

                    9. Lake Nakuru --> Bratislava, Slovakia
                    Slovakia is a new country that must have a visit, Bratislava is <3

                    10. Bratislava & Trečin, Sloavkia
                    More scenery of Slovakia with the wonderful town of Trečin!

                    11. Trečin --> Prague, Czech Republic
                    PRAGUE!!! Why haven't you been visited more? It is a MUST!!

                    12. Prague --> Chicago, Illinois
                    I'm pretty sure all my Wishlists include Chicago but it's just a wonderful place!

                    That's my wishlist, Whats yours?

                    Custom Season 31 (Only States/countries/and cities)
                    Starting Line ~ Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
                    Just cause it's a beautiful city. (I don't live here)

                    1.Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania --> Panama, Panama
                    The last time TAR went to Panama was in season 8. Just thought it'd be interesting to have contestants 'revisit' this country.

                    2. Panama, Panama --> Lisbon, Portugal

                    3. Lisbon, Portugal --> Vienna, Austria --> Bratislava, Slovakia

                    4. Bratislava, Slovakia --> Skopje, Macedonia
                    It's a new country.  :cmas18

                    5. Skopje, Macedonia --> Cairo, Egypt

                    6. Cairo, Egypt --> Alexandria, Egypt

                    7. Alexandria, Egypt --> Astana, Kazakhstan
                    Another New country, I'm on a role.  :cmas32:

                    8. Astana, Kazakhstan --> Karagandy, Kazakhstan

                    9. Karagandy, Kazakhstan --> Hong Kong, China

                    10.Hong Kong, China --> Shanghai, China

                    11. Shanghai, China --> Vancouver, Canada

                    12. Vancouver, Canada --> Seattle, Washington or Gardiner, Montana
                    Gardiner is one of the cities that is outside of Yellowstone National Park, just thought it'd be interesting to have contestants do challenges relating to where some of America's most famous natural landmarks are.

                    I like your idea, BritishTARFan.

                    The Amazing Race 29 wishlist (filming will likely to start in May to June 2016):

                    Starting line: Los Angeles, California (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Traditionally, its the standard race start city. Starting line probably be in Rose Bowl at Pasadena where they must take a public transportation by train to LAX.

                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b9/Flag_of_Australia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia.svg.png)
                    A beautiful Australian city that hasn't yet to visit, and the country's first winter visit in TAR that is long overdue. Destinations for the leg include Old Melbourne Gaol and Federation Square.

                    Leg 2: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b9/Flag_of_Australia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia.svg.png)
                    A double leg in one single city. Places could visit for the leg are Brighton Beach, Queen Victoria Market and Royal Exhibition Building.

                    Leg 3: Seoul, South Korea (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Flag_of_South_Korea.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Korea.svg.png)
                    Seoul hasn't had a full leg and its overdue many times as well. Tasks will include the homage of "Gangnam Style" in the famous Gangnam district.

                    Leg 4: Da Nang/Hoi An, Vietnam (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Vietnam.svg/22px-Flag_of_Vietnam.svg.png)
                    Central Vietnam hasn't been a visited for a long time since TAR 3.

                    Leg 5: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Vietnam.svg/22px-Flag_of_Vietnam.svg.png)
                    Whether the producers decide to choose for a train ride to the large city, bus is more longer and much faster.

                    Leg 6: Zanzibar, Tanzania (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Flag_of_Tanzania.svg/22px-Flag_of_Tanzania.svg.png)
                    Hasn't visited since TAR 11 and it's a beautiful island. Thoroughly will be in the urban region of Zanzibar like the cities of Old Zanzibar (Zanzibar City), plus a visit of Freddie Mercury's childhood home known as Mercury House, in which that hasn't had a Sub-Saharan urban metropolis leg since TAR 17.

                    Leg 7: Zanzibar, Tanzania (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Flag_of_Tanzania.svg/22px-Flag_of_Tanzania.svg.png)
                    The leg will be taking place in rural Zanzibar just not quite far from Zanzibar city, ala second Indo leg of TAR 23, second Moroccan leg of TAR 25 and first PH leg of TAR 25 as well.

                    Leg 8: Stockholm, Sweden (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4c/Flag_of_Sweden.svg/22px-Flag_of_Sweden.svg.png)
                    Last time, TAR visited Stockholm in season 15 and we have to get a proper Stockholm leg. The places could be going include Vasa Museum, Stockholm City Theatre and Drottingholm Palace. Tired of overused countries such as France, Germany, Netherlands and Switzerland.

                    Leg 9: Riga, Latvia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/Flag_of_Latvia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Latvia.svg.png)
                    It's a new country and the only unvisited Baltic nation remain in the Race, a way long overdue.

                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.svg.png)
                    Beautiful Spanish city that hasn't visited in US TAR. Tasks to be included like playing football (soccer). It's way better than Barcelona and Seville.

                    Leg 11: Dublin, Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.svg.png)
                    Dublin is one of major cities in the British Isles has not yet visited. Ireland last visited in TAR 12 and that is also overdue, it's a beautiful city with great culture such as Guinness, Leprechauns and other tourist spots. A penultimate leg in Europe since TAR 24.

                    Leg 12: San Francisco/Napa, California (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    After the three previous visits in San Fran took place in winter, it's time to get the city for its summer finale. Plus, the finish line in California's popular wine region.

                    I would like to see a U-turn (or a yield if it could be resurrected) wherein it was not stated in any previous clue. I'd call it the surprise U-turn! :cmas16

                    It could make some teams happy and surprised especially if they wanna get rid of another team all of a sudden, or it could surprise teams in a bad way by not giving them enough time to strategize.

                    Taking up BritishTARFan's idea, here's my view of TAR 29 aka "We need to make a cheap race after 27 and 28"

                    START: Niagara Falls, NY
                    FE throwbacks <3 Visually great starting lines <3 If you're thinking "wouldn't it be difficult to have a starting line task at the falls" then

                    Leg 1: to Toronto, Canada
                    Teams are given (product placement) vehicles and are told to have at it to get to Toronto initially but then are forced at some point to use public transportation <3 I feel like the CN Tower can be used as an RB (climb the thing then rappel back down <3) and I imagine there's some sort of BINGO like task involving Toronto's multiculturalism; really anything to disguise the fact that it's Toronto y'know?

                    Leg 2: to Mumbai, India
                    Given the second Agra leg of 27 this miiiight not be a great idea but there has to be something to counter the ease of getting around Toronto and really, having India so early on is probably the easiest way of doing this (cf TAR Australia 2 though they had a leg in the Philippines in between.

                    Leg 3: to Khumjung, Nepal
                    From an insurance perspective TAR can't get too close to Everest but there's a lot of things to do with the primary school attached, sherpa culture, and the fact that teams will have to hike everywhere. NEL because I'm not awful.

                    Leg 4: to Kathmandu Valley (Bhaktapur), Nepal
                    Much of the leg is in Kathmandu but I figure if fitbit is sponsoring the race then a city with no taxis, rickshaws or any motor vehicles of any sort is the perfect place to visit.

                    Leg 5: to Kabale, Uganda
                    Standard rural African leg, featuring tea, coffee, pack animals and the occasional gorilla ( :cmas18). NEL because it's a giant bottleneck to get here.

                    Leg 6: to Lake Victoria (Jinja), Uganda
                    We haven't really had an urban Subsaharan metropolis leg since TAR 17 so...here we are ^_^

                    Leg 7: to Athens, Greece
                    Given the last visit to Greece was a) in TAR 9, b) during the winter, c) rainy, and d) an awful leg there's nowhere to really go but up? The FF can stay though; that was a good task  :cmas9

                    Leg 8: to Plovdiv, Bulgaria
                    New countries <3 Not immediately going to the largest / capital cities (okay teams fly into Sofia and travel by land to Plovdiv but still!) <3 Given how old the city is there's potential for MANY legs based on the variety of cultures found in its history but I'm just here for one for now. :)

                    Leg 9: to Luxor / Aswan, Egypt
                    Cairo is probably a No Go for insurance purposes but I suspect the 1-2 punch of Luxor and Aswan (complete with train rides down the Nile so that Phil can get a jump on teams) is a nice way to have a leg about ancient Egypt

                    Leg 10: to Bath, England
                    Given that TAR seems to have a leg in the UK every 3-5 seasons this would be the appropriate time for such a leg. While the main draw is having a pit stop on the Royal Crescent (https://www.google.com/search?q=camden+crescent&safe=off&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjC6Kzeu_jJAhWJPiYKHaJKCgYQ_AUICCgC&biw=1905&bih=917#safe=off&tbm=isch&q=royal+crescent) there's fun to be had with baths and tasks regarding Jane Asuten and Charles Dickens. If all else teams can drive to Glastonbury and act out some of the Arthur-related legends  :cmaslol

                    Leg 11: to San Juan, Puerto Rico, USA
                    ...and just when you thought this route wasn't going to cut costs lol. Penultimate legs in Latin America tend to be great (18, 19, 26) or else from TAR 7 which is awful in nearly every aspect, and so I imagine this keeps with tradition <3

                    Leg 12: Austin, TX
                    I feel like precedent would suggest that I finish in Los Angeles but I feel like the only way we're going to get Austin (which is a sufficiently developed and unique city but without good long-distance flight connections) is to set up for a short flight from the penultimate city. Tasks involving Whole Foods (<3), Austin's large amount of live music, and general weirdness will lead to a Switchback of the TAR 12 memory task where teams have to cobble together random things because why not?

                    I thinking of an All Star Season (Season 30) with 13 teams, consider this is the biggest All Stars Special Season:

                    Amazing Race 25:
                    1. Adam and Bethany
                    2. Kym and Alli
                    3. Shelley and Nici

                    Amazing Race 26:
                    4. Hayley and Blair
                    5. Aly and Steve
                    6. Jeff and Jackie

                    Amazing Race 27:
                    7. Justin and Diana
                    8. Tanner and Josh
                    9. Denise and James Earl
                    10. Ernest and Jin

                    I am leaving 3 empty spots for Season 29, and also I'm not considering Season 28 which is "Social Media Celebrities Season" because I don't think it's necessary for them to race again TBH, so this is my wishlist for the next All Stars.

                    Custom Season 31 (Only States/countries/and cities)
                    Starting Line ~ Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
                    Just cause it's a beautiful city. (I don't live here)

                    1.Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania --> Panama, Panama
                    The last time TAR went to Panama was in season 8. Just thought it'd be interesting to have contestants 'revisit' this country.

                    2. Panama, Panama --> Lisbon, Portugal

                    3. Lisbon, Portugal --> Vienna, Austria --> Bratislava, Slovakia

                    4. Bratislava, Slovakia --> Skopje, Macedonia
                    It's a new country.  :cmas18

                    5. Skopje, Macedonia --> Cairo, Egypt

                    6. Cairo, Egypt --> Alexandria, Egypt

                    7. Alexandria, Egypt --> Astana, Kazakhstan
                    Another New country, I'm on a role.  :cmas32:

                    8. Astana, Kazakhstan --> Karagandy, Kazakhstan

                    9. Karagandy, Kazakhstan --> Hong Kong, China

                    10.Hong Kong, China --> Shanghai, China

                    11. Shanghai, China --> Vancouver, Canada

                    12. Vancouver, Canada --> Seattle, Washington or Gardiner, Montana
                    Gardiner is one of the cities that is outside of Yellowstone National Park, just thought it'd be interesting to have contestants do challenges relating to where some of America's most famous natural landmarks are.

                    Not to ruin your christmas, but they visited Kazakhstan in season 13, but they visited Almaty. TAR Norge also visited Almaty in the first season  :cmas16 So you can say it´s first time they visit Astana  :cmaslol

                    Also, Panama had a leg in s19

                    I thinking of an All Star Season (Season 30) with 13 teams, consider this is the biggest All Stars Special Season:

                    Amazing Race 25:
                    1. Adam and Bethany
                    2. Kym and Alli
                    3. Shelley and Nici

                    Amazing Race 26:
                    4. Hayley and Blair
                    5. Aly and Steve
                    6. Jeff and Jackie

                    Amazing Race 27:
                    7. Justin and Diana
                    8. Tanner and Josh
                    9. Denise and James Earl
                    10. Ernest and Jin

                    I am leaving 3 empty spots for Season 29, and also I'm not considering Season 28 which is "Social Media Celebrities Season" because I don't think it's necessary for them to race again TBH, so this is my wishlist for the next All Stars.

                    That was a good choice...  <3

                    IMO... I don't mind if there are some returnees for TAR 28 if the racers delivers

                    Mostly good choices, but I'd have Tiffany and Krista in season 27 come back over Justin and Diana only because they had never one a race compared to the seven Justin and Diana won. Would also bring back Chester and Ephraim from season 23 because they had so many flight issues in leg 3 that they had to be told they were eliminated at the airport.

                    What if we had a second-chance season like in survivor? And maybe we could vote for team from all seasons (like how CBS got Kimmi who people never dream of seeing again 15 years later!). Only rule would be that this teams never raced twice, and they didn't win:

                    My guess: (my pick in bold)

                    (1): Frank and Margarita (even if they are not together anymore, would be soo cool to see them again)
                    (2): Tara and Will (same as ^)
                    (2): Blake and Paige
                    (3): Ken and Gerard
                    (3): Derek and Drew: The Wonder Twins
                    (4): Kelly and Jon
                    (4): Tian and Jaree : got eliminated in India because they were the only girl to do the task
                    (5): Collin and Christie: of course!
                    (5): Linda and Karen: The bowling mom
                    (5): Kami and Karli: Blond twins
                    (6): Kris and Jon
                    (6): Hayden and Aaron: now they are parents
                    (6): Lena and Kristy: Poster child for second chance
                    (7): Meredith and Gretchen: if they are not too old to do it
                    (9): Joseph and Monica
                    (9): Fran and Barry
                    (10): Lynn and Karlyn: first FF to be in finale 3
                    (10): Erwin and Godwin: The cho brothers
                    (12): Nathan and Jennifer
                    (13): Ken and Tina
                    (13): Toni and Dallas: A given also
                    (14): Mark and Michael
                    (15): Sam and Dan
                    (15): Maria and Tiffany
                    (16): Brent and Caite
                    (16): Carole and Brandy
                    (16): Louis and Michael
                    (16): Jeff and Jordan
                    (17): Brook and Claire: Lock if they are not preggo
                    (17): Jill and Thomas
                    (19): Armani and Marcus
                    (19): Andy and Tommy
                    (19): Bill and Cathi: Yes
                    (20): Art and JJ
                    (20): Bopper and Mark  : because they didn't really race twice together
                    (21): Jaymes and James
                    (22): Max and Katie
                    (22): Mona and Beth
                    (23): Tim and Marie
                    (23): Travis and Nicole
                    (25): Misti and Jim
                    (25): Adam and Bethany
                    (25): Kym and Alli
                    (26): Hayley and Blair
                    (26): Mike and Rochelle
                    (26): Matt and Ashley
                    (27): Justin ad Diana
                    (27): Tiffany and Krista
                    (27): Tanner and Josh

                    and we would need to add 28 and 29!!! thats a lot of teams haha

                    Love your idea, stunami. The second-chance version of TAR is much like Survivor, but a similar theme with Unfinished Business. That could be for TAR 29/30. Not including TAR 8 teams that which is a 4-person team race.

                    If either the producers will pick a pool of 25 potential candidates and 11 or 12 teams to be selected for participate.

                    I would also include Eric and Lisa from Season 15 in the next All Stars! It would be good if the production cast them, they deserve a second chance! Plus, I even dreamed they entered the F3, but they got 2nd overall.  :cmaslol

                    3: Derek and Drew
                    4: Kelly and Jon
                    5: Colin and Christie
                    6: Kris and Jon
                    10: Erwin and Godwin
                    10: Lyn and Karlyn
                    12: Nathan and Jennifer
                    13: Toni and Dallas
                    15: Maria and Tiffany
                    15: Sam and Dan
                    16: Jeff and Jordan
                    17: Chad and Stephanie
                    17: Brook and Claire
                    19: Andy and Tommy
                    20: Joey "Fitness" and Danny
                    21: Jaymes and James
                    23: Tim and Marie
                    25: Keith and Whitney
                    25: Kym and Alli
                    26: Bergen and Kurt
                    27: Tiffany and Krista
                    27: Justin and Diana

                    That will leave two empty spots for any racers from TAR 28 (because that season's theme will be a "social media season") that either of them will be chosen to participate.

                    Custom Season X (Only States/Countries/ and Cities)

                    Starting Line ~ San Antonio, Texas
                    Have contestants start at The Alamo and possibly due a challenge relating to the wild west before leaving like in season 19

                    1. San Antonio, Texas --> French Polynesia
                    I didn't put down a specific island because there are numerous ones that contestants could go to and many sights/things to do. Possibly also have a switchback to the sand castles. >: D

                    2. French Polynesia --> Manila, Philippines
                    Although they did have contestants go here in season 25 (And also possibly season 28), it's still one of the lesser nations that have been visited in Asia.

                    3. Manila, Philippines --> Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
                    It was only visited once in season 10. Maybe have contestants help people in Nomadic Mongolia.

                    4. Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia --> Moscow, Russia
                    Just Cause

                    5. Moscow, Russia
                    Because there is always a leg where contestants stay in the country from the last leg. Or at least all the legs I've seen. (Yes, I sadly haven't watched every leg)

                    6. Moscow, Russia --> Skopje, Macedonia
                    I really want them to go to Macedonia.

                    7. Skopje, Macedonia --> Athens, Greece --> Rome, Italy
                    Because who doesn't love the ancient Romans and Greeks?

                    8. Rome, Italy --> Corsica, France
                    It's the birth place of Napoleon, so possible Napoleonic War themed detours and/or roadblock.

                    9. Corsica, France --> Barcelona, Spain
                    I've run out of excuses for these things. I just wish I could be in the race and go to these places.

                    10. Barcelona, Spain --> Marrakesh, Morocco --> Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain
                    It's a city on one of those Islands off the coast of the Western Sahara and Morocco. It's actually quite interesting.

                    11. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain --> Halifax, Nova Scotia
                    Because Hockey. Also shout out to jlim201 for suggesting this first.

                    12. Ottwa, Canada --> Washington D.C.
                    what better place to end a trip about traveling around the world than to end in our own capital? (The UN, but they've already been there. Not ended, but the last roadblock was there.)

                    Final pit stop, National Museum of Natural History

                    TAR dabbled with these themes in TAR 9 (Italy, Greece) and TAR 24 (Italy). The results were less than impressive. (Also TAR 6 visited Napoleon's birthplace...only to do one of two physical Detours barely related to Corsica)

                    Also the Natural Museum of Natural History has no place indoors large enough to house the finish line so you'd have to have it on the National Mall and while that would certainly be the best location of the final mat it would probably be spoiled as they were filming (<3). fwiw there are a bunch of places in Rock Creek Park or Thomas Jefferson Island that would make for great finish lines  :cmas16

                    Your probably right about the finally pit stop area. (Was trying to think of a museum that would have something relating to other countries). but maybe fans could pitch ideas for gladiator ideas and Napoleonic wars? For example, contestants could have to either recite a scene from an ancient Greek play in Greek (obviously) and have correct pronunciation or plant X amount of olive trees at a nearby farm (to relate to the Greek story of Athena bringing olives to Athens) and eat 20 olives each (just cause food challenges are hilarious to watch.) Yeah, these suggestions probably suck, but I bet someone else could come up with a better idea.

                    Mass eaing tasks tend to be untelegenic BUT forcing teams to eat a bunch of grape leaves or BAKLAVA (or even better, RB with one person making it and an ARI of them eating it) would be fun.

                    Custom Season X (Now with tweaks/they are in the descriptions of legs)

                    Starting Line ~ San Antonio, Texas
                    Same reason as last time, possible western theme challenge at start like in Season 19

                    1. San Antonio, Texas --> Tahiti, French Polynesia
                    This time I chose a specific island. Very beautiful, has multiple places to visit for challenges like Mont' Orohena or the obvious Pacific ocean for another water related challenge.

                    2. Tahiti, French Polynesia --> Manila, Philippines

                    3. Manila, Philippines -->  Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia

                    4.  Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia --> Moscow, Russia --> Sofia, Bulgaria
                    Possibly have connecting flights or have contestants due a roadblock before getting tickets to Bulgaria. Places could include Boyana Church, St. George Rotunda, and St. Sofia Basilica.

                    5. Sophia, Bulgaria --> Plovdiv, Bulgaria
                    Same reasoning as I had for the Russian one. Destinations can include the Rila mountains, Forum of Philippopolis, and the Trakart Center.

                    6. Plovdiv, Bulgaria --> Skopje, Macedonia

                    7. Skopje, Macedonia --> Cairo, Egypt OR Athens, Greece
                    I'm still debating if I should include at least two African countries in this custom season. I'll let you guys decide because I'd be fine seeing either of these cities reappearing again.

                    8. Cairo, Egypt OR Athens, Greece --> Corsica -->  Marseilles, France
                    Started to debate if Napoleon idea was a really good idea, so decided contestants should go on a cruise to Southern France. (From Corsica of course ;) )

                    9.Marseilles, France --> Barcelona, Spain
                    This is where they can drive and win (sponsored car here)

                    10. Barcelona, Spain --> Marrakesh, Morocco
                    Felt having contestants travel to small islands off the coast of Africa would be a challenge for them and the production crew.

                    11. Marrakesh, Morocco --> Barbados OR Trinidad and Tobago
                    Because waiting for them to visit another Caribbean nation after season 25 is Jamaican me crazy. Also these island nations have not been visited yet.

                    12. Barbados OR Trinidad and Tobago --> Washington D.C.

                    Final Pit Stop, Theodore Roosevelt Monument on Theodore Roosevelt Island
                    Because it's a beautiful sight and Roosevelt was a 'GREAT' diplomat.

                    Made this route based off of a unique idea for a final memory challenge.

                    Leg 1: Crater Lake, Oregon --> Nagoya, Japan
                    Because California starting lines are boring. Eleven teams. No starting line twist, just paddle across the lake and have fun driving to Portland.
                    In Nagoya, have some detour regarding feudal Japan. Then drive themselves to the Mt. Fuji area for a skydiving roadblock. And why not end it by driving yourself to Tokyo with some form of 'giant wacky obstacle course' roadblock? 1st place gets a nice Express Pass!

                    Leg 2: Tokyo, Japan --> Phnom Penh, Cambodia
                    Because Southeast Asia is <3 After a self driving leg with 2 roadblocks and a detour, teams will get some relief by staying in the city for some RI tasks, and end it with a detour at a wildlife center or zoo, perhaps? 1st place gets a nice Express Pass(assuming they don't have one already)! There's also the first of three fast forwards on this leg.

                    Leg 3: Phnom Penh, Cambodia -> Pattaya, Thailand
                    Teams bus it to Thailand and head out into it's rural side. The Face-Off makes its American debut, and the second FF is here.

                    Leg 4:Rayong, Thailand -> Thimphu, Bhutan
                    A new country, and a new twist - Teams must swap members for the detour segment! Have it be a non-elimination though. Challenges can relate to Buddhism.

                    Leg 5: Thimphu, Bhutan -> Moscow, Russia
                    It's been a few seasons. After getting to know the competition, teams get a chance to Blind U-Turn somebody. But this right here is a Double Leg!

                    Leg 6: Moscow, Russia -> Volgograd, Russia
                    Teams will now have to catch a train to Volgograd, where the last fast forward resides. This'll be a hard labor leg.

                    Leg 7: Volgograd, Russia -> Khiso, Georgia
                    Georgia is a beautiful country, and here teams will get a chance to trek alongside its gorgeous landscape. End the leg in Akhmeta. The Express Pass must be used by the end of this leg.

                    Leg 8: Akhmeta, Georgia -> Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
                    It's been a long time since we've been to Ethiopia, and it's about time for a safari leg! The Bale Mountains National Park is a beautiful area, and I would not mind teams spending all day there. Oh, and there's a Double U-Turn.

                    Leg 9: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia -> Monrovia, Liberia
                    Yeah yeah, I know that whole 'Ebola' thing just happened, but just stay with me here. A route info task will have teams headed to a Vai school where they will learn to survive in the wilderness, and learn to write the language of the Vai people. But first, a second face-off will ramp up the competition between our remaining teams.

                    Leg 10: Monrovia, Liberia -> Agadir, Morocco
                    Part beach leg, part food leg. Detour includes riding the waves or selling some trinkets. A roadblock has teams precisely preparing a couscous dish. At the end of this leg only three teams are left. What does that mean?

                    Leg 11: Agadir, Morocco -> Pangnirtung, Nunavut, Canada
                    3 Teams on the penultimate leg? Hell yeah! After making it to Pangnirtung (this might take a while), teams will immerse themselves in the creative nature of the town by helping make some prints by lithography. They will then head to the local high school, where the next clue will be given in Inuktitut, and they will have to figure out what it says by using a syllabic chart. When they can recite the clue to the teacher, they will give them the real clue telling them to head by helicopter to Auyuittuq National Park. Here, one team member will climb part way up a cliff to retrieve the next clue. Teams will then helicopter back to Pangnirtung, where they will find the pit stop at the southern outskirts of the town. Of course, this is a Non Elimination.

                    Leg 12: Iqaluit, Canada -> Boston, Massachusetts
                    Teams were moved to Iqaluit over the duration of the pit stop. After a luge challenge at the old Winter Games Arena, teams fly to the final destination, Massachusetts. Once In Boston, they must head to where Griffins Wharf once stood (Independence Wharf) and search for their next clue. The clue leads them to the Boston Tea Party Museum, where one team member must re-enact part of the Boston Tea Party in a play. Once they've done this correctly, they will be given the next clue. This will direct them to the One Federal Street building, where teams must repel down a side of the building, while searching for their next clue. It's located at Fort Independence, where helicopters are waiting to take teams to Long Point Beach on Provincetown by Cape Cod. Here they will find the final memory roadblock (in detail below). When it's finished, they can run a mile and a half to the finish line, at the tip of Long Point Beach.

                    Final Roadblock:
                    How well do you remember the script?

                    One team member must remember the countries they visited around the world and the dominant non-latin writing systems they encountered while there. First they most correctly order the countries by hanging signs with the name of each country on top of a long display, which they can reach by ladder. Once they are correctly ordered, they’ll be able to unlock a safe. Inside the safe are heavy stone slabs, each with a rough translation of the phrase 'Amazing Race' carved into them for each of the scripts they encountered, plus five extra scripts. They must lift the slabs into the display. When they can match the scripts with the countries they’ve visited they can run to the Finish Line.

                    The scripts in order are:
                    Katakana
                    Khmer
                    Thai
                    Dzongkha
                    Cyrillic
                    Georgian
                    Ethiopic
                    Vai
                    Arabic
                    Inuktitut

                    Pattaya is not rural at all lol. It's even more developed than some area in Bangkok. But I'd love to see a leg in Pattaya or other eastern part of Thailand. (Rayong/Trat/Chantaburi/Koh Chang/Koh Samet) I don't understand why they keep going back to Phuket. While the eastern part is even more easier to access and also have beautiful coastal area to build a leg.

                    Custom Season XX (With locations and roadblocks) (Because why not make more than one dream race?)

                    Starting Line ~ Fenway Park

                    1. Boston, Massachusetts --> Monrovia, Liberia
                    Who won't quilt til the end? One team member will have to bike to a local cotton farm where they must help one of the farmers finish a bushel of cotton. After that, the team member will have to pedal back to where they had originally gotten their clue and exchange the cotton for a custom made quilt. The next location will be on the quilt. (Why quilts? They are an important aspect of Liberian culture.)

                    2. Monrovia, Liberia --> Tunis, Tunisia
                    Switchback: Remember to not be afraid of the dark, one team member hadsto light a torch and, with some basic instructions, navigate the ancient arena to find the Pit of Death. Then, they have to retrieve a sword dangling above the pit, find a way out of the maze of tunnels, then bring it to the Pit Stop. Then, teams have to slide the sword into the sheath to finish the leg.

                    3. Tunis, Tunisia --> Milan, Italy --> Zurich, Switzerland
                    Roadblock 1: Who'll be a knight in shinning armor? One team member will have to dress fully in medieval armor. Then they will have to do three different tasks. 1. Hit three targets with either a crossbow or bow and arrow. 2. Successfully decapitate a scarecrow with a two handed sword. 3. Raise and lower a metal gate without dropping it.
                    Roadblock 2: Who's ok with getting a little bit cold? One team member will have to either snowboard or ski with a guide down a hill. They'll have to spot a flag along the way down where their next clue is hidden. If they don't get it, they'll have to go down the hill again.

                    4. Zurich, Switzerland --> St. Gallen, Switzerland
                    Good direction is the key to success here. One team member will have to use a compass and a map in German and snowshoe up a mountain to a lounge where they must deliver a bottle of brandy. After taking a shot at the lounge, they can get their next clue. They'll have to snowshoe back to their partner.

                    5. St. Gallen, Switzerland --> Helsinki, Finland
                    Who wants to be involved in the local sports? One team member will have to carry a volunteer in wife carrying, one of the local sports of Helsinki. After going through the obstacle course, they'll receive their next clue.

                    6. Helsinki, Finland --> Moscow, Russia --> Tashkent, Uzbekistan
                    Roadblock TBD

                    7. Tashkent, Uzbekistan --> Dhaka, Bangladesh
                    Who's ready to shop? One team member will be given a list of supplies needed to help a local orphanage. The only problem, all of the items are in the local language. Once they think they've gathered all of the items, they'll have to bring them back to the orphanage. $100 dollars worth of cash will be given, however ALL the money the team has on them must be donated like in season 19.

                    8. Bangladesh
                    Roadblock: Who wants soar? One team member will have to para glide while the other follows them in car, kinda like the one in season 27 in Brazil.

                    9. Bangladesh --> Sydney, Australia
                    Roadblock 1: This one requires musical talent. One team member will have to play a full scale on a didgeridoo with only one breath in between. They'll then have to put musical sheets in order at the Sydney opera house. The papers will be on the outside of the building and contestants will only be able to bring in one sheet at a time. once the order is correct, they'll receive their next clue. If not, they'll have to continue switching papers.
                    Roadblock 2: Which of you barneis (inexperience surfers) wants to go on a dawn patrol (Surf early in the morning)? In the morning, one team member will have to last 30 seconds either surfing or kite boarding without falling off their ride.

                    10. Sydney, Australia
                    Who wants to face rocky? One team member will get to climb up a section of the blue mountains with a guide. There will be dummy clues along the way. If a contestant opens a dummy one, they must climb back down and start all over again. (One person at a time)

                    11. Sydney, Australia --> Oamaru, New Zealand
                    Something with Zip-lining, Rappelling, or the Blue Penguins.

                    12. Oamaru, New Zealand --> San Francisco --> San Jose, California
                    Roadblock TBD, Probs something relating to memory. Make suggests please.

                    Custom Season XX (Fast Forwards for all legs and Detours. Note that this doesn't mean that there has to be a Fast Forward for every leg, it just gives the production crew, if they are reading this than I say hi, a choice of where the Fast Forwards should be.)

                    1. Boston, Massachusetts --> Monrovia, Liberia
                    FF: Any team wanting the express pass will have to paddle by kayak to Balli Island across the Mesurado River. Once they get to the marked spot, they'll have to solve 3-5 riddles. (E.X. Who has a house to small for guest? A turtle. My father's suit is made of holes. A fishing net.)
                    Detour: Cook (Contestants will have to properly prepare 3 dishes, Jollof Rice, Sweet Potatoe Pone, and lemon Grass Tea.)
                    Or Eat (Both team members will have to eat a dish of Cooked Zebra, Eggplant Stew, and Fufu with a spicy sauce on it.)

                    2. Monrovia, Liberia --> Tunis, Tunisia
                    FF: Teams wanting this pass will have to travel to Hammamet, Tunis and used photos given to them to figure out that they have to go to Friguia Park. Once there, they'll have to take a picture of three animals, all of their names be given to the teams in Latin. Once they give the park director the correct photos, they'll receive the fast forward. (which could be in Hammamet as a twist unless switchback is used)
                    Detour: ground (Teams will have to navigate the catacombs of Tunis to look for their next clue.)
                    Or Water (Teams will ahve to paddle their way to Fort Santiago to receive their next clue hidden within the fort.)

                    3.Tunis, Tunisia --> Milan, Italy --> Zurich, Switzerland
                    FF: Teams will have to arrive at three different landmarks, Arco Della Pace, Castello Sforzesco, and the middle of Sempione Park where they'll be given one word to remember as well as what order the word is in the phrase. (Veni, Vidi, Vici) If the phrase is given correctly to a Leonardo Da Vinci impersonator in Sempione Park, they'll receive the FF. Note: Can require contestants to translate the phrase into English, I came, I saw, I conquered.

                    4. Zurich, Switzerland --> St. Gallen, Switzerland
                    FF: As a throwback to season 3, teams who attempt to receive this FF will have to eat enough pieces of Swiss Cheese from a massive cheese wheel.
                    Detour: Cell (Teams will have to fine a specific wine bottle in a wine cellar. Then, they'll have to travel to the location which is in the wine bottle and travel there to receive their next clue.)
                    Or Sold (Contestants will have to make $60 worth of Francs by selling chocolate at a vendor.)

                    5. St. Gallen, Switzerland --> Helsinki, Finland
                    FF: Teams will travel to the Helsinki Ice Hall where both team members will have to make a goal on a professional hockey goalie. The only problem is teams will only be able to do this FF if they get to this location on foot.
                    Detour: For both options, teams will head to the Linnanmäki amusement park.
                    Thrill (Teams will have to go on 5 marked amusement park rides) Or Skill (Teams will have to beat 1 of 5 marked carnival stalls. Anyone who partakes in this task do not have to pay to play the stalls, however they must show their passport to show that they are official apart of the race. Only 5 clues can be given in this detour option, one per a stall.)

                    Part 1 finished. Any ideas? I'm all ears and will give credit to suggestions.

                    Season 32: Theme (Military Personnel)

                    Starting Line ~ SS American Victory Mariners' Memorial and Museum Ship
                    What better place to start honoring our veterans than by starting at a memorial to them? There are probably some better ones.

                    Leg 1: Tampa, Florida --> San Fernando, Trinidad and Tobago

                    Leg 2: San Fernando, Trinidad and Tobago --> Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

                    Leg 3: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil --> Cape Town, South Africa

                    Leg 4: Cape Town, South Africa

                    Leg 5: Cape Town, South Africa --> Amsterdam, Netherlands

                    Leg 6: Amsterdam, Netherlands --> Hamburg, Germany
                    Please have them visit Miniatur Wunderland

                    Leg 7: Hamburg, Germany --> Berlin, Germany

                    Leg 8: Berlin, Germany --> Stalingrad, Russia

                    Leg 9: Stalingrad, Russia --> Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia

                    Leg 10: Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia --> Akita, Japan

                    Leg 11: Akita, Japan --> Sendai, Japan

                    Leg 12: Sendai, Japan --> Victoria, Canada --> Seattle, Washington

                    Finish Line ~ Capitol Campus
                    Anyone up for the idea of military personnel only?  ???

                    I'm sure one could extend it to former military personnel as well; you'd get more old people, parent-child teams, other teams that aren't just athletic friend teams or what have you.

                    Also I always thought the USS Arizona would make for a great finish line if filming were allowed.

                    Also also: The Amazing Race 29 - Food and Drink edition

                    START: WRP Headquarters, Marina Del Ray, CA because starting lines don't matter lol (in reality like...Catalina Island)

                    Leg 1: to Schwende Canton, Switzerland
                    Swiss summer <3 I'd have teams fly to Zurich for an ARI or Detour before giving them cars and having them slowly make their way here (http://aescher-ai.ch/aescher-en.html), with a stop along the way for a food related RB. The cable car creates some potentially awkward bunching but I figured a KOR would make up for it.  :cheer:

                    Leg 2: to Minsk, Belarus
                    So while I knew I wanted a country that was a part of the former Soviet Union I figured Russia and Ukraine were both Really Bad Ideas and that certain other countries would be visited in TAR 28 so here we are ^_^. One of my co-workers who married a Belarusian assures me that travel isn't as insanely bureaucratic as history suggests and that the people are friendlier so that's really all the incentive I need. PLUS there are plenty of trains out to the next destination...

                    Leg 3: to Kaunas, Lithuania
                    Baltic leg <3 I don't know the viability of an ambergris-harvesting FF but I figure that the first Lithuanian leg was hilariously generic (in fact...possibly most generic leg ever?) and so there's a lot of leeway with tasks.

                    Leg 4: to Athens, Greece
                    GREEK SUMMER <3 I know the show doesn't really deal with mass-eating challenges or mass-baking challenges for that matter but I'd only go here on the condition that there's a baklava-related task. Bonus if there's a FF based on this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhDgpXWkFHE) with the difficult part convincing people to join teams <3

                    Leg 5: to Lefkara, Cyprus
                    While it would seem this is just a cheap way to get people in swimtrunks or else interacting with drunk locals there's plenty of time for that later ( :snicker:) so teams can presently focus on detail-oriented tasks like cutting lace and making jam and other pastries ^_^

                    Leg 6: to Musoma, Tanzania
                    Mainly for black-and-white footage of Colin dying trying to eat an ostrich egg <3 That said, there's still plenty of agricultural and animal-related hell that teams can encounter here (hopefully it makes up for the subpar legs from TAR 5 and TAR 20 in the similar region). NEL because again - making up for TAR 5 and TAR 20.

                    Leg 7: to Zanzibar, Tanzania
                    ...speaking of making up for previous seasons, Zanzibar! As it turns out there's more to do there then solve puzzles (which can be done anywhere), haul logs (ditto) and throwing rungus at objects (which can be done anywhere in East Africa) and I'd like to reflect that.

                    Leg 8: to Sylhet, Bangladesh
                    Bangladesh often (always) gets used during the summer and the legs are actually not bad (in TAR 21 the AWFUL Indonesia legs overshadowed the fact that the Bangladesh legs were not terrible, just indistinguishable) but the problem is it always tends to focus on overcrowded, industrial Dhaka. In contrast, Sylhet is peaceful and green, which is perfect for teams to freak out as they pick tea leaves. ^_^

                    Leg 9: to Khumjung, Nepal
                    I've probably written about this leg before - sherpa culture, teaching or feeding adorable sherpa elementary school children, lengthy hikes - but it still works. NEL.

                    Leg 10: to Jeju Island, South Korea
                     There's a looooot of grumbling about a leg in South Korea and while I initially wanted two legs in Vietnam and Cambodia since they get bad raps, the possibility of Phil and the Pit Stop being amidst a stretch of phallic statues is too hilarious a mental image to ignore.

                    Leg 11: to Seoul, South Korea
                    Hilariously long ferry ride to get teams into Seoul at night, followed by strange food, singing, dancing, fun locals, and difficult tasks because it *is* leg 11.

                    Leg 12: to San Francisco, CA
                    Start off with a side trip to Napa (eliminating any extra teams in the process) for grape crushing, then a leg in San Francisco proper dealing with the glut of cultures and cuisines represented, leading up to the final memory task; a 12-course meal consisting of foods encountered during the race.

                    Food and drink would be interesting, but I think people would complain that it's too much like Fear Factor. (Which I will agree with you is as dumb of a complaint as most teens are too irresponsible to compete.)

                    1. Seattle, Washington --> Port Villa, Vanuatu
                    2. Port Villa, Vanuatu --> Sydney, Australia (NEL)

Once a team has successfully preformed this dance through the duration of the song they will be given their next clue) Or Chance (Teams will also have to make their way to Ramon Magsaysay Park in this detour. In it, teams will have to play a traditional game known as Bati-Cobra. Both team members will have to successfully hit and catch the short stick 3 times. Meanwhile other participants will try to catch the short bamboo stick as well so that they can go up to bat. Once the task is fulfilled, the team will receive their next clue).

                    Detour 2: Eagle (Teams will make their way to the Philippine Eagle Center where they must preform take a picture of the eagles there. The only problem is that only 4 of the eagles there will have a yellow and black or yellow and red bandanna on, so teams will have to take a picture of each of the 4 marked eagles without any blur. After that, they will have to properly hand feed an eagle to receive their next clue) Or Sea Gull (Teams will have to make their way to [insert a beach/fishing port here] where they will have to catch a fish in three different styles. Their options are cage, net, fishing pole, and spear. Once they have gotten the three fish in three different styles, they'll receive their next clue).

Leaving the rock results in a 30 minute penalty. Not finding the clue in the allotted 15 minutes will result in the team member having to head back to the dock and wait for the next boat [30 minutes] to try again).

                    Pit Stop: Japanese Peace Pagoda/Rumasalla Mountain (Pagoda is on mountain. NEL)

                    End of Part 1. Will take suggest for Active Route Infos and modify post to have suggestions.

If they judge believes that the treats have been properly made, teams will receive their next clue. It is not required to eat the finished treat, but it is allowed.

                    Detour: [Both tasks require teams to head towards one of the two farms that is tbd]

Once they find the right cup of tea, they will receive their next clue.)
                    Or Spice up My Life (Teams will make their way to a different farm where they will have to harvest X amount of spice [more than Tea Time to compensate for the easier task after hand]. Then, each team member will have to organize four types of spices into separate bags. [Spices are pepper, cardamon, betel, and lemongrass.] Once complete, they'll receive their next clue).

Once they judge thinks they have properly played the piece, they can receive the next clue).

                    Detour: [Both detours Start at the Bale Mountains National Park]

                    That's true, but at least it's not as bad as a dancing or standing still for $ detour.

                    Can't sleep so I attempted a TAR 30 bound by what CBS usually does and what people usually complain about:

                    START: Joshua Tree National Park, CA
                    LA start BUT because of how flights are set up leaving LAX for points west, I figure this would be a time to give teams a Detour in LA so that the first flight separation is due to skill more than luck driving around LA.

                    Leg 1: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
                    While I *liked* the half-leg in Kuala Lumpur in That One Season I feel like every leg needs to be redeemed in some way so here we are ^_^

                    Leg 2: Kathmandu, Nepal
                    Because georgiapeach keeps insisting upon it. Fairly short, stress-free leg to contrast with the possible chaos of KL and lead up to...

                    Leg 3: Khumjung, Nepal
                    So I did the math and, assuming that no one is severely unfit, teams can make the hike to and from Lukla and still fit the filming schedule but only if this leg ends with a KOR  :cheer:

                    Leg 4: Mumbai, India
                    After TAR 27 there aren't any Rape Trains but there's still everything you need for teams to get Killer Fatigue really quickly.

                    Leg 5: Sigulda, Latvia
                    Not only is it weirdly unvisited (you'd think Latvia would fit in, say, 21 instead of Turkey) but it's relatively inexpensive and has a lot of cool cultural things even if the leg itself is going to trend towards 'fun sport things'

                    Leg 6: Malmo / Gothenburg, Sweden
                    aka the leg in which I hate the racers:
                    - teams travel by ferry from Riga to Stockholm
                    - teams "make their way" to Malmo
                    - then teams drive ~500 km up Sweden, doing Product Placement Car tasks and whathaveyou, finishing in Gothenburg (and then someone is eliminated :()

                    Leg 7: Aksum, Ethiopia
                    Why have we not gone back here yet?

                    Leg 8: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
                    See above PLUS the timing is right for this leg to start in the afternoon, which gives us, if I'm thinking correctly, the first nighttime urban African leg <3

                    Leg 9: Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina
                    ...in order to make up for the expensive trip to Sweden and the one that will follow shortly plus I think Bosnia in general works as a summer destination.

                    Leg 10: Split, Croatia
                    Standard "here's a fun leg on the beach that actually sucks sorry!" leg.

                    Leg 11: Toronto, Canada
                    BAM. RB involving climbing up that tower thing, ARI involving a game of Multicultural Bingo, and various other assorted vaguely Canadian tasks <3

                    Leg 12: Seattle, Washington
                    Again - how have we NOT finished here yet, especially with the number of west-to-east seasons filmed in summer that we've gotten recently? I feel like structurally this would be similar to the TAR 27 leg, where there's an ARI / Detour in Seattle (probably involving sustainability or coffee or fish) and midleg elimination if needed, then a ferry ride to the scenic San Juan islands for another ARI / RB / ARI and the finish along one of the beautiful capes above the Puget Sound. Given the number of artisans on the island the final memory task could be like Canada 2 where they have to match the artwork to each leg.

                    Can't sleep so I attempted a TAR 30 bound by what CBS usually does and what people usually complain about:

                    START: Joshua Tree National Park, CA
                    LA start BUT because of how flights are set up leaving LAX for points west, I figure this would be a time to give teams a Detour in LA so that the first flight separation is due to skill more than luck driving around LA.

                    Leg 1: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
                    While I *liked* the half-leg in Kuala Lumpur in That One Season I feel like every leg needs to be redeemed in some way so here we are ^_^

                    Leg 2: Kathmandu, Nepal
                    Because georgiapeach keeps insisting upon it. Fairly short, stress-free leg to contrast with the possible chaos of KL and lead up to...

                    Leg 3: Khumjung, Nepal
                    So I did the math and, assuming that no one is severely unfit, teams can make the hike to and from Lukla and still fit the filming schedule but only if this leg ends with a KOR  :cheer:

                    Leg 4: Mumbai, India
                    After TAR 27 there aren't any Rape Trains but there's still everything you need for teams to get Killer Fatigue really quickly.

                    Leg 5: Sigulda, Latvia
                    Not only is it weirdly unvisited (you'd think Latvia would fit in, say, 21 instead of Turkey) but it's relatively inexpensive and has a lot of cool cultural things even if the leg itself is going to trend towards 'fun sport things'

                    Leg 6: Malmo / Gothenburg, Sweden
                    aka the leg in which I hate the racers:
                    - teams travel by ferry from Riga to Stockholm
                    - teams "make their way" to Malmo
                    - then teams drive ~500 km up Sweden, doing Product Placement Car tasks and whathaveyou, finishing in Gothenburg (and then someone is eliminated :()

                    Leg 7: Aksum, Ethiopia
                    Why have we not gone back here yet?

                    Leg 8: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
                    See above PLUS the timing is right for this leg to start in the afternoon, which gives us, if I'm thinking correctly, the first nighttime urban African leg <3

                    Leg 9: Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina
                    ...in order to make up for the expensive trip to Sweden and the one that will follow shortly plus I think Bosnia in general works as a summer destination.

                    Leg 10: Split, Croatia
                    Standard "here's a fun leg on the beach that actually sucks sorry!" leg.

                    Leg 11: Toronto, Canada
                    BAM. RB involving climbing up that tower thing, ARI involving a game of Multicultural Bingo, and various other assorted vaguely Canadian tasks <3

                    Leg 12: Seattle, Washington
                    Again - how have we NOT finished here yet, especially with the number of west-to-east seasons filmed in summer that we've gotten recently? I feel like structurally this would be similar to the TAR 27 leg, where there's an ARI / Detour in Seattle (probably involving sustainability or coffee or fish) and midleg elimination if needed, then a ferry ride to the scenic San Juan islands for another ARI / RB / ARI and the finish along one of the beautiful capes above the Puget Sound. Given the number of artisans on the island the final memory task could be like Canada 2 where they have to match the artwork to each leg.

                    I think Latvia would fit for TAR 29 visit that makes the Baltic combo will complete, as its way long overdue since the start of HD-era.

                    A night time African leg will be an awesome one! :trampb: Something like this that'd come into my mind is Madagascar: A night by the baobabs and the beach. :colors

                    I like this route, but I think there are 5 new countries, if I'm not mistaken (Ivory Coast, Bahamas, Bhutan, Myanmar and Papua) so I don't think they would visit so many new countries...

                    Well, I said I planned on making a full scale race, so here it is. Or at least, leg 1.

                    Leg 1: San Jose, US of A --> Beijing, China

                    Starting Line ~ Alum Rock Park

                    Route Info: Teams will have to board one of three flights to Bejing, China. Once there, they'll have to make their way to Beihai Park. Once there, they'll have to a draw # for when the park opens. Then they can start looking for their next clue.

                    Detour: Teams will have a choice between Tea Time or Free Time
                    Tea Time: Teams will have to make their way to the Laoshe Tea House where they'll have to perform two different tasks. (One person per task) 1. Set up a Gongfu tea table for display including accessories as well as pour tea properly into the display 2. Prepare tea for the display. Once both tasks are done, they'll receive their next clue.
                    Free Time: Teams will make their way to JingShan Park where they'll have to finish creating a traditional Chinese kite. Once it is approved by a judge, teams will have to keep their kite flying in the air for 3 minutes. (Constantly moving) Oce the three minutes are up, they'll receive their next clue.

                    Route info: Teams will have to make their way to the Great Wall of China to receive their next clue just outside of the entrance to the park.

                    Detour 2 (Throwback: Teams will have a choice of Flat or Steep
                    Flat: Teams will have to walk to a long, flat path to a far away marked pavilion for the next clue.
                    Steep: Teams will have to take a much shorter but extremely steep path to the closer marked pavilion for the next clue.

                    Pit Stop:  Teams will have to make their way to the Summer Palace for the pit stop. (NEL)

                    The next returnee season will probably be The Amazing Race 30 with teams from The Amazing Race 25-29.  However, if it's 11 teams, fans should vote for two teams (not including winners) from each of the 5 seasons while CBS will pick the 11th team randomly.

                    I hope it's not just from TAR 25-29, because there are a lot of teams pre-25 that deserve a second chance.

                    TAR 29 60/40 speculated / wishlist
                    (that is, 60% speculation with 40% wishful thinking; you'll be able to tell which)

                    Looking at the big picture, TAR 27 and 28 are both eastward races and the last time we've had three "normal" eastward races (ie crossing Atlantic and Pacific) was TAR 4-5-6 (no I am not joking) sooo I'm assuming a westward season. Given that TAR 28 marks three seasons in a row with South America, I'm leaning towards South America being out but since it's looking like 4-5 continents is the trend, I suspect we're getting one of Africa or Oceania. We've had Oceania "winter" all of once in 28 seasons but more importantly, the last three times we went to Oceania it was at the start of the race so I think we're getting endgame Australia / NZ for TAR 30.

                    In other words, a Europe - Africa - Asia - North America race.

                    START: Los Angeles, CA
                    I mean whatever. If the live starts have shown anything it's that it takes a lot to set up a start line or a finish line which means for convenience LA is being used at least *once* and LA works far better to facilitate westward seasons so here we are.

                    Leg 1: Banff National Park, Canada
                    ...except we're technically starting by going northeast  :funny: With TAR only being officially renewed for *one* season, the pressure is on to make a good looking route for less, so they can pour their money into the winter season which will likely get them an Emmy / renewal. Thus a leg in ~exotic~ Canada, starting with teams flying to Canada, drunkenly singing at Whiskey Dix, and getting on one of two charter buses to Banff which arrive the next day for plenty of first leg adventure tasks.

                    Leg 2: Calgary, Canada
                    TAR Australia and TAR Canada have shown that there's juuuuust enough to warrant a leg in Calgary so here we are. I figure teams could make the drive to Calgary to start out and work their way around from there.

                    Leg 3: Kanagawa prefecture, Japan
                    In other words - teams fly into Narita, then drive themselves back and forth from Yokosuka (for the first RI plus a FF involving surviving 15 minutes here (http://wikitravel.org/en/File:YRP_Anechoic.JPG)) and Yokohama for the Detour and RB and back to Yokosuka for the Pit Stop. I feel like it would be a very nice industrial leg and we don't get many 'modern' industrial legs in Asia or many good legs in Japan so we'll knock two birds out.

                    Leg 4: Mandalay, Myanmar
                    A fairly 'easy' leg (counting arhats, puppet shows, gold leaf and bronze work) to get teams into Myanmar, partly because the previous leg would take roughly 3 days to film and partly because it'll end with a KOR and then an overnight bus to

                    Leg 5: Yangon, Myanmar
                    Mainly for convenience though Yangon is unique to TAR in that unlike many cities it's more of a developing city; to that end tasks would reflect the city's shift towards modernity (construction-related task, trading task) and the impact of young people (read: skateboarding RB)

                    Leg 6: Mauritius
                    Much like the TAR 10 leg teams would be given adorable cars and WRP's insurance information in order to drive around the entire island, playing with tortoises and sugar cane and possibly even beaches? While I could've easily chosen, say, the Comoros, Mauritius is so well-connected that it saves a lot of time and manages to dodge a lot of the areas visited on the previous three seasons of TAR.

                    Leg 7: Alexandria, Egypt
                    Provided the leg is run in the day (an extended Pit Stop will guarantee it), there's no major risk to running a leg in Alexandria and, in fact, you could have a very profound leg investigating Alexandria throughout the ages, counting and identifying the numerous statues of historical figures, helping with the antiquities of ancient Egypt and of course going through that giant library - by "profound" of course I mean "Emmy bait".

                    Leg 8: Petra National Park, Jordan
                    ...but just in case racers don't get the memo, here's more obvious Emmy bait. Teams arrive in Amman in the evening and take charter buses to the entrance of Petra, where one team member gets to escort camels while the other carries a gnome of some sort and then they run around the complex without hopefully contracting heat stroke in the process.

                    Leg 9: Venice, Italy
                    Of the major countries in Europe that TAR tends to visit, Austria was visited the farthest back in time (granted, in summer AND I assume this to be a budget-heavy race so I'll ignore it), followed by the UK and Italy and, of the two, Italy lends itself to cheap racing / accommodations, even if it is in Venice. A nighttime leg opens the doors for romance and sniping as teams have to play gondoleer and cook <3

                    Leg 10: San Marino
                    I feel like there would be room for another short leg and while Slovenia and Bled was tempting, I figured San Marino probably won't have many opportunities to be raced in so why not now? Teams would drive to Rimini and the surrounding areas for the majority of tasks before entering San Marino for one last task and the Pit Stop.

                    Leg 11: Dakar, Senegal
                    penultimate African legs yay! In addition to being a giant curve ball to teams racing in mostly developed countries and also Myanmar and in addition to having a Switchback readily available (bonus points if we can force women to do it <3) it has a fairly nice flight plan to get teams to their final destination

                    Leg 12: Atlanta area, GA
                    I can't speak for everyone but I found the TAR 19 leg there to be a disappointment, with the map task overhyped, the typewriter task overstated in terms of the difficulty and the only draw being the flight simulator which everyone finished in the first five minutes lol. Finish line somewhere in or on top of Stone Mountain. Teams would arrive at noon and given that it's the middle of summer, have plenty of time to finish the leg before sunset even though if the past few seasons are an indication the tasks are hard enough to make this a moot point.

                    tl;dr

                    Leg 1 - Los Angeles, CA to Banff National Park, Canada
                    Leg 2 - to Calgary, Canada
                    Leg 3 - to Yokosuka, Japan
                    Leg 4 - to Mandalay, Myanmar
                    Leg 5 - to Yangon, Myanmar

                    Leg 8 - to Petra National Park, Jordan
                    Leg 9 - to Venice, Italy
                    Leg 10 - to San Marino, San Marino
                    Leg 11 - to Dakar, Senegal
                    Leg 12 - to Atlanta, GA

                    4 continents, 9 countries (3 new, 3 only visited once) and 26,000 miles and fitting 22 days / 12 shows as production wants.

                    As even so, New Zealand was last visited in TAR 22 and had its winter visit in TAR 13, although was actually filmed in Southern Hemisphere autumn (or fall called in US and Canada). We haven't had a winter Australia (the continent itself in Oceania) leg in US TAR and that hasn't visited since TAR 18 (as the last four Aussie visits were all occurred in hot summer) that could get Australia as the first destination.

                    As it contrast with TAR 23, TAR 24, TAR 26, TAR 27 and TAR 28 traveled to first destination city due to winter filming.

                    Btw you put Newcastle, Australia instead of Christchurch for leg 2, I've done that before :funny:. Also unless there is a change of schedule S30 would take place in New Zealand's summer.

                    Hopes For Season 29!

                     contrary to what I've previously said i don't think Oceania will be visited although it is possible, like Zach mine will be based off logic and wish!

                    Starting Line: Los Angeles, California (Walt Disney Concert Hall) - LA is logical and easy for the budget, I can't believe the Concert hall has never been visited. (apart from TARFRANCE)

                    1. Los Angeles, California 🇺🇸 --> Seoul, South Korea 🇰🇷
                    This country needs to be seen more, Seoul is a wonderful diverse location that must be visited, I need Some K-Pop & Kimchi  :funny: Pitstop at Cheongyechong.

                    2. Seoul & Jeonju, South Korea 🇰🇷
                    A modern roadblock in Seoul maybe on the K-Pop scene before heading to the small city of the Jeonju, The birth of the bibimbap. A detour on Bibimbap would be awesome!

                    3. Jeonju, South Korea --> Hoi An, Vietnam 🇻🇳
                    Fly to Da Nang before experiencing the old city of Hoi An, a night leg would be amazing including setting lanterns onto the river.

                    4. Hoi An, Vietnam --> Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    How long do we need to wait! We haven't properly seen Angkor yet! Also Gamer I'm fulfilling your wish of Cambodia + South Korea  :funny:

                    5. Siem Reap, Cambodia --> Kathmandu & Pohkara, Nepal 🇳🇵
                    If Nepal is visited i may cry of happiness. Kathmandu for culture and religion and Pohkara for thrill.

                    6. Pohkara, India --> Kruger National Park, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    South Africa! Flight to Joburg before transfer to KrugerNP, the safari leg.

                    7. Johannesburg, South Africa --> Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    CAPE ******* TOWN! You MUST be visited! Also pitstop transportation to Johannesburg from Kruger. Please Pitstop at Table Mountain's peak.

                    8. Cape Town, South Africa --> Athens & Delphi, Greece 🇬🇷
                    Greece hasn't been visited since S9! Im hoping for a roadblock at the ancient Delphi and a pitstop at the acropolis. In S9 they somehow missed all the famous sights  :stare

                    9. Athens, Greece --> Budapest, Hungary 🇭🇺
                    Do i have to explain. Its just a stunning city that is in need of a visit!

                    10. Budapest, Hungary --> Bratislava & Trenčin, Slovakia 🇸🇰
                    Slovakia is a lovely underrated country which deserves a visit. Pitstop at Trenčin castle.

                    11. Trenčin, Slovakia --> Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦
                    The most liveable city! Cool vibes of Vancouver for a stressful leg. Possible transfer to Vienna for flight.

                    12. Vancouver, Canada --> Seattle, Washington 🇺🇸
                    Self drive to Seattle is pretty awesome. Visit the world oldest Starbucks!  :trampb: :funny:

                    4 Continents
                    10 Countries
                    18 Cities
                    2 New Countries
                    8 New Cities


                    Tl;DR.

                    SL. Walt Disney Concert Hall, Los Angeles, California

                    1. Seoul, South Korea 🇰🇷
                    2. Seoul & Jeonju, South Korea 🇰🇷

                    I would LOVE to see Egypt, but is it possible for TAR to visit that country?
                    The main areas to avoid in Egypt from what I gather are Cairo, the entire Sinai Peninsula and I thiiiiink Luxor? Cities like Alexandria are safe with the general precautions production has taken in other vaguely unsafe cities (read: race in daylight, Pit Stop to get teams released in daylight)and cities like Aswan and Hurghada are fine barring standard issues (pickpockets, scammers)

                    Plus if teams can race in Mexico and Colombia despite active travel warnings I see no issue with *one* leg in Egypt.

                    As on my first real wishlist post on page 120, Zack's suggestion would be the definite route plan for TAR 29:

                    Original post is clickable

                    Show content
                    Starting line: Los Angeles, California (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Traditionally, its the standard race start city. Starting line probably be in Rose Bowl at Pasadena where they must take a public transportation by train to LAX.

                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b9/Flag_of_Australia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia.svg.png)
                    A beautiful Australian city that hasn't yet to visit, and the country's first winter visit in TAR that is long overdue. Destinations for the leg include Old Melbourne Gaol and Federation Square.

                    Leg 2: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b9/Flag_of_Australia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia.svg.png)
                    A double leg in one single city. Places could visit for the leg are Brighton Beach, Queen Victoria Market and Royal Exhibition Building.

                    Leg 3: Seoul, South Korea (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Flag_of_South_Korea.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Korea.svg.png)
                    Seoul hasn't had a full leg and its overdue many times as well. Tasks will include the homage of "Gangnam Style" in the famous Gangnam district.

                    Leg 4: Da Nang/Hoi An, Vietnam (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Vietnam.svg/22px-Flag_of_Vietnam.svg.png)
                    Central Vietnam hasn't been a visited for a long time since TAR 3.

                    Leg 5: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Vietnam.svg/22px-Flag_of_Vietnam.svg.png)
                    Whether the producers decide to choose for a train ride to the large city, bus is more longer and much faster.

                    Leg 6: Zanzibar, Tanzania (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Flag_of_Tanzania.svg/22px-Flag_of_Tanzania.svg.png)
                    Hasn't visited since TAR 11 and it's a beautiful island. Thoroughly will be in the urban region of Zanzibar like the cities of Old Zanzibar (Zanzibar City), plus a visit of Freddie Mercury's childhood home known as Mercury House, in which that hasn't had a Sub-Saharan urban metropolis leg since TAR 17.

                    Leg 7: Zanzibar, Tanzania (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Flag_of_Tanzania.svg/22px-Flag_of_Tanzania.svg.png)
                    The leg will be taking place in rural Zanzibar just not quite far from Zanzibar city, ala second Indo leg of TAR 23, second Moroccan leg of TAR 25 and first PH leg of TAR 25 as well.

                    Leg 8: Stockholm, Sweden (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4c/Flag_of_Sweden.svg/22px-Flag_of_Sweden.svg.png)
                    Last time, TAR visited Stockholm in season 15 and we have to get a proper Stockholm leg. The places could be going include Vasa Museum, Stockholm City Theatre and Drottingholm Palace. Tired of overused countries such as France, Germany, Netherlands and Switzerland.

                    Leg 9: Riga, Latvia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/Flag_of_Latvia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Latvia.svg.png)
                    It's a new country and the only unvisited Baltic nation remain in the Race, a way long overdue.

                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.svg.png)
                    Beautiful Spanish city that hasn't visited in US TAR. Tasks to be included like playing football (soccer). It's way better than Barcelona and Seville.

                    Leg 11: Dublin, Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.svg.png)
                    Dublin is one of major cities in the British Isles has not yet visited. Ireland last visited in TAR 12 and that is also overdue, it's a beautiful city with great culture such as Guinness, Leprechauns and other tourist spots. A penultimate leg in Europe since TAR 24.

                    Leg 12: San Francisco/Napa, California (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    After the three previous visits in San Fran took place in winter, it's time to get the city for its summer finale. Plus, the finish line in California's popular wine region.

                    Route map: http://i.imgur.com/B0Ov8b1.png (http://i.imgur.com/B0Ov8b1.png)

                    Like in the current twenty-eighth season as Zack said, it will be a 4-continent race where Zack will be happy to praise this.

                    Starting line: Langham Huntington Hotel, Pasadena, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png) - This would be the first time the race will start in a luxury hotel.

                    Leg 1: Seoul, South Korea (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Flag_of_South_Korea.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Korea.svg.png)
                    Seoul hasn't had a full leg and its overdue many times as well. Tasks will include the homage of the popular K-Pop genre like "Gangnam Style" in the famous Gangnam district.

                    Leg 2: Suwon/Yongin, South Korea (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Flag_of_South_Korea.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Korea.svg.png)
                    Teams will have a glance on the second Korean leg near Seoul. Tasks explore on its national dishes: Kimchi and Bibimbap.

                    Leg 3: Da Nang/Hue, Vietnam (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Vietnam.svg/22px-Flag_of_Vietnam.svg.png)
                    Central Vietnam hasn't been a visited for a long time since TAR 3. This bi-city duo could be hosting in a single leg like Hong Kong/Macau in TAR 27. Marble Mountains is a good place to visit with scenery cavern rocks. Hue is getting convenience with the latter's former imperial capital, notable tourist attractions are Khai Dinh Tomb and Imperial City. The latter was last seen in TAR 3 in which arranging seven coins representing from emperors of imperial Nguyễn dynasty deriving from TAR Asia 3 and TAR Australia 1. Da Nang area will be hosting the first half (probably the Detour), while Hue will be the Roadblock and the Pit Stop.

                    Leg 4: Vientiane, Laos (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/56/Flag_of_Laos.svg/22px-Flag_of_Laos.svg.png)
                    This one of countries in Southeast Asia has never visited the Race before due to relations with its Buddhist religion. Vientiane is a good place to visit many Buddhist temples. Pha That Luang would be a good location as a Pit Stop.

                    Leg 5: Bangalore, India (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/41/Flag_of_India.svg/22px-Flag_of_India.svg.png)
                    After a numerous visits of repeated Indian cities, the race would be thrilled on a never visited Indian city to explore the view of the south-central region of India. Hindu temples would be fantastic and cool.

                    Leg 6: Stone Town, Zanzibar, Tanzania (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Flag_of_Tanzania.svg/22px-Flag_of_Tanzania.svg.png)
                    Hasn't visited since TAR 11 and it's a beautiful island. Thoroughly will be in the urban region of Zanzibar like the cities of Old Zanzibar (Zanzibar City), plus a visit of Freddie Mercury's childhood home known as Mercury House, in which that hasn't had a Sub-Saharan urban metropolis leg since TAR 17.

                    Leg 7: Pwani Mchangani/Pingwe, Zanzibar, Tanzania (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Flag_of_Tanzania.svg/22px-Flag_of_Tanzania.svg.png)
                    The leg will be taking place in rural Zanzibar just not quite far from Zanzibar city. Tasks will be taking place on a beaches of Unguja island (Zanzibar's populous island) like building traditional dhow boat. This scene would be good to pick for a Emmy nominee.

                    Leg 8: Stockholm, Sweden (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4c/Flag_of_Sweden.svg/22px-Flag_of_Sweden.svg.png)
                    Last time, TAR visited Stockholm in season 15 and we have to get a proper Stockholm leg. Of one of major European countries to visit, Sweden is a great place to hear. Teams could be going to Vasa Museum, Stockholm City Theatre and Drottingholm Palace. Tasks will have to eat Surströmming (Swedish sour herring) within one plate, just what it did in HaMerotz LaMillion 4.

                    Leg 9: Riga, Latvia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/Flag_of_Latvia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Latvia.svg.png)
                    It's a new country and the only unvisited Baltic nation remain in the Race, a way long overdue. Latvia is more opportunity and great place to come.

                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.svg.png)
                    Beautiful Spanish city that hasn't visited in US TAR. Tasks to be included like playing football (soccer). El Escorial monastery would be a great place to visit. It's way better than Barcelona and Seville.

                    Leg 11: Dublin, Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.svg.png)
                    Dublin is one of major cities in the British Isles has not yet visited. Ireland last visited in TAR 12 and that is also overdue, it's a beautiful city with great culture such as Guinness, Leprechauns and other tourist spots. A penultimate leg in Europe since TAR 24.

                    Leg 12: San Francisco/Napa, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    After the three previous visits in San Fran took place in winter, it's time to get the city for its summer finale. The final challenge (memory task) will make teams to search a bottle of wine with a flags being attached in each 9 bottles visited the race. The finish line will be in the famous Castello di Amorosa.

                    LIST

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, CA, USA - Seoul, South Korea

                    Map: http://www.rome2rio.com/trip/gizwkjpw

                    4 continents

                    28,000 miles
                    Will fit for a 22-23 day race in contrast with most TAR seasons occur on 3/4 continents.

                    ^Love that route, but San Francisco is over visited. I would suggest Chicago, since it also has that Irish connection  :)

                    New Season 30 Wishlist (This one is better planed. also, the city I put down does NOT mean challenges take place in the city, that's just where they fly/go to.)

                    Starting Line ~ Flushing Meadows Park

                    Leg 1: New York, New York --> Dublin/Shannon Ireland
                    As Far as I know, it's been only visited once. Would be interesting to see more from this country.
                    Pit Stop: Dromoland Castle

                    Leg 2: --> Budapest, Hungary
                    Same as Ireland reason.
                    Pit Stop: Fisherman's Bastion

                    Leg 3: --> Milan, Italy --> (Via Train) Venice, Italy
                    There has to be a least one country that's visited a lot in Europe and Asia, so here's the European one.
                    Pit Stop: St. Mark's Square

                    Leg 4: --> Alexandria, Egypt
                    They only went to Egypt once but Morocco and Tanzania 3 times :(. This must be changed.
                    Pit Stop: Montazah Palace Gardens

                    Leg 5: --> Nairobi, Kenya
                    Another awesome country in Africa that's only been visited once. (Not that any country in Africa is 'bad')
                    Pit Stop: Karura Forest or near Safari area

                    Leg 6: --> Doha, Qatar
                    Had to put at least one new country in the list. Helps with transition to Asia.
                    Pit Stop: The Corniche

                    Leg 7: --> Chennai, India
                    It would be a sin to not put either China or India on the list.
                    Pit Stop: TBD

                    Leg 8: (Suggested by rafael02) --> Kolkata, India
                    Pit Stop: Victoria Memorial

                    Leg 9: --> Osaka, Japan
                    Just Cause

                    Leg 10: --> Kyoto, Japan
                    Pit Stop: Rokuon-ji Temple

                    Leg 11: --> Apia, Samoa

                    Leg 12: --> San Diego, CA

                    I really want a snow leg in Oceania in season 29.
                    All I want for Season 29 is a damn Winter New Zealand leg in the South Island! We aren't just beautiful during the summer! XD
                    Adding myself into wishing this.
                    Winter + Australia & Oceania =  :luvya:

                    Recently, I've been to South Korea, and it's a really nice place. :hrt: After that experience, I wish to see it being visited by TAR. :conf: Hopefully they'll visit it soon.



                    There should be a season where they visit all the New7Wonders of Nature. :colors :luvya:
                    • Amazon Rainforest & River
                    • Jeju Island
                    • Halong Bay
                    • Iguazu Falls
                    • Puerto Princesa Underground River
                    • Komodo Island
                    • Table Mountain



                    Also, I wanna see a leg where they go around a huge mall or amusement park for 1 to 2 tasks or for the whole leg.

                    I'm not sure if Ha Long Bay will ever be visited again for an exotic feature leg. ??? TAR10 topped it with the strenuous rowing + hosting the most interesting/entertaining tasks available to perform there.

                    Besides the disappointing roadblock in Armenia for TAR28, I believe Armenia and Georgia have more to show.

                    TAR should go back to those countries after a while! :hoot: :hoot: :hoot:

                    Season 30 wishlist (probably a second chance themed race, 27 candidates (9 M/M, 9 F/M and 9 F/F per production) to be part in the voting poll that will be decide for 11 chosen finalists by fan-vote).

                    Link for S29 wishlist: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1157745.html#msg1157745

                    Starting line: Solvang, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Beautiful Danish landscape in the Pacific coast with cozy architecture.

                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b9/Flag_of_Australia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia.svg.png)
                    Tasks will involve with cricket and rugby (both popular Australian sports in which Melbourne is Australia's sporting capital). Pit Stop probably in Federation Square. Australia is really an overdue and was last visited in season 18.

                    Leg 2: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b9/Flag_of_Australia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia.svg.png)
                    This leg involving airplane acrobat task in a town of Lilydale, northeast of Melbourne. Pit Stop will be in Royal Exhibition Building.

                    Leg 3: Taipei, Taiwan (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/Flag_of_the_Republic_of_China.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_Republic_of_China.svg.png)
                    Involves making sky lanterns. Pit Stop at Taipei Astronomical Museum.

                    Leg 4: Penang, Malaysia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Flag_of_Malaysia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Malaysia.svg.png)
                    This Malaysian island state is home of multicultural activities and historical landmarks. It will include involving shipping tasks.

                    Leg 5: Siem Reap, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png)
                    Revisiting the notable historical temples of Siem Reap, mainly Angkor Wat and eat local delicacies like fried cockroaches. Pit Stop at Baphuon Temple.

                    Leg 6: Franschhoek/Stellenbosch, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png)
                    South African winery leg. Pit Stop at Huguenot Monument in Franschhoek. Like Australia, its also very overdue and haven't visited in a long time since season 7.

                    Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png)
                    More touristy leg including the famous Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. Pit Stop will most likely at Rhodes Memorial.

                    Leg 8: Athens, Greece (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5c/Flag_of_Greece.svg/22px-Flag_of_Greece.svg.png)
                    Making Greek pottery and learning Ancient Greek gods + mythologies. Pit Stop either at the Acropolis or Mount Lycabettus. Another overdue country.

                    Leg 9: Ljubljana, Slovenia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f0/Flag_of_Slovenia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Slovenia.svg.png)
                    I would wonder that Slovenia will get its first visit on the franchise. Probably will going to take mountain-related tasks in Triglav and Lake Bled would be cool as the Pit Stop location.

                    Leg 10: Milan, Italy (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/03/Flag_of_Italy.svg/22px-Flag_of_Italy.svg.png)
                    The place for fashion and lifestyle, including a medieval tasks in Sforza Castle. A wonderful city that has not visited since TAR 4.

                    Leg 11: Cali, Colombia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Colombia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Colombia.svg.png)
                    After a huge successful first Colombian visit in Cartagena, this beautiful Colombian city would be more awesome. Cali is known as the Salsa capital of the World would involve popular Salsa dance. A great penultimate South American leg.

                    Leg 12: Houston, Texas, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Houston is a great place to visit and its more people than other Texan cities (Dallas, Austin, Fort Worth and San Antonio). Finish line will be probably at San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site around USS Texas.

                    WISHlist Season 30 (Well I said I'd make one, so here it is Part 1/3 or 4) ((Tried to put as many throwbacks as possible))

                    Leg 1: New York, New York → Dublin/Shannon Ireland :USA Flag: :Ireland Flag:

                    Starting Line ~ Flushing Meadows Park

                    Route Info: Teams will have to make their way to the airport to catch 1 of 3 flights heading towards Dublin, Ireland. Once they arrive at their destination, they’ll have to make their way to Phoenix Park where they’ll receive their next clue.

                    Route info: Teams will have to make their way to the Na Fianna GAA Club to receive their next clue.

                    Road block: Who thinks they can hurl their way to victory? One team member will suit up and have to score 3 points in the Gaelic Game known as hurling. Following proper rules, THEY have to score the 3 points, NOT anyone else on their team. Once the ref is pleased with their performance, they’ll receive their next clue.

                    Route Info: Teams will have to make their way to the Dromoland Castle to receive their next clue. (In the Lobby)

                    Detour: Shoot It or Arrow It (Spin off of Welsh Detour from Season 24 and Switzerland Road Block from season 5?)

                    Shoot It- Teams will have to make their way to the nearby shooting range where they’ll have to shoot down 16 clay pigeons combined. (Like in Season 24) Once this is done, they’ll receive the clue for the Pit Stop.

                    Arrow It - Teams will have to make their way to the nearby archery range where they’ll have to score a combined score of 80 points to receive their next clue for the Pit Stop.

                    Pit Stop: Brian Boru Center

                    Leg 2: → Budapest, Hungary :Hungary Flag:

                    Route Info: Teams will be instructed to head to the local Falconry at Dromoland Castle. Once there, they’ll have to wear the proper equipment and then have one of three birds (owl/hawk/falcon) deliver them their next clue.

                    Route Info: Teams will be instructed to make their way to Budapest, Hungary. Once there, they’ll have to make their way to Matthias Church to receive their next clue.

                    Detour: Ugros (A dance) or Himzes (Embroidery) Teams will not be given the context of the detour, just the Hungarian words. They CAN ask locals to translate what the words mean.

                    Ugros - Teams will have to make their way to the Hungarian Heritage House. Once there, they’ll have to dress up in appropriate gear and perform a dance known as Dunantuli Ugros. Once they properly complete this extremely challenging (physically) dance routine, they’ll receive their next clue. Note, if a team fails to impress the judges/makes a mistake no matter how slight, they’ll have to wait 5 minutes before performing again. They CAN practice during this time.

                    Himzes - Teams will have to make their way to Manota Embroidery Studios. Once they’re, they’ll have to help finish embroidering 5 flags. Although the task is not physically demanding, teams who do not have nimble fingers might have a harder time.

                    Route Info: Teams will have to take a taxi to the Gundel restaurant to receive their next clue.

                    Road block: (Throwback to Season 6) Who else wants to spice up their life? One team member will have to eat a 24 ounce bowl of a traditional Hungarian spicy soup. Once they’ve completed this, they’ll receive the clue to the Pit Stop.

                    Pit Stop: Memento Park

                    Leg 3: → Milan, Italy → (via Train) Rome, Italy :Italy Flag:

                    Teams will have to fly to Milan, Italy. Once there, they’ll have to make their way to Sforza Castle to receive their next clue.

                    Road Block: Who knows a knight in shining armor? One team member will have to rush around the castle looking for 8 pieces of a suit of armor. (Helmet, chestplate, Both arms, both hands, a wooden sword, and a wooden shield.) Once they have found the pieces, they’ll have to put the suit of armor together. However, each armor set has a symbol on it, so they will have to find the armor pieces with the Corresponding symbol to the one that will be given in the road block clue. (E.x. dragon, griffon) Once the armor is properly put together and matches the symbol, they’ll receive their next clue.

                    Route Info: Teams will have to take a train from Milan, Italy to Rome, Italy. (Doesn’t have to be all the way) Once there, they’ll have to make their way to the Pantheon to receive their next clue.

                    My wishlist for Season 29!

                    Leg 1: Boston, Massachusetts, USA - Dublin, Ireland
                    Dublin is a fantastic city and Ireland hasn't been visited since Season 12 so is long overdue in my opinion!

                    Leg 2: Dublin, Ireland - Helsinki, Finland
                    It's about time for a return to Finland in my opinion!

                    Leg 3: Helsinki, Finland - Hamburg, Germany
                    A visit to Hamburg to go Minatur Wunderland and have a roadblock to do with repairing a model train would be really interesting!

                    Leg 4: Hamburg, Germany - Muscat, Oman
                    A trip to the Middle East for a difficult self driving leg!

                    Leg 5: Muscat, Oman to Rangoon, Myanmar
                    I loved the Top Gear Special and feel it would be a fantastic country for a visit

                    Leg 6: Rangoon, Myanmar
                    It deserves a second leg to sort of deal with Rural Myanmar

                    Leg 7: Rangoon, Myanmar to Queenstown, New Zealand
                    A winter New Zealand leg is overdue in my opinion and Queenstown is amazing during the Winter!

                    Leg 8: Queenstown, New Zealand to Auckland, New Zealand to Whangarei, New Zealand
                    A leg that deals with New Zealand's rich history with the Pit-stop at Waitangi with some self driving

                    Leg 9: Auckland, New Zealand to La Paz, Bolivia
                    La Paz deserves a second visit and has more to offer than what was showcased in Season 13!

                    Leg 10: La Paz, Bolivia to Santa Cruz, Bolivia
                    A city that is expanding with a mix of modern and historical traditions would make a great visit!

                    Leg 11: Santa Cruz, Bolivia to San Jose, Costa Rica
                    A difficult penultimate leg in the heat of the carribean sea and rainforest with adventure and puzzles.

                    Leg 12: San Jose, Costa Rica to Nashville, Tennessee, USA
                    A rich city ripe with themes of country music for a final leg!

                    Drive across country into Latvia. Easter European City leg with team spending almost all leg navigating themselves on bike in Riga.

                    Leg 9: Riga, Latvia -> Lleida, Spain
                    Fabulous mountain and ski resort to film. This will show the new aspect of Spain with snowy mountain range... before another TBC yet again. <3

                    Leg 10: Melilla, Spain
                    Spanish harbor leg with the old city. Teams are required to walk on foot almost an entire leg. And welcome to Africa at the end of the race. <3

                    Western Africa as a penultimate. <3 Crazy leg at the grand market with the showcase of voodoo culture. <3

                    Finally a well-deserved Chicago as a finale. <3 Let them fight for the million along the stunning skyline of Chicago before crossing the finish line at night.

                    Season 30 wishlist (probably a second chance themed race, 27 candidates (9 M/M, 9 F/M and 9 F/F per production) to be part in the voting poll that will be decide for 11 chosen finalists by fan-vote).

                    Link for S29 wishlist: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1157745.html#msg1157745

                    Starting line: Solvang, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Beautiful Danish landscape in the Pacific coast with cozy architecture.

                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b9/Flag_of_Australia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia.svg.png)
                    Tasks will involve with cricket and rugby (both popular Australian sports in which Melbourne is Australia's sporting capital). Pit Stop probably in Federation Square. Australia is really an overdue and was last visited in season 18.

                    Leg 2: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b9/Flag_of_Australia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia.svg.png)
                    This leg involving airplane acrobat task in a town of Lilydale, northeast of Melbourne. Pit Stop will be in Royal Exhibition Building.

                    Leg 3: Taipei, Taiwan (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/Flag_of_the_Republic_of_China.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_Republic_of_China.svg.png)
                    Involves making sky lanterns. Pit Stop at Taipei Astronomical Museum.

                    Leg 4: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Flag_of_Malaysia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Malaysia.svg.png)
                    Fly to another Chinese-populated country in Southeast Asia, that would involve multicultural diversities. KL Tower beside Bukit Nanas Forest would be an awesome Pit Stop (reliving of the very first TAR Asia episode).

                    Leg 5: Siem Reap, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png)
                    Revisiting the notable historical temples of Siem Reap, mainly Angkor Wat and eat local delicacies like fried cockroaches. Pit Stop at Baphuon Temple.

                    Leg 6: Franschhoek/Stellenbosch, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png)
                    South African winery leg. Pit Stop at Huguenot Monument in Franschhoek. Like Australia, its also very overdue and haven't visited in a long time since season 7.

                    Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png)
                    More touristy leg including the famous Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. Pit Stop will most likely at Rhodes Memorial.

                    Leg 8: Athens, Greece (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5c/Flag_of_Greece.svg/22px-Flag_of_Greece.svg.png)
                    Making Greek pottery and learning Ancient Greek gods + mythologies. Pit Stop either at the Acropolis or Mount Lycabettus. Another overdue country.

                    Leg 9: Ljubljana, Slovenia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f0/Flag_of_Slovenia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Slovenia.svg.png)
                    I would wonder that Slovenia will get its first visit on the franchise. Probably will going to take mountain-related tasks in Triglav and Lake Bled would be cool as the Pit Stop location.

                    Leg 10: Venice/Padua, Italy (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/03/Flag_of_Italy.svg/22px-Flag_of_Italy.svg.png)
                    Gondolier tasks and a visit to famous pristine churches in Italy. City hasn't visited since TAR 4.

                    Leg 11: Cali, Colombia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Colombia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Colombia.svg.png)
                    After a huge successful first Colombian visit in Cartagena, this beautiful Colombian city would be more awesome. Cali is known as the Salsa capital of the World would involve popular Salsa dance. A great penultimate South American leg.

                    Leg 12: Houston, Texas, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Houston is a great place to visit and its more people than other Texan cities (Dallas, Austin, Fort Worth and San Antonio). Finish line will be probably at San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site around USS Texas.

                    LIST

                    LEG 1: Solvang, California, USA - Melbourne, Australia

                    please no Melbourne, I lived there for 3 years, it's the most boring place on earth. The leg would be extremely bad. Victoria is good, but Melbourne, NO.

                    ^^ Ozzy, the problem is Melbourne hasn't yet visited in US TAR, but it was visited in international Races. Whenever it would be a first destination leg in the Southern Hemisphere summer.

                    Iv'e attempted to create the first three legs to TARUK (not real). So here they are (11 teams, 13 legs, fast forward on each)

                    That'd work too, so when they do an all-star season, there will be enough contestants from both countries. :lol: Though, it'd be more interesting to have people from the whole continent join. :)

                    Despite this wishlist thread being called locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks and prophetic dreams! It's usually just locations and twists, but I know this sounds like a horrible idea, but I would love to see teams choose what penalty they want to endure once they reach the Pit Stop mat. So teams who either know they have a penalty or finding out should choose between taking the penalty at the mat right then or, either check in without the penalty and be handcuffed together for the next leg of the race, having no sleep during their 12 hour rest, etc. I think that this would not make penalty's so fatal and teams can decide which way their game lands.

                    With the (not so) recent introduction of the F4 Finale + MPE Twist, I'd like to see International versions apply this with the Salvage Pass.
                    If it's used to save a team, the F4 Finale + MPE Twist will happen, while everything stays as usual if not.

                    I want them to re-visit Uruguay! They really need to.

                    Also, i'm missing Canada, Mongolia and Iceland too. That would be like super cool.

                    If they cannot get Ford anymore, then they might as well get different brands. It's about time we need self-driving back. We've had it just once in S.28

                    TAR Australia (& Oceania) 4 Route Wishlist:

                    Leg 1:Tasmania, Australia-->Bora Bora, French PolynesiaF11NEL
                    Leg 2:Bora Bora, French Polynesia-->Acapulco, MexicoF11EL

                    Leg 5:Santiago, Chile-->Dublin, IrelandF9EL
                    Leg 6:Dublin, Ireland-->Rome --> Naples, ItalyF8EL
                    Leg 7:Naples, Italy-->Athens, GreeceF7EL
                    Leg 8:Athens, Greece-->Sahara, EgyptF6ML
                    Leg 9:Sahara, Egypt-->Western Sahara, MoroccoF6EL
                    Leg 10:Sahara, Egypt-->Tbilisi, GeorgiaF5NEL
                    Leg 11:Tbilisi, Georgia-->Osaka, JapanF5EL

                    Leg 12:Seoul --> Busan, South Korea-->Brisbane, AustraliaF4EL

                    Besides the home country and France (but it was Mainland France back then), all the countries have not been visited by TAR Australia. (With the budget though, I don't think having 6 continents is possible.) The countries I've selected are countries that I think have different sceneries and cultures compared to the ones visited in the 3 seasons of TAR Australia.

                    Even though Hayley is married. I would love to see her race again with Blair. They definitely take the "Formerly Dating" as the relationship. Kym & Alli, absolutely 2 thumbs up for All Stars, they have to be back.

                    The Manila is still spelt Manilla, also what's the switchback to Palau, they've never visited Palau! Is it the Sancastle roadblock for BoraBora

                    they're all pretty awful choices besides Burnie & Ashley
                    why they are bad -
                    Tyler & Korey - speaks for itself.
                    Scott & Blair - Scott was fine but boring. Blair was annoying most of the time.
                    Zach & Rachel - were they even on this season? ???
                    Burnie & Ashley - meh

                    You know what, I kinda of agree with them. Imo, this was a bad season but that is besides the point. Just wish vote had more options.

                    North of Spain please, Bilbao for example. It would be nice a Bilbao + San Sebastian leg.

                    Other nice places for a TAR visit to Spain:

                    Santander

                    And please no tasks of bull-fighting or flamenco, because Spain isn't like that everywhere. 2 of the 3 times we had a visit we had a task related to bull-fighting.

                    Because of this being a wishlist:

                    After having the Speed Bump-U Turn combo for 16 seasons, I feel like it would be nice for a refreshing change for the non-elimination penalty and slowdown twist. And part of me wants the Speed Bump to be ousted entirely because look at this signage travesty Scott & Blair encountered... :faint:
                    Show content
                    (http://i.imgur.com/pElxnzk.png)
                    I can't handle these Speed Bumps if that's going to be the quality of these signs.

                    Firstly, I wish a "handicap", somewhat like in the Norwegian version, would be the new non-elimination penalty for a route info task or Roadblock. As a pro for production, they don't even have to reserve a venue for this new penalty so "Heck yes to cost efficiency! :hoot:" For example, if a task asked teams to fill 50 containers with ground coffee, the penalized team must do double the work, filling 100 containers. Plus, it doesn't take away the challenge and joy for other teams trying to overtake them in the same situation.

                    As a substitute for the U-Turn, I think it would pretty cool if they tested out a pseudo-Speed Bump and it's what I call a "Workzone". Exactly like a Speed Bump, a Workzone would be an extra regular task the slowed down team must perform before collecting their next clue at the SAME location. The task has to be part of a relevant everyday activity in the locale that stalls teams into frustration or possibly taking the penalty of not completing a Workzone. For example: fit a 16-piece tangram puzzle into a large hexagon while in China or ride the London Eye for a full revolution before continuing. It can work as an infused Yield and U-Turn while still showing culturally relevance. Best placed in the middle of a leg or near the beginning.

                    Hoping WRP pays attention this thread and RFFers enjoy! :waves:

                    I like your idea for the "Workzone", but for me it's a developed Yield, which I'd love to return :P
                    The U-Turns should stay imo, sometimes they don't even make a difference and they add a lot of strategy and social politics to TAR.

                    Show content
                    (http://i.imgur.com/pElxnzk.png)
                    I can't handle these Speed Bumps if that's going to be the quality of these signs.

                    Firstly, I wish a "handicap", somewhat like in the Norwegian version, would be the new non-elimination penalty for a route info task or Roadblock. As a pro for production, they don't even have to reserve a venue for this new penalty so "Heck yes to cost efficiency! :hoot:" For example, if a task asked teams to fill 50 containers with ground coffee, the penalized team must do double the work, filling 100 containers. Plus, it doesn't take away the challenge and joy for other teams trying to overtake them in the same situation.

                    As a substitute for the U-Turn, I think it would pretty cool if they tested out a pseudo-Speed Bump and it's what I call a "Workzone". Exactly like a Speed Bump, a Workzone would be an extra regular task the slowed down team must perform before collecting their next clue at the SAME location. The task has to be part of a relevant everyday activity in the locale that stalls teams into frustration or possibly taking the penalty of not completing a Workzone. For example: fit a 16-piece tangram puzzle into a large hexagon while in China or ride the London Eye for a full revolution before continuing. It can work as an infused Yield and U-Turn while still showing culturally relevance. Best placed in the middle of a leg or near the beginning.

                    Hoping WRP pays attention this thread and RFFers enjoy! :waves:

                    I love the idea of the Workzone, provided it is culturally relevant. The Handicap is also good as it is cost efficient. As Marionete stated, the U-Turns should stay, maybe a new U-Turn, a Triple U-Turn for early legs where 8-10 teams still remain. I think the Speed Bump & U-Turn combo should be removed, or at least lessened, both should not be on the same leg.

                    Korea, like the Philippines, needs an early Race visit.  In the 2 Korea Legs and 4 Philippine Legs ever, only 4 teams have ever Raced in any of them.  There need to be Legs with at least twice as many teams. 

                    That's why I'm always hoping for a westward route with both Korea and the Philippines being the two Asian countries visited on it.

                    Strongly agree! :jam: I'd be so glad to see 11 teams on both countries if ever it happens.

                    This new hillside artwork is getting lots of attention, so it's a great time for TAR to make a Philippine visit and finally head up north to the Cordillera region. Great cultural tasks with dances and traditional outfits and weaving, etc which none of the Philippine Legs so far have had. =)

                    But not for TAR29 please.  For TAR30's (if it ever happens :grins:) Oceania > Asia westward route.  :hearts:

                    Speaking of, why not a Starting Line in Honolulu.  Plenty of flights from Honolulu to Australia, NZ or Asia.

                    This new hillside artwork is getting lots of attention, so it's a great time for TAR to make a Philippine visit and finally head up north to the Cordillera region. Great cultural tasks with dances and traditional outfits and weaving, etc which none of the Philippine Legs so far have had. =)

                    But not for TAR29 please.  For TAR30's (if it ever happens :grins:) Oceania > Asia westward route.  :hearts:

                    Speaking of, why not a Starting Line in Honolulu.  Plenty of flights from Honolulu to Australia, NZ or Asia.

                    I'm still wishing they revisit the Philippines, and hopefully they go to a different province far from Manila. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
                    Many teams racing in the Philippines would be great! :yess: I only see that in TAR Ph.
                    No more F4 Philippine legs please. :hoot:

                    It's almost like TARUS is afraid of the logistics of having so many teams in the Philippines.  But then TAR Asia, Australia and even Ukraine had more than half of the teams racing around, and in not easy locations too. I was even shocked when TARAu had the opening Leg in the Philippines lol

                    you could fly up to Northern Mozambique to Pemba and/or Nampula or cross the border to Kruger NP, South Africa.

                    But instead I am having them drive down the coast line to Durban cause I am trying to make this a "summer vacation" theme.

                    Many teams racing in the Philippines would be great! :yess: I only see that in TAR Ph.
                    No more F4 Philippine legs please. :hoot:
                    It's almost like TARUS is afraid of the logistics of having so many teams in the Philippines.  But then TAR Asia, Australia and even Ukraine had more than half of the teams racing around, and in not easy locations too. I was even shocked when TARAu had the opening Leg in the Philippines lol

                    TAR Aus 2's opening leg was really fun to watch! :cheer: :conf: :trampb:
                    I wish TAR US could have 11 teams racing in the Philippines too. :hoot:

                    I want to see a themed season of TAR (in the far future) wherein all the contestants come from another reality show besides TAR.
                    For example:
                    ~ Masterchef alumni
                    ~ The Voice alumni
                    ~ American Idol alumni
                    etc.

                    It would be more awesome if TAR wasn't aiming for a themed season when they will be doing this season, thus all are purely applicants, no invitations whatsoever.

                    Little route I planned for S30   :<3. Filled with New or underused places! 3 New Countries!

                    Start Line : Honolulu, Hawaii 🇺🇸
                    Hawaii is just an amazing place, it deserves a start line.

                    Leg 1 : Kyoto, Japan 🇯🇵
                    Although Japan is overused Kyoto is a georgeous place that people need to see, I think it's a place the race can't miss. They'll land in Osaka before taking a train to Kyoto.

                    Leg 2 : Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺
                    Australia! Where have you been?  :funny: Tasmania's rural scenery will be a delight to the eye, I really hope it's visited.

                    Leg 3 : Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺
                    Melbourne needs a visit, it's an Australian City packed with culture and diversity it's also a food Mecca  :funny:. Teams will travel here by ferry from Devenport, Tasmania.

                    Leg 4 : Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    This is our crazy Asian leg! In S13 Angkor wasn't properly displayed so it gets a second chance, the race needs to touch on Cambodian culture!

                    Leg 5 : Tel Aviv & Masada, Israel 🇮🇱
                    ISRAEL!!! I can't believe we haven't seen it yet! Tel Aviv is the largest city in Israel with lots of modern skyscrapers but the Pitstop will be held in Ancient Masada. (Like TarAus1)

                    Leg 6 : Jerusalem, Israel 🇮🇱
                    You can't really go to Israel without visiting Jerusalem  :funny: There's so much history!

                    Leg 7 : Prague, Czech Republic 🇨🇿
                    Prague is an absolutley beautiful place, i can't believe we haven't seen it in 15 seasons!

                    Leg 8 : Bratislava & Trenčin, Slovakia 🇸🇰
                    To complete Czechoslovakia! Another new country! The great city of Bratislava finally seen along with the small city of Trenčin.

                    Leg 9 : Gagnoa, Ivory Coast 🇨🇮
                    I'm sure most of you haven't heard of Gagnoa  :funny:. I was going to use Abidjan but saw this little village in a video and thought it'd be perfect for a leg. Also West Africa hasn't been seen in ages!

                    Leg 10 : Accra, Ghana 🇬🇭
                    This is our African leg that'll give you a shock  :funny:, it's hectic, loud and busy. Perfect  :funny:. teams will cross the border in private vehicles during the Pitstop.

                    Leg 11 : Dublin, Ireland 🇮🇪
                    I think it's time this wonderful city was visited! That's all  :funny:

                    Leg 12 : New Orleans, Louisana 🇺🇸
                    Although it was briefly touched in S8, the race needs to really delve into the depths of this cultural city, it really will be an amazing leg, especially if it was mostly in the French quarter!

                    TL;Dr

                    SL: Honolulu, Hawaii 🇺🇸

                    1. Kyoto, Japan 🇯🇵
                    2. Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺
                    3. Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺
                    4. Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    5. Tel Aviv & Masada, Israel 🇮🇱
                    6. Jerusalem, Israel 🇮🇱
                    7. Prague, Czech Republic 🇨🇿
                    8. Bratislava & Trenčin, Slovakia 🇸🇰
                    9. Gagnoa, Ivory Coast 🇨🇮
                    10. Accra, Ghana 🇬🇭
                    11. Dublin, Ireland 🇮🇪
                    12. New Orleans, Louisiana 🇺🇸

                    That would be difficult since those were all on different networks and I don't think CBS wants to promote its rivals' shows.

                    Leg 2: Jakarta, Indonesia-Darwin, Australia.

                    What does everyone think? Should TARA5 just stay in Asia or go around the world. Tell me

                    I think TARA should not just stay in Asia. However, I think that majority of the legs should be in Asia. Personally, I want half of the legs to be in Asia.

                    Would love to see the first leg start at some American large college/ university campus since it's so big and there are so many buildings.

                    Maybe UCLA...

                    Also, maybe having a "one-leg" race during which the 11 teams just have to go through 11-12 countries, without any pit stops and knowing their position on the race.

                    OR

                    Having a race in one continent like teams would have to through like across Europe by car.

                    Also, more interactions with locals.

                    Like in Pekin Express (French), there could a season where the contestants have to ask locals for rides and a room to sleep in.

                    Sure! To make it more fun I tried to fit it in #12shows21days so WRP has no choice not to use it.  :sab

                    LEG 1: Los Angeles, CA to near Reykjavik, Iceland
                    LEG 2: to Bled, Slovenia
                    LEG 3: to Budapest, Hungary
                    LEG 4: to Volcanoes NP, Rwanda
                    LEG 5: to Jinja, Uganda
                    LEG 6: to Kuwait City, Kuwait
                    LEG 7: to Al Wafrah, Kuwait
                    LEG 8: to Luang Prabang, Laos
                    LEG 9: to Taichung, Taiwan
                    LEG 10: to Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands
                    LEG 11: to Guam, US
                    LEG 12: to Denver, CO

                    In checking these I realize there's plenty of opportuniues for airport scrambling and for a final RB involving food or animals <3

                    Also, maybe having a "one-leg" race during which the 11 teams just have to go through 11-12 countries, without any pit stops and knowing their position on the race.

                    OR

                    Having a race in one continent like teams would have to through like across Europe by car.
                    I love this idea!

                    I like this idea but maybe for smaller mini-season with like 6-8 legs with only 6-8 teams or else the budget is gonna be tremendous.

                    I want to speak for everyone and say there needs to be more difficult tasks that will push teams to the limits (but not overboard like jumping over sharks) and make them interact with the natural surrounding culture such as communicating with locals, common sense, trial-error, and make them critically think for themselves like in the pioneer seasons rather than just navigation and counting on taxis. For example, the season 2 premiere in Rio required teams to figure out how to rent a boat to get themselves to a ship in the middle of Guanabara Bay. A while back in season 14, teams had choices to travel from Los Angeles to Locarno, Switzerland via a flight to Milan OR Zurich and then taking the train from there to the church. I enjoyed those unpredictable moments and hope they are brought back to all versions of TAR.

                    Also, cryptic clues like in the finale of season 17 (Don Quixote/7 Year Itch - Quixote Studios Stage 7) made the broadcast a lot more fun as well as engaging the racers to be clever.

                    My Amazing Race 30 Wishlist!

                    Starting Line: Pearl Harbour, Honolulu, United States 🇺🇸
                    Hawaii NEVER gets starting lines (has it ever?)

                    Leg 1: Auckland, New Zealand 🇳🇿
                    The last visit to New Zealand was in Season 22. Underused and The Amazing Race has never stayed in Auckland, for a whole leg.

                    Leg 2: Christchurch, New Zealand 🇳🇿
                    Christchurch has the most beautiful scenery, The Amazing Race cannot miss it.

                    Leg 3: Hobart, Australia 🇦🇺
                    Tasmania is a BEAUTIFUL city of Australia. The little island gem of Australia is amazing and is a perfect location for The Amazing Race to visit.

                    Leg 4: Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺
                    Teams will need to drive to Devonport and then catch the Spirit of Tasmania to Melbourne. Cannot describe how amazing this city is. From sport to culture to food Melbourne has it all and needs to be visited, NOW!

                    Leg 5: Kathmandu, Nepal 🇳🇵
                    A NEW COUNTRY! Even Phil wants to visit his amazing country. Viewers will get hooked with the amazing mountains that are located around the city

                    Leg 6: Thimphu, Bhutan 🇧🇹
                    Prince William and Princess Kate visited and LOVED it. Can The Amazing Race replicate this visit?

                    Leg 7: Doha, Qatar 🇶🇦
                    Keep hoping for this country, season after season. I think it's just like the cities in the United Arab Emirates.

                    Leg 8: Cork, Ireland 🇨🇮
                    Time to leave Asia and to hop over to Europe. I can't believe Ireland hasn't been visited since Season 12! Time to revisit.

                    Leg 9: Brussels, Belgium 🇧🇪
                    Once again, only visited once. Hopefully, a task can be eating some Belgain chocolate!

                    Leg 10: Luanda, Angola 🇦🇴
                    Once again, a new country. Would like to see, since the civil war as ended and is safe.

                    Leg 11: Durban, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    Hasn't been visited since Season 7! Durban has also been never visited.

                    Leg 12: Havana, Cuba 🇨🇺 and Washington D.C, United States 🇺🇸
                    Amazing Race isn't going to visit Cuba, but I can keep dreaming...

                    Finish Line: White House, Washington D.C, United States 🇺🇸
                    With Trump at the Finish Line! (haha)

                    Enjoy! :)

                    The Amazing Race Asia 5 Wishlist (this is staying just in ASIA!)

                    Starting Line: Yuhi Falls, Minamiashigara, Japan 🇯🇵
                    Japan hasn't has a Starting Line and has only been visited once.

                    Leg 1: Toyko, Japan 🇯🇵
                    Toyko is a massive city and just is crying for another visit. Teams will have to take a train form the Starting Line to here.

                    Leg 2: Shanghai, China 🇨🇳
                    Hong Kong and Macau have only been visited, not mainland China.

                    Leg 3: Beijing, China 🇨🇳
                    If you go to China, you must visit Beijing.

                    Leg 4: Ulaanbatar, Mongolia 🇲🇳
                    Beautiful country and hasn't been visited on the Asian version.

                    Leg 5: Manilla, Philiipines 🇵🇭
                    Nice country, needs to be revisited.

                    Leg 6: Hanoi, Vietnam 🇻🇳
                    Not visited regularly on ANY version of The Amazing Race.

                    Leg 7: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 🇻🇳
                    The history in it, that's why I suggest a visit.

                    Leg 8: Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    Purely because of Angkor Wat, so that's the only reason.

                    Leg 9: Vientiane, Laos 🇱🇦
                    Beautiful city, beautiful country.

                    Leg 10: Vang Vieng, Laos 🇱🇦
                    Even more beautiful than Vientiane.

                    Leg 11: Singapore 🇸🇬
                    Boring, I know, but exciting.

                    Leg 12: Denpasar, Indonesia 🇲🇨
                    A required stop and Finish City. Tourist hotspot, perfect!

                    Finish Line: Kuta Beach, Indonesia 🇲🇨

                    To start TARA back up, you need to just start in Asia and then branch out around the world again, in TARA 6!

                    Cuba

                    Greenland: Why? ??? I think it's possible for a visit.

                    Antarctica: Someday? I think it's also possible given a perfect timing.

                    North Korea: We'll never know what'll happen to this world in the future, far future. :lol: This is assuming TAR still exists in the far future.

                    Cuba: Fast & Furious already filmed here some time ago, which means the embargo has stopped. :tup:

                    Come on, everyone knows that Greenland and Antarctica won't be visited. North Korea, well maybe and Cuba, yes, maybe someday, but certainly not Greenland or Antarctica

                    There are actual flights that go from Chile to Antarctica (check the archive for TAR 11 if you're bored :)). Greenland would be difficult since you would likely go through Europe both ways. If the suggestion is that it would be difficult to find things to do then consider they've had multiple legs in Bora Bora or atop Swiss mountains.

                    I think it's actually quite the opposite. North Korea will never get a visit anytime in the future until hostilities between the U.S. are resolved, which I don't see happening in the near future. Cuba might happen, but I think TAR might want to wait a bit to make sure there is no tension.

                    Greenland and Antarctica are safe and there are things that can be done. Also, I don't think it's that big of a deal that Greenland only connects to Europe. TAR has done many Europe --> Africa --> Europe. TAR12 and 17 come to mind that have. What's the difference in doing Europe --> Greenland --> Europe?

                    There are actual flights that go from Chile to Antarctica (check the archive for TAR 11 if you're bored :)). Greenland would be difficult since you would likely go through Europe both ways. If the suggestion is that it would be difficult to find things to do then consider they've had multiple legs in Bora Bora or atop Swiss mountains.

                    Greenland wouldn't be too hard if it was the second to last leg. Just have the previous leg in Europe, connect via Reykjavik, and for the final leg, connect to a city with a non-stop flight via Reykjavik.

                    How about having Greenland for 1st or 2nd leg? I think it'll work too.

                    Europe-Africa-Europe is one thing since they were flying to and from different destinations and had legs in Africa in the process (even though in TAR 12 they connected in CDG both ways lol).

                    Europe-Greenland-Europe basically forces teams to stay on Greenland an extra day so Phil can fly back out, especially if the following leg isn't in Iceland (which...wouldn't make sense if they're already going to Greenland) or Copenhagen (which is feasible!). It's a waste of time IMO unless they can manage two legs in Greenland which if so, more power to them. There are ways to do this, namely-

                    This is probably the best idea though in checking it looks like the flights from Greenland to Iceland are 2x per week (Monday and Thursday / Friday depending on the city). It's doable but they pretty much are planning the race around said flight (wouldn't be the first time I imagine  :snicker:)

                    My thinking is that in order to get to Greenland for leg 1, they would have to connect through Copenhagen or, if lucky, Iceland or possibly NE Canada from Iqalquit but
                    1. these flights are EXPENSIVE and
                    2. why not just have a leg in Iceland or Iqalquit which would be cheaper and/or easier to reach?

                    For the record I'm #teamicelandaspenultimateleg. Give the teams a car with 4x4 drive and let them have at it. :)

                    Given the above here's a route that might be of interest to some of you :)

                    Amazing Race 31: Honestly We Didn't Expect This Season to Exist edition

                    START: Los Angeles
                    Some things never change, but I think production will always, ALWAYS have a start or finish line in the LA area and I'd rather it be the start line and seen for five minutes than another subpar finish.

                    LEG 1: Singapore, Singapore
                    I never thought I'd be in a position to miss westward routes but here we are lol. Singapore is easily connected to LA and has enough to do, especially since previous visits had awful ratchet tasks, to warrant a fun starting leg.

                    LEG 2: Sylhet, Bangladesh
                    Teams would fly to Dhaka and take an overnight train to Sylhet, right before they're thrust into the tea industry. It's like the manual labor legs of TAR 21 except...only one instead of four yay!

                    LEG 3: Amman, Jordan
                    Initially this leg was going to be in Beirut (which incidentally is pretty safe though most of its sights warrant a night leg which I doubt production / insurance would go for  :snicker:) but as it turns out Amman is safer and easier to get to than most countries in this region and yet has more going for it taskwise than Dubai or Doha [/shade]. We haven't had a 'traditional' Muslim culture leg, just the occasional Route Info, but I figure it's a golden opportunity to show the rich culture of the area. Teams would finish around sunset atop the Citadel...

                    LEG 4: Petra National Park, Jordan
                    ...where they're immediately told to leave <3. Charter buses would take teams into Petra, for a leg involving archaeology, ancient Jordanians, and of course, camels.

                    LEG 5: Freiburg, Germany
                    Germany has been visited in 8 seasons. Of those
                    - 6 have been in fall, and
                    - 5 have been in Bavaria

                    So why not have a summer leg in the Black Forest instead? Have teams fly to Frankfurt and then drive ~200km since that's now apparently possible in modern TAR. My kingdom for a cuckoo clock building Roadblock <3

                    LEG 6: Dakar, Senegal
                    West Africa we missed you!  :hearts: Your standard urban Africa leg - wait...there aren't really any standards for this - rather, a leg basically centered in Dakar proper, whereas the next leg

                    LEG 7: Goree Island, Senegal
                    ...goes outside the city somewhat. There's definitely a trip to Lac Rose for a salt harvesting switchback (hopefully there are enough M/F teams where they can force all the women and one beta male to do it  :funny:) and then a trip across the city to Goree for what hopefully would be a better Detour / RI than what was found in TAR 6.

                    LEG 8: Porto, Portugal
                    Okay, so this is only partially because of RRAE 2 but even if it weren't, Porto's got enough going for it and the last visit to Portugal is long enough for people to forget that middling TAR 23 leg (I mean an archery Roadblock? REALLY?), to say nothing of the previous visit to Porto itself.

                    LEG 9: Malaga, Spain / Gibraltar, UK
                    As it turns out there's a single daily bus from Porto to Malaga (and plenty of opportunities to travel via Madrid and Seville via bus) and judging from the past few seasons that's the kind of route planning that production goes for. While initially this was going to end in the Alhambra, I figured that it would be far more chaotic to have teams go back and forth from Malaga to Granada and end up in St. Michael's Cave in Gibraltar.

                    LEG 10: Tasiilaq, Greenland
                    Funnily enough, this would work but the race would have to be so ridiculously micromanaged (which...is like pretty much every other season nowadays) as to get teams there. Teams would fly to Kulusuk and then take a helicopter ride to Tasiilaq for trips to glaciers, dog sledding and various other outdoor activities.

                    LEG 11: Kusuluk, Greenland
                    The time and cost spent to get into and out of Greenland pretty much requires two legs for it to be worth it. Somewhat more intellectual and cultural tasks to counter the previous leg (imagine that 'translate ancient Greek letters' task from TAR 9 but with the Viking language instead).

                    LEG 12: Minneapolis, MN
                    Initially this was going to be Boston but while there are several ways to get to Boston for a final leg (via Dublin, via New York, via Toronto), the only international flights of note for Minneapolis are from Iceland and Japan and I doubt anyone would want another horrible penultimate leg in Japan lol. Tasks about books, the greenspaces in the city, running, and hopefully enough other stuff that they don't have to rent out a sport stadium.

                    And now for the successor to the route I posted earlier on this pace

                    Amazing Race 32: Fan Service Edition

                    START: Los Angeles, CA
                    meh.org

                    LEG 1: Banff National Park, Canada
                    So people can stop complaining about Canada not having a Pit Stop  :snicker: Banff also has the benefit of not having been visited on TAR Canada and hosting a kind of awful leg on TAR Aus 2, so hopefully they won't invite a bunch of comparisons to either <3

                    LEG 2: Vancouver, Canada
                    So people can stop complaining about Vancouver not being visited :snicker:

                    LEG 3: Sabeto Valley, Fiji
                    The FF would be to find out if [redacted] won Survivor 33 and [redacted] lol kidding
                    I feel like I want to see teams attempt to meke; if all else fails have a sandcastle switchback <3

                    LEG 4: Melbourne, Australia
                    So people can stop complaining about Australia not being visited recently or Melbourne not being visited at all.
                    Would it be too much to have a task involving Australian Rules football? I wonder.  :sab

                    LEG 5: Mumbai, India
                    So at first there weren't really a lot of ~urban~ legs (really just Vancouver and two that are to come) and while India has been visited fairly recently, Mumbai hasn't. As long as the leg takes place in daylight so as to prevent people getting groped on forms of transportation everything should be fine.

                    LEG 6: Beirut, Lebanon
                    After careful investigation I've come to the conclusion that Beirut is safe  :ascared I feel like there's bound to be tasks concerning Lebanese ~heritage~ and possibly fashion design, to contrast with

                    LEG 7: Jouineh, Lebanon
                    A nighttime leg in which teams drink and party and whatnot  :conf:

                    LEG 8: Copenhagen, Denmark
                    To contrast with the two summer visits, here's a visit in the cold, dark near-winter. This would lend itself nicely to a bunch of fun indoor tasks like industrial design or things involving Danish literature because there's apparently a lot who knew?

                    LEG 9: Villach, Austria
                    This would start off with a loooooong train ride to Vienna (which actually exists!) followed by product placed vehicles for teams to drive and play with falcons and flags and stuff.

                    LEG 10: Maseru, Lesotho
                    I'm going to assume that Lesotho would be safe in 19ish months so here we are. Hat dances, cultural living, etc.

                    LEG 11: West Rand, South Africa
                    Initially this was to be a leg in Johannesburg but then it turns out that just outside of Joburg proper there's a bunch of cool stuff that TAR hasn't explored at all - Cradle of Mankind, the meteor, well known game reserves, and other things.

                    LEG 12: Washington, DC
                    There's no better way to end a 'fan service' edition than to end basically in my backyard, especially since the TAR 22 leg was kind of horrific in terms of locations or tasks (like...Mt. Vernon is such a virtual race finish line y'know?). Because I'm a sadist at least part of the leg would require traveling on Metro  :funny:

                    Yeah I know, but don't you just think that it's an overused country? *** Conserating that other countries that have been visited a few times, I think it's time to reuse underused countries (like Sri Lanka!)

                    Argentina and Switzerland have both been visited 6 times though? I think the bigger issue is that the trips atop Swiss mountains all blur together visually whereas all the terrible legs in Argentina are distinct.

                    Also while I disliked TAR 14 in general, I liked how the first leg and more specifically, first clue tested travel skills out of the jump. I imagine a variation of this for modern TAR would resemble

                    First clue - "Make your way to Confucius' final resting place to receive your next clue."

                    Said resting place is his family tomb in Qufu, China, which has no airport but has a fairly developed train station. Have teams leave the starting line in the morning and hint at the cities to fly to (Beijing or Shanghai, which, when factoring in customs / travel end up arriving ~20-30 minutes apart) to see what kind of skills they have with travel and problem solving.

                    You're correct, both Argentina & Switzerland are visited 6 times already. I really don't get why Argentinian legs don't get good tasks when there are loads to be done there. If TAR does decide to make legs there in the future, I really do hope the production treats Argentina like its their 1st visit there. Make better leg designs. The one in bold, is the one I'd like to see in modern times. Have racers figure out on how to get to the destination they need to go to, compared to recent seasons where it is spoonfed.

                    Leg 10: A Coruna, Spain (in the autonomous region of Galicia - it actually is very similar to Ireland with its hills and wind swept landscape!)
                    Leg 11: Frankfurt, Germany (you know we've never actually had a full leg in Frankfurt! It's a great city)
                    Leg 12: Chicago, IL, USA

                    The Amazing Race Australia: Local Edition

                    Leg 1: Sydney, Australia  Starting Line: Sydney Harbour Bridge
                    Leg 2: Sydney-Broken Hill, Australia  Pit Stop: Mine's Memorial, Line of Lode mine
                    Leg 3: Broken Hill-Gold Coast, Australia  Pit Stop: Surfers Paradise beach
                    Leg 4: Gold Coast-Brisbane, Australia Pit Stop: Kangaroo Point
                    Leg 5: Brisbane-Alice Springs, Australia  Pit Stop: Uluru
                    Leg 6: Alice Springs-Darwin, Australia  Pit Stop: Palmerston Town Hall (destroyed by Cyclone Tracey)
                    Leg 7: Darwin-Broome, Australia  Pit Stop: Cable Beach
                    Leg 8: Broome-Perth, Australia  Pit Stop: Kings Park
                    Leg 9: Perth-Adelaide, Australia  Pit Stop: St Peter's Cathedral
                    Leg 10: Adelaide-Coober Pedy, Australia  Pit Stop: Metal Tree
                    Leg 11: Coober Pedy-Ballarat, Australia  Pit Stop: Sovereign Hill
                    Leg 12: Ballarat-Melbourne, Australia  Pit Stop: MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground)
                    Leg 13: Melbourne-Hobart, Australia  Finish Line: Cascade Brewery.

                    I believe that this will be a good leg, if TARA wants to start up a local version of TAR, as it visited every state and territory (expect for the Australian Capital Territory.) and every capital city (apart from Canberra) and every 'regional' city in the country. Hope you enjoyed! :funny:

                    Problem is, TARC is based in Canada, so it would be boring if a ANOTHER season was based in Canada!

                    But Canada is awesome! I'd take Canada over America any day of the week. It's so much better. I love the amazing race Canada. And by the way I should give you props on your Australian route! I remember when I first heard about TARA 1 I thought it would be completely within Australia and I was so excited!  :hearts:

                    One side of me says I want to see a season of teams purely made of children race in an official TAR, but the other thought that comes into mind is the simplicity of tasks and locations due to it being a kid edition, so I'm quite torn with my kids edition wish. ??? :umn:

                    I'll make a route later, though. :grins:

                    Like I said, THERE IS NOTHING IN ARIZONA.

                    PERIOD.

                    Okay, fellow RFF'ers, I understand that many of you live around the United States and around the world, so I would not understand you all to understand that Arizona is truly terrible. But you must be thinking, "Brannockdevice, it has the Grand Canyon!" Why yes my friends, it does. Our official nickname is The Grand Canyon state! Let me tell you about the Grand Canyon. You drive for a few hours to get there, and you can see this MASSIVE canyon through the pine trees, and you get to the lookouts and it's truly breathtaking! For five minutes. Think about it. You go there to look at a giant hole in the ground. That's it. After 20 minutes of standing in the heat, you're bored out of your mind regretting that you even came. And then there's the Arizona heat. It is common for the summer high to get to the 120°s Fahrenheit or upper 40°s Celsius. My mom told me that the day she moved here it was 123°F (50°C). It is brutal. Oh and don't get me started on people here. Arizonans are some of the most racist people you'll ever meet. About 5 years ago a law was passed here that LEGALIZED racial profiling of Hispanics to make sure that they weren't illegal immigrants. It was terrible. The Supreme Court of the United States had to intervene and declare the law unconstitutional. People here hate Mexicans. It honestly makes me sick to my stomach. And then there's the homophobia. Religion is very big here, and of course homophobia follows. When I came out of the closet earlier this year, there was an absolute barrage of odd looks and ended friendship. People here literally KILL themselves because their fellow community members won't accept them for their sexuality.

                    Please avoid Arizona people. I know you just want to include it in these fantasy routes, but I thought it was something you all should know.

                    You do realize that TAR 4 finale visited Arizona? Maybe TAR production had just realized Arizona's problems after the race ended.

                    I have a totally different opinion of Arizona. :lol: I think the state has superior natural beauty (Grand Canyon (https://farm1.staticflickr.com/691/20664938416_4e4b224684_h.jpg)/Sedona (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/72/Cathedral_Rock_at_Red_Rock_Crossing.jpg)/Saguaro NP (http://www.national-park.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Welcome-to-Saguaro-National-Park.jpg)/Havasu Falls (https://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7683/28086235236_69c5c2e6f6_o.jpg)/Canyon de Chelly (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c2/A095%2C_Canyon_de_Chelly_National_Monument%2C_Arizona%2C_USA%2C_Spider_Rock%2C_2004.jpg)/The Wave (http://i.imgur.com/nPQKvzs.jpg)). I know one Arizonan, and she's a great person. Unfortunately, there are racist/unaccepting people everywhere; I'm sorry you had to deal with them. :(

                    Brazil (5 times) and Japan (7 times)  are overused. São Tomé and Principe sounds good.

                    I believe overused countries can still be good, depending how they present the culture and tasks in lesser known urban or rural areas. It's just my opinion though. :)

                    The probelm is, I get very bored seeing Japan and China nearly every season. Time to visit some underused countries (eg, South Africa!)

                    TAR28 China was amazing! One of my favourite penultimate legs in recent TAR.

                    TAR27's China leg was great, too, and although I also feel disappointed as soon as I see such an overused country visited again, I gotta give the past 2 Chinese legs credit :lol:

                    And the Indian legs in S27 also made great episodes imo..

                    Yeah! Outside of the big cities, I still am fascinated China. I loved China Rush because it showed me a part of China I had never really been familiar with! And personally I love Germany, so I will never be tired with a visit there. Same with Brazil and Argentina.

                    Like on the route I made up there^ with the first 2 legs in Brazil, look up the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul! It's beautiful, plus we've never been there! Same with the Japanese island of Hokkaido! It's so much different than Tokyo or Osaka. Did you know the people native to Hokkaido, the Ainu, are actually white? They came from Siberia!

                    I feel like Amman + Petra would be a fairly easy two legs to plan and run instead of having legs in the UAE but what do I know?

                    Also here's a thing; perhaps you'll figure out the theme  :snicker:

                    START - Los Angeles, CA
                    Leg 1 - to Montreal, Canada
                    Leg 2 - to Montérégie region, QB, Canada (ending in Hudson)
                    Leg 3 - to Shanghai, China
                    Leg 4 - to Lang Co, Vietnam (via Da Nang)
                    Leg 5 - to Kampong Cham, Cambodia
                    Leg 6 - to Antananarivo, Maddagascar
                    Leg 7 - to Morondava, Madagascar
                    Leg 8 - to Beirut, Lebanon
                    Leg 9 - to Midi-Pyrenees region, France (ending in Carcassonne)
                    Leg 10 - to Corsica, France (ending in Oletta)
                    Leg 11 - to Dakar, Senegal
                    Leg 12 - to New Orleans, LA

                    (if you guessed the theme to be "redoing mediocre legs from TAR 6 through 10" you wouldn't be wrong  :funny:)

                    How would you guys feel about a 14 teams starts like Israel TAR, But All-Star?

                    Gives us 14 teams, 3 more teams than usual, but first 2 legs divided in 2 race of 7 (maybe like in the USA, or 1 in canada and 1 in mexico). then the remaining 12 teams go on the rest of the race around the world!

                    I love that twist, plus it gives us a chance of having more teams from earlier seasons

                    No, one leg per episode, but to have the first two episode be a 7 teams race, with the last team of each episode being eliminated...

                    Leg 1.1: 7 becomes 6
                    Leg 1.2: 7 becomes 6

                    Leg 2: 12 teams become 11
                    and so on, and have 13 episode with 2 NEL or 12 episode with one NEL

                    The probelm with this route, is that you only stayed in Central and South America. I said u could go to North America and the Carribean. Not a big fan of this route to be honest  :(

                    I can't believe I'm doing this again almost four years later. (Somewhere in heaven aspkip should be laughing, loudly)

                    The islands of Cuba and Puerto Rico are part of the Greater Antilles archipelago, one of the main group of islands of the Caribbean.

                    Mexico is North America - at least for us who live in Latin America -.

                    And if you mean by North America going to USA or Canada, sorry they're off limits.

                    I was taking about the four years because Aspkip and I had a similar discussion on which countries were part of North, Central and South America then, regarding how different some topics are taught in our respective schools.

                    And as you read I said nothing on what you thought about the route because I respect your opinion, what is a golden rule here. So keep the sarcasm for yourself, ok? Thanks.

                    I figured it was time to bring back an old but fun challenge that some of you did, it seems:

                    Also another new challenge, this time with difficulty levels  :conf:

                    1. Must start and end in US with 12-13 legs.
                    2. For each country chosen as well as the Finish Line, find the last season that hosted a leg for it on TAR and note the season number. The total for your season should be less than 110.

                    For example, TAR 28 would be: 3 (Mexico) + 0 (Colombia) + 24 (Switzerland) + 27 (France) + 0 (Armenia) + 0 (Georgia) + 23 (UAE) + 23 (Indonesia) + 27 (China) + 25 (Los Angeles) = 152, that could be dropped down with like...any better penultimate country / finish line.

                    Notes: a) only count places that had actual tasks or RIs (so Kenya is 0, notably), b) dependant territories should be separate from their home countries (Greenland, French Polynesia, etc) c) separate the individual countries of the UK when calculating (though they're all pretty high so...), d) this thread is spoiler free and thus goes up to TAR 28; any TAR 29 destination visited should have its 'old' score)

                    [...]

                    OR

                    Make any sort of feasible route with St. Helena  :funny:

                    Good luck, and don't [expletive] it up.

                    Leg 9: Yangon, Myanmar
                    Leg 10: Sihanoukville, Cambodia (who thinks of a coastal resort in Cambodia, am I right?)
                    Leg 11: Vancouver, Canada
                    Leg 12: Portland & the Columbia River Region, OR, USA

                    Score = 12 (Ireland) + 0 (Gambia) + 25 (Italy) + 15 (Czech Republic) + 17 (Oman) + 0 (Myanmar) + 15 (Cambodia) + 8 (Canada) + 13 (Portland) = 105

                    I very much like the second route and MOST of the first route. I think the Falkland Islands is part of the U.K. Spain is in Europe and I asked for a route in North, South, Central America and/or the Carribean. But yeah, good route.

                    Okay so here's one for BourkieBoy's TAR Latin America:

                    Starting Line: Santiago, Chile
                    Leg 1: Punta Arenas, Chile
                    Leg 2: Stanley, Falkland Islands
                    Leg 3: Buenos Aires, Argentina
                    Leg 4: Santa Fe, Argentina
                    Leg 5: Belo Horizonte, Brazil
                    Leg 6: Ouro Preto, Brazil
                    Leg 7: San Jose, Costa Rica
                    Leg 8: Madrid, Spain (the Spanish colonized all of Latin America except for Brazil, so this would be like tar Canada going to England or France!)
                    Leg 9: Toledo, Spain
                    Leg 10: Havana, Cuba
                    Leg 11: Viñales Valley, Cuba
                    Leg 12: Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

                    And the Zack's Score Based Tar:

                    Starting Line: New York City, NY, USA
                    Leg 1: Dublin, Ireland
                    Leg 2: Killarney & County Kerry, Ireland
                    Leg 3: Banjul, Gambia
                    Leg 4: Banjul, Gambia
                    Leg 5: Cagliari, Italy
                    Leg 6: Prague, Czech Republic
                    Leg 7: Khasab, Oman
                    Leg 8: Mandalay, Myanmar
                    Leg 9: Yangon, Myanmar
                    Leg 10: Sihanoukville, Cambodia (who thinks of a coastal resort in Cambodia, am I right?)
                    Leg 11: Vancouver, Canada
                    Leg 12: Portland & the Columbia River Region, OR, USA

                    Score = 12 (Ireland) + 0 (Gambia) + 25 (Italy) + 15 (Czech Republic) + 17 (Oman) + 0 (Myanmar) + 15 (Cambodia) + 8 (Canada) + 13 (Portland) = 105

                    I very much like the second route and MOST of the first route. I think the Falkland Islands is part of the U.K. Spain is in Europe and I asked for a route in North, South, Central America and/or the Carribean. But yeah, good route.

                    The Falklands is still South America, like how French Polynesia is Oceania and not Europe.

                    The Falklands are geographically part of South America and officially governed by the UK, although Argentina has made / still is making claim to them. It would be the equivalent of using French Guiana or one of the dependencies of the Caribbean (Curacao, British Virgin Isles, etc.).

                    That said-

                    START: Mexico City, Mexico
                    Leg 1: Guadalajara, Mexico
                    Leg 2: Vinales, Cuba
                    Leg 3: Santiago de Cuba, Cuba
                    Leg 4: Willemstad, Curacao, NA
                    Leg 5: Arashi, Aruba, NA
                    Leg 6: Buenos Aires, Argentina
                    Leg 7: Colonia, Uruguay
                    Leg 8: Iquitos, Peru
                    Leg 9: Bogota, Colombia
                    Leg 10: Guatemala City, Guatemala
                    Leg 11: Antigua, Guatemala
                    Leg 12: Districto Federal, Mexico

                    I *was* going to try and shove in a US or Canada leg but as it turns out visa requirements for the US are awful lol, especially for a competition like TARLA which has teams from different nationalities.

                    I figured it was time to bring back an old but fun challenge that some of you did, it seems:

                    Also another new challenge, this time with difficulty levels  :conf:

                    1. Must start and end in US with 12-13 legs.
                    2. For each country chosen as well as the Finish Line, find the last season that hosted a leg for it on TAR and note the season number. The total for your season should be less than 110.

                    For example, TAR 28 would be: 3 (Mexico) + 0 (Colombia) + 24 (Switzerland) + 27 (France) + 0 (Armenia) + 0 (Georgia) + 23 (UAE) + 23 (Indonesia) + 27 (China) + 25 (Los Angeles) = 152, that could be dropped down with like...any better penultimate country / finish line.

                    Notes: a) only count places that had actual tasks or RIs (so Kenya is 0, notably), b) dependant territories should be separate from their home countries (Greenland, French Polynesia, etc) c) separate the individual countries of the UK when calculating (though they're all pretty high so...), d) this thread is spoiler free and thus goes up to TAR 28; any TAR 29 destination visited should have its 'old' score)

                    [...]

                    OR

                    Make any sort of feasible route with St. Helena  :funny:

                    Good luck, and don't [expletive] it up.

                    I can't believe I'm doing this again almost four years later. (Somewhere in heaven aspkip should be laughing, loudly)

                    The islands of Cuba and Puerto Rico are part of the Greater Antilles archipelago, one of the main group of islands of the Caribbean.

                    Mexico is North America - at least for us who live in Latin America -.

                    And if you mean by North America going to USA or Canada, sorry they're off limits.

                    I miss Apskip....

                    This is kind of a mix of my Tar30 wishlist and what I could actually see the route being.

                    SL : Los Angeles, California 🇺🇸

                    1. Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺
                    2. Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺
                    3. Cebu Island, The Philippines 🇵🇭 (Half Cebu City half the rural part of the island)
                    4. Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    5. Sihanoukville & Koh Rong, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    6. Udaipur, India 🇮🇳
                    7. Rural Western Cape, South Africa 🇿🇦 (Wine County + Game Reserves)
                    8. Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    9. Sarajevo & Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina 🇧🇦 (New Country  :conf:)
                    10. Split, Croatia 🇭🇷
                    11. Barcelona or Madrid, Spain 🇪🇸
                    12. New Orleans, Louisana 🇺🇸

                    If this were to happen it would be the first even numbered season to not visit Switzerland or Germany since season 12!

                    This is kind of a mix of my Tar30 wishlist and what I could actually see the route being.

                    SL : Los Angeles, California 🇺🇸

                    1. Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺
                    2. Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺
                    3. Cebu Island, The Philippines 🇵🇭 (Half Cebu City half the rural part of the island)
                    4. Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    5. Sihanoukville & Koh Rong, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    6. Udaipur, India 🇮🇳
                    7. Rural Western Cape, South Africa 🇿🇦 (Wine County + Game Reserves)
                    8. Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    9. Sarajevo & Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina 🇧🇦 (New Country  :conf:)
                    10. Split, Croatia 🇭🇷
                    11. Barcelona or Madrid, Spain 🇪🇸
                    12. New Orleans, Louisana 🇺🇸

                    If this were to happen it would be the first even numbered season to not visit Switzerland or Germany since season 12!

                    3 (Mexico) + 17 (South Korea) + 19 (Taiwan) + 25 (Philippines) + 22 (Vietnam) + 0 (Qatar) + 26 (Germany) + 19 (Denmark) + 0 (Nashville) = 131

                    I think Mexico would actually be 28.

                    Oh shoot you're right! Thanks for that! So instead of 131 it would actually be 156. My bad!

                    I have to admit, Sydney is the 'overused' city in Australia. It's been visited twice! Personally, if TAR30 did Sydney, I'd been very disappointed, because there are many other cities in Australia, that are worth posting!

                    It's kinda funny, though, don't think any version has ever visited Canberra. A lot of people mistakenly think Sydney is the national capital but have never heard of the actual one.

                    The reason people out of Australia think Sydney's the capital, is because hardly any tourists go to Canberra! They all go to Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast, etc. Canberra will NEVER been visited by TAR, because the city is so small (they could be visited though, if a leg was set in Sydney and maybe a fast forward let them to there.) I went there for camp once and we drove from north to south in about 10 minutes! So there u go. My reasons.  :)

                    I've made a route that looks pretty cool.

                    Starting Line: Minneapolis, USA

                    Leg 1: Ponta Delgada, Azores, Portugal (islands in the middle of the Atlantic) (0)

                    Leg 7: Okinawa, Japan (26)
                    Leg 8: Melbourne, Australia (18)

                    Leg 12: New Orleans, USA (0)

                    Number = 76 (If the Azores, Reunion, Easter Island, and French Guiana don't count as their owning countries)

                    I like the route, but I think (correct me if I'm wrong) the total number had to be under 110.

                    oh. I didn't know that there was a number limit. But I would contend that Reunion, Azores, French Guiana, and Easter Island numbers shouldn't count, and I only added those numbers in case someone told me otherwise. Removing those numbers would make 76.

                    Yes, Reunion, Azores, French Guinea and Easter Island haven't been visited by TAR, so their score would be 0. It's your total score being 76, so are under and so u have passed the challenge!

                    The best part about my route is that France is visited twice, but they aren't consecutive legs, and neither of them are in Europe  :funny:

                    http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/territories.htm That would be the U.K. This list shows many territories of the US, but so many of them are uninhabited islands they're completely pointless tbh. The United States had five territories that really matter - Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands (both in the Caribbean), Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands (in the pacific). So the answer to your question is the U.K.!

                    Quick question everyone. So before I make my next route, which will most likely involve China, I want to get your guys's opinions. I know people groan whenever China is visited, so I'm trying to find a location in China that no season of any Amazing Race has ever been. Last night I went through all of China's 34 (I think  ???) provinces and narrowed it down to the provinces that had never been visited before (I even removed Inner Mongolia simply for that short bus drive to Erenhot in Season 10). So, to make it simpler, where in China would you guys not gripe about visiting?

                    Maybe Urumqi? Cause then you could go to other places in Western Asia easily and I don't think that area of China has been visited very often.

                    Yeah I guess that's true. I can see a task involving Uighur Culture, and maybe another involving the Silk Road! Thanks  :)

                    I guess a gripe I have is when the US visits China, they always do urban legs, so the visits all blur together. Western rural China would be a welcome change.

                    Leg 9: Fly to Leon, Spain, then train to Valladolid, Spain. Also visits to Tordesillas (The Treaty of Tordesillas in 1494 split up the Americas between Spain and Portugal, so this could totally be made into a historical roadblock a la The Amazing Race Canada 2 Episode 10) and a pit stop at Urueña (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urue%C3%B1a)

                    Leg 11: Train to Santander, Spain and then a ferry to Plymouth, England, UK. Also visits to Exeter, Torquay, and Dartmoor, with a pit stop on the Jurassic Coast.
                    Leg 12: Train to London, fly to Detroit, the sign up for one of three charter flights to Mackinac Island, Michigan, United States.

                    Unfinished Business                    Reason
                    1 Brooke and Claire           2nd; Lost to first FF team winner

                    6 Misti/Jim                   2nd; Lost due to final challenge
                    7 Tim and Marie           2nd; Lost due to final challenge

                    9 Adam and Bethany       3rd; Lost due to final challenge
                    10 Steve and Aly           6th; Lost due to flat tire
                    11 Tiffany and Krista        4th; Lost due to a bad taxi

                    I would trade Max/Katie for Shelley/Nici.

                    Posted from TAR 30 Pre-race speculation thread:

                    All-stars would be nice....
                    I think that Hayley and Blair and Brooke and Robbie should be in it as well as Tyler and Korey and Sheri and Cole :colors

                    Hayley & Blair and Brooke & Robbie have broken up.

                    I think he/she meant as friends not in love.
                    Brooke is pregnant and Hayley is engaged so I don't think we'll see these teams race again.

                    No Blairley? :(

                    Unfortunately, they could not want to race again as ex couples, alas John Vito and Jill.

                    That's because she didn't like how she was being portrayed up to that point, but imo their edit improved a lot afterwards.

                    Quick question everyone. So before I make my next route, which will most likely involve China, I want to get your guys's opinions. I know people groan whenever China is visited, so I'm trying to find a location in China that no season of any Amazing Race has ever been. Last night I went through all of China's 34 (I think  ???) provinces and narrowed it down to the provinces that had never been visited before (I even removed Inner Mongolia simply for that short bus drive to Erenhot in Season 10). So, to make it simpler, where in China would you guys not gripe about visiting?

                    I want to see Chengdu, saw pictures and it looks beautiful urban & rural + pandas.

                    I hope these teams get to race again, if TAR 30 were to be returning racers.

                    1. Brooke and Claire
                    2. Tim and Marie
                    3. Kym and Alli
                    4. Zach and Rachel
                    5. Sherri and Cole
                    6. Michael and Kevin
                    7. Matt and Ashley
                    8. Erin and Joslyn
                    9. Tanner and Josh
                    10. Adam and Bethany
                    11. Steve and Aly

                    Let me know what you guys think!

                    I've heard that Tim & Marie were invited to TAR24, but Marie declined the invite.

                    Marie can't even boil an egg  :funny:

                    Quick question everyone. So before I make my next route, which will most likely involve China, I want to get your guys's opinions. I know people groan whenever China is visited, so I'm trying to find a location in China that no season of any Amazing Race has ever been. Last night I went through all of China's 34 (I think  ???) provinces and narrowed it down to the provinces that had never been visited before (I even removed Inner Mongolia simply for that short bus drive to Erenhot in Season 10). So, to make it simpler, where in China would you guys not gripe about visiting?

                    I want to see Chengdu, saw pictures and it looks beautiful urban & rural + pandas.

                    Well there are loads of places, insuring you didn't count China Rush visits. Chengdu is great, pandas and a task involving spicy Sichuan hot pot! You could go to Zhangjiajie which inspired the floating mountains in Avatar, I'd love to visit here! Suzhou near Shanghai known as the Venice of China. What I'd like to see is a visit to Guilin, but S14 ruined it by only staying in the city, go out to rural Yangshuo, Li River (Like Tar Aus2) also visit the Longji rice terraces, it's a stunning place.

                    I missed so much due to my sudden disappearance for almost 3 weeks! :funny: I'm the type of person who doesn't wanna miss posted stuff or messages, so I dig all the way until where I last checked.
                    Can someone make race couser  SpainX2 France Italy Denmark South AfricaX2 Botswana Comoros India Japan
                    Here's a challenge: make a 13 Leg race with each continent hosting 2 legs, with the finale in the US. I'll start:
                    Here's a challenge. The Amazing Race has made a United States vs. Canada edition. Make a 12 leg race - 6 in the US and 6 in Canada. Go!
                    THE AMAZING RACE CENTRAL EUROPE HAS BEEN RENEWED! (Not really). YOU ARE TO NOW CREATE A ROUTE THAT CAN ONLY SAY IN EUROPE. GOOD LUCK!
                    ANOTHER CHALLENGE:
                    The Amazing Race Latin America has come back (pretend). U must create a route that stays in South, North America and the Carribean.

                    Good luck!
                    The Seven Network has brought the rights to The Amazing Race Australia: Local Edition. Your job is create a route that stays ONLY in Australia. (Include Pit Stops, Start and Finish Lines)

                    Good luck!

                    I'll make them one by one when I get the time. :funny: I'll skip the ones with seasons as values because I already made one before (although it'd be fun to make another, if I have the time :lol: ), and also the one about TAR Aus 4, because I also made that too, completely with regions never visited by TAR Aus. I just have to dig it? I don't think I have to repost it. :lol:

                    I agree rural China is undervisited. :( TAR US needs more rural China.

                    I want to see parts of China that have mixed culture, such as Heilongjiang (Russian China), Jilin (Korean China), Hohhot (Mongolian China), and more!

                    I also agree with Chengdu. I don't think it was ever visited by the US version. ??? I learned some history about Chengdu, and I just like the place from that. :)

                    I have a weird route that goes around the world east, then at one point, goes around the world west.

                    Starting Line: Houston, USA

                    Leg 1: Santiago, Chile
                    Leg 2: Base Presidente Eduardo Frei Montalva, Antarctica (Chilean base) (crosses Southern Ocean)
                    Leg 3: Bueno Aires, Argentina
                    Leg 4: Durban, South Africa (crosses South Atlantic Ocean)
                    Leg 5: Dili, East Timor (crosses Indian Ocean)
                    Leg 6: Quito, Ecuador (crosses South Pacific Ocean)
                    Leg 7: Belmopan, Belize
                    Leg 8: Tokyo, Japan (crosses North Pacific Ocean)
                    Leg 9: Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina
                    Leg 10: Tromsø, Norway
                    Leg 11: Yellowknife, Canada (crosses Arctic Ocean)
                    Leg 12: Barcelona, Spain (crosses North Atlantic Ocean)
                    Leg 13: Boston, USA

                    Yes, the crossing from Leg 10 to 11 to 12 is so weird, but it was the only way to make it work.

                    Leg 3: Base Presidente Eduardo Frei Montalva, Antarctica (via Santiago, Chile) (crosses Southern) (yes, go from deep within the Arctic Circle to inside the Antarctic Circle  :snicker: )
                    Leg 4: Belém, Brazil
                    Leg 5: Saint-Denis, Réunion (crosses S. Atlantic)
                    Leg 6: Hobart, Tasmania, Australia (crosses Indian)
                    Leg 7: Hainan, China
                    Leg 8: Kiritimati, Kiribati (crosses N. Pacific)
                    Leg 9: Hanga Roa, Easter Island, Chile (crosses S. Pacific)
                    Leg 10: Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, Galápagos Islands, Ecuador
                    Leg 11: Cockburn Town, Turks and Caicos Islands (yes, that's the capital's name :funny: )
                    Leg 12: Boston, USA

                    2. Tim and Marie

                    10. Adam and Bethany
                    11. Steve and Aly

                    Let me know what you guys think!

                    I made a route for the teams I hope will return for TAR 30 (if it is an All-Stars season). The route is designed so that the teams would not visit the same country twice, eg Namibia is not in my route because Steve and Aly visited it in S26.

                    Starting Line: Walt Disney Concert Hall, USA

                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia EL
                    Leg 2: Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei ZHPS
                    Leg 3: Tasek Merimbun Heritage Park, Brunei EL
                    Leg 4: Vientiane, Laos EL
                    Leg 5: Doha, Qatar NEL
                    Leg 6: Larnaca, Cyprus EL
                    Leg 7: Riga, Latvia EL
                    Leg 8: Helsinki, Finland EL
                    Leg 9: Rovaniemi, Finland EL
                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain NEL
                    Leg 11: Quito, Ecuador EL
                    Leg 12: Fort Lauderdale, USA

                    Vientiane to Doha and Rovaniemi to Madrid are the only connecting flights. I tried to make it as realistic as possible. Let me know what you think!  :trampb:

                    Leg 5: Dili, East Timor (crosses Indian Ocean)
                    Leg 6: Quito, Ecuador (crosses South Pacific Ocean)
                    Leg 7: Belmopan, Belize
                    Leg 8: Tokyo, Japan (crosses North Pacific Ocean)

                    Leg 11: Yellowknife, Canada (crosses Arctic Ocean)
                    Leg 12: Barcelona, Spain (crosses North Atlantic Ocean)
                    Leg 13: Boston, USA

                    Yes, the crossing from Leg 10 to 11 to 12 is so weird, but it was the only way to make it work.

                    Since a lot are participating in route-making challenges, I'll have one too. :lol:
                    Challenge: Make a route in 10-13 legs which will cross the 7 seas (Indian, North Pacific, South Pacific, North Atlantic, South Atlantic, Southern, Arctic) at least once.
                    Have fun! :bump

                    For my new route (where you don't have to cross the entire sea):

                    Starting Line: Houston, USA

                    Leg 1: London, England (crosses N. Atlantic)
                    Leg 2: Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway (crosses Arctic)
                    Leg 3: Base Presidente Eduardo Frei Montalva, Antarctica (via Santiago, Chile) (crosses Southern) (yes, go from deep within the Arctic Circle to inside the Antarctic Circle  :snicker: )
                    Leg 4: Belém, Brazil
                    Leg 5: Saint-Denis, Réunion (crosses S. Atlantic)
                    Leg 6: Hobart, Tasmania, Australia (crosses Indian)
                    Leg 7: Hainan, China
                    Leg 8: Kiritimati, Kiribati (crosses N. Pacific)
                    Leg 9: Hanga Roa, Easter Island, Chile (crosses S. Pacific)
                    Leg 10: Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, Galápagos Islands, Ecuador
                    Leg 11: Cockburn Town, Turks and Caicos Islands (yes, that's the capital's name :funny: )
                    Leg 12: Boston, USA

                    https://www.rome2rio.com/trip/sleofido

                    NOTE: I did not notice this, but all of the locations (except Houston, Belém, and Boston) are on islands  :funny:

                    I think Reunion will NEVER be visited by TAR, because the island is small. I don't think many tourists go there, because there isn't many attractions to do. Producers would have to do a lot of work to get TAR there. Sorry for my rant, but here's some good news:
                    COCKBURN!  :funny: :<3

                    I hope these teams get to race again, if TAR 30 were to be returning racers.

                    1. Brooke and Claire

                    Let me know what you guys think!

                    I made a route for the teams I hope will return for TAR 30 (if it is an All-Stars season). The route is designed so that the teams would not visit the same country twice, eg Namibia is not in my route because Steve and Aly visited it in S26.

                    Starting Line: Walt Disney Concert Hall, USA

                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia EL
                    Leg 2: Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei ZHPS
                    Leg 3: Tasek Merimbun Heritage Park, Brunei EL

                    Leg 12: Fort Lauderdale, USA

                    Vientiane to Doha and Rovaniemi to Madrid are the only connecting flights. I tried to make it as realistic as possible. Let me know what you think!  :trampb:

                    Finish Line: Bootleggers Cove, Anchorage, United States 🇺🇸
                    I KNOW this is the WORST route by far, but leave me your thoughts....

                    Here is the biggest challenge of them all (I think)

                    THE AMAZING RACE 31 IS CALLED INTERNATIONAL. TEAMS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD HAVE BEEN INVITED TO TAKE PART IN AMERICA'S TAR. YOU ARE TO MENTION THE TEAMS AND THEIR OCCUPATION (example: Phoebe and Bella, Gym Owners from Melbourne, Australia ). 11 TEAMS WILL TAKE PART. THEN, YOU MUST CREATE A ROUTE THAT VISITS THE COUNTRIES THE TEAMS ARE FROM (example: Because Phoebe and Bella are from Melbourne, TAR must visit Melbourne) THE FINAL LEG MUST TAKE PLACE IN USA (of course)

                    (You can add Pit Stops, Starting and Finish Lines, etc.)

                    GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!

                    Here is the biggest challenge of them all (I think)

                    THE AMAZING RACE 31 IS CALLED INTERNATIONAL. TEAMS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD HAVE BEEN INVITED TO TAKE PART IN AMERICA'S TAR. YOU ARE TO MENTION THE TEAMS AND THEIR OCCUPATION (example: Phoebe and Bella, Gym Owners from Melbourne, Australia ). 11 TEAMS WILL TAKE PART. THEN, YOU MUST CREATE A ROUTE THAT VISITS THE COUNTRIES THE TEAMS ARE FROM (example: Because Phoebe and Bella are from Melbourne, TAR must visit Melbourne) THE FINAL LEG MUST TAKE PLACE IN USA (of course)

                    (You can add Pit Stops, Starting and Finish Lines, etc.)

                    GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!

                    This is gonna be like me making fan fiction, albeit shorter. :lol:

                    THE AMAZING RACE 31 IS CALLED INTERNATIONAL. TEAMS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD HAVE BEEN INVITED TO TAKE PART IN AMERICA'S TAR.

THEN, YOU MUST CREATE A ROUTE THAT VISITS THE COUNTRIES THE TEAMS ARE FROM (example: Because Phoebe and Bella are from Melbourne, TAR must visit Melbourne) THE FINAL LEG MUST TAKE PLACE IN USA (of course)

                    (You can add Pit Stops, Starting and Finish Lines, etc.)

                    Let's get back to TAR Wishlists please.

                    This is NOT a place for challenges.

                    If one of you wants to start a challenge thread in GAMES you are welcome. Whoever started these maybe?

                    But NO MORE here.

                    Good point. I came back from an almost-3-week hiatus to learn that I missed 5 to 6 pages of the Wishlist thread. :funny:

                    I'll continue the one I'm working on at the other thread. :tup:

                    I wonder if Peach will leave the rest here, or transfer them. ???

                    I can do either. Who started these? If the creator of the challenges wants to take on running the game, I will move them. But the first post will show as the game creator, so that person needs to take responsibility for the thread.

                    Or we can start fresh.  Let me know? Thanks everyone!! I like reading these...

                    If I'm being honest I think I started these challenges back on page 135. I can make a new thread dedicated just to challenges if you all like?

                    Brannockdevice started this challenges (on page 135) so maybe he can start TAR challenges in the game thread and we can ALL put in and play in that section? How does that sound???

                    Only the moderator can, so it's up to her whether to move it or not, since that's about 5 pages worth of posts to move.

                    Oh, ok. Can like we just deleted posts (the person) who create the challenges and replies. Like, if I posted a challenge and I just deleted and whoever posted the reptiles deleted them and then we can do them again in the challenge section? I hope u are understanding what I'm saying

                    I want TAR to visit Malabo, Equatorial Guinea and Sarajevo, B&H. Equatorial Guinea seems like the obscure country that TAR needs to go to so that they have a fresh, unique leg of the race. Sarajevo just needs to be visited; it's a place full of culture and history, and it hasn't gotten any publicity since the Yugoslav Wars.

                    Hawaiian start
                    Alaskan finish.

                    Personally, I would prefer it to be in the Carribean because we NEVER have legs there and TAR have been to Portugal many times, but it's up to you, because it's your route!  :)

                    Here is my Season 30 wishlit: I took extra time to try to make this route cheaper for production.

                    Starting line: Bangor, Maine
                    Leg 1: Québec City, Canada: Drive yourself (first challenge a 5h drive) French Canadian leg with European Flavor.
                    Leg 2: Vancouver, Canada. Nature Leg
                    Leg 3: Kunming, China.  Crazy city leg (and because the flights work from Vancouver and to Laos)
                    Leg 4: Vientiane, Laos. New country
                    Leg 5: Rural Laos
                    Leg 6: Kuwait City, Kuwait (Middle east leg)
                    Leg 7: Bucharest, Romania
                    Leg 8: Zagreb, Croatia (self drive leg)
                    Leg 9: Algiers, Algeria
                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain
                    Leg 11: Havana, Cuba (First Leg in Cuba)
                    Leg 12: Finish Line : Miami, Florida

                    I don't think they would do this, but I'd like to see teams from seasons that have not yet gone on to an All-Stars or Unfinished Business season return. I'm assuming Season 30 or 31 will be All Stars 3 or UB 2.

                    Excluding teams from Seasons 25-29, we haven't had teams from Seasons 4,6,8,13 and 19 participate in an AS or UB.

                    I'd like to see:
                    - Kelly & Jon (Season 4)
                    - Kris & Jon (Season 6) or maybe Jonathan & Victoria
                    - Billy & Carissa (Family Edition)
                    - Toni & Dallas (Season 13)
                    - Not sure who'd I pick from Season 19

                    And then the remaining 6 teams will be from Seasons 25-29.

                    Again, it'll never happen. But I can dream...

                    Let's adjust that to 19-70. Would love to have a race with a lot of diversity. European-American, Asian-American, African-American, Hispanic-American and Oceanian/Pacific Islander-American teams.

                    What is it with the Amazing Race and Central/Eastern Europe. If you look back it works out quite strangely. Up until S10 there was nothing except S6's visit to Budapest. But then from S10 to S15 was where Tar found its love for the region. It visited, Ukraine, Poland, Lithuania, Croatia, Romania, Estonia and Czech Republic. But after that it stopped. After this we've only had 2 visits to Poland.

                    I mean there are some absolutly spectacular cities here that i'd love to see revisited including, Prague, Budapest, Dubrovnik, Tallinn, & Transylvania. But also new places like Česky Krumlov, Brno, Cluj, Split, Zagreb and Hvar. Not only this but there are numerous other countries that i think are worthy of a visit. These are Slovakia, Slovenia, Latvia & Bulgaria. But i really want a visit to Montenegro. I mean would it hurt tar to do a double leg in say Croatia/Montenegro or Prague/Česky Krumlov or Latvia/Lithuania.

                    So Tar if you're reading, give Western Europe a break  :luvya:

                    P.S, Visit Ireland though!

                    Why not going to  KYOTO AND NARA  IN JANPAN.
                    ALSO IN CHINA.LOTS OF CITYS ARE REALLY FUN. LIKE SOME WESTERN CITYS ...LIKE CHENGDU(PANDA'S HOMETOWN) AND CHONGQING(HOT POT). ALSO ZHANGJIAJIE IS AMAZING ! AND XI'AN .HANGZHOU.SUZHOU. THERE ARE REALLY COOL CITY. WHY TAR ALWAYS GO TO SHANGHAI AND BEIJING? PLEASE GO TO THE SICHUAN AND CHONGQING

                    Welcome to RFF. TAR has visited Japan 7 times (with the most recent coming in Season 26 with 2 legs.) Kyoto and Nara HAVE NOT been visited, however because it has only been 3 seasons since TAR visited Japan last, I think u might have to wait a little longer for those cities.

                    As for China, that country has been visited 13 times, with 20 pit stops. I agree that Western Cities in China need to be visited, instead of Beijing, Shanghai, etc every time. China's last visit was in Season 28 and was visited also in 27. But, will it be featured in TAR30? Big question.

                    Here are my thoughts for TAR30

                    1 leg in Canada. Time to revisit and to have a Pit Stop.

                    Then, off to Europe. No UK, France or Germany. Just Ireland (2 legs), Czech Republic, Belgium and Portugal. 6 legs down.

                    No Africa. When it gets a visit in TAR31, no Morocco please. Instead go to South Africa for 2 legs and then Angola (new country) for 1 leg.

                    Off to Asia. They will not be visiting India, China or Japan. Instead, they will be going to Sri Lanka and Cambodia (2 legs)

                    Down to Oceania down for 2 legs. Easy, 2 legs in Australia.

                    For the 12th leg, stop in Guadalajara (Mexico), do a few tasks and then have your finish line in Dallas, Texas.

                    South America doesn't get a visit this time, but for TAR31, no visiting Brazil, Argentina and Chile. Instead, go to Peru, Uruguay and Bolivia.

                    Hope u enjoyed

                    Umm there is no problem...

                    But I would love to see a few places visited. London is a fantastic city so I wouldn't mind another visit but only if if went South halfway through. To Leeds Castle, Hampton Court Palace, Canterbury or Brighton. Stratford Upon Avon would be great for a Shakespeare themed detour. Cornwall is a beautiful location providing excellent scenery for the race. Bath is also a great place. Up North is York and Rural Yorkshire along with the Lake District which is stunning! In Scotland I wouldn't be upset if they visited Edinburgh, with more of a focus in the city centre. The Isle of Skye and of coarse Lodh Ness are beautiful.

                    But the Emerald Isle (Ireland) is definitely an option, Dublin is a great city. I've heard that Cork and the southern Coast are beautiful and of coarse Galway. But the race could also visit the crown dependencies of Guernsey and Jersey!

                    England has been visited too many times, however I like the idea of visiting Canterbury, Brighton and Cornwall. Scotland has been visited only 3 times out of the 2 times that TAR has visited the UK. However, I would like to see Glasgow featured, instead of Edinburgh. IRELAND IS AMAZING!!!!! I would also like to see Guernsey and Jersey featured in one leg.

                    The Thing is there isn't much in Glasgow, it's great for nightlife but it isn't very pretty or historic.

                    I guess they could go to Glasgow for like a Detour or Roadblock or something and then go back to Edinburgh for the Pit Stop.

                    Off to Asia. They will not be visiting India, China or Japan. Instead, they will be going to Sri Lanka and Cambodia (2 legs)

                    Down to Oceania down for 2 legs. Easy, 2 legs in Australia.

                    For the 12th leg, stop in Guadalajara (Mexico), do a few tasks and then have your finish line in Dallas, Texas.

                    South America doesn't get a visit this time, but for TAR31, no visiting Brazil, Argentina and Chile. Instead, go to Peru, Uruguay and Bolivia.

                    Hope u enjoyed

                    I would definitely love it. TAR 28 did not visit Africa and Oceania, a westward route looks good for TAR 30 that will include Africa. But South Africa hasn't visited in ages since pre-Family Edition era.

                    See my TAR30 proposal route post on page 137: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1176456.html#msg1176456

                    With the proposed 12 legs within a dozen of countries. As I posted in page 137, the propose route will have Melbourne (Australia) for 2 legs. The replacement countries for the route will be Kyoto/Nara (Japan), Penang (Malaysia), Siem Reap (Cambodia), Timișoara (Romania) and San Juan (Puerto Rico), within one leg each.

                    Yeah, I feel they haven't yet captured Tokyo, if that makes sense  :funny:. It just seems that they focus on modern Japan, never traditional Japan (apart from S18 E3)

                    I always consider S18 to take place in Yokohama, a city in its own right. I think the only major urban centers that have had good legs are Bangkok and Amsterdam and maybe Sydney too?

                    Innyway, a fantasy TAR 30 to address these and other ~issues~

                    Show content
                    START - Los Angeles, CA - duh
                    LEG 1 -  to Chengdu, China - LUZERNLIO basically explained why such a leg would be great so I see no need to go further lol.
                    LEG 2 - to Luang Prabang, Laos - it literally comes up every other page here
                    LEG 3 - to Vang Vieng, Laos - adventure-type leg; if they can find a leg close enough to the karst cliffs it doubles as an Emmy nominee in the same vein as the leg in Ha Long Bay in TAR 10
                    LEG 4 - to Jaislamer, India - it occurs to me that my issue isn't that India is visited all the time, it's that we go to the same five cities again and again. Jaislamer, while relatively close to Jaipur, Jodhpur, and even Delhi, has enough (desert) and culture to make for a full leg.
                    LEG 5 - to Baku, Azerbaijan - so I rewatched TAR 20 after a bunch of people called it 'unmemorable' and as it turns out the Baku leg was really, REALLY bad. Since it seems TAR only 'fixes' one leg each season I suppose this is the one lol.
                    LEG 6 - Lankaran, Azerbaijan - recurring themes that this show tends to go to: a) intruding on people's weddings, b) intruding on people working at tea plantations, c) forcing teams to be shirtless for part of the leg. As it turns out Lankaran features ALL THREE and more!
                    LEG 7 - to Cape Town, South Africa - there you go, BourkieBoy :) admittedly this wouldn't be a "traditional" African leg because we've had very few urban African legs presented matter of factly so here it is ^_^. That said it's a plane ride to
                    LEG 8 - Moteng Valley, Lesotho - which *is* your 'traditional' African leg (plus hat dancing).
                    LEG 9 - to Andalucia, Spain - In 30 seasons how has there NOT been a route marker / task / Pit Stop (probably Pit Stop in this instance) in the Alhambra???
                    LEG 10 - to Gibraltar, UK - In 30 seasons how has there NOT been a route marker / task / Pit Stop (likely all three in this instance) in Gibraltar??? There's probably definitely a task involving sorting out the various currencies of the commonwealth and maybe a macquarie as well?
                    LEG 11 - to Tangier, Morocco - 3 countries in the same general geographic area is possibly overkill but the scope of each of the legs would differ, from the Spanish culture of Malaga to the emphasis on travel to get to Gibraltar to the chaos of Tangier <3
                    LEG 12 - to Washington, DC - right so this is possibly super self-serving but the TAR 22 leg suuuucked (acknowledging the Nationals fandom was really the most interesting thing they did); give me an eating challenge at Ben's Chili Bowl! Give me a DECENT nod to American history! Force teams on our unfortunate public transportation system  :sab! Give me some sort of variation of that one RB from TARCAN 4 in the National Arboretum (those who watched will know which one I'm referencing)! Plus, given how flights shake out this will either take place fully in darkness (in winter) or else have enough tasks that it ends in darkness (in summer) so this (https://www.google.com/search?q=national+building+museum&safe=off&biw=1440&bih=718&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiE-JWb64jQAhUk7oMKHcdaDNsQ_AUIBygC) would be a great finish line.

                    5 continents, 9 countries, and roughly 28,000 miles is on par with TAR 25 and 28 (and you could probably have leg 11 in another place; Scandinavia or Central America is probably enough to get to 30,000) with the benefit of being able to film at any point in the year.

                    It doesn't have to go around the world. It could stay in America, or even in just one city!

                    I always consider S18 to take place in Yokohama, a city in its own right. I think the only major urban centers that have had good legs are Bangkok and Amsterdam and maybe Sydney too?

                    Innyway, a fantasy TAR 30 to address these and other ~issues~

                    Show content
                    START - Los Angeles, CA - duh
                    LEG 1 -  to Chengdu, China - LUZERNLIO basically explained why such a leg would be great so I see no need to go further lol.
                    LEG 2 - to Luang Prabang, Laos - it literally comes up every other page here
                    LEG 3 - to Vang Vieng, Laos - adventure-type leg; if they can find a leg close enough to the karst cliffs it doubles as an Emmy nominee in the same vein as the leg in Ha Long Bay in TAR 10
                    LEG 4 - to Jaislamer, India - it occurs to me that my issue isn't that India is visited all the time, it's that we go to the same five cities again and again. Jaislamer, while relatively close to Jaipur, Jodhpur, and even Delhi, has enough (desert) and culture to make for a full leg.
                    LEG 5 - to Baku, Azerbaijan - so I rewatched TAR 20 after a bunch of people called it 'unmemorable' and as it turns out the Baku leg was really, REALLY bad. Since it seems TAR only 'fixes' one leg each season I suppose this is the one lol.
                    LEG 6 - Lankaran, Azerbaijan - recurring themes that this show tends to go to: a) intruding on people's weddings, b) intruding on people working at tea plantations, c) forcing teams to be shirtless for part of the leg. As it turns out Lankaran features ALL THREE and more!
                    LEG 7 - to Cape Town, South Africa - there you go, BourkieBoy :) admittedly this wouldn't be a "traditional" African leg because we've had very few urban African legs presented matter of factly so here it is ^_^. That said it's a plane ride to
                    LEG 8 - Moteng Valley, Lesotho - which *is* your 'traditional' African leg (plus hat dancing).
                    LEG 9 - to Andalucia, Spain - In 30 seasons how has there NOT been a route marker / task / Pit Stop (probably Pit Stop in this instance) in the Alhambra???
                    LEG 10 - to Gibraltar, UK - In 30 seasons how has there NOT been a route marker / task / Pit Stop (likely all three in this instance) in Gibraltar??? There's probably definitely a task involving sorting out the various currencies of the commonwealth and maybe a macquarie as well?

                    LEG 12 - to Washington, DC
                    it's very easy fly to Southeast Asia from Chengdu Or Chongqiong. Also XI'AN is not far from Chengdu.  High-speed rail will be finished at 2017. only 3 h from CD to XA.  But why not TAR to visit some Chinese villages. It‘s still safe and beautiful.  :cheer:  I’d like the route which back Afriaca again (like season 10)

                    I just want a decent leg in Tokyo, is that too much to ask? :(

                    Yeah, I feel they haven't yet captured Tokyo, if that makes sense  :funny:. It just seems that they focus on modern Japan, never traditional Japan (apart from S18 E3)

                    Even though the race has visited Tokyo four times, let's explore Kyoto or Nara for TAR 30. The nearest major airports in either Japanese cities are at Kansai Airport in Greater Osaka.

                    Yesss, I loved that <3

                    Btw, S15 Tokyo leg was GLAM in my opinion. I may be biased, as that was the first season of TAR I watched in full, but that roadblock was very entertaining! And the ARI was both fun and difficult. For a starting leg, which usually doesn't have a detour, it was really good. :P

                    Semarang actually has likely the same culture as Yogyakarta in S19... I think it will be a great route if the Indonesian legs are located outside the Java island. Just try Padang or Medan (in Sumatra), Manado or Makassar (in Sulawesi), Banjarmasin (in Borneo), or even Papua!

                    Even though TAR made so many poorly designed Japanese legs, I don't think I'm getting sick of Japan. :lol: Although I'd love to see other places too, like Hokkaido island or Okinawa. :colors I'm pretty sure there's more to Japan than what we've seen in TAR.



                    TAR should give Laos and Belize another chance. :hoot: The cancelled legs weren't their faults.

                    I also wanna see winter legs not in Europe, though I can't remember how many there were falling to this category. ???

                    Ok,

                    My point was that I didn't like the US Virgin Islands being featured on TAR25. This was my OPINON.

                    I understand that others liked it, but I didn't.

                    I'd probably make a leg (or two) in Guatemala before Belize but that's just me :-)

                    A shame Mexico City was used in TAR 28 because Mexico City - Antigua - Lake Atitlan would've been a pretty good run of countries if they were trying to save money.

                    Leg 13: Broken Hill, Australia to Santa Monica, California

                    This is a great route. Love how Bucharest, Brasov. Alexandra (even though I may never be visited, because it's in Egypt), Surabaya (needs another visit), Sydney's been visited FAR too many times but it's Australia, so  :conf:. BROKEN HILL IS BRILLANT! I don't think we had a proper visit in TAR18, however 2 legs in NSW is abit dodgy! Overall, great work Zac!

Just gotta love Taipei, Urumchi (even though China is overused), 2 Russian legs, Stockholm, BENIDORM!!! SANTO DOMINGO WITH MIAMI AS THE FINISH LINE!
                    An fantastic route!

                    Your Wishlist was certainly worth the wait Erbus111. Here are my thoughts:

                    What a great Starting Line! I would of also liked to see a challenge where they have to search through cells for their first clue!

                    THE FIRST LOCATION IS JUST GLAM!  :colors

                    India is overused, but Chennai certainly isn't! Great choice!

                    Sri LANKA!  :yess: :hoot: :hearts: :conf: :wohoo: :cheer:

                    Egypt! This just gets better and better!

                    Romania. Don't even know where that is!  ???

                    Hamburg is a good choice!

                    Wales? Don't really like the choice, when you could go anywhere else in the UK.

                    Cancun YES!

                    ORLANDO DOUBLES YES AND FINISH LINE AT MAGIC KINGDOM OMG!

                    Overall a great season, which (I think), would rate very, very well!

                    Leg 01: Louisville, Kentucky to Bilbao, Spain

                    Louisville is a great city but sadly is not an International airport...teams would have to transit thru Atlanta or elsewhere which is nice to avoid.:(

                    Louisville could be a good spot for maybe a Finish Line maybe, but not a good place for a Starting Line.

                    They could start in Frankfort (the capital of Kentucky) maybe Zac!

                    You can't just randomly hop up a place into your wishlist. You do the research. Anyway, Frankfort is just a city with about 22,000 people. Small. No need for a airport to be located there.  :funny:

                    I've told u this before. It is an Australian external territory, which means Australia 'owns' it.

                    We really don't need to label people Zach, by their sex, sexual preferences, or religious beliefs in this day and age .

                    We are all humans, we are all in this together.

                    So grandfathers would do just fine.

                    There's always transits and stopovers, so move on to a different airport first then to the destination airport.

                    The Race should really visit Ibiza  :funny:. A detour involving Ibiza's Rave's would be the funniest thing :funny:. Then halfway during the leg take a short ferry to Formentera for a quiet Roadblock with culture and not drunk British people  :funny: :funny:.

                    Speaking of islands, Europe has tonnes. Recently we have seen a few with Sicily, Malta & Mallorca. But there are so many to choose from. The Spanish Canary Islands or the Portuguese Azores & Madeira. Even better would be visits to Greek Islands such as Rhodes, Mykonos & Santorini. I wouldn't mind seeing Cyprus aswell.

                    The Mediterranean houses many great treasures. A return visit to Croatia would be amazing as there are so many beautiful locations. maybe skip Dubrovnik and go to Split, Hvar or Pula. I hope they go to Plitvice Lakes NP. Montenegro & Albania are also great locations for legs. Other Balkan nations such as Serbia (Belgrade & Novi Sad), Bosnia (Mostar & Sarajevo) & Slovenia (Bled & Ljubljana) would be amazing.

                    What I've been wanting most out of Europe is a return to Romania. Visits to Bucharest, Brasov, Sibiu, Signisoara & Cluj. Such a beautiful and gothic country. BUDAPEST & PRAGUE! They haven't been visited since S6 and S15 respectively, they are the some of the most Beautiful cities and they deserve to been unraveled more. Also in the Czech Republic I'd Love to see the town of Česky Krumlov. Return visits to the Baltics would be lovely too, especially if it was Latvia.

                    Even in the more common countries there are tonnes of places begging for a visit or return.

                    Stockholm, Sweden (Biased its my favourite  :))
                    Bergen, Norway (Biased too)
                    Saint Petersburg, Russia
                    Helsinki, Finland
                    Iceland in General
                    Dresden, Germany (Despite S22's random & pointless visit)
                    Cologne, Germany
                    Rothenburg, Germany
                    Strasbourg, France
                    Boardeaux, France
                    Madrid, Spain
                    Florence, Italy
                    Puglia, Italy
                    Dublin, Ireland
                    York, United Kingdom
                    The Scottish Highlands, United Kingdom


                    Also this is super biased but they need to visit Ölüdeniz, Turkey. It's safe (Most of Turkey is despite the media). This place is stunning, there would obviously be a task Paragliding off the mountain which I was blessed to be able to do last year. A visit to the ghost town in Kayakoy, the Fethiye Fish Market and a pit stop at either the Blue Lagoon or in the Gorge at Saklikent National Park.

                    The race would visit Latvia as well. It is the only Baltic country has not yet visited. Riga is a nice place to go.

                    And even Bulgaria would be thrilled to go with beautiful older monasteries and orthodox churches. Places in Bulgaria like Sofia, Plovdiv, Burgas or Varna are better to see.

                    I have been to Riga many times in my life, with the most recent occasion in mid-December.
                    It is a very populated city and tasks in the old town region would provide an amazing chaotic urban leg!

                    I feel like TAR is presently on the 'throw it in the air and see if it sticks' course of routing, thus an unrealistic but still feasibly possible routing:

                    LEG 1 - Los Angeles, CA to Manila, Philippines
                    LEG 2 - to Atauro Is., East Timor1
                    LEG 3 - to Ainaro, East Timor [NEL]
                    LEG 4 - to Baku, Azerbaijan
                    LEG 5 - to Novi Sad, Serbia2,3 [KOR]
                    LEG 6 - to Herceg Novi, Montenegro
                    LEG 7 - to Amman, Jordan
                    LEG 8 - to Petra NP, Jordan [NEL]
                    LEG 9 - to Simisiut, Greenland, Denmark4
                    LEG 10 - to Newcastle, England
                    LEG 11 - to North Brabant province, Netherlands5
                    LEG 12 - to Seattle, WA

                    Notes-
                    1 - if I could find flights to Dili, then so could any reasonable travel agent TAR paid to stay open the entire night.  :)
                    2 - teams would fly from Baku to Belgrade and then drive themselves from there (not for long though lol)
                    3 - there is, conveniently enough, a daily bus from Novi Sad to Budva, which is close enough for teams to drive themselves (again!)
                    4 - actually viable and not -AS- aggressively expensive or difficult to do; Phil would definitely need a lead up before and some way to get ahead of teams afterward.
                    5 - teams travel by ferry from Newcastle to Amsterdam, then drive several hundred kilometers to get to Eindhoven for most of the leg and Biesbosch for the Pit Stop

                    With the whole Fiji and Taiwan sponsoring that one casting call, I made a route that features them that I would love for Season 30.

                    1. Nadi, Fiji
                    2. Melbourne, Australia (flights get in at late afternoon, giving time for a nightlife task)
                    3. Tasmania, Australia
                    4. Taipei, Taiwan (and other spots via train, Taiwan would want that)
                    5. Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
                    6. Hyderabad, India (a pearl/diamond task to set it apart from other India legs)
                    7. Alexandria, Egypt
                    8. Prague, Czech Republic (and rural areas too)
                    9. Freetowne, Sierra Leone
                    10. Sierra Leone
                    11. Dublin, Ireland (and rural areas too)
                    12. Boston, USA

                    5 Continents, 10 Countries, and Over 32,000 Miles!

                    I would like TAR explore more to japan. maybe took part in kabuki for detour, perform taiko for roadblock
                    or they can look for clue in mizu shobai district(http://s1.postimage.org/143o6jsg4/image.gif)

                    As ianthebalance suggested on his post above, a sponsorship from the casting call shown above that includes Fiji and Taiwan would include the route for season 30.

                    START: Pasadena City Hall, Pasadena, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)

                    2: Nadi, Fiji (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/ba/Flag_of_Fiji.svg/22px-Flag_of_Fiji.svg.png) (possible rugby task in Lautoka)
                    3: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png)
                    4: Taipei, Taiwan (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/Flag_of_the_Republic_of_China.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_Republic_of_China.svg.png)
                    5: Siem Reap, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png) (revisit Angkor Wat and rural areas)
                    6: Port Elizabeth, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png) (wildlife and water sports tasks)*
                    7: Cape Town, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png)
                    8: Rovaniemi, Lapland, Finland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Flag_of_Finland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Finland.svg.png) (ice plunging and cross country skiing tasks in spring) 2^*
                    9: Brussels, Belgium (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Flag_of_Belgium_%28civil%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Belgium_%28civil%29.svg.png) (and nearby towns)
                    10: Madrid, Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.svg.png) (TAR would get its first visit through the Spanish capital) ^
                    11: Dublin, Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.svg.png)

                    5 continents, 10 countries and 35,000 miles

                    * - Self-driving leg
                    ^ - Involves overnight train ride

                    1 - Teams would take a single provided flight from Los Angeles to Nadi with a scheduled departure time at 11:30 pm and arrive at 5:50 am. Once landing in Nadi, they must take one of three charter flights to Malolo Lailai Islands within 20-minutes apart
                    2 - Teams are told to travel by plane to Helsinki, Finland and would get their next clue at Helsinki Airport to take an overnight train to Finnish Lapland (think TAR 22)

                    ...well this is awkward; here's a TAR 30 prospective route. Only 11 legs because #budget but

                    LEG 1 - Los Angeles, CA to Calgary to Banff National Park, Canada*1
                    LEG 2 - to Dublin, Ireland
                    LEG 3 - to Waterford, Ireland*
                    LEG 4 - to the Black Forest, Germany*2
                    LEG 5 - to Malkerns, Swaziland3
                    LEG 6 - to Nelspruit, South Africa*
                    LEG 7 - to Mumbai, India
                    LEG 8 - to Taichung, Taiwan
                    LEG 9 - to the Yasawa Islands, Fiji4
                    LEG 10 - to the Sabeto Valley, Fiji*
                    LEG 11 - to Los Angeles, CA

                    5 continents, 9 countries, 30,000 miles~

                    Notes-
                    *self-driving leg
                    1 - teams would arrive in Calgary at night for a task or two, then travel by bus to Banff the next morning (think TAR 28)
                    2 - teams would be told their next clue was located in Freiburg, Germany, inside a car parked at the train station, leaving teams to ~*figure out*~ how to get there (what airport to fly into, how to get to Freiburg from there, etc)
                    3 - teams would travel by train to Frankfurt then fly to Manzini in Swaziland, where they're given a hired driver and a map and are told to direct him or her to wherever they want to go to
                    4 - teams fly into Nadi, then take a ferry to the Yasawas for the leg

                    So basically RFF's TAR 30  is

                    LA to Fiji
                    Fiji
                    Fiji to Australia
                    Australia to Taiwan
                    Taiwan to Philippines
                    Philippines
                    Philippines to South Africa
                    South Africa
                    South Africa to Finland
                    Finland to Spain
                    Spain to Ireland
                    Ireland to US

                    ...which is a pretty good route (double Philippines could be swapped for double Taiwan but whatever) and probably fits #21days12legs better than most recent seasons lol. I would gladly accept a producer credit if this got used :)

                    There were 2 sets I could think of :
                    the 1st one (aforementioned in a previous post on another topic) as follows [as per an oceania route] :
                    Leg 1 : New Zealand , and they could probably visit wellington.
                    Leg 2 : New Zealand (again), and this time they could delve into Maori cultures and customs.
                    Leg 3 : LAOS !!
                    Leg 4 : India (it is over visited I know) India is a very chaotic country and is also brimming with culture and traditions.
                    Leg 5 : Kazakhstan , visit long overdue from season 13. They could probably visit Almaty.
                    Leg 6 : Kyrgyzstan , this would be a 1st time visit and also teams could travel by bus from Almaty to Bishkek.
                    Leg 7 : Israel , they could visit Tel Aviv, the place is beautiful and a few beach themed activities could take place.
                    Leg 8 : Israel (again) , they could delve into Jewish culture and also if possible visit Rosh Hanikra (for its beautiful grottoes)
                    Leg 9 : Morocco , I know they had just visited it in season 25 but teams can really partake in a myriad of tasks here.
                    Leg 10 : Portugal , teams could travel over the strait of gibraltar and drive to portugal. There is quite a lot to do in portugal, but it eould especially be nice if the leg laid emphasis on the portuguese carnival.
                    Leg 11 : IBIZA ! it's a balearic island that (I think) TAR has never visited before and there's loads of fun activities to do there.
                    Leg 12 : Some quaint city along the eastern coast, not really sure.
                    ---
                    the 2nd one, as per an european route [I'm barring south america] :
                    Leg 1 : Canada ! I really think it'd be nice if they actually had a pit-stop in canada.
                    Leg 2 : Iceland; it has only been visited once before (Season 6) and I really think it's high time they visited it.
                    Leg 3 : Ireland; (same as iceland)
                    Leg 4 & Leg 5 : Any 2 parts of United Kingdom - Such as New England or Wales or Northern Ireland. Really, a culturally diverse place.
                    Leg 6 : Italy; probably Tuscany.
                    Leg 7 : Italy (again); probably visit Venice, and something similar to the leg 2 of season 4 detour and combine it with the detour in leg 4 of season 26.
                    Leg 8 : Pristina in Kosovo! This would be a 1st time visit and even though there might be not a lot to do in Kosovo, there is a lot of serb and albanian cultures at play here, so we could mess around with that.
                    Leg 9 : Any middle eastern country, really. Probably Qatar or Lebanon, some country that hasn't been visited before.
                    Leg 10 & Leg 11 : Australia ! Like most people have suggested, one leg in a metropolis like Melbourne and another in the outback.
                    Leg 12 : They could probably visit Hawai'i again or they could just opt for some city on the Western coast.
                    Thoughts ??

                    Posted this from TAR 30 Pre-Race Speculation thread:

                    Is there a chance for Iceland to be visited? Imagine racing beneath the northern lights! :hoot:

                    Hopefully! I mean, they could ANYWHERE in Europe this season IMO.

                    They might do a leg in Denmark and off to Iceland!

                    I really hope Finland would be awesome for a visit in TAR 30 that has a Northern Light appearance in springtime.

                    Ok so I made a route that i want to see on TAR30
                    Leg 1- New Orleans to Nassau, The Bahamas: Tropical scenery, marine tasks hopefully.
                    Leg 2- The Bahamas to Valparaiso, Chile
                    Leg 3 Chile to Cape Town, South Africa - SWIMMING WITH SHARKS!
                    Leg 4- South Africa to Stockholm, Sweden
                    Leg 5- Sweden to Reykjavik, Iceland - Racing beneath the northern lights would be AMAZING!
                    Leg 6- Iceland to Barcelona, Spain - Barcelona is a very Cultural place, maybe an Architecture or Art related task about The history of Spain.
                    Leg 7- Ibiza, Spain
                    Leg 8- Spain to Yangon, Myanmar - Myanmar deserves to be in this race. The temples there are so many!
                    Leg 9- Myanmar to Philippines - Not because its my home country, I would like to see them racing in Cebu or Bohol or ever Palawan!
                    Leg 10- Philippines to Melbourne, Australia- Great place to host a leg. Beautiful Urban City. And Australia is already Overdue!
                    Leg 11- Australia to Fiji - Heard of Fiji alot, its basically a Paradise! I think it'll do great as a penultimate leg.
                    Leg 12- Fiji to Seattle - Seattle will be a great spot to host the final leg. A task similar to Dallas in season 26 at the reunion tower, do it in the Space Needle! Overlooking the skyline of this place would be so Jawdropping!

                    The chances that most of the places in this route to be visited is Very Slim. But I guess nothing is impossible right? :conf:

                    very good wishlist, however if they come to Melbourne, lets hope that they do NOT use public transport! I experienced this VERY ugly today!

                    (First post after being a long-time lurker!)

                    I've always created scenarios in my head as to what route I would enjoy, if I ever got on TAR. I also had the idea that there would always be a new country visited each episode, just to add more variety. Just having fun with destinations, this would be an awesome season:

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA → Tokyo, Japan
                    Leg 2: Tokyo, Japan → Osaka, Japan → Busan, South Korea
                    Leg 3: Busan, South Korea → Ürümqi, China
                    Leg 4: Ürümqi, China → Doha, Qatar
                    Leg 5: Doha, Qatar → Luanda, Angola
                    Leg 6: Luanda, Angola → Tel Aviv, Israel
                    Leg 7: Tel Aviv, Israel → Riga, Latvia
                    Leg 8: Riga, Latvia → Oppland, Norway
                    Leg 9: Oppland, Norway → Lyon, France
                    Leg 10: Lyon, France → Quito, Ecuador
                    Leg 11: Quito, Ecuador → Santiago, Dominican Republic
                    Leg 12: Santiago, Dominican Republic → New York City, USA

                    I assume the travel on leg 2 is done entirely without flight and thus I love it  :sab

                    Speaking of potential torture, I tried to make TAR 30: #BudgetRealness but how it shook out the only actual budget friendly thing done was that there are only 11 legs  :funny:. Before you judge me, here-

                    tl;dr:
                    LEG 1 - Los Angeles, CA to Vladivostok, Russia
                    LEG 2 - to Donghae, South Korea
                    LEG 3 - to Luang Prabang, Laos
                    LEG 4 - to Luang Prabang, Laos
                    LEG 5 - to Petra National Park, Jordan
                    LEG 6 - to Grand Comore, Comoros
                    LEG 7 - to Moheli, Comoros
                    LEG 8 - to Cape Town, South Africa
                    LEG 9 - to Ordino, Andorra
                    LEG 10 - to Barcelona, Spain
                    LEG 11 - to Niagara Falls, NY

                    long winded
                    Show content
                    LEG 1 - Los Angeles, CA to Vladivostok, Russia
                    hooboy. So. LA start is obvious I feel no need to explain it yay done.
                    Russia is...kind of? really? very? controversial but as it turns out the farther East you get the more different cultures interweave with it, hence Vladivostok, as the ~San Francisco of Russia~ might prove a fun leg. Plus, for those of you who want a "harder" race, the only way to get flights with a decent time difference (in this case 3:20 vs 3:45 arrivals) is for teams to fly east from Russia, thus starting the race off with a bunch of jet lag yay  :conf:

                    LEG 2 - to Donghae, South Korea
                    There is, conveniently enough, a fairly long ferry from Vladivostok to Donghae in Korea - this ferry continues onto Japan and I seriously considered routing teams all the way to Japan but in the end 36 hours on a boat is torturous. *THEN* I was going to have teams take a train into Seoul but...certain...things prevented that. As it turns out Donghae has a fairly prevalent culture, focusing more on "traditional" Korea then the modern or generic or not at all culturally relevant aspects focused on in previous visits so here we are.

                    LEG 3 - to Luang Prabang, Laos
                    Since production now basically engineers the leg to get their desired outcome, there's enough time extended to the Pit Start to get teams into Luang Prabang around dusk for a leg focusing on shadow puppetry and night markets and whathaveyou  :bunny

                    LEG 4 - to Luang Prabang, Laos
                    I'm 90% sure this leg already exists so here we are #budget :)

                    LEG 5 - to Petra National Park, Jordan
                    So I've definitely suggested this...often...but I mean it's one of the few World Monuments that TAR hasn't visited (I was going to say 'not for lack of trying' but that was Survivor lol) and it's easy to get to and it's relatively inexpensive especially now so why not visit? It's your standard camel leg good for at least one laugh.

                    LEG 6 - to Grand Comore, Comoros
                    LEG 7 - to Moheli, Comoros
                    I feel like TAR is a little heavy handed with how they handle impoverished destinations, choosing usually to spend time in Africa and spend some sort of time noting that there are adorable children that go to school in spite of being poor which strikes me as tin-eared. Like...just make the tasks relevant to their culture and let the teams figure out and make commentary on it y'know? Bonus points because between legs 6 and 7 there's a fun ferry ride involved :)

                    LEG 8 - to Cape Town, South Africa
                    I'm choosing to assume something awful happened to BvM the last time he was in South Africa since that's really the only reason we haven't seen it in more than a decade o_O. 'Urban African legs' are an underutilized category on this show so here's another one for good measure. The best part is it's relatively well connected to everywhere, facilitating the next leg-

                    LEG 9 - to Ordino, Andorra
                    The first clue to this leg would be "Make your way to Andorra. Once there, find your next clue at the train station." and that's it  :conf: As it turns out, the most efficient way is to fly into either Barcelona or Toulouse and then traveling by bus; short of a motor accident they should arrive at roughly the same time (toward the end of the day, in case someone is foolhardy enough to try something else lol). From there, there's enough adventure sports and shopping to fill a leg.

                    LEG 10 - to Barcelona, Spain
                    Teams would travel by bus/train to Barcelona, arriving for their first clue in late afternoon (yes this is a night leg  :angel) and doing substantially better things than 'participating in this fake tomato fight (independent of whatever meltdowns would occur) or run through this maze'.

                    LEG 11 - to Niagara Falls, Ontario / NY
                    As it turns out, there's a decent amount of things to do in Niagara Falls other than 'go to a random park (that isn't actually that great from experience #justsaying) to do a memory challenge' so I figure it's high time to make up for that mediocre leg, especially since HD cameras would make Niagara all the more beautiful. Yes there's a task involving getting fairly close to the waterfalls but there's plenty to do involving casinos, wine, Nikolas Tesla, the traditional finale heights challenge at Skylon Tower (which is definitely not just a way to add a country or anything  :sab) and a memory task likely involving all the different forms of transportation encountered (by my count, there's two ferries, two trains, probably a tram or two, at least one bus, a camel, a helicopter, and knowing Phil probably a bicycle of some sort  :hoot:).

                    I know we just had some in 28, but I would LOVE to see some more Eastern Europe visits (Latvia, Lithuania, Croatia...) as well as maybe Laos.  We've yet to see it on an English-speaking version!

                    I'd take 11 great legs over 12 mediocre ones.

                    Not to mention the 11 leg seasons tended to be more creative - 12 had a bunch of random countries while 13 had a bunch of new and challenging tasks in old countries  :bunny

                    Exactly!

                    Given TAR's continually declining ratings, CBS should just shorten the Race instead of cancelling :)

                    I'd take 11 great legs over 12 mediocre ones.

                    Not to mention the 11 leg seasons tended to be more creative - 12 had a bunch of random countries while 13 had a bunch of new and challenging tasks in old countries  :bunny

                    Going off of that, here's The Amazing Race 30: Keep Hope Alive edition. I did the research and gound that this fits #11legs21days like TAR 12 and 13 without a 'keep racing' leg.

                    LEG 1 - Los Angeles, CA to Tokyo, Japan
                    LEG 2 - to Tokyo, Japan

                    So...this is equal parts #budget and trying to get a good Tokyo leg in (for perspective, the city has been visited 4 times and had 0 good legs welp)

                    LEG 3 - to Vang Vieng, Laos
                    90% sure this leg exists but still! Bus sides in SE Asia tend to be great (if TAR 1, 2 and 19 aren't enough then TARA 1 <3) and this necessitated a roughly 10 hour one yay

                    LEG 4 - Ein Gedi, Israel
                    So this really could be done anywhere in the Middle East (Al Wafrah in Kuwait <3 Jebel Sands in Oman <3 Petra <3) but this set of countries works with Israel so here we are! NEL bc there are camels :)

                    LEG 5 - Eindhoven, Netherlands
                    Teeeeeeeechnically this is the only Eurpean leg so I see no reason for it not to be somewhere. Let it be the gnome leg assuming we still do these things, given them a car in AMS and let the fun commence  :bunny

                    LEG 6 - Ilulissat, Greenland
                    LEG 7 - Sisimiut, Greenland


                    I don't know i it's truly possible to make two legs in Greenland but if we can somehow manage two legs in:
                    - the Botswanan bush
                    - Swedish/Norwegian Lapland
                    - (ostensibly two in) Zanzibar
                    - Sabah in Malaysua

                    then two in Greenland shouldn't be an issue. The -second- of the two starts with an ~*Intersection*~ and charter helicopters and like...two ARIs followed by a regular Detour, RB,and NEL <3

                    LEG 8: Mahebourg (but really most of), Mauritius
                    So this was a fun leg originally in TAR 10 with the teams being routed several thousand miles out of the way just to get there <3 followed by manual drive <3 on the left side <3 aaaaand this leg basically does all of that AND eliminated someone too  :bunny

                    LEG 9: Malkerns, Swaziland
                    So the only way teams are able to fly this route is by waiting 10 hours at JNB but...that's Subsaharan Africa amirite? This ends up a self-drive leg even though it's a small distance because...

                    LEG 10: Johannesburg, South Africa
                    ...they get to DRIVE to Johannesburg which is enough to have a night leg for the first time...ever? Johannesburg is a global city with plenty of history, which means we can treat it like Paris or London or Rome, to say nothing of how those legs actually turned out.

                    LEG 11: Atlanta, GA
                    At first this was solely to have the finish line on top of Stone Mountain but that's asking for a lawsuit so...peach's house? :) There's plenty of things to do since they did all of three things last time? In my mind there's a clue that sends them to one if the numerous Peachtrees because I'm terrible and, assuming CBS wouldn't mind the competition, a task at CNN. <3

                    My sister has a friend who got me some inside route-spoilers. The people who make the route nd design the tasks are considering these 4 countries for if 30 does happen: Switzerland, Germany, Japan, Australia. If its true, these places should make up about 6 legs

                    This sounds interesting. Switzerland should have one leg, Germany could have two, Japan could only have one and Australia MUST have two!

                    Anyway, this sounds good!

                    My wishes right now is that:

                    1. Amazing Race gets renewed for more seasons until it reaches the 100-country visit. Currently it stands at 88 countries.

                    2. It gets a way better timeslot, this is a family show.

                    3. Get major sponsors again, like Hertz car rental company for self-driving involved legs.


                    4. Cast a combination of "normal" people and a few "famous" people into the mix with diversity (Asians, Hispanics, African-Americans, European descent). We need moms, middle-aged married people, grandparents, astronauts, chefs, plus-size people, military-related people, olympians. It must be relatable to all age demographics, shapes, race, etc..

                    5. Aggressive marketing on part of the producers to get the show buzzing.

                    The reason why TAR doesn't go to Africa, is because the countries are pretty dangerous. Some countries also have some terrible diseases.

                    Still, it's a very good cheap place to visit.

                    We also had a butcher and a professional snowboarder :tup:

                    Also regarding Africa there are a handful of countries that just Are Not Safe to visit but I think the greater issue is that there's little infrastructure in many of them (and in fact some of them are rather expensive because of it). I would say Uganda is a good country safe for their worrysome stances on human rights but that's a separate issue.

                    Rwanda, Benin/Togo, Lesotho and Swaziland (the latter two with South Africa) would be great to host two legs IMO. You could even squeak out a leg or two in Kenya or Egypt if planned properly.

                    A double leg in Dakar, Senegal then The Gambia would be cool.

                    Dakar would be a manic leg with another homage to Île de Goree. The Gambia would visit the beach and have a bird watching task in Marrakissa.

                    Honestly I think there's juuuuust enough to have a full leg at Île de Goree (maybe start with a Switchback to the salt harvesting at Lac Rose) and then a chaotic leg in Dakar.

                    That said my dream involves teams using ground transportation to travel between two African countries (or two Asian ones...or two South American ones...or two *North* American ones)  :bunny

                    Thinking about TAR29's individuals twist, I think it will be adapted by other franchises soon. I hope to see it soon on other franchises.

                    Meanwhile, imagine the same twist on an all-star season, wherein there are 22 former racers who are not racing with their partner from their original season, and their partner is not with them in the all-star season too. However, instead of only first impressions, racers will also have to consider how well their fellow all-star racers did in their original season.

                    If TAR 30 would happen to film this (Northern Hemisphere) summer, the cities would visit: Japan (Osaka/Kyoto) and Australia (Melbourne and Brisbane). No Germany and Switzerland please for being overused in recent seasons. Some Scandinavian/Nordic countries hadn't visited in more than 10+ seasons. Finland (Rovaniemi) and Sweden (Gothenburg) for Northern European leg.

                    Melbourne and HOBART!!!! We have seen Brisbane before! Japan is overused as well. However, I think they will film in the Northern Hemisphere's winter, just because it seems like the casting calls will go til July.

                    Wrong. the casting calls will end the final week of June (see applications thread; link (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,25741.300.html)). Final selection of casting teams will be selected in early/mid July and the filming will start around mid July and end in August.

                    Bourkie, Brisbane has not been visited since TAR 4 and never hosted a full leg.

                    Claude, I'm just saying that I believe there are better places (cities), to visit in Australia, than Brisbane. How about we give Tasmania a visit, which hasn't been visited by ANY TAR before?

                    I'm sorry if sounded rude but I just believe that there are much better cities in Australia to visit!

                    With justmjlayson's wishlist route suggestion for season 30 (as the show has recently renewed for that season), here's the revised route with slight changes.

                    Similar leg wishlist design in my old post: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1189014.html#msg1189014

                    START: Pasadena, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png)
                    Leg 2: Brisbane and Gold Coast, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png)

                    Leg 4: George Town, Penang, Malaysia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Flag_of_Malaysia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Malaysia.svg.png)
                    Leg 5: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Flag_of_Malaysia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Malaysia.svg.png)
                    Leg 6: Paarl and Stellenbosch, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png)
                    Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png)
                    Leg 8: Rovaniemi, Lapland, Finland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Flag_of_Finland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Finland.svg.png)
                    Leg 9: Gothenburg, Sweden (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4c/Flag_of_Sweden.svg/22px-Flag_of_Sweden.svg.png)
                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.svg.png)
                    Leg 11: Dublin, Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.svg.png)
                    Leg 12: San Francisco, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)

                    Australia (18) + Japan (26) + Malaysia (24) + South Africa (7) + Finland (10) + Sweden (25) + Spain (24) + Ireland (12) = Total combination would be 146.

                    Awesome! I love the legs you made before! but I'd added mine with Myanmar/Laos and Jordan legs as Legs 5 and 6, then Czech Republic as Legs 7 and 8, Leg 9 Rimini, Italy >  San Marino, Madrid, Spain as Leg 10 and penultimate leg or Leg 11 Lisbon and Algarve, Portugal.

                    It's time for my new Season 30 Wishlist Route (with Fiji and Taiwan thrown in due to the casting calls)

                    Season 30
                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (2 flights, arriving 30 minutes apart in the morning)
                    Leg 2: Hobart, Australia (Tasmania, mining task, snow task if filmed in like July, SELF-DRIVING)
                    Leg 3: Nadi, Fiji (CBS could even hype both Survivor and TAR in Fiji like "Trouble in Paradise" or something like that  :funny: )
                    Leg 4: Kaohsiung, Taiwan (arrive at night, task at night market, overnight rest
                    Leg 5: Taipei, Taiwan (Taipei is where the pit stop is, but teams must use the rail system to get to various spots throughout the leg as they make their way up the island)
                    Leg 6: Bangalore, India (technology based leg)
                    Leg 7: Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan (start in Bishkek, eventually make their way south, eventually a camping pit stop, SELF-DRIVING)
                    Leg 8: Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan (Pit Stop in Bishkek, but make their way through another way back to it, SELF-DRIVING)
                    Leg 9: Budapest, Hungary (classic European city leg)
                    Leg 10: Prague, Czech Republic (Pit Stop in Prague, but travel to east Czech Republic by train, rural areas, that awesome Church of the Bones other TARs have gone to in Kutna Hora, SELF-DRIVING)
                    Leg 11: Alexandria, Egypt (Ancient Seaport City in EGYPT! And unless i'm mistaken, one of the safest easily accessible areas in Egypt)
                    Leg 12: Philadelphia, USA (City of Brotherly Love! And can easily make the long journey via one stopover in Doha, arriving at the perfect time of 8:40 AM)

                    5 CONTINENTS, 9 COUNTRIES, 2 NEW COUNTRIES (Fiji, Kyrgyzstan), 3 COUNTRIES ONLY VISITED ONCE BEFORE (Hungary, Czech Republic, Egypt), AND MANY NEW CITIES

                    I think I've said this previously, but I would want to see a Leg 1 in the Philippines. TAR Aus 2 has done this. I want the US to follow. :hrt: :conf: :hoot:
                    Me too! I co-sign this wish.  :hoot:

                    A first Leg Manila Leg would be great, especially one that gets teams around more of Metro Manila and exposes them to the traffic more than TAR25 did lol
                    As much as I need Jig or Pig on TARUS, I would then like a 2nd Leg up North. None of the Philippine Legs so far have really had that "cultural" feel to them. Tasks that show off distinctly Filipino culture. I think the Cordillera region would be a great location for some very Filipino tasks. Maybe a good Igorot dance Road Block or something.

                    Since the Philippine Legs so far (TAR5, TAR25, TARAu, TAR Ukraine) have been mostly tropical or urban Manila Legs), I definitely would prefer rural and cultural Legs if ever TARUS returns to the Philippines.

                    How about this...
                    Leg 1 - Similar to TARAu's Leg design. A simple task in Manila (Quiapo balut? lol) before hopping on an overnight bus to any Cordillera province. And a Pig or Jig Detour could definitely be staged with an Igorot dance instead. And make it a Limited Stations Detour to guarantee both Detours are featured. Hehe.
                    Leg 2 - Ilocos Leg. Either Vigan (Ilocos Sur) or a day-long, TARPH2-style Ilocos Norte-wide Leg (Laoag, Paoay, Bangui Windmills). Highly unlikely in today's TAR where Legs can last just a few hours, but this is a wishlist thread after all.  :D

                    Since Taiwan and Fiji did some sponsoring, I would make some wishlists for them too... :funny:

                    TARPHDME did a Taiwan Leg (https://dryedmangoez.com/2015/08/25/the-amazing-race-philippines-all-stars-dryedmangoez-edition-6-leg-2-taiwan/)  :funny: :grins:

                    But they could do something with tea and definitely bubble tea in Taichung. Looking back at the TAR12 and TAR19 Taiwan Legs, they were both kinda meh. So if TAR30 does go to Taiwan because of its sponsorship/incentives, I'd assume maybe 2 Legs with more distinct Taiwanese culture and tasks.

                    It's time for my new Season 30 Wishlist Route (with Fiji and Taiwan thrown in due to the casting calls)

                    Season 30
                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (2 flights, arriving 30 minutes apart in the morning)
                    Leg 2: Hobart, Australia (Tasmania, mining task, snow task if filmed in like July, SELF-DRIVING)
                    Leg 3: Kyoto, Japan (Waiter task in Osaka's Dotonbori area, train travel to Kyoto and Pit Stop is at Kiyomizu-dera)

                    Leg 1 probably be a NEL/KOR with a overnight ferry from Melbourne to Devonport; choose a marked car to drive to Cradle Mountain for a Detour, then Roadblock and Active Route Marker task in Hobart just like TAR 29 Leg 8.

                    So...here's my TAR30: Cost-Saving Realness edition

                    START: duh
                    LEG 1: to Dublin, Ireland
                    LEG 2: to Bratislava, Slovakia
                    LEG 3: to Aggtelek National Park, Hungary
                    LEG 4: to Kathmandu, Nepal
                    LEG 5: to Taipei, Taiwan
                    LEG 6: to Nantou Valley, Taiwan (via Taichung)
                    LEG 7: to Gold Coast, Australia
                    LEG 8: to Nadi, Fiji
                    LEG 9: to Savusavu, Fiji
                    LEG 10: to Santiago, Chile
                    LEG 11: to Mt. Aconcagua, Argentina (via Mendoza)
                    LEG 12: to Miami, FL

                    For the most part there's a bunch of countries with relatively low cost of living or else countries which will probably be sponsoring a part of the race yay. Additionally:
                    - Australia is there because there's not really a great way to facilitate going from Asia to Fiji and NZ, while probably more impressive, was visited more recently.
                    - Santiago is a sore spot, yes, but going west to east is the best way to capitalize filming in Fiji and I didn't want to just be like Taiwan-Taiwan-Australia-Fiji-Fiji; that's obvious, no?
                    - Two instances of driving across country borders  :bunny
                    - An actual summer leg in Miami  :conf:

                    I'd like to see Spain next season, it hasn't been visited since S24, and it really deserves a visit. I'm a bit tired of visits to Germany (Seasons 26,22,20,19,16,14,9,6,3) 9 times , France (Seasons 28,27,26,21,16,10,6,4,1) 9 times and Italy (Seasons 29,25,24,20,12,9,4,1) 8 times, over and over again.

                    Spain was last visited on Season 24, and it's only been visited 3 times (24-Sevilla,21-Mallorca,10-Barcelona). They could really visit Madrid or the north of Spain (Santander, Bilbao or San Sebastian). I'm not counting TAR 3 as there wasn't any task on Spain, they just went to Algeciras to take the ferry to Morocco (although it was Spain where Aaron & Arianne had a problem with their car and the Spanish Police helped them).

                    Portugal could also be a good choice, last visited on Season 23. And I think it has only been visited 3 times (S3, S23).

                    After the Ninh Binh Leg, I'd like a similar type of Leg in the Philippines. Maybe in the hottest, literally, city in the country, Tuguegarao, Cagayan. Like seriously. If you take a plane there, the whiplash between the freezing A/C in the plane and the scorching heat once they open the doors and you walk down the stairs is insane! Especially in summer.

                    I'd love for teams to experience that, maybe after a cold Leg in Russia or something.  lol

                    He visited five though ???

                    That said "single U-Turn for both" Detours doesn't really work to me; if everyone chooses the same detour to start (or if only one person chooses side A vs side B) then it renders it pointless. You would have to force each task to be limited station which seems like a cop out.

                    Let me rephrase that. There would be 2 different U-turns. So there would a detour related rural/farmland China with a U-turn board and a detour about the inner city with a U-turn board. Teams can only get u-turned once in this leg, so no one can get u-turned at both boards.

                    That said "single U-Turn for both" Detours doesn't really work to me; if everyone chooses the same detour to start (or if only one person chooses side A vs side B) then it renders it pointless. You would have to force each task to be limited station which seems like a cop out.

                    Let me rephrase that. There would be 2 different U-turns. So there would a detour related rural/farmland China with a U-turn board and a detour about the inner city with a U-turn board. Teams can only get u-turned once in this leg, so no one can get u-turned at both boards.

                    I suppose then my issue is, since you have two legs in Hangzhou anyway, why bother with a double Detour leg? One leg stays in the city (with U-Turn), one leg is in the tea plantations and whatnot (with U-Turn). I could see this working in a case where it's *one* leg (preferably self-driving) in an entire region (like the Greece leg in TAR 29; have the first Detour and U-Turn in Arachova just like in reality and have the second Detour/U-Turn after the stadium task.

                    That said if you're keen to keep it, just have a single leg in Hangzhou and the second leg somewhere else I guess. ???

                    But it would be slightly hard to plan due to the visa requirement and idk if WRP would bother with that these days.

                    I had this really weird idea of having an entire season of TAR in America, for some reason. Maybe they could make a spin off and call it The American Race? I don't know. My basis for this race was that at least to legs had to be in each area of America (West, Mountain States, Midwest, Southeast, and Northeast). If anyone else wants to try and make a season based on this, go ahead. Maybe I've been watching Season 8 too much.

                    Starting Line ~ Echo Park
                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, CA --> Long Beach, CA (Self Drive)
                    Leg 2: Long Beach, CA --> Seattle, WA
                    Leg 3: Seattle, WA --> Salt Lake City, UT
                    Leg 4: Salt Lake City, UT --> Santa Fe, NM
                    Leg 5: Santa Fe, NM --> Madison/Wisconsin Dells, WI
                    Leg 6: Madison, WI --> Chicago, IL (Self Drive)
                    Leg 7: Chicago, IL --> Baltimore, MD
                    Leg 8: Baltimore, MD --> Washington D.C. (Self Drive)
                    Leg 9: Washington D.C. --> Richmond, VA
                    Leg 10: Richmond, VA --> Nashville, TN
                    Leg 11: Nashville, TN --> Orlando, FL
                    Finish Line ~ Raymond James Stadium

                    Don't torture teams by having them self-drive to or in DC  :funny:
                    Instead torture teams by forcing them to ride Amtrak and then public transportation for the duration of the leg.   :sab

                    Also the only issue I have is one that would apply to this kind of race in general, which is that there's too many areas of America to distill into 12 legs IMO. You've got a very good attempt (certainly better than FE having multiple legs in the Southeast and in MST land) but I feel like it's the kind of thing that would make for an ongoing series, much like how TAR Canada attempts to organize their race.

                     I've been thinking about an Amazing Race in the states for so long. We have so much interesting scenery and history that they could do at least 10 seasons here. Plus there would probably be a whole lot more sightings.

                    The official show is unlikely to return to a USA-only race after Family Edition, but I've always wanted to see a version of the race around the US organized and ran by a fan.

                    I'd actually like a spin-off of TAR in US areas only, but it might not be a success after TAR8. :(

                    Meanwhile, I wish TAR is not always having pre-detour U-turns or W-turns. I'd like a mix of it depending where it fits best. Also, not having them announced on any clue would be a great surprise factor in my opinion.

                    Here's some more stuff I thought of for American Race.

                    1. New Leg

                    Because of my twist, I added a new first leg that would be from Honolulu, HI --> Los Angeles, CA.
                    Also apologies to ZBC because I didn't think a map of my route would be made. The starting line will be along a beach.

                    2. The Pitstops
                    Leg 1: Echo Park
                    Leg 2: The Walter Pyramid
                    Leg 3: Space Needle
                    Leg 4: The Tracy Aviary
                    Leg 5: San Miguel Chapel
                    Leg 6: Noah's Ark Water Park (After RB with Point of No Return Slide)
                    Leg 7: The Field Museum
                    Leg 8: Fort McHenry
                    Leg 9: Rock Creek Park
                    Leg 10: Petersburg National Park
                    Leg 11: Centennial Park
                    (Note, with the exception of leg 5, there are no challenges related to each location, other than getting there. That way, detours and road blocks can relate to other famous places in each city).

                    3. 'Twist'
                    Like the recent season 29, teams are formed at start with 22 random strangers

                    Legs 1, 4, and 8 will be non elimination, with leg 2 being a double elimination

                    Leg 3 will have 2 detours, with a u-turn board at the start of each detour. No information other than location will be given about the detours. You can only u-turn a team once and any team that is u-turned at the first board will NOT be u-turned at the second board. No teams will know about the u-turn boards ahead of time. Leg 7 will be a normal double u-turn.

                    Leg 6 will have the FF

                    Leg 11 will have two roadblocks.

                    Erebus, your idea of 2 detours and 2 single u-turns in a single leg sound amazing to me, but...
                    It would be really hard to execute, if we try to imagine it in actual TAR. Just imagine a scenario, where the 1st team passes the first board without u-turning, but decides to u-turn at the second board, without knowing that a certain team was already u-turned after they left.
                    Or, even, the 1st-place team might be so in front that they u-turn somebody at the second board BEFORE someone else arrives at the first board and u-turns the same team.

                    There will be a slot in the upper right corner for any team that gets u-turned first. This is where a picture of them will be. That way, production teams can contact who got u-turned first and mark it on the boards.

                    I'd actually like a spin-off of TAR in US areas only, but it might not be a success after TAR8. :(

                    Meanwhile, I wish TAR is not always having pre-detour U-turns or W-turns. I'd like a mix of it depending where it fits best.

                    Meh. If they're going to have the U-Turn before the Detour they might as go all the way and make it a Must Vote U-Turn like in international seasons; that way there's guaranteed drama. That said,

                    Also, not having them announced on any clue would be a great surprise factor in my opinion.

                    YES.  :bunny If they do this I would even be okay with the unlimited U-Turns coming back and there being three or four in a season.

                    So a bit of a wishlist here for an Amazing Race: New Zealand

                    Leg 1: Auckland, New Zealand - Alice Springs, Australia (I feel that the Northern Territory is underused and Alice Springs is an incredible place. A non-elimination leg to start the race off)

                    Leg 2: Alice Springs, Australia - Tokyo, Japan (Tokyo is a great place and I feel that with the leg in South Korea, There could be a sort of Pokemon challenge or even Dragon Ball Z as they are both famous franchises in the western world)

                    Leg 3: Tokyo, Japan - Shenzhen, China (A big city China leg that will have teams scrambling with a zero hour Pit stop where teams race inland)

                    Leg 4: Shenzhen, China - Xian, China (A leg that will deal with rural China plus have a return to the famous task on Mount Hua with the locks)

                    Leg 5: Xian, China - Muscat, Oman (A really cool country that deserves another leg. Pull the roadblock from TAR9 and some other tasks for a great leg)

                    Leg 6: Muscat, Oman - Windhoek, Namibia (I saw a lot of Namibia on The Grand Tour and I'd like to see more of this amazing city)

                    Leg 7: Windhoek, Namibia - Walvis Bay, Namibia (A coastal leg in Namibia could be incredible)

                    Leg 8: Walvis Bay, Namibia - Johannesburg, South Africa (A underused city in a undervisited country!)

                    Leg 9: Johannesburg, South Africa - Buenos Aries, Argentina - Montevideo, Uruguay (First a few tasks like a detour or a couple of ARIs then take a ferry to Uruguay)

                    Leg 10: Montevideo, Uruguay (Continue with some more tasks in Uruguay for a country that hasn't really been touched)

                    Leg 11: Montevideo, Uruguay - Puerto Montt, Chile (A region of Chile that I don't think has been used that much at all)

                    Leg 12: Puerto Montt, Chile to Wellington, New Zealand (A final leg in the capital of New Zealand, with a task at the Weta Workshop, The famous Basin Reserve with a possible finish line on Mount Victoria or at Westpac Stadium)

                    Just fyi DC isn't in Maryland.

                    And saying that about Alabama is borderline offensive.

                    Also you could honestly do the 'unique tasks' from legs 4 through 12 all within about 100 miles of DC.  :angel

                    Also here's a fun theme season that will possibly upset most of the active users of this thread  :funny:

                    TAR 30: Brought To You By Wonderful Taiwan and Fiji (and some other countries that could use the help)

                    START: Mt. Orizaba, Catalina Is., CA
                    LEG 1: to Havana, Cuba (liiiiike....there are legitimately and legally far less auspicious reasons people have managed to get to Cuba so here we are)
                    LEG 2: to Kingston and the Blue Mountains, Jamaica
                    LEG 3: to Stockholm, Sweden*
                    LEG 4: to the Aland Is., Finland
                    LEG 5: to Lefkara, Cyprus
                    LEG 6: to Antananarivo, Madagascar
                    LEG 7: to Tsingy National Park, Madagascar
                    LEG 8: to Taichung and Nantou County, Taiwan*
                    LEG 9: to Xiamen, China (sue me, it's a new city in China)
                    LEG 10: to the Yasawa Islands, Fiji
                    LEG 11: to San Francisco, CA
                    FINISH: Treasure Island, San Francisco

                    * indicates a leg followed by no rest period; the first still results in an elimination (like TARLA) while second is a standard NEL with penalty.

                    Also there's assuredly a Switchback to the container task of TAR 25  :bunny (sadly no Australia, UK, Indonesia, NZ, or Philippines I hope you can forgive me :))

                    Also here's a fun theme season that will possibly upset most of the active users of this thread  :funny:

                    TAR 30: Brought To You By Wonderful Taiwan and Fiji (and some other countries that could use the help)

                    START: Mt. Orizaba, Catalina Is., CA
                    LEG 1: to Havana, Cuba (liiiiike....there are legitimately and legally far less auspicious reasons people have managed to get to Cuba so here we are)
                    LEG 2: to Kingston and the Blue Mountains, Jamaica
                    LEG 3: to Stockholm, Sweden*
                    LEG 4: to the Aland Is., Finland
                    LEG 5: to Lefkara, Cyprus
                    LEG 6: to Antananarivo, Madagascar
                    LEG 7: to Tsingy National Park, Madagascar
                    LEG 8: to Taichung and Nantou County, Taiwan*
                    LEG 9: to Xiamen, China (sue me, it's a new city in China)
                    LEG 10: to the Yasawa Islands, Fiji
                    LEG 11: to San Francisco, CA
                    FINISH: Treasure Island, San Francisco

                    * indicates a leg followed by no rest period; the first still results in an elimination (like TARLA) while second is a standard NEL with penalty.

                    Also there's assuredly a Switchback to the container task of TAR 25  :bunny (sadly no Australia, UK, Indonesia, NZ, or Philippines I hope you can forgive me :))

                    It's not that bad. ??? Unless you mean there's no Philippines here, but I'm fine with that.

                    For TAR30, I want a route that will surprise me. :) If they can't do that, we're overdue for an East-to-West route.

                    Brilliant route but I'm not sure about the San Francisco final city. Feels kind of overused to me.

                    And saying that about Alabama is borderline offensive.

                    With the existence of the F4F in the past, I'd actually want to see an F5 penultimate leg. The final leg will then have 4 teams, but a checkpoint will take one team out before they can finish the race.

                    San Francisco needs to be a Starting Line for a Westward route/Asia/Oceania first Leg and/or visited by an international TAR for a full Leg  :hoot:

                    My route for TAR30:
                    LEG1:LA,USA-Barcelona,Spain
                    LEG2:Barcelona,Spain-Nigeria
                    LEG3:Nigeria
                    LEG4:Nigeria-Hamburg,Germany
                    LEG5:Hamburg,Germany-Helsinki,Finland
                    LEG6:Helsinki,Finland-Toshkent,Uzbekistan
                    LEG7:Toshkent,Uzbekistan-Xi'an,China
                    LEG8:Xi'an,China-Chengdu,China
                    LEG9:Chengdu,China-Kathmandu,Nepal
                    LEG10:Nepal
                    LEG11:Nepal-Auckland,New Zealand
                    LEG12:New Zealand-Seattle,USA

                    3 new countries...

                    Why Barcelona again? Spain has a lot more to offer, not just Barcelona or the islands...

                    San Francisco hasn't had a summer finale if the race goes Westward route from Los Angeles start. It would be great for San Fran on TAR 30 finale city.

                    With justmjlayson's wishlist route suggestion for season 30 on page 150 (as the show has recently renewed for that season), here's the (newly) revised route with slight changes.

                    Similar leg wishlist design in my old post: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1189014.html#msg1189014

                    START: Pasadena, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png) (2 flights, arriving 30 minutes apart in the morning)
                    Leg 2: Hobart, Tasmania, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png) (fishing task, mountain bike riding task, snow task if filmed in like July, SELF-DRIVING)*
                    Leg 3: Nagoya, Japan (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9e/Flag_of_Japan.svg/22px-Flag_of_Japan.svg.png) (search ninjas in Nagoya Castle, find a clue at either Tsuruma Park or Kosho-ji and pit stop at Port of Nagoya)
                    Leg 4: Siem Reap, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png) (eat tarantulas at Psah Chas Night Market, search a pendant onto a monks in Angkor Wat, Pit Stop at Pre Rup)
                    Leg 5: Phnom Penh, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png) (visit Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum to observe silence for Khmer Rouge victims, becoming tuk tuk driver task)
                    Leg 6: Paarl and Stellenbosch, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png) (winery tasks)
                    Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png) (bungee jump roadblock; searching gems task)
                    Leg 8: Rovaniemi, Lapland, Finland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Flag_of_Finland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Finland.svg.png) (visit Santa Claus' house, dog sledding task in summer, take a sauna, SELF-DRIVING)**
                    Leg 9: Gothenburg, Sweden (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4c/Flag_of_Sweden.svg/22px-Flag_of_Sweden.svg.png)
                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.svg.png)
                    Leg 11: Dublin, Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.svg.png) (Irish beer, camogie/hurling)
                    Leg 12: San Francisco, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)

                    *At the immediate start of Leg 2, teams must book a overnight ferry from Melbourne to Devonport, Tasmania. Upon arrival,
                     they would choose a marked car to drive to Cradle Mountain for a Detour, then Roadblock and Active Route Marker task in Hobart just like TAR 29 Leg 8.

                    **Prior to arrive in Rovaniemi, teams must take a flight to Helsinki and catch a overnight train ride to Rovaniemi.

                    Australia (18) + Japan (26) + Cambodia (15) + South Africa (7) + Finland (10) + Sweden (25) + Spain (24) + Ireland (12) = Total combination would be 137.

                    Route Map

                    (http://i.imgur.com/ZZQ4TQ2.png)

                    Leg 1: NEL/TBC/KOR
                    Leg 2: F11 elimination
                    Leg 3: F10 elimination
                    Leg 4: F9 elimination
                    Leg 5: F8 elimination
                    Leg 6: F7 NEL
                    Leg 7: F7 elimination
                    Leg 8: F6 elimination
                    Leg 9: F5 NEL
                    Leg 10: F5 elimination
                    Leg 11: F4 elimination
                    Leg 12: F3

                    Bourkie would be proud if TAR 30 will get its Tasmania visit ever in the franchise, thus three recent TAR seasons did traverse the eastward route, so let's get the westward route that is a way overdue.

                    TAR 30: Brought To You By Wonderful Taiwan and Fiji (and some other countries that could use the help)

                    START: Mt. Orizaba, Catalina Is., CA
                    LEG 1: to Havana, Cuba (liiiiike....there are legitimately and legally far less auspicious reasons people have managed to get to Cuba so here we are)
                    LEG 2: to Kingston and the Blue Mountains, Jamaica
                    LEG 3: to Stockholm, Sweden*
                    LEG 4: to the Aland Is., Finland
                    LEG 5: to Lefkara, Cyprus
                    LEG 6: to Antananarivo, Madagascar
                    LEG 7: to Tsingy National Park, Madagascar
                    LEG 8: to Taichung and Nantou County, Taiwan*
                    LEG 9: to Xiamen, China (sue me, it's a new city in China)
                    LEG 10: to the Yasawa Islands, Fiji
                    LEG 11: to San Francisco, CA
                    FINISH: Treasure Island, San Francisco

                    * indicates a leg followed by no rest period; the first still results in an elimination (like TARLA) while second is a standard NEL with penalty.

                    Also there's assuredly a Switchback to the container task of TAR 25  :bunny (sadly no Australia, UK, Indonesia, NZ, or Philippines I hope you can forgive me :))

                    It's not that bad. ??? Unless you mean there's no Philippines here, but I'm fine with that.

                    It's an all island route that avoids the countries that everyone wants to see (so Australia, the Philippines, etc) :funny:

                    (also it's why San Francisco gets used as a finish again - it's either that, Miami Beach, Manhattan or Catalina again)

                    With justmjlayson's wishlist route suggestion for season 30 on page 150 (as the show has recently renewed for that season), here's the (newly) revised route with slight changes.

                    Similar leg wishlist design in my old post: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1189014.html#msg1189014

                    START: Pasadena, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png) (2 flights, arriving 30 minutes apart in the morning)
                    Leg 2: Hobart, Tasmania, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png) (fishing task, mountain bike riding task, snow task if filmed in like July, SELF-DRIVING)*
                    Leg 3: Nagoya, Japan (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9e/Flag_of_Japan.svg/22px-Flag_of_Japan.svg.png) (search ninjas in Nagoya Castle, find a clue at either Tsuruma Park or Kosho-ji and pit stop at Port of Nagoya)
                    Leg 4: Siem Reap, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png) (eat tarantulas at Psah Chas Night Market, search a pendant onto a monks in Angkor Wat, Pit Stop at Pre Rup)
                    Leg 5: Phnom Penh, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png) (visit Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum to observe silence for Khmer Rouge victims, becoming tuk tuk driver task)
                    Leg 6: Paarl and Stellenbosch, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png) (winery tasks)
                    Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png) (bungee jump roadblock; searching gems task)
                    Leg 8: Rovaniemi, Lapland, Finland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Flag_of_Finland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Finland.svg.png) (visit Santa Claus' house, dog sledding task in summer, take a sauna, SELF-DRIVING)**
                    Leg 9: Gothenburg, Sweden (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4c/Flag_of_Sweden.svg/22px-Flag_of_Sweden.svg.png)
                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.svg.png)
                    Leg 11: Dublin, Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.svg.png) (Irish beer, camogie/hurling)
                    Leg 12: San Francisco, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)

                    *At the immediate start of Leg 2, teams must book a overnight ferry from Melbourne to Devonport, Tasmania. Upon arrival,
                     they would choose a marked car to drive to Cradle Mountain for a Detour, then Roadblock and Active Route Marker task in Hobart just like TAR 29 Leg 8.

                    **Prior to arrive in Rovaniemi, teams must take a flight to Helsinki and catch a overnight train ride to Rovaniemi.

                    Australia (18) + Japan (26) + Cambodia (15) + South Africa (7) + Finland (10) + Sweden (25) + Spain (24) + Ireland (12) = Total combination would be 137.

                    Leg 1: NEL/TBC/KOR
                    Leg 2: F11 elimination
                    Leg 3: F10 elimination
                    Leg 4: F9 elimination
                    Leg 5: F8 elimination
                    Leg 6: F7 NEL
                    Leg 7: F7 elimination
                    Leg 8: F6 elimination
                    Leg 9: F5 NEL
                    Leg 10: F5 elimination
                    Leg 11: F4 elimination
                    Leg 12: F3

                    Bourkie would be proud if TAR 30 will get its Tasmania visit ever in the franchise, thus three recent TAR seasons did traverse the eastward route, so let's get the westward route that is a way overdue.

                    On a wider scale, 1st 3 legs easily remind me of TAR18, both in countries and pre-determined pit stop type. However, Australia is overdue, and Nagoya was never visited, so I wouldn't call this a bad route. :)

                    No Europe? Europe has so much to offer in my opinion!! And, in Vancouver, the best ski resort is Whistler which is quite a bit away!! TAR Canada Season 3 Finale was in Whistler.

                    Yeah, I realized that after I finished. I'm lost with Europe, I don't know where I should go! Sort of the same thing with the Penultimate leg. And instead of Korea i changed it to Nagoya, JApan

                    Penultimate ideas
                    1. Stay in Europe
                    2. Head to Caribbean
                    3. Head to Central America
                    4. Head to South America
                    5. Head to Canada
                    6. Head to USA and just have 11 legs

                    3 European legs ideas
                    1. East, North, West
                    2. East, West, North
                    3. West, East, North
                    4. North, East, West
                    5. North, North, North
                    6. North, North, West
                    7. West, West, West
                    8. West, West, North
                    9. East, East, North
                    10, East, East, West

                    What would you all do!!!??? In desperate need of help

                    Just one African leg in the entire race seems like too little, so I would say South Africa times two, although I love Cambodia. :P

                    Double South Africa, the Nordic countries of Norway, Iceland and Denmark's Faroe Islands and two very different islands, tropical Fiji and exotic Bahamas. Nailed it! I just think for Japan, I would prefer Sapporo for a colder region or for more culture Kyoto but Nagoya is fine with me. Aside from Brussels, Antwerp or Brugge is also a good choice.

                    Oh, and I should add in,

                    During the Finale leg, teams are treated to VIP on a cruise ship from Nassau to Port Canaveral. Once in Port Canaveral, teams get a bus to the Disney Parks where the entire leg is spent! And, I have I think 5 or 6 self drive legs !!!

                    It is a wishlist anyway and it is a different part of Norway. Knowing TAR, they have a trend of using countries back to back. All were in different locations despite being in the same country.

                    > S.21, S.22 & S.23 had Indonesia
                    > S.24 & S.25 had Italy and United Kingdom
                    > S.26 & S.27 had The Netherlands
                    > S.27 & S.28 had China
                    > S.26, S.27 & S.28 had France

                    Having been to Bergen it's actually quite similar to Ålesund just a bit bigger, if we were to see Norway again I'd like to see Oslo, Tromso or the Lofoten Islands.

                    I love those places! We did not have a proper Oslo leg anyway. Pit Stop at the beautiful Oslo Opera House.

                    Why Norway? We had it last season

                    Change Norway to Finland and Sweden respectively for two separate legs. Sweden did not have a proper visit since season 17, and Finland never had a full leg and a Pit Stop since season 10.

                    Here's my FINAL route:

                    Start:Some Place near LA
                    Leg-1 Suva, Fiji
                    Leg-2 Melbourne Australia
                    Leg-3 Hobart, Australia
                    Leg-4 Nagoya, Japan
                    Leg-5 Siem Reap, Cambodia
                    Leg-6 Cape Town, South Africa
                    Leg-7 Port Eliabeth, South Africa
                    Leg-8 Bergen, Norway & Torshavn, Faroe Islands, Denmark
                    Leg-9 Reykjavik, Iceland
                    Leg-10 Brussels, Belgium
                    Leg-11 Nassau, Bahamas
                    Leg-12 Orlando, United States

                    The huge problem is USA and Fiji that the flights between LA and Nadi are only a single night flight. Australia would be a better for a first leg in Melbourne with two pre-determined flights (a tradition has used at the start of every race). See my post (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1195661.html#msg1195661) at page 153 with map. Another huge reason Fiji is already booked for two seasons of Survivor that rule out a crossover appearance of two reality show seasons.

                    Leg-2 Melbourne Australia
                    Leg-3 Hobart, Australia
                    Leg-4 Nagoya, Japan
                    Leg-5 Siem Reap, Cambodia
                    Leg-6 Cape Town, South Africa
                    Leg-7 Port Eliabeth, South Africa
                    Leg-8 Bergen, Norway & Torshavn, Faroe Islands, Denmark
                    Leg-9 Reykjavik, Iceland
                    Leg-10 Brussels, Belgium
                    Leg-11 Nassau, Bahamas
                    Leg-12 Orlando, United States

                    The huge problem is USA and Fiji that the flights between LA and Nadi are only a single night flight. Australia would be a better for a first leg in Melbourne with two pre-determined flights (a tradition has used at the start of every race). See my post (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1195661.html#msg1195661) at page 153 with map. Another huge reason Fiji is already booked for two seasons of Survivor that rule out a crossover appearance of two reality show seasons.

                    There's only 1 place being visited in Bergen!!! I chose Bergen because there is a direct flight to Torshavn! And I will just change Fiji to Leg-3 and australia Leg-1 & 2

                    I could have one set of teams fly to nadi then suva and the other set fly to Sydney or Auckland then Suva.

                    I can have 1 flight to Nadi, then 2 buses to Suva

                    A US to Fiji first leg is actually pretty viable provided you aren't starting in LA; as long as you can easily connect to LAX to SFO, you can separate teams on either FJ 871 or FJ 811 which is separated by like...40-50 minutes depending on the time of year :)

                    Somewhat related to the above, I feel like, especially with the westward starts from LA which tend to leave in the middle of the night, there could easily be a Detour or RB in the starting city; that would certainly be a more organic way of determining who gets on the first flight(s).

                    TAR should do another strangers' edition season. :hoot: Not next season though, since we need to see a regular season after 2 seasons of non-regular ones.

                    I love the idea of another 22-strangers paired but give the twists a break. I'd love to see a regular cast again.

                    For some reason, I've been thinking about Mega Man games this week (one of my favourite classic video game series) and I remembered VI has 8 stages each representing and taking place in a different country. Once one is substituted for a country TAR obviously would never visit, it's actually not a bad route. For a China version, since they have less legs.

                    China (Wind Man) - Japan (Yamato Man) - Canada (Blizzard Man) - USA (Tomahawk Man) - Brazil (Plant Man) - Morocco (Flame Man, which is actually Saudi Arabia) - England (Knight Man) - Greece (Centaur Man)

                    That's what I have in mind for so long. I wish they could go to some islands like Maldives, Faeroe Islands, Azores Islands, Svalbard, Santorini, Corsica and Sardinia.

                    STARTING LINE: Cupid's Span - San Francisco, California, USA

                    Leg 1 - San Francisco --> Qingdao, China

                    Leg 2 - Qingdao --> Port Vila, Vanuatu

                    Leg 3 - Other destination in Vanuatu

                    Leg 4 - Vanuatu --> Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea

                    Leg 5 - Various locations in western Papua New Guinea

                    Leg 6 - Papua New Guinea --> Jayapura, Indonesia (Crossing the border
                    by foot and then going to Jayapura by motorised transport)

                    Leg 7 - Jayapura --> Kathmandu, Nepal

                    Leg 8 - Kathmandu --> Pokhara

                    Leg 9 - Pokhara --> Helsinki --> Vantaa, Finland (Hobby-horsing-task)

                    Leg 10 - Vantaa --> Oulu (Air guitar task)

                    Leg 11 - Oulu --> Copenhagen --> Tórshavn, Faroe Islands (Denmark)

                    Leg 12 - Tórshavn --> Minneapolis & St. Paul, Minnesota, USA

                    FINISH LINE: Spoonbridge and Cherry in the Walker Art Center’s Minneapolis Sculpture Garden

                    Both the start and finish line monuments are made by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen. This makes for a good ending imo, as the race ends in a same type location as where it starts.

                    RFF
                    Hey guys, please consider this route. It's a unique idea that hasn't been done in a while but it will bring some great challenges to the race.

                    (United States - Iceland)
                    (Iceland - Ireland)
                    (Ireland - Spain)
                    (Spain - Madagascar)
                    (Madagascar)
                    (Madagascar - Brazil)
                    (Brazil - Fiji)
                    (Fiji - China)
                    (China)
                    (China - Myanmar)
                    (Myanmar)
                    (Myanmar - United States)

                    Leg 1 Los Angeles, United States - Reykjavik, Iceland

                    This would be one of the most challenging legs of the race, forcing teams to do challenges in the icy cold similar to switzerland legs.

                    Leg 2 Reykjavik, Iceland - Cork, Ireland

                    In Cork teams would participate in challenges relating to traditional Irish culture, as Cork is known as one of the cultural capitols of Europe.

                    Leg 3 Cork, Ireland - Barcelona, Spain U-Turn x2

                    This leg would feature a daunting and lengthy day long drive from Cork to Barcelona, similar to the Belem to Morocco drive in season 3. Barcelona and its coast would also be a good place to have a nighttime leg, allowing teams behind to catch up while the others waited for nighttime. It would also contain the first U-Turn.

                    Leg 4 Barcelona, Spain - Antananarivo, Madagascar
                    Non Elimination Continuous

                    This leg would have teams travelling to the capital of Madagascar and performing challenges relating to the culture of Madagascar. It would also be a non elimination leg and a nonstop leg, as the next one would begin subsequently.

                    Leg 5 Andasibe-Mantadia National Park, Madagascar

                    This leg would give teams the great opportunity to explore the wildlife of the eighth continent, as they travel east to a national park of Madagascar. 

                    Leg 6 Antananarivo, Madagascar - Foz Do Iguacu, Brazil

                    This leg is the first time the race has turned back and changed its direction since season 8. Iguacu falls in Brazil would be this leg's location, as the wildlife and culture would be the topic of challenges.

                    Leg 7 Foz Do Iguacu, Brazil - Suva, Fiji

                    This would be the "beach leg" of the season, and also contain challenges portaining to local culture of Fiji, similar to French Polynesia in season 22.

                    Leg 8 Suva, Fiji - Lhasa, China
                    Non Elimination Continuous

                    Although China has been a frequent location for the race, western china has been mostly excluded. This leg would give teams an opportunity to visit the amazing scenery of Tibet, and would also be a non elimination nonstop leg.

                    Leg 9 Kashgar, China
                    U-Turn x2

                    Western China is culturally and ethnically very different from the large cities in the East. Kashgar is a mostly Muslim area, which a different culture than the rest of China. This leg would be a great chaotic Asian leg, as Kashgar is full of chaotic markets. It would also contain the second U-Turn

                    Leg 10 Kashgar, China - Yangon, Myanmar
                    Non Elimination

                    Myanmar is a first for the race, and has a very unique culture. Yangon would also give teams the opporunity for an aquatic challenge in Yangon's chaotic streets and seas. It would also be a non elimination leg.

                    Leg 11 Old Bagan, Myanmar

                    This leg would have teams travel to the ancient city of Bagan, and perform several challenges in the ruins, very similar to leg 3 of season 19 where teams visited the Borobudur.

                    Leg 12 Old Bagan, Myanmar - United States

                    To drive from Cork to Barcelona would take about 26 hours not including rests and getting lost. You would also have to cross the Irish Sea as well as the English channel. That is logistically impossible. The drive from Sintra to Tangier is 8 hours including a ferry.

                    The main challenge of the leg would be the massive drive. It's acknowledged that teams would get vastly separated and probably have to take rests, hence why there would be a "hold" area in Barcelona, possibly at a club or something so that teams could wait until nightfall when they would catch up. There would be no roadblock for that leg, because it has one detour and U-Turn.

                    And I concur that, while the route is nice, albeit a little clusterf***y, the drive from Cork to Barcelona is a logistical impossibility.

                    Ok, it doesn't have to be a drive from Cork to Narcelona. The main point of the route is that every meridian it crosses is crossed twice like season 8, and it travels past north America twice like season 13.

                    I made one lay out for s30 (okay there's really no specificity for s30)
                    Leg 1 (a double length leg) : Vladivostok leg : roadblocks include any water related tasks in freezing winter winds, ice fishing, any generic height related task (because why not), and since we are in the russian pacific military stronghold, any military related roadblocks.
                    Leg 2 & 3 : Japan, osaka & kyoto. The osaka leg can be filled with Japanese pop culture and fun tasks like previous japanese legs. The kyoto leg  can delve into Japanese culture and mythology.
                    Leg 4 & 5 : New Zealand ! I know we'd rather have Australia (it's been nearly 11 seasons.) But New Zealand > Australia (no offense). 1 leg can be in rotorua where there are a lot of adventure related tasks and the other can be in Wellington, the highly underrated capital of NZ.
                    Leg 6 : India ! 1 leg can be in Kerala (it's a region in southern India with gorgeous views) which can have some tasks related with elephants (s20 waddup) and some tasks related to coconuts. there can be a detour involving two traditional malayali arts - kathakali and kalari-payattu. Kathakali is a very tough dance to master and Kalari-payattu is a very fast paced and highly athletic martial art. a u-turn on this leg will stump racers bad.
                    Leg 7: Croatia. I'd say Zagreb (see, nz) but dubrovnik is definitely the city to be ! y'know to improve their TRPs they could have a collab with GoT in Dubrovnik. Plus there is always this one city famous for its wines. Dubrovnik could be it.
                    Leg 8 : Andorra - one of the smallest countries in the world. This leg could be like the s26e6 leg. Andorra is a beautiful amalgamation of spanish and french cultures. so this would be beautiful.
                    Leg 9 : Ireland. I don't really remember when TAR visited Ireland before but Ireland seems really fun. There should be a fast forward or a task that involves barrel rolling. Also Irish poetry. This might be a good leg for a u-turn.
                    Leg 10 : Cote'd'Ivoire. A really underrated african nation. they could have some rally related tasks (abidjan) and definitely a detour involving chocolates.
                    Leg 11 : Kinda unsure about this leg. It could be a leg in some south american country or a second leg in cote'd'ivoire. If we do visit a south american country it would mean that we'd visit 6 continents !
                    Leg 12 : Idk. some american city.  Not a personal fan of the final legs.
                    So there you have it !! a very crude lay out of what i'd want from TAR 30. And personally the season should be an edition of unfinished business. and the tasks shouldnt be bland (you listening s29?)

                    Make Yield return but with longer waiting time (so its power is equal as with U-Turn), like around one hour or more.

                    Leg 9 : Ireland. I don't really remember when TAR visited Ireland before but Ireland seems really fun. There should be a fast forward or a task that involves barrel rolling. Also Irish poetry. This might be a good leg for a u-turn.
                    Leg 10 : Cote'd'Ivoire. A really underrated african nation. they could have some rally related tasks (abidjan) and definitely a detour involving chocolates.
                    Leg 11 : Kinda unsure about this leg. It could be a leg in some south american country or a second leg in cote'd'ivoire. If we do visit a south american country it would mean that we'd visit 6 continents !
                    Leg 12 : Idk. some american city.  Not a personal fan of the final legs.
                    So there you have it !! a very crude lay out of what i'd want from TAR 30. And personally the season should be an edition of unfinished business. and the tasks shouldnt be bland (you listening s29?)

                    Love your route. I made a map of this using my mapping software, and while this is the longest race EVER, it is a great one. So here it is. (Some of the airports may not be exact)

                    That has why it had never a 6-continent race in westward route in the original American race. This could say for TAR 30 in 6 continents within 12 legs. Don't want to get another 5-continent race.

                    TAR 30
                    Start:SoCal or Arizona or Nevada
                      Leg-1 Suva or Mamanuca Islands, Fiji
                      Leg-2 Melbourne, Australia
                      Leg-3 Hobart, Australia

                    He meant create an fictional route for him, not to wish that route for TAR.

                    It would be a different thing if TAR had a starting line taking place in the winter, with some snow, but not too much snow to slow down the filming...

                    6 continents
                    9 countries
                    39,000 miles

                    (http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=LAX-MEL-TPE-CNX-BKK-CPT-PRG-RVN-RIX-MDE-BOG-DEN&MS=wls&MC=15N10E&MR=1800&MX=720x360&PM=b:cstar7)

                    Editor's note: this post has expanded with a lot of details. New Orleans was totally removed from the wishlist and is replaced with Denver as an alternate city after Hurricane Harvey's aftermath hit Southeastern Texas and portions of Louisiana.

                    I'm so confused about those last TAR's. I used to care a lot more about routes before  :funny:

                    Don't know what's been recently visited anymore

                    What i wish for TAR30: all continents!

                    Leg 1 - Los Angeles, USA to Suva, Fiji
                    Leg 2 - Suva, Fiji to Nadi, Fiji
                    Leg 3 - Nadi, Fiji to Perth, Australia
                    Leg 4 - Perth, Australia to Delhi, India
                    Leg 5 - Delhi, India to Zagreb, Croatia
                    Leg 6 - Zagreb, Croatia to Sisak, Croatia
                    Leg 7 - Sisak, Croatia to Johannesburg, South Africa
                    Leg 8 - Johannesburg to Cape Town, South Africa
                    Leg 9 - Cape Town to Montevideo, Uruguay
                    Leg 10 - Montevideo to Punta del Este, Uruguay
                    Leg 11 - Punta del Este to Quito, Equador
                    Leg 12 - Quito to Las Vegas, Nevada

                    OR

                    Leg 1 - Los Angeles to Kingston, Jamaica
                    Leg 2 - Kingston to Morant Bay, Jamaica
                    Leg 3 - Morant Bay, Jamaica to Dublin, Ireland
                    Leg 4 - Dublin, Ireland to Helsinki, Finland
                    Leg 5 - Helsinki to Cairo, Egypt
                    Leg 6 - Cairo to Port Said, Egypt
                    Leg 7 - Port Said to Dhaka, Bangladesh
                    Leg 8 - Dhaka to Ha Noi, Vietnam
                    Leg 9 - Ha Noi to Ha Long Bay, Vietnam
                    Leg 10 - Ha Long Bay to Brisbane, Australia
                    Leg 11 - Brisbane, Australia to Fraser Island, Australia
                    Leg 12 - Fraser Island to Las Vegas, Nevada

                    Seven countries. Seems fine.

                    I would replace Vietnam with Cambodia and have two legs in Cambodia, one in Siem Reap where they visit Angkor Wat and one in Phnom Penh.

                    With justmjlayson's wishlist route suggestion for season 30 on page 150 (as the show has recently renewed for that season), here's the (newly) revised route with slight changes.

                    Similar leg wishlist design in my old post: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1189014.html#msg1189014

                    START: Pasadena, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)
                    Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png) (2 flights, arriving 30 minutes apart in the morning)
                    Leg 2: Hobart, Tasmania, Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg.png) (fishing task, mountain bike riding task, snow task if filmed in like July, SELF-DRIVING)*
                    Leg 3: Nagoya, Japan (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9e/Flag_of_Japan.svg/22px-Flag_of_Japan.svg.png) (search ninjas in Nagoya Castle, find a clue at either Tsuruma Park or Kosho-ji and pit stop at Port of Nagoya)
                    Leg 4: Siem Reap, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png) (eat tarantulas at Psah Chas Night Market, search a pendant onto a monks in Angkor Wat, Pit Stop at Pre Rup)
                    Leg 5: Phnom Penh, Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.svg.png) (visit Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum to observe silence for Khmer Rouge victims, becoming tuk tuk driver task)
                    Leg 6: Paarl and Stellenbosch, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png) (winery tasks)
                    Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.svg.png) (bungee jump roadblock; searching gems task)
                    Leg 8: Rovaniemi, Lapland, Finland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Flag_of_Finland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Finland.svg.png) (visit Santa Claus' house, dog sledding task in summer, take a sauna, SELF-DRIVING)**
                    Leg 9: Gothenburg, Sweden (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4c/Flag_of_Sweden.svg/22px-Flag_of_Sweden.svg.png)
                    Leg 10: Madrid, Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.svg.png)
                    Leg 11: Dublin, Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.svg.png) (Irish beer, camogie/hurling)
                    Leg 12: San Francisco, California, USA (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)

                    *At the immediate start of Leg 2, teams must book a overnight ferry from Melbourne to Devonport, Tasmania. Upon arrival,
                     they would choose a marked car to drive to Cradle Mountain for a Detour, then Roadblock and Active Route Marker task in Hobart just like TAR 29 Leg 8.

                    **Prior to arrive in Rovaniemi, teams must take a flight to Helsinki and catch a overnight train ride to Rovaniemi.

                    Australia (18) + Japan (26) + Cambodia (15) + South Africa (7) + Finland (10) + Sweden (25) + Spain (24) + Ireland (12) = Total combination would be 137.

                    Leg 1: NEL/TBC/KOR
                    Leg 2: F11 elimination
                    Leg 3: F10 elimination
                    Leg 4: F9 elimination
                    Leg 5: F8 elimination
                    Leg 6: F7 NEL
                    Leg 7: F7 elimination
                    Leg 8: F6 elimination
                    Leg 9: F5 NEL
                    Leg 10: F5 elimination
                    Leg 11: F4 elimination
                    Leg 12: F3

                    Bourkie would be proud if TAR 30 will get its Tasmania visit ever in the franchise, thus three recent TAR seasons did traverse the eastward route, so let's get the westward route that is a way overdue.

                    On a wider scale, 1st 3 legs easily remind me of TAR18, both in countries and pre-determined pit stop type. However, Australia is overdue, and Nagoya was never visited, so I wouldn't call this a bad route. :)


                    I like this route a lot. I'm happy to see that someone put Cambodia on their route. However, I would replace Ireland with the Dominican Republic in the Carribean. That would be the last country visited before flying over to the U.S. My route is something similar to yours. Every race has three countries that are visited for two legs. For me, those countries are Cambodia, Mozambique, and the Dominican Republic. So, that's something to keep in mind.

                    I'm really glad I found this thread! Sometimes when I get bored, I'll play around on gcmap.com and make my own Amazing Race, so I'm glad I have somewhere to post these now.

                    Here's one I came up with:

                    Starting Line: Malibu, California (Malibu Pier) (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png)

                    For some reason my pms are being super slow and unresponsive so I'm just gonna reply to u here. I thought the scenery in Antigua and Barbuda would be wonderful for a pirate task. It is also one of Phils favorite places to visit, although that doesn't have much to do with the production of the leg. As far as Europe goes, maybe a major Eastern European city such as Prague/Budapest, followed by lesser known Eastern European cities/towns (in new countries)

                    Beach/water task
                    Survivor task

                    Leg 2: Mamanuca Islands, Fiji-Hobart, Tasmania (Pit Stop: Cascade Brewery)

                    Cricket/AFL detour at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (depends on when this films. The AFL Grand Final is played on 30 September, Grand Final Parade the day before and then the Sheffield Shield in mid to late October!)
                    Graffiti Roadblock at Hosier Lane
                    If they film in Melbourne, Grand Final Week (September 25-30), they need to be VERY careful, as many people will be out and about (including me), so spoilers! Also, it would be just crazy to film on the 29th, as 100,000 people are out and about for the GF parade! (episcally at the MCG)

                    Leg 4: Melbourne, Australia-Taipei, Taiwan (Pit Stop: Grand Hotel) Non-Elim

                    Task from the London Eye

                    Beer task!!!  :funny:

                    Leg 10: Dublin, Ireland-Cork, Ireland (Pit Stop: English Market)

                    We had a changing of the guard task in S25.

                    Also I think instead of Melbourne they should visit Queensland which hasn't been seen since S4. Brisbane, Gold Coast, Fraser Island, Whitsundays, Cairns, Palm Cove, Port Douglas & Barrier Reef are all possible locations.

                    Imagine they fly to Brisbane then get charter flights to Fraser Island.

                    The next leg they travel back to Brisbane where they visit the Koala Sanctuary, Detour on Southbank before having a surfing roadblock in nearby Gold Coast.

                    They could do 2 legs in the Cairns, Port Douglas, Kuranda, Barrier Reef vicinity.

                    Or they could do Brisbane/Gold Coast & The Whitsundays.

                    I think these would play host to amazing legs. Or we could have either the Whitsundays, Fraser Island or Cairns combined with Melbourne.

                    Yes the Gold Coast is a VERY good idea! Maybe Tasmania could be replaced with it??? I'm not sure about 2 legs in one state. I'm not too sure if the viewers would like it! Plus, we saw Cairns TAR4!

                    @nrh2110 I agree with your own assessment of your route; it's not the flashiest, but it definitely is realistic and interesting in of itself. And I quite like it, although that could just be my personal bias of enjoying realistic routes more than fantastic impossibilities. I could actually see WRP using this route, although Turkey is a bit of a question mark currently.

                    Visits every continent. Almost 30,000 miles. Two new countries, and new places in Italy and Brazil, two overvisited countries. I like this. Also I really want to make up for the boring visit to KK in TAR4 and the visit in TAR24 (nothing really bad about the visit, except the roadblocks, but it's TAR24 and it's universally hated here so...) because Kota Kinabalu/Sabah is quite possibly the most beautiful place I've ever been to. Let me know your thoughts again!

                    34,000 miles. Every continent except SA. New visits to Tajikistan and Barbados. To me, this is a bit less realistic, as there are only two countries that are overvisited, Russia and Spain, plus that Novosibirsk to Accra flight might become tricky. What do you guys think of this map?

                    ^
                    If your only logistical concern is Novosibirsk to Accra, you could switch out Novosibirsk for Moscow or St. Petersburg, unfortunately missing out in the race of shame switchback; but every switchback has been lackluster anyway.

                    And why Khujand over Dushanbe?

                    Okay well after doing a little research (I made the map last night but added detail this morning so I forgot about the flights), it wouldn't be too hard for an OVB-ACC flight.

                    And I chose Khujand over Dushanbe because each race seems to have one new location that is not the major city or a location that people think of when they think of that country. 29 had Alesund, 28 had Cartagena and Shenzhen, 27 had Rotterdam, and in each of the other countries, they had one city that is either not the major city (like Taipei, Oslo, and Valencia) or has been visited by Amazing Race before (like Novosibirsk), so I wanted to shake it up with Khujand. Plus, Khujand is the site of Cyropolis, which could maybe create some cool tasks.

                    My main problem with your map is Medellin to New Orleans. Usually, with newer TAR seasons, the final city is a city that can be flown to nonstop from the previous city. If you're looking for a Latin American country, I'd consider Panama City, Cancún, or Punta Cana.

                    Also, instead of Taipei, maybe consider Kaohsiung? I used both in my map, but if I only did one leg in Taiwan it would've been just Kaohsiung, because every season so far has gone to Taipei and Kaohsiung has so much to offer.

                    Other than, it's a cool map

                    Obviously, newer seasons since TAR 28, the final 3 teams may not release the departure times at the start of the final leg. In case, they got a flight to the final American city.

                    Medellin has two airports, Jose Maria Cordova International Airport is the busiest in the city and does have direct flights to some American cities (only AA operates the flight to Miami). The other airport, Enrique Olaya Herrera Airport, serves only limited domestic scheduled flights. Even more, they have to take a free transportation from Medellin to El Dorado International Airport in Bogota and could get a flight to New Orleans via Houston or Dallas.

                    S22: Belfast —> London —> Washington
                    S18: Rio —> São Paulo —> Miami

                    Okay I guess definitely 23 and 26 weren't direct flights, but where did they say they took those flights? 22 they flew out of London, so that was a direct flight, but, again with the exception of 23 and 26, all other of those have options for nonstop. There are direct flights from Seoul to Chicago, Guangzhou to LAX (because they flew out of Guangzhou not Shenzhen), HKG to NYC, Manila to LAX, London to Vegas, London to Washington, Paris to NYC, Osaka to Honolulu, Panama City to Atlanta, Rio to Miami, Seoul to LAX, and Shanghai to San Francisco. Alaska was tricky because it's incredibly difficult to get direct flights outside of the US to Alaska as the only options are Canada, Reykjavik, Frankfurt and Kamchatka. 26 is really the only real exception to this rule.

                    I personally would really love a final leg in New Orleans. Beautiful city, and as music composition major, I would love to see tasks related to the jazz culture there. That being said, I think we'll have to see penultimate legs in Cancun, Panama City, Frankfurt or London.

                    I don't mean to come off as s***ting on your map, but I wanted to help make it a bit more realistic.

                    Dakar needs two legs imo, and I'd exchange Leg two for either Ireland or Spain
                    Canberra isn't the best penultimate city, another Australian city would be better

                    Madagascar would probably not be visited because Phil said production had a lot of trouble there, and I don't know anything Bout Rwunion, but it's a pretty nice route otherwise. :)

                    It's a great route, although I'd prefer an additional Guatemalan Leg in Antigua/Atitlan
                    Additionally, the huge time gap between the two flights on Leg 1 is logistically less than idea
                    The Colombian and Asian Legs look incredible tho <3

                    Just realized I completely goofed those first two flights! Fixed that. Which of the double legs should be nixed for a double Guatemalan leg?

                    But two Legs in Colombia, especially in as exotic locales as the ones in the route, would still be refreshing considering it's barely been visited, too.

                    And something I've always wanted TAR to do if they ever go to Guatemala City is to have teams use the Mapa en Relieve to find their next destination.

                    Yeah, I've thought about it, and Taiwan, although an under-visited country, wouldn't stand out too much from other Asian visits.
                    So removing one of Taiwan's legs and keeping both of Colombia's would probably be best. :P

                    So what I'm thinking is add the second Guatemala leg, then get rid of the Taipei leg. Then, in order to avoid having all the double legs within the first half of the race, move Comoros to between Spain and Poland/Czech Republic. Maybe get rid of the second leg in Czech Republic and give it to Oman?

                    Or just condense the Czechia legs to one and keep the rest of the route from the Comoros-on the same.

                    I came up with a wish-list, seems a little farfetched but I put in a lot of thought into it:
                    Leg 1 : Juneau, USA to Vladivostok, Russia: [CONTINUING RACING]
                    2 RBs, one related to height and one involving some form of a water sport (as it is very cold over there it would be tough for the contestants to endure the frigid temperatures.) Starting line task can be something similar to the s23 finale. There can be one 'lost in translation task' which involves Cyrillic and Russian.

                    Leg 2 : Vladivostok, Russia: [ELIM 11]
                    One task related to ice fishing, and the preparation of ukha. One task in defrosting and shoveling away snow (Combine the latter and the former for a detour?). One roadblock in Russian military (golden horn harbour!) and if there is a paucity then some extreme Russian sport like tank biathlon (just for fun.)

                    Leg 3 : Vladivostok, Russia to Kyoto prefecture + Osaka, Japan: [ELIM 10]
                    One task related to ramen (showing the next location inside the ramen box?). One task related to japanese crafts and arts, another task involving the Japanese art of incense sticks. Possibly a RB at Namba Grand Kagetsu !! 'needle in the haystack' type of task at sanjusangendo??

                    Leg 4 : Osaka, Japan to Wellington, New Zealand: [ELIM 9]
                    Navigation based tasks on hills in wellington; task related to the hobbit because of Weta caves, and another task involving sign language (NZSL For the win!!). Then a task based on the haka, perhaps?

                    Leg 5 : Rotorua, New Zealand: [ELIM 8] 
                    A generic adventure based leg mostly revolving on physically demanding tasks. a shweeb race, bungee jumping, skydiving, scree runs, whitewater rafting, ziplines and skyline luges! New Zealand is a adventure junkie haven and I think that any one of these tasks can also be a FF.

                    Leg 6 : Rotorua, New Zealand to Cochin, India: [NON ELIM + UTURNx2]
                    A task involving the absurd popularity of coconut fibres in Kerala, another agrarian task (these 2 could be a detour). The participants can run the leg in traditional Malayali attire, and there can also be a detour on some martial art or a dance (both of which are known to be fast paced).

                    Leg 7 : Mumbai, India: [ELIM 7 + UTURN]
                    A fast paced city type leg, one task involving distributing lunchboxes (dabbawalas in Mumbai look em' up). A dance related task, and a culinary task. Then perhaps a crude oil task (mumbai high) or some beach related tasks.

                    Leg 8 : Mumbai, India to Dubrovnik, Croatia: [ELIM 6]
                    Tasks related to wine, kayaking, basically generic tourist activities in dubrovnik. Another task possibly related to GoT ? xD just kidding. some tasks involving searching the walls of dubrovnik, and perhaps making medicines in the Franciscan Church and monastery.

                    Leg 9 : Dubrovnik, Croatia to Dublin, Ireland: [ELIM 5]
                    Dance related tasks, a FF involving teams balancing upon balancing upon rolling barrels. Irish culture related tasks, maybe and of course one technological task.

                    Leg 10 : Dublin, Ireland to abidjan, cote'd'ivoire: [NON ELIM]
                    Task related to chocolate, task related to the rally cote'd'ivoire, and some rural challenges. I don't know, I had gotten dry by this point.

                    Leg 11 : Abidjan, Cote'd'Ivoire to Montevideo, Uruguay: [ELIM 4 + UTURNx2]
                    I don't know, really I was tired and I couldn't think of anything :P I thought of some gaucho related tasks and some surfing tasks and challenges; also some task related to music or the national instrument.

                    Leg 12 : Montevideo, Uruguay to Austin, Texas.

                    THERE YOU HAVE IT! the race expands over 6 continents so a majority of the Earth is covered. It's flawed, what do y'all think?

                    I'd love the Intersection to return, particularly during the F4 or Penultimate Leg with the Detour being the final challenge of Leg 11. Just imagine the tense racing when teams are battling it all out for a spot in the Finals.

                    Yeah, I've thought about it, and Taiwan, although an under-visited country, wouldn't stand out too much from other Asian visits.
                    So removing one of Taiwan's legs and keeping both of Colombia's would probably be best. :P
                    When I traveled to Taiwan last summer, I took a guided bus tour up to Keelung City and along the northern coast. Beautiful hills with buildings and points of interests adapted into the terrain (Jiufen Old Street, Zhongzheng Park), numerous fishing and crabbing villages spread along the slopes with family-run shops, the seemingly glamorous Tamsui district and Lover's Bridge, the islet into Yehliu Geopark was like a forest blended in with Arizonan Red Rock sandstone, and I also was told and then researched about the dark culture behind those betel nut kiosks planted along the rural roadsides. So many vantage points and a more diverse look into Taiwan. I am surprised The Amazing Race has yet to travel into that region.

                    Taiwan needs a "country" leg. I researched the air options thinking we might see it on 30, and the "other" airport has surprisingly good air connections.

                    If getting into and out of Kyrgyzstan would prove too difficult, it can be subbed for Amman, Jordan (desert themed tasks, visit to Petra included).

                    Also, to reduce to 11 teams and 12 legs- merge Indian legs, turn it into 7th place NEL

                    I think Season 31 will feature:

                    ~Fiji
                    One; Fiji has sponsored and Two; Survivor keeps going back because of budget and Three; would give us a promising Oceania leg!

                    ~Taiwan
                    WAYYYYYYYYY overdue again and has been sponsoring

                    ~Kyrgyzstan
                    Having been visited in the recent HaMerotz LaMillion season, would make for a good new country leg!

                    ~Finland or Sweden
                    Both overdue (Sweden in S25 does NOT count in my books) for another visit and have sooooo much to offer!

                    ~United Kingdom
                    there's always one over used country...

                    Peru would get a penultimate leg for TAR 31, hopefully Lima or Ica.

                    Melbourne is not gunna be visited for quite some time now, as we has 2 vechicar ramming attacks in 2016 and African youth crime is out of control.  :cmas3 There are now police EVERYWHERE on the streets, it's so very unnerving. I they come to Australia, the Gold Coast or Tasmania still remain options!

                    Truss, if they got deemed Melbourne unsuitable you can say goodbye to all major European cities like London, Berlin, Milan & Barcelona.

                    Fiddling with routes a bit and figured out a possible TAR 30 route!!!

                    Leg-1 Los Angeles, United States to Mamanuca Islands, Fiji
                    Mamanuca Islands are being used for Survivor so it just makes sense for CBS to use them for The Amazing Race too!

                    Leg-2 Mamanuca Islands, Fiji to Sydney, Australia
                    Do I want Sydney to be visited? NO Do I think Sydney will be visited? YES

                    Leg-3 Sydney, Australia to Brisbane, Australia
                    The Gold Coast area in general would be great! Or even Cairns!

                    Leg-4 Brisbane, Australia to Nagoya, Japan
                    We just need a cultural leg in Japan! No more robots! (There can still definitely be a game show task)

                    Leg-5 Nagoya, Japan to Siem Reap, Cambodia
                    C'mon! Way overdue. +tarantula eating task

                    Leg-6 Siem Reap, Cambodia to Cape Town, South Africa
                    ostrich riding, shark diving, children work tasks would make this leg incredible! Ostrich riding faceoff???

                    Leg-7 Cape Town, South Africa to Port Elizabeth, South Africa
                    Bungee jump and wildlife! The annual africa routine!

                    Leg-8 Port Elizabeth, South Africa to Dusseldorf, Germany
                    Cultural, not in Bavaria. I was thinking a giant advent calendar task

                    Leg-9 Dusseldorf, Germany to Rovaniemi, Finland
                    Santa tasks, lapland, northern lights. Say no more.

                    Leg-10 Rovaniemi, Finland to Zurich, Switzerland
                    Or Bern. Or Basel. Or Geneva. Or Lucerne. Or Lugano. Or anywhere in Switzerland! I love the Swiss legs!

                    Leg-11 Zurich, Switzerland to Montego Bay, Jamaica
                    Rastafari, bobsledding, Rose Hall, beach, alcohol tasks. The possibilities are endless.

                    Leg-12 Montego Bay, Jamaica to New Orleans, United States or Orlando, United States
                    I would rather Orlando but believe there's a better chance for New Orleans.

                    I see this season perfect for TAR 25-30 All-Stars! Let me know ur thoughts!

                    For season 31, do u guys think there will be a S25-30 cast, or a 21-30 cast if its returnee?

                    I think it will be S25-30 but hope i it's S21-30. Tim/Marie, Bunnies, Max/Katie, Pam/Winnie, Jaymes and James would be my 21-13 pick with Adam/Bethany, Kym/Alli, Tiffany/Krista, Sheri/Cole, Becca/Floyd, and Jess/Cody (if they win Kristi & Jen) (Justin/Diana as a 12th possible team)

                    Phillpinos on RFF (Claude), is Davao safe? If it isn't, a leg will take place in Iloio!

                    Leg 5: Davao, Philippines-Xi'an, China
                    TAR Wouldn't be TAR without going to China! Tasks would include historical tasks related to Xi'an

                    Leg 6: Xi'an China-Chengdu, China
                    Again, TAR wouldn't be TAR without having 2 legs in China! This leg will focus on pandas!

                    Leg 7: Chengdu, China-Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
                    Tasks include going to a mosque, diving with sharks in the aquarium and caring for wildlife

                    Greece historical tasks for this leg!

                    Leg 10: Thessaloniki, Greece-Valencia, Spain

                    Repost from my post above:

                    I would generally think Cusco, Peru for the penultimate leg for TAR 31. It has many notable tourist attractions like Machu Picchu, Sacred Valley and more.

                    Also, South Africa is a long overdue and its been more than a decade was last visited in the original.

                    I'd like to see more new European countries

                    It's been nice for them to pass through the microstates, and even to the sort of European countries of Armenia, Georgia, and Azerbaijan

                    But the last sizable new countries that were squarely in Europe were Denmark and Belgium in S19

                    Anything new since has been a microstate/constituent country of the U.K./Caucasus pseudo-Europe country

                    Still need to see:
                    Bulgaria
                    Bosnia-Herzegovina
                    Serbia
                    Slovenia
                    Montenegro
                    Slovakia
                    Latvia
                    Albania
                    Macedonia

                    Even Belarus and Moldova are outside potentials, yet I could understand why they'd hesitate on those

                    I wouldn't be surprised if we see Luxembourg and San Marino soon though

                    I want a returnee season with earlier booted teams,in this case NFL have a second chance, and after that I want the season(s) with more F/F teams than M/M teams like S17, S25 and most season of TARI or TAR Asia
                    I can't believe TARUS never visited Laos, Laos' visa regime is relative open and easy and the risk for crime is equal or even below some other visited countries.

                    TAR19 was a missed opportunity, as leg 5 was scheduled to be held there.
                    TARV visited Laos in S4 Leg 5, all tasks with the exception of money-making was great in 3 days leg and ended with KOR

                    Leg-9 Rovaniemi, Finland to Zurich, Switzerland
                    Leg-10 Zurich, Switzerland to Cusco, Peru
                    Leg-11 Cusco, Peru to Lima, Peru
                    Leg-12 Lima, Peru to Orlando, United States

                    https://www.rome2rio.com/trip/yrotbztt

                    So here's the breakdown, Leg 1-4 are the only definite ones, my other option is replace Mauritius with another South Africa and then replace Lima with Bahamas (or anywhere in the Caribbean). For Europe, I have no sweet clue I just want/need Switzerland. Finland and Hungary can easily be replaced. I want to maybe add a new country in somewhere, but don't know where. Possibly a new Western Europe. For start, I think Los Angeles is more likely but Seattle better. The Finish Line can be anywhere in the south from Florida to Texas. Tampa, New Orleans, San Antonio, Houston, Florida Keys?? Anywhere in the south works!

                    For tasks/Head-to-Head, why not a real life Mario Kart Head-to-Head in Osaka?? Eat tarantulas in Cambodia, Shark diving in South Africa, llama shaving in peru. I want to see 4 Head-to-Heads a season, have them early though!

                    Why??? We've only seen Australia what 4 times?? Sydney IMO makes the most sense as direct flight from Osaka. Besides, I can visit a beach neighborhood nearby! And if we "can't" visit Brisbane, we'll do Gold Coast!!!!

                    A revisit to Cairns might be nice

                    A visit to the Great Barrier Reef and tasks around coffee production in the region would be great

                    Just a thought, what if Season 31 is UFB2 or AS3. Do we get Seasons 25-30, or 21-30??

                    I think 21-30 would be a way better cast!

                    Season 21-30 Cast
                    ~James & Jaymes (S21)
                    ~Max & Katie (S22)
                    ~Nicky & Kim (S23)
                    ~Kym & Alli (S25)
                    ~Adam & Bethany (S25)
                    ~Tiffany & Krista (S27)
                    ~Justin & Diana (S27)
                    ~Sheri & Cole (S28)
                    ~Becca & Floyd (S29)
                    ~Matt & Redmond (S29)
                    ~Jess & Cody or Kristi & Jen (S30) (If one wins, the other gets on)

                     I didn't include Tim & Marie because they turned down S24 so I doubt they'd come back.

                    If we get a S25-30 cast,
                    ~Adam & Bethany (S25)
                    ~Kym & Alli (S25)
                    ~Matt & Ashley (S26)
                    ~Hayley & Blair (S26)
                    ~Tiffany & Krista (S27)
                    ~Justin & Diana (S27)
                    ~Sheri & Cole (S28)
                    ~Becca & Floyd (S29)
                    ~Matt & Redmond (S29)
                    ~Lucas & Brittany (S30)

                    With Europe I’d say it depends on if you want to visit Finland and Switzerland in Spring/Summer or Fall/Winter

                    With Phil hinting that they might try filming two races this year, 31 would more likely be around April-July

                    If your okay with more Summery legs in those countries, then they’re fine where they’re at, if you want them in the snow, it’s better to save them for 32

                    But that’s not the trend?

                    That only happened last year because it was close to cancellation in 29

                    Just the year before (2015) had two seasons filmed

                    And a main reason there wasn’t a second race in late 2016 or early 2017 was that 29 hadn’t aired yet and was left on hiatus

                    I def wouldn’t call that a trend, especially with how quick the turn around was for this season, and with Phil hinting they might try for 2

                    Besides, if it were to follow the ‘trend’ between 29 and 30, including the exact amount of months between the two, we wouldn’t get a new race filmed until Feb/Mar 2019

                    I say 31 will be Spring/Summer

                    Melbourne's not gunna be visited for a few years, at least till 2020, until a new Premier cleans up our city...

                    And by that I mean youth Africans going around and robbing tourists, including American ones...

                    So, Gold Coast/Tasmania remains a possibility.

                    I often the planned September/October 2018 filming for TAR 31 has not been announced yet for a planned winter 2019 premiere. Finland is getting much cold around October.

                    My huge possibility in European legs for TAR 31 would be Romania, Finland, Spain and the UK.

                    TAR32 can then be filmed Jan/Feb 2019 (for April premiere)

                    Trust me, Gold Coast is my pick too! Just wanted to get opinions.

                    I think we've seen Miami a bit. I was thinking either:

                    Orlando
                    Tampa
                    New Orleans or
                    Boston

                    Orlando does have direct flights from Lima too.

                    Boston

                    Orlando does have direct flights from Lima too.

                    Miami is truly a most visited city in Florida has many tourist attractions like South Beach. We should get a full Miami final leg. Miami does have many direct flights from Europe (London, Paris, Lisbon, Frankfurt, Moscow, etc.).

                    By the way, no South America legs will be for TAR 31 which it is recently done in the last four seasons but it had skipped for TAR 30.

                    I’d say a South America visit is unlikely, more than won’t happen

                    But I’d also say Peru is sorta unlikely too

                    I’d love to see Ecuador as a penultimate country, but could also see Argentina (maybe with Uruguay again?) or Chile, especially for a Fall/Winter filming

                    I’d lean towards seeing SA in S32, hopefully at the end of the race again- I really liked that about S26’s route

                    I feel like we all keep saying this every season for the last few years, but TAR31 should be heavy on Oceania and Asia on a westward route.

                    Oceania is way long overdue and that is my wishlist obligation since TAR 24 All-Stars. I would love to have Oceania for the starting destination in Fiji, then to Australia is the next country in three legs before heading to Asia for two legs (China [Mainland portion] and Cambodia, one leg each per Asian country).

                    I could see a similar pattern for 31 and 32 as we had for 21 and 22, if 31 is Spring/Summer and 32 is Fall/Winter

                    I would say 31 would be an Asian start, with possible Australia visit

                    32 could be that Fiji start we’ve all been waiting for, and work better with the Southern Hemisphere seasons

                    Guys!!! I have my wishlist almost done!!! Here's what I have 100%

                    Leg-1 Los Angeles, United States to Osaka, Japan
                    Leg-2 Osaka, Japan to Sydney, Australia
                    Leg-3 Sydney, Australia to Gold Coast, Australia
                    Leg-4 Gold Coats, Australia to Luang Prabang, Laos
                    Leg-5 Luang Prabang, Laos to Cape Town, South Africa
                    Leg-6 Cape Town, South Africa to Port Elizabeth, South Africa
                    Leg-7 Port Elizabeth, South Africa to Budapest Hungary
                    Leg-9 to Switzerland (not sure on city)
                    Leg-12 to Orlando, United States (or anywhere else in Florida)


                    Leg-8
                    For Leg-8, I took many of your opinions and did a little research and a Lapland leg in the summer (considering this is a summer race) won't work out. So now I'm stuck between:
                    -still Laplands
                    -Southern Finland
                    -Southern Sweden

                    Leg-10/11
                    For these two, I also took your opinions and now I either want to do 2 Peru, 2 Ecuador, 1 Peru/1 Ecuador, or 2 Uruguay. Can I please get some more input! I'm lost with these legs!!!

                    I would love Guayaquil, Ecuador or the Galápagos Islands

                    Cusco would still be nice- I would just love more teams getting to see it

                    Going to Iquitos, Peru could be cool for an Amazon leg(s)

                    I’m not sure on Uruguay tho- haven’t researched it as much

                    It may be tough, but one cool country could be Suriname- has a direct flight from Amsterdam, and options back to the US- they would just have to plan around it’s VERY limited flight schedules

                    Would LOVE to see the unique culture of the region

                    I’ve been wondering if it was still possible to do a race with all new countries, so here’s my best attempt at a 13-leg race:

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA to Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago (EL- 12th place)
                    Leg 2: Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago to Paramaribo, Suriname (EL- 11th place)
                    Leg 3: Paramaribo, Suriname (EL-10th place)
                    Leg 4: Paramaribo, Suriname to Luxembourg City, Luxembourg (EL- 9th place)
                    Leg 5: Luxembourg City, Luxembourg to Libreville, Gabon (NEL- 8 teams)
                    Leg 6: Libreville, Gabon (EL- 8th place)
                    Leg 7: Libreville, Gabon to Bratislava, Slovakia (EL- 7th place)
                    Leg 8: Bratislava, Slovakia to Amman, Jordan (NEL- 6 teams)
                    Leg 9: Amman, Jordan to Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei (EL- 6th place)
                    Leg 10: Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei to Vientiane, Laos (EL- 5th place)
                    Leg 11: Vientiane to Pakse, Laos (KRL- 4 teams)
                    Leg 12: Pakse, Laos to Nadi, Fiji (EL- 4th place)
                    Leg 13: Nadi, Fiji to Salt Lake City, USA (Finale)

                    But anyway, I wish they went to the Goldie on TAR4, instead of the Sunshine Coast or Cairns. Yawn, that coast is BORING!

                    My wishlist for TAR 31 IF it was an All Star Season

                    6 Continent Route
                    1. Melbourne, Australia
                    2. Tasmania, Australia
                    3. Singapore
                    4. Male, Maldives
                    5. Bangalore, India
                    6. Astana, Kazakhstan

                    Teams
                    Brooke and Claire (they were on the TAR Price is Right and they can always use a Female team)
                    Mark and Bopper (I know we don't like 3rd timers, but with Bopper's medical issue keeping him from racing last time I'd think people would be for it)
                    Misti and Jim
                    Kym and Alli
                    Justin and Diana (Not a fan of Justin but I'm trying to be realistic with this. And they won 7 legs so they've earned it)
                    Tiffany and Krista
                    Tanner and Josh
                    Sheri and Cole
                    Tyler and Korey
                    Becca and Floyd (despite meeting as strangers, they live in the same city and do TAR recaps together, so its possible)
                    SEASON 30 SPOT
                    SEASON 30 SPOT

                    Watching the Olympics, I saw a commercial for American Ninja Warrior: USA vs The World. Made me think of the idea of TAR doing something like that and Aus vs NZ. Maybe a TAR US vs The World. Either all All-Stars or all new teams.

                    I know the hurdle before was the passports and visas and such. But now with teams being released from the airport at the same time and mandatory/provided flights, I think that takes care of any logistical concerns about the fairness of different passports.

                    I have been thinking about something similar for a while!

                    What about The Amazing Race: Northern vs Southern

                    Northern Hemisphere teams vs Southern Hemisphere. 12 teams, 12 legs, each leg takes place in the country and city one team is from! Never gunna happen, but been thinking for this idea for AGES!!!

                    Love your idea, BB. I would bet The Amazing Race 31: USA vs. Canada similar to ill-fated The Amazing Race Australia 3: Australia vs. New Zealand.

                    12 teams in 12 legs, 6 newbie USA teams and 6 returning Canadian teams from past seasons of The Amazing Race Canada.

                    I would like to see it, but only from English speaking countries.

                    Could be interesting to see US x Great Britain once, but i would rather see it like this:

                    6 teams from the US
                    6 teams from the World (Australia, Bahamas, Canada, Great Britain, New Zealand and Nigeria)

                    I was thinking All-Star teams from international TARs (Asia, Australia, Philippines, Israel, Vietnam, China, Canada) vs American All Stars. Definitely English speaking teams from all of those franchises.

                    The good thing about a TAR: US vs Canada would be CBS and CTV would have to split paying for it which is how TAR: Aus vs NZ was (Both Seven and New Zealand's TV2 shared costs). That would certainly entice CBS to order another season on the cheap (maybe even in addition to a regular season).

                    I could say on my post seen at above that all-star teams are from TAR Canada, with six new US teams. I hope there could be Nation vs. Nation task on the starting line before heading towards for their first destination. US vs. Canada and one country may dominate.

                    For example, cycle 18 of America's Next Top Model featured seven all-star British models faced with newbie American models.

                    I enjoy the locations, it's just I don't like the Leg 1-6 Canada, Leg 7-12 USA. Mix it up or go worldwide!

                    I haven't checked this thread for like a couple of months or so.

                    Imo, the reason Aus vs NZ wasn't as good as TAR Aus's past seasons was the nation rivalry. The show focused too much on that, and there was a lot of bias among teams from either nation. I personally don't wanna see another TAR version involving only 2 nations, because that's what's gonna happen most likely.

                    When you have teams from several nations involved like TAR Asia, the bias is less if not non-existent. That's why if TAR Aus is getting a 4th season, I'm hoping for it to be TAR Australia & Oceania.

                    :2cents:

                    We can dream (and there is a TINY bit of hope)... BUT it is very unlikely TAR Aus 4 will happen...

                    Nothing announced for 2018...

                    I honestly hope if they want to go back to their roots a bit more then next season should have NO California. I honestly wished that TAR 30 ended in Seattle, (like a reverse TAR 10), because that is longer overdue than San Francisco. Seattle is one of three cities from season 1-11 that need proper finales, the others are Phoenix and Denver. California has been visited more times than China, that says a lot. The last time I want to see California is if they visit the Hollywood Sign as a starting line and that is it. Here are my thoughts as what could be final cities and what they could do in them and what could be the finish line. I'll start off in cities that NEED proper finales first.

                    Seattle: Now this city deserves more credit where its due as it started TWO race traditions. The final memory task. TAR 3 totem poles. It also started the first ever westward route, TAR 10. They could ACTUALLY visit the Space Needle and look for something while on it, probably the Spiders on the roof. They could go to the Gum Wall and have to find and scrape off gum that are race colors. They can catch fish in Pike's Place. Have a clue that says "Go look under a bridge for a surprise" leading them to figure out they need to find the Fremont Troll. Then have make a mad dash to Gas Works Park for the finish line.

                    Phoenix: They could do many desert themed tasks there like go climb Camelback Mountain. Go to the USS Arizona Memorial there again. It would also be cool if they had a task that involved looking around a cactus field for their next clue. The finish line can be in the middle of the desert and have to find Phil and the Finish Line.

                    Denver: Can do a switchback and go to Red Rocks Amphitheater of the flag memory challenge. They can go look for a "Big Blue Creature Staring Inside" leading to figure out that they have to find a the Big Blue Bear. Probably have a task going to the Denver Art Museum for a quick visit. The finish line can be something else overlooking Denver.

                    Now to move on to Three cities I want to see as finales.

                    Boston, Salem, and Plymouth: They can find where the ducks cross and go walk to the Freedom Trail, then go up to Salem to do visit the memorial of all people accused of witches. and do some witch trial tasks. Go back to Boston and go to Harvard where the memory task takes place. Then go all the way down to Plymouth for the Plimouth Plantation and have to find which person is out of character, the thing is it will be very hard to tell and will have to use their minds. After they have found the person, He/She will hand them the next clue. The final clue will ONLY say "1620" and will not tell them that it is the finish line, teams can not ask the people at the Plimouth Plantation, but can ask visitors. That will have to figure out that they need to find Plymouth Rock the finish line for this race.

                    Minneapolis: Honestly the Midwest is underrated in TAR and not used much, they only went to Chicago twice and that's it. They can go to the Mall of America and have to scour the floors to look for their next clue. They can visit the Stone Arch Bridge that's there. Go to the Vikings Stadium, US Bank Stadium and do a task there. Have a task commemorating Prince. Have the final clue say "Finish it all off with a cherry on top" leading them to figure out that The Finish Line is at the Spoonbridge and Cherry.

                    Albuquerque: They can do Indian stuff there. Go to Petroglyph National Monument and have them find petroglyphs. Have them do a hot-air balloon task at the Balloon Fiesta they have there, probably a memory challenge, and before they can blow up they the balloons that will have to get approval. Have both the final task and Finish Line at Sandia Peak.

                    I could type up these things for hours and hours and make up these legs while researching, I might brush these up in the future and add more cities, for them to do final legs legs in.

                    I also think Detroit would be a great finale! They could start by doing a quick dive into Canada, and then there's so much to do with Detroit. They could have a task involving the auto industry, Motown, a baseball stadium task at Comerica Park, and so much more. Detroit is actually a lot safer than people think it is, coming from someone who lives in Michigan. It's really the outskirts of Detroit that aren't very safe, so as long as they stay in Detroit or go to somewhere like Ann Arbor, they'll be perfectly fine. Plus, you can get direct flights from Asia, Europe, and South and Central to Detroit, so it's a great possibility!

                    And how have we had 30 seasons but no finale or start in Philadelphia? There's SO much to do with that and very accessible from Europe (and I think Asia? Not sure).

                    I also think Portland is overdue. The one time they did it was a fabulous final leg.

                    Adding to that, Atlanta and DC are underused. One time for each, and they can do so much with both, and both are very accessible with direct flights. Would also like to see St. Louis, New Orleans, and Baltimore but the problem with those are getting the final direct flights to them (same with Albuquerque).

                    I also think that they need to switch up California a bit. It was great to see San Francisco and finally have a season that didn't visit LA! But that being said, I think they should do San Diego one season. There are flights to and from Tokyo for example, so there's an idea!

                    I'd like to see Orlando/Tampa finale, I think that could be interesting to see.

                    I think Denver could be seen but maybe accompanied by a Skiing area too, that would be cool for a finale.

                    I would like to see Detroit, memory task to do with automobile industry would be very cool.

                    Also, Boston! How has it never been visited?

                    I agree with with a finish in Detroit and probably the memory task can be that teams will have to drive and park the cars in the order of the countries visited with the first and last one being in the US. The cars could be of different companies of cars where they originated from. They could also visit the Renaissance Center.

                    Philadelphia would also be cool. How have they not been there yet too. They could eat philly cheese steaks. Do a task relating to Rocky.
                    The Finish Line could be overlooking Independence Hall. Also a visit to the Liberty Bell as well.

                    While I wouldn't want to see San Diego immediately, it would be cool to visit there. The first thing they should do is go to Balboa Park and do a task there. Their next clue could be the picture of the famous sailor kissing nurse. They soon have to find the statue replicating the photo to get their next clue. The Finish Line can be the Hotel de Coronado.

                    I'm honestly surprised that Texas only held two finales TAR 5 and TAR 26. It is the second largest state and has three cities that are in the top 10 most populous. San Antonio would be cool seeing the riverwalk and finish at the Alamo would be amazing.

                    By the way BritishTARFan, Boston has been visited as a starting line in TAR 17, but never hosted a Finish Line before.

                    Love your idea, BB. I would bet The Amazing Race 31: USA vs. Canada similar to ill-fated The Amazing Race Australia 3: Australia vs. New Zealand.

                    12 teams in 12 legs, 6 newbie USA teams and 6 returning Canadian teams from past seasons of The Amazing Race Canada.

                    MY TAR 31 WISHLIST (REVISED) - see my post at page 151 (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1216129.html#msg1216129)

                    Returning racers seasons I would like to have:
                    ~A season of early boots.
                    ~A season of teams with high averages.
                    ~A season of teams from classic TAR, racing with new race mechanics (i.e. U-turn, EP, 2-roadblock-leg) Also, they're older compared to their original runs.
                    ~A season of teams eliminated by a U-turn.
                    ~A season of winners, probably as a grand finale to the TAR franchise (which I hope won't be happening soon!).
                    ~A season of teams eliminated by navigation issues.
                    ~A season of teams eliminated by a penalty.

                    Gimmick season wishlist, since TAR loves them recently: :P
                    ~A season of teams with racers that are 40 or older. (Most, if not all, of us wanna see "more experienced" racers, right?)
                    ~A season of teams with racers who have disabilities. (Definitely a tough one to cast, but it would be inspiring to watch.)
                    ~A season of "unfit" teams. (Imagine before-and-after images of them before the race and after the race, but that's probably about it. :|)
                    ~A season of artists. (We can have painters, sculptors, musicians, filmmakers, etc.)
                    ~A season of immigrants racing in the US, or North America. (By immigrants, I mean people who have lived in the US for less than the required number of years. I know there's a rule like that before you can apply. Unlikely to happen after TAR8, but it's still cool I think.)
                    ~A season of teams with racers who have appeared on gameshows before. (I'm not even sure if I'll like this idea. :funny: Probably easy to cast I guess? My idea is someone who has competed in Minute to Win It, Jeopardy, Family Feud, etc.)

                    I do think that TAR should take a break from gimmicks, but I think my ideas can have a diverse enough cast. Some of them might not even need recruits.

                    I don't have an entire route, but I'd love to see Finland or Sweden. If I'm not mistaken, neither country has been featured in a while. A Finnish language task would be pretty funny.

                    These are new or underused countries I would like to see in the upcoming seasons.

                    The Americas:
                    Venezuela, Guyana, and Suriname. I know Venezuela might be a big no-no, but they are soooo close to finishing all South America. These are the only three countries that are left. TARLA 2 went to Venezuela, but I think TAR US might avoid it.
                    Canada: They need to visit here again as a first leg or penultimate. Canada is the most visited country to not hold a pit stop before.
                    Costa Rica: A country that hasn't been visited since TAR 8, they need to explore Central American more.
                    Belize: They should really go back and look at canceled leg locations and use them.
                    Jamaica and Dominican Republic: Two island nations that one is under visited and one has been seen in TARLA
                    Peru: Machu Picchu

                    Oceania:
                    Australia: Just go to Melbourne and Tasmania
                    Fiji: A nice tropical location that will make it the third Oceanian country to be visited.

                    Europe:
                    Latvia: Finish all the the Baltic States
                    Slovakia: How have they been to the Czech Republic and not Slovakia yet.
                    Finland: Needs a Pit Stop
                    Vatican City: They could do a whole leg in Rome and end here to make up the unused Fast Forward not used in TAR 1.
                    All of the former Yugoslavia countries: An underused region of TAR

                    Africa:
                    South Africa: Why have they avoided this country for so long.
                    Kenya: Don't know for safety concerns, but what they did to Kenya in TAR 5 is one of the worst things the race has done.
                    Tunisia: I know it might be a bit iffy, but it is the only country visited in the first season that has been never visited again.
                    Mali: Go to Timbuktu

                    Asia:
                    Jordan: Pit Stop at Petra.
                    Qatar: FIFA World Cup 2022 host
                    Laos: Same as Belize
                    Kyrgyzstan: Being visited in Hamerotz Lamillion 6, this country has grown safe over the years and we need more of Central Asia
                    Nepal: They should really visit here.

                    I really want to see another ferry/ship travel to a different country at the start of a leg.

                    When's the last time we had that, anyway?

                    season 29 right? They went from Italy to Greece by sailing I believe.

                    They flew first, then took the ferry.

                    The latest one I can remember is sailing from Italy to Malta in Season 25.

                    I'm really glad that these past two seasons they did some countries that were undervisited. I really hope that they do more of Korea since there's so much there and you can get direct flights to and from all around the US, so it would be good starts/finales. Would love to see Busan when they go back, or if they go back to Seoul that they also do Incheon. I would also really love a double leg here.

                    I think in general they need to visit more locales that haven't been visited. For example, they keep visiting Tokyo and Osaka in Japan, when they could visit Sapporo, Okinawa, Fukuoka, etc. China too, I wish they'd stop overusing the big cities and visit Chongqing or Qingdao, both of which have nonstops to the US. Also think they should visit Lhasa and Urumqi. With Indonesia, I'd like to see Indonesian Borneo, Sumatra, and Indonesian Papua. I'm really glad they went to Chiang Mai this season and stepped away from Bangkok and Phuket, they need to do that more. With Vietnam, I'd love to see Hoi An, Da Nang, Phu Quoc, Sapa, or Nha Trang. I hope when they revisit Taiwan that they go to Kaohsiung, an absolutely beautiful season. In Cambodia, I'll say this: everyone here wants a revisit to Siem Reap, but having just visited Siem Reap, there's really not much to do there outside of Angkor Wat, which they've already visited. I guess they could do something on the Pub Street and then head in the morning to Sihanoukville. Philippines needs to be visited more, would like to see a visit to Cebu. Mongolia is long overdue, but I understand due to costs of getting to Mongolia, it's very difficult.

                    Moving away from that part of Asia—India, they really need to visit Goa, Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, the Indian Himalayas, and so much more. Come on with Nepal! Even Phil says he wants it. Next time they go to Bangladesh, they should mix it up a bit and go to Chittagong. Maldives would be a great pseudo-South Central Asia leg. I'd like to see more Abu Dhabi and less Dubai, and maybe visits to Sharjah, or a quick dip into Oman's Mussandam region (only a few hour drive from Dubai). Glad that they went to Bahrain, but would also like to see Jordan, Lebanon and Qatar. I would LOVE a visit to Iraqi Kurdistan (it's actually very safe and easy to visit). I hope they do more Central Asia, like Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, etc. I think they need to step away from Istanbul in Turkey and go visit Cappadochia.

                    I think a return to Egypt is overdue, maybe this time go to Hurghada, Sharm el-Sheikh, Aswan or Alexandria (I'd also really love for them to visit Abu Simbel). Ethiopia is long overdue. Kenya needs a redo, and I don't know why they haven't visited it for an actual leg. We can all agree on South Africa. Zimbabwe was nice, but that was twice within four seasons, and I'd rather see countries that haven't been visited yet or at least in a long time. Cote d'Ivoire and Togo are great ideas to visit. I'm really glad that the visits to Morocco have mostly been diverse, but would love to see Rabat or Casablanca, although I think we need more time before visiting Morocco again. Tunisia is due for a revisit, they could visit Carthage and do Carthaginian Tasks while there. A final leg in Cape Verde would be great, as there are flights to Boston, or even if it was earlier, they could fly to Brazil.

                    Now Europe. Eastern Europe is undervisited. Everywhere. I'm glad every time they've done Greece they've stepped away for Athens for part of the leg, but would also like to see Thessaloniki and the Greek Islands. I hope when they return to Romania they do an actual leg in Bucharest or maybe something new like Cluj-Napoca. Russia needs less Moscow (maybe a visit to Vladivostok?). Germany needs less Munich, more Frankfurt, Cologne, Baden-Baden, Nuremberg, Dusseldorf, etc. They've been pretty good about mixing Italy up. France too, although I'd like to see a visit to Strasbourg, Montpellier, Lyon or Marseille—they could do a leg where they start in Basel, Switzerland and then end in Strasbourg. We need less London. Spain has been pretty diverse, nothing is really overvisited, and I'm overall surprised we haven't seen Madrid, but I'd like to see Ibiza and Alicante.

                    South America—less Brazil, Argentina, and Chile. More visits to everywhere else in South America. Would like to see Suriname. Not much more to say, considering they mostly just visit Brazil, Argentina and Chile EGGPLANT(although a visit to Recife in Brazil would be a nice change of pace).

                    Central/North America—honestly not too unhappy, but maybe it's because I'm American and it's all close to home. If they do Mexico, they should stay away from Mexico City and Cancun.

                    Oceania—just overall more. Stay away from Sydney. Would love to see Fiji (one of my favorite countries I've been to), Tonga, Palau, and Vanuatu. Go back to Perth, a new visit to Melbourne (hi Bourkie!), Tasmania, some Great Barrier Reef since it's dying, etc. Papua New Guinea would be cool, but it's pretty dangerous, so probably not happening.

                    I wish they would do a leg fully with public transportation in one of the Asian metropolis leg.
                    Like Tokyo, Shanghai or Osaka. It would be hard as hell for teams who do not speak foreign languages.

                    I wish that some countries visited in the F5 or F4 get visited the next time while there are still a lot of teams racing. For example, South Korea and the Philippines has always been visited in the F4. I wanna see it with 9 to 11 teams still racing. Also, Hong Kong usually gets visited in the F4. Out of 5 visits from the US franchise, 4 of them are already at the F4 stage. I'd like to see a Hong Kong leg early in the race.

                    seconded. Seoul is an amazing city but for their next visit they should focus on Busan. I'm pretty sure they can have like a roadblock on a shopping spree in (what I believe to be) the largest supermarket in the world in Busan. In addition to this they could also host tasks on Korean culture and what not.

                    As of which, Japan and Cambodia usually visit on the early stages in westward race route. Cambodia is never done in eastward race. We should have Spain midway between South Africa and Finland.

                    I'd love to also see a NYC start that goes directly to Africa, just like in TAR 1. There are direct flights to Casablanca, Dakar, Accra, and Lagos, all of which are reasonable for first cities (also to Cairo but that's less reasonable). They can then do another African leg or head to Europe.

                    A map I've come up with to illustrate most of these ideas:

                    Starting Line: The High Line, New York City
                    Leg 1: Casablanca, Morocco
                    Leg 2: Ibiza, Spain (Maybe a task relating to the nightlife there)
                    Leg 3: Alicante, Spain
                    Leg 4: Helsinki, Finland
                    Leg 5: Minsk, Belarus
                    Leg 6: Cape Town, South Africa
                    Leg 7: Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan
                    Leg 8: Osh, Kyrgyzstan
                    Leg 9: Perth, Australia
                    Leg 10: Okinawa Island, Japan
                    Leg 11: Nagoya, Japan
                    Leg 12: Detroit, Michigan + Windsor, Canada

                    Thirdeded!

                    Philippines really needs an early Race rural and cultural Leg. The three and a half Legs in the Philippines so far on TARUS have been urban or tropical, despite the carabao tasks. A Leg up in the Cordillera would easily fill the cultural and rural aspect.

                    And Korea definitely can do a pair of Legs, one modern/contemporary in a big city and another rural/cultural Leg. Maybe include a temple. The kimchi task from TAR29 should've totally been on a rural Korea Leg complete with interactions with local people, most likely nice grandmas and grandpas.

                    Maybe the race should be wanted to have a full Barcelona leg and as well as the Finland leg with a normal Pit Stop. Lapland is totally rural on a dense tundra, despite having winter-related tasks like visit Santa Claus village, winter sports like Biathlon or Speed Skating in that area. London should have a full leg that would be in the penultimate race before heading home to the USA (Miami for sure).

                    For s31, Tiffany can't race as she is pregnant I believe. besides, the probability of s31 being a returnees is less, as TAR did pretty great in s30 and could do with another season with a fresh cast.

                    I just finished work on a TAR fanfic and I need help in refining a leg.
                    Leg 1 starts off in Honolulu, and it ends in Busan, South Korea.
                    Can somebody help me design a leg in Tokyo and Busan? Here's the link to the fanfic for reference:

                    Speculation on TAR 31:


                    Well firstly in regards to possible locations, it may be safe to say that TAR is trying to create a trend of visiting countries that they have visited before one or two times and are due a new visit. From this trend, countries that fit this trend are:

                    North America: Canada, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Puerto Rico

                    South America: Bolivia, Ecuador, Uruguay, Paraguay

                    Europe: Croatia, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Ireland (I think this is a very strong possibility), Lithuania, Romania, and Ukraine. Liechtenstein is a possibility too but very unlikely due to the size of the country and what they can do there.

                    Africa: South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mauritius, Mozambique, Senegal, Seychelles, Tunisia

                    Asia: Bangladesh, Cambodia, Oman, Taiwan, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Mongolia

                    Oceania: Anything's fair game, although I think it's more likely to see Australia than New Zealand since it was visited in 18 whereas NZ was visited in 22.


                    Now for countries that are due a visit that have been visited frequently (last season visited is in parentheses):

                    South America: Chile (23)

                    Europe: Germany (26), Russia (21), United Kingdom (25), Austria (23), Spain (24), Sweden (25).

                    Asia: India (27), Japan (26), Malaysia (24)

                    I definitely think India and Japan are very strong contenders. It's been too long, and these are very frequent countries.

                    I also think there's a possibility of bringing back South Korea. When Indonesia was first introduced in 19, it came back 3 more times in the next 5 seasons, possibly because they realized how underused Indonesia was, and South Korea fits the underused, but highly accessible, category. We'll see though. I think the Philippines could fit this too, but not as well as South Korea does.


                    In terms of new visits, I think possible safe bets are Fiji, Laos, Nepal, Jordan, Coté d'Ivoire, Cameroon, Togo, then anything in Eastern Europe or the Caribbean is fair game. I would love to see one of the former-Soviet Central Asian states like Kyrgyzstan or Tajikstan, but due to accessibility, I find this unlikely.

                    Continents that COULD be visited (last season visited in parentheses; new country in italics):

                    Oceania: Australia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Australia_%28converted%29.png) (18)

                    Asia: Japan (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9e/Flag_of_Japan.svg/22px-Flag_of_Japan.png) (26), Laos (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/56/Flag_of_Laos.svg/22px-Flag_of_Laos.png), Cambodia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Flag_of_Cambodia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Cambodia.png) (15)

                    Africa: South Africa (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Flag_of_South_Africa.svg/22px-Flag_of_South_Africa.png) (7)

                    Europe: Germany (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/ba/Flag_of_Germany.svg/22px-Flag_of_Germany.png) (26), Finland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Flag_of_Finland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Finland.png) (10), Latvia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/Flag_of_Latvia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Latvia.png), Spain (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/Flag_of_Spain.svg/22px-Flag_of_Spain.png) (24), Ireland (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Flag_of_Ireland.svg/22px-Flag_of_Ireland.png) (12)

                    South America: Colombia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Colombia.svg/22px-Flag_of_Colombia.png) (28)

                    North America: Jamaica (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0a/Flag_of_Jamaica.svg/22px-Flag_of_Jamaica.png) (7), Costa Rica (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bc/Flag_of_Costa_Rica_%28state%29.svg/22px-Flag_of_Costa_Rica_%28state%29.png) (8 ), Dominican Republic (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9f/Flag_of_the_Dominican_Republic.svg/22px-Flag_of_the_Dominican_Republic.png)

                    I do really think Australia is a strong contender for the starting destination and it is a way long overdue for early winter filming in the Southern Hemisphere. Melbourne is more likely to be the first international city that would show on the route. The second Australian leg will be likely around Great Ocean Route to see of The Twelve Apostles and Loch Ard Gorge.

                    Japan would be likely good to have a chance to revisit. The race would be likely around in Osaka, Kyoto and Nara. Cambodia would have a chance to revisit that has last visited in season 15, Siem Reap is definitely the most visited Cambodian city to travel. Laos is considering a safe place to travel and Vientiane would be a perfect place.

                    South Africa is a huge possibility and the route will be likely in Cape Town and nearby surroundings within two separate legs in one African country.

                    As for Finland, Lapland is definitely unlikely to travel during summer months where in which Helsinki is more urban and areas outside the city is totally a rural landscape. Latvia is more likely and definitely be going to complete the Baltic countries list. Spain is also a strong possibility that can make a visit in Barcelona hasn't seen around in twenty-one seasons. Ireland is also another possibility and Dublin would be the right place to visit the teams including Guinness Storehouse and Saint Patrick's Cathedral.

                    Colombia would be a great choice for the penultimate leg as teams might be around to travel to Bogota with scenic views of the mountain and Spanish colonial landmarks between the modern urbanized background. In addition to this, Costa Rica would give for a revisit in a regular race format and Dominican Republic would be going to have for its first visit to see Santo Domingo with a lush colonial architecture.

                    Regarding about Russia, the country will be unlikely to travel when TAR 31 will film this June due to the World Cup to be held in that country. Definitely it is now out.

                    So, season 31 might travel around six continents into ten countries within 40,000 miles of travel.

                    Gunna be close to Melbourne's CBD for five days in the last week of June so hoping TAR is in town <33333

                    But seriously, if South Africa, Australia and Canada get visited in TAR31 far out in love already <33333

                    Would love to see South Africa, too! Why not have these destinations like:

                    Europe: Portugal, Sweden, Slovenia, Finland or Slovakia - I'd surprisingly like to see Slovakia and Slovenia as combos in action.
                    Asia: Malaysia, Taiwan, Japan, Brunei, or Cambodia - Brunei is really safe, I think?
                    Africa: South Africa, Rwanda?, Ethiopia, or Senegal - Rwanda, of course, is very safe.
                    North & Central America: Canada or Costa Rica - Costa Rica was visited a long time, so I would like to have a comeback.
                    South America: Argentina or Ecuador - Argentina must be visited again this time.
                    Oceania & Australia: Australia or New Zealand + Palau or Fiji - A combination of any one of two best countries plus the minor country.

                    That's all, folks!

                    TAR US should visit and have two legs in Laos, Laos visa regime is easy and crime risk is level or even lower than many visited countries
                    Luang Prabang may be the best choice with some recycled tasks from TAR VN 4 leg 5

                    Melbourne will not have a night leg. Certain areas of the city (St Kilda, Northern suburbs, Western suburbs) are being runned by Youth African gangs who are actually quite violent.

                    Every since Daniel Andrews (our current 'leader), has come to power, Youth crime is up. We've also had two vehicular attacks. DO NOT GO TO ST KILDA AT NIGHT!!!

                    In 2013, the crime rate was down. We have risen since 2015. Look it up.

                    8. Hyderabad, India (via overnight train)


                    Bangalore and Hyderabad are very similar cities, so If you are considering choose one of them. Hyderabad essentially is a less-developed Bangalore and has more of an Islamic influence. Bangalore is a more annoying version of Hyderabad (unbearable traffic, tonnes of people who have moved here and dreadful pollution!). The same goes for Mumbai and Chennai, Chennai essentially is a cleaner Mumbai, with ruder people, whereas Mumbai is super overpopulated and has relatively friendlier people.

                    TAR US should visit and have two legs in Laos, Laos visa regime is easy and crime risk is level or even lower than many visited countries
                    Luang Prabang may be the best choice with some recycled tasks from TAR VN 4 leg 5

                    Vientiane is quite really safe and is being close to Thai border. It is a good place to visit iconic numerous Buddhist temples. Areas between Xaisomboun Province and along the border with Burma are not permitted to go.

                    Every since Daniel Andrews (our current 'leader), has come to power, Youth crime is up. We've also had two vehicular attacks. DO NOT GO TO ST KILDA AT NIGHT!!!

                    In 2013, the crime rate was down. We have risen since 2015. Look it up.

                    You said it, Bourkie. Melbourne CBD is a right place to visit and Brighton beach is plausible for a good place to look with colorful beach huts. It could be a day and sunny leg for Down Under in the Southern Hemisphere winter. TAR US has never done a winter leg in Oceania.

                    Was it that bad in late 2013 when production originally planned on having one in 24 or has it gotten worse?

                    Bourkie this is the sort of stuff which makes you look like a sheltered 16 year old

                    I go to st Kilda regularly (and am there rn) and i live in the northern suburbs- there are no problems lmao

                    Pls get ur stuff together u can make better posts with less misinformation than this

                    Melbourne is perfectly safe and a night leg should totally happen despite what fearmongers (bourkie) say

                    I totally agree with a visit to Laos. They can do a leg in Luang Prabang and then do a visit to Vang Vieng, kind of similar to TAR 29's Hanoi then Ninh Binh. Vientiane, according to several people I met while backpacking around Asia, is pretty boring compared to the rest of Laos and I think those two places, or maybe even Phonsavan would be really cool. Keeping to Southeast Asia, I'd really like to see a visit to Myanmar (I just did one in my fantasy game  :lol:) and go to Bagan, which would make another incredible Southeast Asian leg.

                    We also haven't had a visit to Russia since 21, which is kind of understandable given the current relations between us and them. In my opinion, the Russian legs always seem to have at least one difficult task :

                    5 - Caviar task (would LOVE this as a Switchback, even as just a fast forward)
                    9 - Russian nesting doll task
                    13 - the entire penultimate leg
                    14 - wood stacking
                    17 - music/film detour
                    21 - synchronized swimming, time zones

                    I would like a visit to St Petersburg! It's been a bit, and then we can do the Caviar task again. If not, I'd really just like to skip Moscow altogether and go somewhere new. Maybe a visit to Vladivostok? A winter leg in Sochi would be cool, they can do Olympic tasks.

                    What do you guys think?

                    Melbourne will not have a night leg. Certain areas of the city (St Kilda, Northern suburbs, Western suburbs) are being runned by Youth African gangs who are actually quite violent.

                    Bourkie, Melbourne is ranked #1 in the most habitable city in the world according to the Economist Intelligence Unit for seven years straight in a row. I would love a visit to Melbourne. The Race has surprised in the past. I would not find it shocking that the next visit to Australia will include Melbourne, day or night. Just wanted to say this and now onto my route for TAR 31

                    Starting Line: Hollywood Sign
                    Leg 1: (Los Angeles, California---> Nadi, Fiji) Pit Stop: a beach area
                    Leg 2: (Nadi, Fiji---> Launceston, Tasmania) Pit Stop: Cataract Gorge
                    Leg 3: (Launceston, Tasmania---> Melbourne, Victoria) Pit Stop: Shrine of Remembrance
                    Leg 4: (Melbourne, Victoria---> Vientiane, Laos) Pit Stop: Patuxai
                    Leg 5: (Vientiane, Laos---> Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan) Pit Stop: Burana Tower
                    Leg 6: (Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan---> Doha Qatar) Pit Stop: Pearl and Oyster Fountain
                    Leg 7: (Doha, Qatar---> Johannesburg, South Africa) Pit Stop: Cradle of Humankind
                    Leg 8: (Johannesburg, South Africa---> Montevideo, Uruguay) Pit Stop: The Hand in the Sand
                    Leg 9: (Montevideo, Uruguay---> Cuzco, Peru) Pit Stop: Machu Picchu
                    Leg 10: (Cuzco, Peru---> Belize City, Belize) Pit Stop: Xunantunich
                    Leg 11: (Belize City, Belize---> Winnipeg, Manitoba) Pit Stop: Assiniboine Park
                    Leg 12: (Winnipeg, Manitoba---> Minneapolis/St Paul, Minnesota) Finish Line: Spoonbridge and Cherry

                    So that is 5 new countries: (Fiji, Laos, Kyrgyzstan, Qatar, and Belize)
                    1 country that's been visited once: (Uruguay)
                    2 countries that have been visited twice: (Peru, Canada)
                    1 country that has been visited three times: (South Africa)
                    1 country that has been visited four times: (Australia)
                    Then lastly Minnesota will become the 25th state to be visited in the race.

                    Not sure if Fiji would visit by new teams, since we already have French Polynesia since TAR22. My guess is that Australia is a high possibility so it should be looking like this:

                    Pre-Leg: Los Angeles, California, USA
                    Leg 1: USA  》 San Jose, Costa Rica , Pitstop: Parque Nacíonal Manuel Antonio
                    Leg 2: Costa Rica  》Hobart, Tasmania, Australia , Pitstop: Port Arthur
                    Leg 3: Tasmania, Australia  》 Melbourne, Victoria, Australia , Pitstop: Royal Exhibition Building
                    Leg 4: Australia  》 Penang, George Town, Malaysia , Pitstop: Kek Lok Si Temple
                    Leg 5: Malaysia  》 Luang Prabang, Laos , Pitstop: Mount Phousi view
                    Leg 6: Luang Prabang  》 Vientiane, Laos , Pitstop: Patuxai
                    Leg 7: Laos  》 Kigali, Rwanda , Pitstop: somewhere in the streets overlooking Kigali Tower
                    Leg 8: Rwanda  》 Lalibela, Ethiopia ,  Pitstop: Rock-Hewn Churches
                    Leg 9: Ethiopia   》 Ljubljana, Slovenia , Pitstop: Prešeren Square
                    Leg 10: Slovenia  》Faro, Algarve, Portugal , Pitstop: at a nearby beach
                    Leg 11: Portugal  》 Dublin, Ireland (with Blarney & Kilkenny) , Pitstop: Kilkenny Castle
                    Leg 12: Ireland  》 Cleveland, Ohio, USA ,
                    Pitstop: Cleveland Museum of Art

                    Minnesota would be a good place for the final leg as the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area is considering very likely and safe that TAR will visit the West North Central region of the USA. It would be the 25th US state to visit TAR, enough of New York, Nevada and California final leg visits.

                    I'm not sure about the prospect of going to Myanmar. Right now there is kind of a civil war and there is a lot of civil strife between the Muslim and Buddhist communities in Myanmar. Look em' up : Rohingya Muslims.
                    As a result of internal violence and discrimination, The Rohingyas are migrating to Bangladesh where they are being massacred for illegally entering the country for refuge. Plus, I think Aung San Suu Kyi is being prosecuted, and there's just a whole lot of drama going down there. Besides, Myanmar and Thailand and their neighbouring countries are sort of similar. I'd seriously opt for Laos instead.

                    Yes! I agree with Russia. I did a fic with Vladivostok, and there's enough for 2 legs in Vladivostok. I highly recommend the race visit Russia again.

                    I agree on Laos and also to Cambodia to make a Southeast Asia bi-country combo in two legs. One in Vientiane and the other is Siem Reap.

                    Vladivostok in Russia seems more unlikely that flight routes between East Asian cities to that city have daily limited schedule flights.

                    Same perhaps. You can also try out Vang Vieng in Laos and Sihanoukville in Cambodia. They are great cities too.
                    Also it's not necessary that we need flights from east asian cities to vladivostok. You could also fly in from Juneau/Anchorage, and for that matter people even fly from Japan and ROK. I still think Vladivostok can be possible!

                    However its really close to north korea and they might capture the teams and bring them to north korea like what they did to south koreans

                    I totally agree with a visit to Laos. They can do a leg in Luang Prabang and then do a visit to Vang Vieng, kind of similar to TAR 29's Hanoi then Ninh Binh. Vientiane, according to several people I met while backpacking around Asia, is pretty boring compared to the rest of Laos and I think those two places, or maybe even Phonsavan would be really cool. Keeping to Southeast Asia, I'd really like to see a visit to Myanmar (I just did one in my fantasy game  :lol:) and go to Bagan, which would make another incredible Southeast Asian leg.

                    We also haven't had a visit to Russia since 21, which is kind of understandable given the current relations between us and them. In my opinion, the Russian legs always seem to have at least one difficult task :

                    5 - Caviar task (would LOVE this as a Switchback, even as just a fast forward)
                    9 - Russian nesting doll task
                    13 - the entire penultimate leg
                    14 - wood stacking
                    17 - music/film detour
                    21 - synchronized swimming, time zones

                    I would like a visit to St Petersburg! It's been a bit, and then we can do the Caviar task again. If not, I'd really just like to skip Moscow altogether and go somewhere new. Maybe a visit to Vladivostok? A winter leg in Sochi would be cool, they can do Olympic tasks.

                    What do you guys think?

                    I'm not sure about the prospect of going to Myanmar. Right now there is kind of a civil war and there is a lot of civil strife between the Muslim and Buddhist communities in Myanmar. Look em' up : Rohingya Muslims.
                    As a result of internal violence and discrimination, The Rohingyas are migrating to Bangladesh where they are being massacred for illegally entering the country for refuge. Plus, I think Aung San Suu Kyi is being prosecuted, and there's just a whole lot of drama going down there. Besides, Myanmar and Thailand and their neighbouring countries are sort of similar. I'd seriously opt for Laos instead.

                    Yes! I agree with Russia. I did a fic with Vladivostok, and there's enough for 2 legs in Vladivostok. I highly recommend the race visit Russia again.

                    I'm aware of the situation in Myanmar, I spent an entire semester researching it for one of my classes. But that's in the Rakhine state. When I backpacked around Asia in December/January, I met a lot of people who visited Yangon and/or Bagan and they absolutely loved it and it was safe. But I guess TAR probably won't take risks.

                    Would really love to see Laos, would really prefer not Vientiane.

                    Also on the topic of Southeast Asia, I know they just visited Vietnam (my favorite country I've ever been to), but I hope the next time they visit, they go somewhere completely new like Nha Trang or Phu Quoc.

                    Minnesota would be a good place for the final leg as the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area is considering very likely and safe that TAR will visit the West North Central region of the USA. It will be the 25th US state to visit TAR and the first new state since TAR 19.

                    Since when it was heard, Claude?

                    Due to language difficulties sometimes Claude presents things as FACT instead of using the conditional "Could/Might/May/wish/possibly" occur.

                    So take it FWIW.

                    There are two things I really liked that TAR 30 brought back.

                    1. Starting the race in Europe. The last season to do this was TAR 17. Since then, there has been 6 east-bound routes, all of which either went to the Caribbean or South America before heading to Europe/Africa. I would love for TAR to do this more often, or maybe start the race in Africa (as I mentioned before, there are direct flights to Africa from NYC and other American airports). Of course, I really hope that TAR 31 is a west-bound route, but if not, I hope they change it up again

                    2. Starting and ending this race outside of Los Angeles. I think we can all agree we're tired of seeing Los Angeles. San Francisco was a nice change up, but I'd also like to go back to the old Amazing Race style of starting and ending the race outside of Los Angeles. Los Angeles can happen every now and then, but I'm sick of seeing it every season.

                    Israel is looooooooooong due. Tbh there are so many things to do in Israel and TAR definitely should visit, but granted the violence they should avoid it for some time...

                    I agree that a visit to Israel is a bad idea. Personally, I am pro-Palestine but favor a two state solution, but politics aside, I think a visit to Israel may alienate a lot of the pro-Palestine viewers, and is a bad idea at a time that TAR is trying to win back ratings. Israel is NOT a good choice. Jordan is safe and great to visit though! Or maybe a visit to Beirut in Lebanon—two middle eastern countries that haven't been visited. We won't see Qatar because production has already stated they won't because of the disorganization of the government there, and we won't see visits to Saudi Arabia, Yemen, or Syria anytime soon, so those are two countries that are great ideas to visit for new visits! Or like I said before, Iraqi Kurdistan is VERY safe and has very relaxed visa requirements.

                    I second this! Both Taiwan and South Korea are undervisited East Asian countries with direct flights to the US. Would love to see more of both and less China.

                    Another Europeless route? :/ why

                    We need to see less Europe to be honest, if they want to there again then visit a former Yugoslavia country or an underused country, they have to stop going to France, Germany, Italy, and Switzerland. If they want to do Italy again, then visit the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Also how have they not gone there yet out of all their visits to Italy. Here are countries in Europe I would want to see:

                    Latvia: Complete the Baltic States.
                    Slovakia: They've visited the Czech Republic before so why not complete the the former Czechoslovakia.
                    Bosnia and Herzegovina: It's right there, also a Yugoslavia country
                    Luxembourg: It's small, but they can think of stuff to do there.
                    Finland: As much as I liked TAR 10, the tasks they did in Finland could have been done anywhere. Needs to be represented better.
                    Hungary: Is long overdue, and we need a switchback to the spicy soup.

                    All I'm saying is that we need more variety in Europe.

                    Honestly I think it can be done, especially if they're trying to save money - though really that's because they keep insisting on going to like, Iceland or France or Germany or other super expensive western European countries. Instead of visiting Europe, why not visit some of their colonial possessions (read: more Caribbean legs  :cheer: or parts of India / central Asia  :luvya: or doing research into countries with a history of foreign occupation)?

                    Besides with the Middle East, Bahrain has recently visited in season 30 and it could definitely not going to visit the region in TAR 31.

                    Yass. European Legs are some of the best ones.
                    IMO they should just finish Western Europe by s31, there are only 2 countries which they haven't visited - Luxembourg and Andorra. In addition to this some of the other countries are also undervisited:
                    Iceland - visited twice, season 6 & 30.
                    Ireland - visited once, season 12.
                    England - visited four times, season 3, 7, 17, 25
                    Scotland - visited twice, season 22, 25
                    Northern Ireland - visited once, season 22

                    Spain - visited four times, season 3, 10, 21, 24
                    Portugal - visited twice, season 3 & 23.
                    Luxembourg, Andorra and Liechtenstein have never been visited (One roadblock in Liechtenstein, season 18)

                    They should either make a full fledged visit to Eastern Europe or cover any of these (except for Belgium and Iceland ofc)

                    Spain - visited four times, season 3, 10, 21, 24
                    Portugal - visited twice, season 3 & 23.
                    Luxembourg, Andorra and Liechtenstein have never been visited (One roadblock in Liechtenstein, season 18)

                    They should either make a full fledged visit to Eastern Europe or cover any of these (except for Belgium and Iceland ofc)

                    Northern Ireland,Wales and Scotland are part of England so its counted together

                    Israel and Jordan would be great. Pair them with a colder northern European country or something for the middle of a route.

                    Besides with the Middle East, Bahrain has recently visited in season 30 and it could definitely not going to visit the region in TAR 31.
                    True however they might skip one season then do middle east again this happened when Tar 28 went the Ameria and Goregia 9Are the middle east i am not that sure) but Dhabi is middle east and the went there and then the skipped a season and went to Bahrin so it means we need to wait to Tar 32 and for an extra note i think Tar will not go to india for a long time cause they been there so many times 1, 4, 5, 7, 10, 12, 13, 14, 18, 20, 27

                    1] I love your wishlist ! This would sound like a really beautiful race. 2 double u-turns and one triple u-turn  :funny: some teams are going to get wrecked really bad by this.
                    2] Is the list in ascending leg-wise order? if so, you can't start the race by traveling from Boston to Jerusalem, and then go back west-side towards Morocco.
                    I've arranged it in west-to-east order here:
                    Show content

                    Leg 1 : Boston, Massachusetts, USA --> Barcelona, Spain
                    Leg 2 : Barcelona, Spain --> Rabat, Morocco
                    Leg 3 : Rabat, Morocco --> Tataouine, Tunisia
                    Leg 4 : Tataouine, Tunisia --> Zakouma National Park, Chad
                    Leg 5 : N'Djamena, Chad --> Santorini, Greece (you mentioned that Greece is beautiful, so I chose Santorini : ) )
                    Leg 6 : Santorini, Greece --> Brest, Belarus
                    Leg 7 : Minsk, Belarus
                    Leg 8 : Minsk, Belarus --> Jerusalem, Israel
                    Leg 9 : Jerusalem, Israel --> Doha, Qatar
                    Leg 10 : Doha, Qatar --> Xi'an, China
                    Leg 11 : Xi'an, China --> Jeju City, South Korea
                    Leg 12 : Jeju City, South Korea --> Roswell, New Mexico, USA


                    3] Jerusalem raises some eyebrows... USA and Jerusalem aren't exactly on the most peaceful terms. Since you seem so keen on Israel, switch it for Tel Aviv or some place exotic like Rosh Hanikra. Qatar has a very less probability being visited as Manama, Bahrain was just visited in season 30. Same goes for Rabat, Tangiers was just visited season 30. Even Greece seems like a bit doubtful, as we visited it in s29, but then again they visited Indonesia continuously from s21 to s23, so all these might just be possible.

                    4] Your passion for American Ninja Warrior is really well-wrought  :lol: I second that.

                    I wholeheartedly agree on diversity in European visits, I would sure love them to keep visiting new countires in Europe (and I don't get why some of them haven't been visited in 30 seasons), but skipping Europe entirely doesn't seem right to me, no matter how diverse your route is.

                    Yass. European Legs are some of the best ones.
                    IMO they should just finish Western Europe by s31, there are only 2 countries which they haven't visited - Luxembourg and Andorra. In addition to this some of the other countries are also undervisited:
                    Iceland - visited twice, season 6 & 30.
                    Ireland - visited once, season 12.
                    England - visited four times, season 3, 7, 17, 25
                    Scotland - visited twice, season 22, 25
                    Northern Ireland - visited once, season 22
                    Wales - visited once, season 24
                    Belgium - visited twice, season 19 & 30.
                    Spain - visited four times, season 3, 10, 21, 24
                    Portugal - visited twice, season 3 & 23.
                    Luxembourg, Andorra and Liechtenstein have never been visited (One roadblock in Liechtenstein, season 18)

                    They should either make a full fledged visit to Eastern Europe or cover any of these (except for Belgium and Iceland ofc)

                    Northern Ireland,Wales and Scotland are part of England so its counted together

                    *United Kingdom
                    Yes, I know it's technically counted together but I've taken them as British Isles because I visited the UK last year and the people, the culture and the ways of life in all these different isles are so vastly different. Even if you look into the history of the formation of the UK, most of these were just forced in. When Wolfe Tone rebelled against the British Troops Ireland was just incorporated into UK. It took Ireland a long time to gain independence, and finally post the Irish War of Independence from 1919 to 1921 Ireland became what it is known today. Northern Ireland is still a part of the UK, but at least we have Ireland as a separate country. Similarly Wales and Scotland are on a whole new paradigm as compared to England. That's why I took them separate.

                    If I ever made a wishlist of what I wanted TAR to do in my country/area, I would love them to do a countryside leg and self-drive around The Curonian Spit (look it up :colors) and the towns on it.
                    But I agree that both Lithuania and Latvia on the same route would feel a bit same-y, unless, like I said, we had a countryside leg and a city leg to make those legs different.

                    I don't see anything wrong with going to a Middle Eastern country in consecutive seasons when TAR goes to the same country in consecutive seasons. Especially since an Israel or Jordan would be a new country, each with very iconic locations that would make any Legs in either country distinct and different from a UAE or Bahrain visit.

                    Jordan (Petra) would be an AMAZING place to visit <33333333333333

                    I think we need to wary though. Like I said before, now is not a good time for an Israel visit due to TAR trying to recover ratings and an Israel visit could alienate a large portion of their fanbase.

                    Due to the political status of the US and Israel, it will be unlikely, and why are people complaining about visiting the Middle East twice in a row when they visited India for three consecutive season being TAR 12-14. They've done the Middle East twice in a row before. TAR 9 in Oman (was a new country at the time) and then one season later in TAR 10 they visited Kuwait (only visited in season 10 and is the deepest in the Middle East they've gone.) I hope they can break Kuwait's record any time soon. Now I'll have (yet another) countries from ___ region again:

                    Qatar: I know this might be unlikely, but this is where they are hosting FIFA 2022, and will make a nice visit.
                    Jordan: The only wonders of the (modern) world they have visited are The Great Wall of China, Cristo Redentor, The Colosseum, and The Taj Mahal, I feel like Petra and Jordan are long overdue and will break Kuwait's record. After this they will have visited all countries that start with "J."
                    Lebanon: Now if they stay close or in Beirut and avoid the Lebanon/Syria border then it will be all right.
                    Iraqi Kurdistan: I agree 100% with nrh2110 with this. It will be a nice surprise and we need more positives of Iraq. Like I said with Lebanon if they stay away from borders they will be all right.
                    Kuwait: I would love to see this country again and have a switchback, to what I think is the most dangerous Fast Forward the race has ever done.

                    I highly doubt any country would alienate TAR viewers. Especially now.
                    And to be honest, I think a return to Russia would alienate more viewers than a visit to Israel.

                    At the same time, you could "alienate" viewers who have negative views on Vietnam or any other communist country or the Philippines because you think the president is horrible, for example.

                    TAR visiting a country has never been about supporting or rebuking its government or politics. At least a 1/3 of the countries already visited would've been eliminated in the planning stages if so. Racers' safety, whether or not they can get TV-ready locations and what kinds of incentives the local tourism board are offering are a higher priority than making a geopolitical statement.

                    Comparing Israel to Philippines or Vietnam is a terrible analogy. There's a huge difference in sentiment between those who are just against political views and those who are against a country because of their apartheid/genocidal tendencies, to the point that they will boycott anything that supports that country, in this case, Israel. The Wonder Woman, for example, was successful, but not as successful as it could've been because of Gal Gadot's history of supporting Israel's militant/hawkish/genocidal/apartheid policies. I saw that at my university. Amazing Race does not want to risk this, especially now given the contentions between pro-Israeli and pro-Palestinian groups being as high as they are now. Maybe I'm wrong and they will, but it's a bad move, and TAR is pretty smart about it. Hence, this is why Philippines and Vietnam is not a good analogy.

                    Russia on the other hand, you're right, will probably alienate some viewers, so now that I think about it, it probably won't happen, at least until things cool down between us and them. But it's still not comparable to Israel.

Look at my earlier post on this page about Oman and Kuwait. They don't need to wait about 2-5 seasons to visit the same region again. Look at Zambia and Namibia for example they are both in Southern Africa and they are both different countries with different cultures and most importantly different terrain. Namibia is mostly desert while Zambia is mostly a rain forest/savanna. All I'm trying to say is that you should put more research in posts. I'm not trying to sound mean but I put research in my Wish Lists and know which countries to avoid and which are safe. I might make mistakes, but that is normal.

                    You are not understanding what we are saying, ties with Israel and the United Kingdom are different than ties with Israel and the United States. There is a reason as to why current events reflect on the countries they can visit. Look at Tunisia and Egypt for example. They were safe to visit at the time when TAR 1 and TAR 5 were filming. Then go to the present day and Tunisia and Egypt have had major political problems. Bertram said himself that Egypt was "Off the list" at the time the violent revolution in the country started.

                    If I ever made a wishlist of what I wanted TAR to do in my country/area, I would love them to do a countryside leg and self-drive around The Curonian Spit (look it up :colors) and the towns on it.
                    But I agree that both Lithuania and Latvia on the same route would feel a bit same-y, unless, like I said, we had a countryside leg and a city leg to make those legs different.

                    I looked up the Curonian Spit and asdfghjkl IT'S SO PRETTY!
                    Yes Actually you can have like a countryside leg which focuses more on the culture and then a city leg, sounds like a good idea!

                    Due to the political status of the US and Israel, it will be unlikely, and why are people complaining about visiting the Middle East twice in a row when they visited India for three consecutive season being TAR 12-14. They've done the Middle East twice in a row before. TAR 9 in Oman (was a new country at the time) and then one season later in TAR 10 they visited Kuwait (only visited in season 10 and is the deepest in the Middle East they've gone.) I hope they can break Kuwait's record any time soon. Now I'll have (yet another) countries from ___ region again:

                    Qatar: I know this might be unlikely, but this is where they are hosting FIFA 2022, and will make a nice visit.
                    Jordan: The only wonders of the (modern) world they have visited are The Great Wall of China, Cristo Redentor, The Colosseum, and The Taj Mahal, I feel like Petra and Jordan are long overdue and will break Kuwait's record. After this they will have visited all countries that start with "J."
                    Lebanon: Now if they stay close or in Beirut and avoid the Lebanon/Syria border then it will be all right.
                    Iraqi Kurdistan: I agree 100% with nrh2110 with this. It will be a nice surprise and we need more positives of Iraq. Like I said with Lebanon if they stay away from borders they will be all right.
                    Kuwait: I would love to see this country again and have a switchback, to what I think is the most dangerous Fast Forward the race has ever done.

                    Yes, Kuwait's fast-forward was super dangerous and I feel that we should have a switchback to this but make it a roadblock instead! Qatar and Bahrain are really similar countries, but nonetheless Qatar also has its own variety of tasks to do. It's highly doubtful that they'll visit Qatar in a season right after Bahrain, and if you look at TAR 10's route they visited 12 countries (excluding US) in 12 legs and 1 double length leg, which is why they would have decided to include Kuwait and 2 African Nations (Mauritius and Madagascar). I think the race is focusing more on African countries as not only is Africa under-explored on the race but also because US has mostly peaceful relations with them. It's really surprising and good to see that we got Morocco, Zimbabwe & Bahrain in TAR 30. So, if TAR follows a similar route to TAR 30 and wants only one leg in Qatar (which would be underwhelming) they should definitely take it. But when there are dozens of European and African countries under-explored, it's the race's decision on where to go.
                    You can't visit Lebanon and Israel in the same season, granted that there are no flights from Israel to Beirut or any relation whatsoever at all between Israel and Lebanon.
                    Jordan is a pretty good idea. Jordan is just like the other middle-eastern countries but Jordan is not so similar that it would just be a UAE revisit. Jordan seems pretty good to go. I like the idea of going to Jordan, it would be new and unique.
                    Again Iraq is not the safest. Sure the Kurdistan is well protected but the race can't put the racers' life at risk just for visiting Iraq. The news might report Iraq safe, but there is still a lot of insurgency in other parts of Iraq and even if somebody tips them off Iraqi rebels might attack, and even if they are held off it's a risk the race can't take.

                    Jordan: The only wonders of the (modern) world they have visited are The Great Wall of China, Cristo Redentor, The Colosseum, and The Taj Mahal, I feel like Petra and Jordan are long overdue and will break Kuwait's record. After this they will have visited all countries that start with "J."
                    Lebanon: Now if they stay close or in Beirut and avoid the Lebanon/Syria border then it will be all right.
                    Iraqi Kurdistan: I agree 100% with nrh2110 with this. It will be a nice surprise and we need more positives of Iraq. Like I said with Lebanon if they stay away from borders they will be all right.
                    Kuwait: I would love to see this country again and have a switchback, to what I think is the most dangerous Fast Forward the race has ever done.

                    Yes, Kuwait's fast-forward was super dangerous and I feel that we should have a switchback to this but make it a roadblock instead! Qatar and Bahrain are really similar countries, but nonetheless Qatar also has its own variety of tasks to do. It's highly doubtful that they'll visit Qatar in a season right after Bahrain, and if you look at TAR 10's route they visited 12 countries (excluding US) in 12 legs and 1 double length leg, which is why they would have decided to include Kuwait and 2 African Nations (Mauritius and Madagascar). I think the race is focusing more on African countries as not only is Africa under-explored on the race but also because US has mostly peaceful relations with them. It's really surprising and good to see that we got Morocco, Zimbabwe & Bahrain in TAR 30. So, if TAR follows a similar route to TAR 30 and wants only one leg in Qatar (which would be underwhelming) they should definitely take it. But when there are dozens of European and African countries under-explored, it's the race's decision on where to go.
                    You can't visit Lebanon and Israel in the same season, granted that there are no flights from Israel to Beirut or any relation whatsoever at all between Israel and Lebanon.
                    Jordan is a pretty good idea. Jordan is just like the other middle-eastern countries but Jordan is not so similar that it would just be a UAE revisit. Jordan seems pretty good to go. I like the idea of going to Jordan, it would be new and unique.
                    Again Iraq is not the safest. Sure the Kurdistan is well protected but the race can't put the racers' life at risk just for visiting Iraq. The news might report Iraq safe, but there is still a lot of insurgency in other parts of Iraq and even if somebody tips them off Iraqi rebels might attack, and even if they are held off it's a risk the race can't take.

                    No IRAQ no no no no :nono2: :nono2: :nono2: firstly it is one hardest countrey to even get in and they don't really allow photos Iraq is even harder to get it then North Korea that reminds me do a leg in North Korea

                    Iraq isn’t like that lol...you can get a 30 day visa free entry into Kurdistan and its one of the safest places in the Middle East.

                    Due to the political status of the US and Israel, it will be unlikely, and why are people complaining about visiting the Middle East twice in a row when they visited India for three consecutive season being TAR 12-14. They've done the Middle East twice in a row before. TAR 9 in Oman (was a new country at the time) and then one season later in TAR 10 they visited Kuwait (only visited in season 10 and is the deepest in the Middle East they've gone.)

                    Politics is the second-dumbest thing the human race has ever invented. It ruins everything.

                    What's the first-dumbest thing we have invented?

                    Fidget spinners.

                    - re: Israel - Production would probably have to build the route around a visit to Israel (so maybe US - South America - Europe - Israel - SE Asia - US); it's doable but then the issue becomes what can people safely do (so a leg in Tel Aviv or by the Dead Sea) vs what would people want from a leg in Israel (Jerusalem). I would give it time.  :d025:

                    - re: Qatar - Aside from the issue of 'we just visited Bahrain in TAR 30', I believe you have the same issue right now of planning a route around it since you can't connect through DXB or AUH; while this is served far more easily by (direct flight to DOH) - Qatar - (direct flight from DOH) I would give it time.  :d025:

                    (honestly I would prefer Jordan x2 but that's me)

                    Enough of eastbound routes started from TAR 27 and let's move on for TAR 31 to take a westbound route. Middle East could be very skipped for now so the route may include Australia as the starting destination (so maybe US - Australia - (South)East Asia - Africa - Europe - South America - US). As we said in posts above, Israel might be dangerous where teams could go to Jerusalem and nearby Palestinian territories such as West Bank including ancient Biblical towns of Jericho and Hebron.

                    Do your research.

                    Read the US TRAVEL GUIDELINES: https://www.state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2018/01/276945.htm

                    Search country by country for travel warnings: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories.html

                    HIGHLY unlikely TAR will go anywhere not listed as a #1 or possibly a #2.

                    Some places could surprise you: Myanmar is a 1 right now , for example.

                    IRAQ is a definite no go.

                    Remember that what might be possible for an Aussie or a Filipino may NOT be possible for an American.

                    Like I said before, Iraqi Kurdistan is completely different than Iraq itself.

                    In terms of visa policy:

                    (http://image.ibb.co/bQ6spn/Screen_Shot_2018_03_24_at_5_57_20_AM.png)

                    And as WikiTravel says:

                    Quote
                    Apart from the 3 Kurdish provinces, it is not safe to travel to the disputed places. While it is very safe to travel to Duhok, Erbil, and Sulaymaniya, it is not safe to travel to Kirkuk or Diyala.

                    In other words, Erbil would be fine to have a leg in, which is where I thought they'd have one anyway, and also the easiest to get to.


                    I'd put Kurdistan in the list of possible surprises.

                    I'd put Kurdistan in the list of possible surprises.

                    You have to go by the US TRAVEL ADVISORIES not Wikipedia.

                    There are some encouraging signs: https://iq.usembassy.gov/united-states-welcomes-reopening-iraqi-kurdistan-airports-international-flights/

                    But at the moment all of Iraq is status 4.


                    But Kyrgyzstan on the other hand is a #1.

                    Just glancing but it seems Bhutan is 1 and while I know the visa situation there is complex, I think there's precedent for TAR visits being "sponsored" by some agency or organization so maybe? 99% sure they would make it an NEL though lol

                    Not really! I visited Bhutan in early 2017 and Bhutan is not that strict with visa admissions I forgot I'm an Indian and Indian citizens get a visa on arrival...
                    Still though, Bhutan Is BEAUTIFUL. It's worth all the hassle.

                    But For me a hongkonger it is so much harder i took me so long to get my visa for Bhutan and lots of chinese and hongkongers want to go there so its really hard I think it is the Same for the other countries that are not nieghbours of Bhutan.

                    If there's any part of the world that I find underrated I would say it's Central Asia. Why doesn't TAR visit these "-stan" countries. The only one they visited is Kazakhstan. Central Asia needs more love. Of course they won't visit Afghanistan or Pakistan right now. I want them to stop visiting China and Southeast Asia in general. It's overdone, if you want to visit this region again then visit Laos or Myanmar (Burma), those will be something new. I want all the SAFE "-stan" countries visited. I would personally choose Kyrgyzstan as my pick for the next they visit. Many of the former Soviet Union nations in Asia have grown safe between the time the separated and to present day. Another country that I find surprising that the race has not gone back and visited is Kenya. I know it might be a bit iffy, but the thing thing they did in TAR 5 is one of the most infuriating things the race has ever done. I would rant about that on the "Worst TAR leg" thread later on. They can go to the major national park there. I would also want Canada to finally have a pit stop. My top two picks for cities they can do penultimate legs in are Winnipeg and Vancouver. After that they can Go to Minneapolis (Winnipeg penultimate) or Seattle (Vancouver penultimate).

                    Not sure if you're aware of this or not, but TAR Israel just visited Kyrgyzstan a few months ago and spent two legs in and around Bishkek.

                    Yes, I am aware, although I did not watch the season myself, I did read your guys' recaps and thoughts about the episodes one by one after each one aired. I would personally want Tashkent, Uzbekistan to be paired with Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. As two consecutive legs.

                    I understand. However the government of Bhutan only issues visa(s) on arrival only to citizens of India, Bangladesh and Maldives. Bhutan is a country that places a heavy importance and prioritizes its environment and is not willing to sacrifice its forestry at the cost of foreign exchange and tourism, so naturally the country is a bit hostile to tourists. However if you respect the nature around them they're pretty friendly on the inside. The Bhutanese constitution has made special arrangements on environmental laws so you need to be very careful so as to not pollute.

                    Don't put words in my mouth, you know what I mean. I'm talking about the U.S. Goverment's travel site that Peach linked above.

                    I was asking, why do you think that Djibouti and Myanmar should be more unsafe than France, Italy, Germany and the UK? Cause you said it was weird.
                    The mentioned European countries have some terrorist risk linked to them, and D & M (especially D) don't seem to have any risks attached to them.

                    That's sort of my point, is the fact that terrorist risks are making certain countries higher on the danger list than one might expect. You probably thought I meant D&M are lower than one might expect, but no.

                    I made some revisions to my wishlist and I like this better

                    1. Montevideo, Uruguay
                    2. somewhere in the Pampas, Uruguay (via bus) (SELF-DRIVE)
                    3. Santiago, Chile
                    4. Melbourne, Australia (nightlife task determining departures next morning) (Melbourne has the world's largest urban tram network, so have teams have to travel through the leg on it)
                    5. Invercargill and other areas, New Zealand (SELF-DRIVE)
                    6. areas up to Queenstown, New Zealand (SELF-DRIVE)
                    7. Kaohsiung and other areas, Taiwan (have use of train/bus at some point to get to a different area)
                    8. areas up to Taipei, Taiwan (similar to last leg) (pretty much from south to north of the island in the visit to Taiwan)
                    9. Hyderabad, India
                    10. Riga and other areas, Latvia (SELF-DRIVE)
                    11. Frankfurt/Cologne/Dusseldorf, Germany (SELF-DRIVE)
                    12. Atlanta, USA

                    Even when you look at the Goverment website, it lists Australia as having a terrorist risk...

                    Leg 3: Lhasa, Tibet, China
                    Leg 4: Tibet, China (have Leg 4 be exclusively Lhasa and then Leg 5 explore the Himalayas, maybe a sherpa task)
                    Leg 5: Goa, India (night leg)
                    Leg 6: Astana, Kazakhstan
                    Leg 7: Frankfurt, Germany
                    Leg 8: Luxembourg City, Luxembourg

                    Leg 10: Douala, Cameroon
                    Leg 11: Barcelona, Spain
                    Leg 12: Jersey Shore, New Jersey (fly to Newark)

                    BCN to EWR is direct though? (plus last season's final flight was one stop)

                    also, bc why not - TAR 31 for filming in summer 2018:

                    tl;dr

                    Show content
                    START - National Building Museum, Washington, DC
                    LEG 1 - Beijing, China
                    LEG 2 - Luoyang, China
                    LEG 3 - Punakha, Bhutan
                    LEG 4 - Mahebourg, Mauritius
                    LEG 5 - Volcanoes NP, Rwanda
                    LEG 6 - Kigali, Rwanda
                    LEG 7 - Petra NP, Jordan
                    LEG 8 - Istanbul, Turkey
                    LEG 9 - Glaciers NP, Argentina
                    LEG 10 - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
                    LEG 11 - Boston, MA


                    START - WASHINGTON, DC (wish fulfillment  :d025:)
                    LEG 1 - BEIJING, CHINA (okay hear me out: YES we've been to China 300 times but the last visit to Beijing was in TAR 14 :O definitely has to be a Switchback to the eating RB that screwed up Jenkisha  :2hearts:)
                    LEG 2 - LUOYANG, CHINA (to quote wiki "Situated on the central plain of China, Luoyang is one of the cradles of Chinese civilization, and is one of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of China." this would be less of a 'rural' leg like people tend to throw in and more of a 'traditional' vs modern leg)
                    LEG 3 - PUNAKHA, BHUTAN (I mean I put it out there so...)
                    LEG 4 - MAHEBOURG, MAURITIUS (remember that period in TAR from like TAR 10 to 16 where they visited east Africa semi regularly and it was cool even if the legs were mostly garbage? that was nice plus after getting *into* Bhutan I figured it would be best to have a somewhat 'easy' place to reach)
                    LEG 5 - VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK, RWANDA (drone shots of gorillas  :luvya:)
                    LEG 6 - KIGALI, RWANDA (urban African legs  :luvya:)
                    LEG 7 - PETRA NATIONAL PARK, JORDAN (camels  :2hearts: new Wonders of the World which have never been visited somehow?  :2hearts:)
                    LEG 8 - ISTANBUL, TURKEY (the vast majority of sources saying that Turkey isn't safe explicitly mention the southeastern border with Syria being the most problematic and that there may be demonstrations in Istanbul - some of those sites ALSO say that the potential for terrorism exists in many countries in western Europe so I'm rolling the dice :) beyond that I need a transit hub to get to-)
                    LEG 9 - EL CALAFATE, ARGENTINA (and more specifically "Glaciers National Park" <3)
                    LEG 10 - RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL (before people start coming for me YES I remember TAR 27 but this would be a) with only four teams and b) at night so there's cooking and music and samba and other tasks worthy of a penultimate leg  :woohoo:)
                    LEG 11 - BOSTON, MA (so this is explicitly in 'summer 2018' since there will be a convenient flight from GRU to BOS that arrives in midmorning, giving teams plenty of time to do tasks regarding American history  :conf: realistically this probably should've happened in tar...10? or so but whatever here we are)

                    There are direct flights on both United and Norwegian from Barcelona to Newark! Also, I'd prefer a Los Angeles starting line over a finish line, bc I personally don't see TAR going off of 30 and breaking the 18 season streak of always going to LA.

                    As for Tibet, Tibet is fine, I have no clue what you're talking about. I know people who have traveled to Tibet. You're making the Tibetans sound like savages (which btw is not cool, dude), when they're actually ridiculously nice and friendly people. Tibet has such a beautiful culture and it would be awesome for TAR to do a visit there.

                    START: Oxnard (Its getting away for starting line around LA area than Ventura County)
                    Starting line task: Teams must find a sailboat at Channel Islands Harbor for 11 marked buoys into a distinct color code in each boat. Once they found a right color on the boat, they would get a clue. Teams are provided with marked vehicles to Los Angeles International Airport to one of two Qantas flights to Melbourne (leaving 50 minutes apart).
                    LEG 1: Melbourne (flight) (I do generally Australia is way long overdue and we will visit Old Melbourne Gaol and Eureka Tower Pit Stop)
                    LEG 2: Great Ocean Road (drive) (It is time for a scenic view in South Central Victoria to see The Twelve Apostles and Loch Ard Gorge; teams would have to drive from Melbourne CBD to Cape Otway Lighthouse at Apollo Bay)
                    LEG 3: Osaka and Nara (flight) (The first half of the leg to focus in Nanba district and travel to Nara for the remainder of the leg to do ninja techniques)
                    LEG 4: Vientiane (flight) (It will be the first TAR in the country of Laos, Patuxai is one of notable landmarks in the city)
                    LEG 5: Siem Reap (flight) (Revisiting the old wonders in the city and Angkor Wat would have a pendant match into a correct Buddhist monk)
                    LEG 6: Johannesburg Metropolitan Area (flight, then drive) (Just like Zimbabwe 1 in the last season, it is going to be taken in rural outside Joburg like taking rappel down the caves at Sterkfontein Caves and looking gem stones in RB)
                    LEG 7: Pretoria (train) (Urban African legs; take a Gautrain from Johannesburg Park Station to Pretoria Station; Apartheid-era tasks)
                    LEG 8: Stockholm (flight) (Vikings task like searching rune stones and riding Viking boats)
                    LEG 9: Riga (ferry) (Another unvisited nation to complete the Baltic country list and visiting Soviet-era bunkers)
                    LEG 10: Barcelona (flight) (Within a majority of overused Western European countries such as France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland; its cultural and amidst places like Parc Guell and Sagrada Familia)
                    LEG 11: Bogota (flight) (Tasks between Fernando Botero and coffee bean tasks outside the city; the penultimate leg in South America could be worthy)
                    LEG 12: Minneapolis (flight) (This is the right spot for the summer and will get a flight from BOG to MSP via MIA or IAH departs on midnight and that arrives in the morning; teams would have to rappel down 4 stories inside Mall of America and some tasks in neighboring Saint Paul like the State Capitol and Memory Task in Minnetonka Orchards)

                    PIT STOPS
                    LEG 1: Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, Melbourne
                    LEG 2: Loch Ard Gorge, Port Campbell
                    LEG 3: Nara Deer Park, Nara
                    LEG 4: Pha That Luang, Vientiane
                    LEG 5: Pre Rup Temple, Siem Reap

                    LEG 11: Bogota Botanical Garden, Bogota
                    LEG 12: Longfellow House, Minneapolis (finish line)

                    MAJOR CHANGES
                    Johannesburg and Pretoria legs have replaced both Cape Town legs due to the ongoing water crisis in that city.

                    I'm procrastinating on this paper that I need to write for my Korean history class, so here's a route I came up with!

                    Starting Line: Rancho Los Alamitos, Long Beach, California
                    Leg 1: Raratonga, Cook Islands
                    Leg 2: Christchurch, New Zealand (I'd love to see a leg in Christchurch, especially around Mount Cavendish. I went there in December and it was beautiful)
                    Leg 3: Lhasa, Tibet, China
                    Leg 4: Tibet, China (have Leg 4 be exclusively Lhasa and then Leg 5 explore the Himalayas, maybe a sherpa task)
                    Leg 5: Goa, India (night leg)
                    Leg 6: Astana, Kazakhstan
                    Leg 7: Frankfurt, Germany
                    Leg 8: Luxembourg City, Luxembourg
                    Leg 9: Yaoundé, Cameroon
                    Leg 10: Douala, Cameroon
                    Leg 11: Barcelona, Spain
                    Leg 12: Jersey Shore, New Jersey (fly to Newark)
                    NO NO NO Tibet is in xibei in china witch is  north west in english and you have lots of tribes and if you say something wrong like for example pig zhu they have the right to kill you so I think the china legs could be Harbin? or Xian if you want xibei area cause there arn't as many tribes and its much better plus the communication is better Harbin is a much better choice

                    I know people who live in Tibet. No offense but NONE of this happens there?

                    YES. The people are peaceful and they don't particularly like to involve themselves in warfare. I mean the place also holds religious significance (Potala Palace) so I don't really see them reserving the right to kill.

                    I feel like Minneapolis would be the perfect end city for a race with a motif of books given all the used book stores that are in the city.

                    Finish line would obviously be here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longfellow_House)  :)x

                    Nepal. I think it's so unique in it's own way. It's not exactly South Central Asian but it's not exactly Southeast Asian either. It's its own thing and it's such a beautiful country. I think Laos is similar to Cambodia and Thailand, and while Laos is beautiful and all, a Nepal leg would be more unique and special I feel.

                    And Claude, I don't agree with Legs 2,6 and 7.

                    It would suck if they have two legs in the same state... They did it with Season 18...

                    Cape Town is in water crisis. They need rain fast. I just don't see that city being visited for at least a few years...

                    I do think Nepal is coming, but just not yet. I see CBS grouping Nepal with the likes of India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka in that it won't do more than one of those countries in a given season. Of the last ten seasons, only once has India been visited, and also Bangladesh and Sri Lanka once each. The last time time India was visited was season 27, so it's overdue for a visit again. Bangladesh is also overdue; Bangladesh appeared for its second time four seasons after the first time it appeared, and they have yet to go outside of Dhaka, so there's a chance next season could go there. Either way, I don't think Nepal will be happening just yet, sadly. I hope they prove me wrong though.

                    Laos I could see happening very soon. Of the past ten seasons, 27 was the only season to not visit Southeast Asia. It's unlikely they will do Vietnam or Thailand again so soon. I'd like to say the same about Indonesia, but then again, of the last ten seasons, 4 featured visits to Indonesia, so it's a big possibility next season will return. Malaysia hasn't been done since 24, so it's almost time for a visit there. Singapore they might do as a beginning leg, especially now that there is direct service between LAX and SIN. So that just leaves three Southeast Asian countries, Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos. As much as I would LOVE to see a visit Myanmar, due to the Rohingya situation, I don't see that happening right now. Cambodia, honestly, having gone there, doesn't have much. All of y'all want Siem Reap, but the only things to do there really are Angkor Wat and Pub Street, and seeing as Angkor Wat's already been done, that leaves pub street and I doubt they'll make a leg out of that. Maybe they'll visit Sihanoukville, but I don't see that happening. So that leaves Laos, which is untouched and was almost visited anyways back in 19. You have Luang Prabang, Vientiane, Vang Vieng — so much to choose from.

                    We shall see. Maybe they'll skip Southeast Asia completely next season.

                    4 seasons since Japan, 5 since Philippines...could be.

                    One thing I found interesting is the past couple of seasons have been Europe-heavy:

                    - TAR 30: 5/12 legs in Europe + 1 in Tangier like 20 miles away
                    - TAR 29: 4/12 legs in Europe (techincally 4.5)

                    so I'm leaning toward less Europe, whether it's to include Oceania / South America / Africa in some capacity or else loading up on Asia legs. I think the only country to exclude is Bahrain because lol. I *would* say no China but three of the past four seasons have had penultimate legs in the Pearl River Delta so clearly the well hasn't been run dry there. Perhaps that random partnership with the Taiwan tourism board will bear fruit somehow? (flight to TPE + train to Taichung would be a pretty good opening leg  :2hearts:)

                    China and Taiwan are definitely speak the same language with the same culture.

                    I have a good feeling they're going back to Japan soon too. I thought it was gonna happen this season and was shocked when they went to Hong Kong twice in four seasons. Japan is coming.

                    The real question is where will they go?

                    The last time TAR went in a West direction was 4 seasons ago, and it was direct to Japan. I find it unlikely that if TAR does a Westward direction in 31 that they will go straight to Japan again. If they do Japan, it'll likely be after an Oceania leg, Singapore leg (if the premiere leg is a Singapore leg) or Taiwan. My hope is that TAR will move away from Osaka and Tokyo. Kyoto is one of my favorite cities in the world! They could do so many cultural tasks there. I would love a visit to Okinawa Island! If they want to go to a major airport. If they do an Eastward direction, they could have the penultimate in Nagoya and then fly to Detroit, which I'd love to see.

                    If you were given a choice between Laos and Nepal which would you choose and why.
                    This is going to be interesting (or so I hope.)

                    I would like to see Nepal, because we can have a Pit Stop overlooking Mount Everest.
                    I would like Nepal but not near Mount Everest I want it at holi fastival or maybe a holi festival in india or mauritius anyways TAR should have the holi legs back

                    I've always thought an island-hopping season would be a rush of fun (and adrenaline)!

                    Teams would be picked up in Bayliner boats on the St. Marys mainland
                    START: Dungeness Ruins in St. Marys, Georgia
                    Starting line task: Navigate speedboats to Fort Clinch State Park in Florida and get to one of 11 muddied jeeps (sponsored by "Acme" :duno:) each with a distinct 3-digit padlock code. To unlock a jeep, teams have to wash the car by hand to uncover the three numbers. After getting into their vehicles, they had to drive to Jacksonville Int'l Airport to reserve seats, first come first serve, on one of two Delta Air flights to Aruba (both connecting thru Atlanta, leaving an hour apart).
                    Leg 1 (United States -> Aruba, The Netherlands) | Florida to Oranjestad
                    Pit Stop: California Lighthouse in Noord
                    Leg 2 (Aruba, The Netherlands -> Cape Verde) | flight to Praia via Amsterdam-Schiphol, mid-leg charter to the island of Sal
                    Pit Stop: Salinas in Pedra de Lume (near salt evaporation pond Roadblock)
                    Leg 3 (Cape Verde -> Spain) | flight to Ibiza, Old Town, electronica rave lighting & sail replacement in water Detour
                    Pit Stop: Mirador del Rey Jaume
                    Leg 4 (Spain) | ferry to Palma de Mallorca, self-driving through the island, Majorica pearl jewelry & Mallorcan windmill Detour
                    Pit Stop: Mercado Municipal in Inca
                    Leg 5 (Spain -> Denmark) | flight to Copenhagen
                    Pit Stop: Fredensborg Palace - Skipperhuset
                    Leg 6 (Denmark -> Mauritius) | flight to Plaine Magnien | dodo bird archaeology & Saint Aubin Rum Plantation Detour
                    Pit Stop: Chateau Bel Ombre (TAR10 Switchback)
                    Leg 7 (Mauritius -> Singapore) | flight to Singapore | northern side of Singapore
                    Pit Stop: Bukit Timah Nature Reserve - Singapore Quarry
                    Leg 8 (Singapore -> Indonesia) | flight to Semarang | Ambarawa/Salatiga region
                    Pit Stop: Gedong Songo
                    Leg 9 (Indonesia) | train to Jakarta, taxi toward rural areas
                    Pit Stop: Baduy Peoples Villages (after Detour in area)

                    St Mary's would be a beautiful start! Mystical place.

                    Also teams could then drive to Orlando instead where International flights are available.

                    See my post about the number 4 on the coincidences thread to hear about what I'm talking about. If they go to China again (I know it's been a thousand times already), but I would really love to see teams get confused on this. They have to go to a tower and have to go to the 4th floor to get their next clue. Little do teams know they have to go to the 5th floor instead, because the number 4 is considered unlucky in places like China, and is usually skipped in elevators.

                    EDIT: Talk about even more coincidences, I just made the 4000th post on this thread. What is happening right now. Am I lucky or something.

                    You'd be unlucky in China though

                    Andorra is on a 3rd level of safety so I highly doubt it would visit by the teams. There are two reasons:
                    (1) There's a war between Catalan and Spain.
                    (2) It is mountainous like Bosnia so self-driving is a bit difficult.

                    Angola is never happening. It is ridiculously hard to get a visa for Americans, also Luanda is a tremendously expensive city thanks to inflation. I think I read something about a watermelon costing $100

                    Nicaragua = 2
                    Guyana = 2
                    Belize = 2
                    Guatemala = 3
                    El Salvador = 3

                    I highly doubt these ^ would be visited. Everything else are a 1, so they're good to go!
                    Jamaica was visited in season 7. You missed out on some pretty great moments if you haven't watched them. :) Uchenna & Joyce's cash comeback, the limbo task, and "Martha Stewart, look out".

                    My bad! I forgot. I fixed it.

                    Angola is never happening. It is ridiculously hard to get a visa for Americans, also Luanda is a tremendously expensive city thanks to inflation. I think I read something about a watermelon costing $100
                    But in seychelles everything is so expensive I think i herad something about 8 euros for some bannaas and  2 euros for 1 banna (ignore my spelling)

                    In the Seychelles, they use rupees, not euros. 1 US dollar is equal to 13.80 Seychellois rupee. Seychellois rupees (Paper) are 10, 25, 50, 100, and 500. What might be seen as about 100 rupees in the Seychelles, might be really cheap. But if you look at something costing 100 dollars in the USA, might be very expensive. Please start doing more research, before I and other people start to correct you. Also stop trying to prove us wrong when we actually do hard work researching and making changes to our posts. You should also start proofreading your posts as well. Don't mean this in a negative way and start accepting criticism.

                    Regarding the Seychelles, if I'm remembering accurately production partnered with the country's tourist board AND that leg had the forced 7-up promotion, meaning cost may have been less of an issue in that leg.

                    More importantly, what would they do in Angola? Not to be combative but I'm curious; wiki doesn't really provide anything unique that would be worth featuring over a different destination (*coughs*Senegal, Rwanda*coughs*).

                    A presidential order from February provides for four African countries (Botswana, Mauritius, Seychelles and Zimbabwe) and one Asian country (Singapore) to be exempt from tourist visas and 61 countries to benefit from a procedure to simplify the process of granting a tourist visa.

                    Algeria, Cabo Verde (Cape Verde), Madagascar, Malawi, Morocco, Lesotho, Sao Tome and Principe, Swaziland and Zambia are countries that have benefited from simplification processes and in Europe, in addition to the 28 countries that make up the European Union, Northern Ireland, Iceland, Monaco, Norway, United Kingdom, Russia, Switzerland and Vatican City are included in the presidential order.

                    Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Cuba, United States, Uruguay and Venezuela are the American countries covered by the visa simplification process and in Asia the order specifies China, South Korea, the United Arab Emirates, India, Indonesia, Israel and Japan, with Australia, New Zealand and Timor-Leste (East Timor) covered in Oceania.

                    I think Angola should be safe nonetheless...

                    EDIT: I use wikitravel as a source (I'm pretty sure it's a reliable source of info) of background verification and...

                    In general, you shouldn't travel within Angola without the assistance of qualified personnel. However, if you follow some basic rules, travelling in Angola isn't dangerous. First of all, travelling after dark and alone is never a good idea. If possible, join with several cars of the same make and model because of the possible need for spare parts. Carry a satellite telephone in the case of a breakdown or other emergency. Be aware, that while Iridium satellite phones have global coverage, Thuraya satellite phones have coverage in most of Angola, but may not have coverage in the southern parts of the country.

                    Avoid using your camera in front of police (dressed in blue uniforms). Photography will result, at best, in a very heavy fine, but could also have more dire consequences.

                    NEVER step beyond the red and white HALO Trust posts. These denote mine fields.

                    Due to the high rate of HIV in the country, all forms of prostitution are illegal, and punishments are severe.



                    Yeah... the race will DEFINITELY pass on Angola.

                    Here are the stats
                    Gabon: 1, So they can go here
                    Cote D'Ivoire: 2, Maybe, if they avoid certain areas.
                    Cabo Verde: 1, So yes
                    Liberia: 1, So yes

                    I'm sure the following countries that should visit are:

                    > Australia & New Zealand - would love to see both. Why not have the starting point from Hawaii then get to New Zealand for Leg 1 and Australia for Legs 2 and 3.

                    > Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Bangladesh or another new Asian Country - I'm sure they'll be visiting Asia again. range from Legs 4 to 6. a new country must be either Laos, Myanmar, Nepal, Israel, Kyrgyzstan, Jordan, or Uzbekistan.

                    > South Africa - a visit to South Africa is a must. Legs 7 and 8.

                    Legs 9 to 11 has two options.

                    TWO OPTIONS:
                    If Europe:
                    > Sweden, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Hungary, Romania, Ireland, Germany or a new country - I'm sure these are the ones that should visit by the Amazing Race. New country include Slovenia, Slovakia, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Luxembourg, Moldova and or Latvia.

                    If South America and Central America:
                    > Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Ecuador, Uruguay, Costa Rica, and The Carribean countries - What if Africa to South America to Central America then back to USA in Minneapolis, Minnesota or St. Louis, Missouri? I'd love to see that!

                    Yes I think all of the countries should get a visit except maybe India I wish they could start at Fiji instead of new Zealand though Israel would be nice but I would love them to go to Turkmenistan it's so beautiful there I would rather Europe than south America and I think 1 leg in South Africa (Joshanberg or that ostrich town ) and 1 leg in Mauritius or reunion island

                    L1 : New York, USA --> Valencia, Spain --> Ibiza, Spain [U-TURN, KOR]
                    L2 : Ibiza, Spain --> Gdansk, Poland --> Malbork, Poland [ELIM]


                    Interesting combination you have there on Leg 1. The issues I have with this is: with a U-TURN so early in the season, most racers will not even consider using it; also having a U-TURN and KOR on Leg 1 means that the field could be spread out alot (unless you bunching them at the airport going to Poland).

                    Yes, I thought about it.
                    I made the following changes - L1 [U-TURN] , L6 [W-TURN] , L9 [U-TURN]

                    Split the teams - 3 flights from New York to Valencia, then have some tasks in Valencia and then sign up for ships to Ibiza. Remember sign ups on premiere legs [TAR 25, *cough* michael and scott *cough* lisa and michelle *cough*] ?? Hoping for a similar reaction.

                    And even if they don't use the u-turn then there are 2 u-turns more on the race. So not that big of a deal.

                    Countries that are yet to be visit by teams:

                    Central & South America: Nicaragua, Guyana, Costa Rica, Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, Caribbean Islands, French Guiana, The Bahamas

                    Africa: Ivory Coast, Gabon, Cape Verde, Comoros, Liberia, Angola, Lesotho, Rwanda

                    Asia: Brunei, Maldives, Myanmar, Nepal, Israel, Jordan, Laos, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Cyprus

                    Europe: Belarus, Latvia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Bulgaria

                    Oceania: American Samoa, Samoa, Fiji, Palau, Marshall Islands

                    Nicaragua = 2
                    Guyana = 2
                    Belize = 2
                    Guatemala = 3
                    El Salvador = 3
                    Caribbean Islands :
                    Cuba = 3
                    Dominican Republic = 2
                    Haiti = 3 
                    Honduras = 3
                    Jamaica = 2
                    Trinidad and Tobago = 2
                    Turks and Caicos = 2 
                    The Bahamas = 2
                    Ivory Coast = 2
                    Maldives = 2
                    Nepal = 2
                    Israel = 2
                    Jordan = 2
                    Saudi Arabia = 2

                    I highly doubt these ^ would be visited. Everything else are a 1, so they're good to go!
                    Jamaica was visited in season 7. You missed out on some pretty great moments if you haven't watched them. :) Uchenna & Joyce's cash comeback, the limbo task, and "Martha Stewart, look out".

                    Laos was visited in TAR Vietnam 4 and Kyrgyzstan was visited in this season of HaMerotz LaMillion :-)
                    Costa Rica was visited in TAR 8:Family Edition and TAR Latin-America.
                    Dominican Republic and Guatemala has been visited in TAR Latin-America.
                    Cuba has been visited in TAR Australia 2, TAR Canada 4 and HaMerotz LaMillion 3

                    They also haven't visited San Marino, Andorra, Albania, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo and Moldova in Europe.

                    Andorra is on a 3rd level of safety so I highly doubt it would visit by the teams. There are two reasons:
                    (1) There's a war between Catalan and Spain.
                    (2) It is mountainous like Bosnia so self-driving is a bit difficult.

                    You can visit Andorra and/or Barcelona, because there is no war between Spain and Catalonia, just a conflict. It's not on the level, like Syria. And it's relatively stable there now. But Andorra is safe.

                    And saying it's mountainous like Bosnia, and therefore difficult to self-drive there....Well, they did self drive to the Andes Mountains in season 7. But perhaps, a whole leg in Andorra might be a overkill.

                    I would love to see Moldova however its the poorest country in europe and stuff to do arent that much so could make a 1st leg good however the task might be catching rats or so

                    Yes, Moldova is the poorest country in Europe, but saying that catching rats is the most likely task to do in Moldova because it's a poor country, is really disrespectful. You can have some tasks around the wineries in the country, cultural/religion or something else. Just use your imagination. I mean, if they can do a whole season of just traveling around Philippines, Vietnam or Ecuador, I am sure someone will manage to make one or two full legs in Moldova, without making teams catching rats.

                    fwiw the seaplanes on TAR 25 were a short distance (~5 miles or so), whereas a ferry from Valencia to Ibiza is about 300 km and, assuming you're using the scheduled ones, only offered a couple times per day. If you're keen on the leg 1 KOR, have teams fly to Ibiza directly then take the ferry to Valencia for the start of the next leg.

                    also re: Andorra and kind of related to the above; I always pictured a set of legs similar in structure to TAR 18, where there was a leg in France or Spain, then a leg that had teams drive through Andorra for one task, then finish in Spain or France.

                    Well I was thinking of maybe doing the same thing they did in Asia 5 were they have to buy stuff for the families I was thinking of catching rat cause I was doing a extreme weather project on Moldova and came across a photo with people catching rats

                    L6 - Ljubljana, Slovenia --> Finland
                    L7 - Finland --> Oman

                    L11 - (Cebu,) Philippines --> Canada
                    L12 - Canada --> Denver, USA

                    Thoughts:
                    Really like it. You have one leg on Puerto Princesa and one leg on Canary Islands, so it might be similar but they are culturally VERY DIVERSE.
                    I doubt they'd go to Vancouver, BC because Canada has its own show of TAR where they mostly cover Canada... but if they do want TARUS
                    can take inspiration from some Canada legs. It is possible but highly unlikely.
                    We last visited Oman in s17, and a country in the gulf in s30. I'd say this is an opportunity to visit Qatar (level 1 safety?) but I'm sure you must have something else planned in mind.
                    We visited Italy in s29. If we had to visit a country in Western Europe they'd go to Germany (last visited in s26). But please, visit Luxembourg and you'll only have Vatican City and Andorra left on Western Europe!!!

                    Yes it's good but not a NYC start  Yes Taiwan but not Taipei we seen enough of that maybe the place I mentioned with the sheep farm or Tainan or taizhong would be good Finland is ok for me however I would prefer you do Lapland instead 1 leg in Italy is fine the other leg could be used in Albania

                    How about mine? the new post that has Puerto Rico, Venezuela, French Guiana, Gabon, Liberia, Bosnia, India, New Zealand and Fiji?
                    Yes yes it really good map for tar however i think you should rate do austallia than new zealand gabon is perfect fiji is nice year yourslef is nice

                    I had it start in Helsinki because usually the race likes to fly to direct to the first destination unless it's in South America. I like the idea of backtracking a bit, it kind of gives me TAR 6 and TAR 17 vibes, and TAR 6 had one of the best maps in my opinion. Agree about
                    Italy, but I think a visit to Pisa is overdue and we need a real leg in Florence because 12 didn't really visit Florence, but maybe it can go to Rimini instead and visit San Marino! I'd also love a visit to the Cinque Terre region. I wanted Oman because I really would love a switchback to the sand over task in TAR 9, because I think that would result in a GREAT switchback; with the exception of the hay bale switchback, most switchbacks have been lackluster. I don't see them visiting Qatar because they said in this interview (https://nypost.com/2017/05/31/amazing-race-crew-reveal-their-craziest-behind-the-scenes-tales/) that they wouldn't because of the government being disorganized. And I actually agree about Canada, most people on here really want a leg there but I'm okay with not having one. Trade that out for a leg in Korea or Fiji and I'd be happy (although that would kill the ending in Denver).

                    I recommend teams going to new places like Porto, Azores Island, or Algarve should be a good start.

                    I would much rather Arctic than Antarctica like i know they both don't have stuff to do but like i would much rather the teams look at polar bears than penguins plus Arctic can pair up with legs in Greenland northern Europe or Canada Antarctica can mostly do Argentina  or australlia don't get me wrong I would love australlia but I would rather do northen europe

                    Thoughts?

                    This is a great route, but switch Almaty, Kazakhstan to Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. Then change the Hawaii final leg to Seattle and you have my approval.

                    I could see Israel being visited by TARUS in the future. Australia 1 had two legs there, and I noticed a few tasks in TAR30 and HaMerotz 6 that similar enough to make me suspect production crews shared ideas (keep in mind HL6 was filmed first), not to mention Krista from 27 was the pitstop greeter on the New York leg. It could happen soon.

                    Teams should fly to Melbourne, take a taxi to Flinders Street Station, either take a train to Richmond or Jolimont station and then find their next clue in Bay 13!  :lol: :funny:

                    The next time the race visits Ukraine, they have gotta visit Chernobyl (http://www.chernobyl-tour.com/english/?action_skin_change=yes&skin_name=eng&gclid=CjwKCAjwlIvXBRBjEiwATWAQIo1kBJraTiQo-_XROhV97YCli3yZZkJJMk7fTRN7qCufbi0kMv91jRoC8WwQAvD_BwE).
                    I just visited Ukraine the previous week and a lot of my co-workers were talking about Chernobyl. Due to personal commitments I couldn't visit but I looked up the brochures online. Seriously, I think it'd be so cool to visit it.

                    As much as I would like to see this and it being a historical lesson worth being shown and told, there is still radiation counts from the nuclear disaster. People who tour the exclusion zone are told not to touch, sit, or even accidentally fall on anything there. Considering a lot of teams on a race aren't particularly careful, I don't know how they will be able to get clues or do any tasks there without heavily risking radioactive decay. ???

                    The next time the race visits Ukraine, they have gotta visit Chernobyl (http://www.chernobyl-tour.com/english/?action_skin_change=yes&skin_name=eng&gclid=CjwKCAjwlIvXBRBjEiwATWAQIo1kBJraTiQo-_XROhV97YCli3yZZkJJMk7fTRN7qCufbi0kMv91jRoC8WwQAvD_BwE).
                    I just visited Ukraine the previous week and a lot of my co-workers were talking about Chernobyl. Due to personal commitments I couldn't visit but I looked up the brochures online. Seriously, I think it'd be so cool to visit it.
                    As much as I would like to see this and it being a historical lesson worth being shown and told, there is still radiation counts from the nuclear disaster. People who tour the exclusion zone are told not to touch, sit, or even accidentally fall on anything there. Considering a lot of teams on a race aren't particularly careful, I don't know how they will be able to get clues or do any tasks there without heavily risking radioactive decay. ???
                    True but Ukraine has to have a second visit

                    I'd have to say we wait on Ukraine getting a second visit. First of all, Phil was detained on the only visit there. Secondly, they are in a war with Russia. If we want a former Soviet Union country to be visited, we can have Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. All of the "-stan" countries I've mentioned have grown safe over the years.

                    Yes with Latvia. We need a new location on TAR. Hopefully they can add Bulgaria, Montenegro for new countries and a revisit to Hungary as well since TAR has a trend of visiting underused European countries in the last few seasons with Belgium, Czech Republic, Greece, Iceland,

                    Might be a very small chance, but I would love to see a finish line occur in the Upper Midwest (Minneapolis/St Paul, Milwaukee or anywhere in the Cheese State, and the Dakotas). A very underappreciated region!

                    Might be logistics, but I am waiting for a Minneapolis leg to happen soon!

                    Lots of traditional Americana possibilities: Mickey's Diner, the Stone Arch Bridge & St. Anthony Falls Lock and Dam (on the Mississippi River!), the historic flour mill park and museum, Spoonbridge & Cherry, Dinkytown, and big-retail industry headquarters like Target and General Mills. Scandinavian community deeply rooted in this city like curling and cuisine to furnishings and handicrafts. The Minnesota State Fair can be a great influence for a task in the Twin Cities (*ahem*butter sculptures*ahem*). A possible sound recognizing task utilizing Orfield Labs' anechoic chamber and the Sidewalk Harp, and a Bob Dylan reference can be thrown in just for pop culture sake. And the Soap Factory can be a nice "clean slate" to host an epic memory task.

                    Yes, I would love a finish in the twin-cities of Minneapolis/St Paul! Out of all the regions in the US, I think the Upper Midwest is underrated as well. Like I said before I would the final clue to be "Hurry up and finish the race with a cherry on top." Leading teams to figure out it's the Spoonbridge and Cherry at the Walker Art Center. I'm tired of seeing California all the time, have more variety in cities in the US. Denver, Phoenix and Seattle are due for a finale now. I was expecting Seattle to be the finish in TAR 30, as it would have been a backwards TAR 10. I also think the south needs more representation on TAR. I would love a double-length Tennessee leg with the first half being in Nashville and the second half being in Memphis. I would also like if they finished in South Dakota. Have teams visit the geographic center of the US, and visit Crazy Horse, and have Mount Rushmore be the finish line.

                    To add to my post above, I'm surprised Texas hasn't been used much as it is the second biggest state by area. Let's go to Houston and San Antonio. Also, I want the "Little Big cities" to be visited like Boise, Billings, Fargo, Spokane, Santa Fe, and Little Rock. Out of all the states that I want to be the 25th state visited, it will be Minnesota.

                    I think the reason why Houston is left out is because public transportation is kind of supremely crappy there. I've traveled there and stayed for a few weeks. Looking and calling for a taxi from many intercity places was like a task in itself and I ended up renting a car after a week. I did not know taxis weren't as common around Houston as they are in other major cities. Even the international airport.

                    You're probably right, and a visit to the San Antonio River walk and The Alamo would be much more better places to visit.

                    Quote
                    Latvian Lat (0.62 LVL to 1 USD)

                    The lat is a stable currency and has not seen much fluctuation in the past two years. The currency had a spread of 4 cents year-on-year, reaffirming Latvia's style of monetary management. The lat has gained strength after a decade of transitioning out of an economic crisis that occurred in the 1990s. Latvia has adopted the euro since entering the European Union, but the lat is still in circulation and trades on forex markets.

                    Oh, you were talking about the Lat.
                    Yes, it was a strong currency, but since 2014, Latvia has been using Euros, and I don't think the Lat is as relevant anymore as that article makes it out to be. Especially as that article is 2 years old.

                    I am still thinking that they will visit countries (and places) were Survivor has been filmed.

                    This includes places like Fiji, Cambodia, Kenya, Samoa, Thailand and maybe even, Australia

                    Dream team casting:

                    M/F
                    *Brother & sister duo (20s) with one teammate who has accomplished a lot and the other accomplishes at nitpicking life's adversities
                    *Couple consisting of a palm reader/psychic and a "mortal" (20s)
                    *Couple of childhood lovebirds (20s) who are always good communicators and know many languages, though weaker in physical tasks
                    *Couple of determined plus-size models (20-30)
                    *Couple of motorcycle rebels (30-40) who are not afraid to get a little contentious if they don't get their way, but have their soft spots
                    *Latin-American friends (30s) who take utmost pride in family, heritage, travel, and food; competitive edge through the roof

                    M/M
                    *Best friends (30-50) who both work in dangerous and high-pressure jobs and are very detail-oriented
                    *Uncle & nephew (60s & 30s) duo who are wise, charming to people, and funny guys in general; perhaps a C or D-list celeb?

                    F/F
                    *Alpha/tiger moms (40-60) who take criticism to heart and vie to be the best
                    *Lingerie football teammates (20s) who are fierce competitive divas on and off the field
                    *Sorority sisters (20s) from an East Coast university who will do what it takes to win

                    Plus lingerie football - TB to Marie  :2hearts: Some of the fiercest and most competitive people I've seen. Definitely would love that.

                    Let's say that the Big Brother Edition of 31st season should work out with this full destination travels:

                    (4 Continents, 11 Countries)

                    Leg 1: USA to Taiwan
                    Leg 2: Taiwan to New Zealand
                    Leg 3: New Zealand to Australia
                    Leg 4: Australia
                    Leg 5: Australia to Laos
                    Leg 6: Laos to Myanmar
                    Leg 7: Myanmar to Israel
                    Leg 8: Israel to Latvia
                    Leg 9: Latvia to Bulgaria
                    Leg 10: Bulgaria to Slovenia
                    Leg 11: Slovenia to Italy
                    Leg 12: Italy to USA

                    Feel like going to Asia then Oceania and back to Asia and then Asia to Europe and finally back to USA.

                    Because Australia is way long overdue and has not visited since Unfinished Business. It needs to be the first country to visit for TAR 31 perhaps its winter away in the Southern Hemisphere. It would be the first American TAR to visit Oceania in Southern Hemisphere winter.

                    To be honest, I would be happy if they visited it this season as opposed to last, when we all speculated they would.
                    As cliche as it may sound, I trust that TAR could pull off a nod to Survivor seasons airing there. And it would be cool for the contestants, I guess.

                    Please see my post above, TAR hasn't traversed the western route since TAR 26 and it is been awaiting for so long that Australia is the first country to visit after teams leave Los Angeles.

                    And visiting Fiji doesn't eliminate the possibility of visiting Australia.
                    Fiji is closer to the west coast as compared to Australia, so Teams can fly from LAX to Suva or Nadi, spend 1 or 2 legs in Fiji, following which they can visit Australia.

                    Unpopular opinion: I would appreciate a visit to India again!

                    Since season 7, we've yet to see teams interact in western India. I would love to see the action take place in luxurious Udaipur, the metropolis of Ahmedabad, or revisit Jodhpur just for the sake of "we have a bad elephant" again.

                    Unpopular opinion to your unpopular opinion:
                    Visit the north-eastern states instead. They've already gotten the shorter end of the stick from the Indian government, face racism and discrimination on a daily basis and have little to no development in their areas because of corruption.

                    I do agree north-east India is a little bit similar to south-east asia, but north-east India is filled with beautiful sights and amazing spots for adventure activities. They're also brimming with culture, and plus all international versions of TAR seem to visit Rajasthan and other Western Indian states instead.
                    And besides, if you want a bad elephant switchback, travel to southern states. I'm really unsure as to why they showed the elephant task in Rajasthan when you don't even find elephants there. Camels are more common there. Southern states revere the elephant more (As seen in TAR 20 Leg 10).

                    And visiting Fiji doesn't eliminate the possibility of visiting Australia.
                    Fiji is closer to the west coast as compared to Australia, so Teams can fly from LAX to Suva or Nadi, spend 1 or 2 legs in Fiji, following which they can visit Australia.

                    Let's be honest Fiji would be ruled out for TAR 31 as it is being reserved for Survivor seasons till 2020. Australia is better for the starting destination in Oceania region.

                    Unpopular opinion: I would appreciate a visit to India again!

                    Since season 7, we've yet to see teams interact in western India. I would love to see the action take place in luxurious Udaipur, the metropolis of Ahmedabad, or revisit Jodhpur just for the sake of "we have a bad elephant" again.

                    Unpopular opinion to your unpopular opinion:
                    Visit the north-eastern states instead. They've already gotten the shorter end of the stick from the Indian government, face racism and discrimination on a daily basis and have little to no development in their areas because of corruption.

                    I do agree north-east India is a little bit similar to south-east asia, but north-east India is filled with beautiful sights and amazing spots for adventure activities. They're also brimming with culture, and plus all international versions of TAR seem to visit Rajasthan and other Western Indian states instead.
                    And besides, if you want a bad elephant switchback, travel to southern states. I'm really unsure as to why they showed the elephant task in Rajasthan when you don't even find elephants there. Camels are more common there. Southern states revere the elephant more (As seen in TAR 20 Leg 10).
                    Popular opinion. :tup: I remember the camel feeding Roadblock in Jaipur in season 14, but that's still a very interesting fact to me. All in all, India still has a mix of different sceneries, dialects and cultures that deserve to be explored and not shunned despite TAR visiting the country many times in the past. Probably my favorite over-visited country by TAR. And I do agree north-east India needs a visit - Gangtok is a beautiful town and kind of reminds me of a mini-sized La Paz, Bolivia. Plus, it's accessible to the original Darjeeling estates!

                    Yes!! Darjeeling is a beautiful hamlet. You'll find many towns like Darjeeling along Assam, lined with tea plantations and sites reminiscent of a British colonization. Logistics is a concern as there is only one major international airport (Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport in Guwahati) for the 7 states in the north east. Digboi in Assam has a crude oil refinery and they should visit that too. Still, a myriad of cultures to be explored. Look up the Hornbill festival and you'll be amazed !

                    Fingers crossed for Amritsar  :)x

                    Seconded! The Golden Temple is a HUGE complex. And it's beautiful. And it remains open late till the night (I just visited in December) and opens early in the morning. Having a night leg and overnight rest within the temple complex is an idea waiting to happen. The Punjab government has transformed the entire complex, so you'll find many shops (including a McDonald's, sigh) within a 100 metres of the Temple. It's extremely well maintained and the people are very friendly, so can't wait for TAR to visit them  :2hearts:
                    I've had a leg in a fanfic. Based on the Golden Temple, teams can spend the night half of the leg in Amritsar and then cross the Indo-Pakistani Border (The Wagah Border, as far as I can remember tourists can cross the border but local citizens can't) to Lahore, another cultural hub. I can't believe they've visited India so many times but skimmed over Pakistan.

                    Pakistan is still too dangerous too visit. I mean, their own cricket team won't play in their own country!

                    I think that War needs to end, before TAR can visit an amazing country!

                    I really hope TAR31 visits over-used countries, such as China, India (and hey why not, SYDNEY. Throw in the Sunshine and Cairns again, why don't ya? :res:)!

                    This season DOES NOT deserve a good route, such as Israel, Latvia, Myanmar and Laos!

                    Got ya! It's just a joke! None of the new countries would ever be visited by the Big Brother. so I'm hoping for a full returning countries like:

                    > Australia - Go for Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Cairns or Adelaide as it is long overdue.
                    > New Zealand - Auckland, of course.
                    > Taiwan - Taipei should be visited again.
                    > India - 2 new locations for me,  Amritsar and Bangalore.
                    > Cambodia - Phnom Penh, maybe visited again?
                    > Malaysia - Penang, Malaysia for sure.
                    > Austria - this time go for Salzburg.
                    > Poland - a new location, maybe Pozńan?
                    > Italy - Bologna and Pisa as new locations or a return to Florence?
                    >  Spain - Bilbao, please!
                    > Switzerland - Basel, please!
                    > Germany - Frankfurt or a new location: Cologne, Black Forest, Bremen, or Stuttgart?
                    > South Africa and Egypt, for sure, will be visited again.

                    What do you think guys?

                    The problem is the flights between the daily flight between Los Angeles to Nadi occurs only one flight. In every TAR season, the producers arranged the pre-determined two or three flights to the first city.

                    You should add these countries are stated for TAR 31:

                    • Australia - Melbourne is most likely and it is a way long overdue since TAR 23-24.
                    • Japan - Osaka should be visited again, as well either Kyoto or Nara.
                    • South Africa - Johannesburg will be seen to visit again. The race should travel to Pretoria, please.
                    • Sweden - Stockholm revisit please, mostly in Stockholm city area.
                    • Spain - Barcelona will have a full leg after last visited the area in TAR 10 that was a partial leg.
                    • Colombia - Bogota for sure and the Colombian capital will finally be visited in the original.

                    New countries

                    • Myanmar  - Yangon for sure and has many temples and pagodas.
                    • Latvia - Riga it is! Unvisited Baltic nation will make a complete list of Baltic countries to be visited in TAR (Lithuania in TAR 12 and Estonia in TAR 15).

                    Oh I forgot some other countries. yours is perfect for a new season. and ges, Sweden and Spain sure makes a good combo for hot & cold visits. If Latvia gets a visit, then the baltic states arr now complete.

                    Qantas has a non-stop flight between Los Angeles to Melbourne occurs nightly, only one flight as well. At least there are connections to Melbourne via Sydney or Brisbane, also in Qantas.

                    Here are the flights shown from Los Angeles to Melbourne (via Sydney or Brisbane) other than the non-stop flight as which is a lot cheaper:

                    I'll imagine Phil to be on the LAX to Melbourne direct...

                    First six teams would most likely go LAX-Sydney-Melbourne

                    Second six teams would most likely go LAX-Brisbane-Melbourne

                    Brisbane Airport sucks! It's small and there's not much to do there!

                    Pakistan is just filled with a bunch of people who are unsatisfied with the governance. The only hostility they might show, is against Indians.
                    It is not the safest, albeit I think they would allow American citizens.

                    India is definitely overused and should include for TAR 31. The "speculative" route for TAR 31 would be USA -> Australia -> Japan/Taiwan -> Myanmar -> India -> South Africa -> Sweden -> Latvia -> Spain -> Colombia -> USA.

                    Also adding again:
                    Leg 2: With special guest Rick Steves. And including the Night Watchman on Leg 2 giving the clues when tasks (Detour or Roadblock) are done.

                    What I was trying to say on the Leg 1 Roadblock (Doctor Who theme ("Who can crack the Dalek code?")) was based on the other Roadblocks from other international versions of TAR (except USA): "Getting past three (or more than 3 I think) rows guarded by guards (TARAsia S4 Leg 10, TARAus S2 Leg 11) or Surfboarders (TARPh S2, Leg 4)". With the sound effect "EXTERMINATE!!!" if 3 strikes (I think?).

                    Also, visit Canary Islands, Ibiza, Madrid, Basque Country or north-west of Spain!

                    I would also love a task in Port Aventura, Tarragona, near where I life, and the best themed park of Europe.

                    Decided to make another cast type list:

                    M/F
                    *Couple married by arrangement (early 30s)
                    *Exes (early 20s) who are nothing like Tim & Marie, but are pestering each other and somehow make their relationship worse and for the entire planet to see...
                    *Fear Factor team from back-then who are looking forward to traveling and keeping up with their competitive spirits
                    *Hippie grandmother & normal grandson (70s & late 20s)

                    M/M
                    *Divorcés (late 20s), met at a bar trying to hook up with women and became good friends from that
                    *Dating barre instructors (late 20s), partners in business and home, they are local fitness stars who train and teach one of the toughest muscle awakening exercises for men
                    *Friends (early 20s), fans of the show who have never traveled out of their home state; are teachers in some way, and aren't too concerned about body image, fun-loving buddies

                    F/F
                    *Best friends (late 20s); crazy fans of the show who have never flown out of the country before, one pushes boundaries from appearance such as wearing hair highlights to her edgy personality while the other is a new married mom who is raising a toddler, trying to settle and sometimes overcompensates to her own advantage
                    *HOA "homeowner association" member ladies (40s), very attentive and detail-oriented, they still know how to bring enthusiasm and positive vibes like second nature dealing with assorted negative complaints, family dynamics, improvements to the neighborhood, and their own steady jobs outside of the association
                    *Horse stable hands (20s-early 30s) from the American heartland; lovable women who foster and train thoroughbreds for steeplechase and horseback rides
                    *Jamaican-American reggae duo (early 20s) who work side jobs, extensively travel and play at dive bars and theater venues across the country!

                    Inspired by Rachel, I thought even I'd put in a cast type list!

                    FF:
                    --> Meter Maids. Most of the meter maids in my community are very uncouth and sassy, so I'd like to see how meter maids stand up in a race around the world.
                    --> Waitresses ! To this date the service staff labor wages in the USA baffles me. Do servers and waitresses get paid ONLY in tips? When I was in Ann Arbor a waitress told me she got paid $3 an hour. Like what the heck?? how do they even survive? I genuinely feel that if waitresses win they would make a smart use of the money.
                    --> A lesbian couple. In 5 seasons of TAR, Canada has had the same number of lesbian couples as 30 seasons of TAR US. Need I say more?

                    MM:
                    --> Baby Sitters. I mean I'm even fine with MF or FF Baby Sitters, but I want to see strong, impassioned and determined baby sitters who'll break the stigma behind men not being baby sitters (*ahem* ROSS) and simultaneously perform good in tasks where everybody else struggle.
                    --> Alpha male brothers who always seem to butt heads and cause unnecessary drama. I want these two to be the mandatory season villains so that I can rejoice when they get eliminated (or in the case of Gino and Jesse, cry when they win.)
                    --> Strippers  :2hearts: :2hearts: I mean I don't demand strippers, but like Jaymes and James were so fun, so I would really like to see one team who revives my memories of them. (A hunky and virile stripper, and then a klutzy but adorable stripper, perhaps  :lol:)
                    --> A team of gay businessmen/business partners who always seem to be making tongue-in-cheek comments, puns, throwing shade, etc. I mean, I wouldn't mind these two getting out early, but I would love to see a catty team race !

                    MF:
                    --> A team of a baby daddy with his fiancee. I want this to be the all out, ridiculous and crazy team who are always fighting and accusing each other of "you impregnated me and stood me up you idiot!" or "it's not my fault that you stopped taking the pill!". Kinda sorta like Vanessa and Rachel.
                    --> Any recruited team from some low-budget reality TV show. It seems that CBS is doing everything it wants to to reel in viewers, so bring in a team that is reality TV Gold and willing to cause controversy. Kinda sorta like Brenchel.
                    Show content

                    and then the recruit and the baby daddy and his fiancee fight, just like Brenchel and Vanessa & Ralph !

                    --> A team of reunited siblings, preferably biracial twins (it's a shot in the dark, but biracial twins do exist!  :funny:). They should also have like wacky jobs and somehow they perform good in most legs, even though most people underestimate them.
                    --> A mother son team, consisting of the most timid son in the world and the most vivacious mother in the world.

                    I love this route!!!! If I was a racer I'd be glad to race here. UK, Spain, Germany, Japan, South Africa  :luvya:
                    and a Florida start. Hopefully, Miami!!

                    Although, I'd swap out India for Mauritius or Maldives. Replace Thailand & 1 Philippines Legs with 2 Australian legs (Sydney is a must and the other a toss on Melbourne, Gold Coast, Cairns). Swap 2nd Philippines Leg with any New Zealand destination because NZ is such an awesome country. We need a Winter leg there.

                    No no. Victoria cannot have two legs. There is not much to do on the Great Ocean Road, apart from what TAR Australia 3 finale did. The second leg, would be MUCH better spent in Tasmania.

                    Yes, why not have the first Australian leg be in Melbourne, then on the second Australian leg, let teams take a ferry from Melbourne to the island state of Tasmania, they would later go do stuff in Launceston, and then fly Hobart and have the pit stop there, and a couple of tasks.

                    You seriously need to relax with your caps and realise that the world doesn't just comprise Australia.
                    I wish TAR would visit my country, but there are honestly better new places to visit, so I don't get all pissed off.

                    Sorry, I'm going to fact check some of these. Sydney has only been visited two times. Adelaide has been visited in TAR 2. Also what is wrong with Cairns.

                    While that would be interesting in the right context (have them do "Help" and force them to get locals to acknowledge them <3) I'd rather they go to...any other city in England (I mean...Manchester? Newcastle?) or alternatively, go to County Kent and have a task(s) about The Canterbury Tales.

                    Leg 10: Argentina ( Buenos Aires )
                    Leg 11: Argentina ( San Carlos de Bariloche )
                    Leg 12: USA

                    Not even I agree for Melbourne to have two legs!  :funny:

                    That second leg would be better spent in either Tasmania, Gold Coast, Brisbane or Adelaide.

                    Thanks Bourkie. Oh sure with the 2nd Leg not in Melbourne again.

                    I would like to let those BB visit Papua New Guinea and have a task to deliver their meat offerings to cannibals. I'm sorry that i feel cruel to them.

                    For now, I added Cairns for the second Aussie leg after Melbourne that has a spectacular wildlife in the tropical Far North. Bourkie will be proud that Melbourne won't get another (2nd) leg there.

                    Cut and paste from my now-removed but edited post at TAR 31 pre-race speculation thread:

                    Quote
                    Could the route now be LA-Fiji-Australia-Papua New Guinea?

                    This could mean we might have a Brisbane or Gold Coast leg this year! This part of Australia is BEATUIFUL!

                    Fiji is definitely more impossible as of now, as in which Survivor is taking place. As well as the rumored Papua New Guinea. Definitely the route could be LA-Australia (Melbourne-Cairns)-Japan (Osaka)-Taiwan (Taipei)-Malaysia (Penang)-South Africa (Johannesburg-Pretoria).

                    Sorry but that would probably be my least favorite route ever just based on the countries. :cmaslol

                    I wanted this route to be paired with those horrible Big Brother-themed season. That's why i hate them.

                    no shade but like... this is such a stupid opinion. If you are pre-determined on hating the cast of a season before it is even confirmed then why would you wish for it to have a bad list of countries; On the contrary you should hope for newer countries to be visited so that the season will be fun for you to watch. Believe me, even I think the BB/Survivor gimmick behind TAR 31 is stupid, but I wanna go into the season with a positive outlook and hope for new countries and amazing tasks, not a boring list of overvisited countries with generic tasks.

                    As somebody who has traveled through Colombia, I can't see Bogota being a location. Out of all of the major cities in Colombia, it is by far the least safest one to visit. Medellin and Santa Marta area are far more likely to be visited. . .plus more scenic and more intriguing history.

                    TAR 31: hoo boy edition

                    START - Los Angeles, CA (duh)

                    LEG 2 - to Ainaro, East Timor
                    LEG 3 - to Dili, East Timor
                    LEG 4 - to Bhairahawa, Nepal
                    LEG 5 - to Delhi, India
                    LEG 6 - to Aggtelek National Park, Slovakia

                    LEG 10 - to Bogota, Colombia
                    LEG 11 - to Boston, MA

                    Otherwise known as "what happens if you make TAR 13 slightly differently?"

                    I LOVE THIS ROUTE. Just replace Delhi with another leg and you've created like a perfect edition of the race.

                    Also I didn't get the relation between Bogota and Molecular gastronomy??

                    - re: Delhi; the travel between Nepal to India is meant to be done over land and, of the destinations that weren't ridiculously long by train, it was the one which was technically the least recent to host a leg (vs Varanasi or Kolkata) plus I wanted another urban leg, otherwise it's just Bogota and Budapest
                    - re: molecular gastronomy; this (https://america.cgtn.com/2017/04/25/bogota-restaurants-using-tradition-molecular-gastronomy-make-top-list) and this (https://thebogotapost.com/2017/10/11/el-cielo-gastronomic-rollercoaster-ride/) came to mind - TAR US has had more tenuous links for tasks

                    also thanks!

                    Bourkie, you mean filming would take place between third week of June to second week of July?

                    In my truly opinion I posted at the other thread filming to start by June 15 (Friday) to July 8 (Sunday), a total of 24 day race.

                    I disagree with Honolulu start but I rather have a SoCal start in Oxnard (go to previous posts) and would involve a first task to search a sailboat in the Channel Islands Harbor. Honolulu seems very unlikely. The 31st race should get a final leg in Miami and would take a final challenge at Hard Rock Stadium to order the name of the places in the Pit Stop during the race. The finish line would probably take place at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park in Fort Lauderdale, a city north of Miami. The race haven't had a Florida visit since TAR 18.

                    I agree, but TAR will most likely not visit Ukraine any time soon, the last time they visited Ukraine Phil got detained. Ukraine is also at a 2, so I think they might not want to risk going there.

                    There are people (the weird ones) who think Jamaica is a South America territory simply because they don't acknowledge Central America and don't consider it as part of the North, so then S7 would be the only "eastward"-traveling one by technicality even though it's a looped route.

                    Also, I've been wishing for a holiday-themed leg for a while now :cheer: :jam: :reindeer :HNY: :2hearts: Here is my grievance list:

                    En route
                    Valentine's Day - Paris, France (Wall of Love, kissing booth Roadblock! :lol:, Pont des Arts love locks, The Louvre!, Moulin Rouge)
                    Saint Patrick's Day - Dublin, Ireland (all the good luck - Fast Forward, clover and rabbit's foot charms - and bad luck - U-Turn and unavoidable penalties - harnessed in one leg!)
                    Passover - Jerusalem, Israel (Kosher locusts-gefilte fish, Shabbat task, kashering a kitchen, dradle task, Seder run-through Fast Forward)
                    Dia de Los Muertos - Oaxaca, Mexico (Calaveras, intricate perforated paper pattern, barbacoa and grinding mezcal, Monte Alban Pyramids)
                    Christmas - Rovaniemi, Finland (Santa Claus Village Detour, reindeer farm, Lampivaara Amethyst Mine, Christmas chalets, Aurora Boreale maybe)

                    Finales
                    Mardi Gras - New Orleans (Mardi Gras World, voodoo shop, Hand Grenade cocktail, so many beads, masquerade, King's Cake)

                    Also, I've been wishing for a holiday-themed leg for a while now :cheer: :jam: :reindeer :HNY: :2hearts: Here is my grievance list:

                    En route
                    Valentine's Day - Paris, France (Wall of Love, kissing booth Roadblock! :lol:, Pont des Arts love locks, The Louvre!, Moulin Rouge)
                    Saint Patrick's Day - Dublin, Ireland (all the good luck - Fast Forward, clover and rabbit's foot charms - and bad luck - U-Turn and unavoidable penalties - harnessed in one leg!)
                    Passover - Jerusalem, Israel (Kosher locusts-gefilte fish, Shabbat task, kashering a kitchen, dradle task, Seder run-through Fast Forward)
                    Dia de Los Muertos - Oaxaca, Mexico (Calaveras, intricate perforated paper pattern, barbacoa and grinding mezcal, Monte Alban Pyramids)
                    Christmas - Rovaniemi, Finland (Santa Claus Village Detour, reindeer farm, Lampivaara Amethyst Mine, Christmas chalets, Aurora Boreale maybe)

                    Finales
                    Mardi Gras - New Orleans (Mardi Gras World, voodoo shop, Hand Grenade cocktail, so many beads, masquerade, King's Cake)
                    Thanksgiving - Boston (Paul Revere House-Independence Trail, Savenor's Market for turducken task, Plimoth Plantation, gridiron football agility/strength drills @ Gillette Stadium)

                    These all sound so delightful!! I second all of these ideas!
                    It was so pissing off when they took a raincheck for Paris in s26 (ahem, a dating oriented season), and then visited it in s27. *sigh*

                    Putting this here for those users sent here from the TAR 31 subsection-

                    As the title says, what do you want to see in future editions of TAR?   :jam:

                    - Per georgiapeach, route maps and other large images should not be posted in-thread; a link to the image file should be fine, as well as this site (http://www.travellerspoint.com/).
                    - It should go without saying but this is a spoiler-free thread. If you're posting something that specifically refers to a currently-airing or currently-filming (be it the American version or any from another country) season hide it under spoiler tags:

                    [spoiler*]blahblahblah[/spoiler*]

                    but without the *. :)

                    Happy theorizing!  :conf:

                    Here's my wishlist of countries that I have in mind:

                    * Havana, Cuba - Nice place here. Teams will drive vintage cars here.
                    * Bilbao, Spain - If possible, it should be paired with Madrid.
                    * Split, Hvar, and Zagreb ( Croatia ) - These are locations that has yet to visit. Love to see them head to the capital city of Croatia.
                    * Santorini, Rhodes, and Mykonos ( Greece ) - Such beautiful places that teams can visit it is a must.
                    * Azores, Algarve Region, Porto (  Portugal ) - one of these places give a breathtaking view for teams to see.
                    * Sofia and Burgas, Bulgaria - two of the new country's places are good.
                    * Finland - yes, we need a full leg in this snowy country.
                    * France - Northern region of France again like Lille, Normandy Region, Lyon, etc.
                    * Germany - Frankfurt and Wiesbaden, need to say more?
                    * and the rest of the European Countries like Ireland, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Luxembourg, etc.

                    Leg-2 Toronto, Canada & Miami, United States to Havana, Cuba

                    First American visit, second Canadian but would work because Cuba in TARC4 was an epic fail. Our first Head-to-Head.

                    Classic Rome leg. Food task and hopefully a visit INSIDE the Colosseum.

                    Leg-5 Rome to Turin, Italy

                    Winter themed leg with skiing task.

                    Leg-6 Turin, Italy to Nairobi, Kenya

                    An actual leg in kenya....

                    Leg-7 Nairobi, Kenya to Chennai, India

                    Indian Beach themed leg with a shrine pitstop

                    Leg-8 Chennai, India to Manila, Philippines

                    Ik you all want a GOOD Manila leg.

                    Leg-9 Manila to Baguio, Philippines

                    Pig or Jig dt right after a bus ride into the countryside

                    Leg-10 Baguio, Philippines to Taipei, Taiwan

                    Visit to Taipei 101 with a futuristic task (light show????)

                    Leg-11 Taipei, Taiwan to Vancouver, Canada

                    A nice leg with great scenery. Possible visits to movie sets

                    Leg-12 Vancouver, Canada to Seattle, United States

                    That self drive we've all been waiting for!

                    To break it down.... in one season we see:

                    I'm bored and I don't know how to make good routes, but I'll try one. xD

                    ROUTE:

                    Leg 1: New Mexico, USA to La Ceiba, Honduras.
                    New city to start the race. Once in Honduras, they can go to the Cayos Cochinos and do some challenges on the islands with jet ski.

                    Leg 2: La Ceiba, Honduras to Madrid, Spain.
                    Early leg on my country with the first time in the capital.

                    Leg 3: Madrid, Spain to Bilbao, Spain.
                    Double leg in my country of course, now going to the north. Tapas RB.

                    Leg 4: Bilbao, Spain to Andorra La Vella, Andorra.
                    There's no airport that connect Bilbao with Andorra, so they should go driving, or going with train + bus (which I would prefer because it's a long way to go and some teams could get lost and eliminated so easly). Mountains and ice leg.

                    Leg 5: Andorra La Vella, Andorra to Vilnius, Lithuania.
                    New country to visit.

                    Leg 6: Vilnius, Lithuania to Windhowk, Namibia.
                    Visit to the Sossusvlei desert with some quad biking.

                    Leg 7: Windhowk, Namibia to Perth, Australia.
                    Going again to Australia since forever. I don't get that we are stuck in Fiji (Oceania) in Survivor but we can't get in any Oceania country in TAR. lol This would a city leg.

                    Leg 8: Perth, Australia to Adelaida, Australia.
                    City + visit to the Kangaroo Island.

                    Leg 9: Adelaida, Australia to Vientiane, Laos.
                    New country and visit the Mekong River, temples, etc.

                    Leg 10: Vientiane, Laos to Luang Prabang, Laos.
                    Rural leg in Laos.

                    Leg 11: Luan Prabang, Laos to Alberta, Canada.
                    Going to the Banff Natural Park. Awesome views. Tótem RB.

                    Leg 12: Alberta, Canada to Washington DC.
                    How's that TAR never had a finish line in it's own capital? Visit to the White House. Final memory RB.

                    New countries: Honduras, Andorra, Lithuania and Laos.
                    New Starting Line and Finish Line, and new cities.

                    No shade but it was actually quite sad of a leg. Not sad as in like my favorite team got eliminated, they just let down Lithuanian culture and all the tasks was so boring.

                    Great route tbh! To make it more realistic I'd switch laos and australia's order although I love africa-->oceania! So both work! This is a season id definitely watch! A good balance of new underused and common countries! AWESOME

                    My attempt at a route. I don't know how feasible the travel is between legs, but it is all northern hemisphere so it would fit with the budget that TAR gets nowadays.

                    01. United States – South Korea (Gyeongju)
                    02. South Korea – Philippines
                    03. Philippines
                    04. Philippines – Qatar (Doha)
                    05. Qatar – Uzbekistan
                    06. Uzbekistan – Estonia
                    07. Estonia – Latvia (either self-drive or train to cross the border)
                    08. Latvia – Tunisia
                    09. Tunisia
                    10. Tunisia – United Kingdom (Manchester/Liverpool)
                    11. United Kingdom – Portugal (Ponta Delgada/Azores)
                    12. Portugal – United States (Boston)

                    Qatar could be replaced with another middle eastern country with a big city like UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, or Jordan.
                    Tunisia could be replaced with another African country. I also considered Senegal, Ghana, Ivory Coast, and Algeria.
                    United Kingdom could be replaced by Ireland, or could be removed for an 11-leg race.

                    Feel free to suggest changes and improvements to this route!

                    I'm bored and I don't know how to make good routes, but I'll try one. xD

                    ROUTE:

                    Leg 1: New Mexico, USA to La Ceiba, Honduras.
                    New city to start the race. Once in Honduras, they can go to the Cayos Cochinos and do some challenges on the islands with jet ski.

                    Leg 2: La Ceiba, Honduras to Madrid, Spain.
                    Early leg on my country with the first time in the capital.

                    Leg 4: Bilbao, Spain to Andorra La Vella, Andorra.
                    There's no airport that connect Bilbao with Andorra, so they should go driving, or going with train + bus (which I would prefer because it's a long way to go and some teams could get lost and eliminated so easly). Mountains and ice leg.

                    Leg 5: Andorra La Vella, Andorra to Vilnius, Lithuania.
                    New country to visit.

                    Leg 6: Vilnius, Lithuania to Windhowk, Namibia.
                    Visit to the Sossusvlei desert with some quad biking.

                    Leg 7: Windhowk, Namibia to Perth, Australia.
                    Going again to Australia since forever. I don't get that we are stuck in Fiji (Oceania) in Survivor but we can't get in any Oceania country in TAR. lol This would a city leg.

                    Leg 8: Perth, Australia to Adelaida, Australia.
                    City + visit to the Kangaroo Island.

                    Leg 9: Adelaida, Australia to Vientiane, Laos.
                    New country and visit the Mekong River, temples, etc.

                    Leg 10: Vientiane, Laos to Luang Prabang, Laos.
                    Rural leg in Laos.

                    Leg 11: Luan Prabang, Laos to Alberta, Canada.
                    Going to the Banff Natural Park. Awesome views. Tótem RB.

                    Leg 12: Alberta, Canada to Washington DC.
                    How's that TAR never had a finish line in it's own capital? Visit to the White House. Final memory RB.

                    New countries: Honduras, Andorra, Lithuania and Laos.
                    New Starting Line and Finish Line, and new cities.

                    Great route tbh! To make it more realistic I'd switch laos and australia's order although I love africa-->oceania! So both work! This is a season id definitely watch! A good balance of new underused and common countries! AWESOME

                    Thank you!! :2hearts:

                    And oh, my mistake for counting Lithuania as a new country. :groan:

                    My attempt at a route. I don't know how feasible the travel is between legs, but it is all northern hemisphere so it would fit with the budget that TAR gets nowadays.

                    01. United States – South Korea (Gyeongju)
                    02. South Korea – Philippines
                    03. Philippines
                    04. Philippines – Qatar (Doha)
                    05. Qatar – Uzbekistan
                    06. Uzbekistan – Estonia
                    07. Estonia – Latvia (either self-drive or train to cross the border)
                    08. Latvia – Tunisia
                    09. Tunisia
                    10. Tunisia – United Kingdom (Manchester/Liverpool)
                    11. United Kingdom – Portugal (Ponta Delgada/Azores)
                    12. Portugal – United States (Boston)

                    Qatar could be replaced with another middle eastern country with a big city like UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, or Jordan.
                    Tunisia could be replaced with another African country. I also considered Senegal, Ghana, Ivory Coast, and Algeria.
                    United Kingdom could be replaced by Ireland, or could be removed for an 11-leg race.

                    Feel free to suggest changes and improvements to this route!
                    I definitely like the US>South Korea>Philippines>Qatar start to the Race. Travel between those countries will definitely not be a problem. Lots of direct flights. And it also fulfills my wish of South Korea and the Philippines to finally appear in the first half of the Race.

                    I would like to see South Africa in place of Tunisia. I'm not sure if Tunisia is feasible these days. The rest of the route is great though.

                    That way they can go from Christchurch to Dunedin for another task and pitstop. So what do you think of my destination so far?

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles to Christchurch, New Zealand
                    Leg 2: Christchurch to Uluru, Australia
                    Leg 3: Uluru to Bontoc, Philippines
                    Leg 4: Bontoc to Laoag City, Philippines
                    Leg 5: Laoag to Amman, Jordan
                    Leg 6: Amman to Tel Aviv, Israel
                    Leg 7: Tel Aviv to Rome, Italy/The Vatican

                    I do think Jordan and Israel might deserve two legs each so it might be best to have them on different seasons.

                    Swap both Laoag and Bontoc and you will get Cebu City and Iloilo City as Legs 3 and 4. Iloilo City is the no. 1 best airport in the Philippines and no. 12 in Asia.

                    I'm partial to the North since my family is from there.  :-[
                    The Philippine Legs from TAR5 and TAR25 have either been more tropical (Palawan) or urban (Manila/Cavite) with a little bit of rural with the carabaos/ox of course.

                    So I've been hoping for TAR to do a more cultural Leg, which they haven't done yet in the Philippines. Bontoc/Mountain Province and any of the cordilleras can definitely fulfill that. A nice Detour or Road Block involving traditional native dances. Plus more rural, farm-like tasks. And I paired a Bontoc Leg with Laoag so they can travel over land and just because the Bangui windmills, Paoay church and sand dunes would be beautiful to feature.

                    The Laoag Leg can be swapped out for Baguio or Vigan (TARA5-style Leg) too.

                    To help decide between Laoag, Vigan and Bontoc, here are some of the possible tasks on each hypothetical leg  :-[

                    Laoag, Ilocos Norte
                    (I forgot I had already made up a whole leg here (https://dryedmangoez.com/2014/11/14/the-amazing-race-26-legs-1-2-san-francisco-%E2%86%92-albay-%E2%86%92-ilocos-norte/) lol)
                    -Paoay Sand Dunes – Recycling the basket task from other TARs
                    -Something at Bangui Windmills
                    -Detour: Working with bagoong/bugguong (fermented fish or shrimp) or a typical market shopping task

                    Vigan, Ilocos Sur
                    -Longganisa Task (Making or Eating... or both)
                    -Something with a horse and calesa or cart along the cobblestone roads. Recycle the TARAu/TARPH1 task of transporting pots on a cart?

                    Bontoc, Mountain Province
                    -Traditional banga/jar dance
                    -Something with the rice terraces
                    -Make the 1 hour+ journey to neighboring Sagada and the hanging coffins?

                    Also, any location in the Cordillera region would be good. Very cultural Legs possible. Kalinga province might be easier access with direct flight from Manila to Tuguegarao. Then an hour drive to Kalinga's capital of Tabuk.

                    Any of the locations
                    -Pig or Jig (FINALLY) or just an Active Route Info or Road Block catching a couple of pigs.
                    -Also Pig or Palayok Detour. Instead of Jig, a modified and more difficult version of Pukpok Palayok (pinata with a pot)

                    I looked at Richmond a few times, but it is kind of vanilla for a race route. Nothing too interesting that stands out from over there when you have more scenic areas like James River region's Newport News/Norfolk/Virginia Beach, and Charlottesville/Shenandoah/the Blue Ridge Mountains a moderate drive away too.

                    Hello all! I got a little bored at work a couple days ago so I decided to run some numbers and think of a couple ideas. This only includes seasons 1-30, and is not affected with who has been chosen for 31!

                    My first idea is Amazing Race: Redemption Season
                    I think every racer who finished 2nd, and sorted them by AVG finish. Here is how the season looked!

                    NOTE: I did not include teams that have already raced twice since they've had their shot at redemption! People who were left out were Rob & Amber, Jet & Cord, & Dustin & Kandice

                    Eric & Jeremy (S9) (I debated not including them because Eric did win all stars, but his original TEAM did not win)
                    Justin & Diana (S27)
                    Kris & John (S6)
                    Art & JJ (S20)
                    Frank & Margaruta (S1)
                    Tara & Will (S2)
                    Colin & Christie (S5)
                    Misti & Jim (S25)
                    Ken & Tina (S13)
                    Rob & Kimberly (S10)
                    Tara & Joey (S29)

                    Looks like it would be an incredible season to me!


                    My second idea is Amazing Race: Champions. This takes every first place winner and is sorted by their AVG placement. I know the true winners don't always win, but if you can't win the final leg then you aren't a champion! In my mind, this would be the final season of Amazing Race, and they would make this the hardest season of all time. All clues in the language of the country they are in. Mostly driving themselves, minimal money, super hard tasks!

                    NOTE this one I did include one All star team (Dave & Conner) since they eliminated themselves in their first race (and did very well in it).
                    Also I left out Season 8: Family Edition, since there were 4 members, and they were also racing against teams with 6 year olds on it so it does not seem comparable in my mind.

                    Rachel & Dave (S20)
                    Meghan & Cheyene (S15)
                    Dave & Conner (S24)
                    Tammy & Victor (S14)
                    Bj & Tyler (S9)
                    Bates & Anathony (S22)
                    Rob & Brennan (S1)
                    Nick & Starr (S13)
                    Tyler & James (S10)
                    Zach & Flo (S3)
                    Ernie & Cindy (S19)



                    Let me know what you all think!

                    Dustin & Kandice (TAR10)

                    And a few other teams, but I know that they either aren't dating/married anymore or would probably not do the Race again. :(

                    There could also be penalties for an unsuccessful use of the U-Turn, or a reward (like an Express Pass) for surviving a U-Turn.

                    If TAR really were ever to do a Celebrity Edition, Julie Chen should be a lock.  :tup:

                    From her interview in Parade this weekend (https://parade.com/683959/walterscott/julie-chen-dishes-on-big-brother-the-talk-and-her-tv-dream-job/):
                    Quote
                    Is there a reality show that you would participate in?

                    My sister is dying for us to do Amazing Race together. I would do it because we’re very compatible. We’ve traveled the world and we’re adventurous eaters because of our Chinese culture—unless it comes to bugs.

                    What about a TAR: Rivals Edition?

                    Bring teams from various seasons that either had major beef with each other, or seemed to have healthy competition between them?

                    Perfect example: Vanck/Ashton and Matt/Redmond (S29)

                    Here's my list of teams:
                    Charla/Mirna (S5)
                    Marshall/Lance (S5)
                    Lyn/Karlyn (S10)
                    Dustin/Kandice (S10)
                    Brent/Caite (S16)
                    Carol/Brandy (S16)
                    James/Jaymes (S21)
                    Abby/Ryan (S21)
                    Matt/Redmond (S29)
                    Vanck/Ashton (S29)
                    Alex/Conor (S30)
                    Henry/Evan (S30)

                    I tried to limit 3/4peats, and former winners- though Jason/Amy vs. Tim/Marie and Cody/Jessica vs. Lucas/Brittany would be amazing to see too.

                    Who would you like to see in a format like this?

                    I personally would not. I don't want to watch drama for the sake of drama. I want to watch a good race, so put good racers out there, and if drama happens then even better.

                    Wishlist for season 32:

                    4 MM teams / 4 FF teams / 3 MF teams (This needs to happen finally, lol.)

                    Everyday people only!!! No more reality stars, social media celebs and professional athletes!!!

                    Cast people who are interesting, not people who sound interesting. I want casting to focus on teams relationships not the fact if they are connected by their occupation/hobby.

                    Maximum 1 leg for Western Europe and 1 leg for Southeast Asia!!! There are also other parts of Europe and Asia, explore them finally!!! Eastern Europe, Balcanic states or Middle Asia should be visitied. 

                    No more U-turns before Detour.

                    Ideal route (limited by realness of my expectaions, lol.) :

                    1. Spain
                    2. Romania
                    3. Bulgaria
                    4. Kenya

                    I always love European legs, but tbh a route through Africa, Oceania, Asia, and South America (+ maybe a North American country) would be so interesting and refreshing.

                    I wasn't aware there was three more followups of TAR Canada that had aired, to be honest. :-[ (I'd only gotten up to season 3.)
                    But definitely would be the northernmost in the original version.

                    I remember long ago reading some made-up TAR results pages and one of them had in it a "Triple U-Turn". Do you think this could eventually happen for real, or is it too out there?

                    I wouldn't mind it happening, but I don't know if it's just me... but does anyone else have a very stale taste, almost sick and tired mood, for the U-Turn in general now? I feel like it's time to introduce a new slowdown twist to keep things afresh especially since this thing has been around since season 12 (a decade plus one, wow!) and I would love to see more creativity going on with the race structure. I wouldn't mind them getting rid of the Speed Bump altogether either (yet another season 12 origin), and compressing a main task that hasn't been inflicted with the last place penalty to keep things interesting and flowing. :(

                    I've seen some really juicy penalty ideas typed here and maybe it's time to dig into that and put it to the test. :)

                    I feel the same way. Both the U-Turn and Speed Bump should have been in only seasons 12-18 in my opinion. Then in Season 19 introduce something new. Both have gotten so stale I would love to see Marked For Elimination return. I thought that was the best Non-Elimination penalty in US TAR to date. If a new Non-Elimination Penalty would be introduced I would love it to be TAR Norge's Handicap. I have never seen TAR Norge, but i think this is the best Penalty to date in all versions. Take for example the mud bricks from TAR 5's India leg. Teams would be required to make 20 bricks, but the Handicapped team would have to make 30 bricks. This could be an advantage or disadvantage if the team can be good at a task. I would like the Yield and U-Turn to cp-exist in the US Version of the race, so tense won't know what's coming.

                    I think the Handicap is so interesting, and I'm not just saying that because most things are better than the Speed Bump's current state of show-and-done. I would love, love, love to see something like that making a debut in the U.S. version so we could have more potential task drama against trailing and teams falling behind simultaneously rather than having penalized teams go to their own private task to finish something so minor and forgettable (Bill & Cathi's unkink a rope SB was the beginning of the decline for me).

                    As for the U-Turn issue, I'm not sure if I'd even be thrilled for the Yield returning if a coexisting U-Turn outweighs the benefits/detriments of the Yield. Plus, we've only seen one team, The Danis, "majorly", in the most broadest sense, affected after turning over the hourglass. I'd like something brand new at this point. No rehash. :yes:

                    Well well, very interesting thoughts here. I'm not sure I can agree, honestly.

                    *The U-Turn I'm very split about. I like the idea and sometimes it really works well, but sometimes it really DOESN'T work well. Honestly, I think the U-Turn can stay but there has to be one major change. The U-Turn should only be applied to two tasks that don't take very long to complete. Quick Detour tasks. Otherwise a team will have to complete two 30-minute tasks, spending an hour at the Detour, then they have no hope of surviving. I think it's fine, but it does need brain power behind it.

                    *The Yield should NOT come back. I'm sorry but I hate the Yield. It's boring, it's not fun to watch, and all we get from it is 10 minutes of a team standing around bitching at the team that targeted them. The Israeli version of the Race overuses the Yield to the point of nausea, and I'm totally sick of it.

                    *Mixing the Yield and U-Turn also doesn't work in my opinion, because one is so much stronger than the other.

                    *I like the Speed Bump and I hope it never goes away. Sorry, but I really do like it. Admittedly, I wouldn't mind if the Speed Bump took on some elements of the Handicap. Maybe not on every single Speed Bump, but here and there it would be neat for a team's Speed Bump to just be the normal task but harder (IE, Tanner & Josh's Speed Bump, but not so insanely overpowered)

                    I definitely do agree that the U-Turns are hit or miss. Sometimes it does bring its surprises (Twinnies' blockade method, Joe & Heidi's beautiful downfall), but for me, I feel like it is overly used to the point it got tiring for me after 10 years of seeing it still being promoted as a "twist" when it's become a race resident. I just wish to see a fresh breath of air into the route structure especially now that we're stuck in a new age of this stunt casting trend.

                    As for the Speed Bump, I think the problems I had for some of them were teams being led into a different area to do something so minuscule and irrelevant to the culture of the region. Maybe if they were more integrated to their current tasks, then perhaps that change might be something worth taking.

                    A breath of fresh air is exactly what turned the U-Turn from something good into something bad. That's where the U-Turn-before-the-Detour nonsense came from. I would love a season that went back to just having two single U-Turns in the race.

                    Also Algeria will not be visited in the foreseeable future. It’s incredibly difficult and expensive to get visas for Americans, and it’s has a travel advisory due to high risk of kidnappings.

                    I think Bratislava is due to visit. I'm visiting tomorrow  :funny:. Also i went to Dresden the other day, this city needs a proper leg or at least a half leg coupled with Berlin or Prague, it's stunning.

                    omg Watching the Philippine Legs of the current season of Pekin Express really has me hoping TARUS survives long enough for them to return and race through the Northern Philippines. Stunning views, great tasks. I think they'd be amazing TAR Legs.

                    New and improved TAR 32 Wishlist:

                    Main wish is 12 teams and 13 legs, so that's how we'll do it here (with adjustments based off 11 team/12 leg race)

                    Starting Line: The Getty Villa, Los Angeles, CA, USA

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA to Nadi, Fiji (EL- 12th place)
                    Starting Line Task involving finding Fijian flag somewhere in the Villa; 2 roadblocks- culture/dance task, needle-in-haystack task; additional RI; beach pit stop

                    Leg 2: Nadi and surrounding islands, Fiji (EL- 11th place)
                    Detour- wayfinding vs. shelter building; Roadblock- traditional hunting challenge; water based active RI; island pit stop

                    Leg 3: Nadi, Fiji to Melbourne/Port Campbell, Australia (EL- 10th place)
                    Self-driving leg; Roadblock and Route Marker in Melbourne proper; Detour on the way to Port Campbell; scenic pit stop near 12 apostles

                    Leg 4: Melbourne, Australia to Siem Reap, Cambodia (EL- 9th place/W-turn)
                    Pit start back in Melbourne; Roadblock/Detour/W-turn all in Siem Reap and surrounding towns; final active RI in Angkor Wat- puzzle task; pit stop on grounds of Angkor Wat

                    Leg 5: Siem Reap, Cambodia to Kathmandu, Nepal (NEL- 8 teams)
                    Task involving prayer flags, hectic market tasks
                     
                    Leg 6: Kathmandu and surrounding areas, Nepal (EL- 8th place)
                    Moving out towards countryside; dream would be getting teams out toward Mt. Everest, but at least getting some good Himalayan mountainsides would suffice

                    Leg 7: Kathmandu, Nepal to Amman/Petra, Jordan (EL- 7th place)
                    Arabic writing task in Amman among additional tasks, self-drive to Petra, desert-related Roadblock before searching around Petra for pit stop

                    Leg 8: Amman, Jordan to Warsaw, Poland (NEL- 6 teams)
                    Polish pronunciation task, horse-riding task, pit stop at Wilanow Palace
                     
                    Leg 9: Warsaw, Poland to Naples/Almafi, Italy (EL- 6th place)
                    Self driving leg (pick up cars in Rome); MANDATORY pizza-making task (birthplace of pizza); visit Pompeii; pit stop along Almafi coast

                    Leg 10: Naples, Italy to Kumasi, Ghana (KRL- 5 teams)
                    revisit to Ghana, but exploring a new city

                    Leg 11: Kumasi to Accra, Ghana (EL- 5th place)
                    exploring Ghanaian countryside with designated driver

                    Leg 12: Accra, Ghana to Dublin/County Cork, Ireland (EL- 4th place)
                    self driving leg starting in Dublin, travelling along southern countryside

                    Leg 13: Dublin, Ireland to Boston, USA (Finale- 3 teams)
                    Final teams visit Blarney Stone for luck in final leg before taking a bus back to Dublin; at least 1 task relating to American Revolution (Boston Tea Party/Paul Revere/Sam Adams); memory challenge as 2nd of 2 roadblocks and as final task; Finish Line at Harvard University

                    To reduce route to 12 legs with 11 teams: remove Poland leg, and make Jordan leg NEL.

                    The Amazing Race Canada S7: All-Stars Rumors

                    Leg 5: Switzerland to British Columbia
                    Leg 6: British Columbia
                    Leg 7: British Columbia to The Philippines
                    Leg 8: The Philippines
                    Leg 9: The Philippines to Ontario
                    Leg 10: Ontario to Alberta
                    Leg 11: Alberta to Saskatchewan
                    Leg 12: Saskatchewan to Manitoba

                    Returning Contestants: 12 Teams, 12 Legs, 5 M/F, 4 F/F, 3 M/M
                    S1: Jet & Dave, Holly & Brett, Jody & Cory
                    S2: Alain & Audrey, Natalie & Meghan

                    S5: Andrea & Ebonie, Adam & Andrea
                    S6: Leanne & Mar, Todd & Anna

                    The season should include The Philippines with 2 legs and 2 new European countries with 1 leg each. I saw that in Season 2 they went to Calgary and did the task of currency coins and flags. They did viewed the flag of The Philippines many times. It might be a hint for The Philippines to be visited next.

                    The Philippines would be an easy choice for TAR Canada as they can easily do the Canadian connection they like to do and talk about the large Filipino Canadian population.

                    So why not? I concur 5-continent race is definitely more common.

                    but what if the next race could've been only 4 continents or rather we have 6 continents? how sure are you that Fiji's going to be next? even if it is popular as it is, then Fiji is most unsure. To be honest, I hate clashing ideas or comparing with you guys. what I want is your compliments like "it's a good route" or whatever you can say as something good. 😒😒😒

                    Oh I forgot that there was a season with Austria & Germany together. It's okay if we can shift one of these Germany/Austria legs to Finland. Plus I can reduce Fiji & India for one leg each and have a trip to South Africa for two legs since the country has never been visited since TAR 7?

                    TAR 32 WISHLIST REVISED ED.

                    12 Teams, 12 Legs, Same Boot EL/NEL/KOR just like the one that I posted above. 👆

                    Pre-Leg:  USA
                    Leg 1: USA 🇺🇸 to Nadi, Fiji 🇫🇯
                    Leg 2: Fiji 🇫🇯 to Auckland, New Zealand 🇳🇿
                    Leg 3: New Zealand 🇳🇿 to Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺
                    Leg 4: Tasmania to Melbourne, Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺
                    Leg 5: Australia 🇦🇺 to Malé, Maldives 🇲🇻
                    Leg 6: Maldives 🇲🇻 to Chennai, India 🇮🇳
                    Leg 7: India 🇮🇳 to Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    Leg 8: Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    Leg 9: South Africa 🇿🇦 to Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮

                    Leg 12: Germany 🇩🇪 to USA 🇺🇸

                    I crossed out Slovakia & Austria, reduced India into one leg to pair up with Maldives, reduced one leg to Fiji, and added South Africa, Finland, & Hungary. That will be 5 continents now, with 10 countries.

                    Agreed on that note. I have to change and revised with TAR 32 race route (link on the post at page 175 (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1242965.html#msg1242965))

                    11 teams, 12 legs

                    It will consist of 5 F/F, 2 M/M and 4 M/F

                    Starting line: LA Suburbs, USA 🇺🇸 (Huntington Library Mansion)
                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA to Nadi, Fiji 🇫🇯
                    Leg 2: Nadi, Fiji to Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺
                    Leg 3: Melbourne, Australia to Port Campbell, Australia 🇦🇺
                    Leg 4: Port Campbell, Australia to Shanghai, China 🇨🇳
                    Leg 5: Shanghai, China to Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
                    Leg 6: Siem Reap, Cambodia to Mumbai, India 🇮🇳
                    Leg 7: Mumbai, India to Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    Leg 8: Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦
                    Leg 9: Cape Town, South Africa to Bucharest, Romania 🇹🇩
                    Leg 10: Bucharest, Romania to Granada, Spain 🇪🇸
                    Leg 11: Granada, Spain to Normandy Region, France 🇫🇷
                    Leg 12: Normandy Region, France to Miami, USA 🇺🇸

                    Finish line: Regatta Park, Miami, USA (run to the park to the finish)

                    For a side note: Miami hasn't visited in half-decade. Australia, Cambodia and Romania haven't visited as well in nearly a decade, and to South Africa that hasn't visited in ages. I replaced Germany to Romania on page 175 in my post that will have a full Bucharest leg.

                    The proposed visit in Normandy Region would include towns of Le Havre/Lillebonne (sort of local people to give times for the morning), Bayeux (RB1 tapestry to arrange the timeline of the illustrated artpiece of Norman conquest of England), Caen (visiting American war cemetery, RB2 land sailing in Omaha Beach) and Honfleur (Pit Stop at infamous Port d'Honfleur).

                    I just want a leg in the Fethiye/Oludeniz region of Turkey. Granted I have tonnes of bias as I go there often, but it's stunning. Easy Roadblock of paragliding off Babadag mountain and a Detour involving the Fethiye Fish Market. Pitstop could be on Nicolas Beach, Saklikent Gorge or Butterfly Valley. This could only work in summer though.

                    On my post above and through my other older posts, South Africa is also overdue that Cape Town has visited once before in the entire race. Maybe Cape Town want to have a proper revisit that could be hosting two legs there (in rural at nearby towns and urban in city proper).

                    Chengdu and Chongqing are such great destinations, I hope that is where they go if they go to China some time in the future, especially instead of Hong Kong or Shanghai/Beijing, etc.

                    Only half of the tasks done by TAR in Hong Kong were Culturally-relevent
                    TAR 2's leg 7 detour (Herbal tea / Wishing tree) + FF
                    TAR 2's leg 8 detour (Lion / Dragon)
                    TAR 11's FF (Film stunting)
                    TAR 17's detour (Ding Ding)
                    TAR 27's detour (Cell phone)
                    TAR 30's detour (Cantonese ordering, though that one is too easy)

                    It's sad that in production's eyes, Hong Kong is equivalent to Kungfu most of the time  :jam: (TAR 11 leg)

                    Strong opinion - Visited in every season, The United States is still underrated and severely underappreciated :funny:. I'm tired of the regular L.A. County, Miami-Dade, NYC expectations and starting/endpoints. Here's a quick emergency list of untapped southern regions for TAR to visit, organized by int'l airports access in the nation:

                    Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Int'l Airport
                    (Mountains and Terrain in Georgia and Chattanooga, Tennessee) Stone Mountain, Kennesaw Mountain Battlefield Park, Panola Mountain, Arabia Mountain, Lookout Mountain, Chattahoochee National Forest, Talladega Forest, literally any of this would impress and shock someone only familiar with the flatland of Southern U.S.

                    Louisville Int'l Airport
                    Kentucky Bourbon Trail
                    (Louisville, Kentucky) Louisville Slugger, Churchill Downs, Waverly Hills Sanatorium, Appliance Park
                    (Lexington, Kentucky "Horse Country") Kentucky Horse Park, Keeneland, independent horse stables, Fort Boonesborough

                    Nashville Int'l Airport
                    (Nashville, Tennessee) Music Row!, Marathon Village, The Parthenon (I'm not kidding), Hot chicken, Rabbit Hole VR Arcade, Jack Daniel's in Lynchburg

                    Jacksonville Int'l Airport
                    (Between Jacksonville, Florida and Savannah, Georgia) Fernandina Beach, Jekyll Island, Kingsley Plantation, carriage rides in Savannah, restored antebellum buildings, Old Fort Jackson, First Girl Scout Headquarters in USA, Fort Pulaski, Hilton Head Island
                    (St. Augustine, Florida) Beautiful Spanish colonial sites, Alligator Farm zip line, Pirate & Treasure Museum, extensive beachscape activities, river cruises/water taxis, fishing charters, Gainesville's University of Florida

                    Austin-Bergstrom Int'l Airport/San Antonio Int'l Airport
                    (Texas Hill Country) Mount Bonnell, New Braunfels, Canyon Lake, authentic Texas brisket BBQ, independent farms/nurseries/vineyards, Pedernales Falls, Hamilton Pool Preserve, Natural Bridge Caverns, Luckenbach

                    There's always unique independent places that would love for TAR to visit for promoting their brand (e.g. Gino's East franchise in Chicago in TAR6, Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland, Oregon in TAR13, Graceland Chapel in TAR15) so there's no shortage of adding those places important to the touring and local culture of each city into the mix as well.

                    I agree, I want somewhere new visited in the US, a city no one expects. As someone who likes the Family Edition, it was so refreshing seeing states like Wyoming, Montana, Alabama, and Mississippi take the spotlight. This is why I want another US only route, to give other states a chance to be featured, that don't have big enough cities to host a final leg. There are so many landmarks in the US the race hasn't been to. It would be so cool to see places like: Seattle Space Needle, Gateway Arch, The Alamo, Beale Street, Spoonbridge and Cherry be visited on the race. I also agree that I'm tired of seeing the same cities over and over again. Los Angeles once in a while is fine, but EVERY season is too much. Also I feel like some final legs don't really show us what the city has to offer.

                    Boise would be a good metropolitan area to explore for a finale - tons and tons of outdoor adventuring, Greenbelt breweries, Old Idaho Penitentiary has the potential to host a creative memory task, Freak Alley, and has a relationship with the whole Basque diaspora topic. Two highly-likely music-themed legs in a row in the same state (Tennessee) gets stale quick.

                    12 teams race

                    1st leg - mid point EL & classic EL (TAR10 style)
                    2nd to 5th leg - ELs

                    This means 6 teams eliminated by the end of 5th leg.

                    THERE IS A TWIST in 6th leg!!!

                    All 6 teams eliminated will be competing for 1 returning spot to the race in the challenge!!! The challenge will be both mental and physical and fair for everyone. Team who'll win it will return to the race imediately!!! 

                    Teams who are still in the race will be watching this challenge and each of them have to pick 1 of the eliminated teams who they think will win this challenge. The order of their bets is based on their arrival to the challenge locations from the airport. 1 team who'll correctly guess returning team will win Express Pass(or other advantage in the game)!!!

                    Challenge is over (it will take only 10 minutes of the episode) and team who won is returning. There is overnight stand right after challenge and race is continuing at the morning with all 7 teams starting at the same time.

                    Leg 6 is KOR leg because we don't want team who just returned to be eliminated again in the same episode.  :funny:

                    The race continue...



                    What do you think? I always wondered why TAR didn't try some kind of returning twist yet. Survivor did it in PI and seasons with Redemption islands and doing it also in the newest season. Big Brother is doing it every season...

                    I had this idea in my head last night. It's sort of a spin off of that time the Israeli version went to France and they were only allowed to speak in Hebrew.

                    At one point in a leg, teams have to dress up as mimes. Then, they have to travel by taxi and/or on foot to a certain location, but they have to be mimes; they can't speak. (To keep it from being too easy, they can't write down something and show it to others either)

                    I read from somewhere that TAR producers said that since they got stomach bug in Madagascar so they won't be going there again so i don't think Madagascar will happen again

                    Does anybody think that TAR could ever have fans vote in Second Chance teams? 15 or so teams would head to the starting line and Phil would hand clues to those selected by fans. The second chance teams could be:

                    1. Brooke/Claire
                    2. Andy/Tommy
                    3. Trey/Lexi
                    4. Abbie/Ryan
                    5. Max/Katie
                    6. Travis/Nicole
                    7. Misti/Jim
                    8. Kym/Alli
                    9. Bethany/Adam
                    10. Hayley/Blair
                    11. Justin/Diana
                    12. Sheri/Cole
                    13. Tara/Joey
                    14. Matt/Redmond
                    15. Henry/Evan
                    16. Kristi/Jen
                    17. Alex/Conor

                    I know I listed more than 15 or so teams, but this is who I could see being invited back. I know Max/Katie would not likely get voted in.

                    TAR Israel 7 just did. :tup:

                    really?...but isnt Philippines is really dangerous these days? (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/confused-onion-head-emoticon.gif?1292862495)

                    I have to say the Mindanao island is far more dangerous than both Luzon and Visayas islands. TAR Israel have already made their tasks in Manila & Bohol. Cebu City is quite good however there are a lot of drug addicts residing in there. Iloilo City, as far as I know, is very welcoming and needs the teams to get here. I live in Iloilo City so a lot of places here are high on technology and I would like best for teams to visit here.

                    TAR Asia 5 of course visited recently, but in the Northern Philippines. And Pekin Express had teams of course traveling around, hitchhiking and staying in local peoples' homes and they were perfectly fine. There's definitely lots of safe locations all over the Philippines. Even safer than Metro Manila which TAR stayed in for TAR25.

                    Hopefully next time TARUS visits the Philippines, they can travel further outside of Manila  :tup:

                    In S25 they did 2 legs right? they did challenges with tuktuk, fish, that infamous plough with ox, mop thing from coconut (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/crazy-monkey/crazy-monkey-emoticon-044.gif?1292792390)
                    what else philippines can offer? (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/relax2-onion-head-emoticon.gif?1292862517) i like plough with ox they are so funny especially the wrestlers got pooped by their ox (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/pff1-onion-head-emoticon.gif)

                    Somebody has yet to watch TAR 5, one of the best TAR seasons ever made. The Filipino legs on TAR 5 and TAR Aus 2 were spectacular. Also the ox task is from TAR 5 first where most TAR fans agree that it is one of the most memorable moments in the series. Where Colin muttered the infamous "My Ox is Broken" line, one of the most memorable lines in the series. (I do find it funny every time I think of it.) The El Nido leg from TAR 5 is said to be one of the best penultimate legs in TAR history leading to one of the saddest eliminations. In this leg teams had to go island hopping and one of the tasks one team member of each team had to ascend the Lagen Wall. Also "Jig" or "Pig" is one of the best Detours in TAR History that has appeared in many international versions but not the US version yet.

                    Thanks Peach! I know a handful tasks here in Iloilo City. Like if teams could get in here, they should try practicing our own Dinagyang Festival. It's quite similar to other countries like Chile, wearing tribal clothes and then perform timely energetic dances in honor of Santo Niño. Aside from that, they should try our special Pancit Molo (pork dumpling soup), have them try skimboarding in Villa-Arevalo Beach, do track and field to the finish line in Iloilo Sports Complex, and if there's a chance - let them eat Balut (duck's egg) here, and have them go to pitstop: Iloilo Museum of Contemporary Art in Festive Walk, Megaworld.

                    Thought I'd make a 12-team cast archetype list & accompanied route again:
                    M/M
                    Grandfathers (early 60s-mid 70s) - Not like your typical grandpas, they are physically fit and cutthroat in competition. Pro bodybuilding past suggestable (think Arnold Schwarzenegger). Will pull the flirting card to get ahead and make young locals from different countries hilariously swoon over elderly men. Very reliable and loyal in general with a prophetic sense of travel, culture, fitness, and food.
                    Co-entrepreneur brothers (30s) - Business owners of a wish-to-be franchise (that nobody's ever heard of) who are left-brained masters. A tough exterior, but under no circumstance would they be brave enough to do uncomfortable things. They finagle their way out of stuff instead of owning up to their duties. Likely to make each other suffer for their mistakes by dragging out their frustrations pettily.

                    F/F
                    EMTs-in-training (early 20s) - The dutchesses of the ambulance! Somewhat overconfident to the point they come off as brash. Are highly skilled in multiple activities and are knowledgeable with world traveling with little experience outside of the States. Come off as incredibly emotional (think TAR29 Brooke + TAR13 Kelly & Christy) whenever their knowledge backfires and gets the best of them. Counting on them to make memorable quotes for titles.
                    Street artists (late 20s-early 30s) - Urban graffiti enthusiasts who know how to go above and beyond to display well-finished commissioned and public art, climbing walls, traversing ledges, hanging off of lampposts, whatever. Not taggers. Perhaps a little loud and obnoxious in intense situations, but not incredibly overbearing.
                    Upstate debutantes (early 20s) - Wealthy bachelorettes from Upstate NY. Must have attended fancy cotillions, but are very outgoing and natural within different social environments and less-than-desirable places. Super energetic and entertaining during travel shenanigans with quite a voice together to get their points across.

                    (M/F)
                    Dating couple 1 (early 20s & early 30s) - A college graduate from a semi-well known university with a normal stable job dating a tarot reader/hotel bookkeeper/Uber driver/hustler. Who knows what they're gonna bring to the table?!!?
                    Dating couple 2 (mid-20s) - Quirky podcasting duo who deliver up-to-date news and coverage of pop culture, international affairs, and making entertaining games. Likely the annoying phonies of the season who play to the cameras. They think - emphasize on THINK - they are highly educated and hold a moral high ground by their communications degree and tenancy on radio shows. Nice couple in general with pushy tendencies.
                    Dating couple 3 (mid-20s) - Interracial couple of a Samoan woman and Alaskan-born man. Quarrelers, but forgive quickly afterward. One is very artistic while the other relies on practicality. They are a disaster in timed situations.
                    Exes (late 50s) - 50, but still act like 5-year olds on the edit. With the goal of trying out their relationship one more time to prove their family and friends wrong, their plan backfires and they show zero respect, sympathy, or compassion for each other's mistakes and wrongdoings. Voice-crack type of arguers and excessive criers. Hates on local people from different countries for their own mistakes. RFFers and Facebook users would all concur: "The ultimate nightmare team in TAR history"
                    Married couple (mid 40s) - Russian-American farming immigrants with a distinct dialect who moved to the big city to pursue a new life. Have an extensive photobook proof of their international backpacking vacations. Are mechanically and digitally prepared to handle anything on the race. Their weakness is navigation (think Charla & Mirna), but are incredibly entertaining, perhaps overdramatic, on their way to route markers. Bickerers.
                    Stepsiblings (late 20s or mid 30s) - Brother and sister duo formed from the foster care system and are the epitome of pure. Sibling rivalry existant, and both are competitive athletically. Experienced emotional trauma and are able to sympathize and empathize for the world around them.
                    Uncle/niece (late 40s & 21) - Fan-favorite types who are incredibly genuine and entertaining. A rough past and reconnection brought this team together. Uncle or niece has a physical disability that proves to be an advantage for themselves. Adventure-seeking and shows support through tough love similar to a coach during tasks, and aim to be highly competitive on the race.
                    ---
                    STARTING LINE: Imperial Sand Dunes in Brawley, CA
                    Starting line elimination task: Unearth dune buggy wheels to clear a driveway out of their sand pit. Steer the buggy over the dune and in the direction of a digital board displaying 100 car door keypad combinations, only 11 of these unique codes could open one of the cars on the lot in order for teams to get their next clue in the driver seat window. After every five minutes, the codes would change in position on the board, some taken off and some added in, but the trick to succeeding is only the combos staying on the board are the real ones. Last team remaining without a car is "stranded" in the desert, eliminating them from the race.

                    That makes me good where I love your ideas

                    THE AMAZING RACE 33 ROUTE

                    STARTING LINE: Huntington Library and Botanical Garden, San Marino, California, USA

                    LEG 2 (Fiji → Australia): Melbourne, Australia  | flight to Melbourne
                    LEG 3 (Australia): Geelong and Queenscliff, Australia  | travel by marked vehicle across the countryside to Geelong
                    LEG 4 (Australia → Singapore): Singapore, Singapore  | flight to Singapore; tasks during the night leg inspired by Crazy Rich Asians
                    LEG 5 (Singapore → Thailand): Phuket, Thailand  | flight to Phuket using a provided Travelocity app to book one of two flights to Phuket with cultural inspired tasks like Muay Thai moves and untying a pontoon raft, plus searching oysters on the sea below
                    LEG 6 (Thailand → Oman): Muscat, Oman  | flight to Muscat with tasks in rural area outside of Muscat liek steepe mountains
                    LEG 7 (Oman → South Africa): Cape Town, South Africa  (rural) | flight to Cape Town and drive into a rural countryside (Paarl, Atlantis, etc.)
                    LEG 8 (South Africa): Cape Town, South Africa  (urban) | drive across Cape Town
                    LEG 9 (South Africa → Latvia): Riga, Latvia  | flight to Riga; teams would have a bungee jump task in Sigulda
                    LEG 10 (Latvia → Spain): Barcelona, Spain  | flight to Barcelona
                    LEG 11 (Spain → United Kingdom): Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick, England, UK  (via Birmingham) | flight to Birmingham and drive using marked cars to Warwickshire (Stratford-upon-Avon) and finish in Warwick
                    LEG 12 (United Kingdom → United States): Charlotte, North Carolina, USA  | transport to London Heathrow Airport and travel to Charlotte, North Carolina

                    FINISH LINE: Latta Plantation Park, Huntersville, North Carolina

                    5 continents, 10 countries and 34,000 miles with 2 new countries and 0 one-time visited countries with overdue places in Australia and South Africa, as well the state of North Carolina (first visit in the Race franchise)

                    The reason I posted it that Fiji and Latvia are very overdue. Fiji is in the crossroads halfway between U.S. West Coast and Australia that is famous for being the filming location of Survivor, and Latvia is the one of the Baltic countries remained unvisited in the Race to make the Baltic trio complete. Oman is also overdue that is being unvisited since season 17 and would be the first in HD era.

                    I wish TAR production should visit here in Iloilo, Philippines. This pic serves as one of the places in Iloilo and should be perfect for putting up a cluebox stand that will lead them to their next task.

                    They can’t go to Chernobyl Ruins anyway because of its impracticality despite using safety gears.

                    mmm maybe an underwater location like undersea hotel? many teams will be terrified (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/evil-smile-onion-head-emoticon.gif?1292862503)
                    They've scuba dove into the Jules' Undersea Lodge in the Florida Keys in season 18, but it really wasn't scary at all. Unless you find a bad recreation of Ariel a nightmare. Or this...

                    How about for Season 33 they do UFB 2 or a Second Chances season for s19-32, but they bring 20 teams to the starting line then there's a fan vote before the race and 11 of the teams get real clues (the teams who get voted in) and then the other 9 get blank tickets?

                    Not this time, Zack. TAR 32 has already done filming and let's go for TAR 33.

                    I have the route list on my post for TAR 33 on reply #4469 on post 179 (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1250450.html#msg1250450).

                    I hope TAR can return to the Philippines in the future and they can have a task involving arnis, the Philippine national sport and martial art:

                    Honestly, will the TAR8 family teams ever be called back to race again?

                    Also, I am surprised Jaymes and James have not been asked to return. They were such a popular team.

                    Oh! That's true. They could've been a hybrid team like Rachel & Elissa if they did 3-3-3-2 for teams instead of 5-3-3

                    Season 33/34 Route Wishlist

                    Starting Line: Dodger Stadium (Maybe the starting line task could be going trough hundreds of baseballs to find one that has the correct country flag?)

                    Pitstop: The Giant Wild Goose Pagoda

                    Leg 8: Athens, Greece, to Hamburg, Germany

                    Final challenge: Part involves properly marking each country on the map with its respective flag. Once approved, they will then have to mark which team got eliminated on each leg. This does not include non elimination legs. Fake flags and teams will also be readily available to teams with a slight difference. (E.x. a fake flag of china with 2 extras stars on it)
                    Final Pitstop: Epcot in the America section (I know its cliché lol)

                    I would love to see a Qatari leg but that will be less likely to happen.

                    I think the US producers wanted to go to Qatar, but they were put off by the bureaucracy?



                    On topic: Personally, after seeing Colin and Christie's redemption arc/edit, I do hope that some of the more controversial racers, or racers that made some colossal mistakes the first time round, can be brought back for the same reason (The Amazing Race: Redemption, if you will). For example, Flo (with Zach or someone else), Justin and Diana (a few years later, after their child is older and hopefully they mellow off like Colin and Christie), Toni and Dallas and James and Abba (with that lost passport).


                    If not, similar to Survivor, it could be TAR: Heroes vs Villains.

                    I had a weird twist idea.

                    The Accident Card

                    When this card is played on a team, they have to have both team members complete the Roadblock. The express pass can counter this card and make it that only one person has to do the road block. It also cant be used on legs that have a double roadblock already.

                    What's your guys' thoughts on it? Broken? Too weird? Genius?

                    Double Roadblock already happened in Season 27 as a Speed Bump, and it was extremely devastating. The team that had both team members do the Roadblock had no chance to survive.

                    That makes me good where I love your ideas

                    THE AMAZING RACE 33 ROUTE

                    STARTING LINE: Huntington Library and Botanical Garden, San Marino, California, USA
                    LEG 1 (United States → Fiji) : Nadi and Mamanuca Islands, Fiji  | flight to Nadi, sign up a charter flight to Malolo Lailai Island and ferry to nearby islands before heading back to mainland
                    LEG 2 (Fiji → Australia): Melbourne, Australia  | flight to Melbourne
                    LEG 3 (Australia): Geelong and Queenscliff, Australia  | travel by marked vehicle across the countryside to Geelong
                    LEG 4 (Australia → Singapore): Singapore, Singapore  | flight to Singapore; tasks during the night leg inspired by Crazy Rich Asians
                    LEG 5 (Singapore → Thailand): Phuket, Thailand  | flight to Phuket using a provided Travelocity app to book one of two flights to Phuket with cultural inspired tasks like Muay Thai moves and untying a pontoon raft, plus searching oysters on the sea below
                    LEG 6 (Thailand → Oman): Muscat, Oman  | flight to Muscat with tasks in rural area outside of Muscat liek steepe mountains
                    LEG 7 (Oman → South Africa): Cape Town, South Africa  (rural) | flight to Cape Town and drive into a rural countryside (Paarl, Atlantis, etc.)
                    LEG 8 (South Africa): Cape Town, South Africa  (urban) | drive across Cape Town
                    LEG 9 (South Africa → Latvia): Riga, Latvia  | flight to Riga; teams would have a bungee jump task in Sigulda
                    LEG 10 (Latvia → Spain): Barcelona, Spain  | flight to Barcelona
                    LEG 11 (Spain → United Kingdom): Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick, England, UK  (via Birmingham) | flight to Birmingham and drive using marked cars to Warwickshire (Stratford-upon-Avon) and finish in Warwick
                    LEG 12 (United Kingdom → United States): Charlotte, North Carolina, USA  | transport to London Heathrow Airport and travel to Charlotte, North Carolina

                    FINISH LINE: Latta Plantation Park, Huntersville, North Carolina

                    5 continents, 10 countries and 34,000 miles with 2 new countries and 0 one-time visited countries with overdue places in Australia and South Africa, as well the state of North Carolina (first visit in the Race franchise)

                    The reason I posted it that Fiji and Latvia are very overdue. Fiji is in the crossroads halfway between U.S. West Coast and Australia that is famous for being the filming location of Survivor, and Latvia is the one of the Baltic countries remained unvisited in the Race to make the Baltic trio complete. Oman is also overdue that is being unvisited since season 17 and would be the first in HD era.

                    This route, I love it.

                    Leg 5: Melbourne to Perth
                    Leg 6: Perth to Cape Town, SA
                    Leg 7: Rural SA leg
                    Leg 8: Cape Town to Lagos, Nigeria
                    Leg 9: Lagos to  Madrid, Spain
                    Leg 10: Madrid to Lisbon, Portugal
                    Leg 11: Lisbon to San Juan, Costa Rica
                    Leg 12: San Juan to Nashville, TN

                    This was the course for 33 I came up with in the 32 thread. Since they're going to air two seasons filmed at the same time of year and they usually stick to more to tropical and southern hemisphere locations when they film in US fall, I tried to make it as different from 32 as possible. 32 is South America and South East Asia heavy so I'm trying to stick more to other parts of the southern hemisphere.

                    I assumed that both China and HK are off limits because of politics so I picked SK as the obligatory East Asian trifecta leg since they didn't go there in 32. 31 went to Japan so I picked a new SK city. Since they're not going to mainland China, I wanted a Mandarin-speaking country so I picked Taiwan.  Singapore would probably be the first NEL and they'd just ride the bus to Malaysia. It's been a long time since they've been to Australia so it seems like a no brainer.  South Africa hasn't been visited since 7 so it also seems like a no brainer. It's a thirteen-hour flight so I'd make this a NEL and the next leg non-international travel.

                    I can't believe they've never been to Nigeria, especially with Lagos being the biggest metro area on the continent. Without India or HK, this could be their chance to do the movie type tasks they love.  I picked the Iberian countries because they're a lot less popular destinations than the other Western European countries. One of them would be the last NEL. Costa Rica hasn't been visited since 8 (lol) and they haven't been to a tropical rainforest country this season so it seems like a fit. Nashville has never been an end and there's a lot they could do but with 31's finale being music heavy, it might seem a bit repetitive.

                    I'd maybe add a second new country but I've got a lot of places where they haven't been in at least ten years.

                    With people getting upset about Big Brother using animals in competitions, I could see TAR using less and less animals in the future as well.
                    Which means, we will never get Pig or Jig 4.0 whenever TAR returns to the Philippines (and decides to leave Metro Manila).  :'(

                    I feel like there's a difference between BB, where people are tackling sheep or shoving around snakes, and TAR where, aside from the stuff involving elephants, it's usually 'lead this animal' or 'milk this camel'.

                    For a premiere leg I wanna see them go to Gold Coast! They start off with a movie themed ARI at a film studio, then they fly by helicopter to Southport Spit (area of marine world) and have a flyboarding roadblock. Then they either travle by jet boat or jet ski to Surfers Paradise where they get their clue from a famous meter maid then find the pitstop!

                    Leg 11: La Paz, Bolivia to Lima, Peru
                    Leg 12: Lima, Peru to Nashville, Tennessee, USA

                    Due to having an updated filming date for TAR 33 now being pushed to a later date, I decided to revise into mostly Southern Hemisphere route.

                    That's the kind of classical route i love!

                    A few years ago I designed a leg for Eritrea, thinking it would never happen. But now that Ethiopia and Eritrea have kissed and made up (Abiy Ahmed even snagged a Peace Prize for it), Asmara might be worth a visit.

                    The Sudarso Bros would be fun. Then there would be the connection as well for TAR22/24 Meghan to go from TAR to Power Rangers while the Sudarso Bros (where Peter was on the same team as Meghan) to go from Power Rangers to TAR.  :cheer:

                    Ive been avoiding TAR Can & Aus for so long, because its so wrong TAR without silly ol' Phill, but actually this year, they beter than TAR US (https://cutekawaiiresources.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/97.gif?w=560)
                    So iam hoping in the future TAR US can learn from those two, better leg design, more tasks in every leg and throw more twists (https://cutekawaiiresources.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/65.gif?w=560)

                    In the same week HaMerotz LaMillion went to Nepal for the first time, and TAR Vietnam went to North Korea, TAR Canada had ANOTHER leg in Ontario. Also Colin & Christie winning TAR 31: Reality Clash alone makes up for the mediocrity of leg designs in the season. Heck even them returning and seeing them change was great too.

                    Here's something I've been thinking of recently! The game structure hasn't really changed for a while (especially with focusing of themes recently). And I personally like to see more game related twists so here's a sample Race structure that I came up with! Also, with the Race's ever lowering budget, why not add game-related Leg prizes instead of cash or trip prizes!

                    Leg 1: 11 teams
                    - Starting Line Task - last gets Automatic U-Turn
                    - Non-elimination

                    Leg 2: 11 teams
                    - Speed Bump: Double Roadblock
                    - Fast Forward (1st)
                    - Detour - first team to finish Detour A gets the Express Pass (Skip a task)/and in Detour B the Save (Save yourself from elimination. Must be used before verdict of elimination or non-elimination (consumed either way) but after being told they are last. Team doesn't get a Speed Bump the following leg). Both can be used until the end of Leg 8.

                    Leg 3: 10 (or 11) teams
                    - Double Yield: You can yield teams ahead and behind you. Yielded teams take a penalty at the pit stop. Will not take effect if targeted team already checked in.

                    Leg 4: 9 (or 10) teams
                    - Double U-Turn
                    - Fast Forward (2nd)
                    Non-elimination

                    Leg 5: 9 (or 10) teams
                    - Speed Bump: Additional task

                    Leg 6: 8 (or 9) teams
                    - Intersection (teams are joined for both Detour and Active Route Marker which both appears before the Detour)
                    - Fast Forward (3rd, appears at the intersection; can be attempted by just 1 team if there are 9 teams due to the Save, can be attempted by 2 teams that are intersected if there are only 8 teams; this is written on the Clue depending on the situation)
                    - Face-Off

                    Leg 7: 7 (or 8 ) teams
                    - Double U-Turn Vote (Teams vote privately with Phil like in TARAus 4)

                    Leg 8: 6 (or 7) teams
                    - Fast Forward (4th)
                    - Face-Off
                    (Last leg to use Express Pass or Save)

                    Leg 9: 5 (or 6) teams
                    - Single U-Turn
                    - Single Yield

                    Leg 10: 4 (or 5) teams
                    - Fast Forward (5th)

                    Leg 11: 3 (or 4) teams
                    - Face-Off
                    - if there are 3 teams this would be a non-elimination leg, if there are 4 teams, this would be an elimination leg.

                    Leg 12: 3 teams
                    - Speed Bump (1 Active Route Marker task is made harder; would only occur if it was a non-elimination last leg)


                    Game-related Leg Prizes
                    - Pause Button - if you are at a Fast Forward, you may play this to ensure that you are the only team that can attempt the Fast Forward (this would kick out any other team already attempting it if you came after them - let's them finish their current attempt). Wears off after you leave the Fast Forward (and is no longer effective if you came back to try again)
                    - Shortcut - if you are U-Turned or Yielded, you may play this to not be affected
                    - Wild U-Turn - if you arrive at a Detour, you may play this on another team that is behind you) to U-Turn them automatically. Acts like a Single U-Turn at the start of a Detour.
                    - Wild Yield - play any time. Declare another team, and that team receives a predetermined penalty at the pit stop. Is ineffective if the targeted team has already checked-in.

                    Notes:
                    - I really like the strategy of the Fast Forward from seasons 1 to 4 (probably the only game mechanic I liked from that era) of having to choose when to do the Fast Forward. Nowadays, teams just tend to let the first team go to the Fast Forward and never think of it again. So here I added 5 Fast Forwards! Teams can now have more of a strategy to when to use a Fast Forward, and hopefully breathe more competition for it.
                    - Bringing back the Yield and the Intersection. While I love the U-Turn, I want to see more obstructions in the Race. So I modified the Yield, because admittedly, watching a team wait at some place for a timer to run out is kinda boring. BUT watching them wait at the pit stop could be exciting! Meanwhile, the Intersection has been stated to be forever axed, but I would like to see it come back, especially to make it interact with the Face-Off! Also, having an Intersection with a Fast Forward when there's an odd number of teams is quite a risky game mechanic (because it forces 1 team to take the fast forward).
                    - Ever since Season 25 where the Express Pass was like a Speed Bump type prize, I wanted to see it attained more like this instead of your standard Leg prize. So I made it a prize for a team who finishes a Detour first. And the Save on the other! It could also say on the Clue or at the Detour site which prize you could get at the end, so teams could decide which side to do.
                    - I would also like to replicate the drama from the penultimate leg of TARA 5 with the U-Turn and Yield on the same leg hehehe
                    - The Speed Bump on the last leg is quite shall I say daring. But I do want a shake up on that last leg. Plus, it's only a fail-safe if the Save wasn't used. I don't like mid-leg eliminations (even though it helped out my fave team Amy & Maya), so the idea of a Speed Bump that only makes a task harder instead of a whole other task could be great compromise for the final leg.

                    Thoughts?  :conf:

                    Yielded teams take a penalty at the pit stop.

                    Please no. This is what the Israeli version does and it's really not fun to watch at all.

                    Wait really? Haha I haven't watched HMLM. I just think of the times that teams are running to the pit stop while another anxiously waits for their timer to run out.

                    Had an interesting idea for a themed season, curious as to thoughts. Do a charity themed season with a $2 million prize, half to the winners, half to charity. Each team has a specific charity they are running for. Like two special education teaches running for Special Olympics for example.

                    I think nearly half of those teams have broken up or otherwise would not race again :/

                    But if we're doing Unfinished Business 2, if they're physically able to surely Mark & Bopper need an actual second chance at racing.

                    Also as I'm not in my house for a sixth day with the flu (thankfully not the coronovirus) I've got nothing else to do so

                    TAR 33 - how to dodge a communicable disease edition

                    START - New York, NY
                    LEG 1 - to Mendoza, Argentina
                    LEG 2 - to Santiago, Chile
                    LEG 3 - to Easter Island, Chile
                    LEG 4 - to Dunedin, NZ
                    LEG 5 - to Bogor and Puncak, Indonesia
                    LEG 6 - to Jakarta, Indonesia
                    LEG 7 - to Dhamrai, Bangladesh
                    LEG 8 - to Petra National Park, Jordan
                    LEG 9 - to Madaba, Jordan
                    LEG 10 - to Malkerns, Eswatini
                    LEG 11 - to Johannesburg, South Africa
                    LEG 12 - to Buffalo and Niagara Falls, NY (while a winter leg here would be possible - I can see a task about the Battle of Buffalo, for instance - it would be easier in summer; alternatively a finish in New York would make for the fourth 'closed' lap of TAR US)

                    35,000 miles is a little more than usual but somehow it fits within their established filming patterns  :cheer:

                    I had to Google what Eswatini is (sounded like someone invented a new bar cocktail :martini:). Can't say I'm not surprised. Think there will be a return visit to Maputo in the future and the possibility of a bus taking teams there?

                    Appreciate the warm reception  :hfive:

                    A wintry season to settle the "why haven't we gone back there" blues -

                    START - Los Angeles, CA
                    LEG 1 - to Taipei, Taiwan
                    LEG 2 - to Singkawang, Indonesia
                    LEG 3 - to Kuching, Malaysia
                    LEG 4 - to Asmara, Eritrea
                    LEG 5 - to Massawa, Eritrea
                    LEG 6 - to Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina
                    LEG 7 - to Athens, Greece
                    LEG 8 - to Meteora, Greece
                    LEG 9 - to Rovaniemi, Finland
                    LEG 10 - to Guayaquil, Ecuador
                    LEG 11 - to Galapagos Islands, Ecuador
                    LEG 12 - to New York, NY

                    Somewhat more 'grounded' in reality, there's a lot of Eastern Europe, undervisited countries, and reindeer.

                    Created a new, full set of cast archetypes in celebration of the upcoming filming season! :martini: Let's get controversial.
                    May it be a 12-team-packed Trailblazers vs Hustlers theme!

                    M/M
                    Professional poker players (Age: 35-45) / unlike Maria & Tiffany, they're more experienced in winning huge wagers and are unafraid to take a gamble to get ahead in the race. Extensive global travelers, physically stronger in stature, and likely to look like or be fathers.
                    African-American artistes (20s-30s) / Fashion-forward B-list entertainers in the industry who either own a makeup line or run a decently-sized YouTube/Tik Tok channel and are close with their young fanbase (cough-ratings-cough). Obsessed and vain with the fact they are on the race. Think of a fusion of Team New Kids on the Block + Tyler & Korey.
                    "Siesta Key meets Panama City Beach" (early to mid 20s) / Emotionally-driven and easy-on-the-eyes clubbing and fitness enthusiasts. They are the pejorative term for a hustler and were obvious recruits. Viewers will think they were Bachelorette rejects. Their own version of funny and crazy.
                    Grandfathers (early to late 60s) / Physically and mentally active Cold War veterans who were inspired to serve by their predecessors in the WWII militia. Surprisingly muscular like Bill & Cathi and do not fret during troubles. On the race to simply have the best time after retirement.

                    M/F
                    Best friends / male cheerleader and female athlete (early 20s) / The cliche gender-conforming switcheroo - are the first male cheer captain and woman athlete of their school(s). Appearances like potential candidates as a homecoming king and queen in their high school days, are intelligent in their thinking, but lack maturity in their speaking. Naturally funny and maybe controversial.
                    Dating (mid 20s) / First transgender male-female pair in TAR history, are open about their stories, naturally energetic and funny, and have been Race viewers since Matt & Ana bickered at each other for using a payphone to call for a taxi.
                    Dating EMT (mid 30s) / Medical technicians who are always on their feet in the ambulance and at the ER room. Brainy, but lack some self-awareness socially and struggle at each other's expense. Travis & Nicole 2.0 essentially.
                    Married or Engaged (early to mid 40s) / Loving pair of side hustle juggernauts who have lucrative ways of earning money more than the standard Uber and online squiring regimen outside of their day jobs. Auditioned for TAR as the ultimate "side hustle". They are able to sell ice to an eskimo (think Brook from TAR17) and be giddy about it. Bigger threats than they appear.

                    F/F
                    Astronauts (40s-late 60s) / female space veterans who are highly skilled and awesome communicators, preferably fun/funny and naturally exciting to watch. Teams dare to cross them and consider them enormous physical threats.
                    Multi-gen moms (late 20s) / A team who values their time and immense work ethic living in multigenerational homes, perhaps single moms and watching over their retired parents, and are heroes at family caregiving. Wagered their hard-earned money on babysitters and teenagers to watch their kids while they are on the race. Discover they are a hot mess on the race and likely to have a quitter-attitude epiphany. Enthusiastic and full of bravado!
                    Housekeepers (40s) / the underrated queens of living life as hustlers, extremely talented range in duties and responsibilities. Preferably have worked in the hotel service or homestay caregiving for 20+ years. Race fanatics and are natural entertainers for the screen, uplifting in spirit to watch as they venture around the world.
                    Construction colleagues (20s-30s) / Work together in a male-dominated environment and can pull their own weight. Considerably more "trailblazing" than "hustling" due to their company takeover. Appearance: possibly someone with a shorter cut (think Logan from TAR27) contrasting someone with flowing hair. Latent talents revealed as they continue on the race. Pose as giant threats on the race for their physical strength.

                    I wish we had another US-centric route, because there is so much more that can be explored than what finale legs give us. A regular finale leg usually sticks to the bigger cities, and are usually underwhelming. One of my favorite things about Family Edition is that we got to see what was in the US itself, than just going to a big city for the final leg. When will the US version of the show go to a place like Old Faithful again? We've seen what other countries have to offer multiple times, why not show what the US has to offer outside of the big cities. In 31 seasons only half the states have been visited, and some of the states that have been visited haven't gotten visited in 10+ seasons (Washington, Oregon, Arizona, Colorado, Massachusetts).

                    In relation to the recent news, I thought I would create a Family Edition-style route that touches the States not (currently) being affected by the outbreak. Let's get controversial.

                    This is a great route. Personally, I'd make part of at least one or two legs focus on US history. For example, the first Arkansas Pit Stop could be Central High School in Little Rock.

                    Unlucky timing- right after you post this, Colorado announces a couple of confirmed cases. :P

                    IMO, they could even try an all-North America route. Dipping into Canada or Mexico could add variety for a few legs.

                    I hope you guys like it. All comments and critiques are welcomed :3 Its my first time in awhile trying to design a season. I thought it'd be interesting to have at least one leg in Canada. Tried to use a variety of places either rarely visited or visited almost every season.

                    I think nearly half of those teams have broken up or otherwise would not race again :/

                    But if we're doing Unfinished Business 2, if they're physically able to surely Mark & Bopper need an actual second chance at racing.

                    I've been thinking about this (https://cutekawaiiresources.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/yoyo125.gif?w=150&h=150)
                    at first i would love to have all stars edition every 3 seasons, but after watch winners at war and dont forget that disastrous S24, i kinda dont like all stars anymore
                    especially with the casts who arent play for very long time, they will come back very different person
                    but i do love to watch all those classic teams
                    so all they have to do is use the classic teams as the template for the new cast
                    for example, globetrotters, we can cast new young globetrotters instead of big easy & flight
                    the cowboys, they can cast a new young southern cowboys team
                    afghanimals, since american love to have any kind of of middle eastern villain, they can cast another young and more annoying middle eastern american team
                    bopper & mark, just cast another similar teams
                    country angels, just cast another similar blonde country singers
                    luke & mothers, cast similar mother-boy team
                    twinnie, cast another twins, and so on
                    there are millions of people out there, there must be some of them can be our new tv gold, all they have to do is find them (https://cutekawaiiresources.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/58.gif?w=560)

                    Self-quarantine inspired route by racing to different homes within a gated neighborhood and performing tasks involving their family's cultural individuality. :funny:

                    Food for thought:

                    I remember watching 2018's Hawaiian volcano eruption on the Big Island unfold, and recently read some personal pieces of the affected area being reopened again for tourism. I checked out some Google Maps images of what the "village" looks like now with the new dirt paths and it looks grotesquely, eerily beautiful. Maybe for a final Leg in the future if they want to head to Hawaii, they'd be able to revisit this "new" national park. Get the location back on the map.

                    Bringing up underrated American cities that need a finale.

                    Albuquerque, New Mexico - a beautiful city in a culturally unique state offering the sights of historic primitive-style pueblo buildings mixed in with an influx of tech manufacturing companies. It's also the birthplace of the Hatch Chile Festival, and has a very interesting plateau city called Acoma Pueblo in the outskirts. Albuquerque is also home to aboriginal sandpainters, screen printers, and even celebrities like Georgia O'Keefe who was a Modernist artist pioneer.
                    (fly into Albuquerque International Sunport)

                    Houston, Texas - surprised one of the biggest and most culturally diverse cities in the U.S. has never been visited once by TAR, but understandable since the city's public transportation is virtually nonexistent. Ironically, Houston has a unique sense of transportation. Famous as the term used for astronauts addressing land captains at the NASA Johnson Space Center. An annual art car parade is held on the streets of downtown as well as the occasional horse-drawn carriages. There are beautiful green spaces with surprising venues (Buffalo Bayou Park Cistern, Discovery Green, Memorial Park's Bayou Bend Collections, and Hermann Park's McGovern Centennial Gardens), a mixing pot of nightlife inspired by other cities, and low-key vantage points around the city.
                    (fly into George Bush Intercontinental Airport)

                    Kansas City, Missouri - famous for its local barbecue and jazz scene and WWI metallic poppies commemorative memorial, but also home to hidden gems that outsiders normally would not assume to associate with this city such as the underground warehouse of Subtropolis, numerous packaging plants, Nelson Atkins Museum of Art shuttlecock green space, Pawn and Pint board game pub, Art Alley, and the Central Library's rooftop terrace vantage point, and the Airline History Museum hosting a nice place for a final memory task. Potentially a site for one of the best finale structures since Anchorage's visit if done right.
                    (fly into Kansas City International Airport)

                    Atlantic City, New Jersey - the final three can work their way down the coastline to Cape May passing Wildwood and Margate City. Rich 1960's-style aesthetics with unique finds while driving down the Jersey Shore. Possibly a creative end to a mix of modern and rural tasks that's typical in every race.
                    (fly into Atlantic City International Airport)

                    All of them have international airports. :funny: I listed them below. Plus, 3 of the 4 are major cities with enormous downtown areas.

                    Speaking as a New Jerseyan, despite its name Atlantic City Airport does not have international flights. The airport is served only by Spirit with flights to the Southeast. Teams could fly into NYC and take helicopter like TAR 27. But yes, I do like your idea of a leg in AC.  :tup:

                    I recently watched TAR5 and teams connected domestically (I think in Denver?) on their way to Dallas from Calgary, so it's not unprecedented for teams to not directly fly internationally into their final destination (although TAR5 was quite some time ago)

                    I remember teams having to fly all the way across the world from Moscow to Portland, Oregon back in season 13 so it's definitely doable and possible for teams to just fly into Atlantic City through connection flights. I was thinking if Juneau from season 23 could make it on the show since its "international" airport primarily have flights around Alaska, then all these suggestions are valid, and Kansas City and Albuquerque are a shoo-in. Houston, I'm astounded the fifth largest city in the U.S. has not been visited despite its taxi shortage.
                     :idgit

                    It's the matter of smaller, rural cities being unable to be visited, but I do remember teams traveling to the suburb-rural fringe city of Burleson in Dallas' metro area for the blind date season.

                    I never realized the airport only serves Spirit Airlines. I guess it's going to be the Race's first time arriving at the Philadelphia International Airport as well. :funny: Isn't it like a two hour commute from the border of Pennsylvania to the coast?

                    That's true. There's an Atlantic City Amtrak line, but I'm not totally sure how frequent those run.

                    What do you mean by taxi shortage, does Houston have a problem where there are too few taxis? That would be mental considering theirs virtually no good public transport, but surely this wouldn't inhibit the race as they could have a self drive or just order in 3 taxis.

                    I have always wondered why Dallas is visited over Houston, also why no Austin or San Antonio. Come to think there are so many US cities that need visits for a first time or again, Philadelphia, Seattle, Miami, Orlando, Boston, Denver, also San Diego with all the visits to LA you'd think they'd go to San Diego.

                    Houston doesn't have a lot of taxis because most, if not all, of the residents there have to drive to get to places 99% of the time in the city and the pedestrian pathways there are super demotivating and lack care. I was there visiting one of my old college friends over a summer weekend and toured the city. I was amazed how disconnected everyone was from everywhere and my friend said that she has never seen a taxi (Uber or Lyft don't count since they're private cars) in the 7 years living there. Here in Chicago, I can walk around my neighborhood and see at least one person, and spontaneously walk to the grocery store and pharmacy. Seeing a few taxis every day is normal for me. In Houston, I didn't see a single person casually walking the sidewalks while I was being driven around by her. I saw a city bus and lightrail and no one was riding on them. Talk about culture shock. So if a team ends up losing their taxi in Houston, :waves:.

                    Probably should add LA, San Francisco, Vegas, Portland, and Seattle to that public transport-heavy list as well. Most of the west coast is highly developed. The tornado alley, not really.

                    What do you mean by taxi shortage, does Houston have a problem where there are too few taxis? That would be mental considering theirs virtually no good public transport, but surely this wouldn't inhibit the race as they could have a self drive or just order in 3 taxis.

                    I have always wondered why Dallas is visited over Houston, also why no Austin or San Antonio. Come to think there are so many US cities that need visits for a first time or again, Philadelphia, Seattle, Miami, Orlando, Boston, Denver, also San Diego with all the visits to LA you'd think they'd go to San Diego.
                    Houston doesn't have a lot of taxis because most, if not all, of the residents there have to drive to get to places 99% of the time in the city and the pedestrian pathways there are super demotivating and lack care. I was there visiting one of my old college friends over a summer weekend and toured the city. I was amazed how disconnected everyone was from everywhere and my friend said that she has never seen a taxi (Uber or Lyft don't count since they're private cars) in the 7 years living there. Here in Chicago, I can walk around my neighborhood and see at least one person, and spontaneously walk to the grocery store and pharmacy. Seeing a few taxis every day is normal for me. In Houston, I didn't see a single person casually walking the sidewalks while I was being driven around by her. I saw a city bus and lightrail and no one was riding on them. Talk about culture shock. So if a team ends up losing their taxi in Houston, :waves:.

                    Ah that's so crazy. The USA is so weird in that their development caused all infrastructure funding to go towards roads instead of public transport with the exceptions of NYC, Boston & Chicago (Correct me if there are more), but I never knew that about taxis in Houston, maybe a self drive finale?
                    Probably should add LA, San Francisco, Vegas, Portland, and Seattle to that public transport-heavy list as well. Most of the west coast is highly developed. The tornado alley, not really.

                    Depends on how you define developed. Ames, Iowa has the third largest per capita public transit ridership (behind NYC and San Francisco) with a population of ~60,000. Granted it's a college town and most of the ridership is college students. But still, there are plenty of midwestern towns that make the list in terms of per capita ridership.

                    I'd take account that most of these cities on that list are well-known college towns including the big cities and it's more of a requirement for the university to be well-connected with its city so the data is kind of skewed in that way. I'm focusing on the connection between local residents of the area that don't feel limited in their options to travel around the city. I immediately noticed Penn State (State College, PA) and it's definitely more of a place that you drive or walk to different places within the scope of the city than call for a taxi or ride a bus (at least for permanent residents). But the ones I listed on the west coast even with the addition of primarily college towns made it on the list (SF/Concord, Seattle, Portland, LA, Vegas).

                    As an aside, I do still consider college students still as local residents, they very much are a part of a city and its culture. I understand how people like to separate students from the rest of the city, but I think it's unfair to say public transit ridership doesn't count if it's a university town. Public transit connects a city and is available to all residents, and is used by some non-student residents. Yes being a university town helps to explain the phenomenon, but it's still a city that is well connected by public transit.

                    But yes I agree with the main point that unless you are in one of the few places that are densely populated (whether that is a city or university town) with good access to public transit or lots of needs within walking distance, Americans will drive places to get from A to B.

                    So far the final legs in TAR US versions almost always take place in cities (or have some tasks in the city before going somewhere in suburbs).

                    If you want TAR US finale takes place takes fully outside of cities (with an exception of landing in an airport in cities, but directly followed by travelling to suburbs/remote area like by using helicopter, self driving, etc.), what destinations would you like to them visiting? What tasks would you like to see?

                    I'm asking this after seeing some final legs in TAR Canada that are not always took place in big cities, but instead can be happening fully in suburbs or towns like in Whistler, Banff, Port Carling, etc. I would like to see this happens in the US version as well. :luvya:

                    * Anywhere in Vermont: Beautiful fall foliage and New England culture
                    * Asheville, North Carolina: Mountains & arts
                    * Everglades, Florida: About an hour from Miami
                    * Big Bear Lake, California: About 2 hours from LAX

                    OMG, Fjell as in the municipality Fjell?! Wow, so random, but so cool. I'm grew up in Fjell.
                    Which places in Fjell do you want TAR to visit?

                    I don't know for sure as i've never designed a proper leg but a random rural cold leg there would be awesome.

                    Well, I wouldn't say that Fjell is the coldest place in Norway, since it's right outside Bergen on the west coast (20 minutes drive).
                    It would be more things to do and more interesting places to visit if you include the municipalities Sund and Øygarden (although Fjell, Sund and Øygarden merged into one municipality this year). For example Telavåg, with its history during WW2, and Hellesøy, a fishing village north in Øygarden etc.

                    Hopefully TAR will visit Bergen one day, and it would have been interesting for them to have a pit-stop at West Norwegian Emigration Center, an open-air museum on Radøy, north of Bergen, which have buildings from "the Norwegian areas" in US, as a homage to the Norwegian emigration to USA at the end of the 19th century and beginning of 20th century.

                    Been awhile since I made one of these wishlist seasons. Feel free to rate and share thoughts.

                    Leg 1: Los Angeles, USA (Better to get it out at start and not end), --> Sapporo, Japan
                    Leg 2: --> Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
                    Leg 3: --> New Delhi, India (Non Elimination)
                    Leg 4: Repeat
                    Leg 5: --> Alexandria, Egypt
                    Leg 6: --> Hamburg, Germany (Non Elimination)
                    Leg 7: --> Hanover, Germany (Via Train)
                    Leg 8: --> Milan, Italy
                    Leg 9: --> Tunis, Tunisia (Non Elimination)
                    Leg 10: Repeat
                    Leg 11: --> Porto, Portugal
                    Leg 12: --> Baltimore, Maryland

                    Fyi repeat just means that the leg is in the same leg as the previous one.

                    Since I am from Serbia and TAR has never been here, I would like them to come to my country. It is a European country situated partly in South-East and partly in Central Europe, and it has very long history and rich culture and tradition with many worldwide known people.

                    There are also other countries that have not been visited so far, or they should be visited more often. These are Canada, Mexico and all other Latin American countries except Brazil and Argentina, the rest of European countries with 0 visits, Greece, Portugal, Spain, Northern, Eastern and Central European countries, some other African and Middle East ones and the Oceanian countries, except Australia and New Zealand.

                    So, let's imagine a season like this (I will write countries, not places):

                    Leg 1: USA-Venezuela
                    Leg 2: Venezuela-Portugal
                    Leg 3: Portugal-Serbia
                    Leg 4: Serbia-Greece
                    Leg 5: Greece
                    Leg 6: Greece-Tunisia
                    Leg 7: Tunisia-Ivory Coast
                    Leg 8: Ivory Coast-Mongolia
                    Leg 9: Mongolia-Papua New Guinea
                    Leg 10: Papua New Guinea-Fiji
                    Leg 11: Fiji-Canada
                    Leg 12: Canada-USA

                    What do you think? :)

                    Well, I am not quite sure. Although small, Serbia has many beautiful and interesting areas. There are Vojvodina - the nothern region, which is part of big Pannonian plain, Belgrade, the capital and the largest city here, Central Serbia with Sumadija, where the renewal of our country in the 19th century began, and picturesque Eastern and Western Serbia. My country has very rich history, so there are many cultural and historical monuments, many churches and monasteries. Additionally, there are many natural beauties here, from breath-taking landscapes to rivers, lakes, mountains and national parks. These all attract tourists from around the world.

                    If TAR comes here, I think it would be nice (for a single leg) for some tasks to be done in Belgrade, and some others to be done in another region, in the vicinity of a river, mountain, lake or a monument. For example, a Roadblock can be done in Belgrade, then the teams should take a bus to another place and there perform a Detour.
                    I am not very competent for this question, since I am not a production professional, but I am glad you asked this question.

                    I see you are from Chicago. Maybe you know, that is the city where many Serbians and people with Serbian heritage live. Some estimations says there are over 300 000 Serbian people, which makes it one of the most populated "Serbian" cities, according to some sources, the second largest (after Belgrade) :D.

                    I didn't know that, but awesome fact! There's a lot of people in Chicago from Eastern-European descent (we have a Greektown in the west of downtown), but I'd say it's majorly a melting pot of various other cultures around the globe. A cluster of Swedish population live north of the city and Italian all over.

There's a lot of people in Chicago from Eastern-European descent (we have a Greektown in the west of downtown), but I'd say it's majorly a melting pot of various other cultures around the globe. A cluster of Swedish population live north of the city and Italian all over.

                    Yeah, many Serbian people live abroad, so we have a huge diaspora. Therefore, there are Serbian Orthodox churches in many of the places the Serbian live. I know there are numerous nationalities in the whole USA, not only in Chicago, and there are, probably, people from every single country living in the US. By the way, Greece is in Southern Europe, not Eastern :).

                    Lisbon, Portugal, is one the list however I don't want to go back to Spain for a little while. I at least want to do 5 seasons before going back to any countries that were visited in seasons 1-3! I do think the next time Portugal is on the list it will be Maderia.

                    Wow that is very good! Love that idea however knowing the backlash from the Double Elimination would probably just replace it, and cancel the leg 2 NEL but this is amazing (pun intended)!!  :cheer:

                    I haven't made a wishlist route in a while. Luckily a lot of what I made a few years ago actually ended up in 32 (Manaus, Kazakhstan, Hyderabad, Siem Reap, New Orleans). Anyways, here is my TAR 34 Route (in a hypothetical that things are fine enough in these areas in the world, since who knows).

                    TAR 34:
                    1. Busan, South Korea (Fly into Seoul at 4:20/4:50am, get clue to take train to someplace in central South Korea, then after that task take a train to Busan.)
                    2. Kathmandu, Nepal
                    3. Mountainous Nepal
                    4. Ankara, Turkey 
                    5. Kiev, Ukraine
                    6. Odessa, Ukraine (via train)
                    7. Naples, Italy
                    8. Port Elizabeth, South Africa
                    9. Port Elizabeth, South Africa (both legs in the general region)
                    10. Montevideo, Uruguay
                    11. Santiago, Chile
                    12. Miami, USA

                    Edit: I decided to look at the most recent wishlist before this and see some similarities lol

                    I do like these however a 6 continent race is so overdue, and I do like double legs however seeing S32 with no double leg countries I am really loving the idea of seeing more of the world and visiting more (11-13) countries in one season (rather than the 9-10).

                    I am interested to see that there has been some discussion about an all-winners season. I also think there is ample opportunity to do an Unfinished Business season. So I thought I'd post here and see what people think of my lists and who they think I've missed out / would be likely to be asked!

                    For an all-winners, I think the most likely to be asked are:
                    1. Rob & Brennan
                    2. Flo & Zach
                    3. Chip & Kim
                    4. BJ & Tyler
                    5. Nick & Starr
                    6. Tammy & Victor
                    7. Meghan & Cheyne
                    8. Nat & Kat
                    9. Kisha & Jen
                    10. Ernie & Cindy
                    11. Josh & Brent
                    12. Dave & Connor
                    13. Amy & Maya
                    14. Kelsey & Joey
                    15. Brooke & Scott
                    16. Colin & Christie

                    I have a calculated guess as to who wins 32, no spoilers allowed here, but believe they would be asked for sure.
                    The other couples have either split or were less exciting, but am interested to see if others disagree with this list. I think there is a good cast here. But won't be 50% BIPOC, likely even if you include LGBTQI+ so that could prove tough.

                    As for Unfinished Business, I have gone from 25-32 for teams, however there are three teams that stand-out as teams the producers wanted back for 18 or 24, but either couldn't get or had to withdraw. They could upset the apple cart for an Unfinished Business for sure!

                    1. Brook & Claire (17)
                    2. Bopper & Mark (20)
                    3. Tim & Marie (23)

                    Now to the 25-32 teams:

                    4. Adam & Bethany (25) - fell behind at final roadblock
                    5. Kym & Alli (25) - fast forward mistake cost them
                    6. Shelley & Nici (25) - less likely - got lost in Morocco
                    7. Hayley & Blair (26) - fell behind after Hayley's mistake at roadblock
                    8. Justin & Diana (27) - cab left them on final leg, couldn't make up mere minutes
                    9. Tiffany & Krista (27) - eliminated on penultimate leg after Krista's mistakes at roadblock
                    10. Denise & James Earl (27) - cab driver took them to wrong pitstop Leg 9, couldn't make up error next leg
                    11. Ernest & Jin (27) - couldn't make up for lost time and being on the later bus to San Antonio de Areco
                    12. Sheri & Cole (28) - fell behind after Sheri's mistakes at jumping roadblock
                    13. Tyler & Korey (28-31) - so close on two occasions, time to seal the deal
                    14. Brodie & Kurt (28) - U-Turned out
                    15. Erin & Joslyn (28) - Erin's parachute wouldn't open on the side of the mountain
                    16. Matt & Redmond (29) - bad choice of transportation, choosing the metro in Seoul - fell behind
                    17. Becca & Floyd (29-31) - Floyd's heat stroke and later U-Turned out
                    18. Kristi & Jen (30) - fell behind at the final challenge despite being ahead
                    19. Alex & Conor (30) - eliminated on penultimate leg after confounding final challenge in Hong Kong
                    20. Lucas & Brittany (30) - passport loss
                    21. Chris & Bret (31) - eliminated in Croatia after challenging coin find Detour pushed them to last
                    22. Kaylynn & Haley (32) - double-Yield in India
                    23. Leo & Alana (32) - Yielded and bad Detour mistakes
                    24. Michelle & Victoria (32) - got lost in Paris

                    There are two other teams of the F4 in Season 32 who I believe would be asked back if they do indeed lose out...

                    @Kiwi Jay

                    for all winners I would really like: As for TAR32, none of them would get a call I think... Maybe if Hung and Chee win.

                    11 teams + 5 alternates (I realize with this list we really have a lot of options)


                    1) Rob & Brennan, TAR1 (They NEED to be there)
                    2) Chip & Kim, TAR 5
                    3) BJ & Tyler, TAR 9
                    4) Tammy & Victor, TAR 14
                    5) Dan & Jordan, TAR 16
                    6) Nat & Kat, TAR 17
                    7) Ernie & Cindy, TAR 19
                    8) Rachel & Dave, TAR 20 (They dominated would be great to see thema gain)
                    9) Jason & Amy, TAR 23 (They are low of my list, but we need one random team, and they would be a good fit)
                    10) Amy & Maya, TAR 25
                    11) Cody & Jessica, TAR 30 (I'm sure CBS would want that)

                    Alternates:

                    - Uchenna & Joyce, TAR 7 (I don't remember if it's them or Chip and Kim who divorced, but maybe they could race as ex)
                    - Nick and Starr, TAR 13 (If Victor and Tammy can't)
                    - Kisha & Jen, TAR 18 (Already race twiced, so I guess if one of the two F/F can't, they would be a good alternate
                    - Josh & Brent, TAR 21 (for redemption?)
                    - Brooke & Scott, TAR 29

                    1. Brook & Claire (17)
                    2. Bopper & Mark (20)
                    3. Tim & Marie (23)

                    Now to the 25-32 teams:

                    4. Adam & Bethany (25) - fell behind at final roadblock
                    5. Kym & Alli (25) - fast forward mistake cost them
                    6. Shelley & Nici (25) - less likely - got lost in Morocco
                    7. Hayley & Blair (26) - fell behind after Hayley's mistake at roadblock
                    8. Justin & Diana (27) - cab left them on final leg, couldn't make up mere minutes
                    9. Tiffany & Krista (27) - eliminated on penultimate leg after Krista's mistakes at roadblock
                    10. Denise & James Earl (27) - cab driver took them to wrong pitstop Leg 9, couldn't make up error next leg
                    11. Ernest & Jin (27) - couldn't make up for lost time and being on the later bus to San Antonio de Areco
                    12. Sheri & Cole (28) - fell behind after Sheri's mistakes at jumping roadblock
                    13. Tyler & Korey (28-31) - so close on two occasions, time to seal the deal
                    14. Brodie & Kurt (28) - U-Turned out
                    15. Erin & Joslyn (28) - Erin's parachute wouldn't open on the side of the mountain
                    16. Matt & Redmond (29) - bad choice of transportation, choosing the metro in Seoul - fell behind
                    17. Becca & Floyd (29-31) - Floyd's heat stroke and later U-Turned out
                    18. Kristi & Jen (30) - fell behind at the final challenge despite being ahead
                    19. Alex & Conor (30) - eliminated on penultimate leg after confounding final challenge in Hong Kong
                    20. Lucas & Brittany (30) - passport loss
                    21. Chris & Bret (31) - eliminated in Croatia after challenging coin find Detour pushed them to last
                    22. Kaylynn & Haley (32) - double-Yield in India
                    23. Leo & Alana (32) - Yielded and bad Detour mistakes
                    24. Michelle & Victoria (32) - got lost in Paris

                    There are two other teams of the F4 in Season 32 who I believe would be asked back if they do indeed lose out...

                    I agree with your first 3 on that list, and the 8 others I would want to see from your (very good) list are: (I feel team fun and Tyler/Korey already got their second chance)

                    1. Brook & Claire (17)
                    2. Bopper & Mark (20)
                    3. Tim & Marie (23)
                    4. Adam & Bethany (25)
                    5. Kym & Alli (25)
                    6. Justin & Diana (27)

                    I had a really weird idea for a season. What if all the teams competed for charities. I know that no matter what place a team gets on the show, they still get $. So what if for a season, they got celebrities, a mix of people from like acting and maybe youtube again, and had them compete for a charity. That way people wouldnt complain like they did when The Mole did it. They wouldn't be competing for themselves and the whole "But they already have a lot of money" wouldn't matter. Each place before the final leg could get like X cash and then the winners gets a million dollars donated to the charity of their choosing.

                    The idea of Antarctica being visited has often been a fun idea. I always assumed that if it actually happened, it would likely be an Asia-Europe-SA-Antarctica route with various non-flying legs (for cost purposes to cover for Antarctica). Here is one I created with that.

                    1. Busan, South Korea
                    2. Fukuoka, Japan (via ferry)
                    3. Sapporo, Japan (via train and ferry)
                    4. Vientiane, Laos
                    5. Northeastern Thailand (via bus/car, cross country via First Thai–Lao Friendship Bridge)
                    6. Doha, Qatar
                    7. Sardinia, Italy
                    8. Rome, Italy (via ferry to mainland then car or something else to Rome)
                    9. Buenos Aires, Argentina
                    10. Ushuaia, Argentina
                    11. King George Island, Antarctica
                    12. Miami, USA

                    Greetings all, I’m a longtime fan and first-time poster to the boards.  My oldest daughter and I hope to audition for a future TAR season once the pandemic has run its course and we’re all able to return to a more normal life.

                    I’d like to offer my thoughts on some proposed destinations and potential tweaks to the “race course.”  I’ll qualify my posting by letting everyone know that I’ve missed several seasons of TAR during its run and am now in the process of “catching up” by binge-watching with my wife.  So if I mention something below that was done in a season I either missed or have forgotten, please don’t beat me up too hard.


                    Starting Leg: St. Louis, Missouri, USA 🇺🇸
                    Leg 1: USA > London, England, U.K. 🇬🇧
                    ...
                    Leg 12: Bolivia > Indianapolis, Indiana, USA 🇺🇸


                    First, I agree 100% with justmjlayson about featuring St Louis, Missouri on the program, either as a start or finish line.  St Louis has a lot of places that would provide opportunity for teams to do tasks that are similar to other seasons, that would also put a “local” stamp on the specific task.  Same for Kansas City.  It might be worth considering having multiple legs in the USA, especially towards the end, since that could fan the flames of speculation and maybe increase interest in the show.https://forum.realityfanforum.com/Smileys/classic/Picture_263.gif

                    To be honest, I’d like to see TAR visit some states that it hasn’t visited yet.  Perhaps they could start looking at cities that aren’t major metropolises, yet have a significant history and some unique aspects that might make for good TV.  Two examples I can think of are Omaha Nebraska (maybe something at Boys Town or film during the College World Series – starting the race right before a game or the championship series) and Colorado Springs, Colorado (Detour or Road Block at the Air Force Academy and another task involving the area’s mining history -- or maybe a drive up Pike's Peak to get a clue from the box).  I'm sure there are a lot of similarly-sized cities that would also make great start, end, or waypoints.

                    Now, time to get back to looking at the other boards….https://forum.realityfanforum.com/Smileys/classic/a020.gif

                    Teams having to find their own flights. Even if it ends up being the same flight, I like when they had to do it theirselves. If not, the race is just a live action video game where getting off the flight is a start of a level.

                    Frozen inside so here's a fantasy route aiming at what TAR 25 tried for, accounting for it being 2020something whenever filming starts.

                    START - Catalina Is., CA
                    LEG 1 - Catalina Is., CA (it's kind of a trend for international seasons to have leg 1 in the start city so I don't see why that can't happen with TAR US, especially with a leg 1 NEL)
                    LEG 2 - Taipei, Taiwan
                    LEG 3 - Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei
                    LEG 4 - Temburong, Brunei (I think to justify a Brunei visit, both in terms of cost and maybe bureaucracy you would need two legs)
                    LEG 5 - Mombasa, Kenya (I choose to assume that the world would be unproblematic enough that this wouldn't be a problem  :tup:)
                    LEG 6 - Valletta, Malta
                    LEG 7 - Djerba, Tunisia (see leg 5)
                    LEG 8 - Almere, Netherlands
                    LEG 9 - St. Joris Bay, Curacao
                    LEG 10A - Vinales, Cuba (i mean if we can have legs in uganda or bogota...)
                    LEG 10B - Havana, Cuba (yes it's a megaleg and while the name is dumb, I like the TAR 14 scenario of having a long leg determine the F3)
                    LEG 11 - Nantucket Is., MA (while Miami would be easier, I feel like this season lends itself to a more unique finish line :) )

                    I’m not sure where to put this but I guess this is the closest

                    If there wasn’t a pandemic and TAR AUS 5 went as they originally planned (international) then I would’ve liked something like this. They said that they were looking into Brazil, Europe, and India before things got bad. Using that and the 2 episodes per week format, this is what my wishlist would’ve been from it:

                    (Filmed in winter on northern hemisphere)
                    1. Santiago, Chile
                    2. Mendoza, Argentina
                    3. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
                    4. Brazil (somewhere near Rio but not used in US TAR)
                    5. Munich, Germany
                    6. Vienna, Austria
                    7. Athens, Greece
                    8. Greece (driving outside of Athens)
                    9. Mumbai, India
                    10. Pune, India
                    11. Male, Maldives
                    12. Sydney, Australia

                    Leg 3: Sydney, Australia --> Alice Springs, Australia
                    Leg 4: Alice Springs, Australia --> Chhukha, Bhutan
                    Leg 5: Chhukha, Bhutan --> Rishikesh, India
                    Leg 6: Rishikesh, India --> Nairobi, Kenya

                    Here is mine. This is definitely a US states edition where teams are able to race around the states this time, instead of families. This is a 14-team race where there is no stowaways, no First Class Pass, and no T-Junction. We can normalize this season as U-Turns, Yields, Fast Forwards, etc.

                    Starting Line: Houston, Texas
                    Leg 1: Texas > Baton Rouge, Louisiana
                    Leg 2: Louisiana > Little Rock, Arkansas
                    Leg 3: Arkansas > Montgomery, Alabama
                    Leg 4: Alabama > Nashville, Tennessee
                    Leg 5: Nashville > Memphis, Tennessee
                    Leg 6: Tennessee > Cincinnati, Ohio
                    Leg 7: Ohio > Grand Rapids, Michigan
                    Leg 8: Michigan > Chicago, Illinois
                    Leg 9: Illinois > Minneapolis, Minnesota
                    Leg 10: Minnesota > Keystone, South Dakota
                    Leg 11: South Dakota > Fargo, North Dakota
                    Leg 12: North Dakota > Boise, Idaho
                    Leg 13: Idaho > Salt Lake City, Utah
                    Leg 14: Utah > Albuquerque, New Mexico
                    Leg 15: New Mexico > Las Vegas, Nevada
                    Leg 16: Nevada > Aspen, Colorado

                    I think a domestic season would be great for the US!!
                    Here is my route:
                    Leg-1 (California)
                    Leg-2 (California → Nevada)
                    Leg-3 (Nevada)
                    Leg-4 (Nevada → Arizona)
                    Leg-5 (Arizona → Utah)
                    Leg-6 (Utah → Colorado)
                    Leg-7 (Colorado → South Dakota)
                    Leg-8 (South Dakota → Minnesota)
                    Leg-9 (Minnesota → Wisconsin)
                    Leg-10 (Wisconsin → Illinois)

                    Leg-15 (Virginia → Georgia)
                    Leg-16 (Georgia → Florida)
                    More details:

                    Leg-1:   Los Angeles, CA
                    Lots of different approaches can be taken here, but i think a Hollywood and pop culture themed leg would fit great here!

                    Leg-2:   Los Angeles, CA → Lake Tahoe, CA/NV
                    Head north and do some challenges in the lake and mountains and have the pitstop in nevada. The scenery this leg would be WOW!

                    Leg-3:   Lake Tahoe, NV → Las Vegas, NV
                    Super high energy bustling night leg on the strip!

                    Leg-4:   Las Vegas, NV → Grand Canyon National Park, AZ
                    Different tasks in the dessert and canyons, obviously some kind of rappelling or rock climbing!

                    Leg-5:   Grand Canyon National Park, AZ → Park City, UT
                    Salt Lake dont have much to offer IMO, so go to park city for snow themed challenges!

                    Leg-6:   Park City, UT → Colorado Springs, CO
                    Air Force Academy and rafting are musts and other mountain themed kind of tasks!

                    Leg-7:   Colorado Springs, CO → Rapid City/Keystone, SD
                    First part of the leg in Rapid City, back half at mount rushmore paying homage to presidents!!

                    Leg-8:   Rapid City/Keystone, SD → Minneapolis/Lake Minnetonka, MN
                    Most of the leg in Minneapolis, cool hockey task maybe? and then head to Lake Minnetonka for lake tasks (mail delivery: search it up)

                    Leg-9:   Minneapolis/Lake Minnetonka, MN → Green Bay, WI
                    Cheese, farms, and football!!

                    Leg-10: Green Bay, WI → Chicago, IL
                    Leg paying homage to the Windy City, game of street ball would be cool, and have teams travel by the sky trains!

                    Leg-11: Chicago, IL → Indianapolis, Indiana
                    Obviously Indy challenge, and other things to do with Indiana!

                    Leg-12: Indianapolis, Indiana → Louisville, Kentucky
                    Kentucky Derby and southern themed challenges, bbq would be cool or chicken!!

                    Leg-13: Louisville, Kentucky → Richmond, VA
                    DK a lot about the city, but could be a pretty good leg!

                    Leg-14: Richmond, VA → Virginia Beach, VA
                    Beach tasks obviously!

                    Leg-15: Virginia Beach, VA → Atlanta, GA
                    Penultimate leg with lots of energy paying homage to the art scene and other cultural parts of Georgia!

                    Leg-16: Atlanta, GA → Orlando, FL
                    DISNEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
                    and if not just find other theme parks or what not!

                    There's a lot of historic buildings there like former tobacco processing facilities from the late 30s, but most of those have been converted into apartments or since been left to deteriorate. I'd definitely vouch for the Research Triangle in North Carolina as a destination though.

                    My Amazing Race All-Star Cast

                    Kym & Ali (S25)`
                    Mike & Rochelle (S26)^
                    Justin & Diana (S27)
                    Krista & Tiffany (S27)*
                    Densie & James Earl (S27)
                    Matt & Redmond (S29)
                    Kristi & Jen (S30)
                    Lucas & Brittany (S30)
                    Chris & Bret (S31)
                    Kaylynn & Haley (S32)~
                    Leo & Alana (S32)

                    `replacement would be Corinne & Eliza (S31)
                    ^replacement would be Tara & Joey (S29)
                    *replacement would be Victoria & Michelle (S32)
                    ~replacement would be Shelley & Nici (S25)

                    MM = 2
                    FM = 5
                    FF = 4

                    This was a difficult considering we have so great teams since the last "all-stars". I will probably have to drop one or two for S33 however, until then this is my cast!

                    I want to see Canada on the American TAR! I think it would be amazing, a good change of pace.
                    Small towns/cities in Canada would be awesome to see.

                    I think S34 would be All Winners! Since CBS would most likely go all out on this I thought I would create a 7 continent race!

                    Leg 1: Orlando, FL --> Nassau, Bahamas
                    This is a very short distance for the first leg however I think that a switchback to S15 The Leap of Faith waterside would be a great 1st leg challenge, since it is water and heights. Also, Bahamas would be a new country!

                    Leg 2: Bahamas --> Montevideo, Uruguay
                    It has been 27 seasons since they have been to Uruguay it is time for a revisit! Also, most of the S5 leg as in Punta del Este, so having a full leg in Montevideo would be great!

                    Leg 3: Uruguay --> Ushuaia, Argentina
                    It has been since S11 that they have gone to Ushuaia, and that was for only half a leg (which was not even in the city). It is time that Ushuaia gets a full leg!

                    Leg 4: Argentina --> Punta Arenas, Chile --> King George Island, Antarctica
                    In order to take a charter flight to Antarctica you have to go through Punta Arenas. Since you only get a limited time (a few hours) in Antarctica teams will only have one challenge in Chile and Antarctica each. During the Pit Stop teams will be transported back to Chile.

                    Leg 5: Chile --> Cape Town, South Africa
                    They haven't been to South Africa since S7! It needs such a revisit. Cape Town was last visited in S2, and was for only half a leg, so we need a full leg!

                    Leg 6: South Africa --> Luanda & Calandula, Angola
                    Angola is a country that I am surprised has never been visited. The first part of the leg would be in Luanda (I love a good city task), and then teams would sign up for charter buses (maybe planes) to a unknown location which is the Quedas de Kalandula. These waterfalls are beautiful, and a jungle theme task would be cool. The Pit Stop would be the iconic waterfalls! Also during the Leg 6 Pit Stop teams will be transported back to Luanda!

                    Leg 7: Angola --> Dublin, Ireland
                    Ireland needs a revisit, and Dublin needs a visit. I would love a Irish themed leg in Dublin! Dublin is somewhere I have always wanted to go!

                    Leg 8: Ireland --> Budapest, Hungary
                    Even though there are so many countries in Eastern Europe that need to be visited, and would make a great visit I need another Budapest leg. I need so badly a Spicy Soup switchback! I want to see the winners crapping their pants, at the thought of having to eat a huge bowl of this soup!

                    Leg 9: Hungary --> Jakarta, Indonesia
                    Even though Indonesia is a country that has been visited a good amount I would like a Jakarta leg since they have never visited the city, and a good chaotic city leg would be great! I mean a city that has 10 million people in Asia is going to make a good leg!

                    Leg 10: Indonesia --> Melbourne, Australia
                    Now we have reached 7 continents! Also, a much needed revisited to Australia, and a visit for the first time to Melbourne! Melbourne is a city the race needs to go to so badly! I think this would be a great leg if they do it right!

                    Leg 11: Hobert, Australia
                    This leg was originally going to be Fiji however I thought that we had a Bahamas leg, so we didn't need another island beach leg. I also did think about Queenstown, NZ, and the Nelson bungee jump being a great penultimate leg task however I thought that Tasmania needed a visit more. I hope they do some hard challenges during this leg to see if 3 out of the 4 teams can deserve a spot in the final leg!

                    Leg 12: Australia --> Seattle, Washington
                    I thought that a Seattle visit is overdue, and that it would be beautiful in March (since the race would start in February)! I would love to see some sort of memory Roadblock like S12 were it would be very difficult, and take teams maybe hours to solve! Also, not LA or NY so I would be very happy! Also, was thinking maybe the first challenge could be in Vancouver, and teams would fly from Australia to Vancouver then drive 2.5 hours down to Seattle; that is just something to think about!

                    I think this could be possible however if it happens the chance is probably 40%. I mean this season is supposed to be the best one, they would need to do it right with everything including promotion!

                    The distance according to Google Maps Measured Distance Feature rounded to the nearest thousand would be: 38,000 mi (62,000 km)! This would be one of the longest routes of the show! S5's is actually around 45,000 mi according to Google Maps. I really don't know how they got 72,000 mi. Also, they are a lot more accurate now with S32 actually being around 31,000 mi instead of 33,000 mi.

                    Twist Idea: The Red Light Card.

                    It is either awarded to the team that gets first in the first leg instead of an express pass or like the express pass in the American TAR Season 25, an optional side task that the first team to complete will earn. The  team that earns that card can use it at any detour where there is not a u-turn ahead. (maybe it says specifically on the teams route info at a start of the leg if they can use it or not). When the team arrives at the marked box or they are handed with the clue that has the detour options, they can play/write on the red light card: the team of their choosing and the detour option. That team is now not allowed to do that detour option and can only do the other.

                    Example in use
                    Team A completes a bonus task in Leg 1 and get the Redlight card
                    During Leg 4, they reach the clue box and when they look at their clue, it is a detour option. One task is more strength and the other is more mental.
                    Team A writes down Team B's names on the red light card AND the detour option they think that Team B would excel at, the mental option.
                    When Team B arrives at the clue box, they discover that they can only do the strength option of the detour options
                    PS I: If Team B has already passed the box, they can not be impacted by the red light card, even if they switch detours
                    PS II: If a person hands the detour clue, they will also hand the red light card.
                    PS III: A red light card can not be assigned once the team with the card arrives at their own detour choice as to make things fair for the game.

                    What do you peeps think? Is there potential? Could it be a better Yield system?

                    It has been done on the Amazing Race Canada, but its like a U-turn board, where whoever gets their first gets to "one way" a team.

                    I think that it would just be easier and a simpler option to just have a One Way, but still cool concept.

                    Not sure if it has been mentioned, but what if every team is given one Express Pass to use at any task (except at the FF, and maybe at a Head-to-Head that is placed right in front of the pit stop)?

                    There should be some kind of downside to using the Express Pass. My fear with that is what if leg 2, one team uses their express pass, and then every other team in leg 3 uses their express passes on a roadblock, thus screwing over the team mentioned in leg two. Maybe like the next leg after they use their express pass, they have to do a speed bump? Something to balance the express pass and make teams genuinely debate if they should use it or limit its uses further like not being able to use them on detours with U-turn boards.


                    Now for place suggestions, I'd love to have a leg in Swaziland, even if it's like Botswana on the first season of the show where teams can choose to do a detour that takes them into that country while the rest of the leg is primarily in South Africa.

                    Tar 34, a realistic route in my eyes...

                    Startline: Los Angeles, California 🇺🇸

                    1. San José, Sarchí & La Paz Waterfall, Costa Rica 🇨🇷
                    2. La Fortuna & Monterverde, Costa Rica 🇨🇷
                    3. Cancún, Tulum & Chitchen Itza, Mexico 🇲🇽
                    4. Madrid, Spain 🇪🇸
                    5. Ibiza & Formentera, Spain 🇪🇸
                    6. Stockholm, Sweden 🇸🇪
                    7. Muscat, Jebel Shams & Nizwa, Oman 🇴🇲
                    8. Muscat, Oman 🇴🇲
                    9. Kotor, Montenegro 🇲🇪
                    10. Mostar & Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina 🇧🇦
                    11. Newfoundland, Canada 🇨🇦

                    Not sure if it has been mentioned, but what if every team is given one Express Pass to use at any task (except at the FF, and maybe at a Head-to-Head that is placed right in front of the pit stop)?

                    There should be some kind of downside to using the Express Pass. My fear with that is what if leg 2, one team uses their express pass, and then every other team in leg 3 uses their express passes on a roadblock, thus screwing over the team mentioned in leg two. Maybe like the next leg after they use their express pass, they have to do a speed bump?

                    The first point you mentioned is quite interesting. I did not think about that. However, the EP is not a guarantee against finishing last, so the likelihood of that happening is low, unless the task is seriously difficult.



                    Two things to add to my wishlist

                    1. Scrap 1st leg eliminations. Let them race for at least 2 legs. For TAR33, the first London leg should have been a NEL or a KOR with sign-up sheets for the first task of Leg 2.
                    2. Scrap start line eliminations. Teams that finish last should either have a Speed Bump/Hazard (why even create a new term for something that's essentially the same) to complete or mark them for elimination on the first elimination leg.

                    Given the, uh, interesting, circumstances in which we live, here's my vaguely realistic take on TAR34-

                    START - Palm Springs, CA
                    LEG 1 - Galapagos Is., Ecuador
                    LEG 2 - Cuenca, Ecuador
                    LEG 3 - Halifax, Canada
                    LEG 4 - Magdalen Is., Canada
                    LEG 5 - Dublin, Ireland
                    LEG 6 - Toulouse, France
                    LEG 7 - Ondino, Andorra
                    LEG 8 - Barcelona, Spain
                    LEG 9 - Santa Maria, Cape Verde
                    LEG 10 - Praia, Cape Verde
                    LEG 11A/11B - Boston, MA / Berkshires region, MA

                    Most of these countries have relatively low infection and/or high vaccination rates and less restrictive conditions for entry :tup: The multiple new countries wasn't intentional but it worked out I suppose  :jam:

                    Leg 5: San Marino --> Kotor, Montenegro
                    Leg 6: Montenegro --> Skopje, Northern Macedonia

                    Leg 11: Vancouver, Canada
                    Leg 12: Canada --> Seattle, WA, United States

                    Continents: 2
                    Countries: 8
                    Distance Traveled: 10,000 mi (16,000 km)

                    Here is another TAR34 route that I think it possible with some new countries and longer travel distance

                    Starting City: New York City, NY
                    Leg 1: United States --> Nassau, Bahamas
                    Leg 2: Bahamas --> Dublin, Ireland

                    Leg 4: Ireland --> Pisa, Italy
                    Leg 5: Italy --> San Marino
                    Leg 6: San Marino --> Skopje, Northern Macedonia
                    Leg 7: Bitola, Northern Macedonia
                    Leg 8: Northern Macedonia --> Toulouse, France
                    Leg 9: France --> Andorra

                    Leg 11: Vancouver, Canada

                    Hybrid teams that I don't mind seeing on the race

                    - Christina and Azaria -> Met on TAR12 and are now married.
                    - Brendon and Elissa -> Brother-in-law / Sister-in-law (Perhaps they would be more liked if Rachel is out of the picture)
                    - TAR29 Logan dated another cast member from that season, so maybe the two of them together

                    I have a question for people in this thread since there hasn't been much posted in a while.

                    What is somewhere that you think would be a great START LINE or FINISH LINE within the United States? Not just the city but the specific landmark.

                    Any wishes for starts or finishes??

                    Super biased but I'll go for an old favourite of mine for a dream finish line: Warren G Magnuson park in Seattle. Lots of big open spaces for those wide angles, overlooking Lake Washington with Mt Rainier looming in the background.

                    My dream finish is teams going to Washington DC and eventually being told to either run across Key Bridge or kayak to Theodore Roosevelt Island (https://npplan.com/parks-by-state/washington-d-c-national-parks/theodore-roosevelt-island-park-at-a-glance/).  :jam:

                    I'm also surprised there has not yet been a start OR finish at La Brea (https://tarpits.org/).

                    A potential more realistic TAR34 route

                    START - you know where
                    LEG 1 - Guadalajara, Mexico
                    LEG 2 - Tequila, Mexico
                    LEG 3 - Alajeula and Cartago, Costa Rica
                    LEG 4 - Samana Bay, Dominican Republic
                    LEG 5 - Akureyi, Iceland
                    LEG 6 - Myvatn, Iceland
                    LEG 7 - Lake Bled, Slovenia
                    LEG 8 - Postojna, Slovenia
                    LEG 9 - Petra National Park, Jordan
                    LEG 10 - Madaba, Jordan
                    LEG 11 - Gibraltar, UK
                    LEG 12 - Niagara Falls, NY

                    Many of those double legs can be combined into single legs if they insist on 11 leg seasons from now on  :duno: 3/7 new countries (4 if you count Gibraltar as 'new') was unintentional but these are literally the only countries open without restrictions (and Gibraltar) right now so

                    I'd love to see the teams to go to The Gambia. It's one of safest countries on the African continent and the culture is so interesting. Idk I just always love seeing legs in Africa (When Kendra or a similar type of contestant isn't competing there). Growing up, my high school often overlooked the history and culture of Africa except for ancient Egypt, which is a shame since the cultures and histories of Africa are so diverse and interesting.

                    Banjul would've been a cool place to visit sometime during the twenties' seasons if there hadn't been the Ebola outbteaks of the mid-2010s.

                    Thanks! I heard about this place on Reddit and figured I would check it out. Forum seems pretty nice and friendly so far. Also here's a full list of countries that have not been visited by American TAR as far as I know (Havent seen any spoilers) that I would love to see them visit one day. (Fyi I do not know how safe each country is since I am not good with global politics/news so sorry if I unknowingly suggest a dangerous country)

                    Africa
                    The Gambia
                    Cote d'Ivoire

                    Given the excess of Europe over the past two seasons (10 legs in 33 and what appears to be 8 legs in 34), I have come up with some routes for 35 and 36 that feature countries mainly outside of Europe that they have wanted to visit in recent times and all with the ability to fly from point A to point B in under 3,200 nautical miles (which it has been alleged is the furthest the 757 from Titan Airlines can fly to).

                    I thought of a starting line task if the show ever has a season where the starting line is in Washington D.C. (or it can work in other countries depending on what's offered at city).

                    Teams will open their clue to find a flag on their paper and the instructions
                    "Find the embassy that represents this country" and will have to decipher what country's flag it is as well as where the embassy for said country is. Arrival at the embassy results in getting flight tickets with the last place team getting a speed bump. Maybe 7 first, 5 second flight or 6, 6.

                    Here's a example.
                    Joe and Jane open their clue and they see the flag. They drive to a nearby gas station and ask a customer there to use their phone to find out what country the flag represents. To make it interesting, lets say its a flag of a country never visited on the American version of TAR. Dominica. Teams then have to use a map (can ask for instructions but not a taxi to drive them there) to find the Dominican embassy. Arriving there 1-7th gets them on flight 1. 8-12th gets them on flight 2 and last place = speed bump before getting to do a roadblock or detour.

                    Maybe it's just me, but I feel like a lot of teams (Not all) will often overlook the cultural aspects of a country because they are in rush mode. Some of the most challenging roadblocks for teams have been details that the often forget to pay attention to, like the Tea Taste Test in 18 or Hello/Goodbye in 21. Also I have a flag bias because there really are some cools flags like the one for Dominica.

                    What do you all think? Interesting twist to the formulaic "Drive to the airport first" routine?

                    The former looks much better than the latter besides some minor adjustments like going to Dunedin instead of the North Island and Tasmania rather than a second leg in Victoria because there remain too many unvisited major South American cities such as Guayaquil, Iquitos, Concepcion, and Tucuman.

                    Probably on par with getting eliminated at the starting line because you couldn't find the right license plate. That's also why I suggested a speed bump for the penalty because I just generally assume a team can handle one (American TAR S27 spoiler for anyone that hasn't seen it)
                    Show content
                    That isn't having to do a roadblock twice.
                    Some of the speedbumps that aren't accomplished usually happen because of factors outside of the actual speed bump itself like being lost or struggling with a detour/roadblock.

                    Here's my first attempt at a 'season' of locations. For my countries, I only considered countries rated 40 or higher (out of 100) on the Safety Index for Tourists. I hope this is a really good season. I tried to avoid the 4-4-3 pattern from American TAR (4 Europe, 4 Asia, 3 extra like Africa, South America, ect) ALSO i do not know many of things going on politically and globally so I deeply apologize if one of the countries I list is currently having a civil war or something else that could threaten the safety of the competitors.

                    Leg 1: Washington, DC --> La Paz, Bolivia
                    Leg 2: La Paz, Bolivia --> Valencia, Spain
                    Leg 3: Valencia, Spain --> Barcelona, Spain (Train)
                    Leg 4: Barcelona, Spain --> Heraklion, Greece
                    Leg 5: Heraklion, Greece --> Nairobi, Kenya
                    Leg 6: Nairobi, Kenya
                    Leg 7: Nairobi, Kenya --> Port Louis, Mauritius
                    Leg 8: Port Louis, Mauritius --> Colombo, Sri Lanka
                    Leg 9: Colombo, Sri Lanka --> Kandy, Sri Lanka (Bus and Train)
                    Leg 10: Colombo, Sri Lanka (For airport) --> Osaka, Japan
                    Leg 11: Osaka, Japan --> Vancouver, Canada
                    Leg 12: Vancouver, Canada --> Minneapolis, Minnesota (USA)

                    Final Memory Challenge Idea: 2nd Roadblock so one specific team member would have to do it on each team. Memory challenge of the flags but with a twist.
                    Each person doing the last road block before the pitstop will have to make 9 Dream Catchers. Instructions will be provided for each team member on how to create a dream catcher. However they have to make a dream catcher to match every country they visited on the Amazing Race (Including USA).

                    E.X.
                    First, they have to pick the colors that can be seen on each country's flag (can not look up hints or look at previously taken notes)
                    Then there will be specific instructions for the design of the flags.

                    Let's Say Joe is making the Dream Catcher for Bolivia. First he needs to make sure he uses Red, Yellow, and Green materials (Like beads). Then he has to have the design be based on a provided chart.

                    If the flag consist only of vertical lines, attach 5 feathers.
                    If the flag consist only of horizontal lines, attach 3 feathers
                    If the flag has both vertical and horizontal lines, only attach 2 feathers.

                    And there could be other restrictions like the type of feathers that are allowed to be used per design and the inside design of the dream catcher webbing.

I tried to avoid the 4-4-3 pattern from American TAR (4 Europe, 4 Asia, 3 extra like Africa, South America, ect) ALSO i do not know many of things going on politically and globally so I deeply apologize if one of the countries I list is currently having a civil war or something else that could threaten the safety of the competitors.

                    Leg 1: Washington, DC --> La Paz, Bolivia
                    Leg 2: La Paz, Bolivia --> Valencia, Spain
                    Leg 3: Valencia, Spain --> Barcelona, Spain (Train)
                    Leg 4: Barcelona, Spain --> Heraklion, Greece
                    Leg 5: Heraklion, Greece --> Nairobi, Kenya
                    Leg 6: Nairobi, Kenya
                    Leg 7: Nairobi, Kenya --> Port Louis, Mauritius
                    Leg 8: Port Louis, Mauritius --> Colombo, Sri Lanka
                    Leg 9: Colombo, Sri Lanka --> Kandy, Sri Lanka (Bus and Train)
                    Leg 10: Colombo, Sri Lanka (For airport) --> Osaka, Japan
                    Leg 11: Osaka, Japan --> Vancouver, Canada
                    Leg 12: Vancouver, Canada --> Minneapolis, Minnesota (USA)

                    Final Memory Challenge Idea: 2nd Roadblock so one specific team member would have to do it on each team. Memory challenge of the flags but with a twist.
                    Each person doing the last road block before the pitstop will have to make 9 Dream Catchers. Instructions will be provided for each team member on how to create a dream catcher. However they have to make a dream catcher to match every country they visited on the Amazing Race (Including USA).

                    E.X.
                    First, they have to pick the colors that can be seen on each country's flag (can not look up hints or look at previously taken notes)
                    Then there will be specific instructions for the design of the flags.

                    Let's Say Joe is making the Dream Catcher for Bolivia. First he needs to make sure he uses Red, Yellow, and Green materials (Like beads). Then he has to have the design be based on a provided chart.

                    If the flag consist only of vertical lines, attach 5 feathers.
                    If the flag consist only of horizontal lines, attach 3 feathers
                    If the flag has both vertical and horizontal lines, only attach 2 feathers.

                    And there could be other restrictions like the type of feathers that are allowed to be used per design and the inside design of the dream catcher webbing.

                    In terms of marks, this idea is an A- only because the Spanish double overlaps too much with previous Catalonian visits and would be better suited for other destinations such as Bilbao and Madrid.

                    I'm waiting for a season where they have the finish line in a foreign country. Have it in a country where it would be difficult for teams to communicate with the locals. It'd be an intersting thing to see

                    Hi, this is my first time posting here. This is a concept for a potential TAR season that visits locations that should be visited (no charter planes involved). If you want, you can expand these concepts.
                    (Any of these legs could be NELs, I’m not good at coming up with tasks)
                    Starting Line: Hoover Dam

                    Leg 1: Las Vegas, US -> Vancouver, Canada
                    Leg 2: Vancouver -> Hobart, Australia
                    Leg 3: Hobart -> Perth, Australia (legs 2 and 3 might be a mega leg)
                    Leg 4: Perth -> Kyoto, Japan
                    Leg 5: Kyoto -> Kathmandu, Nepal
                    Leg 6: Nepal (another city, “keep racing”)
                    Leg 7: Nepal -> Alexandria, Egypt
                    Leg 8: Alexandria -> Lagos, Nigeria
                    Leg 9: Lagos -> Zagreb, Croatia
                    Leg 10: Zagreb -> Dublin, Ireland
                    Leg 11: Dublin -> Boston, US

                    Memory Challenge: At Fenway Park, teams must search for baseballs that have pictures of locations visited in the season stitched on them. They must arrange them in order from first to last. After that, teams can race to the finish line.
                    Finish Line: Boston Common
                    (I know, this season is all over the place)

                    If 2023 sees CBS/WRP retain COVID-19 protocols and the charter plane, here is my idea for routes for filming of the next two seasons. Charter planes have to stick to a particular area, so why not have Oceania-Asia-Hawaii for 36 and Africa-Middle East-Europe for 37. We are LONG overdue Oceania and Africa, and Asia will be in a better place next year to host legs.

                    Season 36 (filming May-June 2023)
                    1. Uluru and Alice Springs, Australia (start)
                    2. Melbourne, Australia
                    3. Auckland, New Zealand
                    4. Suva, Fiji
                    5. Nadi and Western Beaches, Fiji
                    6. Jakarta, Indonesia
                    7. Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
                    8. Kandy, Sri Lanka
                    9. Kathmandu, Nepal
                    10. Rural and Everest, Nepal
                    11. Da Nang, Vietnam
                    12. Honolulu, Hawaii, United States (finish)

                    Season 37 (filming October-November 2023)
                    1. Chefchaouen, Morocco (start)
                    2. Casablanca, Morocco
                    3. Banjul, The Gambia
                    4. Luanda, Angola
                    5. Cape Town, South Africa
                    6. Stellenbosch, South Africa
                    7. Nairobi, Kenya
                    8. Dubai, United Arab Emirates
                    9. Cappadocia, Turkey
                    10. Ljubljana, Slovenia
                    11. Dublin, Ireland
                    12. Boston, Massachusetts, United States (finish)

                    For those that welcome me, hello!

                    Here’s a “what if” for a season that stays entirely in the US (similar to a few TARCAN seasons).
                    Note: This is not a family edition, but this route is similar to it
                    (This route might be poorly designed, the first city before an arrow represents the airport that teams would be flying in)
                    Starting Line: Wrigley Field, Chicago, IL

                    Leg 1: Chicago -> Rural Wisconsin -> Minneapolis, MN (mega leg) Pit Stop: Mall of America
                    Leg 2: Minneapolis -> Rural Iowa      Pit Stop: some corn field in Iowa
                    Leg 3: Des Moines -> Saint Louis, MO           Pit Stop: Gateway Arch
                    Leg 4: St Louis -> Houston, TX (with NASA-inspired tasks)      Pit Stop: Astrodome
                    Leg 5: Houston -> Albuquerque/Roswell, NM       Pit Stop: Sandia Crest
                    Leg 6: Albuquerque -> Rural Nevada (Reno)  Pit Stop: Lake Tahoe (NV side)
                    Leg 7: Reno -> Charlotte, NC               Pit Stop: US National Whitewater Center
                    Leg 8: Charlotte -> Rural West Virginia     Pit Stop: Pricketts Fort State Park
                    Leg 9: Pittsburgh -> Northern Delaware/Maryland       Pit Stop: National Aquarium (was gonna have it be Fort Henry, but I already had a “fort” pit stop)
                    Leg 10: Baltimore -> Philadelphia, PA (keep racing, final leg, teams have to drive instead of using a plane)

                    Finish Line: Philadelphia Museum of Art
                    Final memory challenge at Fairmont Park would involve painting the states that racers visited during the race (IL, WI, MN, IA, MO, TX, NM, NV, NC, WV, PA, DE, and MD)
                    Yes, I did an American only season of TAR without visiting California or New York lol

                    3. Kym & Ali (S25)
                    4. Justin & Diana (S27)

                    8. Taylor & Isaiah (S33)
                    9. Emlly & Molly (S34)
                    10. Marcus & Michael (S34)
                    11. Abby & Will (S34)
                    12. BIPOC MF (S35)

                    MF - 6
                    FF - 3
                    MM - 3
                    Show content
                    The BIPOC MF from season 35 is Derek & Shelisa. Also, season 35 features 13 teams, so my 13th team would be Krista & Tiffany from S27. This bring the range to MF - 6; FF - 4; and MM - 3.

                    I’m gonna do another race route for TAR US, this one will be around the world

                    This hypothetical season would have 2 fast forwards (no head shaving) 2 head to heads, and 1 u-turn, with possibility to include a switchback somewhere

                    Starting Line: Jackson Square Park, New Orleans (You could alternatively have it in Cairo, a la TAR34/35
                    Leg 1: New Orleans -> Cairo, Egypt (Pit Stop: Pyramids of Giza)
                    Leg 2: Cairo -> Beirut, Lebanon (Pit Stop: Place de l’Etoile, if this country isn’t safe, it could be replaced by a leg in Israel, Jordan, or UAE)
                    Leg 3: Beirut -> Istanbul, Turkey (Pit Stop: Kiztasi, keep racing to leg 4)
                    Leg 4: Istanbul -> Santorini, Greece (Pit Stop: Santorini Folklore Museum)
                    Leg 5: Santorini -> Belgrade, Serbia (Pit Stop: Spomenik Desanki Maksimovic)
                    Leg 6: Belgrade -> Helsinki, Finland (Pit Stop: Esplanadi)
                    Leg 7: Helsinki -> Lulea, Sweden (keep racing from leg 6, Pit Stop: Mjolkuddsberget)
                    Leg 8: Lulea -> Pretoria, South Africa (Pit Stop: South African State Theatre)
                    Leg 9: Pretoria -> Manaus, Brazil (Pit Stop: Ponta des Lajes, overlooking the Rio Negro)
                    Leg 10: Manaus -> Belize City, Belize (Pit Stop: Belize Sign Monument)
                    Leg 11: Belize City -> San Antonio, Texas, United States
                    Final Leg tasks involve shooting basketballs at the Spurs arena, doing a memory task involving pit stops at the Tower of the Americas, and getting the final clue at the Riverwalk before running to the Finish Line.
                    Finish Line: The Historic Alamo (outside)
                    26,000 Miles, 5 Continents, 11 Countries (3 new)

                    This is a list of who I think should get a call for a returning teams 'unfinished business' season:

                    17:
                    Brook & Claire

                    23:
                    Tim & Marie

                    25:
                    Kym & Alli
                    Shelley & Nici
                    Adam & Bethany

                    26:
                    Hayley & Blair

                    27:
                    Justin & Diana
                    Tiffany & Krista
                    Denise & James Earl

                    28:
                    Sheri & Cole

                    30:
                    Kristi & Jen
                    Lucas & Brittany
                    Alex & Conor

                    31:
                    Chris & Bret

                    32:
                    Michelle & Victoria
                    Hung & Chee
                    Kaylynn & Haley
                    Leo & Alana

                    33: (would frankly be happy with any of the Final 6 being called)
                    Raquel & Cayla
                    Ryan & Dusty
                    Arun & Natalia
                    Taylor & Isaiah

                    34:
                    Emily & Molly
                    Marcus & Michael
                    Glenda & Lumumba
                    Abby & Will

                    Am interested to see how 35 alters this list.

                    I don't think they should invite 'legend' teams who have competed two or three times before, or previous winners. But I do have a good idea of who would be asked in those scenarios.

                    Ideas for new types of casting for seasons:
                    Game Changers (Power Players): featuring teams that are notable for “changing” the game in some way
                    Fans vs Favorites: Again, just like Survivor, 6 new teams vs 6 fan favorite veterans
                    US vs Canada (don’t know if this is possible, this can be either newbies, all stars, or both): similar to AUS3, there are 6 teams from the US and 6 from Canada competing for money (a variation of this is North vs South or East vs West, based on the cities that the teams live in)
                    A season that only visits ancient/historical places
                    A season featuring only first boots/2nd place teams/winners
                    Have 24/22 Survivor/BB all stars compete on TAR and vice versa
                    A season with only F/F teams (so that we can finally have a 4th f/f winning team)
                    A season with only alpha male teams
                    A season with only siblings or parent/child or husband/wife teams (teams of 2)
                    (Unlikely) A season with only BIPOC teams (though I’m afraid this might be controversial)
                    Have TAR 37/38 be an unfinished business season

                    These teams should be brought back (my opinion),
                    Kris/Jon (6), Eric/Jeremy (9), Charla/Mirna (5/11), Dustin/Kandace (10/11), Oswald/Danny (2/11), Brook/Claire (17), Bopper/Mark (20),
                    Adam/Bethany (25), Kym/Alli (25), Hayley/Blair (26), Justin/Diana (27), Brodie/Kurt (28), Matt/Redmond (29), Liz/Michael (29), Alex/Conor (30), Kristi/Jen (30), Chris/Bret (31), Nicole/Victor (31), Kaylynn/Haley (32), Hung/Chee (32), Taylor/Isaiah (33), Anthony/Spencer (33), Raquel/Cayla (33), Ryan/Dusty (33), Abby/Will (34), Marcus/Michael (34), Emily/Molly (34), (insert team here) (35)

                    Bring back the fast forward!

                    I want to see another route similar to S13. Regardless of where the locations would be, it's a unique way to circumnavigate the globe and has only been done once before.

                    I really want to see the race end in a foreign country. Maybe if the race has an All-Winners season, they could throw teams for a loop and have the race officially end in a country like South Korea or Singapore. Both challenging and difficult places to navigate and communicate, especially as teams are racing for a million bucks.

                    I want to see a 30 minute penalty enforced for NEL's. "Apparently" there are no more NEL, but I would love to see a penalty enforced for coming in last if they choose to keep them. Since teams are traveling via a private jet, I'd see the penalty enforced on the next available task. Just enough of a penalty to be a hinderance, but not enough to make you fall too far behind.

                    I want an All-Winners season and my (realistic) cast would like this:

                    Rob and Brennan
                    BJ and Tyler
                    Nick and Starr
                    Megan Cheyne
                    Dan and Jordan
                    Nat and Kat
                    Ernie and Cindy
                    Jason and Amy
                    Amy and Maya
                    Joey and Kelsey
                    Brooke and Scott
                    Colin and Christie

                    Realistically, Tammy and Victor would likely take Nick and Starr's spot because producers and Phil really seem to love S14 (even though it's terrible)

                    The greatest threat to any kind of all-winners edition will be the lack of BIPOC diversity.

                    The Race must always have 50% BIPOC diversity so teams like Chip & Kim, Tammy & Victor and Kisha & Jen would definitely be on their radar, if they were to do it. Uchenna & Joyce are divorced, but are friends and on good terms, and they expressed a desire to race again as friends. Other teams with BIPOC diversity are Nat & Kat, Ernie & Cindy, Jason & Amy, Amy & Maya and Derek & Claire. Possibly also Brooke & Scott, but not sure?

                    Rob & Brennan would be included. Probably a few from the recent circle like Will & James and Colin & Christie. As much as people like Meghan & Cheyne, I could see them missing out thanks to the above quota, and possibly also BJ & Tyler.

                    Below is 13 teams where half is BIPOC:

                    Rob & Brennan
                    Chip & Kim
                    Uchenna & Joyce
                    Tammy & Victor
                    Nat & Kat
                    Kisha & Jen
                    Ernie & Cindy
                    Jason & Amy
                    Amy & Maya
                    Brooke & Scott
                    Colin & Christie
                    Will & James
                    Derek & Claire

                    You could also remove Jason & Amy, Ernie & Cindy or less likely Derek & Claire for less MF teams and still 50% BIPOC with 12 teams overall.

                    Fans vs Favorites: Again, just like Survivor, 6 new teams vs 6 fan favorite veterans

                    I still really want to see a Fans and Favourites season.....Wherein 11 fans of the show appear at the starting line as single racers, and then it's revealed that each one will be partnered with a favourite racer from the show. One person might get paired with Jamal, one might get paired with Flight Time, etc...

                    I respectfully disagree - if the issue is that certain groups of people are underwhelming then the onus is on casting to cast better or somehow structure the race to reduce implicit bias for or against certain teams (ex not casting as many young M/M teams or not having a F/F team be asked to race in Saudi Arabia)

                    The mandate itself I don't see as an issue - TAR is built on pairs exploring the world and how their experiences and relationship inform that, and a more diverse cast lends itself to more diverse and meaningful perspectives; things like Gus's reaction at the House of Slaves or Natalie & Nadiya remarking on getting around in Bangladesh vs Russia come up because of their race and I think there's merit in casting to support that diversity of experience.

                    Onward, given how the departure times are staggered I wouldn't mind seeing the Yield (TAR32 version) appear again; if there's a continued focus on self-navigation as a way to separate the teams (vs active route infos which should also come back) then a Yield is an easy, cheap way to add to that.

                    At the very very least, this rule should not be applied to seasons with returning cast members. Casting an All-Stars version of the Race is hard enough. As producers, they have to look at which teams the audience likes, which teams are willing to come back, and which teams are able to come back. Now they also have to add in "What colour is their skin" to the equation.

                    This is a list of who I think should get a call for a returning teams 'unfinished business' season:

                    17:
                    Brook & Claire

                    23:
                    Tim & Marie

                    25:
                    Kym & Alli
                    Shelley & Nici
                    Adam & Bethany

                    26:
                    Hayley & Blair

                    27:
                    Justin & Diana
                    Tiffany & Krista
                    Denise & James Earl

                    30:
                    Kristi & Jen
                    Lucas & Brittany
                    Alex & Conor

                    31:
                    Chris & Bret

                    32:
                    Michelle & Victoria
                    Hung & Chee
                    Kaylynn & Haley

                    33: (would frankly be happy with any of the Final 6 being called)
                    Raquel & Cayla
                    Ryan & Dusty
                    Arun & Natalia
                    Taylor & Isaiah

                    34:
                    Emily & Molly
                    Marcus & Michael
                    Glenda & Lumumba
                    Abby & Will

                    Am interested to see how 35 alters this list.

                    I don't think they should invite 'legend' teams who have competed two or three times before, or previous winners. But I do have a good idea of who would be asked in those scenarios.

                    Outstanding picks: the only minor adjustment would be to include Leo and Alana in the running.

                    Moving forward please...

                    TAR is universal and I would like all evn remotely racial comments left at the door.

                    Thanks guys!

                    Back again with another trip around the world and another race concept, this time, a race that is basically a reverse TAR7 in a way.

                    This can either be returnees only, new teams, or a mix of both, with a possibility to have some above twists mentioned. There would be 12 teams, 3 NELs (if you include KORs), speed bumps for the teams that come last on the first NEL and the KOR (no penalty for the team that comes last on the penultimate leg), u-turns or yields, a fast forward, and potentially a switchback, maybe even invent a new twist. This route may or may not be fully realistic. (I also have a slight affinity for famous/historical/ancient places).

                    Route:

                    Starting Line: Cleveland Public Square, Cleveland, Ohio (if not available for filming, a backup starting line could be held at Progressive Field, I also originally wanted to start this race in rural Rhode Island or New Hampshire, but that would be unrealistic)

                    Leg 1: Cleveland -> Cardiff/Rural Wales, UK (F12, elimination leg, maybe also visit that long llairfairpwll town for the lols if possible) Pit Stop: Cardiff Castle
                    Leg 2: Cardiff -> Portsmouth, England, UK (F11, elimination leg) Pit Stop: Portchester Castle
                    Leg 3: Portsmouth -> La Rochelle, France (F10, elimination leg)  Pit Stop: Maritime Museum
                    Leg 4: La Rochelle -> Zagreb, Croatia (F9, elimination leg) Pit Stop: Kamenita Vrata
                    Leg 5: Zagreb -> Tel Aviv, Israel (F8, Non-elimination leg) Pit Stop: Clock Tower
                    Leg 6: Tel Aviv -> Dhaka, Bangladesh (F8, elimination leg) Pit Stop: National Martyr Monument
                    Leg 7: Dhaka -> Surat, India (F7, elimination leg) Pit Stop: Surat Castle
                    Leg 8: Surat -> Porto Novo, Benin (F6, keep on racing leg) Pit Stop: Honme Museum
                    Leg 9: Porto Novo -> Lomé, Togo (F6, elimination leg) Pit Stop: Palais de Lome
                    Leg 10: Lomé -> Georgetown, Guyana (F5, elimination leg) Pit Stop: Bonsika Creek
                    Leg 11: Georgetown -> Merida, Mexico (F4, non elimination leg) Pit Stop: Chichen Itza
                    Leg 12: Merida/Yucatán -> Orlando, Florida (F4, later F3)

                    In this final leg, the final 4 teams would be sent to Lake Eola Park to complete an Active Route Info about objects seen on the race, then one team member would have to ride the world’s tallest SkyCoaster at Fun Spot (last team to arrive here is eliminated), and after completing that task, teams would have to drive to Disney World (which kinda makes this unrealistic, but hey it’s my amazing race). At Disney World, teams would have to find hidden mickeys at one of the hotels near the Magic Kingdom, and then teams would have to head to the Transportation and Ticket Center, and complete a second Roadblock (that must be completed by the other team member, of course). Teams would have to arrange books that have pictures of the pit stops (and Lake Eola) on them and sort them into categories (monuments, castles, museums, natural places), and once that is done, teams must run to the Finish Line located at Cinderella Castle in the Magic Kingdom.

                    Just for fun: a route that tries to revisit once-visited countries, while still remaining fairly realistic.

                    Leg 1: Santa Monica, CA > Quito, Ecuador
                    Leg 2: Quito > Guayaquil, Ecuador
                    Leg 3: Guayaquil > London, England
                    Leg 4: London > Dublin, Ireland
                    Leg 5: Ireland
                    Leg 6: Ireland > Malta

                    Idea for another TAR Reality Showdown cast and potential route
                    (I’m more familiar with Amazing Race than Survivor or BB, btw)
                    12 team cast (i didnt really follow the bipoc rule)

                    Survivor Teams:
                    Tony and Sarah (Cops R Us)
                    Stephen and JT or Rob Cesternino
                    Amanda and Parvati (I was almost tempted to put Sandra Diaz-Twine here)
                    Denise and Malcolm

                    Big Brother:
                    Boogie and Will (if they’re too controversial, replace with Dan G and Memphis)
                    Liz and Julia
                    Dick and Daniele
                    Taylor and Joseph (if they’re on 36, replace with Kaycee and Tyler)

                    Amazing Race:
                    Justin and Diana
                    Kym and Alli
                    Kris and Jon
                    Eric and Jeremy

                    Alts (ones that aren’t mentioned already): Russell and Brandon (Survivor), Dustin and Kandice, Raquel and Cayla, Mark and Elena (BB), Kristi and Jen, Leo and Alana, Cirie and Other Player/Aras, basically any good racer/houseguest/castaway that comes to mind

                    Route:
                    Starting Line: Breakers Mansion, Newport RI

                    1. US -> Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (Pit Stop: Plaza de La Bandera)

                    2. D.R.-> Santa Cruz de La Sierra, Bolivia (PS: Laguna Capiguara)

                    3. Bolivia -> Belo Horizonte, Brazil (PS: Arena Independencia)

                    4. Brazil -> Abuja, Nigeria (PS: Lokogoma Junction)

                    5. Nigeria -> Nairobi, Kenya (PS: Bomas of Kenya)

                    6. Kenya -> Cagliari, Italy (PS: Bastione de St Remy)

                    7. Italy -> Stuttgart, Germany (PS: Neuss Schloss)

                    8. Stuttgart -> Leipzig, Germany (PS: Volkerschlactdenkmal)

                    9. Germany -> Nagpur, India (PS: Futala Fountain)

                    10. India -> Gwangju, South Korea (PS: May 18 Memorial Park)

                    11. S.K. -> Sapporo, Japan (PS: Sapporo Beer Museum)

                    12. Japan -> Denver, Colorado

                    The final leg would take teams through both the urban and rural parts of the city, visiting famous places such as Coors Field, the Denver Zoo, and some of the natural parks in the outskirts of the city (I don’t really have many ideas because I live in the Northeast). There are two memory tasks, one takes place at Dinosaur Ridge (the pit start is located at the Red Rocks Ampitheater), where teams have to identify the animals (both living and extinct) that they saw on the race by the scientific names (which they also heard throughout the race), and at the Denver Perfoming Arts Center, racers will have to do a memory task relating to the “reality showdown” theme by answering quiz questions about the actions of certain racers throughout the race (they will have to remember what they did as well as what others did). There are 2 other tasks sprinkled in this leg, as well.

                    Finish Line: Denver Botanic Gardens

                    As for twists, both the yield and the U-turn would return, as would the U-turn vote. There would be at least 2 NELs, and 1 KOR. There could be a new twist, but I don’t have any ideas for those.

                    (This season unintentionally features similarities to older seasons, I came up with the end city and the start city locations before the cast and the rest of the Route)

                    With all due respect, Sanchez wouldn't get the Agu treatment and Nairobi would be the second half of a double-leg rather than leaving Mombasa as a single after unvisitable Nairaland.

                    Denise and Malcolm

                    Rob/Stephen were asked for 31 but declined because it conflicted with Stephen's wedding. They've talked about it multiple times throughout the years on RHAP. I assume Bret/Chris ended up getting that spot.

                    Proof or it didn't happen.

                    G.B. is correct. Eric spoke about being invited back (along with Jeremy) on Justin Scheman's Amazing Race podcast. He was cut when it became a Reality Clash season.

                    - Kym and Alli also got the call but were cut when it became Reality Clash rather than a full TAR returnee season.
                    - Sheri and Cole were also called, but Cole declined to reappear.
                    - The two youngest Linz siblings were called (don't ask me why, I would be happy to never see anyone from that season again).
                    - Justin and Diana were called and began the process but Diana found out she was pregnant and could not compete.

                    I think that's all I know about for 31 - I recall hearing Brook and Claire had to decline again due to pregnancy (they've been asked for both 18 and 24 for sure, but the timing has never worked out). Personally I'd love to see Brook and Claire again!

                    As for 36 locations - I'm really hoping for:

                    AUSTRALIA
                    JAPAN
                    NEPAL

                    SOUTH AFRICA

                    Yeah, it is a bit hard to fit 12 teams (4 from each show) onto a race when I want to have gender diversity

                    Can’t wait to see where 36 ends up going, too

                    TAR 36 Wishlist:

                    Starting Line: Los Angeles, CA, United States
                    Leg 1: Nadi, Fiji
                    Leg 2: Mamanuca Islands, Fiji
                    Leg 3: Adelaide, Australia
                    Leg 4: Kangaroo Island, Australia
                    Leg 5: Bangkok, Thailand
                    Leg 6: Hue, Vietnam
                    Leg 7: Kathmandu, Nepal
                    Leg 8: Kathmandu, Nepal
                    Leg 9: Nairobi, Kenya
                    Leg 10: Nairobi National Park, Kenya
                    Leg 11: Casablanca, Morocco
                    Leg 12: Miami, FL, United States

                    New visits to Fiji and Nepal, revisiting Kenya for the first time since season 5, revisiting Australia, plus I'm imagining urban legs in Casablanca and Miami (the latter hasn't had a finale entirely within Miami since Season 7!)

                    My Wishlist/Prediction for Season 36...

                    1. Fraser Island, Australia 🇦🇺
                    2. Brisbane & Gold Coast, Australia 🇦🇺
                    3. Seoul, South Korea 🇰🇷
                    4. Sandakan & Sepilok, Malaysia 🇲🇾
                    5. Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬
                    6. Pohkara, Nepal 🇳🇵
                    7. Kathmandu & Bhaktapur, Nepal 🇳🇵
                    8. Kandy & Nuwara Eliyah, Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
                    9. Istanbul, Turkey 🇹🇷
                    10. Helsinki & Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮
                    11. Killarney & Dingle Coast, Ireland 🇮🇪
                    12. Boston, Massachusetts 🇺🇸

                    Do agree with the western route and think they'll finally go down to Australia, to me Queensland makes the most sense, get the beauty of beaches and jungle as well as the cities and it hasn't been visited since S4. Queenstown NZ is defo somewhere else I see them going. Then to east Asia, im predicting Seoul but could well be Tokyo, Osaka or even Taipei. Another Malaysian borneo leg followed by Singapore (these could be replaced by Indonesia and Kuala Lumpur). I really think we're getting Nepal this season and I'd love to see this followed by Sri Lanka (reckon it could be the Middle East, maybe Oman). Then for Europe I think Turkey is overdue, maybe they'd do Cappadocia followed by the underloved but easily accessible Finland & Ireland, linking to a Boston finish.

                    ^

                    Proof or it didn't happen.

                    G.B. is correct. Eric spoke about being invited back (along with Jeremy) on Justin Scheman's Amazing Race podcast. He was cut when it became a Reality Clash season.

                    - Kym and Alli also got the call but were cut when it became Reality Clash rather than a full TAR returnee season.
                    - Sheri and Cole were also called, but Cole declined to reappear.
                    - The two youngest Linz siblings were called (don't ask me why, I would be happy to never see anyone from that season again).
                    - Justin and Diana were called and began the process but Diana found out she was pregnant and could not compete.

                    I think that's all I know about for 31 - I recall hearing Brook and Claire had to decline again due to pregnancy (they've been asked for both 18 and 24 for sure, but the timing has never worked out). Personally I'd love to see Brook and Claire again!

                    As for 36 locations - I'm really hoping for:

                    AUSTRALIA
                    JAPAN
                    NEPAL
                    THAILAND
                    SOUTH AFRICA
                    MOROCCO (or any second African country!)
                    SWEDEN
                    IRELAND

                    This aged well and(SPOILER!)

                    it came to reality in this order too. Thailand - Sweden - Ireland

                    It'd be cool to see another route (a la S13) where they travel to South America first and then head west to either Australia/New Zealand or Mainland Asia/Japan.

                    I agree. I'd like to see more usage of the trans-oceanic Southern Hemisphere flights (SCL-AKL, SYD-JNB, JNB-GRU, etc.), but it does require planning the race route strategically around the destinations and flight times.

                    If we get 2 seasons filmed next year (one winter, one summer), this is my ideal route Wishlist...

                    Season 36 (January/February)

                    1. Fraser Island, Australia 🇦🇺
                    2. Brisbane & Gold Coast, Australia 🇦🇺

                    6. Masaai Mara, Kenya 🇰🇪
                    7. Lake Nakuru & Nairobi, Kenya 🇰🇪
                    8. Budapest, Hungary 🇭🇺
                    9. Banská Štiavnica & Vysoké Tatry, Slovakia 🇸🇰

                    11. Whitehorse, Canada 🇨🇦
                    12. Maui, Hawaii 🇺🇸

                    If this is too much for modern TAR, swap out Kenya for South Africa/Namibia, Brazil for Caribbean & Nepal for Sri Lanka


                    Season 37 (June/July)

                    1. Barcelona, Spain 🇪🇸
                    2. Accra, Ghana 🇬🇭

                    4. Butrint, Ksamil & Gjirokaster, Albania 🇦🇱
                    5. Mykonos, Greece 🇬🇷
                    6. Cappadocia, Turkey 🇹🇷
                    7. Istanbul, Turkey 🇹🇷

                    11. Taipei, Taiwan 🇹🇼
                    12. Boston & Cape Cod, Massachusetts 🇺🇸

                    To simplify, replace Mykonos with second Albania leg,  NZ with Indonesia & Ghana with Morocco

                    Defo see Albania being visited, it's like the travel destination of this year, be cool if was paired with a leg in Ohrid, North Macedonia

                    I love this route. If I was a racer, I'd enjoy racing in it, Though, I'd swap out Singapore for Taiwan and the penultimate leg being in either Seoul or Busan, South Korea.

                    A race in style of TAR35, taking some inspiration from some Australian television and involving efforts to control for carbon emissions by doubling* up legs in one country, using long-haul flights, and leveraging means of transportation besides flights.

                    12 teams, two non-eliminations.

                    1. Los Angeles, CA --> Whitsundays, Australia: Featuring sailing around the Whitsundays, visiting the Ngaro Underwater Sculpture Park, various tributes to the Ngaro people, and a potential stand-up paddleboard race to the Pit Stop.
                    2. Whitsundays to Charters Towers, Australia: Netflix's The Mole shot an episode here, paying homage to gold mining with some currency-related tasks; further, Australian Survivor: Blood v. Water filmed here, and I would die to see a task at Red Falls in the Great Basalt Wall National Park, the location for an incredible immunity challenge.

                    3. Charters Towers to Kaohsiung, Taiwan: Hakka Games, Dragon Boat paddling from the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas, and an eating task featuring stinky tofu, with teams deciding between larger portions of less pungency and smaller portions of greater smell.
                    4. Kaohsiung to Pingsi & Jiufen, Taiwan: Train ride following a KOR; teams arrange lanterns according to a set pattern in an Old Town resembling Spirited Away and make fish balls surrounded by hungry and curious kitties in the Houtong Cat Village.
                    5. Taipei to Jaisalmer, India: Located in the Sam Sand Dunes in the outskirts of the city teams take part in the Jaisalmer Desert Festival, decorating camels, measuring mustaches, and navigating through the dunes.
                    6. Jaisalmer, India: Set in a world not immediately after TAR35's Rajasthan double-feature; teams return to the city, running around Jaisalmer Fort, Gadisar Lake, and Nathmal ki Haveli. Perhaps teams even visit India's largest wind farm.
                    7. Jaisalmer to Riga & Sigulda, Latvia: After starting the leg with a bungee jump from the cable car everyone talks about, teams return to the city, receiving birch branch sauna "treatments" and using decorating a Christmas tree in front of the Brotherhood of the Blackheads, the location of the first lit tree. NEL.
                    8. Riga to Curonian Spit, Lithuania: Self-driving from Riga to Klaipéda, featuring a ferry to Smiltyne on the spit. Teams partake in pagan rituals at the Hill of Witches and go sandboarding before finishing (perhaps dangerously) close to the Russian border.
                    9. Lithuania to Cappadocia, Turkey: Glad to see others have been thinking about this destination again (which inspired me to start posting routes again). It's been too long since TAR visited Turkey, with both Rush and season 6 of TAR:Australia visiting the country. Tasks include redoing TAR1's walkie-talkie mission in the underground city of Kaymakli and an old-school Detour, with teams attempting to find the same route market outside Göreme by either riding ATVs or soaring in a hot-air balloon.
                    10. Cappadocia to Dalaman, Turkey: Only because the Izmir region was just done, but might relocate there if there are too many sunburnt Brits to feel particularly removed from the beaten path. Teams go paragliding, kayak to the Blue Cave, and translate ancient Lycian tablets in the Tlos Ruins.
                    11. Dalaman to Istanbul, Turkey: Since TAR may never visit Turkey again after this, let's limit visa and travel costs. Australia's Rush displayed Istanbul beautifully, visiting the Süleymaniye Mosque and Basilica Cistern at dawn. Having teams navigate the different parts of the city by exclusively foot and ferry will make them earn the finale.
                    12. Istanbul to Washington, DC: This isn't your civics class's visit to DC. Teams run along the Georgetown Waterfront after solving a clue leading them to the Exorcist Steps, rappel down the Watergate Building (and try to eavesdrop on their next clue as they pass by a *classified* window), and untangle the Finish Line location from a greeter at Gallaudet University using ASL. Teams then drive themselves through DC traffic to the Finish Line at Overlook 2 (the broadest viewpoint possible, to accommodate the mat) at Great Falls Park in McLean, Virginia.

                    Easily better than 22  :2hearts: I feel like there's a way to include cycling at some point, maybe Georgetown to Theodore Roosevelt Island and then across the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge to the Watergate.

                    Anyway, a route that would probably be best in summer but could work in winter:

                    START - the Big Brother house, Studio City, CA (loljk pick a LA landmark)
                    LEG 1 - to Foz do Iguazu, Brazil / Puerto Iguazu, Argentina; this would be a split leg with half the teams in Brazil and half in Argentina, ultimately meeting up at the Itaipu Dam on the triple border of Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay
                    LEG 2 - Asuncion to Aregua, Paraguay
                    LEG 3 - Casablanca to Fez, Morocco (via train)
                    LEG 4 - Chefchaouen, Morocco
                    LEG 5 - Gibraltar, UK (via ferry)
                    LEG 6 - Zakopane Region, Poland
                    LEG 7 - Krakow, Poland (via train)
                    LEG 8 - Bogor, Indonesia
                    LEG 9 - Singapore (via ferry)
                    LEG 10 - Gun-Galuut National Park, Mongolia
                    LEG 11 - Ulanbataar, Mongolia
                    LEG 12 - San Diego, CA

                    Thanks! I agree that Roosevelt Island would be a great location; perhaps by putting Gallaudet earlier in the leg TR Island could host the final memory challenge. The secluded trails and multiple clearings make it perfect for multiple stations to keep teams from seeing each others' progress. None of these open spaces are large enough for the Finish Line.

                    I loved running over the Key Bridge and then along the Potomac to TR Island when I lived in DC; the run back to DC over the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge is grueling (making it more fitting for bikes), but between it and the Watergate lies the Kennedy Center. The rooftop garden is worth a visit, and then the hall with all countries' flags makes for a nice quick Route Info (a la the find a food cart selling food of your last Pit Stop city in TAR13 Portland. There could be 100 clueboxes in that hall and teams would have to find the one directly under the flag of x country (maybe one of the Baltics in my route because I'd imagine India, Australia, etc. have much more recognizable flags).

                    Thought I'd make another final leg route wishlist before next week! It's Leg 12... fourth down, final three locked in.

                    Leg 12 (? ? ? -> United States) | fly to Reno, Nevada, rely on self-driving from early morning
                    *New Washoe City (Thunderbird Lake Tahoe) -both team members to paddle their own Clear Kayak 1/2 mile into Lake Tahoe
                    *Lake Tahoe (Rope swing installation) -Roadblock: one team member to rope swing onto an inflatable target w/o falling off
                    --note: production to create, nonexistent in real life :2hearts:
                    *Incline Village (Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe) -each team member to complete a box slide snowboard maneuver to receive the next clue
                    *Reno (Locomotion Plaza) -clue retrieval
                    *Reno (National Bowling Stadium) -run to on foot; finish a game with a team score of 120 or more
                    *Wadsworth (Sacred Visions Powwow Grounds) -clue to receive from chairman and authentic dancers
                    *Gerlach (Fly Ranch Geyser) -clue retrieval
                    *Gerlach (Black Rock Desert) -final memory task inspired by Burning Man Festival's geodesic dome tents and art installations
                    After passing, teams drive a "mutant vehicle" in matching helmet wear through the desert to the Finish Line

                    Starting Line: Hobie Island Beach Park, Miami, Florida. Situated along the Rickenbacker Causeway and close to the Miami Marine Stadium.
                    Show content
                    (https://i.imgur.com/uVd7Aob.jpg)
                    (https://i.imgur.com/0RbWN0F.jpg)

                    1. Miami, Florida to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: Roadblock involving searching the Miami Marine Stadium for one six-foot-long domino to complete a game set of similarly-sized tiles (based on the number of dots on either side of the gap) before flying to Rio; samba float/routine Detour and a task requiring teams to put together a recipe for feijoada (inspired by a task in HMLM in São Paulo) while Bossa nova music blares. Pit Stop at Museu do Amanhã.
                    2. Rio to Paraty, Brazil: A colonial town seen on Rush, teams make sawdust carpets and face a churrasco Roadblock where members must place cuts of meat served on a rodizio onto a cow diagram, else they must eat it.
                    3. Paraty to Juatinga Ecological Reserve, Brazil: Three legs in the same state? Thanks, budget! Teams take part in Brazil’s gold trail and load (fake) gold bars into a Saveiro boat, sailing to a remote island to find a chest and bury their loot. Other tasks include learning capoeira and regional cachaça.
                    4. Brazil to Rome, Italy (& Vatican City): Roman catacombs and a Detour in Vatican City where teams must choose between matching murals and Vatican stamps.
                    5. Rome to Potenza, Italy: Hobbit hole wine cellars (https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/parco-dei-palmenti-pietragalla), a face-first zipline (https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/volo-dell-angelo) between two mountain towns, and self-driving are enough to make a leg in the Basilicata mountains.
                    6. Italy to Zanzibar, Tanzania: Sorting recyclables, collecting seaweed, and rowing to a Pit Stop on Changuu Island, where the Pit Stop mat is surrounded by giant tortoises.
                    7. Zanzibar to Khasab, Oman: A fitting jump, as Oman colonized Zanzibar. Teams repair dhows before using them to explore the fjords and climb cliffs. NEL.
                    8. Khasab to Nizwa, Oman: Teams take a ferry to the mainland before driving to the mountains, where they spend the night in beehive-shaped tombs. Teams then choose between an Omani saber dance and running errands in Misfat al Abriyyin (https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/misfat-al-abriyyin) (collecting dates, honey, and resin for frankincense). These mountain canyons would also be a good fit for a canyoning RB a la TAR33 in Corsica.
                    9. Nizwa to Tbilisi, Georgia: My 2022 game saw it first: Old Town Tbilisi before a Pit Stop in the rock-hewn town of Uplistsikhe.
                    10. Tbilisi to Hanoi, Vietnam: Incense, water puppets, and a Tower of Hanoi puzzle before the Pit Stop at the Imperial Citadel. Potential Fast Forward relating to snake wine in Le Mat.
                    11. Hanoi to Da Nang, Vietnam: Teams start the leg with a more difficult version of the coins and kings Roadblock from TAR Asia 3 at the Hue tombs, explore the caves of the Marble Mountains, and finish at the Cham ruins of My Son.
                    12. Da Nang to Colorado Springs, Colorado: Connecting through Tokyo, teams arrive in Denver and then drive to Colorado Springs. Tasks involve the fruitcake toss in Manitou Springs, where they use a slingshot to launch old fruitcakes through increasingly-narrow hoops and something to get teams winded hiking up the impossibly-steep Manitou Incline. Perhaps a task relating to medals or solving a code using Olympic Games' years at the US Olympic & Paralympic Training Center before a final memory challenge in Garden of the Gods. Finish Line, with permit pending, at the Cadet Chapel of the US Air Force Academy.

                    13 teams, 12 legs, 7 countries, ~22,000 miles of air travel, and two crossings of the Pacific Ocean.

                    Starting Line
                    : Alaska 360’s Dredge Town, Skagway, Alaska, United States
                    At the Starting Line, teams receive clues based on either the fur color, leash color, facial markings, or names of huskies and have to identify a husky in the kennel that was part of an (imaginary?) Iditarod team (task inspo from BB Reindeer Games Ep 4 Naughty/Nice Challenge)

                    (https://i.imgur.com/lLkXCtQ.jpeg)

                    1.  Skagway, Alaska to Carcross, Yukon
                    : Based on the order of finishing the Starting Line Task, teams are assigned different cars on the White Pass & Yukon Route Railway (https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjM9Pmd-f6DAxXIhIkEHfPoD9MQFnoECAgQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwpyr.com%2F&usg=AOvVaw3o24fycUUMLrlO-RGdH839&opi=89978449) to Carcross. Once in Carcross, teams play beach volleyball in the Carcross Desert, row to floating clues on Bennett Lake (including an optional plunge into the cold water to swim to an Express Pass), and match English and Coastal Tagish names. KOR & NEL.
                    2. Carcross, Yukon to Skagway, Alaska: At the Caribou Crossing Trading Post, teams pack Conestoga wagons according to an example, face a Roadblock at Skydive Yukon, and begin the drive back to Skagway, stopping at the Yukon Suspension Bridge (https://www.yukonsuspensionbridge.com/) in British Columbia. Teams’ final task in Skagway, finishing off this Wild West/Gold Rush pair of legs, is a Detour between gold panning and burlesque dancing. Ideally, Leg 1 starts at dawn and producers can take advantage of the summertime midnight sun to get two legs shot in a single day.
                    3. Skagway to Seoul, South Korea: Because Korea is criminally under visited. Building Korean swings, taekwondo, and a K-POP routine a la TAR30 in Zimbabwe before subjecting teams to hell on the N Seoul Tower love locks.
                    4. Seoul to Gyeongju, South Korea: Seokguram Grotto; a game of tuho deciding which side of a Chuseok Detour teams complete; and a riddle leading teams to the Pit Stop at Cheomseongdae.
                    5. Gyeongju to Sado Island, Japan: Teams travel by ferry to Fukuoka, and train to Niigata, and ferry (again) to Sado Island (https://www.atlasobscura.com/adventures/trips/japan); 1 flight in 5 (soon to be 6) legs to make up for added costs due to two trans-Pacific flights. Detour relating to taiko drumming or rowing Tarai Bune (https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/sado-island-tarai-bune) tub boats, sake tasting Roadblock, and an ARI relating to Niigata prefecture’s Wara rice straw sculptures (https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/wara-art).
                    6. Sado Island, Japan: Teams Face-Off in drama stacking, match Noi theatre masks, hang carp streamers, and enter the Sado Gold Mine to collect Tokugawa-era Japanese coins. Pit Stop at the Futatsugame Beach tombolo.
                    7. Sado Island to Papeete, Tahiti, France: Teams fly from Narita. Rather than focusing on the beach elements of French Polynesia, I’d like to use this leg to explore the Heiva Festival (https://xdaysiny.com/heiva-festival-tahiti-french-polynesia/). Teams learn a dance or make intricate costumes for another. The Roadblock sees one team member compete in three coconut-related sports: climbing a coconut tree, throwing a javelin at a suspended coconut, and copra harvesting, in which teams use a stone axe to cut open a pile of coconuts to extract its fiber. Pit Stop in Tahiti’s mountains.
                    8. Papeete to Rapa Nui, Chile: In a world where the Papeete-Easter Island-Santiago transoceanic flight is back and this season is built around taking advantage of it. Teams build an Umu earth oven and have Tu’u haino ino tattoos applied to their backs, serving as a map to direct them around the Rano Raraku crater. KOR but elimination since the only NEL was in Leg 1.
                    9. Rapa Nui to Santiago, Chile: A logistical necessity. The KOR last leg was strictly to allow for filming and teams to get on the next day’s Rapa Nui-Santiago flight. Hopefully this is better than past Santiago legs (and I don’t have high hopes for TAR36’s visit). Teams earn money as Chinchineros, memorize Pablo Neruda poems, and face a seafood market Detour where they either stack prickly sea urchins or fold seaweed into Cochayuyo (https://www.atlasobscura.com/foods/cochayuyo-seaweed-chile) cubes.
                    10. Santiago to Bogotá, Colombia: Another attempt to make up for past visits that didn’t do the country justice. Teams start the leg by playing Tejo against each other, aiming their discs at targets with the other teams’ faces. Teams then depart based on the cumulative scores against them. Tasks pay homage to Bogota’s nickname, the “Athens of South America,” the gold Muisca Tunjo zoomorph (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunjo) sculptures (with a larger-than-life puzzle), and Colombian gastronomy.
                    11. Bogotá to Medellín & Guatapé, Colombia: I have a soft spot for these cities (and, like Santiago, am wary of the upcoming visits). Teams go on a walking graffiti tour in Comuna Trece, choose between making and selling arepas or decorating for the Medellín flowers festival (https://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,37128.msg1307823.html#msg1307823), and climb up the Piedra del Peñol to spot the Pit Stop before rappelling down and kayaking across the Guatapé reservoir to reach it.
                    12. Medellín to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma: Teams calculate the value of beef at the largest cattle market on earth (https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/oklahoma-national-stockyards), tune banjos at the American Banjo Museum, navigate the Oklahoma City Underground, and honor to the 39 tribes of Oklahoma at the First Americans Museum before finishing on the grounds of the Vien Giac Buddhist Temple in Northeast Oklahoma City (not too much in terms of parks or landmarks that offer private-like spaces).

                    Felt quite bored from trying to binge watch the recent seasons, here's where I'm hoping for them to go:

                    1. A full leg in Kyoto - having a roadblock of kintsugi - repainting and remaking a broken tea cup, pounding rice and making mochi, as well as dressing a team member up as a geisha or a traditional Japanese guy, row boats across Sagano, and even head to Amanohasidate.
                    2. Revisit Da Nang and Hoi An - have them carry paper lanterns, or design some, have them make their own bikes - or bamboo bikes or what not, and make them again use those traditional boats.
                    3. A long overdue visit to Cape Town - while there are reasons as to why TAR might be skipping it since S7, I don't know why they have to skip this - a lot of tasks can be easily done, from traditional African dances, to wine tasting/making and even safari style legs which require teams to spot animals.
                    4. Melbourne and Hobart - again, another set of places they haven't visited at all since the start of the American series
                    5. Chongqing and Sichuan, China - China might be difficult given geopolitical tensions, but it would be gold to see teams binging on numbing hot pot spices similar to other food challenges done before.
                    6. Turkey - Fairy Mountains
                    7. Bosnia & Herzegovina, Serbia and Bulgaria - as countries closest to somewhat a Russian-esque style of Europe.
