Even though we are a spoiler board, we do NOT want to have the episode spoiled while it is airing.
If you are watching anything but an EST US feed, it is your responsibility to be sure you are not ahead of us if you want to post in this thread. Canadian and Asian satellite feeds are often way ahead of us.
SO PLEASE ** NO WIKI UPDATES or Satellite Viewer updates** to be posted before the show is done airing East Coast time! Anyone breaking the rule is at risk of being banned.
Otherwise, come watch with us for the best weekly viewing party in town!! :party:
I hope to have a live steam or at least links posted HERE (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,23401.new.html#new). For those who are not on the East Coast time, you can follow along and PLEASE help update as the show unfolds! Everyone is more than welcomed to join in the fun!! :wohoo:
-
I hope I can watch it with you guys! :hearts: Excited already!
-
Any sport overrun predicted tonight?
-
Depends where you are. I'm in an area getting the late Kansas City-Seattle game, so we're probably looking at a 15-30 minute overrun for those getting that game.
-
Live links?
-
I am torn between topics. I like this one, but am sucked in to TAR18 and the awesome updates over there. :juggle
-
Waiting for an Eye-lert to come in, but it looks to be a 24 minute overrun for those of us who got the KC-Seattle game.

Well, that's not me! I'm currently in the Tampa area on a vacation (and will be heading to Walt Disney World from there), and they had just a 1 pm game on CBS! For once, I don't have to worry about the Race running late!

JT got a huge lead, double U-Turn drama, 4 teams remain...who will be eliminated next...week?
-
Well no feed for me (I can get sound no picture...), and SurvivorLDog isn't doing it this week for me to even steal his/her work, so no help from me tonight.

Yeah, we all know it's an NEL.

Citing the poll thread as a possibility: "It's an überleg, Charlie Brown" :lol:
and the moment I type that, a Peanuts comercial comes in.
-
Chills down the spine with the theme song.
-
J&T 8:25 Fly to HK, go by bus and ferry find next clue.
-
J&T haven't seen any teams (neither have I).
Go to travel agent to get out. All teams should be on same flight.
-
N&V: FLy to Hong Kong "Thank God", Nick.
Nat & Kat, Kat's been to Hong Kong.
B&K: Get to see Thomas. BRook & Claire are the only team to survive a U-Turn. Obviously they haven't really watched season 12, with Nicholas & Donald having no problem with someone using a U-turn on them...,.
-
B&C blame Thomas but not Jill, THomas and Jill go up to the girls, so not to be asses.
All teams are traveling through singapore to Hong Kong. Again I don't see anything.
-
okay I am out....feel free to continue on, but I must have a delay, andy just finished so see you all later!
:waves:
-
Nick & icky and someone else are bitching about other teams getting ona Bus before them.
I can hear Jill & thomas who are alone on teh first bus.
-
J&T get tickets, they think the other teams might be able to make the ferry.
-
All teams are traveling through singapore to Hong Kong. Again I don't see anything.
I knew it was Thomas and not Khaire i saw at Changi Airport....
-
And Peach is right, its asthema. Or however you spell it.
Jill & thomas feel that everyone is going to catch up at the last minute.
Boat is leaving, and I have no idea who is on it, its a half hour later is all I hear. Sounds like Nick & Vicki are the only teams who missed. I am sorry. I am sick of you being sorry.
-
I have to admit, it really does suck to lose your lead when waiting for transport, especially transport that leaves often so you just start to feel you have the chance to stay out ahead when everyone starts catching up.
I can only imagine how many racers have felt this over the seasons.
-
Nat & Kat caught up, and so did Brook & Claire!
Nick & Vicki missed the first ferry thanks to Vicki's asthma flaring up at the wrong time.
Belle Book
-
Nick is going at Vicki, Vicki crying...
Brook is all over Claire again...Hell why is it that THomas is nicer then Brook is.
More sucking from Nick as their ferry finally leaves.
Jill & Thomas get to next clue, teams must now travel on another Ferry go to Restaurant. Brook & Claire is next. More pushing from Brook, more let me do what I can.
Lets not Talk.
-
Ok, girls Hug it out. Next Ferry have no idea who's on it.
More complaining from Nick. Wish we would never came. Oh my god its Paul.
Nat and Kat talking about sights. And yes, the shock of the poor to the shiney and new is really big.
-
Cabs
Nat & Kat
Jill & Thomas
Brook & Claire
Nat & Kat sound like they get their first.
RB Eating....looking for one of five fake items, anything they pick up must eat.
-
And the racers call it sushi.
Nat does it, like we know.
-
Jill & Thomas 2nd. Thomas feels peckish.
-
Brook & Claire next. Claire does it thinking its singing. he,he
-
Brook talks about every RB being not what she thought, and being horrible.
-
Kat gets it, now have to look for Bruce Lee (check cemetary).
-
Thomas and Claire stille ating. Nick and Vicky still on Ferry.
Nat & Kat find Detour.
Tram system looking for three signs that reveal Pit Stop
Wooden Cage board sanpan head out to harbor look for one with registration number that matches birds.
Nat & Kat pick birds.
-
"Put it your mouth Thomas" I love to hear that.
Thomas gets it, they make their way to the dead.
Nick & Vicky get to cab.
Nat & KAt get to start of Detour.
-
Nat: These boats seem to go on for ever. Yes, yes they do.
J&T Find Bruce. Choose Tram system.
Nick & Vicki get to RB. I guess me I have to do it (well yeah you do).
Claire is still there, Brook talks about her supposed to be on a diet for her wedding...
-
J&T start Tram detour.
-
Vicki: I can't eat this stuff.
Claire joins the vomit comet.
Brook whining that she's feeling bad...
Oh yeah thats some Barf!!!
-
I don't envy Claire! Poor woman!
Glad to see Nat did so well with the Roadblock!
Belle Book
-
You know, obviously Nick has been an ass in a few episodes, but I honestly think Brook is worse then men like Chad and Thomas in how they talk to their partner.
-
I don't envy Claire! Poor woman!
Glad to see Nat did so well with the Roadblock!
Belle Book
Seriously how hard is it for Brook to have any sympathy for her partner. Even driven people like Colin had sympathy for Christie puking, and Kendra was so supportive about Freddy puking.
Oh and we are back, and here we finally get Brook being nice. Thanks. I was going to get pissed.
Claire gets through the RB.
-
I have Barf Breathe.
Nat & KAt complain about how long they have been looking.
Jill & THomas are talking about how much they are not seeing anything. Jill switch to other option.
-
And another racer calling it sushi, Nick actually sounds a lot better now then earlier.
Jill & Thomas get to birds.
Nat & Kat are still looking.
-
Brook & claire find dead guy, and choose Birds.
-
Jill & THomas find clue (Go Jill). Look for statue square for the Pit Stop of the race.
-
Nat & Kat find right location, and head back.
-
Jill & Thomas can't get a cab. Nat & KAt catch up and pass Jill & Thomas as they get a cab.
-
Brook & Claire get to the start of Bird side of detour. Apparently the birds don't like Brook & Claire.
Vicki
I hate Chinese food, for title.
Cab race.
-
And in first place we have Nat & KAt
-
Win a Trip to Rio
I really like these two
Jill & Thomas team number 2 (and boy to lose primarily to waiting for transport at three different parts of the leg, has to suck, I know I would be burned about that aspect).
Vicki is having a lot of problems and sounds like vomit number 2.
-
Nick offers for them to take a penalty instead of Vicki throwing up all night, it thinks thats stupid (and in all honesty I really hate food challenges when it causes people to actually get ill).
-
Clearly with the odds being a non elimination its smart to take a penalty as opposed to getting so ill that it stays with you.
THough of course Nick might just be hoping that its an elimination leg as well, who knows.
-
And in first place we have Nat & KAt
Nat & Kat are in first! NAT & KAT ARE IN FIRST!
:wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy: :wohoo: :jumpy:

Vicky doesn't want to quit.
Its supposed to be fun- Nick
Vicki doesn't want to quit. She starts again.
SHe gets it, finally (a tropper). THey look for Bruce.
Brook: It's a needle in a haystake..
Nick & Vicki get to Detour.
Brook (or Claire) are calling out their number).
-
Brook & claire are screaming, so I assume they found it....
-
Nick is really not happy. Really not happy...
Brook & Claire somewhere screaming, oh on the way to cab....
-
Are Nick & Vicki Punk Rockers.
Nick wants to quit, Vicki is tired but doesn't want to quit. Nick is pretty certain that they quitting. Talks about a 6 hour penalty. No sleep in two days, no food today, not worth it.
Nick is sleeping, Vicki is still looking and pissed at Nick.
Screaming women at Mat. More screaming at Team number 3.
-
Your still wasting your time, your the hardest headed women int eh world. Its 4am get me out of here.
Vicki says she can't keep doing it by herself. Head to Phil. Take a 6 hour penalty.
-
What happened to 24 hour penalty????
Nick & Vicki you are the last team to arrive, sorry to tell you this is a non elimination leg, 6 hour penalty, speed bump, and already a long ways back.
-
Next week, Nick & Vicki are so not a factor...... Just a guess.
-
Vicki is my hero
-
Nick is pathetic.
Feel so sorry for Vicki, she is such a tough competitor.
-
lots of screaming in the previews...
-
Next week, teams go to north Korea (not really). Who earns a spot in the final three. Lets me guess......
-
I'm not surprised Nick & Vicki quit -- I predicted it. I am surprised they quit over the Detour and that the penalty was 6 hours! I thought it was 24 hours!
Then again, maybe it's just as well for Nick & Vicki. Imagine how hard it would be to recover from a 24 hour penalty! A 6-hour one isn't impossible to recover from -- it's just almost impossible.
Belle Book
-
However, since Vicki said she had to do the Roadblock, I'm guessing the RB limit is back on 6.
-
That speedskating task looks challenging!
Cool task though.

Hopefully flights will make their disadvantage less miserable.
-
I love Vicki, but Nick in final 3 would be a disgrace. Just put them out of their misery with a super late flight (and no bunching) please.
-
BTW, who said the title? Claire? Or Vicki? It has to be one of those two -- Nat and Thomas had no problems with the food.
Belle Book

While I don't think Nick wanting to quit is disgusting, as many racers over the years have reached a plateau where they couldn't go any further, I was more upset about his talking to her at the start of the leg then any behavior later.
Hell we have had a bunch of racers quit before even trying tasks, let alone after being this far back on a leg, where you know the chances are you aren't going to be the team that wins.
-
I am pretty sure Vicki said the title quote.
-
Vicki had the title after completing Roadblock.
-
Oh and just a note, I could only judge this episode by sound, so there could be a huge amount of visual evidence on people's attitude both good and bad that I couldn't judge.

What I think made this quitting so pathetic was Nick refusing to give a damn and even acknowledge Vicki's tremendous and valiant effort and guts at the roadblock. Your girlfriend just fought her heart out at a task and you can't even be bothered to look around for a number on a boat? That's pretty pathetic. (:;)
-
ANd while I have mentioned that I feel bad for Jill & Thomas this leg, as they did actually run the better leg, I have no problem at all with them not winning the leg as it is part of the race. I just get a little bummed (pretty much no matter who it is) to see a lot of points of equalization, where you lose any time you have gained. Luckily the race isn't nearly as bad as it used to be in this regard.
-
Vicki had the title after completing Roadblock.
Thanks. Anyway, I think we have our final 3 teams set.
Nick's worse than Flo from Season 3! At least although Flo often quit or nearly-quit, at least she never took a penalty!

Well it really depends, did they spend much time looking? Did Nick just say screw it I am going to sleep, or was he serious when he said he just couldn't do this anymore and was getting ready to pass out? As different people have different thresholds of endurance (and yes women can have greater endurance then men), it really depends if he was literally dead tired where he couldn't look anymore. It did sound like both of them were easily tired enough where they probably couldn't even focus to see. I know I did this while driving from Wyoming to Alaska with my brother after not eating for a day, and not sleeping much for two days, I literally fell asleep on the wheel nearly killing both of us.
And you must also realize that Vicki for being sick and hating the roadblock also got energy in the form of the food she was able to eat. Thus she should have more energy at this point if they were both running on empty (even though she should also feel like crap).
Really it all depends on it Nick just wanted to quit and out of stubbornness wouldn't do anything else, or if he was truly exhausted.
Again I will really need to see this episode before I can state one way or the other I feel is more likely.

Belle Book
Sorry not even close. You have to remember that back in season 3 one racer could do all the tasks. Even the one detour where they each had to do their own boat, she had Zach come and pull her, and Zach had to get locals to do the other part of it for him (they honestly thought this would get them a penalty as it was against instructions, I don't know why they didn't get a penalty). And she didn't do this for one leg, or two, or three, she did from Europe through to Asia. And again thinks to the rules she really didn't have to do much at all. Well flirting with Drew does that count.
-
I'd probably go with the fact that since the leg started in midday maybe (as in when they got to Hong Kong) and then carrying out to 4 am (as stated by Nick) that it was pure exhaustion.
While I don't think Nick wanting to quit is disgusting, as many racers over the years have reached a plateau where they couldn't go any further, I was more upset about his talking to her at the start of the leg then any behavior later.

I will refrain from making comments on Nick's attitude until I see the full episode, but I think we can all agree Vicki rocks

If they have another season where they bring back racers, bring back Vicki and a better partner! :lol: She's a tough and smart competitor!
-
I think Vicki is doing really well. But I hate to dog on a racer for "possible" reaching their end, especially when we have seen that Nick has been doing his share in fact more of, so far (even look at the detours and see who's had the heavier load during those tasks) and that left Vicki a task she had great difficulty with. Certainly he has a temper and he has certainly been an ass to Vicki at times, but it isn't like he hasn't been racing through the season. We have had other racers who literally have had their partner do almost everything for them before giving up, that wasn't the case with Nick.
Obviously part of the issue is how he has treated Vicki in some of the legs (including this one) and the fact that he's a man and she's a women.
But those two issues aren't necessarily connected to the issue of him quitting and it being a terrible thing.
-
She's tough, but even in her own words she isn't smart. And really there isn't anything wrong with that, it isn't like everyone has an equal reference point in intelligence.
-
However, since Vicki said she had to do the Roadblock, I'm guessing the RB limit is back on 6.
Penalty for quitting Detour not RB...
-
Clearly, the big news out of this leg is the change in the penalty for quitting a detour. It had been 24 hours (that was the case a couple of seasons back when Maria and Tiffany quit the detour in the Netherlands in TAR 15. But it's apparently now 6 hours -- but the detour choices are becoming even more difficult.
And the fact that Vicki did the roadblock seems to confirm that Nick has reached the maximum he's permitted to do, as I suggested after last week's episode.
And the placement average for the top 3 teams continue to be as close as you can get without having ties. (0.2 placements between the top three teams. Nick and Vicki are now averaging 5.4000 and there are only four teams left!)
-

True Peach.....but I think Danooky was talking about the roadblock limit a team member can do.....Nick has done 6 RBs so far and thats why Vicki said she had to do the Roadblock.
-
I now wonder if TPTB changed the penalty starting this season to six hours for quitting a detour after that U-turn that eliminated Joe and Heidi last season in France with a task that they couldn't complete (the Morse Code one).
-
I'm sorry if this is a bother but I've always wondered what TPTB means :duno: . I know every acronym but that.

I dont recollect there being any time penalty mentioned in that episode from TAR 15...having said that.....I dont remember any time being mentioned. I do remember the 24 hour penalty in Season 1....and thought at the time it was way to much for taking a taxi and not the car/bus deal in the detour. As far as I remember, The Poker girls were last and quit the race.....not took the time penalty......They were last and it really didnt matter if it was 6 hours or 24 hours,......it was an elimination leg and they were toast either way, but I am sure going back to watch it again.
We probably need the Peach lady to make some discreet inquires of her numerable contacts and find out just when teams go the change in the pre race briefing.....lol
-
So did everybody see our former Racer Caitlin in the commercial following the credits?
:lol: :-[

If they have another season where they bring back racers, bring back Vicki and a better partner! :lol: She's a tough and smart competitor!
Yes they should get her as a partner that girl from season 6, who was with cry baby Adam.

EXACTLY. Nick and Vicki is like Adam and Rebecca V2.0.. Rebecca and Vicki OWNED their partners on the race. WTH, you complain about Vicki not being able to run because SHE CANNOT BREATH. But then you quit on the Detour?!
This leg was really boring, with the exception of the fight for first place, the rest of the episode was kinda boring (in terms of teams progression) To be fair, the ROADBLOCK was really creative! This is one RB that i'll remember in TAR's history! Whoever thought of this RB should be given credits!
And to be fair once again, the Detour, the Billboards one.. was really creative! One who has been to HK.. will know how many thousand billboards are on the streets.. to find 3 which says PITSTOP STATUE SQUARE = KILLER.
And the boats detour was really creative as well.
I'm just glad that based on who we know are the final 3.. these three teams are indeed the top 3 most deserving team to make it to the end.
And Nat and Kat won 4 legs already. They beat the Dustin and Kandice record already. :lol:
-
Nick needs 2 b slugged! :CnJ:
Both of them need serious counseling! :flipper

NK do not hate other teams as much as DK did. In fact, BC & NK r much more agreeable than previous FF teams.

:lol: No wonder the restaurant was so hard to find, apparently no one takes any pictures of the ceiling when they eat there (but this photo shows the same shiny glass thingies as in the previews). Looks like they got the owner/chef to be the roadblock judge too. :snicker:
-
Yay for Nat and Kat claiming first place! I was so happy when Nat got the Roadblock first. But they were rather slow at the Detour weren't they. Jill and Thomas did the other one, switched, and over took them at the Detour. I thought that Jill and Thomas were gonna snag their fourth first-place finish, but it went to Nat and Kat! The fight for first place was a real exciting one, with Nat and Kat and Jill and Thomas swapping positions constantly at the end!
I just love Nat and Kat SO much. Seriously, have we ever seen them being even a little bit frustrated with each other, with the race, or with any other team? At least I haven't. They're so nice to each other and everyone, and they're so calm, cool and collected it's unbelievable. LOVE the doctors!!! :hearts:
I must say that Brook and Claire have started to show signs of struggles. They started off the race a force to be reckoned with. Along the way, they did okay and towards the end, they're kinda constantly at the back of the pack. They've been the most consistent team in the race I feel, with their worst position being 6th place. But at this point, I think Nat and Kat and Jill and Thomas are the real contenders for the million. I still love them though! They're always so energetic and crack me up all the time.
I loved the Roadblock! Not only was the task great, I loved the energy too. It was nice to see Kat, Jill and Brook enjoying themselves on stage! Not to mention Brook and her getting the audience to cheer for Claire. Lol.
I was seriously pissed with Nick this episode. I actually expected Vicki to quit the Roadblock, but no, it was Nick who let the team down. He's such a disappointment. All the while he was chiding Vicki for slowing him down, for doing the Roadblock so slowly... But in the end, he was the one who gave up on the Detour. And it sucked to see him lie there and sleep while Vicki was working so hard. It was a painful moment to watch, I felt so sad and indignant for Vicki.
Now, with Nick and Vicki so far behind, I feel that it's gonna make the race for Final 3 so boring. Even if we know the eventual result, I'd prefer some drama and not have one team totally out of the running. But well, I just love this season and it'll be just perfect if Nat and Kat win. Geez.
-
Nick really knew his time penalties. At the Roadblock he quoted 4 hr; at the Detour 6 hr. I wonder if production (camera person) staff keep a rule book handy.
During Nick/Vicki's Detour, it would have been prudent to rest until the sun rose and then search again. I think they would have finished in less than 6 hr. If it had been an elimination leg, maybe Phil would have come to them for the Philimination.
They were likely not expecting the NEL. Hindsight is always 20/20.
-
Isn't the time penalty for a Detour 24 hours?

what is the song title they do over and over again in this karaoke??
-
what is the song title they do over and over again in this karaoke??
I tried to listen over and over again but have no clue yet, their singing is awful...
For the detour, I really wonder if the time penalty has been changed because it seems like Nick/Vicki could not choose the other detour (Ding Ding) as they were so far behind and probably everything was closed at that time, but it would also be possible that the race rule just changed.
I am really surprised that not so many people taking pictures of teams at the Avenue of Stars, there are so many tourists every day!
As a local, I feel the tasks in this leg are quite interesting (especially the RB and the tram detour), but too many search tasks and not so much team interactions in this leg

anyone from hong kong here? it looks like it's cantonese song. quite catchy. if anyone knows the song please tell me. wanna download it ;p

Haha! It is quite catchy indeed! :lol:
On a side note, does anyone know the Karaoke song used in TAR 14, when the teams were in the car filled with transvestites? That song was kinda nice too. :-[

You can look in that episode archive? I know it was identified but have no idea what it was called...

Brook & claire find dead guy, and choose Birds.
I think it's just wrong to refer to a legend and icon like Bruce Lee as "dead guy."
I don't know if it was a coincidence, but what would have been Bruce Lee's 70th Birthday was this past Saturday, November 27th, 2010, and he is buried in Seattle.

Dustin & Kandice won 4 legs in Season 11, and 2 legs in Season 10. (Without any Fast Forward too) :tup:
DK :hearts: NK :hearts:
Also their legs all had bunching points. Before season 12, only one other leg of the race was linear without any points designed to have teams start on a more level footing. Since season 12 they have had at least one leg each season with bunching, in fact one leg I think might have had three. That really gives the first team a huge, huge advantage.
Imagine what teams like Eric & Jeremy, Colin & Christie, Rob & Brennan (just a few examples) could have managed if their legs didn't have bunching.

I would have loved to hear if Phil said to Nick and Vicki...
PHIL: I'm pissed to tell you, that this is a Non-Elimination leg. :lol:

I was secretly wishing that too!! :lol:

Actually, I wish Phil had said that he was only pleased to tell Vicki it was a Non-Elimination leg and told Nick that he was disappointed to tell Nick the same thing!
