From Phil: teams soak in OIL in Azerbaijan

From Locations:
Phil gives an interview here:
http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/video?autoStart=true&topVideoCatNo=default&clipId=6750647 (http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/video?autoStart=true&topVideoCatNo=default&clipId=6750647)
according to the above source,
this is what I've got from getting soaked in oil, in Azerbaijan,
There's an 'Oil Therapy Clinic'
http://www.thenational.ae/lifestyle/travel/unrefined-therapy-in-azerbaijan (http://www.thenational.ae/lifestyle/travel/unrefined-therapy-in-azerbaijan)
Unrefined therapy in Azerbaijan
Bathing in crude oil is reputed to soothe the skin and boost energy levels. But, as Luke Jerod Kummer discovers at Naftalan in Azerbaijan, the process of immersion is a far cry from the luxurious spa pampering that most of us enjoy "Why you come sanatoria?" the voice at the end of the phone asks. "Oil," I answer. I'm seated in the doctor's office at the Naftalan Sanatorium, near the battle-scarred territory of Nagorno-Karbakh in Azerbaijan. The health centre is famous for its crude oil baths, which are believed to have medicinal properties and be good for treating skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, easing joint pains; and generally calming the nerves. But as no one here speaks English, I'm none the wiser as to what the basis for these health claims might be. Rather, I'm talking to a stranger down a telephone line as banter ensues between my taxi driver, Emar, the "doctor", receptionist and nurses. People once flocked from all over the USSR to health centres in the small town of Naftalan to spend days soaking in the dark, heavy type of crude that's found in this area but is too expensive to refine. Today, western tourists like me are still an oddity.

Other highlight: In Azerbaijan, there is a man soaking in oil...because that is what they do.

From the Location thread:
There is a reason to believe that the Pitstop of the Baku leg was on Baku's Pier.

Since we have a fair bit of info already on this leg, am going to open this up for discussion a bit early!
Have fun!

GoMap (http://www.gomap.az/info/bwp_map/hpages/index_en.htm?l=mct&pt=800&llz=46.7737,40.0000,8) might be a useful alternative to Google: a little slower to navigate, but more layers of info.

I lost my photoshop, so please excuse my crappy image. :js:
(http://i42.[banned image hosting site].com/2vcahw0.jpg)
In the season preview, we know Bopper/Mark were filmed running in the area of the brown X spot (with the Carpet Museum in the background), so are we speculating that the pitstop is all the way at the end of the pier, by the red circle? Or maybe just at the tip of that pier?
-
If I was a TV producer I would want it at the end of the pier. A foot race to the mat would make great viewing.
Just conjecture.

Thanks Haku!! Perfect!!

The finish line in TAR2; the pit stop in TAR9 (Australia, leg 10) and TAR7 (leg 6).
-
They look to be at a full speed run so maybe they can see that it isn't close. We also don't usually see those kind of shots for a team that is about to be eliminated.

Alenaveda,
You are correct about the East Fort Baker sprint for AR2 and the AR7 race at Makgadikgadi Pans. Howvever, you have made a minor error for AR9. It was episode 9 of AR9 which was the exciting 3-way race to the pit stop at Lake Bennett wilderness Resort.

In the leg 6 (the second hour of episode 5 in the USA), Brian & Greg were in a car crash and they fell down to the last place. They made an extraordinary comeback beating Ray & Deana in a foot race to the pit stop, to avoid elimination.
-
Well, the first place bears a resemblance to the fire temple (http://www.flickr.com/photos/irex/3613674646/) at Surakhany. The second place looks like a training facility for oil rig workers, but I haven't found the logo yet.
-
Confessional: Is this near our pier??

The Four Seasons hotel, looks like there is a pier right in front. (sorry the pic is so big and I meant to quote your post Peach!)

Wow!! Thanks to Slowhatch and LeafsFan we have our FirePit, RB, and PitStop ID'd one-two-three!!
Great work you two!!
Now...is that the BAKU Pier or another one?? ???
-
I think it's our pier. Here's a pano (http://www.360cities.net/image/360view-azerbaijan-baku-boulevard-bridge#19.50,-3.80,70.0); look to the left and zoom in and you'll see some similarities.

Yeah, same pier. And here's the crappy Google Maps version. :lol:

the 'fire' thing looks like an overnight rest at one of those traditional camps
-
What is the spec. with Azerbaijan is it one or two legs?
-

I really hope that it is. I like when the have the overnight rest, on an ongoing leg. My favorite one have been The Amazing Race 9 leg 11 at Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan (Capsule Land Hotel). :luvya: :luvya: :luvya: :luvya:

Hay Stacking vs Oil Scraping Detour??
2 pick HAY??
-
Maybe the hay is another Fast Forward. Phil never said that there was only one on the race on leg 4.

i think its a little too soon to put that idea forward with out any visual evidence
but i agree, it does seem odd that it says TWO teams hit the hay, why would they be so specific?? :duno:

Hay stacking means just what you normally think it means. There are vast pasturelands in Azerbaijan. "Lucerne is the « Shah» of fodders and is grown in all irrigated areas, as well as in mountain and foothill regions with high rainfall. Lucerne is partly fed fresh and partly as hay for feeding in winter. If agro-technical measures are followed in a timely way, lucerne gives 4-5 cuts in a year ( with irrigation that yields 80-120 tonnes per hectare green forage or 10-15 tonnes per hectare dried hay). In dry land agriculture it yields 6-10 tonnes per hectare dried hay from 2-3 cuts."
"In moist spring (which of course does not apply), productivity of pastures is 1.0 - 1.2 tonnes per hectare as dried hay."
Hay is not very useful unless you stack it in some way and move it to where it is needed.

I've made a previous point that Joey and Danny were not featured at all in the season preview at the end of episode 1. Apparentely, there were no future sightings after Italy. I guess its safe to say they're next. :(

It's either them or Mopper because all other teams have been sighted past Baku :jam:
Though an NEL is a remote possibility? :duno:

I think it means that two teams do that Detour because we already can see four teams doing the oil baths. I don't know why more teams would choose the oil but I guess they do ???

Has anyone identified this airport here yet?

If this is the argument scene, then it was already been identified as Nairobi (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,26886.msg716513.html#msg716513). :tup:
Good work, Kevin! That most likely means Joey and Danny are gone this time. :hoot:

Yes, that's it! The teams shown here in Nairobi are Mark/Bopper, Brendon/Rachel, Nary/Jaime, Art/JJ, Vannessa/Ralph, and whether or not that man in the first pic is Dave, we have knowledge that his team reached Japan. So Joey and Danny really are the only ones left. Elimination either in Azerbaijan or Kenya. We can't factor out two possible NEL's in a row though, but this early in the race and not in the F4/F5 is unlikely. :jam:

there he is

I'm fairly confident this proves our next eliminated team is Joey and Danny. I think it's likely to occur in Azerbaijan, 6 non-finale episodes left. 2 non-eliminations. There is a 2/3 chance of Azerbaijan being an elimination leg.

there was 10 teams left back then, now we have 7 and there's 6 teams in that airport. Eureka. :conf:

kevin2012,
There is an alternate possibility, which is for what you are referring to as 2 NELs to be combined into one TBC (To Be Continued) spread over 2 episodes. My guess is that this would happen with 2 episodes in Tanzania.

Yes, you're quite right. I was undoubtedly projecting that these legs ought to be in Kenya but Tanzania is about equally good.

And the water task seems to be a Roadblock , since we only saw Vanessa and Rachel (BB) doing it
Sounded like Brendon with the quote to me.
Water is probably roadblock, hard to tell who is shown though.
I don't see Rachel, but Bopper, Vanessa, and I think Joey or Danny are shown. Def RB. Think it is Vanessa with the fear?
JJ for the title.

Those fonts in the new caps remind me of TAR Design Challenge-II Round-1: Arabian Nights theme... No one recognize Azerbaijan... :lol:
-
the oil bath is at Naftalan Oil Spa... I don't know if there's more than one oil bath and spa in Baku...
The city and spa Naftalan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naftalan) are quite a ways inland; however, the name appears to be franchised. The only match I could find for Baku is the Naftalan Health Centre. (picture here (http://felixfeatures.photoshelter.com/image/I0000UleemllAhks)--the tiling looks similar)
Trivia: after an oil bath, minute amounts of oil will continue to seep from skin pores for up to 3 weeks :eww.
-
ewwww is right!
So....if this leg takes place in BAKU...where are we going to find HAYSTACKS??
photo by Greg Skehan: http://neweyephotos.com/gallery.php?cat=azerbaijan (http://neweyephotos.com/gallery.php?cat=azerbaijan)
-
No evidence for either scenario than the press release. :lol:
-
Metro Hay!! :lol:
-
#SPEC teams pick up the Detour clue at Bibi Heybat Mosque, which would make sense for the distance to the oil spa
-
Do we have picture proof of a hay task?
This:
"TWO TEAMS SEE HOW THEY STACK UP AFTER HITTING THE HAY," Can mean a team might have slept in or something.
This has to be one of the more cryptic clues we have gotten from a press release. I am wondering why so many teams choose the nasty oil task. Maybe the hay thing (if it is a Detour) is a lot farther to drive to so everyone stays together like the speedo detour from TAR19.
-
Just speculating, but I'd have to agree with Aussie with regards to 'hitting the hay' referring to sleeping, or perhaps over-sleeping. That was the first impression I got when I read the press release, but anything's possible. :duno:
-
I can possibly see ONE team oversleeping...but TWO? :duno:
And remember the second detour option should be fairly close to the first, which limits things as well.
-
True - two teams over-sleeping is highly improbable... a very minor possibility... :(
Hopefully there will be a promo shown which reveals the second Detour! :please:
-
Just speculating, but I'd have to agree with Aussie with regards to 'hitting the hay' referring to sleeping, or perhaps over-sleeping. That was the first impression I got when I read the press release, but anything's possible. :duno:
It wouldn't be the first time. Remember Peggy and Claire in TAR3 leg 3 or Chad and Stephanie in TAR17 leg 7.

Aussie didn't meant to say that , i think ?

Let's take a good look at this please?? Who do we see?
Art, Dave, Brendon, maybe Rachel B, ...who is in red?? Is that Mark maybe in the blue?

At first I thought the headlamps were for reading clues, but they appear to be searching the grounds for something.
-
Oh good idea!
So here is our press release again.
First part:
TWO TEAMS SEE HOW THEY STACK UP AFTER HITTING THE HAY, AND RACERS SPONGE UP THE LOCALS
I think they have given us our detours. :lol:
And part 3 is phrased differently, which seems to refer to a real hay stacking?? You would not go to sleep (hit the hay) to see how well you stack up....
Two Teams hit the hay to see how well they stack up and Racers break out the sponges for an oily detour

So much for a hay Detour.
Men covered in oil or a car full of apples?! Where do they come up with stuff like this this season? :lol:
-
Could this mean NEEDLE ON A HAYSTACK?
-

It wouldn't be the first time. Remember Peggy and Claire in TAR3 leg 3 or Chad and Stephanie in TAR17 leg 7.
Well now we know what both detours are I think this is more probable.
-
My guess is that this is the order of decreasing probability:
1. a haystack task involving real haystacks
2. needle in a haystack
3. "hitting the hay" (sleeping)
4. oversleeping
-
So :
Brenchel , Art and JJ , Bopper and Mark (Oil)
Nary and Jamie (Apples)
-
It is weird to look at those apple inside the car's trunk...
but hey... :o they do sell fruits in that way around the market...
I come with some indication of location is at Taza Bazaar :duno:
Fruit seller 1 (http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1272/1113841858_383ce19231.jpg)

-
My guess is that this is the order of decreasing probability:
1. a haystack task involving real haystacks
2. needle in a haystack
3. "hitting the hay" (sleeping)
4. oversleeping
They are already searching for a clue at the Fire Temple and at a carpet shop. Could there be another RI involving searching hay?
-
in terms of Distance, I think I figured the Detour Route....
a good line up with slowhatch find of Naftalan Health Centre and Taza/Teze Bazaar....
also indication of the Carpet Shop located at Old Town Baku, where teams pick up the Detour clue...
-
Spec. so far ....
1. RI : Fly to Azerbaijan, once there, make your way to Atashgah Fire Temple and search the ground for your next clue...
2. RB : OTI-HUET Helicopter Simulation / Underwater Evacuation
3. RI : Make your way to Carpet Shop?, Old Town Baku (Icheri Sherer) - possibly searching clue inside the carpet rolls...
4. DT A : Proceed to Teze Bazaar and find the clue amongst hundreds of apples stack....
5. DT B : Proceed to Naftalan Health Centre and scrub oil to get their next clue....
6. PS : Baku Pier (in front of Baku Carpet Museum)
DT A Location is not confirmed, still spec.

-
I can possibly see ONE team oversleeping...but TWO? :duno:
And remember the second detour option should be fairly close to the first, which limits things as well.
But isn't that what happened in TAR 2 in Brazil.....IIRC, one team (the Grannies) overslept by quite a bit, and a second team overslept by a few minutes but made it to the start on time.
-
WHo knows?? It isn't the detour, that's for sure now!! :lol:
-
Just Spec but i remembr reading that Brenchal was spotted on a plane in mongolia? im now starting to think that thats for the japan epi. also, how after this leg ends dont decoys start running? so we gotta be careful
-
The Mongolia sighting is believed to be false. Teams 4 and 5 are the usual decoys in that they do not go to Elimination Station...usually.
-
I'm still on the "I hope hay stacking is the FF task" train unless proven otherwise. I don't see Dave/Rachel and Joey/Danny in any of those previews, so they may very well be the two teams who went for it? If this is the case, then we know what happens. Dave/Rachel is 1st (again... :res:) and Joey/Danny are eliminated because they're too far behind to catch up. :'(
Also, this clue may have been given in the fire temple, and teams could go for it first thing in the morning (similar to the TAR3 FF on leg 1 that the Oh Brothers won).
-
That's a very good idea. And what joy it would be to see more than one FF per race come back!!
We know it isn't the Detour. We know it isn't the RB. Can't be a Route Info with only two teams trying it.
And logistically I think the Firetower is 20+kms's from Baku central so perhaps there are fields out there ...
I like it!!
-
I would love another FF, but I hope it just isn't literally stacking hay, unless there is some really unique Azerbaijani way of doing it.
-
When Vanessa reads the route info (back in Germany), she mentions "bazaar." Unless there's a bazaar in Fussen, we may need to re-work the task order. Do we have the flights they arrived on?

She's yelling out "Azerbaijan"... ;)

Darn, that's two in a row. :wise I need my ears checked. Thanks.

It would be awesome to see another Fast Forward battle with first place or elimination on the line!

Slowhatch,
No, there are maybe 50 daily flight combinations from Frankfurt to Baku and about the same for Munich to Baku. Most of those combinations connect at Istanbul. There is one nonstop Frankfurt to Baku. See the AR20 Transport thread for the one best flight each from Frankfurt and from Munich.

I really hope that the spec. is true, then it looks like a great leg!!!! :yess: :yess: :yess: :yess:
-
There's a new clip from the episode showing Phil giving his stand-up/description of the "Oil" Detour option. It also shows Art & JJ, Bopper & Mark, and Brendon & Rachel doing the "Oil" Detour.
-
I think this leg is gonna be SO GREAT!!
-
I love weird and unique tasks, but I'm not sure how well this leg will go. The apple Detour seems great, but scraping oil seems a little overboard to me. I guess when the episode airs, I'll be able to make a better judgement of it, but I'm a little apprehensive at the moment... :duno:
-
Latest promo - nothing new.

Thanks so much WP!! Have also added a new 5 sec promo up in post 2!

Anybodies knows if we are gonna have a Fastforward also on this leg?
I personally hope there is, two Fastforwards on a season is great i think!!!!

I don't see anything indicating a fast forward. The one fast forward we got in episode 4 is likley the only one that will appear this season.

The only clue is Phil not saying that was the only FF in the entire race... we'll see.
-
Dave\Rachel and Joey\Danny are the only teams seen doing the hay task. It's also a plausible explanation as to why Fitness is eliminated after several good placements.

Where were they seen? What did I miss?

-
Dave\Rachel and Joey\Danny are the only teams seen doing the hay task. .
NO ONE has been seen doing a hay task. In fact NO hay task has been seen at all yet unless I am behind since this morning...
Yes we can spec that these two teams are doing it due to lack of being seen elsewhere, and a FF seems a very valid reason...but let's all try to be accurate please so the casual readres dont get confused. :lol:

it makes no sense that either of those two teams would be doing the hay stack. neither team was penalized, and there can't possibly be another FF. therefore, since it's not in the previews I've seen, you're shooting blanks man. i imagine dave doing so well on the helicopter challenge, which i just read from this forum and haven't seen anthing for real...joey and danny being the most likely to sleep in...and having those two teams come in first and last this week.

Never say never!! It remains an option!
-
just talking about what seems like an plausible option. however, it is a distinct possibility that both rachel and dave and joey fitness sleep in and are in last place as a result. or, they're both kicking butt...or...one is kicking butt and one is completely losing...or...they can't possibly show every team...or...there is a fast forward...or...etc. so, really, this forum is not helping much =). making me think more than i want. but honestly i like these speculations. all of the tasks were on the preview after the show this past sunday.
-
Silas,
If you don't find RFF of value and consider what we do trivial, consider finding the attitudes and information you seek somewhere else.
-
I'm sorry. I said this was fun. -)

You could be 100% right , so pardon me if i'm wrong , but I don't think we've seen any teams performing the hay task , in preview's or cap's .
-
For me, it doesn't make sense that the two teams with the fittest guys (Dave, who was in the armed forces and "Fitness", for goodness sakes) would sleep in. I know they're gonna be tired and all, but it's only leg 6! I don't think KF would've hit anyone just yet, and I really doubt that it hit these two. So I do not think anyone sleeps in AT ALL. But of course this is all speculation... :conf:
-
Is there any particular reason that we are speculating that it could be Joey "Fitness" & Danny and Rachel & Dave who are the two sleeping in? :duno:
Isn't it possible that other teams could sleep in? :duno:
If the 'hitting the hay' refers to another Fast Forward, then we assume that those are the two teams who possibly went for it. But if 'hitting the hay' refers to sleeping in, it could still be anybody, right? :duno:
-
I have a PIP coming!! I THINK I see everyone at least as far as the fire task, hang on!
-
PIP video up in post 2, caps coming!

PIP caps!
The important thing here is who we think is going into the capsule, esp the second person??

That pic has bothered me for ages. WHY would two people be trapped in there together for a RB?? Couldn't/wouldn't that affect things? I was trying to make Bopper's companion be the capsule coordinator and not JJ somehow.
-
Well I think there are two exits, so the performance of one may/may not depend on the other. If Bopper wanted to hinder tall person from Art/JJ, he can by trying to use the other exit. :lol:
But I mean, in a real helicopter crash in the ocean, your first instinct would be to try to exit towards the door nearest you, no?
And my speculation based on that picture, it seems like tall person from Art/JJ is palming for the door handle so he can exit quickly... :res:
-
This screams INTERSECTION to me.
-
Bopper and whoever is the taller one in Art/JJ.
J.J. is taller than Art
This screams INTERSECTION to me.
There will not be an intersection because there are 7 teams remaining and 7 is and odd number.

One team FF's and the others Intersect?? Interesting ideas! :o

I would still eliminate the possibility of an intersection because no team is REQUIRED to do a fast forward, thus WRP would not plan for an intersection for an odd numbered team leg. The last time a fast forward was offered but not taken was in S14 Leg 7, a charity FF in Phuket, Thailand
-
I didn't say I agreed, :lol: Just fun to think of ALL our scenarios!!
-
Okay, I just added the short 19sec version of Promo 1 that is being shown on TV to post 2 upstream.
TL has pointed out that we do NOT yet know what is up with this helicopter? Why are they showing us this again in a separate frame? WHy is this important? And where does it come in? I tried to get the registration number in a cap and could not.

That's a good point, probably no intersection :(

Could it just be a reference to the Helicopter Underwater Rescue Training? :duno:
-
^My initial thought as well but will they put a helicopter in the air for that? There must be expenses and logistics. Unless it is just a random shot they got and decided to use as filler.
-
I have been impressed that the everything MEANS something this season.
-
Doesn't TAR use helicopters for aerial views of cities? They could have just taken a video of their helicopter.
-
I don't know. But they went to the trouble of adding intense over it. We dont usually get random shots of the helicopters filming the race/city shots. I think this may be something that is a part of the "rescue" though. Remember this is a helicopter evacuation, maybe this is just footage showing us a crash example?? ???

Maybe the RB must be completed with the help of an instructor. I remember teams in many tasks along all the season (the Ford RB in Belgium last season) who requires the involvement of a specialist for safety matters. This could be another example of Occam's razor: "the simplest explanation is usually correct".

I found this pic on flickr of some very uniquely staked hay on the back of a truck in Azerbaijan. I don't know how to post's pic's , so if someone could check it out and see if it's worth bringing over , i'd appreesh. It look's like something that could be a task to me anyway.

Do you think this could be a FF , after looking at it again it look's very difficult to do and very time consuming , unless they don't have to stack as many bales of hay as in the pic.

No one knows that it is a fast forward (if there is one) but it would be cool! We do have the clue about "stack up"

It's all within the realm of possibility!

What fun speculation... a possible FF and intersection. :colors
-
there would be an on location cameraman at the helicopter thing right??
so if the teams' film crew told the helicopter cameraman no team went for the FF, they could easily just have taken the intersection sign away before the teams arrive at the RB, and it would just look like a normal RB, right??
but i have to agree this helicopter thing does scream out 'Intersection'
and the whole hay thing does scream out 'FF', Dave/Rachel and Joey/Danny have not been seen in ANY promos, except the fire dancing, which appears to be an equaliser because every team is there
if am putting my money on an FF and an Intersection, JMO :jam:

We already had this scenario, FF plus INTERSECCION, in TAR10, leg 8. The beauty queens won the leg and the teams who intersected went after the FF (eating the cow lips) finished second and third.
I mean, it would'nt be the first time that both twist appears in a leg.

However in this scenario, as well as Season 11, the Intersection/Fast Forward was in conjunction where an intersected team competed for a Fast Forward. There was also 8 teams instead of the current 7 teams.

You're right; but technically there's only six teams. Art & J.J. are out of the equation, because they already won the previous FF in Turin.
That leaves only 1 team trying the FF and 5 (plus the border patrol agents) in the intersection. But all I'm saying is only a wild spec.
-

J.J. is taller than Art

LOL , Peach beat me to it :groan:
But there is a chance that no team choose FF.I think production won't design a Intersection like this...
-
I think the Intersection is "gone with the wind" and not a good fit here, but you never know. Maybe it is just two at a time for timing or cost or something.
-

Agree, Peach. But it's a funny game to spec in this wild way, including our wishes, only because we don't have any clue on the whereabouts of two teams and we're unable to get a positive identification on the person next to Bopper. We can apply Conan Doyle's quote, "when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth"; but I am closer to my first post of today.
Anyway, we're gonna have the answer tonight.

Re: Stacking and such:
I'm going with the apples are stacked up in the car. There may be some rule with the apples stating that they have to remain stacked while searching through them (i.e. not spilled out on the roadway, etc)?? Nary seems very hesitant to open the door or do anything lol.
And it's weird (to me) that the Oil Detour is just simply named 'Oil'....what would be the name for the other Detour? Apples? Fruit? :lol:
-
There was a season where one team had won a Fast Forward with another team during an Intersection period, and then won an individual Fast Forward on a subsequent leg. (Oswald and Danny, season 11, legs 8 (Poland, during an intersection) and leg 10 (Hong Kong.)
I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned (or I didn't see it in this leg.)
In any event, the show has never had an intersection with an odd number of teams; it would put a solo team at an advantage or disadvantage, depending on the circumstances.
I'd be surprised if there's a second FF this soon if there is to be a second one this season.
As to the helicopter, er may not know why the helicopter shot is in the promos, but it did occur to me that teams might have had to ride in a helicopter before or after the helicopter task. Haven't they done something like that before? I can visualize it (Argentina or Brazil or Guam or Hawaii in an early season, perhaps?) but I don't have time right now to wade through to look. But I do remember something like that.
I think we probably have at least one active route marker task in here somewhere; and the possibility is that the waiting team member at a roadblock gets a helicopter ride. They've done that sort of thing already. And from the preview for the season, there's a hint of a helicopter ride on the last leg of the Race, IIRC, so I think the use of helicopters is quite deliberate, Peach. Just to throw that additional thought in.
-
I do not think it is fair if there is a Fastforward and an Intersection on the same leg. If we have two teams going after the Fastforward and one team waiting at the Intersection for the team there loses the battle for the Fastforward. For me if should be if you loses the battle for the Fastforward, then you have a lot of catch up to do. Not have one team waiting for you at the intersection, so you can battle with them not to get eliminated!!!! :duno: :duno: :duno: :duno:
-
We have NO proof for either a FF or an Intersection. ALL is spec only.
Although the FF fits the info we have:
Two Teams hit the hay to see how well they stack up
And that neither Dave/Rachel OR Danny/Joey are seen after the Fire Tower.
The eliminated teams have been getting a fair bit of visibility in the promos up to now. It is odd to have a team we think may be eliminated have NO visibility at all. What I don't understand is why if J/D go for the (presumed) FF and can't do it...why don't we see them later doing a challenge? Are they so far behind that they don't even get to try the tasks? Do we have a in the field elim by Phil?? Does something ELSE happen?? If the time shadows would be so late that would give them away that would be one thing....but in the capsule shots would be time free.
And I do NOT believe there is an Intersection...fwiw.
-
Intersection seems unlikely to me, although how amazingly funny would it be if the seventh-placed team gets to the Intersection, sees that there is nobody there waiting for them, and realises that they are forced to go complete the Fast Forward! :lol3: That would be interesting, for sure! :lol:

That doesn't seem very sanitary - um to me. Especially the scraped bits.
Oh well, with the carcinogens in the crude oil, the recycled remnants from earlier patients is the least of their worries.

I know this is a bit late but...
bathing in crude oil :crazy:
-
CBS has sometimes played loose and fancy free with their wording in the past. Is it possible that the hay has something to do with the apple detour. Since horses typically eat both apples & hay. And searching for one apple in a car full of apples could be compared to searching for a needle in a haystack? And the apples do seem to be stacked up. Or maybe there is more to the detour than just finding the apple....Just a thought. :duno:

Here is some interesting information. The statement that the crude oil is reused struck me as odd, since this heavy crude is assumed to have no value as a hydrocarbon. The rationale must be that the cost of disposing of 45 gallons of crude oil for each patient is significant and outweighs any health risks. Here is an article on the subject:
Azerbaijan Clinic Uses Crude Oil Baths as Therapeutic Treatments
By Spooky on May 5th, 2011
A clinic in the town of Naftalan, 160 miles noth-west of Azerbaijan’s capital of Baku, has found a therapeutic use for its abundant quantities of crude oil.
Azerbaijan is one of the world’s leading oil exporters, and in the country’s western plains “black gold” has been seeping out of the ground for centuries. In fact, they have so much of the stuff, that in the town of Naftalan, they use the excess crude oil as a cure for various illnesses. It all goes down at the famous Naftalan Clinic, where people from all over the former Soviet Union and even from the Emirates and Europe come to treat various skin diseases, rheumatism, arthritis and even their nerves with crude oil. Doctors here say their miraculous oil therapy is used to trat up to 100 different conditions.
The most popular treatment at Naftalan is the crude oil bath. Patients lower their bodies into 35 gallons of crude oil, at a temperature of 40 degrees. Many of them say the warm oil relaxes their joints and they’d love to spend more than 10 minutes soaked in black oil, but since it contains almost 50% naphthalene, a hydrocarbon deemed potentially carcinogenic by EU regulations, longer sessions could be hazardous to their health. The clinic’s doctors claim millions of people have been treated at Naftalan over the years, and none of them have suffered any complications, as a result. Still, to be on the safe side they limit the sessions to 10 minutes, and no more than a bath per day, during a 10-day treatment.
Naftalan oil bath Azerbaijan Clinic Uses Crude Oil Baths as Therapeutic TreatmentsPhoto via az-naftalan
According to dr. Alif Zulfugar, manager of the Naftalan Clinic, the oil used for therapeutic baths, known as Naftalan, is to heavy for industrial use, so it is only used for clinical purposes. It doesn’t get treated in any way, just loaded up in tankers and delivered to the clinic. Most of it is heated and poured into the basin for baths, but there are other treatments available, as well. The resin from the crude oil is extracted and painted on the patient’s limbs, helping the nervous and blood system and easing joint pain.
Even though the staff at Naftalan Clinic make sure patients are thoroughly cleaned after their baths, they all take a few drops of oil with them wherever they go, as their saturated skin oozes crude oil for a period of two-three days.

I found this pic on flickr of some very uniquely staked hay on the back of a truck in Azerbaijan. I don't know how to post's pic's , so if someone could check it out and see if it's worth bringing over , i'd appreesh. It look's like something that could be a task to me anyway.

We are always glad of the help! This is truly a team effort!

The teams passed by the Old Town Haji Bani bath complex (on their left) on the way up the ramp to the "amazing" carpet shop. (source pano (http://www.360cities.net/map#lat=40.36565&lng=49.83734&name=complex-shirvanshah&zoom=18))

The Yashil Bazar fruit market mentioned on the Detour card is here (http://g.co/maps/6uxrz); still haven't found the hay market yet.

I don't think this shot was really shown in the previous episode... Maybe the first Route Info before a flight to Africa?

So cool if it is, i like it when they do that. I think it is a great way to say goodbay to a country insted of just leave on a plane right from the last pitstop!!!! :conf: :conf: :conf: :conf:

I don't think we saw the pier either.

I lost my photoshop, so please excuse my crappy image. :js:

In the season preview, we know Bopper/Mark were filmed running in the area of the brown X spot (with the Carpet Museum in the background), so are we speculating that the pitstop is all the way at the end of the pier, by the red circle? Or maybe just at the tip of that pier?
They didn't go all the way to where X marks the spot. They fulfilled the boldened prediction I had up there. :D

This looks like a better probability than the mosque for some minor task at the start of the next episode.

What task?

We have no clue, it is just spec.

Working on the maps for TAR 20, but does anyone have a lead on where the Saman Ot Bazary might be?

Thank you Neobie for trying to finish them! Saman Ot Bazary could be very hard to find. Is that the Detour location? Right, that's where the FF was. I'll start looking!

Got it! Once you plot out the power lines and the oil(?) pipelines it's not hard to find the tall buildings in the background...
Now to deal with that pesky Kochi Pit Start!
