This thread is the WORKZONE of the spoilers.
This is where ALL the spoiler speculation/discussion of the TAR 24 race goes, NOT in the LIVE thread. It is where we try to thrash out what the LIVE sightings mean. It is not a whoohoo thread, you can bitch and moan and squeal for joy here (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,29532.0.html) instead!
**EXCEPTIONS**
Let's try again to keep all the confirmed LOCATION info together so it is easier to find. So anything about a location we are sure of can go HERE (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,29541.0.html).
All info about TEAMS can go in the Contestant thread HERE (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,29471.0.html).
As always, per RFF's practices, we do not spoil the start location (if known) or any teams until it is believed that the teams are safely underway. We would never want to put a team in jeopardy or cause them distress or interfere with the actual running of the race. Info on future legs may also occasionally be protected for those reasons. But if you have info to share beforehand , we would love to know, so please PM or email me! Spoilers are treasured!
This thread will be opened once the race has actually begun.

I am starting to think this is an Unfinished Business 2.0 type season as opposed to All Stars 2.0
M/M Teams:
Herb/Nate - Second place in UB
Jet/Cord - Uturned
Dave/Connor - Injury cost them the race
Mark/Bopper - Fell way behind in India
Leo/Jamal - Something is probably coming up in Tar23?
F/F Teams:
Caroline/Jennifer - Out fourth; just missing final leg
Natalie/Nadiya - Out fourth; just missing final leg
M/F Teams:
Margie/Luke - Tea task in India
Brendon/Rachel - Missed helicopter in finale
Joey/Meghan - Uturned twice
John/Jessica - Eliminated with express pass.
I'm thinking it'll be called Redemption.
-
Guangzhou, is just up north from Hong Kong and Macau, both barely 1 hour+ away by train and even ferry.
-
Interesting
Leo/Jamal were uturned at least once.
Redemption or just missed for theme
-
Ok
According to Chateua first destination city Guangzhou, China (I know another China 1st leg :gaah:)
I was looking up departing flights at LAX and there are 2 flights that I am looking at.
Flight 1: China Southern - CZ328 / Delta - DL7831 - Direct to Guangzhou. Departs at 10:30
Flight 2: Cathay Pacific - CX883 / American - AA6121 - To Hong Kong (with a possible ferry connection to Guangzhou). Departs at 10:20
-
We need to look at Eva Air, may be connecting in Taipei.
-
EVAAIR (Such a late timing, No?)
FIRST FLIGHT
22:45 LOS ANGELES
Terminal B
05:30
TUE 19 NOV
TAIPEI
Terminal 2
SECOND FLIGHT
23:25 LOS ANGELES
Terminal B
06:10
TUE 19 NOV
TAIPEI
Terminal 2
No flights to Guangzhou except Nov 20.

I'm not going to criticize the casting until we learn what the rationale was; and I do agree on the surface, it does appear to be an "unfinished business" type casting; however, that could be only partially true.
And for the record, Survivor has brought back one contestant four times, until they finally won, and y'all do remember who that was.
Guangzhou hasn't been the location of tasks, but teams did have to fly there in order to reach Guilin in season 14. China is so vast with its numerous provinces and cultural differences throughout the country that it wouldn't be difficult to pick a previously unvisited locale.
I wouldn't mind India this season either, especially if Indonesia would be the alternative. And the first location does make Laos or Burma an option, and I would love to see one or both visited this season.
-
We need to look at Eva Air, may be connecting in Taipei.
There are 2 flights going to Taipei.
1: Eva - BR15 / US - US4835. Departs at 10:45
2: Eva - BR1 / China - CI7 (and 4 other codeshares). Departs at 11:25
-
China Southern (DIRECT)
Los Angeles 10:30p
Guangzhou 05:40
Malaysia Airlines
Los Angeles 02:40p
Guangzhou 12:10a ???
-
The EVA Air flights to Taipei are more legit IMO. :stare
-
China Southern (DIRECT)
Los Angeles 10:30p
Guangzhou 05:40
This one is I think correct.
-
I think it will be these two then.
(http://i44.[banned image hosting site].com/jh3tc2.jpg)
But both arriving same time? ???
-
That's the same flight, Joab. Delta and China Southern are both part of SkyTeam so they codeshare.
-
I have some itineraries posted, on top of the direct flight, in the Transport thread (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,29521.msg950675.html#msg950675). I believe they cover all the plausible possibilities that arrive in Guangzhou before noon on 18 Jun.
-
Guangzhou Evergrande just won AFC Champions League recently. Maybe this is one factor for choosing this city? :lol:
-
If they connect through Taipei, there is one that arrives at 10:15, the second is at 15:15.
So I hope not, too far apart. EVA air.
-

OK! :funny: I was wondering why was it so weird.

Zouly, I think the tweets are just about the response to the initial LAX shooting. I am seeing reports that it has come out how long it took medics to get to the fallen TSA agent at the initial shooting. I am hoping that is it.

Okay thanks, so it's not an actual happening then :whew

Some (horrible) pictures here: http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Slowhatch/library/Misc (I don't think the CIA will be calling anytime soon :hides :funny:)
The teams I recognized: Globetrotters, Twinsies, Marge/Luke, Cowboys, Connors and the Internets. The teams I didn't recognize are the green team, the aqua team (country singers?) and possibly Mark/Mallory. The flights at the counter that I noticed were BR15 and CX883.
Green looks like Jessica & John to me, aqua looks like to Caroline & Jennifer.
-
Anyone know is in the background of the picture of Globetrotters? Looks like Margie.
-
Is it true they have 12 teams? The last one was in season 15. Isn't Mallory/Brooke confirmed?

Well we are still waiting on sightings of Brooke I eblieve.

Never mind - it's Brendon and Rachel :lol:

really hope we get some pics of brooke with mallory soon to confirm it :cheer: :cheer:

The race started this afternoon at Cougar Stadium at College of the Canyons in Valencia.
The UCLA marching band was there to send the teams off.
They played the TAR theme in brass glory.
The destination county is China. The city is Guangzhou.
Might not be relevant but
As I follow pac 12 college football, UCLA played on Friday night thus CBS was able to use the Bruins marching band today, whereas USC Trojans marching band (which is more distinct with their uniforms) wasn't available as USC played Stanford at home at the coliseum.
Just an observation
-
Let's talk about the upcoming route, which will likely be a classic four-continent race through 8 countries in Asia, Africa, and Europe.
China has been confirmed as the first destination, which wasn't surprising. The question is will there be two legs in China; I lean towards yes.
I'm also expecting to see India (last visited in TAR 20). This leaves one or two more countries in Asia, probably the Southeast region. Likely candidates are Malaysia, Laos, or Thailand.
There will probably be two legs in one African nation. Rwanda could be a possibility.
Europe is completely up in the air. I don't expect Western Europe; at best Italy (or perhaps Spain) would serve as a penultimate leg. I think we should look at southeastern Europe.

No Australia or New Zealand? :'(

I remember I posted in pre-TAR24 Speculation thread way back in October, South Africa has getting possibility a chance to visit there and will have two legs in one African nation (Port Elizabeth and Cape Town; like HaMerotz LaMillion 1, TAR Australia 1 and TAR Ukraine 1). The country was last visited TAR 7 (a long time ago).
Both are beautiful places, Cape Town is really majestic with historic buildings.

Rwanda couldn't visit there due to clashes in neighboring Burundi and Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Probable destination:
North America -> Asia -> Africa -> Europe -> South America -> North America
5 continents, 8 foreign countries with no new countries ala TAR21, TAR22 and TAR23.

I think this is a season with teams who made history
Cowboys: Speedbump --> 1st
Team JJ: EP :res:
Youtube: u-turned twice
Afghanimals: u-turned twice + survived
Margie & Luke: too obvious to mention
Globetrotters: ???
CaroJen: ???
Cancer: broken Achilles --> withdrew
NaNa: stole rockers' money
Brendan: ???
MarMal: ... ???
prob'ly not all ???

They didn't have the U-turn in TAR 11. So no U-turns. They did have the Yield and Eric/Danielle were Yielded twice.
-
Anyway, is Guangzhou a definite location? Or it's just a transit city to somewhere else?

That's a great idea for an AS season! Though I don't see Nana, Caroline & Jenn, Brenchel and a bunch other teams making history.
-
I'll put my speculation for the first leg (if they're staying in Guangzhou) here:
- Based on the pattern of 1st episode, which showcasing adrenaline themed task, the location I can only think is Canton Tower, which is the tallest structure in China. Maybe either rappelling up/down, or taking a bungee jump on the tower.
- The next task I speculate is relating with Cantonese opera (in any way that sometimes we can't think of).
- There might be an active Route Marker task.
- Finally, I speculate the Pit Stop location is the Temple of the Six Banyan Trees.
This is my PURE speculation, so this can be incorrect. ;)
-
Next stop after Guangzhou could have a possibility being Hong Kong, which is easily accessible by train or ferry or bus.
-
Yes, both Hong Kong and Macau are possible. Even by ferry.
-
Yes, both Hong Kong and Macau are possible. Even by ferry.
Why not Shenzhen? Window of the World and Splendid China Folk Village are really good! :)
-

Why not Shenzhen? Window of the World and Splendid China Folk Village are really good! :)
Yes and Shen Zhen of course. But Shen Zhen and Guang Zhou are VERY VERY similar industrial cities so I'm not sure... Hong Kong and Macau on the other hand offer a totally different type of city landscape. They haven't been to Macau since Allstars (?) and Hong Kong since TAR 17.. anywhere is possible! :)
-
Maybe Cambodia after the first leg or second? Phnom Penh or Siem Reap- they haven't visited it in awhile (I'm thinking Vietnam won't be visited since they did it 2 seasons ago)
If they visit Hong Kong I have a few friends who live there that I regularly communicate on email with.
One of my mates is in Phnom Penh right now as a teacher chaperone for student trip till Saturday.
Likelyhood is that they will stay in the same country for two legs, noticing a trend this season (Chile for 2 legs, then UAE for 2 legs and Indonesia for the upcoming 2 legs after tomorrow's episode)-
Just pure spec.
-
Since I *once again* wrongly posted in the live sightings thread, I'll repost this here. :P
I can't see the cowboys at all in there? I dont think there on
The Cowboys were there; they were standing just a few feet from me in the food court chatting with Connor. My camera only produces 40 min. of video so I concentrated on the teams I didn't know. (I should have brought a normal camera; people were taking cellphone pictures with/of the racers and production didn't pester them :groan:)
Slowhatch, did you see Mallory with her teammate? :)
-
I'm thinking a double leg in China - maybe a KOR leg 1 a la UB? Start in Guangzhou and then most likely head to either Macau, Hong Kong or Chengdu for leg 2 before heading south to either Malaysia, Thailand or Laos (let's hope for the very latter!) before flying to India

YouTube was actually the first team to be U-turned twice.
-
Mallory and Mark :cheer: Wonder what happened to Bopper?
-
Seeing John & Jessica interact with a lot of the teams from the pictures we've seen. I'm curious to know about alliances!!
-
The only exciting team for this season seems to be Mark & Mallory.
I'm also looking forward to seeing Brenchel, Nana and Jessica & John, but I'll just be rooting for others to get eliminated one by one....
I usually like most of the teams in a season and so it's always sad to see the first boots, but now it's just the opposite, can't wait to find out who's out first :lol:
-
WOW Mallory and Mark (from Bopper and Mark) are on the same team?! so random.. :colors
-
I'm thrilled to see Mark and Mallory...
What I'm worried is... has something happened to Bopper? :(
-
Meh. I would've preferred Mark/Bopper together, but we'll see how things work with Mallory.
-
Peach, any starting line photo?
I may think Mallory and Brook Mark and Boopper might be last 2 things complete starfing line so they must switch partner, and maybe their other half eliminated???
I dunno
-

For real. Or any of the other three-peaters. That would mean everyone having a pre-existing relationship of some sort
-
No. ^^
-
So far we don't have pictures of Leo & Jamal and Cowboys am I correct in saying?
-
No. The same person that tweeted yesterday about seeing the afghanimals at the airport said he'd post pics, but nothing happened yet.
-
So far we don't have pictures of Leo & Jamal and Cowboys am I correct in saying?
As I understand it, Slowhatch and Cheatau eyeballed all the teams at LAX, and while there doesn't appear to be photos at the moment, they did confirm that Jet/Cord and Leo-Jamal were 2 of the teams seen at LAX.
I'm guessing that we'll have eyeballs on the scene in China soon enough based on the work of TAR detectives in training in recent past seasons in China.
And as a note of interest about the Cowboys -- Cord retired from competitive bull riding this summer.
The only team that I had hoped would be on this season was Jamyes-James since they didn't win their original season and would be in need of redemption....and would have been a very popular choice for inclusion.

I would have loved for Jamyes and James to have been in this season for another chance. :(
-
I think Bopper is a single Dad, and has a child with health problems. Just hope everything is or will be okay for them.
-
Guangzhou possible places for
Route info Canton Tower Roof Observatory, or Temple of the 6 Banyan Trees.
Route Baiyun Mountain (White Cloud) by Cable Car
Zhujiang Brewery tasks
Ersha Island with School and Museums task
Shamian Island with Catholic Chapel and Protestant Church task
If Wikipedia right

Margie is in blue and Carojen I think is in the top right corner (aqua), so they're on the second flight I think.

Regarding the most recent pic uploaded above...the girl in the light blue that Margie is looking at doesn't look blonde enough for Caroline/Jenn, right? Could it be a twin? I know one has blonde in her hair now.

I think it's a twin. Yesterday, they only had pink tank tops on, no jackets. In the CaroJenn pics, they had light blue tank tops on, not jackets. (not saying they don't have them, just pointing it out)

NEXT TEAM IN TAIPEI!
-
http://instagram.com/p/g1WrDjIPmV/
So that means the teams on the Taipei flight are so far
Caroline & Jennifer
Flight Time & Big Easy
Margie & Luke
Brendon & Rachel
-
Natalie & Nadiya were seen atCathay Pacific's counter, and Jessica & John were at EVA Air's counter (:
-
The teal jacket person in the Margie pic is NOT Caroline or Jennifer (since it is different colors from the later picture), so it is either another racer or a non-racer.
-
Natalie & Nadiya were seen atCathay Pacific's counter, and Jessica & John were at EVA Air's counter (:
Think Joey was also spotted at EVA Air
-
The teal jacket person in the Margie pic is NOT Caroline or Jennifer (since it is different colors from the later picture), so it is either another racer or a non-racer.
It doesn't matter they were spotted at TPE in a separate photo.

So teams on the first flight are:
Flight Time & Big Easy
Margie & Luke
Brendon & Rachel
Caroline & Jennifer
Natalie & Nadiya
Joey & Meghan
is this right?? lol
-
Based on Chengmd's sighting of the teams at Taipei, we can confirm:
Later flight via Taipei
Luke/Margie
Caroline/Jennifer
Brendon/Rachel
Herbert/Nathaniel
Natalie/Nadiya were seen at the Cathay counter, so it's more likely they made it on the earlier flight.
-
So teams on the first flight are:
Flight Time & Big Easy
Margie & Luke
Brendon & Rachel
Caroline & Jennifer
Natalie & Nadiya
Joey & Meghan
is this right?? lol
I think the Taipei flight is the 2nd flight.
Also, Natalie & Nadiya and Joey & Meghan have not been spotted in Taipei, although the latter is probably in Taipei. Natalie & Nadiya, i don't know.

CX flight 6782 is on Final Call for the flight to Guangzhou it will be leaving in 4 mins from Hong Kong :D
-
I think Laos will be the next destination after Guangzhou and maybe another South Asian leg after that but I think one of the safer Stans or any former Soviet country will be featured in one of the coming legs

I think it is Jennifer. She has the same jacket and has her hair the same style in the pic talking to Brenchel
-
so the tapai flight is the 2nd flight and so far we no
Luke/Margie
Caroline/Jennifer
Brendon/Rachel
Herbert/Nathaniel
made that flight & we dont no who made the first flight etc is that correct?

Do you guys think the first leg is NEL or KOR??

I want to see if they go with the EP again...

Jess & John: "guise give it to us we need 2 redeem ourselves!"
I think they'll stay with 2 though. I feel like it will be NEL since UB was KOR.

last comment.. on my same flight to taipei
-
The first flight (the one connecting through Hong Kong) is currently scheduled to arrive 15 mins late reducing the advantage to 1 hour. Hopefully this means we're in for a close leg, I prefer the teams on the second flight.

Excited!! Waiting updates from Guangzhou fans!!
Is it possible for teams take a ferry from Guangzhou to Macau or Hong Kong, after this leg (maybe a TBC). It take less around one hour for the journey.
Then in Macau/Hong Kong, a lot of flight can take teams to countries like Thailand, Nepal, Laos, etc.

THe park tweet might be fake. The tweeter has only one tweet.
Yeah, I kinda think like that too, coz Phil just barely get out of the plane ???
-
I also think the park tweet is a fake. How would the guy know where the teams were heading?
-
Haixinsha is near Canton Tower
possible RB/RI task before Pit Stop? (ex: find Pit Stop, then jump off tower)
-
he could have overheard teams telling cab drivers.... :groan:
-
I can't tell you how rare it is to get Bertram in a in-Race image; that confirms that Bert is usually on that leading flight to the first city with Phil.

Well Cowboys are official. Now waiting on pictures of Leo & Jamal.
-
So Cowboys were on 1st flight?

I hope the cowturds get lost on that tram they are on currently...

Cowboys in trouble
The metro is slower than taxi

The Cowboys have a history of recovering from those sorts of issues when they get to the tasks. They tend to get through tasks very very quickly.

idc I'm just happy they got help up :)

Why is metro in Guangzhou slower than a taxi? ???
-
Do we have any new photos from the teams tat were on the Taipei flight?
-
Brendon&Rachel、Globetrotters、 Mark&Mallory are all on the metro now~~Bad Way！
Add：Maggie&Luke
Any Idea where John/Jessica Joey/Meghan and Caroline/Jennifer are at? Did they take the taxi or the metro?
-
So teams are now in China, not in Taiwan??????????????????????????
-
Why is metro in Guangzhou slower than a taxi? ???
Because taxi's don't stop at different subway stations :groan:
But taxis suffer from traffic jam while metro doesn't.
-
So what about Jet/Cord if Caro/Jen . Joey/Meg and John/Jess are in the back?
-
So teams are now in China, not in Taiwan??????????????????????????
They only changed planes in Taiwan....
-
It will depend on traffic and taxi driver so you don't know Metro or Taxi is better.
-
Do a Congestion in Guangzhou Google image search and you will know why some teams chose to take the metro. Not only that, depending your race life on a cab driver who probably doesn't speak English sounds totally attractive to me. Teams would have properly researched how to get to the location via public metro during their waiting time in Taiwan or what and since all of them are travelling together, why not?
-
Wonder what's going on with Afghanimals?
-
I'd rather Brenchel get the express pass before the Cowboys get it :funny:
-
Wonder what's going on with Afghanimals?

Wonder what's going on with Afghanimals?
They have trouble on their way to Canton Tower
-
Just a note...
Margie & Luke have raced 5 legs in China. This is their 6th.
Jet & Cord have raced 4 legs in China. This is their 5th.
Flight Time & Big Easy and Mallory have raced 2 legs in China. This is their 3rd.
Natalie & Nadiya raced 1 leg in China, and this is their 2nd.
Brendon & Rachel raced through India & Japan (kinda an intro to culture shock etc)
Leo & Jamal raced through UAE, Indonesia & Japan
Everyone in the TAR22 Crew have only been to Vietnam & Indonesia(Jess & John only visited Indo)
Could explain why Cowboys "made up time" and Margie/Luke are doing decent :)

According to JasonTennisFan on Survivor Sucks, they just popped up at a RB in 3rd

Cowboys win the first leg :<3 Feeling Tim & Marie now :<3

JasonTennisFan on SurvivorSucks reckons Cowboys will give the second pass to NaNa or to Margie & Luke.
Also NaNa arrived at the second roadblock and swore quite loudly apparently :funny:

Ferris Wheel "Luck Task"; the wheel takes 30 minutes to spin a complete round. There's 16 cubicles and if they only put a clue in a few of it, that may account for why it's taking some teams so long? :gaah:
Similar task on the finale of The Amazing Race Australia 2.

-
Weihen have knock off his duty.. Look like no newsflash from him :(
-
Dave & Connor No. 3 :<3

From this, it looks more of a raising steps area, so something to do with steps? Where is the wheel on the top platform (being that this is the top platform of the Guangzhou Canton Tower?
-
The capsules surround the top platform.
-
According to JasonTennisFan on Survivor Sucks, Margie & Luke finished Roadblock, Mark & Mallory arrived and Mark yelled "Mother thingy"

NOOOO TWINNIES :( STAY STRONG PLEASE BE A NEL <33333

bye twinnies...good riddance.

One day I will find a cure for your Twinniealousy.

Cowboys :hearts: :cheer: :<3
-
My guess about the cowboys and their 2nd EP:
They are not giving it too: Globetrotters (because of u-turn) :funny:
-
*Praying for NEL* :'( :'( :'(
-
Do we have proof Joey/Meghan had a penalty??
-
If they check in and wait and check in again, they got penalty.
-
Cowboys :hearts: :cheer: :<3
-
So even YouTubers took a penalty, the twins still couldn't catch up?
-
Twinnies arrived 10 mins after Youtube according to Sucks updates or thereabouts. If there was a penalty, NaNa survived.
-
NaNa STILL IN THE RACE, PLEASE! PLEASE ! )-** (PRAYING)
-
Did Joey & Meghan have a penalty, as per the picture someone (IDK :lol:) posted of them sitting down?
Or was that taken after they checked-in? ???
-
Did Joey & Meghan have a penalty, as per the picture weihen posted of them sitting down?

As far as I read, they didn't check in again, so there was no penalty.
-

I don't think they got penalty,should be taken after checking in(btw,I didn't post this pic)
-
I think they are not.. They just talking to Phil for 15 mins when Nana arrive, so they sit aside to wait for NANA to finish and left together
Maybe they wanted to talk to NANA?
-
Wow. I'm glad youtube did not get the boot, as much as I find Joey annoying. Meghan is cool.
-
i hope Youtube team do receive a penalty
so their fans can just shut up as soon as the season started
i pity Meghan though, for racing with a horrible teammate like Joey.
Anyway i keep seeing that people said the cowboys are homophobes?
i maybe overlooked this, in what season/episode indicates their homophobia?
-
Google Jet & Cord Homophobia something is bound to come up. Also XXXXXX at the first three lines of that post <3

I doubt it . From the photo proof we got Meghan was smiling . I doubt anyone would be smiling if their race is on the line from a penalty .

WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE FILMING OF THIS SEASON OF THE RACE?! :stare
It seems like those 'angry-bird' cameramen which didn't hesitate to threatened you if you get too close, but turned out that fans could take a picture together with the racers, even Joey&Meghan and Brenchel posed out in front of camera :groan:
-
I'm soo amazed with (another, yet soo close) shot of our guangzhou detective team :colors
Is this the closest distance we ever got on the actual race? Capturing the actual clue?! From the hand of the racers I think :colors
Proud of u guys :hrt:

Is it confirmed that Leg 1 was NEL or elimination?
-
Is it confirmed that Leg 1 was NEL or elimination?
Elimination.

Is it confirmed that Leg 1 was NEL or elimination?
Elimination.
:'( :'( :'( :'( :'( I would've never thought that NaNa would be first to be eliminated.
-
I wonder if there was a starting line task which determined which teams got on which flight.
One factor which IMHO indicates this is the wording in the extra information sheet weihen posted earlier. It said "First flight (Teams with Cathay Pacific ticket jacket)". To me this sounds as if teams received tickets instead of picking them up at the counter. Or, and more likely, they received empty ticket jackets in the starting line challenge and then had to pick up their real tickets at the counter on the airport.
-
So what time do the teams set off on Leg 2?
-
Taipei and Hong Kong were also connecting cities, is it possible to rule them out from next location likely visited? ???
-
So what time do the teams set off on Leg 2?
Per 12 hours pit-stop,
Jet and Cord - 1am (estimated)
.
all other teams
.
Joey and Meghan - 2.15am (estimated)

Thanks Weihen and david10208! Really amazing work! I would love to see them racing live!
Would they come to Hong Kong after Guangzhou? If they do I really have to track them down!!
-
Please note that 12h is not a rigidly followed rule any more, although it does happen more often on the first Pit Stop of each season.
For TAR 23 we've had:
12h (Iquique), ~26h (Santiago), ~13h (Lisbon), 0h (Svolvaer), ~16h (Sopot), ~14h (Vienna), and ~21h (Abu Dhabi).

The mothership TAR no longer has a set time period of 12 hours for the mandatory rest period between legs. The amount of time between arriving teams adjusted for any unannounced penalties and credits will be maintained to release teams for the next leg,
-
omg, if they're staying in China for Leg 2, I hope they hop on over to the ghost mall in Dongguan! :cheer:
-
I just noticed the team that was on pretty much everybody's wishlist to comeback for a possible All-Star season is the first one to go... That's ironic. :funny:
-
Sounds like this first leg was very challenging and I hope it's a sign of things to come. As it's an all stars type season it goes without saying that it should be harder.

I agree, I think we need to accept the cast as it is and move on so we can look forward to the locations/challenges/races. Hopefully there will be a lot more close legs. The only thing is I think when the legs increase in difficulty some of the teams will fall by the wayside leaving the teams who are stronger at the tasks left standing (i.e. the cowboys) and no one wants that...

Ikr. People on sucks are like " This is probably the worst season ever " or "This is the worst cast ever " or " This is the worst all-stars season ever"
Just because the twinnies got eliminated last night and YouTube didn't. If YouTube didn't get eliminated everyone would be like " What a great start to this season " It's pathetic. I can tell this season is probably gonna be one of the best competition wise we have ever had. I mean look at the teams. They all finished within 1 hour and 30 mins. It's seriously going to be season to watch.
-
It's already super competitive and I love it!! Teams showing up to roadbloacks swearing? :conf:
I'm excited to see how challenging the second leg is.
-
I'm new to this whole tracking the race as it goes thing. I understand how it's easier to track the leg when it begins in the US but how quickly is it possible to track the teams when they start a new leg (e.g. how quickly do we know when the leg has started/where the teams are heading next?).
-
It looks like a strong group. I would imagine that Caroline and Jen will have a tough go, being the only all female team, but rooting for them anyway.

They are a somewhat strong group but as soon as the leg comes where you have to navigate throught a city will be the death of them.

Honestly the cast is not that bad, maybe a couple of teams shouldn't be labelled 'all-stars' but still each team is fun in their own way. I'm sure they will grow on us as the race keeps going. :conf:

You never know. It's different in any ocasion. Mostly you have to rely on places like Twitter or Instragam or such as to dig in between thousand of posts to discover the whereabouts of them. It's a job that requires a lot of patience and effort, specially in places where those pages are not so easy to reach for the locals, or the languaje barrier can be an obstacle. It wouldn't be the first time that we lost track of the racers in some point outside the US for days, and then suddenly we have news of them again in a different place. And if we're lucky, we can have the help of local fans who track them on the site - like it was on the first leg of this season -, although not always this happens.

Oops complaints belong on the bitch, etc thread.

Actually the bitch,whine, and moan thread is the place for that.
Sounds like this first leg was very challenging and I hope it's a sign of things to come. As it's an all stars type season it goes without saying that it should be harder.
I can tell this is going to be a great season! Hard Tasks. Exciting Teams and some close calls! We had one last night and it was only the first leg!
As much as People are going to complain about the cast, I reckon this season will be the most challenging the race has done and it will especially be if the Race is long.
Ikr. People on sucks are like " This is probably the worst season ever " or "This is the worst cast ever " or " This is the worst all-stars season ever"
Just because the twinnies got eliminated last night and YouTube didn't. If YouTube didn't get eliminated everyone would be like " What a great start to this season " It's pathetic. I can tell this season is probably gonna be one of the best competition wise we have ever had. I mean look at the teams. They all finished within 1 hour and 30 mins. It's seriously going to be season to watch.
Sucks is correct though, I abhor all teams at some level except for three.
Just because you don't like the teams doesn't mean the season or the teams are horrible. You don't know them .
I abhor them on screen sorry :P
there ya go!
-
nvm
-
So the guy who was following the teams during leg 1 (JasonTennisFan) over on Sucks just commented:
"Looks like leg 2 we are still in my hometow! :)" (sic)
Is leg 2 imminent?
-
Sounds like this first leg was very challenging and I hope it's a sign of things to come. As it's an all stars type season it goes without saying that it should be harder.
TAR10 was still more challenging than TAR11 and TAR18 was relatively easy.
I wouldn't hold my breath on this being more challenging than other seasons.

I'm expecting an equilizer of some sort, but the fact that the cowboys are leaving in the day doesn't support that....
Survive, Team Youtube! :cheer:

oooh nice! Hopefully a calligraphy challenge!
OMG me too! Meghan would totally own that challenge!

I'm pretty sure people on here will explode with happiness if Natalie & Nadiya are spotted running this leg :funny:

According to fans at the locale Afghanimals seemed to have ripped a lot of money from fans by pretending that they'd run out of money. Today fans are prohibited from following teams.
"Next time they come to China there's no need for the crew to present money to teams for this leg 'cause fans will give them." --A fan from Baidu Forum

Probably. Davechel overshadow all the teams in that season and we couldn't see the others in their real dimension, like Brendon & Rachel.
-
Well with 2 of 4 teams I actually care to watch again gone in the first two legs quite possibly, I fear I cannot be bothered with this season. What a crap cast :( if they wanted three timers it should have been the best of the best. If they wanted YouTube, NaNa, Brenchel etc. back then they should have filled it with Bill/Cathi, Brook/Claire, Maxie, Chynona etc. and if they said no, then they should have waited another season. Not pleased at all with S24.
-
Keep shouting NEL, fans in China!!!! <3<3<3

Keep shouting NEL, fans in China!!!! <3<3<3

I mean clearly Cowboys, Globes and Marg/Luke have an advantage. They should have put them back on for Season 30-ish with the likes of other teams deemed best of the best, bringing back Charla/Mirna, BQs etc. from the past. This season should have been with:
Brook/Claire
Snowboarders
Bill/Cathi
Brenchel
Bopper/Mark
NaNa
Chippendales
Country Singers
YouTube
Pam/Winnie
Chynona
Dave/Connor
Tim/Marie
Leo/Jamal
with John/Jessica as alternates.
Gosh its annoying.

That last post on the sightings sounds like a set up for a NEL!

So after 2 legs in China, they must fly to a new country, considering the area around...
Indonesia - Visited too often in recent seasons
Vietnam - Went in TAR22
The Philippines - may not be good choice now because of the typhoon
Singapore - not sure what new places they can go there...
Malaysia - Likely
India - Likely
Thailand - Likely
And there are 2 places which I wish they will go! It's been a long time TAR visits new countries!
Myanmar - now more feasible to visit
Nepal - not saying they planned to have a leg there before?

Myanmar could be good, I know that Top Gear were just over there filming their special and managed to go under the radar.
-
I think Indonesia :wall: or the Philippines :hearts: is next.
-
If the next country is Indonesia, i hope they visit a place that is not in Java or Bali.Maybe like Bangka Island, or Borneo or Makassar or Bunaken and do a snorkeling/diving challenge there :cheer:
If they do visit Indonesia, can i join the live tracking? lol
-
If Indonesia again, then 5 times in row and most of teams has been in Indonesia racing before.

Either 5 times or 4 times in a row. TAR didn't visit Indo in S20. ;)
Just want to add this from my last post: I wish the spoiler & detective crew will be great again if they visit Indo this season. :hearts: :cheer:

Agreed with Brendon & Rachel, as I assumed that they would've done well (not necessarily Romber TAR7 style, but better than how they eventually ran TAR20). With N & N's exit, it'll help, but who knows how J&J will perform later on

I'm gonna guess that another big favorite will be eliminated in 9th place. :res: :crazy: :umn:

According to my friend racer, the last time Phil called ALL the teams to the mat was TAR 15.
And it happened to be when MARIA/TIFFANY WERE NELED.

I sure want to keep the hope alive but a few teams crying and not rejoicing is just.. :'( #pessimisticjobby
I'm speculating one of the Southeast Asian countries next. Doubt it's Philippines, Indonesia, Cambodia or Vietnam.
My hunch is Thailand or Malaysia. :stare

I actually think it COULD be Philippines. Manila isn't affected by the typhoon, and they could have tasks related to typhoon relief like TAR 19 Thailand.

Maybe they could do a switchback about the carabaos in TAR5, but I doubt it would be as dramatic
-
Or if they go to the Philippines, they might do a task related to the recovery efforts and they could contribute in some way. Kind of like how they painted the school in Ghana in TAR17.

When is the last time a NEL was in Leg 2? They have been eliminated. All NEL's are pre-planned. Doesn't matter what team comes in last. The first NEL is most likely going to be Leg 4.

Maybe the same pit greeter means a 2 hour premiere. The race sounds really exciting with races to the pit.

Yea, I know they're all pre-planned, that's my point, as far as I can remember there's never been an NEL on Leg 2, maybe there was a slight chance this season was the time for it. But obviously not :gaah:
I'm thinking a NEL Leg 3 maybe? or a continue racing leg?
They had 2 in Unfinished Business, so they may have 1 here too?

What makes you think that leg 4 is going to be the non-elimination one?
-
If they are heading to Malaysia, I wonder if they'll head to Europe or to Oceania next afterwards.
-
Malaysia is roughly due south of their current location, so nothing is foreclosed going through Singapore; but I think Oceania to the east is unlikely since it would involve a lot of backtracking later unless the route is like TAR 7, and everyone seemingly complained about that route not being roughly a circumnavigation of the globe.

I actually have no problem with unique routes like that, They are quite fun in my opinion.

I was just thinking that! :hearts:
-
Considering Hong Kong is only ~120km away from Guangzhou I really hope Joey & Meghan consider going there and arrive like 3 hours before other teams...
-
Brunei is very close to where they are going in Malaysia, but its filled with red tape.
Could they go through this somehow?

I think there are still filming restrictions there. ??? Would be a complicated route just for a transit.

Yes, and the orangutan preserve. First thing I thought of as soon as I saw the post in the live sightings thread. And also the site of one of the biggest self-navagation blunders ever, and a stroke of luck for a second team at the same time.

No more news about what teams are doing now?

That was a joke you didn't read the part about Joey getting on his knees? That's unreliable. That would also be a short leg because they left around 7 and got their around nine which would only be a 2 hour leg?
-
Just some Youtubers haters made it up @_@ How can you believe that without any proof?

As much as I want Youtube to be eliminated and as soon as possible, There needs to be proof.

well !?!....
so far no update the photo about what's going on in Malaysia leg??? (or even worst a HOAX destination?!? )

Yeah it's really weird since Malaysian people are really familiar with The Amazing Race (remember a local shouted, "Go, Charla!" in All Stars?). I guess teams are now in remote places or something :idk

They are prob just out of sight for now, it happens every race. And after such an intense couple of days it is a letdown. But hey, people twitter in Malaysia, unlike China, so we may get lucky! And...there is always the next leg! :hearts:

I reckon we will spot them in each country or heading to each but we won't have the results of the leg spoiled and it also depends on where teams go to be honest.

I am confident that we need to treat Leg 3 in #KotaKinabalu #Malaysia just like we treat Polynesian islands (Tahiti),
Sabah is a very diverse tourism destination, ranging from natural wildlife park, jungle, world war monuments, memorials and caves & bunkers, and consist of many surrounding islands and water resorts and white sand tropical beaches...
(I just googled Rasa Ria Resort) and it was a wonderful place and they have OrangUtan conversation as well...
We need to look at some photo-blogs, travel blogs, or other platform than social networks...
and it might appear later on, when those tourists/travelers get back home or back to their hotel and start writing their journey and experiences :hrt:

Sabah is a tourist attraction, but you can say it's kind of rural as well. It's like Koh Samui is to Thailand in comparison.. not the main few cities but people go there for the beautiful wildlife and beaches.
-
That tweet says Thursday they will be handing out clues as well? So if its to be taken as a sighting then double leg in Malaysia as well.
That is a huge jump. First we don't know if they have a HOO when they arrive. Second they could be confused on the dates. Third they could have an early leg Thurs and move out 10-12 hours later. Double leg is a jump, imo.
My guess is one leg only then moving on...

Sabah has the same timezone as me in Samarinda (we're at the same Borneo island, eastern part of it),
So if they landed about 6.00AM this morning, then have a leg there, and the tweet said Thursday (which is tomorrow our time) Leafsfan assumed that Malaysia could possibly planned for Two legs...

My spec:
We haven't started our Leg 3 yet.. Not all of our teams might catch the 2.55 am flight today.. just like S22 when they landed in Botswana, they had an extra day to starting the leg.

I suspect the leg(s) in Sabah may be similar to those in TAR 4, in that those legs were mostly in rural areas and involved a lot of self-driving between tasks and active route marker locations. From what was reconstructed about those legs that season the teams basically weren't near any urban or suburban areas except for the airport at the end of the latter leg to head to the next destination. That vusut was mostly rural, nature preserves and forests, and small villages.
As far as finding live or near live information, we're going to have to go to those new usual suspects twitter, instantgram, facebook, liveblogs, or even the type of blogs that were around in 2004. :)

I think you two are talking about diff things? Dr Rox is talking about the tweets sent on Wed saying they will be handing out clues tomorrow, ie Thursday. IF that would be the case then that would be leg 4 not leg 3.
However, I again doubt a leg in Indo. FWIW.
-
^^ No word on a leg in Indo. The tweets were indeed from a person in Sabah who's involved in race production, and somehow, her followers/friends on twitter from PADANG, INDONESIA decided to engage in a conversation with her and somehow led to a discussion of their own local school amazing race in Indonesia. (things people can digress to :groan:)
So... no need for a meltdown #OMGNOINDOAGAIN for Indo haters. Thanks. :funny:

If they get cars immediately, self drive and don't get lost. I'd expect an hour or so later than that. Maybe they end up taking a bus or train and get there any time.

I've taken a look at the attractions in Kianson and in Kudat and Kianson seems likelier to me. The Mari Mari Cultural Village at Kianson look just like the sort of place TAR loves to go.
http://marimariculturalvillage.com/ (http://marimariculturalvillage.com/)
3. you get 5 different tribes in 1 village.
You are guided to each different tribe houses and learn about their different lifestyle, culture, and history. You get a fun and educational experience: see first hand how these tribes used the blowpipe to hunt, start a fire with bamboo and used bamboos to cook their meals.
A blowpipe roadblock? Or starting a fire with Bamboo? One of the visitors mentioned a headhunting demonstration as well. That presumably would be a detour, but a shrunken head would reduce the partner's contribution for the rest of the race. :funny:
They also have some gentle (class 1 and 2) white water rafting.
I'm seeing things they could do in Kudat, but nothing nearly as interesting as Kianson.
-

Although this would explain the almost complete absence of sightings in the last 24 hrs I don't understand why they would spend so long in Guangzhou. Having a 12 hr+ PT then racing for 3-4 hrs within the same city then having another massive break?
I'm new to this, is it common?
-
Yes, the 24-30h Pit Stop we seem to have had in Guangzhou is perfectly normal. It was the suggested 8-10h Pit Stop suggested yesterday that's very strange, hence my confusion yesterday.
-
THIS should be leg three, right? The first in Maylasia as teams just arrived from Guangzhou...
-
:cheer:
THIS should be leg three, right? The first in Maylasia as teams just arrived from Guangzhou...
That's what I'm gathering. I think there was a confusion over time differences, but we're still on leg 3

I agree,Leg 3. Had to wait to catch a certain plane. Possibly to let Phil get ahead.
I like the Cultural Village though, Head hunters hmmm.

From the pics/video from Kota Kinabalu - One def looks like Cord for sure, not sure about the others. Are there several teams getting out of the vehicle? They were probably safe and ending the leg? The hotel mentioned is just NW of where the pit stop is noted on the map. Not sure if this goes here or the other thread.
-
KOR leg..?
-
Peach, what did you mean by "teams on the way back to the airport" in the live sightings thread? Thanks
-
Peach, what did you mean by "teams on the way back to the airport" in the live sightings thread? Thanks
maybe it means that leg in malaysia is already finished.. and the remaining teams now heading to the airport for next destination.
-
It means that they are going back to the airport to leave and go somewhere else I'm guessing.

Probably, but wasn't the previous location that was mentioned rumored to be the pitstop? If that's the case.. then it could be a superleg.

Oh thank you! I thought they were going to have lunch at the airport. :ascared

Looks like we have our first TBC leg. Where's their next destination? My guess is either India or Nepal.

Peach said Qatar was mentioned but not confirmed. I'm all for the Middle East, but please.. there are way more things that can be done in the ME than dune bugging.
Edit: and camels, dates, and arab culture. Qatar for one, is very modernized.
-
If it is one of the versions of the superleg, the obvious exits from Kota are Singapore or Kuala Lampur.
If they are headed to the Persian Gulf, a not so obvious routing is from Kota to Brunei to Dubai.

Peach (I think it's you that first mentioned it), where did the idea of Qatar come from? I mean, it would be exciting as hell, but haven' seen any tweets mentioning Qatar.
-
GuyS!! This is the LIVE THREAD ONLY. Quit making me dash over here. :groan:
-
Peach (I think it's you that first mentioned it), where did the idea of Qatar come from? I mean, it would be exciting as hell, but haven' seen any tweets mentioning Qatar.
there's been mention about this country but like peach said, it's unconfirmed yet.
-
The other thing to remember is that Qatar is a major airline hub for connecting flights . as are KL, and Singapore. Let's be careful about assuming Qatar is the next leg, it may just be a connecting point.
(And our experience with flights in and out of Sabah in season 4 supports that caution.)
-
Okay guys. Let's not get all excited.
We have some very inconclusive tweets suggesting that racers were returning to airport, that has not been confirmed by on the ground crew. No idea if Qatar is true or not. Racers could very well be cozy in a hotel somewhere.
We also are working on something entirely different which may or may not have merit, we will know tomorrow.
At the moment there is nothing factual, no airport sightings.
Y'all keep an eye out, I am going to bed. :funny:
-
SANDAKAN airport has been raised as a possibility, they also have flights to KL.
-
Can we confirm they were definitely at the airport though?
-
Has it been confirmed to be a KOR leg? If so would they be possibly heading to Oceania to be somewhere there in the morning for the next leg?
-
DETOUR @Malaysia leg - making "BANGKAR" (= Bamboo Raft)
-
No airport sightings. No firm confirmation of KOR.
-
SANDAKAN airport has been raised as a possibility, they also have flights to KL.
It is about a 5 hour drive to Sandakan from Kota. Since WRP has had teams drive in Sabah before, this is quit possible. Production could space out RB, DT and RI stops along the way. There is also bus traffic between the two cities.
-
Since they started in China, I don't think there'll be a chance that they'll visit Oceania. (Unless Qatar rumor is not true, maybe there's a small chance.)
-
Since they started in China, I don't think there'll be a chance that they'll visit Oceania. (Unless Qatar rumor is not true, maybe there's a small chance.)
They could still go somewhere like the Maldive islands or the Seychelles, though I doubt they would go through Qatar to do it, if that rumor is true. That would tend to lead them back to Africa, which they seem to do every other race recently.
-
We are told that Qatar was misdirection...
-
I'm doubting any Africa this season.
So do we know anything about leg 4 location? :colors
-
Does anyone know the results of the third leg or are they still filming? By the way, I'm totally routing for Brechael and YouTube
-
Does anybody know where they were last sighted?
-
All sightings can be found in the live thread.
-
:hiya kiaraburry and Lycne, and :bigwelcome to the R.F.F.!
-
So all we know up to this point is:
- Leg 3 has ended
- Leg 4 has begun
- Teams were spotted at the Airport leaving Malaysia
- Qatar was thought to be the next location, but we were misdirected
Am I missing anything? Pleas feel free to correct me!

I feel like the next country will be India or Bangladesh. I wouldn't be surprised if they went back to Kazakhstan this season either. It's on the way to Europe so it's a good choice logistics wise.

D. T. @Gat300 13m
amazing race di lapangan terbang kota kinabalu untuk penerbangan melalui kuala lumpur
After google translating... :lol:
"amazing race at Kota Kinabalu airport for flight through kuala lumpur"
So maybe KL is just a connection for another country? (It seems unlikely to have two double country legs in row in my opinion...)
Katoh Maleu @LLiket8463 29m
saw amazing race in kota kinabalu airport they were exchanging for btn currency
BHUTAN??!!
IDK how accurate these are, though. It's the guy's first tweet (for both of them)...
BTN means Bhutanese Ngultrum, the official currency of that country = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhutanese_ngultrum
p.s.
Hopefully, they won't go to India, again for 24th season. (:;)
-
p.s.
Hopefully, they won't go to India, again for 24th season. (:;)
Hopefully no India, especially when most of the teams have already been there, I can understand Malaysia being visited but India AND China would be awful, One or the other but not both plus I feel we are already getting a asia overload.
-
Actually, most teams HAVEN'T been to India - it's been absent a fair bit recently, so the only teams to have raced there before are the threepeaters and Brenchel. (Then again, Margie/Luke and the Cowboys have now been to China three times, so.)
-
Margie and Luke needs more South America and Africa. :colors
And with regard to the Bhutan twitter person, mind as well say Iraq. :res:
-
Kazakhstan I think would be off limits as you would need to fly through Moscow.
This is an incorrect statement. The statement might have been true in the days of the Soviet Union, but I have no data source to check. Kazakhstan is an independent country, it is not part of Russia. Lots of flights to both Astana and Almaty, now, from foreign destinations. There is actually one direct flight from KL.
-
It's highly likely a double leg in India's up next. It's been 4 seasons since the last visit there.
I doubt Kazakhstan mainly because I think Africa will be visited this season and after India there'll be 5 legs already.
-
i don't mind they visit India or China this season. but if they visit both countries, and 2 legs each country is bad IMO :groan:
-
Don't ask me why but I have a crazy feeling that we are going to Australia (Melbourne or Canberra). Don't ask me why.
-
Well if they come to Canberra I got it covered.

Oh interesting, I was going on TAR13 which went India-Moscow-Almaty
Only one team in TAR13 traveled to Almaty on that routing, Terrance/Sarah. It cost them their Russian visas. If they had not been eliminated in Almaty, they could not continued to race, since they no longer had visas to enter Russia. They also were not able to do decoy work in Moscow.
-
If they do Canberra they're going to do it through another major city (probably 2 legs, that's why I doubt Canberra) because nobody flies there :lol:

Sunset in Kota Kinabalu today was 5.56 PM.

From looking at the pics, looks like teams were on two different flights .....Kota to KL
-

I know.. but why all of the teams were using AirAsia flight? They could just easily fly with different airlines directly to the main terminal building.
That's just my wild guess.

Jet/Cord, Dave/Connor and probably the afghananimals were seen in daylight at the airport in Kota. The photos of J/T and D/C appear, to me, to be in Terminal 1. The photos of Margie/Luke and their bunch look like Terminal 2.
-
Have we done double legs in a country (4 legs in total) back to back before (etc China China Malaysia Malaysia)?
Because the only way that Leg 4 is not KL Malaysia and is in fact a transmission city for teams to another COUNTRY, means that teams have to either travel South by KTM train to Singapore or North by the same train to Bangkok.
-
Can somebody who's following the respective various twitters if they hear/know about the next location that teams are moving to being/could be KTM Intercity Train Station?
-
Yes, I think we move on to the next country on Leg 4.
Reason: The producers were seen exchanging their money :funny:

Last train to Singapore departs at 10.30 pm. If they take the 8.30 am train tomorrow morning, they will only arrive at Woodlands Checkpoint at 4.30 pm.
-
There's also the possibility of a half-leg in KL with teams traveling elsewhere to another country for the second half of the leg. This has been done a very few times, TAR 3 with Hong Kong-Sydney perhaps being the best known example.

Still hoping they would come to Singapore. All ready for them :lol:

It's 1:45 AM now. It'll get interesting if some lagging behind team arrives after 3 AM and the bar is closed.
-
Have we done double legs in a country (4 legs in total) back to back before (etc China China Malaysia Malaysia)?
Jobby, I cant believe your memory is so short. Get ready to kick yourself in the behind.
TAR 23
Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi
Indonesia
Indonesia
Did you mean the first 4 legs, Jobby? Yeah, that was never happened.
Oh, I haven't really been involved in TAR 23 spoilers so I don't know they are doing 2 legs in Indonesia. T_T Okay. So now 2 legs KL is totally possible. But really, first 4 legs of the season and you want to bore the world to death?
Well, it had happened on TAR Asia 4. :P
Leg 1 (Malaysia)
Leg 2 (Malaysia)
Leg 3 (Malaysia → Sri Lanka)
Leg 4 (Sri Lanka)
-
Any chance that the skybar is towards the end of Leg 4? Flight to KL in the middle of this leg (first half in Kota).
-
Teams were seen at the gate in Kota Kinabalu's low-cost terminal between 5.54pm (sunset) and 6.34pm (upload time). This means they were on one of these three flights:
AK 5133 from Kota Kinabalu to Kuala Lumpur, 1830-2100 - ARRIVED 853PM
AK 5117 from Kota Kinabalu to Kuala Lumpur, 1835-2105 - ARRIVED 950PM
AK 4119 from Kota Kinabalu to Kuala Lumpur, 1935-2205 - ARRIVED 1005PM
There is a time gap from near towards 9pm - 12/1am when the cowboys were finally spotted at the KL city centre. For all you know Sky Bar is not the first task in the city.

That's a good idea.
-
So Youtubers is the only one haven't been spotted yet, maybe eliminated... :P
From what I read on the live sightings thread, the Afghanimals sighting was from leg 3. So I think we're still in the dark about our last two.
Sorry if my info is bad, I'm really new to this forum so I'm trying to get the hang of it.
-
Don't worry about it. You should see some of the mistakes I've made. :gaah:
You're doing well. Keep up the good work. :)
-
Some (horrible) pictures here: http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Slowhatch/library/Misc (I don't think the CIA will be calling anytime soon :hides :funny:)
The teams I recognized: Globetrotters, Twinsies, Marge/Luke, Cowboys, Connors and the Internets. The teams I didn't recognize are the green team, the aqua team (country singers?) and possibly Mark/Mallory. The flights at the counter that I noticed were BR15 and CX883.
Green looks like Jessica & John to me, aqua looks like to Caroline & Jennifer.
What about the picture dates?
-
These are from the beginning of the race, at LAX.
-
There is alot of speculation that Joey/Meghan were booted but it was also said that Leo/Jamal pictures were from Leg 3 so one of those teams are gone.

Isn't it possible that they were just talking to the camera? (I don't know how to call it, just one of those moments when teams talk about their feelings, what they're thinking)

Is it just me...or am I reading to much in to this? Interview in their room? Does anyone else think this means the Pit Stop was also in the hotel (where the bar is) and they are staying in the hotel tonight? Really wish he would give more details, but I am new at this and don't know how much to push. Esp since he just told us to watch the show...LOL
I'm not the best at this either, but I try not to be a pest. If he doesn't want to talk I leave it at that. I took PNC to be some kind of Non Disclosure Agreement that he agreed to so that he wouldn't reveal what happened. The interview part seems weird. Maybe they are waiting out an Hours of Operation for the next part. It is the middle of the night there after all. Maybe they are having a discussion with the production staff about something that happened. It seems like an unlikely place for the pit stop.

or mabye it not pit stop

The "their room" part definitely makes me think they might be staying there. But, it could just be they have a TAR room set aside where they can do those interviews. Also, I agree...sounds like he is an employee and probably has some kind of non-disclosure agreement.

im even tweeting him in MALAY and he won't answer me :'( :groan: (:;) :pity :gaah:

You're right Plaidmoon about not keep pushing. We had a bad experience on Curaçao - while following TARLA 5 -, when the poster stopped providing info because she was almost harassed to scare by a lot of people asking for details. Peach tried to solve the situation, but the damage was done. Some times is better to stop asking, specially if it looks like a dead end or the person can't give us more info or is somehow involved with local production - like it happens three seasons ago in Ibiza -.
Insist asking for a team or situation in particular can only result in that person not answer us again, or believe that we are treating as stupid for not knowing what are we talking about.

Exactly, and the reason "you have to tell us because people in other places did" isn't going to do anything. I'm sure the circumstances in the bar compared to those on the streets in China are just a little different.
-
By the way, if this person is related to the local production, delete any reference to his/her tweet ID ASAP. This could be the same situation I was talking in my previous post from Ibiza.
-
think i might be getting somewhere with him... asked him to DM me so that it's private
-

OK, he sounds like he's someone local who works at the bar, but I'll remove his Twitter handle to be safe.
-
If he works at the bar, and WRP had chosen the bar to complete a task as part of the leg, he enters in the category of local production; otherwise he wouldn't be asked to sign a confidentiality agreement.
-
I think I'm through bothering him. I get nervous when half a dozen people start bombing some poor witness with questions. He's being a very good sport about it though. I think he's enjoying the attention.
I still think a 3 AM pit stop is odd and wonder if they are off waiting for an HoO for the next portion of the leg, though that would be unusual for the middle of a leg. This whole leg seems a bit weird to me.
-
Joey and Meghan are still in.
They have only had two opportunities to change.
They have a total of three outfits each. That we have seen.
Rumor has it the third leg was a non-elimination round.
Leo and Jamal's most recent photo is questioned
:)
:hrt: :luvya: :cheer:
-
whats an HoO?
-
Definetly think Joey and Meghan are still in it...when asked to identify them and he was asking the placings... toldhim that they had been low down in previous legs.
"•°•°•Yy•°•°• @en_wawai 3m
@MelindaMathis88 @john46338613 interesting.."
-
whats an HoO?
Hours of Operation. Basically if a team has to wait untill the morning for a task to open.

-
I honestly won't be surprised if Joey & Meghan have been eliminated. Given their performance from the first two legs it's not a matter of if but when.
-
That remark about "their room" sounds like production taking over a banquet room at the hotel. A place where they can do confessionals and sequester the teams. Production has done this before. I can remember one in Guilin, China in TAR15 and at Heathrow Airport in London in TAR 15. In China, they released teams in the same time frame that they arrived, but then teams hit a HoO at that drum deal on the mountain.

Hopefully this means they haven't been eliminated but it's not looking good. I definitely don't think they can compete with the likes of Brenchel, Dave/Connor and the Cowboys (eugh!) but I'd like them to be around similarly to how they were in S22...
-
He has been sending a bunch of cryptic messages when asked about jeoy/meghan. here is his latest:
if they are at the first place than u should not worried,for sure they survive..if not? well..
maybe they were on the eraly flight with jet/cord and father/son and did good at the "test" he is talking about?

As mentioned elsewhere, there were 9 production crew at the currency exchange in Kota airport when D/C and J/C were there. That suggests at least 4 teams at the airport
-
Lynette do you have any evidence of the guy hinting that he may have seen Joey & Meghan?
-
SM the picture that I referred to as "John's Picture" was one of Joey and Meghan. So they are still in the race!

It is almost 7 a.m. in Kuala Lumpur and from what I am gathering they possibly have finished the fourth leg? If nothing else, they are in the middle of the fourth leg. Do you think they will be flying out this morning?

HOPE! Thank you. :hoot:
I think we should be careful though, he said he saw them at the entrance to the last task which means they may have been eliminated Leg 4... Hopefully not though...

nonono john was the name of the other guy tweeting him ^_^ he posted a picture of joey and meghan asking if he had seen them.

I'm still not convinced because he is part of local production and likely asked to throw off people asking questions. If we see them in the wild then take that as confirmation that they are still in but until then I'd consider Joey & Meghan to be unknown.
-
we're the cowboys spotted at the tower? maybe they used the express pass..?

A question...
Is it safe to say the fourth leg took place in KL and finished or is a out to finish this morning (Saturday) Kuala Lumpur time?

Roadblock took place at 'Skybar' in Kuala Lumpur. So yes.
-
So all of the recent seasons that headed West from the US first (with the exception of TAR18) have all been around Asia/Oceania until Leg 6. Do you reckon this means we're in for a few more of these legs before possibly heading to Africa/Europe?

NEED SOMEONE IN KL TO COVER THE AIRPORT FOR US TODAY :tantrum
-
Based on a 12 hour pitstop, what is the approximate range of time that teams will be leaving KL?
-
There is no such thing as a 12 hour PitStop any more...
-
Based on a 12 hour pitstop, what is the approximate range of time that teams will be leaving KL?
We really shouldn't assume a 12 hour length for any pitstop. It will be the length production needs to control teams' travel options and provide means for Phil and Bertram and the other exec producers (usually Elise) a sufficient lead time to get ahead of the teams for the next leg.
Edit -- Peach and I were responding to the same thing at the same time!

I don't care for any other team now but Brenchel :lol:
-
Youtube isn't out, a worker who was at the skybar said he saw them when I showed him their picture. Most likely leg 3 was NEL
-
Samual already addressed that.
-
I'm so tired of people saying they want which team to be eliminated, it's personal preference and it has NOTHING to do with the speculation or spoiler at all. Grrrrrr
-

but love this explained better :conf:
^^ That conflicts with other info you've posted -- I believe this is from a source right?
SM the picture that I referred to as "John's Picture" was one of Joey and Meghan. So they are still in the race!
As far as I can tell, everyone but Youtube has photo evidence of being enroute to KL -- click the links on the leg 3 SAFE teams, everyone is accounted for.
IF it were indeed an elimination leg, Joey & Meghan would be the only team possible to be eliminated... NEL would be 9 teams, Elimination would be 8 and that does not match both pieces of your info.
THIS:
Except like I said.. that afgnamals pic wasn't tweeted live and was from leg 3.
Is not true -- two separate sightings of the Afghanimals yesterday, both approximately at the same time here (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,29543.msg954453.html#msg954453).
So, I am leaving Joey & Meghan as the only unsafe team for now based on photo evidence, unless someone can show me how ALL the info fits together ???
If we see them in the wild RACING then take that as confirmation that they are still in but until then I'd consider Joey & Meghan to be unknown -- at risk.

He is not lying I assure you.
Most of us asked him out in public on twitter questions and he said he couldn't answer them, and one girl with a hot picture asked him to DM her and he did DM her and spilled his guts when she asked him questions.
Stop being so difficult. I assure you that Joey and Meghan will be seen in future screenshots. ~

Since he was part of local production he would likely be under strict instructions to lie about seeing teams or not. At the moment Joey & Meghan are at risk of having been eliminated but that can change, I'm doubtful that it will but it could possibly change. Further more I wouldn't ask people who are directly associated with the show as part of local production about what teams were there, Most likely they signed some sort of agreement with the show and could be fined if they leaked information out and it was discovered that they did. We do NOT want people to be fined or lose their job as a result of leaking information just to find out if Joey & Meghan were there or not.
-
Connect the dots....
There could have been a fast forward on this leg and one team didn't go to that roadblock, or jet and cord used their express pass.
The worker said the roadblock was very hard and all of the teams that did it were having trouble and some almost gave up.
Im tired of people bashing team youtube for no reason. If you dont like them that is fine, but no reason to bash them to their fans. I dont bash your favorites teams. Its time to grow up people.
-

I appreciate your hope for Youtube. I love youtube too, but faced it, it is highly unlikely they survived Leg 3.

Still, I find it really weird to have a night leg (Yes, I know Norway this season, but there is still light.) I wonder what KL can offer at night. Any possibilities KK + KL be one leg?

Yes. I think the flight to KL was mid-4th leg. Maybe one/two other locations/tasks before the skybar and then the pitstop (which is currently ongoing) at the hotel.
-

Serving alcohol :P
HEE! so I've read. :)
-
To put it simply (and extinguishing the flames):
The testimony by the employee is not reliable information because there is a conflict of interests (him probably being under contract and all).
There is no photographic evidence or external sightings of U-Tube racing in Leg 4.
Therefore: Joey & Meghan have the highest probability of having been eliminated in Leg 3, however this is not 100%.
And please can we stop bashing each other?
-
Dånooky is right. Please stop the bashing.
It would be an odd task in a Muslim country.
-
I agree, no need to bash, we will eventually know who is racing and who is eliminated. I cheer for all, maybe a little harder for cowboys and Brenchel.

I think its an odd task in a country which is conservative Muslim, and in which two states ban alcohol. :ascared
That was what I was thinking too. And alcohol would probably be one task, and since there is not much light, it's difficult to carry out tasks (unless indoors).
Maybe Mug is right, could there be a task in KK before flying to KL for the pitstop (Leg 4)?
Still, I find it really weird to have a night leg (Yes, I know Norway this season, but there is still light.) I wonder what KL can offer at night. Any possibilities KK + KL be one leg?

KL has nothing much to offer at night. Been there a few times myself... After midnight, it's just staying in hotels, and the streets are not super safe as well...
-
^^ KL, like Singapore, has much to offer at night. But then those will be very "modernized" task related to night life and the only thing that is as close to local would be the street hawker stalls. And that's really bout it, no beautiful nature, forests, temples, mosques (to be visited at night) etc..

The poster is now private and both images he/she had up...which were hash tagged Amazing Race are down. One was an image (world map view) of South Africa and Madagascar and the other was the one above. The one above was labeled "finished setting up pit stop for the next amazing race #viewfromthetop #amazingrace and was time stamped 8:30 p.m. 11/22/2013. It was new to Instagram when I saw it about an hour ago.

For whatever reasons, production decided to have pit stops in very public places. It is hard to manage crowds in that type of environment. Plus China has such dedicated stalkers too.

-
It's really reflective, you can see the phone... Could it just be a photo of a picture on a screen?
They have removed the screen displaying the location name at the pit-stop too. (I can see the camera phone as well) Therefore.. I think it might just be a hoax as well. :(
-
How about travelling by bus to Singapore after Skybar task? Is that possible, Jobby?
-
Or is there a train from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore?
-
Yes, both options possible. Let me meddle with Google Map. Hang on.
-
Or is there a train from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore?
This has been discussed before. Earliest train departs at 8.30am and arrives in Singapore at 4.30pm.
How about travelling by bus to Singapore after Skybar task? Is that possible, Jobby?
A direct bus from KL to SG will take approximately 6 hours or so? Not too sure about this, driving takes less than 4 hours.

Here is another photo in his collection.....is it Singapore too? This pnoto was taken on 11/21/2013

YES That's Singapore Chinatown if I'm not wrong. The green and yellow building is People's Park Centre or Complex or something like that
-
I just checked, the first bus was at 6.00 am. The journey takes 5-6 hours. The photo was at 9.30. It's doubtful, but still possible.
-
Well the photo label just said "Chinatown and CBD." But it didn't say what town. Thx Alice
Now his account is private again for me.
-
This morning wasn't that cloudy, was it? :lol:
-
Filter.. filter.
-
I believe that's an old photo :funny: Also that photo is definitely Singapore Chinatown, Google Maps matches quite well
-
As much as I want them to go to Singapore, NO, they are most probably still in KL right now. So no bus or train to Singapore as of now and that guy may just be a hoax.
-
I hope they leave Asia for the next leg :funny:

That photo is a few days old. I just wanted to see if he was consistently in the same city.

Which photo are you talking about? If it's the one with the green and yellow building it wasn't taken today.
Can someone find out more from that guy??
-
Both photos are from the same location.
-
Could it of been a keep on racing leg?
-
First flights start at 6:15 am and there are a bunch of them.
-
I just checked out landmark tower. The guard says its a private residential condominium. And he has no idea if anything is going to happen there. But he is sure nth is happening there now.

Well it certainly could be the start of Leg 5. They finished about 3 am KL time and it is now 5 pm in KL.....so close to a 12 hour pit stop.
-
calling all the flight experts lol...
-
What are the chances they stay in Asia?
-
50% Southern Asia
25% Middle East
25% Oceania

Batu Caves seems like pit start to me.. (Globbies picture)

its funny that jamal's brother is also stalking them.

It looks like they are standing on a TAR mat.

I'm so confused about these Malaysian leg, I don't even get when they start, end, whether there was a pitstop or if it's a KOR... :lol:

At the airport right now. On my way to check-in there was a team from the Amazing Race and I'm in the shot. Random fun!
Oh, probably leg 5 has recently started ???

Bat Caves Hours of Operation is 6 am to 9 pm.

Top pic: Carolynn
Middle pic(Left to right): Dave, Luke, Jessica, Globes. Looks like a roadblock to me. I wonder why the Globes are just standing there. Obviously they have finished and waiting for other teams to finish.
-
No... the person only spotted Globes. The rest are the crew.
-
Okay.....thanks
There are two cameras on the ground.....one for the Globes and the other one for ???? Seems like at least two teams there.
-
I was trying to make some sense of the timing of the sightings from today. Time of the tweets.
Teams seen at Batu Caves
1) ~4:47 pm
2) ~6:14 pm
Team at possible travel agency
4:10 pm
Team at KUL
7:00 pm
Flight MH 179 for Nov 23
Scheduled for 11:05 pm.......but shows a delayed takeoff at 12:20 am MYT and anticipated landing at 12:55 IST
-
Okay guys. SINGAPORE is clearly misdirection, let it go.
-
^^ Yep, JAL/Malaysian Airlines/Sri Lankan Airlines (code share) flight
-
^^ Yep, JAL/Malaysian Airlines/Sri Lankan Airlines (code share) flight
I only post the operator......never any codeshares. Keeps the confusion down.
According to the new live sighting.....teams are flying KL to Singapore to Colombo. Need to check some more flights....direct flights probably for Phil.
-
Based on sightings, teams were headed to Colombo.
There's actually one direct flight to Colombo from KL tonight, but it's delayed:
CMB Colombo MH179 23.05 - 23.59 (scheduled) --> 00.10 - 01.05 (new schedule after getting delayed)
Some of the teams might be smart and take a chance to fly to Singapore, and use this flight:
SQ468 23.05 - 00.15
-
Do we have anyone from colombo to wait for the teams?
-
Do we have anyone from colombo to wait for the teams?
Peach said we had before, over at TAR AUS 1 or TARA 4, but I couldn't find someone reporting for Sri Lankan leg in the respective live sightings thread over those two borads, unless I missed them :-[
-

CMB Colombo MH179 23.05 - 23.59 (scheduled) --> 00.10 - 01.05 (new schedule after getting delayed)
That flight has actually landed. I thing it was from yesterday and delayed past midnight, so shows up for today. At least that is the way I read the chart.
Three possible flights from Singapore to Colombo
1) CX 711 9:00pm -- 10:25pm
2) SQ 468 11:05pm -- 12:15am
3) EK 349 10:05am -- 1:40am
There are lots of flights from KUL to SIN. If that spec about the team at a travel agency is correct....might sense, since flights are split between the M terminal and the L Terminal at KUL

Hmmm?? Maybe you just google MH179 or you see flightstats website thing.
-
Yeah,I looked at flightstats.......flight aware has different times too
-
Nope it hasn't left yet.
-
Don't we have a transport thread guys?! :lol:
-
Don't we have a transport thread guys?! :lol:
So are you saying that it is not okay to discuss or spec about possible flights in the TAR24 Discussion and Spec on Spoilers?

Don't we have a transport thread guys?! :lol:
Because those flights are just possibilities, ZouLy.
-
Okay guys. SINGAPORE is clearly misdirection, let it go.
I learnt it the hard way :lol:
So teams are now on the way to Colombo?

-
Well do you think we get another night leg in Sri Lanka or a HoO?
Thx PuppetVX......you did good work running down those locations in Singapore
-
The Brenchel picture is most likely leg5, they left the bar at 3am~ and sunrise is at 7am(so they probably checked in + departed) just my thoughts :)
-
Teams are spotted in the evening today (Batu Caves) and left pit-start at around before to evening time. Globes picture surfaced at 5pm+.

Looks like John/Jessica and we have our next destination :yess:

So who is it in this picture?
It doesn't look like John/Jessica to me but more like Margie. Notice the half glasses the person is wearing.
-
Well i think im seeing a blonde hair so i would say it's John. well yeah i think its not john.
-
Looks Margie to me too.

It DEFINITELY is Margie :funny:
Hi guys
Sorry I'm just a newbie here. I met Brendon and Rachel accidentally in Batu Caves, Malaysia today (see the attachments). And guess what ?? I heard the next destination accidentally also. It is .....
SRI LANKA !!!!!!
And this would mean leg 4 is NEL.
What. How, why?

Neobi you are there at the airport?
what teams have you spotted so far?

Awesome job Neobie! :cheer: You're the best! :<3

We want more neobie!! :cheer:

I have all the teams. But processing the photos might take a little while, I have too many devices on me. And most photos are crap anyway.
Wish I could have talked to the teams, but that didn't work out!
-
awesome! wow :yess: thank you neobi!
can you list the teams you saw?

Gosh, I'm embarassed :funny: because that girl beside Margie looks like Jessica to me.. and seemingly Margie has some beards too on that picture :funny:
Sorry everyone :funny: still laughing

Be patient and give Neobie time to process all the info, ok?

I think YouTube is eliminated based on pics
-
Surely you guys are capable of figuring this out?
-
So, according to Neobie (thank you, thank you, thank you) we have on the direct flight to Colombo: Cowboys, Globetrotters, John & Jessica, Afhganimals, David & Conor and Caroline & Jennifer (?)
And two teams, Brenchel and Margie & Luke were spotted asking info for flights through Singapore.
-
Neobie said the first team he saw was Margie/luke at 7:50, and B/R he saw at 8:20...
I'm so confused :'(
-
Neobie, all the teams besides Brenchel made the first flight (not sure about this) which is scheduled to land when?
According to flightstats the direct flight will arrive at Colombo at 1.21am
-
Neobie said the first team he saw was Margie/luke at 7:50, and B/R he saw at 8:20...
I'm so confused :'(
If they got to the airport early to get one of these flights to singapore 2030-2125/2050-2150/2125-2225/2140-2235, they might be able to catch SQ468 2305-0015 which landed 20 minutes ago (its now 12:25AM local time in colombo). Direct flight still needs around one hour.
Or maybe they got to airport so late that the direct flight is full? I'm not sure.
But most likely an Hour of Operation is waiting for all teams.
-
How far behind is the 2nd flight with Brenchel & Margie/Luke?
-
So Youtube is 100% gone? :'(
-
The direct flight has now landed, so hopefully soon we will start learning more.
-
Praying brenchel can overcome these next two tasks and continue in game they did last
time losing on an NEL and making it to f3!

-
So Youtube are confirmed to be gone? Excellent!

Oh how wonderful ... nobody left to root for after four legs ... :(
-
if brenchel is gone the next leg the ratings are gonna drop faster than a meteor. You can already expect them to drop after YouTube's boot but if they are eliminated after YouTube or even in 2 legs the ratings are gonna plumit. Like who else has a big fan base?

Am I the only one who would LOVE to see Brenchel eliminated next? :funny:
I never liked them the first time round, and was sick of Rachel's constant whinning! Brendan seems OK though, but I cant take another full season of her! :groan:
I don't understand the love for them? But I don't live in America so maybe I'm missing out on the Love-Fest! :funny:

Have to agree with you there. No matter if you personally love or hate those teams, some of their fans/followers will check the Race out (again) if they promote it on Twitter/Facebook ... I seriously doubt, that many of them will continue to watch if/when they are gone. And I really think the Race needs good ratings, not to be put on the endangered species list again ...
Maybe I'm just seeing things to bleak ... who knows
-
I will watch up.until brenchel leaves don't care for remainder of teams and hate that those homoohobic cowboys (maybe just one is) are on for third time? If cowboys don't win will cbs bring them back until they do? If brenchel out next or in top 3 again will theybe brought back for a 3Rd time? It's not like TAR23 Are doing great ratings? BB15 With all there problems had great ratings but then again they had brenchel fans running the show for half the season!
-

You should consider that neither Brenchel or YouTube had much of an impact on the ratings the first time they were on the show. Or at least there wasn't much of a ratings increase those seasons - it more likely was a ratings decrease, but I don't think it was anything to do with Brenchel. The trend has been downward for several years, at least in terms of actual people watching. Also, Big Brother has an audience about 2/3 the size of TAR. If Brenchel couldn't nudge Big Brother's ratings up much, I doubt they will for TAR.

You should also consider that Joey has gained two million MORE subscribers since he's been on the race. I'm not saying every single one of them will watch it but a good amount of them will. The first time around doesn't mean much we are talking about how their fanbase has grown since then. Now they are on all-stars more people will be watching and probably only for them and once they are gone bam down goes the ratings. You can dislike the team all you want but there is no doubt there be some kind of decrease in the ratings.

Facts are facts people, the only teams with huge fanbases on this season are team youtube an brenchal. Youtube for being very succesful on youtube and having tons of followers/subscribers, and Brenchal for being on BB and amazing race before.
The other teams are regular life people who were on the show before with small fanbases built up from their past seasons. They are nothing compared to Youtube/Brenchal.
I'm sorry if you cant see that.
If Brenchal get eliminated next I dont see the show doing good at all. The boot order for this season is horrendous. NANA, Mallory and Mark, Youtube, and possibly Brenchal.
-
His 2million subscribers are not all American, where the show is shown live, and ratings are only accounted for.
His subscriber count didn't really start to rocket until TAR22 was over. I'm pretty sure thats where most of his popularity came from which means a good amount of them are american.
-
None of this is very relevant. Just youtubers, being youtubers. Them being out will not effect the ratings and it won't if and When Brenchel is eliminated.
-
I hope you guys are right and YouTube and Brenchel bring millions of viewers to TAR. It's a win-win situation for everyone and would be one of the best things that ever happened to TAR. However, I'll be skeptical until the ratings come in for the first couple of episodes.
By the way, I like Team YouTube and would have liked to see them last longer. I'm OK with Brenchel too, but the tears and drama from Rachael got to be a bit much at times.

I agree. That's the risk CBS took with bringing those teams back too. Like once those two teams get eliminated they are going to have to deal with a ratings drop. Think about though, what fanbase does JJ,Cancer,Puke,Cowboys,Country singers, and Afghans have? All 6 of those teams probably have the fanbase size of YouTube and Brenchel combined.

I agree. That's the risk CBS took with bringing those teams back too. Like once those two teams get eliminated they are going to have to deal with a ratings drop. Think about though, what fanbase does JJ,Cancer,Puke,Cowboys,Country singers, and Afghans have? All 6 of those teams probably have the fanbase size of YouTube and Brenchel combined.
Sorry, but that is FAR from the truth.
WANNA BET?! haha just kidding.

Just when I think I'm getting out, they drag me back into the discussion. :iok
TAR's ratings are largely due to the TAR fanbase. They could have 11 or 12 completely anonymous unheard of teams and still get decent ratings, That was true in most of the early seasons. It's only been the last 10 or 12 seasons when TAR would bring in a couple of teams with some name recognition. Before that, it was Rob and Amber from Survivor and maybe one or two other teams that I can't come up with at the moment. Ratings haven't generally dropped off the cliff when a well known team got eliminated. I doubt that will suddenly be the case now. At most, teams like YouTube and Brenchel might add 10 or 15% to the ratings and most likely less than that.
I'm going to withdraw now, since I've said my piece and I don't either of us are going to change our minds. Also, this should probably be in the Bitch and Moan Thread and not in the discussion of spoilers, so we're just littering up the real discussions that should be going on here. Not that there hasn't been a lot of that so far.

Plaidmoon, we are not talking about ALL of the seasons together. We are talking about season 24 ONLY.
You know deep down team youtube and brenchal have more fanbase than all of the other teams. I'm sorry but if you dont see this you are lying to yourself.

It's fair to say that all the teams have their fans, some more than others, and I for one am disappointed that we have already lost both the Twins AND Joey and Meghan. Although I'd have liked to see J&M go further at the end of the day I think we're all foremost fans of the race and we still have a good season to look forward to. Hopefully some cool locations and (now we've had three popular boots) some teams to root against... :yess:

What are the chances of Africa after Sri Lanka? South Africa perhaps? #SouthAfricaIsLongOverdue
Looking at the most recent seasons that headed West first (17 onwards), all but one left Asia/Oceania and headed towards Africa/Europe on Leg 6 so I think a leg there next is likely. I'm also hoping for South Africa (or Marrakesh), I just hope they show that there's more to Africa than safari...

Despite touring the world for decades, nobody ever gives the Globetrotters credit for having a fan base.

I love the Globe Trotters. I was so sad when they were eliminated in their season. :(

-
Have they ever had two NEL in a row? I mean they know this season is :gaah:
TAR 3 Final 5. I think. But none before at Final 8.
-
I think Batu Caves is a Route Info on Leg 5 at the start.. It's not a pit-start because there's no mat below Brenchel in the pic with them at Batu Caves. So don't think teams visited it in Leg 4 as a pit-stop. :)
-
I'm shocked nobody has done it yet but with the help of wiki.. :funny:
Leg 3 of TARA 4 flew from KL to Colombo too. Shocker and surprise surprise.
Leg 3 (Malaysia → Sri Lanka)
Kota Kinabalu (Kota Kinabalu International Airport) to Sepang, Selangor (Kuala Lumpur International Airport)
Flight: Sepang (Kuala Lumpur International Airport) to Colombo, Sri Lanka Sri Lanka (Bandaranaike International Airport)
Colombo (Gangaramaya Temple)
At Gangaramaya Temple, teams had to receive a blessing from the Buddhist monk to receive their next clue.
>Detour (Count It or Carry It)< Colombo (Pettah)
The Detour was a choice between Carry It or Count It. In Carry It, teams had to carry 12 blocks of ice to a market vendor across the fish market. In Count It, teams had to count fish and give the correct amount of 1100 fish to receive their next clue.
(not likely, an almost similar task in TAR 21)
Colombo (Nugegoda Station Road - Peanut Vendor)
At the Peanut Vendor, each team member had to sell 20 bags of peanuts for Rs.15 a piece. They should give the earnings back to the vendor to receive their next clue.
>Roadblock (Who can reap what they sew?)< Colombo (Trendy Connection)
In this Roadblock, one team member to sew a shirt to receive their next clue.
Pitstop: Colombo (Independence Square)
;)
-
There is also a double leg in Sri Lanka in TARA 4 but as of now I think we can stick with this because teams will need to travel by train to another location on the second leg.
-
Here's the TAR Australia leg in SL, somewhat including some tasks from 2nd SL leg in TARA 4, so I thought I'll post this.
Leg 11 (Israel → Sri Lanka)
Colombo (Gangaramaya Temple)
Same task
>Detour (Count or Carry)< Colombo (St. John's Fish Market)
Same task
Railway: Colombo (Fort Railway Station) to Galle (Galle Railway Station)
Galle (Galle Fort)
At Fort Galle, teams had to go to the beach where they found a chest with a combination lock and a clue asking for Sri Lanka's year of gaining independence: 1948. This opened a second chest that asked the year of birth of Sri Lanka's first Prime Minister Don Stephen Senanayake: 1884. The second chest contained their next clue.
Bus: Galle (Galle Bus Station) to Ambalangoda (Ambalangoda Train Station)
Ambalangoda (Mask Stall Vendor)
At the mask store in Ambalangoda, teams were shown a photograph of a particular mask. They then had to search the a nearby street festival for a person wearing the matching mask in order to receive their next clue.
>Roadblock ("Who can reap what they sew?")< Colombo (Trendy Connection)
Same task
Colombo (Independence Square) >Pit Stop (Leg 10)<
-
if brenchel is gone the next leg the ratings are gonna drop faster than a meteor. You can already expect them to drop after YouTube's boot but if they are eliminated after YouTube or even in 2 legs the ratings are gonna plumit. Like who else has a big fan base?
Am I the only one who would LOVE to see Brenchel eliminated next? :funny:
I never liked them the first time round, and was sick of Rachel's constant whinning! Brendan seems OK though, but I cant take another full season of her! :groan:
I don't understand the love for them? But I don't live in America so maybe I'm missing out on the Love-Fest! :funny:
I too have not seen Brendan & Rachel in Big Brother; therefore, I really do not understand the love for them. :funny: Tbh, I was hoping that they'd be out in their season and at the same time I'm hoping that they'd win a leg before getting eliminated. :funny: So I think I would consider myself neutral for Brenchel. :umn:
-
They got rid of pit start mats though.
-
Maybe.. but Batu Caves is spotted on Leg 5 and not 4 for now. For all we know it's the pit-stop and start.. but until then we don't know if BC was visited on Leg 4.
-
I have tried to stay out of this debate, but since it is still going on...lol
I love Brenchel (and I am from America...someone earlier said they were from America so maybe that is why they don't get it). Rachel on TV (in front of cameras) can definitely put on a show. She loves to bring over the top drama and generally cracks me up! She is well aware of what producers are often looking for and does her best to deliver it. She is sometimes what is good and sometimes what is bad about reality tv. But...I :luvya: her and Brenchel! :)
I actually like most of the teams on TAR24 though. Loved the Cowboys their first season, but not so the second, so I am not looking forward to them. I am not a fan of the country singers, J/J (don't even understand why they are back unless this is an UB2) or the Afghanimals though. I have actually quit watching TAR23 because of the Afghanimals and Tim & Marie.
-
Jobby, TAR Israel 2 and TAR Ukraine 2 also visited Sri Lanka. Both produced by a same production company as TAR Asia and TAR AU.
Sri Lanka legs in HaMerotz LaMillion 2 (Israel):
Leg 10 (Thailand → Sri Lanka)
Colombo (Susu Darame Temple)
At Susu Darame Temple teams had to find a needle in a haystack. They had to use the needle to sew holy Buddhist emblems on white robes. Then they had to wear the robes, take a taxi to a monastery, and receive a blessing from a monk to receive the next clue.
Colombo (Sri Lanka Masks Festival)
Same as Ambalangoda, but includes a live cobra in basket
Colombo (Groceries Corner) (Overnight Rest)
Colombo (Kollupitiya Market or Laundry depot) >Detour (Spices Porters or Laundrymen)<
For the Detour, teams had to choose between Spice Porters and Laundrymen. In Spice Porters, teams had to arrive to a market and pack 25 kilograms (55 lb) of chili peppers in sacks and carry them along the market until arriving the mashing stand. Then they had to mash all the peppers to receive the next clue. In Laundrymen, teams had to traditionally wash 50 dirty sheets. Three of the sheets contained words. Only after teams will discovered the words did they receive the next clue. Each Detour choice had only three workstations, first come, first served.
Colombo (Sunil Cowshed)
At Sunil Cowshed teams had to put cow manure into baskets, put the baskets on their heads, and take the baskets to a drying area. Then they had to mix the dung with water and sawdust to make cow-pies. Then they had to stick 100 of the cow-pies to a wall to receive their next clue. (Similar to TAR18's Feed the Fire Detour in India 2).
Bus: Colombo to Viharamahadevi Park
In an unaired task at Viharamahadevi Park, one team member had to correctly draw and paint the flag of Sri Lanka following only verbal clues from their partner.
Colombo (General Post Office) >Roadblock ("Who reads between the rows?")<
For this Leg's Roadblock, one team member had to search for a letter for the team among 7,000 letters. After finding it, the team received the next clue and a special item that was sent from home. (This is not unlikely just like it did on the Leg 4 Roadblock in TAR:All-Stars).
Colombo (Independence Memorial Hall) >Pit Stop (Leg 10)<
Leg 11 (Sri Lanka)
Colombo (Coconut Plantation) >Detour (Male or Female)<
For the Detour, teams chose between Male and Female. In both tasks team members could only use their right hand. In Male, teams had to load a buffalo-drawn cart with coconuts and guide it along a marked path. One team member led the buffalo while the other made sure no coconuts fell out of the cart. When they delivered all of the coconuts they received the next clue. In Female, teams had to milk a female buffalo. They had to completely fill a bucket with milk to receive their next clue.
Colombo (Gangaramaya Temple)
Different task, unlike TARA4 and TARAu1. At Gangaramaya Temple, one team member had to walk over hot coals with their bare feet and then perform a traditional dance for some judges. After that, the other team member had to lie on a bed of nails for three minutes.
Colombo (Galle Face Green) >Pit Stop (Leg 11)<
Sri Lanka legs in Velyki Perehony 1 (Ukraine):
Leg 2 (United Arab Emirates → Sri Lanka)
Colombo (Gangaramaya Temple)
Different task; At the Gangaramaya Temple, teams needed to find a needle in haystack. After finding it, teams needed to use it to sew an emblem onto traditional Buddhist clothes.
>Detour (Hostro or Brudno)< Colombo (Kollupitiya Market or Laundry depot)
In this leg's Detour, teams had to choose between Гостро (Hostro – Hot) and Брудно (Brudno – Dirty). Same task above as Israel.
Colombo (Donegal House)
Same task above as Israel.
>Roadblock (Who’s the most attentive?)< Colombo (Sri Lanka Masks Festival)
Same task above.
Colombo (Sima Malaka Meditation Centre) >Pit Stop (Leg 2)<
Leg 3 (Sri Lanka)
Colombo (Mahazime Chicken shop)
At the Mahazime Chicken Shop, teams had to pick up two chickens in cages and carry them for the rest of the leg.
Railway: Colombo (Fort Railway Station) to Kalutara (Kalutara South Railway Station)
>Roadblock ("Any of you have commercial talent?")< Kalutara (Main Street)
In this leg's Roadblock, one team member had to prepare and sell 20 coconuts. They had to make at least 500 Sri Lankan rupees in order to receive their next clue.
>Detour (Voda or Korzhiky)< Bandaragama, Kalutara (Wevita Lake)
In this leg's Detour, teams had to choose between Вода (Voda – Water) or Коржіки (Korzhiky – Cakes). In Voda, teams had to wash the traditional markings off an elephant. There were only five elephants available, first come, first served. Only the Cakes task is same as above.
Panadura (Gangula Devalaya)
At Gangula Devalaya, one team member had to perform one of two tasks. They would either run across a bed of hot coals in their bare feet, or lie on a bed of nails for three minutes. After they completed one task, they would then find out that the other team member would have to perform the remaining task. This task was incorrectly presented as a Roadblock.
Colombo (Mount Lavinia Hotel) >Pit Stop (Leg 3)<
The additional task in Galle in TAR Au 1 is a recycled task of the second Sri Lanka leg in TAR Asia which was actually a Roadblock, the combinations are different: ("What year when Ceylon became a republic and changed its name to Sri Lanka?"), and the answer of the combination is: 1972.
I assume Independence Square might be used as a Pit Stop.
-
Let's just say with the similarity of everything.. we MIGHT just see a few repeated tasks this leg. If there are ferns out there in Sri Lanka, check out these places!
-
Have they ever had two NEL in a row? I mean they know this season is :gaah:
In TARAS, Leg 10 in Hong Kong was a NEL where Eric & Danielle came in last. Then the following leg in Macau was also a NEL where Oswald & Danny came in last.
-
if brenchel is gone the next leg the ratings are gonna drop faster than a meteor. You can already expect them to drop after YouTube's boot but if they are eliminated after YouTube or even in 2 legs the ratings are gonna plumit. Like who else has a big fan base?
Have to agree with you there. No matter if you personally love or hate those teams, some of their fans/followers will check the Race out (again) if they promote it on Twitter/Facebook ... I seriously doubt, that many of them will continue to watch if/when they are gone. And I really think the Race needs good ratings, not to be put on the endangered species list again ...
Maybe I'm just seeing things to bleak ... who knows
What, when was it?
-
TAR4 but it got an Emmy and then CBS suddenly adored it.
-
Honestly I think that part of the reason TAR is going a little bit down hill in the ratings is in part because the challenges in recent seasons are a little bit underwhelming, (which is in due to budget)
I would rather see one really awesomely produced season a year, with a higher budget and more effort put into in then 2 seasons that are about at the quality that it is now.
Back on topic: :yess: :cheer: for Sri Lanka making a return.
-
Have they ever had two NEL in a row? I mean they know this season is :gaah:
TAR 5 Final 5 also had two NEL in a row, if i am not mistaken. That leads the twins to go home :(

Yup, Colombo Rowing Club is just so lame, but that's where the pic stands and map info as of now. Maybe they will say Beira Lake but in their clue it will be explained in detail that they have to go to CRC. ???

Please correct me if I am wrong...but right now it is basically noon Central time zone, so it is about 11:30 p.m. in Sri Lanka, Sunday, 24 Nov? This would mean most teams have probably checked in at the pit stop (if not most at least some)?
I will be glad when TAR23 airs tonight because the Amazing Race hashtag is going crazy today and it isn't for TAR24. LOL

Great pics Neobie! Thanks :)

What are the chances of Africa after Sri Lanka? South Africa perhaps? #SouthAfricaIsLongOverdue
Agreed and concurred. I must say Africa is next after spending 5 legs in Asia. Two legs for South Africa please (like post-AS legs in Africa: Burkina Faso, Ghana, Malawi, Tanzania and Botswana).
-
Is there any possibility of like a redemption task where we can have one team back?
I want more NaNa and Youtube! Gone to soon.
-
Can we stop celebrating any team's elimination status? That only will incite more flaming.
-
Can we also stop asking for Redemption Task? It ain't happening. :stare
-
So, what's next after sri lanka?
Let's go to Durban, South Africa :luvya:
-
Unless they are doing two legs in Sri Lanka (which I doubt), surely they have left or are in the process of leaving now (depending on when they arrived at the pit stop yesterday).
I don't think a ferry is an option, so I would guess we are looking for flights?
-
I hope we get to Australia or New Zealand I love the scenery in those countries, if not then somewhere new in Europe. I am not picky. :funny:

I agree with ZouLy. The chance could be 5 legs in Asia.
Route:
USA -> China -> China -> Malaysia -> Malaysia -> Sri Lanka -> South Africa?
Enough of Asia already. TAR14 has the most Asian legs ever: 7, include a double leg in Leg 10.
Summary of Asian legs in TAR:
TAR1 - Second half of Leg 7 to first half of Leg 12 (India -> Thailand -> China)

I really don't see Russia as Asia.. I know what you mean, but truly Asian legs = 5 in TAR 14. This season may top it. :groan:
I see them going to Africa next, then perhaps South America, completely bypassing Europe. #hunch
-
In Russia.......east of the Ural Mountains is Asia and west of the Urals is part of Europe. The Ural Mountains are a plate boundary between European Plate and Asian Plate
-
Yes, Nepal is just a dream, prob very unlikely. But I don't really think of it as "Asian" either.

Where do we expect to have more news about the Race?

If I am understanding correctly she lives in Cape Town. I sent a message, but we will see if she responds back.

Follow up...there are a bunch of tweets right now about Amazing Race coming from Johannesburg. I am not saying the racers aren't in South Africa, but apparently the show is airing there right now (at least according to the few people who are answering me back).
:tantrum
-
Could this be misdirection like Qatar?
I'm really hoping for some European legs, they should revisit some of the countries visited in the past. :( I would cry if they came to Lithuania, like I'm totally running away from school! :funny:
-
I love all the spoilers and pictures, but I also love the craftiness of the race where we do not know what is going on. Spoilers never ruins my love of watching the race when it airs. The racers, we know they will pop up again. If I ever cheer an elimination it is in private, I usually cheer a nonelimination. I do tend to like teams with better attitudes, and dislike when teams make agreements with others.

Hey, I just saw this post
So I'm safely home after my flight, and here are the photos from last night (23 Nov 2013). Images shrunk for file size reasons, but if you have any reason to want a bigger version of any let me know (...)

YES IT DOES
Damn, why? So they were like 10th?!

It was their time after barely surviving the first two legs. They went out 9th.
That's a shame. I'm always surprised that teams that are young and fit tend to go out so fast. I can't wait to see the episodes to see what happened. And I need to pick a new favourite team :D.
When is it going to be on tv, january?
Thanks for the information ;).

I don't know if this belongs here or in the timeline area, but it is SPECULATION!
The difference in time is really messing me up (by the way, don't tweet that or some World Clock page will start following you on twitter), but...
Yesterday I saw this
atut #ASHMEGO @rabbyAG 24 Nov
Waaah got amazing race people at airport :o
{{Details show 9:30 p.m. - which should be 11:30 a.m. in Singapore on 11/25}}
It now shows Nov 24, but yesterday it showed a few hours when I first tweeted her (would have been late on the 24th in the US). This should be 11/24 for me, but 11/25 for the racers, if I understand right.
Because today I got this...
atut #ASHMEGO @rabbyAG 7h
@MelindaMathis88 sorry for the late reply! Singapore's Changi Airport and I wasn't there I just saw people tweeting
This morning, I asked her if she knew how many teams and to confirm which day. She tweeted the following back right before she went to bed.
atut #ASHMEGO @rabbyAG 2h
@MelindaMathis88 not sure, it was yesterday, 25th. sorry not much of a help!
I have tweeted back fro her to confirm it was in the a.m. or the p.m., but she tweeted not long after the one above that she was going to bed, so I may not hear back for a bit.
In Sri Lanka there are 11.5 hours ahead of us, in Singapore they should be 14 hours ahead of us? Right now I have 12:35 p.m. on 11/26 and it is 2:34 a.m. on 11/27 there. Her tweet several hours ago would have been right before midnight...so she was still on 11/26, but barely.
At first I discounted this info, but the more I think on it...
- I first thought maybe this was people spotting Margie/Luke and Brenchel, but it would conflict with what we know about them mostly likely getting in to Sri Lanka early on the 24th.
- Then I remembered there was an Amazing Race comp of some type in Singapore over the weekend...but I think this tweet and at least one other I see on twitter may actually have been a sighting. If there were Amazing Race teams at the airport on Monday around 11:30 a.m., Singapore time the local race was over.
So...am I grasping at straws? Am I making sense? Did they possibly catch flights out of Singapore's Changi Airport yesterday on 11/25. If nothing else it tells us they didn't have two legs in Colombo.
-
#justpointing Singapore and Dubai may be the two major hubs to get into a FAR place out of Sri Lanka. Could be leaving in Leg 06.
Ps: I would have loved to see NaNa in Sri Lanka...

Doubtful...
My best time tool is the meeting planner. You can put in your location, the race location, even a 3rd or 4th location. Really helps!
Look under time zones, then Meeting Planner.

Thanks, Peach...I will put the info in there and see what I come up with.
BTW, I do agree and think they were just catching a connecting flight. I hope after Sri Lanka we are done with Asia (not that there aren't place I would have loved for them to go, but unless the whole race is Asia, I think it is time to move on).
-
Lack of sightings could mean Africa

Are those pics in order of arrival?
-
</3 brenchel
-
If those pics are in order, I am scared! :)
Five teams of eight accounted for, in what I am sure will be an elimination leg. Still out Margie/Luke, Brenchel and Globetrotters missing? Oh, please let Brenchel have beat them and we see the elimination of one of the three-peating teams!
-
Excuse me Peach, please put up the pictures of Luigi, Brenchal, and Globtrotters please. Why did you leave them out?
-
Sorry guys! That is all I have... :'(

What IS that? A fishing try at a link? There never was a Rachel-Brendon link in that folder. I moved one link due to an error in spelling, that is it.
Like I said, that is ALL I have. Take it or leave it...

Peach,
Thank you soooo much for the pictures. It is wonderful to see some of the racers after 2 days of unknown. I really appreciate your efforts to keep the site friendly.
-
:welcome: to RFF whatever! And no worries, this site takes some time to learn!! We are glad you are here.
The show premiere has not been released yet...could be late Jan onwards.
Thanks :D.
Yup, I'm not used to that site and it's really confusing for me :D. But I still want to know all the spoilers so I'm going to try my best to stop being an annoying user :D.
I'm really amazed at how You get all that information, it's mind-blowing :o. You people are some crazy-good detectives :D.
-
The pictures seem to have the same relative lighting so are maybe all from the same time of day?
I am wondering if they all came in about the same time again. Dave and Connor seem to be looking for or at someone. The guy with white shorts is in all the pictures (but the one with J/J and it is just a closer picture) so he is no help.
Cord is sitting on the ground when the Country girls checked in. Just makes us believe more and more those two teams have an alliance.
What is interesting to me is the camera crews up around Leo & Jamal. No one else has any, yet they have two? I guess this means they are going to be crammed down our throats again?
-
Thank you Peach for the pictures! :conf: Looks like Caro & Jen are doing well so far.

And does anyone know or can guess the current ranking of teams as of now?

At the minute it seems to be -
1st - Dave & Connor
2nd - Cowboys
3rd - Country Singers
4th - John & Jessica
5th - Affghanimals
I'm thinking Globetrotters will be 6th as they were on the same flight as the first 5 teams.
Margie & Luke and Brenchel are unknown.
Hope this helps :D

Mhmm well all Im saying is if brenchal are gone I have no one else to root for and all my hope in winning the season would go to globtrotters. The rest of the cast are ridiculous and unbearable. The boot order so far has been horrible and I cannot believe they haven't canceled this season yet. It is horrendous and the worst season of amazing race I have ever heard of.

Thank you peach for the picture. Thanks to the person who take the picture also! :hearts:
Basically, I kinda like the order in this leg. JJ still in, Leo and Jamal also. But, where is my Brenchel? :groan:
I hope Margie & Luke get eliminated. Don't really root for them personally since TAR 14. It also would make them being the 4th team to go, same like when they were in UB (just some random coincidence) :yess:
-

I'm thinking Globetrotters will be 6th as they were on the same flight as the first 5 teams.
Margie & Luke and Brenchel are unknown.
Hope this helps :D
Margie & Luke and Brenchel are definitely the last 2 in this case. Unless globetrotters get something unlucky like... losing travel documents. :lol:
And if the reason why Brenchel and Margie & Luke fell behind is a flight delay / "bad flight," that would mean that they'd be the next 2 boots. (7th & 8th place)
-
Is there any case that Brenchel and Maggie & Luke come in first and second (before Dave & Connor)? We have no idea that Dave & Connor is the first team to arrive or not, right?
-
:oh Didn't expect CaroJen to be in 3rd place, I think they've been doing well this season compared to their original season. :hoot: So... good for them. :)
Cowboys still there... as expected. :res: They better be u-turned like how they were in the Swiss leg in TAR18. :funny:
I wonder if Team JJ has already won a leg or not yet. ??? I hope they do. :hoot: Seeing them survive through 5 legs shows that they haven't made an extremely terrible mistake.
I wonder what happened to strong teams like Globetrotters, Margie & Luke, Brenchel. ???
-

They don't. One cameraman/soundman pair is with them. The other cameraman/soundman is always with Phil. I recognize his soundman. Normal for a pit stop. They are just doing some close up shots.

so i want fly time & big easy elimination............
margie & luke : whatever
Brenchel: pray for them :'( :'(
-
Given the possibility of teams travelling to Rome - I see one flight direct from Colombo to Rome...
FCO Rome UL 581 Sri Lankan Airlines Dep: 01:20
There are countless other possibilities with connecting flights via Dubai, Delhi etc...
-
We also could have easily missed a whole leg somewhere else.
-
Rome!!! La Fontana de trevi.
I believe that the Amazing race has never been in Rome it self, so maybe the Colosseum?
-
We are missing two days Nov 25 and 26. So I think we missed leg 6 (I am thinking Middle East)
So if they are in Rome, you think it would be Leg 7?
I'm totally lost on which leg they could be on, I was thinking the latest Pit Stop photos from Colombo were Leg 5? :funny:
-

Colombo was Leg 5.
-
I doubt they will have a double leg in Sri Lanka. So they should be heading off to Africa/Europe? And there are a lot of countries they could go to on the way to Rome as well!
-
Rome is leg 7?
so we might be missing two eliminated teams from leg 5 & 6, and we don't know who they are :ascared
So far no NEL confirmed?
-
I speculate we are missing legs too! I don't think they needed 2/3 days to complete the tasks in Colombo and flying to Rome. Potential leg 6 somewhere near Rome and driving around? #speculation

So those photo's from Colombo were taken a few days ago then?
Right, so we are missing at least 1 leg?
Ahhhhhh it's soooo confusing! :groan: :funny:
So far no NEL confirmed?
As far as we know, either Leg 3 or 4 was a NEL, but we don't know which..
-
If we missed one, lets see, they had double UAE last time and it's not a big enough country to revisit often.Oman or Qatar in the Middle East? In NE Africa, Kenya's probably temporarily off list except for transfer purposes, but Ethiopia's still generally safe enough for insurance purposes and they haven't been in a while. Maybe one of the 'Stan countries? We don't seem to get much chatter from there and former Soviet countries in winter seems like it appropriately takes it up a level for an all star season. Or possibly a Balkan like Bulgaria or a former Yugoslav?
-
There is a camera on the Spanish Steps. Here is yesterday's (11/26) time lapse http://www.skylinewebcams.com/skyline/lapse.php?w=205&lang=en
Here is the main cam page: http://www.skylinewebcams.com/en/webcam/italia/lazio/roma/piazza-di-spagna.html
Perhaps today's time lapse will have more information.
-
The web cam for the Piazza Navona Rome shows some stuff off to the right.
-
Oops to the left, never did know right from left.
-
Info seems to suggest Phil is just shooting standups now...
-
So the teams probably arrive tomorrow then
-
Unknown. But certainly possible! One direct flight every other day...arr tomorrow.
-
Anyone from rome?
-
Rome, Italy! :hearts: Vatican City maybe!!!! :please: The Vatican City was going to be on the very first season with a fastforward but no team ever took it. Rome was last visted Season 9 en route to Athens.
-

Yes i also really hope that we see Vatican City!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Cant wait to see which teams make it to Rome!!!
-
IIRC, It's been a while since teams were in Rome; season one (with a unclaimed Fast Forward in Vatican City) and a couple of active route marker tasks in Rome at the Spanish Steps (the infamous DaVinci Code task in leg 6 of season 9). The metro area around Rome has never been the location of a pit stop.
So Rome has never had a full leg of its own, and has never been a pit stop, so perhaps season 24 remedies both of those deficits.
I'm starting to think we need an index by country of which legs TAR has been to that country because it might help sort out possible destinations during filming.

I agree with you, Rome deserves a full leg there!!!!
-
Well UL 581 should have taken off about 2 hours ago, but I have no confirmation of that event. It is a 10 h and 20 minute flight to Rome.
Schedules arrival in Rome is ~ 7am Rome time UTC+1
Scheduled arrival in US time is ~1am eastern time and ~midnight central time
-
We are missing two days Nov 25 and 26. So I think we missed leg 6 (I am thinking Middle East)
I agree! I think that Leg 6 is somewhere between Sri Lanka and Rome.
Which would mean Rome is Leg 7. Hopefully Leg 8 is also in Italy, since it is such a beautiful country with great culture.
I really hope that a team gets eliminated in Rome, as teams haven't been eliminated in Italy since season 9.
So maybe Leg 6 is a No-Break Leg, and then into Italy? Or is Colombo --> Rome confirmed?

I have a list along these lines at home. I'll update it with the recent international seasons and blog it in the next couple of days. :)
And, yes, Rome has only had those two visits - none of the international races have even visited the country yet .
-
In the pictures of Caroline and Jennifer checking into the mat in Colombo, the cowboys are sitting behind Phil on that wall. Does that mean they may have received a penalty?
-
Leg 3 or 4 is a NEL, and I think that either leg 6 or 7 is a NEL. It all depends on how many teams are spotted in Rome tomorrow.
How many airports does Rome have? I know there's Rome-Leonardo da Vinci and Rome-Fiumcino (sorry about the spelling) Teams may be arriving in Rome from different airports.
-
They may not be leaving Rome by plane. If they're spending a decent amount of time there, I can't imagine them passing up the chance to visit Pompeii.
-
Maybe a double leg, one in Rome, one in Naples.
-

Actually that is just one airport. It is in the Fiumicino suburb an it is named after Da Vinci. But yes, you are right, Rome has two airports, while Da Vinci is the main international one, the one in Ciampino suburb, while mainly a military base, it handles some civilian flights, mainly from Low Cost Carriers.
99% of chances are TAR is arriving and/or departing from Rome-Fiumicino-DaVinci.

I think that this season is following the route of season 19 (Asia (many legs) -Africa - Europe - Latin/South America - Finish line) and it will be possible than before the last leg, teams travel to mexico, bolivia or colombia :cheer:
and also i really think that rome is their next destination and it would have two legs in there :yess:
Pd:Sorry if i didn't write very well but I'm not an english speaker just another mexican fan of the reality. :hoot:

Anyway...since they're in Italy already and last we knew they were in Sri Lanka... could we have a country in between? Or did they really just made that huge leap?

-
Anyway...since they're in Italy already and last we knew they were in Sri Lanka... could we have a country in between? Or did they really just made that huge leap?
For me it is a 50/50 split chance. There is more than enough space for another country between Sri Lanka and Italy at the same time there are marvelous places inside Sri Lanka (my sister just came back from Colombo) like Sigiriya where the true and original The Lion King story took place.
If they did 2 legs in Sri Lanka, then I'm surprised they were not spotted again inside the island or at the Colombo airport. If they did another country I may suppose it is a less traveled place just like what happened with Botswana when they also disappeared for a few days.
Also, if there was another country, I'd say that it is not a hub, because of how easily they can be spotted. This leaves India, Ethiopia, UAE and others out for me.
-

There is something possibly race related going on at the Piazza de Spagna webcam in Rome.
I see someone go up the steps followed by a camera. Later I see someone at the bottom of the steps holding a white sign, but down low. I have seen what looked to be a camera and a sound guy at one time. I also keep seeing a guy in a camoflauge coat. http://www.skylinewebcams.com/de/webcam/italia/lazio/roma/piazza-di-spagna.html
-
If you see anything, take screencaps!!!
-
I'm also seeing a couple of cameramen, a soundman and someone who could either be a cameraman and a soundman. I also see the guy with a white board (possibly to reflect light onto the people being filmed?). I'll see if I can get a screencap into the sightings thread.
Unfortunately, I have a really slow internet connection and the scene isn't updating. Maybe I can reload it.
-
Sorry I do not know how to do a screen cap. It is good someone else is on the job too.

defo saw a m/f team

defo saw a m/f team
Maybe Brenchel?
If you look on the live cam, there is a taxi parked in the middle of the square, it belongs to one of the teams, they should be returning shortly
-
I saw several teams could not identify.The taxi belongs to Dave Connor I believe.
-
The taxi has declined many fares including one from another team.
-
I saw Jet and Cord run all the way down to the far end of the plaza.......in front of the white building, is that the cluebox or just an orange traffic cone?
-
Flightime has been up and down those steps. How does he keep going?
-
I hope it isn't FRANZ again........:)
Certainly looks as if none of these teams are giving the Globes the answers this time around.
-
So far we have seen: Dave/Connor, Cowboys, CaroJen, Globies, Afghans at the spanish steps RB, and
Not sure: one M/F team spec'd to be John/Jessica
That means we still haven't seen Margie/Luke and Brenchel. One of them might be eliminated in Sri Lanka AND if there's a leg between Sri Lanka and Italy, they might have been eliminated on that leg. However if there's NO leg between Sri Lanka and Italy, one of them might still survive. They could be ahead of Dave/Connor or terribly fall behind any other teams
???
please correct me if i said anything wrong :P
-
Glad to see the Live Sightings Thread active again. :hearts:
From that thread (and a lil' from this), only JJ, Margie & Luke, and Brenchel are unconfirmed. To me, I think Brenchel got booted out in 8th place, just a spec though. I could be wrong.
-
I think all but Brenchel were seen.
-
Lutpay on Sucks remembered this red jacket from TAR 22:
-
I think all but Brenchel were seen.
-
The leg before Rome was NEL. Caroline and Jennifer came in last and have a speed bump now.
-

Mmhmm and how do you know that?
-
The leg before Rome was NEL. Caroline and Jennifer came in last and have a speed bump now.
Mmhmm and how do you know that?
Proof? They are actually ahead in Rome according to live sightings.
-
I am posting it in the live sightings in just a minute. Maybe they got ahead because all teams shared the same flight
-
What if we have a Fast Forward? o.O
-
I thought I saw another team in all black when JJ arrived too, running like headless chickens, but it could've been camera crew. This means only 1 team has been eliminated since Sri Lanka, we would think.
-
By the looks of the picture on the Pont Sant'Angelo, Caroline and Jennifer had already completed their Speed Bump? Or do they usually place the clue right before they make their way to the Route Marker?
-
Well it could mean Leg 5 and 6 in Sri Lanka.......5 an elimination and 6 a NEL........or Leg 6 could be somewhere else, but no mistake that previous leg was a NEL and C/J came in last.
-
So just to clarify, the boot order up until now is -
Leg 1 - 11th - NaNa
Leg 2 - 10th - Mark & Mallory
Leg 3 - 9th - Youtube (or NEL)
Leg 4 - NEL (or Youtube)
Leg 5 - 8th - Brenchel or Margie & Luke
Leg 6 - NEL (Caroline & Jen NEL)
Leg 7 - Rome - Unknown
So what I gather from this, is although Margie & Luke and Brenchel were the last 2 teams on what is to believed Leg 5 (Colombo), which ever one of the 2 wasn't eliminated got ahead of the Country Singers on Leg 6 for them to be NEL.
BUT what if there were 2 Elimination Legs in a row, Leg 5 and 6, Leg 6 being Colombo, which saw both Margie & Luke, and Brenchel eliminated, and then CaroJen came last on Leg 7, and Rome is actually Leg 8?
This is only based on the facts that there's been no sighting of either Margie & Luke or Brenchel for quite a while, and we did lose all the teams for a 2 days, a couple of days back.
Or maybe I'm toootally wrong! *-:) :funny:

I know it sounds crazy, but I like the 2nd one.
-
Or maybe production put up a speed bump sign with C and J on it to throw us off. :colors
That's what I would do if I was filming the race in such a public place. Maybe even throw in a few decoy teams.
-
But is that even possible? Can there be a ff after a NEL? What if the last team did the ff. Would they skip the speed bump?
-
I doubt a last place team that has a speed bump can even do the fastforward since they HAVE to do the speedbump.
This means that either brenchel or luigi got eliminated in the shri lanka leg and then there was another leg maybe in shri lanka where the Carolina's came in last but it was a NEL. Then we see them in the rome leg and we don't see brenchel or luigi. This means that there may be a Fastforward and maybe since they were all on the same flight brenchel got to it quicker and started it while the other teams said forget about it because they might finish it before us and we lose time.
Also keep in mind either brenchel or luigi may be lost and behind everyone else in the rome leg. Who knows.
Or another possibility is that both luigi and brenchel were eliminated in a new "double elimination" twist in shri lanka.

Just checked there and the only time the FF was on a Leg after a NEL was Season 22 Leg 7, so we could see a FF in Rome but I'm sooooo hoping there isn't one, because I really want to see Brenchel Eliminated :groan:
-
Which one of these look more likely to you guys? Legs in the same region/country have no rest days in between.

How about this??? (Btw, same dates you have)
Leg 5 Colombo, Sri Lanka Margie/Luke eliminated
Leg 6 Bangalore, India Typical Indian FF.....Brenchel went for it and balked again,
came in last--Eliminated (Bangalore is really close to Sri Lanka and
would be a short leg)
Leg 7 Italy? Caroline/Jenifer came in last, NEL
Leg 8 Rome Speedbump for C/J

Check again. The second leg in India in TAR20 also had a FF (switchback shaving head - Brenchel drama moment -) after a NEL (Mark & Bopper doing the tiger painting SB).

So it did! My bad! :funny:
So that's 2 FF after NEL's, so I guess this Leg could fine well have FF. :groan:

I posted this on the Speculation Thread but thought I better post it here too. :)
---------------------------------------------------------
Leg 1 - 11th - NaNa
Leg 2 - 10th - Mark & Mallory
Leg 3 - 9th - Youtube (or NEL)
Leg 4 - NEL (or Youtube)
Leg 5 - 8th - Brenchel or Margie & Luke
Leg 6 - NEL (Caroline & Jen NEL)
Leg 7 - Rome - Unknown
So what I gather from this, is although Margie & Luke and Brenchel were the last 2 teams on what is to believed Leg 5 (Colombo), which ever one of the 2 wasn't eliminated got ahead of the Country Singers on Leg 6 for them to be NEL.
BUT what if there were 2 Elimination Legs in a row, Leg 5 and 6, Leg 6 being Colombo, which saw both Margie & Luke, and Brenchel eliminated, and then CaroJen came last on Leg 7, and Rome is actually Leg 8?
This is only based on the facts that there's been no sighting of either Margie & Luke or Brenchel for quite a while, and we did lose all the teams for a 2 days, a couple of days back.
Or maybe I'm toootally wrong! *-:) :funny:
-------------------------------------------------------------
-
Yes, it could happen. We're making specs, so any thing is possible. :)
-
There may also have been a team before Dave Connor.
-
I think all but Brenchel were seen.
Margie & Luke were spotted in Rome? Serious??? :yess:

But Dr Rox, where did you hear everyone but Brenchel were seen?
-
Margie and luke haven't been spotted. the red coat is clearly jess from (john and jess)
please get your facts straight. Luke doesn't have long hair, john does.
* It's not necessary to tell someone to get their facts straight. Keep personal comments out of your posts.*
-
if Brenchel got speed bump & uturn it's a dead end for them, i remember vaguely that Mona & Beth survived both, whilst Nicky & Kim don't.
but that only because Joey & Meghan sucks
it's always a double u-turn lately, is it? when was the last time we have a single u-turn?
still no absolute precise oh yeah that's definitely them sighting of Margie & Luke?
-
Margie and luke haven't been spotted. the red coat is clearly jess from (john and jess) please get your facts straight. Luke doesn't have long hair, john does.
Hi johnny, I am trying to get my facts right by asking if anyone sighted Margie & Luke. And yes, I know the red coat is Jessica. I am trying to understand why DrRox commented that all teams except Brenchel are seen. Thanks.

Re Neobie
I don't think the pitstop was just after the spanish steps task because
1) The photos of the teams at the pitstop just started arriving in the last hour
2) Afghanimals & Globetrotters arrived at same time although Afghanimals left first (They could have lost their way though)
3) I would say both Afghanimals & Globetrotters seem safe from the screen-cap although Globetrotters left the task in last place (Other teams may have lost their way also or maybe there was another final team behind)
-
Well Connor still has his Roman Senator costume on............did he have it on at the RB? I never saw him, just his dad at the RB?
Roman Senate meet at the Roman Curia......where is that in relationship to the locations we know?
Looks like Afghananimals and Globes did different detour than Dave and Connor
-
It's the greeter, not Connor.
-
LOL..........okay, my bad!!
Phil and his earmuffs..........must be pretty windy there today.
-
I thought after the Roadblock, we still have Ponte Sant' Angelo?

I thought after the Roadblock, we still have Ponte Sant' Angelo?
It could be a RI Point / Speedbump location for the country girls.

GE says it is 35 minutes from airport to Spanish Steps

Can the Speed Bump really be confirmed? Sounds a little fishy

There is a picture of the sign... but I agree it doesn't really seem to add up. I'm sure once more information is discovered it should make more sense. I don't really think they would do that to throw us off?

I do. Especially when there are 2 unspotted teams. Easy throw off to get people thinking 1 of the eliminated teams is still in

Four out 6 "confirmed" teams are M/M. Pretty good chance that it could be an all male Final 3, but if not, it'll be a great story for John & Jessica being for real, as well as Caroline & Jennifer doing well twice in as many ran seasons

oh i'm sorry it's because i assume that the speedbump is a fake since we're currently talking about "fishy speedbumps"
with that being said, leg 6 is actually an elimination leg and both Brenchel and Margie & Luke are actually eliminated in leg 5 - 6
-
The speedbump pic is true, there is a picture of it. Stop making things more difficult. blahblah
-
What I'm hoping for, is that Brenchel are actually still in, took the lead after all teams flew on the same flight and managed to win the leg by a huge lead by taking the FF :conf: :cheer: :cheer: :conf:
If they're gone, I'll gave to root for country singers or JJ :groan:
-

There are also pictures of decoy racers (in the past) near the end of the race... to throw us off. It is not impossible that it is meant to throw us off. We are not making things more difficult, we are discussing the spoilers and talking it out.

If they want to throw us off, they just put Miley Cyrus picture on it.. Caro/jen got NEL-ed still seems logical to me.

I agree, I think it was a legit speedbump. But I don't think it is impossible that it wasn't, therefore speculating about its legitimacy / talking through what is going on is useful (especially if other posters think for whatever reason it is not legitimate).
-
I really think it is possible that there was at least one team before Dave and Connor. I thought saw a team before them. It is also possible that team was still there after they left. It is hard to tell much from a small screen.

Haha, I lololololed like crazy when I seen that! :funny:
I would :hrt: the Speedbump to be fake, and just to throw us off, but I cant understand why they would choose CaroJen as the "NEL" team? ???
-
If you look back to a picture of Luke from KL I think, he was wearing a turquoise top. There was more turquoise today, but also later when JJ/Afghanimals arrived, I was sure I saw another team in all black running around.
-

Yeah, we're just missing one unspotted team, it makes sense because we only saw it from webcam.. Hopefully we'll get the answer soon :)
-
I think that this season is following the route of season 19 (Asia (many legs) -Africa - Europe - Latin/South America - Finish line) and it will be possible than before the last leg, teams travel to mexico, bolivia or colombia :cheer:
and also i really think that rome is their next destination and it would have two legs in there :yess:
Pd:Sorry if i didn't write very well but I'm not an english speaker just another mexican fan of the reality. :hoot:
G
Nice Almaraz! We need more mexican presence here haha. ( I am too)
Anyway...since they're in Italy already and last we knew they were in Sri Lanka... could we have a country in between? Or did they really just made that huge leap?
It's good to know that. :hoot: mmmm i don't know why no one can think that maybe one of the past legs could be a double elimination leg. That's what i think but never knows what could happen to the teams. (However i strongly believe in a double elimination leg) :cheer:
-
i dont think it was a double elimination.
Anyway, ive been reading that d/c, country and cowboys arrived 1 hour earlier than the 3 remaining teams. Is is true?
-
Were John & Jessica eliminated? :'(
-

-
I forgot that Phil was seen the day before the teams in Rome!
That makes it much more likely that there was only one leg between Colombo and Rome, meaning Rome was likely Leg 7, and we have one team unaccounted for!
Also, Phil tweeted at the start of the race "12 shows, 21 days". Not sure if we're counting calendar days or perceived days?
-
Neobie, I'm pretty sure that is probably the number of days as seen in the Pacific time zone on the west coast, even though it might seem like 22 days for the Racers.
-
Maybe I need to go read my Jules Verne again, but shouldn't it be 20 days for the racers if they start by flying over the date line?
-
I believe it matters whether you go east or west around the world. All I am saying.

Yes, if they travel westward they will experience 20 sunrises but if they go eastward they will see 22. But this only means that the days get longer or shorter, not that they get any more time. I.e. the number of hours is constant.

what is the current status of margie and luke?

what is the current status of margie and luke?
Alive and breathing.
Whether or not they are still in the race is unknown.

So who's eliminated in Rome?????????
Praying for country singer :'( :'(

The lapse on the webcam site is available for yesterday. It's too fast. I tried pausing every second maybe I could have found the missing but failed. Maybe someone else can check also?
http://www.skylinewebcams.com/skyline/lapse.php?w=205&lang=de
-
Could what we have now be the 2nd leg in Rome? That would make it Leg 8 too right? Because we seem to have 1 missing team if CaroJen's Speedbump is indeed true. Perhaps they got NEL'ed on Leg 7?
-
Come on guys. Lets be real. Speedbump sign = speedbump. Why are we suddenly playing Conspiracy Theory? :groan:
-
LEAFSFAN. Can you clear your inbox please??
-
I really think the Speedbump sign/RI sign was probably AFTER the Spanish Steps too. When the last team passed that point, production would have dismantled that location. The photos of that location were all posted on social media after the RB. Since the photos were by different people, I believe that they were posted pretty quick from people's cell phones in probably near real time.
One interesting note, the location of the Speedbump sign is literally feet away from the suggested route from Da Vinci Airport to the Spanish Steps.
-
Come on guys. Lets be real. Speedbump sign = speedbump. Why are we suddenly playing Conspiracy Theory? :groan:
Does this mean 11 teams race in the final leg for the mil too?!? Yay! I love it when They dint try to throw us off

According to Wikipedia, usually the last 3 eliminated teams get to race as decoys.

giardini just means gardens......which gardens....did you ask him which one? There are a LOT of gardens in Rome.....it could be this one.......but who knows?
http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giardini_romani
It is also a very common name for restaurants
I did a search on GE for that word and got about 50 places in Rome.....lol. Btw, I did the search right after you posted the original note. It seemed a pretty senseless clue as it is stated.
Since it is close to the other places, I do like the Giardini de Lago at the Villa Borghese. It just says TAR all about the place. But this is just my very selfish speculation.
The Medici estate is next to the Spanish steps too. It could be the gardens on this estate.

The person who wrote the article noticed the camera crew at 12:30pm. There is a photo of Globetrotters, John/Jessica and Leo/Jamal at the pitstop. As these teams were still at the Spanish steps at around 12.30-1pm I think that the task at the steps was the last of the leg.

Basically, it says that the journalist was at Piazza dil Poppolo yesterday at 12.30pm when he saw this people with cameras and a strange man dressed as a roman. His first thought was "a movie", but later one of them showed an announce saying AR24, meaning it is The Amazing Race; what was confirmed when he saw Phil there.
The rest of the article is a description of the show.
The pic is in the sightings thread.

Looks like J/J are safe too. I never realized that John was so tall, or Jessica for that matter. Flight Time (Herbert) is 6'4" tall.
-
So John/Jessica arrived after FlightTime/BigEasy

So John/Jessica arrived after FlightTime/BigEasy
Looks like it to me as there is a photo in Live Sightings of Globetrotters and L/J already at mat.
-
Yeah also Flighttime was looking in the opposite direction as if someone was coming in this way.
I think it doesn't add up that this was the last task. I don't believe Caro/Jen were able to finish the speed bump and even have more than 1 hour lead over some teams going into this task.
-
We have the other picture of Dave/Connor on the mat but have yet to see Caro/Jen or the Cowboys. People are assuming that that C/J and the Cs were indeed a bit ahead but there are no guarantees that they arrived before the groups that have been verified.
-
What separates teams more than an hour if there's no task before the Roadblock? :(
-

Cowboys and C/J left the Spanish Steps about 1:15 before the Globetrotters......they had come and gone from the mat when the group got to the mat. They were just not tweeted about.......lol
The webcam feed is not in real time. There is a time delay. But the time differential still remains the same with respect to the teams arrival and departure.
-
So, assuming that even with the Speedbump that both Caro/Jen and the Cowboys arrived before the three teams currently on the mat, which team was eliminated?
-
So there was a photo with Globes and Animals at the mat in Rome at the same time, then now there's another one with the two teams + Jessica & John, so Jessica & John probably arrived/checked-in after the other two?
-
Giardinis also a hotel near the action yesterday.
-
So, assuming that even with the Speedbump that both Caro/Jen and the Cowboys arrived before the three teams currently on the mat, which team was eliminated?
If we assumed this,I think JJ probably last
-
So, assuming that even with the Speedbump that both Caro/Jen and the Cowboys arrived before the three teams currently on the mat, which team was eliminated?
Well, I am assuming it is the missing team, which ever it is. In my own personal evil world, Brenchel would have been eliminated at the Rome airport by Phil on his way to the next leg...ala the NFL players in TAR 23. The last we hear from Rachel is an over dub of her last trip to Italy........
"This is not fair! This is the Amazing Race. It is supposed to be fun!!"

Pls no.
Please tell me they were 10 hours ahead of all the other teams, took the fast forward, and have now already left for another country for the next leg.
Like, I like JJ a lot and I don't want them eliminated, too, but let it be like that if it's Brenchel that get eliminated instead.... :/

Someone...........anyone............Buehler..........refresh my memory. In the TAR US version, has Phil EVER eliminated a team when multiple teams have been on the mat. For the life of me, and I got back to Season 1, Leg 1........I can not remember one single time of an event like that happening. So if you know of one, please let me know. TIA
-
No offense to the few posters left but board seems alwfully boring with the Zzzzzz teams Leftover all the teams with the fans,the excitement and bring fans to social media were eliminated in the first four legs! Whose left boring country singers,the even more boring JJ,whiny Luke,homoohobic cowboys,arrogant afghans,annoying and annoying trotters!Only maybe interesting team is Dave and Connor who I liked on there season and was sad they had to leave.One team is not going to make me suffer through this boring season but for those watching good luck hope your team wins so we never have to see them back on show!

Someone...........anyone............Buehler..........refresh my memory. In the TAR US version, has Phil EVER eliminated a team when multiple teams have been on the mat. For the life of me, and I got back to Season 1, Leg 1........I can not remember one single time of an event like that happening. So if you know of one, please let me know. TIA
in season 21 leg 1 this happened

Season 21 Leg 1 The Chips, Trey and Lexie, Gary and Will were all the the mat when Rob/Shelia were eliminated.

Just want to say thanks for the replies. I will re-watch the episode on my DVR tonight. Again thanks a bunch.

What separates teams more than an hour if there's no task before the Roadblock? :(
Getting lost....

So John/Jessica arrived after FlightTime/BigEasy
So John/Jessica arrived after FlightTime/BigEasy
Looks like it to me as there is a photo in Live Sightings of Globetrotters and L/J already at mat.
So there was a photo with Globes and Animals at the mat in Rome at the same time, then now there's another one with the two teams + Jessica & John, so Jessica & John probably arrived/checked-in after the other two?
Good speculation everyone! And an especial thank you to Dr ROx for the great time summary.
But there is no answer here. JJ could be ahead...with the others brought in.. Or the other way around. Someone could get a penalty...or not.
In the old days the team who arrived first would be on Phil's left (from his pt of view)...but that has not always held true in recent seasons.
So loads of questions, not many answers.

After noticing some familiar patterns, I went back in the archeives and looked back at the last returning racer edition of TAR, TAR 18. To refresh your memory, the route was........
Leg 1 -- Australia (Sydney)
Leg 2 --Australia (Broken Hill)
Leg 3 -- Japan (Tokyo)
Leg 4 -- China (Lijiang)
Leg 5 -- China (Kumming)
Leg 6 -- India (Kolkata)
Leg 7 -- India (Varanasi)
Leg 8 -- Austria (Vienna to Salzburg -- self driving leg)
Leg 9 -- Austria/Suisse (Salzburg to Zermatt -- train ride leg)
Leg 10 -- Suisse (Zermatt)
Leg 11 -- Brasil (Rio de Janeiro)
Leg 12 -- USA (Miami/Florida Keys)
So the pattern was almost always 2 legs per country, with the exception of Japan and Brasil. Austria had one leg and Suisse shared 1/2 a leg with Lichtenstein. But since they are so close together, you can almost say 3 legs in Austria/Lichtenstein/Suisse
So now we have TAR24 and so far we have:
Leg 1 -- China (Guangzhou)
Leg 2 -- China (Guangzhou)
Leg 3 -- Malaysia (Kota Kinabalu)
Leg 4 -- Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur)
Leg 5 -- Sri Lanka (assumed Colombo)
Leg 6 -- ??
Leg 7 -- Italy (Rome)
Leg 8 -- Italy (apparently from social media)
So I am going to propose that Leg 6 was in Sri Lanka or close by in South India/Maldives. Only Sri Lanka has a direct flight to Rome, but all have lots of connections through all the Persian Gulf airports.

Brenchel for the FF and demolishing all of the 3peaters in the next legs <3 :yess:

Not sure how I feel about all these double legs in the same country.

Probably a bit ahead of myself but do you reckon that in the next all star type season that they may try to bring back Bopper & Mark again?
-

I really think they have a high chance of CBS asking them to come back, now that we have proven they have nothing against threepeaters. :res:
What I really hope they do is a season of all stars vs newbies. But the twist is the all stars are from very early seasons (S1 to S10) so that they are basically new to the mechanics of the current TAR.

Is Jordan confirmed? Because if it's not a hoax, there's a chance that it could be the missing leg between Sri Lanka and Rome.

Confirmed? Maybe I've missed something, but I haven't seen anything that suggests they went to Jordan. As far as I know, there's as much evidence for them going to Jordan as there is for them going to Mars.
Somebody posted a cryptic "Filming in Jordan!?!" (the entire message) a few days back but never provided a reason for believing it was true. It's possible, but completely unproven at this point.

Does anyone remember how many teams go to Sequesterville, and does it change from year to year?
Right now we have three teams confirmed to be there. If five teams usually make it there that would suggest both Margie/Luke and Brendon/Rachel were eliminated in Sri Lanka (or nearby), it makes no sense to send someone back from Rome to (I presume) Southeast Asia for sequester.

Regardless of destination, if the 7th-placing team were eliminated in Europe, and if sequesterville were in Asia, the 7th-placing team will be sent to Asia.

For some reason I have a feeling that there were only 6 teams left when Caroline & Jennifer got NEL? Which would mean both Margie & Luke and Brenchel are out, but again I'm only guessing, and could be totally wrong.

That would make sense, given the recent pattern. Don't think they'll have the second NEL so soon. So we'll likely see the next two boots before last NEL, or our 6th-place finisher, NEL, and then that would be it.

With a race of 12 legs and 11 teams..........you are going to have to have 3 non elimination type legs.....

Lots of assumptions here!
Let's also consider that just because there has always been a sequester....does NOT mean there always will be. Things could change at any time.
So...we have NO teams confirmed to be there...for now. :tup:
Locations for sequesters change. I know of ones in Mexico, Portugal, Thailand for sure. Season 23 was in ITALY. So location may or may not be helpful.
I think who travels changes. Depending on the season, I think both the 4th and 5th team remaining have been decoys. We have some idea from the Elim Station footage as well. I think in 14 that Mike and Mel went, just for a day... and they were eliminated 6th...meaning prob 2 teams either went straight to a hotel in finish city or ran decoy or just travelled with production.
Lots of options...

Thanks for your valuable input peach! I think that the sequesterville location is quite important too in terms of cost issue. I mean it really doesn't make economic sense to fly a team eliminated in Italy back to say, China. :lol:
-
Maybe this time it makes sense. First 3 or 4 teams eliminated were close to China. :)
-
Sequesterville depends where the first legs are. 23 started in South America then to Europe, so Italy is convenient. 22 in Oceania, 21 in China, 24 in China, 19 in Asia, so Thailand was the location.

The photo I just posted, looks to have Margie on the bottom. Not sure though.
-
Blue jacket one?? Same of production seen in second picture. Wearing a handbag. Not her :)
-
Like David said, why would Margie have a purse hanging on her left shoulder?
-
Is it possible that Brenchel and Margie & Luke are already eliminated in an elimination KOR leg?
whoever arrived last at the halfway pitstop got eliminated, and the one who arrived last at real the pitstop is also eliminated
and that would be Brenchel and Margie Luke
assuming both of them really are out.....
i wish the rumor of Brenchel took the FF is true
-
Are we still debating about Margie/luke and Brenchel? wait until a picture pops up of one of them in the next area possibly and we will know then. :waves:
-
We have never had a KOR which has been an elimination point, I think.

I'd bet my life against a double-boot. And if there was one, I wouldn't shake on it, LOL! Caroline & Jenn are impressive though; I'm hoping they win a lot this year. Sans the distraction of Bates and Anthony, this is the team we could've seen in Season 22.

From the live sightings thread...........
not a live sighting, travel blog entry.... (might help with the timeline "unknown")
Kegalle, Sabaragamuwa, Sri Lanka
Tuesday, November 26, 2013
today i arrived to millennium elephant orphanage! was a bit sad to say good bye to nishan and his mother, that works at the guest house i've stayed at two times in kandy. but im sure i will be back again. today i've got showed around the elephant orphanage, otherwise i haven't done much. i watched when the elephants had their "play time" looking for fruits that got hidden for them around a field. there were also an american tv-show called amazing race that were filming here today! i arrived on the best day, because tonight there is bbq for dinner. nicenice. and tomorrow at 7 i will meet my elephant rani for the first time, and do some teaching for local kids. exciting!
If TAR was filming on Nov 26 in Sri Lanka, looks like Leg 6 was there. That lets Phil fly to Rome on the 27 and teams fly in on 28 for Leg 7.

Can someone tell me if the elimination station still exist and why they cut off from the tv since season 17? :o
-

They still send eliminated teams to a resort somewhere to await the end of the race, so I guess you can say the elimination station still exists. I'm not sure why they stopped filming those videos, but I expect someone around here will know. My best guess is that the budget for the show was cut and one of the ways they are saving money is to stop filming the elimination station videos.

Did anyone watch the Macy's day parade? Was Brenchel really on it, or was it pictures of them?

If they were in the parade (physically) I would say it for sure confirms they have been eliminated.

That's a photoshop job IMO.

LOL...it was partly cloudy and 35 degrees was the high. She doesn't look like she is in that kind of weather. So, I would guess photo shopped, is old or the float just had pictures of them. I really can't even imagine a Brenchel float anyway (unless it was as part of a TAR or CBS float). But, I guess I didn't want to discount it when I saw it. :)

Not to mention that teams would not be allowed home before the end of filming...so NOT.

Maybe the 8th leg isn't to be Italy, it could be in Western European country such as Belgium, Luxembourg or the Netherlands.
TAR2 and TAR13 have the fewest countries in standard format (total of 8 countries, including USA) - not include Family Edition
TAR2: USA-Brazil-South Africa-Namibia-Thailand-China (Hong Kong)-Australia-New Zealand-USA
TAR13: USA-Brazil-Bolivia-New Zealand-Cambodia-India-Kazakhstan-Russia-USA
Both raced in 5 continents.
-
Also have another confirmation of KANDY as our next leg, so those two go very well together!!
Additionally, thanks to a find from Leafsfan, we also believe that teams may do a challenge at the Colombo World Trade Center.
Are teams coming back to Sri Lanka? :crazy:
Or this is the second leg in Sri Lanka after Colombo? Most Likely, but the way peach word it made me confuse :funny:

There was a possible sighting in Rome for potential Leg 8. There were no teams seen, but just crew and a clue box.
-
I like the route design (China --> Malaysia --> Sri Lanka) but I really dislike all the double legs (two legs, 1 country) :pity
At least we have Leg 6. However, if Margie & Luke & Brenchel were the last 2 teams in Leg 5, it seems likely that they were eliminated in Legs 5 & 6. Although if Rome was Leg 7, it would be hard to see how Caroline & Jennifer got that far behind to get NELed.

Tensions.........that is funny in a way. The tensions go back to the 1930s and the Spanish Civil War. Franco and the Republicans tried to get the Brits out of Gibraltar. The Spanish government locks the border gate every now and then, but it disrupts the local Spanish population that crosses and works in Gibraltar lots more than the residents of the "Rock."

Just throwing it out there, but could Malta be between Rome and Seville, as a leg????

I'm to post this here because we don't have a confirmation on this. I saw early this tweet and later SteKay did the same and asked me for a proper translation, and it has appeared on Sucks the whole conversation:
(http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/xq90/545/c4wa.png) (http://imageshack.com/i/f5c4wap)
Jonander is asking if is real that Brenchel have been seen on Seville. When I asked him for the source of that info, he replied that it's coming from a friend, but he thinks that he's playing a joke on him.
So the accuracy of this info is not 100 % until we can find any other proof of it.
-

(http://i850.photobucket.com/albums/ab68/memmathis/PlazadeEspana_zps4c12f2ad.jpg)
Looks like there might be a few other teams present too?
-
She said they were probably the cowboys?
This is the best we have, but they sure look like locals to me...

Jessica is in the picture with her light green hat too :) And is that Rachel second from the left?
-
Where do we see Jessica with a green hat please? Two women on the left are production.
I am wondering if 4th person from the left is not a white haired man but perhaps someone with a cap on.
Is this of any use?
(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb140/ga--peach/TAR%2024/Sevilla/closeup.jpg)
-
I don't think based on that particular picture we can decipher Jessica as the girl in the beanie.
-
That is not what I mean. Where have we previously seen Jessica in a green hat? Picture please?
-

She was wearing one exactly like that but white at the Pit Stop in Rome.

Well, then it's as good as a random guess. No confirmation of this spec. from my point of view.
-
Did we not see leo in a luminous green hat like Jamal's top at some stage no?
-
Hats! :funny: The "green" could be a trick of the light too..

Can I give this photo a shot? I lightened it a bit.

the person in a grey backpack could be Brendon
not sure where's rachel is
-

Now that you said that, it seems more likely.

I think the green is someone wearing a green shirt. :)
-
I think the green is someone wearing a green shirt. :)
It seems like a person wearing a neon green jacket
-
Thanks TL!! :hearts:
But where in the world are you all seeing green shirts/jackets? ???
I see a seated person with long hair at the far right that seems to have a green cap on??
Standing person 2nd from Left with white cap...has on either a skirt or a long coat>> both rule out a racer.
Do we have anyone with lavender-grey packs?
-
the person in a grey backpack could be Brendon
not sure where's rachel is
Rachel and Brendon have BLACK packs
-
the person in a grey backpack could be Brendon
not sure where's rachel is
He looks too short to be Brendon IMO. And his hair looks too long
-
I have been playing with the photo more and more. Cropped, lightened, etc. Added some group names so it is easier to know who we are talking about (sorry I get easily confused)....
(http://i850.photobucket.com/albums/ab68/memmathis/PlazadeEspana2_zps80ad11d0.jpg)
Group 1: May be crew or maybe a local media? The lady on the right of the group def has a regular camera - also it is def two women.
Group 2: I am pretty sure that is Dave on the right, no matter what I do to the image it is def grey hair and does not appear to be a cap. Height is right for him too. His son maybe the individual on this left?
Group 3: The one on the left is not a Globetrotter and I think he is too tall to be Leo. His hair is too dark to be John too. The person on the right with the smaller backpack could be a female or is it possibly Leo? I don't recognize the back packs on either of these two, if they had a green tint I would. Note: From playing with tints/hues, etc, if you add a little more yellow (just a little) the back packs are more of a greenish color. If you adjust the hue quite a pit you will get this:
<a href="http://s850.photobucket.com/user/memmathis/media/PlazadeEspana3Hue_zps30e61fb6.jpg.html" target="_blank">[/url]
Group 4: Looks to be two women possibly, for sure the one on the right is. Neither with blonde hair though. Also note the one on the right definitely looks to have long hair and be brunette (the one with the beanie like Jessica has been known to wear, but I think Meagan from the YT team wears them too). The one on the left at least has shoulder length hair which could be auburn.
Group 5: Looks like all crew people, but the three of them could include a racer for all I know...they are harder to make out than the ones in the front so to speak. :)
-
This is a super weird shot, as well as the Cowboys one. When are racers allowed to sit around and be interviewed?? ???
My take
Gp 1 production
Gp 2 production, one on right has on long coat or skirt...
Gp 5 could be cameraguys as well...or not
-
I have a hard time believing that there any teams in there. It looks entirely like production staff to me.
I would imagine that teams would be heading for hotels and downtime, not lingering in the cold once they finish racing.
The pics are so grainy, though, can't be sure of anything.
-
So, we can say that the leg 9 (or 10) is in spain for sure? And how many teams are still in the race? I get confused :gaah:
-
The missing leg was Borneo
-
The missing leg was Borneo
7
And how do you know that? :ascared
-
Is it weird that the place where cowboys did the interview is different from this one? I know that they do interview in different places but it seems to be so far between two places.
-
Brenchel?
(http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/ff397/farhan_zouly/image_zpsa1fd05c2.jpg)

Surely them?!
-

Welcome to RFF taylorshank! We'd love to know if they went to Borneo. Could you tell us how you found this information?
:bigwelcome
-
Brenchel?
That would make me SO happy! Fingers crossed!!!
-
Looks like Margie & Luke were eliminated in 8th again and Brenchel are still in. But a 3 continent race is disappointing.
-
The pic by Rafael Rivera @rriveraabogados in live sightings looks to be the same place we have a picture of the cowboys interview.A later pic possibly shows brenchel interview there.
-
That is Brendon's green jacket I recognized from earlier. Its them doing interviews. :hoot:
-

The place is the same. The angle where pics were taken from are different. Check the position of the white cloth. In cowboys pics is behind them. In the other one, is ahead of the person who took the pic.

For anyone who is unsure, the pit stop location is being used to conduct the post-leg debriefing interview of the teams after they check in. For whatever reason, production chose that very public venue to film the interviews. (Phil also interviews teams on the mat, but the debrief interviews are the ones we usually see in an episode or as an insider video posted after the broadcast. The bright white lights and reflective white sheets are used to make sure the Racers are not in shadow during the recording of the interview, moreso with the use of HD.
-
I never gave up on the red queen when everyone else thought they were gone, I knew they weren't <3 long live rachelgoddess to destroy the cowboys in the finals <3 :yess:
-
Here is info I got via private conversation on twitter.
Afghanimals are safe after this leg and there is a high possibility they finished the leg first.
Here is part of the conversation where he gave me that info:
He: I saw a team. I dont know who they are. 2 guys.
Me: There are 3 teams of two guys. Can you describe them a bit. (Father-son) (2 tall black guys) (2 guys with beards)
He: The guys with beards!!!!! Yes hahahaha I think that they won the race today, but I am not 100% sure. Hope my info helped you
*I then showed him a picture of Leo/Jamal and he confirmed it*
Aren't there 4 teams of guys, with Jet and Cord?
-
Think about this, all post leg interviews are conducted in a private area. Why would they set up an interview in a very public place knowing full well they would be seen by TAR detectives? My theory, Brenchel are a decoy. How better to throw off the trail then with disinformation or trickery?
-
so country singers still in a race???????? anybody confirm?????????? :'( :'( :'(
Doubt it :'( :'( everyone else is seen past this point

I agree. Decoy team
-
I just don't know that Rachel looks like she is in racing clothes, but I really can't tell what she has on. And, of course it is Rachel and she can come up with some outfits for sure.
I guess what bothers me, is that I do think she in Brendon are in the photo earlier with all those production people and it really makes me wonder if they aren't traveling with production as a decoy team. I think someone mentioned earlier that sometimes the decoys travel with production.
But, maybe I have wanted this so bad that I am afraid to say they are or aren't in! :funny:
-
Would they set up all of that equipment and crew just to throw us off?
-
If Rachel is in that photo, 2nd from the left, it looks like she has a camera in her hands. I really don't think it's her though because whoever this is, she has pants on and I don't think we'd see Rachel wearing them. :)
-
lol @ all the brenchal haters here saying they are just for decoy. :waves: sorry they will destroy your cowboys.

I mean the pic of Cowboys and the pic of "neo hat colored girl", not the pic of look-like Brenchel.

Surely you jest, this IS Rachel we're talking about. :funny:
-
I'm still counting Brenchel as being at risk because while the colours likely match we haven't seen them actually racing.
-
The missing leg was Borneo
Welcome to RFF taylorshank! We'd love to know if they went to Borneo. Could you tell us how you found this information?
:bigwelcome
Texas Lady, here is a map of the island of Borneo. It is divided into the three main political divisions.......Malaysian Borneo, Indonesian Borneo and the Sultanate of Brunei. Kota Kinabalu is in the north in Sabah province.

I can confirm leg2 in guangzhou they did interview in public area.
and I think brenchel still racing... :funny:
-
To everyone who is saying the Brencel is a decoy because they did an interview in a public place, doesn't this make Jet and Cord a decoy as well? They did an interview in the same spot.
For some reason I don't think its Brenchel, maybe its Jessica and John. And I doubt they are decoys, have we ever seen decoy teams doing interviews before?
-
Rachel does wear pants and especially leggings. The high was 69 today, which may not seem cold to some, to people who have spent their last few years in a warm climate it can seem a little chilly.
That is definitely not John & Jessica being interviewed.
Are the Cowboys, Afghanimals and Brenchel the only teams spotted today? Is it possible that big group with crew in front of the fountain at the Plaza de Espana, is the production crew with a couple of eliminated teams (decoys)?
If they have done public interviews this season, I am going to keep my fingers crossed that Brenchel is not a decoy team (today at least)...since we don't know of boot order today it is possible they were eliminated today.
-
I do think it's Brenchel. She's always on Brendon's left side, right?
-
I'm gone one day and people saying brenchel still in race ? Come on all those pics posted and no brenchel siting and now I'm supposed to believe in race? I'm guessing the boards were buzzing with disgruntled fans upset about best teams leaving so CBS must drag out brenchel from elimination and use them as decoys so there fans still watch show? I need hard proof before I get my hopes up!
-
If that is indeed Brenchel, it would make sense, as we know one of the Sri Lanka legs (Leg 6) was a NEL as Caroline and Jennifer's Speed Bump was spotted on Leg 7 in Rome. That would make Margie and Luke's elimination in Leg 5. Hooray!
-

Read the spoilers before posting please; CBS would NEVER drag a favourable team from elimination.
-
I can only think of one instance, some seasons ago, when a team that was eliminated was sent to a city in the Netherlands IIRC and were photographed by the local media, and interviewed for one outlet. There was one cameraman with them. At the time, the detectives deduced that it was a decoy.
I've never seen or heard of production doing those debriefing interviews with one much less more than one eliminated team. The Cowboys were pretty clearly interviewed there; whether the other team is Brendon and Rachel I can't tell, and I think we'd need something more than a distant behind from the backside view to be sure.
Until there is evidence to show otherwise I'm going to maintain my assumption that production was doing the post-leg debriefing interviews of the teams at the pit stop before the teams went to their hotel or possibly prepped for a release to the next leg after a short rest period. (TAR 19 in Japan, folks).

...or post elimination interview.
-
This is a returning racers season...more rather than less decoys would have been smart. So that prob means no decoys here. :funny:
-
Based on this post in the timeline summary...
Spanish Steps on 28 Nov and Seville on 3 Dec points towards 2 legs in between. What evidence did we have for Rome II anyway?
16 Nov: Los Angeles
17 Nov: -
18 Nov: Guangzhou I (1)
19 Nov: Guangzhou II (2)
20 Nov: -
21 Nov: Kota Kinabalu (3)
22 Nov: Kuala Lumpur (4)
23 Nov: -
24 Nov: Colombo (5)
25 Nov: -
26 Nov: Kandy (6)
27 Nov: -
28 Nov: Rome (7)
29 Nov: ?
30 Nov: ?
1 Dec: ?
2 Dec: ?
3 Dec: Seville (10)
And, if I have read correct, Phil's tweet was correct 12 shows and 21 days...we are looking at filming ending about Friday the 6th? And, probably only two more legs?
-
I would not place 100% faith in what Phil said...we have heard THAT before!! :colors
-
Let's look ahead.
Suppose they stay nearby...Granada?? Gibralter? Can we get some transport ideas going?
-
I wonder what end city will be. I'm personally hoping for New Orleans. The city is definitely doing well and with Wrestlemania 30 coming from there in 2014, I'd love a WWE related task xD I was very disappointed we didn't get one in New York given the history of MSG but oh well
-
It's not quite the same thing, but they did do a wrestling related task in Bolivia some years back.
-
Does Any One of You Spotted Caroline & Jenn in Sevile?
Hope There Not Eliminated!!! :'(
Fingers Crossed!!!!!

From the sightings:
ABC de Sevilla @abcdesevilla 2min
La norteamericana CBS graba en Sevilla «The Amazing Race» http://ow.ly/rrh9C vía @Sevilla_Ciudad | #Sevillahoy
The american CBS filmed in Seville The Amazing Race.
Not exactly a sighting, but the interest of the article is this part:
"Cinco equipos se han echado a las calles de Sevilla con el objetivo de salir triunfantes en el capítulo diez de la última temporada de este éxito de la televisión norteamericana CBS, múltiple ganador de los premios Emmy."
"Five teams have taken the streets of Seville with the objective of emerge triumphant in the tenth episode of the last season from this success of the american television network CBS, winner of multiple Emmy Awards."

Brenchel in F5 <3
Now we just need CaroJen and I would DIE of happiness <3
They could still save the season <3

Jet or Leo? Maybe Jet.
-
it doesn't look like any team, its probably production getting shots of what the teams have to do.
-
From the quote Alenaveda got from the newspaper in Seville, we're getting very close to the last leg.
I'd be shocked if this time all of Oceania, Africa, the Caribbean and Latin America are left out of the race.
I have hoped for Mexico for more than 20 seasons and I've got a feeling that it may finally happen this time.
The only intermediate point with multiple daily non-stops & dozens of flight connections, westbound from Spain, towards the USA, and with scores of daily direct flights to almost anywhere in the USA (unless they backtrack through the UK) and which also belongs in both, the Caribbean and Latin America, is Cancun.
So we have actually begun our approach to Cancun and our seats and trays are in the upright position!
-
So it is now confirmed that Seville is our 10th leg and we have 2 missing in between Spain and Italy.
That's so interesting, can't wait to (later) find out the countries they visited :wohoo:
-
:yess: found it! Bulls are roaming Calle Lope de Rueda off Plaza Alfaro in Barrio de Santa Cruz in Seville.
-

That's so interesting, can't wait to (later) find out the countries they visited :wohoo:
I have a feeling that there will be a double leg in Rome or Italy. For leg 9, I think they travelled somewhere else in Europe. A single leg in Africa is highly unlikely. Since there were no sightings in between Rome and Seville, I guess is that they went somewhere in Balkans or Eastern Europe. My guess is Serbia. It's a new country, and a flight from Rome to Belgrade would be quick. If not Serbia, a country like Malta would fit in perfectly too!
-
The important thing to note is that 5 teams are left, so we have had all our NELs
-

Which means only 1 of Cancer, Globes and country girls eliminated, but 1 could have been eliminated at this last pitstop though?

That's a possibility yes, as Rome I would have most likely been an elimination leaving us with 6 (?) teams left, so either Leg 8 or Leg 9 was also an NEL, which means another elimination before Seville
-
I was exchanging DMs with the guy who took the pic of the cowboys yesterday, and he told me that they were the lasts doing the confessional. Maybe it's nothing, just an internal order of filming; but can also be a hint for the result of the leg. :duno:

There are 2 (Iberia & Aeromexico) flights from Madrid to Mexico City. There are many other locations in Central and South America served very well from Madrid or Lisbon. I think this is where the next leg will be taking place.
If there wont be any new Central American country, TAR 23 will have the worst route in the history of The Amazing Race. I hate double legs and will sign that with my own blood.

*TAR 24
I don't Mexico would solely save this season's route, especially since it would be the last leg (before coming back to the US). If they really skipped Africa this season, the only things that could save the route are new European countries. Or some visited waay back

This just about gave me a heart attack! But thinking about it, Tim and Marie seemed to do the alst confessional on the most recent ep, and finish 2nd. Did he say what other teams he saw?
-
It is possible that leg 9 was in Africa isn't it? But, I guess that would have made more sense before Italy.
Maybe they went to Liechtenstein :hrt:
As to final leg...
Would be interesting if Pagosa Springs, CO was the ending location...saw this on Twitter today.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=546292322130778&l=55de966c3f
But, with this winter storm coming in this week that would not be a fun trip to make.

Yeah, but you don't know when Marie did their interview and the source said that cowboys were the last ones to do their interview, so that could really tell they were last on this leg. Do I understand this correctly?
However, it's just a spec anyway.
-
It is all making sense now, that is why the cowboys look so depressed/angry in the confessional pic, its because they were most likely last and got eliminated. :wohoo: Brenchal slayed them! :yess:
-
I've been talking to Monkey_D_Fede, the source of the Twitter pic. Here is his info.
- He took the cowboys pic at about 3.10pm Seville time
- He saw a father/son team, grey haired dad (I presume Dave and Connor) at 1.20 finishing the leg
- He didn't see any other teams
- He says the Cowboys looked happy in their confessional thing
I hope they aren't eliminated! Based on the time of the pic, you can probably say Cowboys checked in around an hour after Dave and Connor?
-
So, there's 4 days between Leg 7 and Leg 10, and there's no sightings in-between. I think one possibility is that teams drove a part of the way between Italy and Spain, I think a leg in the Italian-French-Spanish countryside could be an option :gnome
Edit: Plus, isn't the Final 6-7 the time when Ford does its heaviest product placement?
-
I hpe cowboys got last which explains why they look mad in the pic. :cheer:
-
I think they are coming to mexico, uruguay or maybe colombia for leg 11 and then they travel to arizona or ohio(?) But that is just a feeling :hugs: But I still hoping for Mexico. :cheer:

Based on SIGHTINGS and SPECULATION, I'm GUESSING it might go down like this:
11th: Natalie & Nadiya
10th: Mark & Mallory
9th: Joey & Meghan
8th: Margie & Luke
7th: John & Jessica
6th/5th: Caroline & Jennifer/Flight Time & Big Easy
F4: Jet & Cord, Dave & Connor, Afghanimals, Brendon & Rachel

Because he was working on the zone, and could only be free for taking pics after he finished work. He saw what happened from there. And he told me they were the last because he watched when the horse in the PS was retired from there after the cowboys arrived and were received by Phil:

Mmm, i don't think that Mexico isn't safe (because i live in there and i don't hear the shots yet) :xmas146 but for many countries i think it is :cmas4 so, if there isn't in mexico, could be argentina (again) or brazil. :cmas16
What about Venezuela, TARUSA have not been there yet IIRC... or Dominican Republic that's another country we haven't seen outside of TARLA.

From the sightings:
ABC de Sevilla @abcdesevilla 2min
La norteamericana CBS graba en Sevilla «The Amazing Race» http://ow.ly/rrh9C vía @Sevilla_Ciudad | #Sevillahoy
The american CBS filmed in Seville The Amazing Race.
Not exactly a sighting, but the interest of the article is this part:
"Cinco equipos se han echado a las calles de Sevilla con el objetivo de salir triunfantes en el capítulo diez de la última temporada de este éxito de la televisión norteamericana CBS, múltiple ganador de los premios Emmy."
"Five teams have taken the streets of Seville with the objective of emerge triumphant in the tenth episode of the last season from this success of the american television network CBS, winner of multiple Emmy Awards."
The news has been wrong before , just saying :cmas19

I think they are coming to mexico, uruguay or maybe colombia for leg 11 and then they travel to arizona or ohio(?) But that is just a feeling :hugs: But I still hoping for Mexico. :cheer:
Mexico isn't safe.

Why?
-
If they are in Spain, maybe we should check for Morroco? It's very close and It will count as another continent!
-
So has the group pretty much decided that Brenchel is still in the race? hard to tell from that photo.
-
Just remember, opinion is not fact. Unless a team has clearly been seen in a location, their presence is an opinion, not a fact.
Same thing about whether there are or aren't legs between previously identified locations where legs were documented. Those are opinions, and not fact.
Now, at some point, we will have a collection of facts, and a collection of opinions and the combination will likely yield to explaining the gaps in what was not observed. But (and this is important) that association may not turn out to be accurate with what we learn later or when the episode or leg finally airs.
In other words, folks, as I like to say, "assumptions are dangerous."
-

It isn't hard to tell that that is them at all.
That guy is wearing the exact same jacket that Brenden has. He has the exact same build and hair as Brenden. His team mate is a girl. They are being interviewed in the same position the cow boys were being interviewed, meaning they are a team. It was already speculated that there was a team missing when they were spotted in Italy and now it's obvious that that team was Brenden and Rachel and not Margie and Luke.
-
Because he was working on the zone, and could only be free for taking pics after he finished work. He saw what happened from there. And he told me they were the last because he watched when the horse in the PS was retired from there after the cowboys arrived and were received by Phil:

[/quote]
From a logistical point of view, wouldn't it make sense to retire the horse after each team checked in? I am coming to terms with the reality that the Cowboys are probably out, but I highly doubt that the horse would stay at the pit stop mat in between teams checking in?
-
I am glad the cowboys were in it for that long. Yeah I hope they make the final 3, but I am ok if not.
-

How is it hard to telll?? Same build as brendon & we have a clear shot of brendon in that green jacket. Who else could it be ??????

Did Country Singers made it to top 5? Someone thought Flight Time & Big Easy may not be seen in Seville. One tweet poster that there were three male teams raced in Seville (Afghans, Cowboys and Cancer). I hope CaroJen survives in Seville.

If that is the case, do they even bother interviewing that supposed decoy teams?
at the very least Brenchel & Cowboys are not that decoy teams. whether the interview is about their elimination or not, there's no way we can find out.

I knew there is no news about it, but I was in the city centre and went for a walk trying to find something. I found something out.
They are not in Valencia. </3

I wouldn't be surprised if Leg 11 was in Madrid since the producers are going to have to fly across the Atlantic somehow. The only other place the producers could go to in Western Europe are Ireland and England. That being said, a Central America/Caribbean leg is welcome as well.
Still holding out hope for Morocco and/or Gibraltar.

could leg 8 and leg 9 are in rural areas in africa

I think there is a big twist this season. It's kind of a pattern with the two big returning teams seasons.
Season 11 (All-Stars): Elimination Station
Season 18 (Unfinished Buisness): Phil's Video Diary
Season 24 (Redemption??) : Elimination Station again?

This isn't a live sighting, but there is a very serious wind storm causing high winds and flooding in a good part of western Europe including Great Britain and Ireland, and apparently centered on the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark.
Not knowing what route or flights may have been planned by production at this stage of the Race, it is possible alternate legs or routes may have had to be used since this storm would impact rail, highway and air routes throughout much of Europe.
And there's another storm in the eastern Atlantic that already has winds exceeding gale force up to 60 mph near the Azores and expected to head towards Europe, and which may become a subtropical or tropical storm before then.
There's no certainty about whether either storm system is having an impact on filming, but it is something to be aware of.
-
Continuing the storm report..........there is 1.5 inches of ICE on the ground and everything else here in Dallas........storm is moving to the east. Temps are expected to remain below the freezing point till Monday afternoon.......Freezing rain is still falling at this time.
It will certainly be interesting to see where they are trying to end up in the US.
Power outages have affected 250,000 customers in Dallas/FtWorth metropolitian area.............figure 3 people per customer and means about 3/4 of a million people without power. DFW Airport is basically shut down. Airport officials handed out 3,000 cots last night for stranded passengers. All hotels are fully booked in airport area.
-
I certainly hope it's not anywhere in Texas! We've had sleet and icy conditions here in Austin. Possibly more to come.
-
Here in the midwest that system came through earlier this week and brought dense fog for a couple of days, with a slight amount of freezing drizzle, and then replaced with arctic cold temperatures starting yesterday and is expected to continue through the coming week; we're also expecting our first real snowfall of the season this weekend (Sunday) to ho go with the temperatures with lows dropping to zero or just below in F.
The system bringing the ice storm to the central US and severe t-storms and heavy snow to the central and eastern US now will be followed by another storm coming ashore in California, and that is the one that will bring the snow to the central US later this weekend, and that one will move to the east coast by the beginning of the coming work week.
I don't think there been another edition of the Race that was actually affected by so much severe weather since the Family Edition (season 8, with several landfalling hurricanes in 2005) was filmed as this one has faced and is potentially facing during this fortnight.
-
If by any chance Dallas was Plan A for a finale.....they better be working on Plan B. 1500+ flights cancelled at DFW airport today.
-
Stay warm, DrRox!!
-
Las Vegas for the night leg and finale...?! How cool.. :colors
Casino Task for sure... ;)
-
Based upon the obvious hint in the live sightings threads, be aware of the following in terms of the weather.
The final city weather is currently at 37 F with clear sky. However, a winter weather advisory will be in effect by (Saturday) morning in the surrounding areas, and there is a 70 percent chance of rain or snow tomorrow with the forecast morning low of 30 and a high late tomorrow of 43. That could lead to periods of icing on roadways and surfaces.
Just passing it on, just in case. It's the first time I can ever remember that weather was a potential issue in the final city.
-
If Brenchel is still in the race, they have a huge advantage because Rachel IS VEGAS!!!! :cmaslol :cmaslol :cmaslol
***sorry, just couldn't resist throwing in a little BB! This is exciting :)
-
Based on Peach's post it is likely that teams arrived on BA flight 275 arriving from London at 6:55 (scheduled 6:25). Idk if team flew directly from London or the flight was part of a connection.
-
Does anyone know the final 3?
Peach, are you hiding info from us?
-
I've been trying to monitor twitter, but am not seeing anything yet. I'm wondering if we're waiting for the teams to clear customs at the airport.
-
I think the cowboys, dave and connor and leo & jamal make the final 3 (just a prediction). And I hate that three male teams get into the final leg :cmas10, but whatever, I don't care who will win the race :cmas5. I have enough fun with all the speculation and discussion in here :cmas27. So, hoping for a great finale! :cmas9
(P.D: but if brenchel made into the final, I would love to see them win :cmas16)
-
Has there ever been a night finale, yes I skipped some seasons, sue me lol :mas25
-
TAR21, well the end of it :P
And the end of TARAus1 too :lol:
-
Has there ever been a night finale, yes I skipped some seasons, sue me lol :mas25
TAR 21 wasn't planned as a full nighttime final leg, as the current one seems to be. The final task took the teams so long, it ended well after sunset.
-
Thanks for answering my question appreciate it. :cmas22
-
Because of the late fall/early winter in U.S. cities, the sunrise for Las Vegas in December 7th is 6:39 a.m. while sunset is at 4:26 pm. There a might chance for a midday final leg.
-
Could the missing legs between Rome and Seville have been a Keep-on-racing/Zero-hour-pitstop....but with a U-Turn attached to the 2nd leg? [We've had one of these on TAR 23.] Plus, a KOR/ZHP hasn't been confirmed so far this season and TAR has liked to use them in recent seasons.
As for the possible night leg in Vegas, the weather might account for no good sightings. I don't think tourists are gonna be out on The Strip for long in 35-degree temps lol....especially on a Friday night.
-
Keep-on-racing/Zero-hour-pitstop....

Like, what's the difference between these 2? :cmaslol

-
Nadiya just tweeted. She is in Vegas :)
-
If she's tweeting, then it's all over.
The weather no doubt helped the secrecy. I saw more than a few tweets about how the streets were nearly empty due to the cold.
-
Everyone's tweeting again :lol:
The Race is definitely over. :P
-
Yup Meghan is responding to alot of tweets now.
-
Pretty surprising stuff that it ended before Sunday. It looked as if they were on pace to end on Monday. And a night final leg in Vegas is such a pure joy to learn about, and when the episode airs? Wow!
I sort of hoped that this would be the season where the eventual winners would destroy the other top teams so badly that they would cross the finish line while teams 2 & 3 were still in penultimate city. Doesn't look like it, and I hardly think the staff will allow what happened to David & Jeff and Joe & Bill to happen ever again.
Finally, I'm glad it wasn't in Pittsburgh. That would have been a painful miss (if they went through there, then so be it, but as long as that wasn't the end city, that is fair enough).
-
Yup Meghan is responding to alot of tweets now.
But She was also responding yesterday and the day before yesterday and the day before that.
I only saw Her and Joey's tweets, which wouldn't convince me that the Race is over, but Nadiya's tweet about being in Vegas convinced me enough :cmas19:
I really can't wait to watch this season!
-
Rachel is talking about her new book, Joey and Meghan are talking about They're messed up sleeping schedules , Nadiya talking about vegas trip. Race is definately over :cmaslol
-
Someone should just ask all of them, "Hey! What's happening? Where have to been?!"

Now all we have to do is find out who won!

England with that wind storm?
Italy -> Helvetica -> England -> Spain -> Paris ...?
-
So I'm a little confused, mainly because the producers have done an excellent job of hiding the final legs of this race.
In Rome we definitely had:
Globetrotters
Cowboys
Afghanimals
Dave & Connor
Jessica & John,
Caroline and Jennifer.
Then when we got to Seville we think we might have Brenchel still in it and be down to five teams.
Surely the win will have come (unfortunately) from one of the first four teams?

Not necessarily. JJ were likely eliminated in Rome. Seville there were 5 teams racing, 2 of which appear to be Cowboys and Brenchel and possibly the Aphganimals. The other 2 teams are unconfirmed and we don't know the placements of those 5 or past that.
I don't think it's wise to rule out teams because of perception based on their past or how well we think they may do. The strongest don't always win.
IMO any out of Cowboys, Aphganimals, Cancer, Globtrotters, Country Girls, and Brenchel could have won or made it to the end. Until otherwise proven.
-
So Vegas as the final city? Tis interesting to say the least.

I think it was just more saying with a photo that it was in Las Vegas. :kisses
-
Rachel and Brendon obvi won they post a pic and look wicked happy and elissa tweet Rachel saying "how 2 be the best at EVERYTHING/ 2 be the best big sister" in response to Rachel tweet about writing a book guess title. :xmas110
this season was saved by brenchal :cmas9
so long cowboys hahaha :cmas10
-
There were storms in both Europe and the US over the last week to 10 days that could have caused last minute substitutions of legs and locations. We really don't know. Las Vegas at night was apparently the end city, but that's not saying that was the plan when filming started.
As I noted above, I haven't seen a season filmed with so much potential impacts from weather since season 8. This does not mean other seasons didn't have impact but generally those were for specific legs or countries, and not potentially for half the legs as might have been the case this time. It will be very interesting to see what emerges.
And feel sorry for the Cowboys, who have to get back home to southeast Oklahoma which is part of the area with the most severe icing from the most recent storm (one to two inches thick) enough to make road travel impossible.
-
Ireland did not suffer much from the winds, but it is highly unlikely it would be the last country. More than likely the flight would go from Shannon Airport and connect in America. But again I doubt it, and if they were they more than likely wouldn't be spotted here :cmas13

I think the opposite. If they won they wouldn't have been that obvious about it. and that pic was right after the race finished. They didn't look like they'd been racing to me.

They're familiar enough with the whole reality show thing, I can't imagine they'd do something to risk a breech of their non-disclosure disagreements.

Can you tell us more about this? Or feel free to PM me if you like!

In view of the sullen face of Rachel in the finale of S20, this time I guess Brenchel have a great chance to win.

They're going to Vegas? If only I was there THIS week and not next.

I seriously doubt Rachel and Brendon would be so stupid as to violate their non-disclosure agreement. If any family member signed such an agreement, Rachel and Brendon could discuss certain things with them without violating that agreement but I suspect the results isn't among them. (If I ever got to see the current agreements -- next to impossible by the way -- I could tell what's covered one way or the other but I don't ever expect to be so lucky)
I wouldn't take the expression of Racers in those tweeted photos as evidence of anything. Unless you were there and took the photo you have no context and it's just rash speculation, not provable fact.

I highly doubt that Elissa knows whether or not she won the Race, She obviously knows that Rachel was on the Race but I really doubt that she knows the final result. If anything that tweet was just saying that's she proud of her.

Whether theschnauzers is a fan of Brenchel's or not doesn't change the fact that Brenchel will go down in flames if she disclosed anything about the race that violates the usual stuff. That has been the rule, always has and always will be. It's not just TAR; it's every show (game show, competitive reality, etc) that has a cash prize. Can't disclose information of a show before it airs (and people don't get paid until after their show airs).
Given theschnauzers' background, gotta agree with his assessment. And if info was disclosed, CBS won't look to that photo as proof for telling Elissa or America. OTOH, Elissa could've gotten a read on her, so that could be pretty significant. BTW, I would love to see a Brenchel win; as mentioned it would be a person winning two reality shows (as in two major reality shows), esp in case Hayden can't get it done on Survivor.
-
I agree with TS, Rachel wouldn't disclose one way or another to her sister if she won. (Or not.) She's a veteran now when it comes to reality shows. I would like for Brenchel to win but I have no clue. None of us do. We don't know the outcome of the last few places they went to or even where they were.
I was surprised that we didn't hear anything when they landed in Vegas. That place doesn't shut down at night does it? (Never been there.) :reindeer
-
Rachel and Brendon obvi won they post a pic and look wicked happy and elissa tweet Rachel saying "how 2 be the best at EVERYTHING/ 2 be the best big sister" in response to Rachel tweet about writing a book guess title. :xmas110
this season was saved by brenchal :cmas9
so long cowboys hahaha :cmas10
That doesn't mean Elissa knows? She probably just has faith in her sister thinking they won.
I'm sure Rachel told her family if she won or not lets be honest. Elissa spoiled this season of survivor when she was in the bb house she has lose liips.
I seriously doubt Rachel and Brendon would be so stupid as to violate their non-disclosure agreement. If any family member signed such an agreement, Rachel and Brendon could discuss certain things with them without violating that agreement but I suspect the results isn't among them. (If I ever got to see the current agreements -- next to impossible by the way -- I could tell what's covered one way or the other but I don't ever expect to be so lucky)
I wouldn't take the expression of Racers in those tweeted photos as evidence of anything. Unless you were there and took the photo you have no context and it's just rash speculation, not provable fact.
You obviously are not fans of brenchal and that is fine, but elissa has basically told us with her tweet that Rachel won.
You have no way of knowing one way or the other, and making an assumption like that is dangerous. I happen to go out of my way to not pick "favorites" among teams, especially when they're returning Racers. I happen to have respect for all teams that have competed on the Race, because even making it is difficult, and once the Race starts it is always a personal challenge for the Racers of the highest order.
That doesn't mean that I won't disapprove of conduct on the Race that the viewers are shown, and one of the very few teams I didn't like was from season six (Jonathan and Victoria) for reasons that are obvious to anyone who has watched that season. I will like or not like what teams do on the Race, but do not extend that opinion to whether or not I am a fan of any particular team; I like all of the teams.
So please, don't try to assume what I think or don't think, especially when I have said nothing one way or the other on the topic.
-
Totally agree with Schnauzers I have respect for pretty much all the teams its hard enough doing the race, let alone twice or three times, however because of certain things some teams aka The Cowboys and The Globetrotters have done in the course of the their two seasons thus far, makes me never want to root for them to win this. Just stating my own opinion here. I would be happy to see any other teams, but especially Brenchel :kisses, win TAR24. :xmas110

How did Peach figure out that the finish line was in Las Vegas, and how did she know the flight that the final few teams were on?

Peach knows her stuff.
And she has contacts I guess :lol:

There are people on here that have been here for about a decade doing spoiling. Some of them spent years figuring out where to look for filming permits. You can deduce a LOT from filming permits.

I've got a gut feeling that the country girls did well. They didn't become active on social media until early this morning, unlike the eliminated teams who were active on finale day.
Also Caroline posted a pic yesterday ok IG of her FT and Jet, she was in race gear and jet looked like he wasn't and FT could or could not have been in race gear. She deleted the pic though.

Since it is speculated teams ended the Race in Las Vegas for a second time, could these TAR slot machines around LV be featured this season? :lol: Credits go to some notable TAR alumni at The Mirage.

While it's fair enough to still say that picture of Caroline, FT, and Jet means nothing (aka isn't conclusive enough to say that's your Final Three), that F3 combination would actually be legit due to the fact that some of their earlier racing would have led to it. I don't think C/J made it, but if they did, it would have spoiled yet another all male F3 (seasons 1, 4, and 16 are the others I believe), and even more special, it would have been courtesy of an all female team. I think a win from those three would really be special, though the inevitable loss would hurt as well.
Pretty interesting that the spring season of a leap year-less even year has featured an all male winning team everytime since the show's start.

OR it just means that they're not as active as Brenchel, Na/Na, and YouTube. I notice that even pre race, Caroline/Jen don't really tweet that much.

Caroline is usually very active on IG (liking pics and stuff). She didn't until early this morning and still hasn't much.

Whoops! What I meant is that the Frats, Clowns, and Detectives' 4th place finishes prevented what would have been an all male F3 had they switched places with Frank/Margarita, Kelly/Jon, and Brent/Caite, respectively. I should've said that their exit prevented it yet again. I don't think an all-male F3 is great tv, by the way.
Sometimes I've gotta double-check before I post, but at least it's not Twitter, where if you don't delete fast enough, it's too late :cmaslol

In the instagram picture that Caroline uploaded with her, Jet, and Flight Time... did anyone else find it weird that FT wasn't in a Globetrotter outfit? You would think that if they Globetrotters were in the final 3 that they would try and push their brand, especially on a televised 1-2 hour finale... it makes me think that they aren't in the final 3. :cmas5

I get what you mean, but no one can be sure of how long before the photo the race actually finished. You'd think teams would change for the after party thing.
-
Peach, did you catch the teaser vid for TAR 24 All Stars? Maybe we can get some clues from it. Hoping.
-
It was just like the Unfinished Business first preview (as I expected).. there didn't seem to be any clues and hints from it. Just footage from the past.

Darn no clues in that vid once I looked again, sigh. Oh well.

Nascar/Sprint cup had award ceremonies in Vegas Friday, could be TAR snuck under the radar with the focus on the other race ?

That was the very first time that we got absolutly NOTHING in the Sightings Live thread in a finale day?

I'll get the vid up for you all soon, but I cant right this minute!!

I know that Natalia & Nadiya, Mark & Mallory & Joey & Meghan are speculated to be the first three teams out thanks to the Timeline Spoiler Summary thread, and that either Margie & Luke or Radon are the next team eliminated but does anyone have any idea of how far the other teams got? As for which team I want eliminated fourth, I hope it's Radon -- I couldn't stand Rachel in Big Brother and I didn't watch the season she & Brendon were on simply because they were on it -- and got far!

Maybe because Rachel Reilly claims she's a brilliant mad scientist according to a certain BB12 HouseGuest and Belle is paying homage to the element of radon by it. :lol:

These bizarre made up names that aren't readily apparent to the non-cool people like myself are getting kind of tedious. It's not just this one, there have been 3 or 4 that had me scratching my head for a while before I figured them out. Maybe we need a glossary or an Amazing Dictionary or something.

We need official forum nicknames for the teams. I agree with you. There have been a bunch of posts last season that I gave up on trying to figure out because I had to try to decipher the names they were using. If there were a poll on this topic, my vote would be to come up with one nickname and stick with it. The only exception would be if the teams came up with a nickname for another team that they aired. Then at least we would all know who everyone is talking about.

That was the nickname given by Reality News Online recappers back when the website was running. I prefer it to "Brenchel", so that's why I use "Radon" over "Brenchel". Sorry if that confused people.

Waaa...I missed it by LESS THAN ONE DAY! I arrived in Las Vegas around 6pm on Saturday, 12/7 and got back Monday night 12/9. Let me just say it was brutally cold. I'm from California, so less than 30 is brutally cold. Haha.
Thinking back, I did stay at the Vdara and spent some time at the Aria, the Cosmopolitan, the Bellagio, Caesar's Palace, the Mirage, and Luxor.

There's a rumor that this is the final 4:
Show content
Leo & Jamal, Dave & Connor, Brendon & Rachel and Jet & Cord
How accurate is this?
-
Rumour is not evidence...I would say we still need quite a bit more research before we can confirm anything based on what has been posted so far.
-
So now that the race has ended, and there's not much chance of any more sightings / spoilers popping up anywhere, based on the info we have I'm going to list my predictions for what I think the final results are like.
Note that this is only my prediction for how I THINK the race went, and NOT how I WANT it to go. :cmas22
11th - Natalie & Nadiya
10th - Mark & Mallory
9th - Joey & Meghan
8th - Margie & Luke
7th - Brendon & Rachel (Even with the sightings in Spain, something's telling me they were eliminated prior to this) ???
6th - John & Jessica
5th - Flight Time & Big Easy
4th - Caroline & Jennifer
3rd - Leo & Jamal
2nd - Dave & Connor
1st - Jet & Cord
The Final 3 could have went in any order but that's what I'm guessing.
So there's my predictions! :cmas23

mc, Maybe there is wrong. Jessica & John are actually booted 7th in Roma. Dave & Connor hasn't spotted in Seville, but the old man itself is a production crew, and Brendon wearing Brendon's jacket on interview confessional in Seville Pit Stop.

Am I right in saying though that only Jet & Cord, Leo & Jamal, and Branchel were spotted in Seville?
Which means the country singers and the globetrotters wern't spotted either so any of them could have made in to Seville, and just not been seen. :cmas27

This is a WORKING thread to figure out the spoilers...NOT a prediction thread... so no more of THAT please!! :res:
So now that the race has ended, and there's not much chance of any more sightings / spoilers popping up anywhere,
Whoa!! This is actually where the REAL work starts.... and where RFF shines.
REAL detective work...combing thru blogs, pics, FB...searching goes on!!
Tweets changed spoiling...it is like instant gratification, loads of fun while it lasts, but certainly not the only way to find spoilers.
Just because the live tweets are gone, does not mean that the spoilers are not out there...and we need everyone helping to search!
Do you want to sit back and do nothing and wait for the tweet fairy to drop spoilers in your lap? Or do you want the fun of digging around and seeing what can be found? The thrill of discovery is what makes this so much pure fun...at least for me and the RFF team!
SO stick around...more spoilers will be discovered, and we need everyone helping to find them!!
Really...the FUN is not over...it is just beginning!! :hearts:

In my defence though, this is my first season I've followed so I just assumed once we got no Live Sightings for the finale, that was the spoilers over and done with.
Thanks for pointing that out Peach, wont happen again. :cmas22 :cmas17

OK this is bad evidence but both Leo and Jamal tweeted something interesting when a fan tweeted that she wanted them to win.
First I thought that it meant that they won S24 but wouldnt the producers ask they guys to delete it if they were the winners.
The tweets are:
Jamal:
@Arrafimaulana @LeoTemory A lot of people were sad when we got out but sometimes things happen for a reason. Indonesia was really beautiful
Leo:
@rayyy5611 @JamalZadran thanks doll! it means so much to us to have such great support all around the world, we did win in more ways than 1!
OK so im basically saying that they either win or didnt win :P

OK so im basically saying that they either win or didnt win :P
I think maybe they just meant it as in, we won more ways than 1 because they got a 2nd chance?
But good find, it def helps.
They actually may have won, but I'm only guessing :cmas5

In my defence though, this is my first season I've followed so I just assumed once we got no Live Sightings for the finale, that was the spoilers over and done with.
Thanks for pointing that out Peach, wont happen again. :cmas22 :cmas17
Lots of people think that...but no!! People travel, don't have Internet, tell their stories later... Pics turn up in crazy places...permits are found.
For many of us, the search is just as much fun as the live stuff...so join in!! DIG!! :yess:

I do feel like an Idiot now! :cmaslol

Welcome to the jungle. Things do get pretty frenetic while the race is filming. Now that it is over, everyone can take a breath and start doing the tedious work of searching the web for more info. As you will find if you stick around, predictions are a dime a dozen and do not help solve a lot of questions/problems we now have. Just hard work solves problems.
If you want to see some completed races, at the bottom of the home page is the RFF Archieves forum. There are a lot of TAR boards down there. Try reading/looking at them to sort of learn the process that is used here. Seems to me that pre-TAR15 races were basically Twitter free. Anyway I am glad you are here.
-
Before Twitter and before that, Facebook, all we usually had for sources were bloggers who wrote about what they had seen or interacted as to TAR. Posts were also made to various forums that could be found using search engines. Infrequently there were be media reports often in languages other than English.
This is where we had the raw material to assemble spoilers once it was possible to track Race filming in real time. In addition, use was also made of techniques and sources that were developed in the early seasons to reconstruct the actual legs after broadcast of episodes in early seasons.
Don't become totally dependent on Twitter and Facebook and Instangram. They're just tools and not the end all and be all of Race tracking.
-
I don't know why but i think that c/j really get in the final three :cmas51 Before the race ends i didn't believe they could get in. But now I want to believe they get in because i hate a finale with three male teams, and we are not 100% sure of the 5 teams wo were running in seville. But it's just my prediction. :cmas9.

not a live sighting just a blog ...... Sky high (http://blog.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/thelongroadhome/1/1385105899/tpod.html#_) Malaysia
Friday, November 22, 2013 , some photos there of 3 teams at the Sky Bar, old news I guess :cmas27 .
In other news I'm noticing that Candi Lee found these photos for Leg 4 and we know that Brenchel likely came last on this leg so we could possibly assume that Dave & Connor and Margie & Luke place towards the back of the pack on this leg as well.

My source tells me that they heard that a team that had a blonde was in the f3. that means either it was c/j or j/j. dont know where they ended up after that though.

If it was a blonde I'd say it would be C/J because Jessica is more of a brunette.

I'm reasonably neutral to John & Jessica. They weren't too bad in their first season just John got too cocky with the express pass.

Again, this is a spoiler discussion thread. Not for who you like/don't like. That can go in the racers thread or bitch/moan/squeal, okay?

Could the missing legs between Rome and Seville have been a Keep-on-racing/Zero-hour-pitstop....but with a U-Turn attached to the 2nd leg? [We've had one of these on TAR 23.] Plus, a KOR/ZHP hasn't been confirmed so far this season and TAR has liked to use them in recent seasons.
As for the possible night leg in Vegas, the weather might account for no good sightings. I don't think tourists are gonna be out on The Strip for long in 35-degree temps lol....especially on a Friday night.
Switzerland & England are missing legs on back end.
:cmaslol

Where did that come from? I thought the missing legs were, well, still missing. I know Paris, France was oh-so mysteriously confirmed by Peach, I think. So Switzerland and England again? Also in the Timeline thread, why was Jet & Cord and Brendon & Rachel removed from the 'Safe' category in the Rome legs?

I forgot to add, while I was in Vegas the weekend of 12/7-9, the Wrangler Rodeo Finals was going on. Maybe there was some sort of rodeo-related task going on? I would imagine any sort of task would be indoors, since the temps were running in the 20s overnight.

I have also heard that Brendon and rachel in the final 3. The other final 3 team is a MM team (not the trotters). so it's either dave/connor or the afghanimals.
-
Since there were no airport, outdoor, or indoor photo sightings of race evidence or the final 3 teams, could they have arrived in Las Vegas and then took a charter to a more rural area of Nevada such as Lake Mead, ghost towns, or even the possible Arizona?
Also, we have never had a repeated final city location before starting from TAR12:
TAR12-23: Anchorage, Portland, Maui, Las Vegas (now speculated), San Francisco, Los Angeles, Miami, Atlanta, Honolulu, NYC, Washington D.C., Juneau
-
New York has been the final city 3 times- TAR1 and 2 recently-??22 (flags at UN was final challange) and ??16- taxi problem from JFK where one cab had Easy pass and other didn't. Race went to lower Manhattan then ended in lower Westchester which is just above NYC
-
TAR10 and TAR21.

This. Their sob story annoys me more than Rachel's over dramatics do, and that's a lot.

Ugh I really hope it's the afghanimals in the final 3 rather than Rachel. Can't stand her.
-
To be honest, I think after Margie & Luke got eliminated, there was an HoO of sorts in Sri Lanka 2. Because there is no way that that giant time span would allow Brenchel to catch up and CaroJen to fall to last.

Me too! Rachel drove me up the wall in Big Brother! But Miss Cleo could be wrong. Let us Rachel haters hope she's wrong and that the Afghanimals knocked her & Brendon out of the Final 3!

We do NOT know when Margie and Luke were eliminated. We all need to remember that NOT seen does NOT always mean NOT there. We need much more info before making assumptions. :tup:

gamerfan09, please look at the way you referenced Margie-Luke; you said "when" and "there was" as to an HOO, both of which presupposes that what you are saying are facts, and does not indicate in any way that it was speculation (which might be shown by the words "if" and "there may have been.")
Seriously folks, if you don't use the appropriate word signals to show your statements are speculation and not facts, others are going to read what you are saying as being a fact. Same issue when stating a belief as a fact. It may be a fact that you believe something happened at some point to a team or teams during filming; that is not the same as a statement being established as a fact by vetted independent sources, or properly vetted photographs and video that connects the image to a particular place on a particular date.
It's very frustrating for some of us who are trying to sort out what is established fact, from speculation or belief or wishful thinking. Please take some care in how you are expressing your thoughts in this context. It does cause confusion and can easily mislead others who may miss the nuances that are present in these sorts of discussion.

idk about people here, what's the point of this speculation thread if we are not allowed to make assumptions
that's the whole thing about speculation, making an assumption without absolute prove.
if we do have the prove than it called "analysis" not "speculation"
if people are not allowed to speculate without absolute proof than change the thread name to: "Spoiler analysis"
besides all of these spoilers come from Miss Cleo on Sucks.
just because it was not posted in here, does not mean it's not true. if this statement make sense " We all need to remember that NOT seen does NOT always mean NOT there."
my statement is also make sense

I think when we look at spoilers that come from others, at least this early on, we should take them with a grain of salt. We can make assumptions without any real proof on this thread, but we shouldn't treat the assumptions as actual fact. It's just speculation, that's all. So Miss Cleo can say that Margie & Luke came in 8th while Brendon & Rachel is part of the Final 3 and we can speculate on it all we want (and I'd hate it if Brenchel really was part of the Final 3), but we should take what she says with a grain of salt until her claims are supported by multiple other sources.
-
But Brenchel was spotted IN SPAIN IN THE FINAL FIVE.
Also, during the Italy live RB sightings, all teams but Brenchel and Margie & Luke were seen, and since Brenchel's in the F5, this means Margie & Luke are 8th. Just saying.
-
Again, the purpose of this thread is to speculate, but, and it is a very important but, it is inaccurate and unfair to others to state as an established fact something that is speculation.
I personally do not consider Miss Cleo's statements to be established fact, and it is unfair and inaccurate to say that those statements are such. If A and B, therefore C is logical reasoning, but that alone does not make statement C a fact, just a logical inference from stated hypothetical assumptions, none of which may necessarily be established facts.
It is not an issue of expressing your opinion, it is an issue of how those opinions are presented.
-
I understand. It is best to say maybe or even probably to things not supported by pictures.
Yes this is for speculation, word it like speculation not like fact.
-
Exactly Belle, thank you.
This IS a speculation thread. But if you ARE speculating, you still need to say so CLEARLY.
Re-read what theschnauzers says please, he has it 100%.
gamerfan09, please look at the way you referenced Margie-Luke; you said "when" and "there was" as to an HOO, both of which presupposes that what you are saying are facts, and does not indicate in any way that it was speculation (which might be shown by the words "if" and "there may have been.")
This is RFF, not Sucks, jet...so we do things our way here. Regardless of whose spoilers you are quoting, HERE you must be VERY clear on what you are stating. When you are speculating, say so. If you can prove it, show us how. And remember that sourced spoilers are not considered facts without backup.
Sourced spoilers can be accurate. They can also be and are sometimes wrong. They are basically a spoiler that someone else told you. Their reliability depends on where the info is coming from. Sources can be right, or can be wrong, or just can be misinterpreted. We have all had that happen, here at RFF also. Recently, you have only to look at how many changes were made in Cleo's cast list for 24 and even the latest bootlist spoilers to realize that mistakes can be made, info can change.
So what sets RFF apart is that whenever possible, we do not rely ONLY on "sourced info" but try to confirm it by other means. Sourced info can certainly be used for guidance, but it is not "proven". Unless and until there is clearcut (preferably photographic) or other first hand corroborative evidence (permits, eye witness accounts etc), any "sourced" info is considered speculative only. No matter who is saying it. So whether the current Sucks bootlist eventually turns out to be right or not, it is for now, at RFF anyway, "speculation" and not fact.
Hope that helps.

Everything in Blue is speculation. Spec's do not necessarily make a Red fact. Could be, could not be. We need more evidence.

:welcome: to RFF , Zeebra!
The clarification is that what someone thinks is not necessarily fact. Without supporting evidence it is important to understand that it remains speculation. We know that the Caroline and Jennifer have ONE speedbump, thanks to a photo. That is fact. The rest is speculation.
And please understand that SPECULATION is wonderful!! It is how we put ALL the info thru the wringer, sort it all out, and come to some educated conclusions. The way someone presents something here often opens my own eyes to new possibilities that perhaps I hadn't thought of. I LOVE everyone of your thoughts and ideas! Speculation is HOW we get to where we are going, it is not a bad word. The more speculaton the better!! All we are saying is to be very clear about what is fact and what is not....

There was an article from Spain saying, that there was five teams racing.
And how do you that was correct? Do they have their facts straight?? Question EVERYTHING. There have been multiple articles saying something that was not true, including occasionally CBS's own!!

that makes sense BUT how do we know that the bottom 2 were brenchel and Margie& Luke they more likley would be country cause they earned a speedbump they couldn't have had flight troubles cause they were staying in Sri Lanka and Sri Lanka is a small country ( in landmass) soon bottom 3 brenchel cuntry Margie and Luke?

As far as TAR is concerned there have been occasions where a local newspaper or broadcaster has aired or published something at the time of filming, usually in a local language, and searching using English words would not bring it up in the search results.
In fact one of the earliest if not the earliest filming spoiler was a Dutch newspaper reporting on TAR 4 filming a detour task involving cheese wheels in a public location near Amsterdam, with photographs. We didn't become aware of it at the time only because the article was written in Dutch, although it was discovered when the episode preview aired in the US.
It's the sort of thing that makes you wish for highly intelligent searchbots. :)

what if you don't have twitter or face book
You can search for places like flickr for photographs from vacationers or search for blogs with comments about the race or racers. You aren't limited to Facebook or Twitter. :reindeer

But Brenchel was spotted IN SPAIN IN THE FINAL FIVE.
Also, during the Italy live RB sightings, all teams but Brenchel and Margie & Luke were seen, and since Brenchel's in the F5, this means Margie & Luke are 8th. Just saying.
How do you KNOW Seville is final 5? How do you know ALL teams were seen...how do you know how many were actually starting in Rome?? How do you know Brenchel remains in the Final 5...were they seen later? There is SO much we are unsure of...and that's where the fun is.
Everything in Blue is speculation. Spec's do not necessarily make a Red fact. Could be, could not be. We need more evidence.
ok that makes more sense :cmas27. Thx btw are there any ideas on the 2 missing legs I think that it will go Germany-morocco- Spain / Italy-morocco-Spain / Tunisia-morocco-Spain what does every one else think? Ok now I think it's safe to say that rff is one of the only ( if not only) tar spoiler sites that isn't speculating leg 8 to be Rome if that's true I'm betting leg 9'is Seville ?

What if the Chippendales are one of the clue handlers on the final leg in Vegas? Like Kevin & Drew who appeared on Season 8... :cmas19

hey guys so I saw some thing on cbs.com in the amazing race section and they had interviews ther with the final four and responding to a question Leo & Jamal said they had a Vegas trip in the works I don't know if they mean with tar or not but if there in the final three.....?

I'm not going to say here what I think it means, in terms of what I might place a bet on if someone were to ask me how much I bet on what I thought. However, I read that interview and I think they were referring to their bond with Ally & Ashley, how they keep in touch, and how they'll probably meet up in Sin City at some point. The Ice Queens and Leo & Jamal are rather close to Las Vegas, so the two teams meeting there at any point shouldn't take a lot of work.
I hardly think it has anything to do with the race being ending in Vegas, but I could be wrong. An interview that takes place after the finale aired would not have any bearing on TAR24, since they would have already been in Vegas. In addition, an interview that takes place after a Philimination also would not have any connection to Sin City for Season 24, as that would have been in the summer of this year, prior to any plans known to the Afganimals of the end city.

All the teams of TAR 24, including Leo and Jamal, would have been in Las Vegas at the finish line. I don't see that Leo and Jamal's presence means anything at all except that they competed in TAR 24. It could very easily just mean they are planning to make the roughly 200 mile drive from Los Angeles (where they live) to Las Vegas for a vacation or an appearance opportunity.

well if it wasn't,t with tar and they were in the finale they would have an advantage

Does anyone have a guess on where they went in leg 9? If both legs 7 & 8 are in Rome and 10 is in Seville, where would be a feasible place they could go where no one could see them to take pictures of them? I'm guessing West Africa or Malta, but I wouldn't bet on it. Anyone else think anything of it?
-
I doubt Leo & Jamal would be that careless to be leaving clues about the next season's finale. They seem to be the type that wants to be in the limelight as much as possible, so to be blacklisted would be a nightmare for them.

We'll leg 8 isn't confirmed to be Rome yet but, if it is leg 9 will probably be in either morocco or Seville cause there were no air port sightings. And morocco is so close to Spain they could have at ken a ferry and bus :cmas19 :cmas19

1) BvM seems to have a penchant in the even numbered races for highlighting the Christmas season in Central Europe. Starting with TAR14,WRP started filming the race in Nov/Sec for even numbered races.
22 -- Alps Interlaken, Suisse and Berlin
20 -- Alps Torino and Fussen
18 -- Alps Vienna to Salzburg to Zermatt
16 -- Hamburg and Champagne District, France
14 -- Alps Locano and Interlaken, Suisse
12 -- Netherlands, Lithuania, Croatia, and Italy (but this was filmed in summer, not in the Nov/Dec timeframe)
2) BvM also likes to put teams on trains and self drive when in Central Europe. It seems we usually get about a 50% success rate on spotting teams on trains in Europe.
So here is my analysis and speculation.........
Leg 7 is Rome
Leg 8/9 Train from Rome to the Alps (ether Suisse, Bavaria or Austria). It is easy to get to either western or central Suisse or western Austria from Rome. Possible self driving in these legs.
Leg 10 is Seville, Espana
Leg 11 Since they flew from London to the end city (Las Vegas), they probably did this leg in the UK somewhere.
Leg 12 Las Vegas

Dr. Rox, what about Morocco? Its getting close to Spain and shares the ferry link between Tangier, Morocco to Algeciras, Spain. Algeciras is few kilometers away southeast of Seville.

TAR has been on that ferry in TAR 3, IIRC, and it would be awkward with their filming schedule to have teams in Rome, travel to Tangier for one leg, and then take a ferry to Spain. I'm not sure that is the way production would do it now except as a substitute leg. The pattern in the past ten seasons or so is to plant legs along the way back to the US.
I would not assume that the 11th leg was in the UK (as it was in season 22, btw) simply because the teams flew to LV from London; London could have been the connection from many places in western Europe outside the UK. I'm not saying that anywhere in the UK isn't possible, just that we cannot limit locales to the UK just because teams flew out from London. (As far as it goes, Wales is overdue for a leg now that recent seasons have been to both Northern Ireland and Scotland and no task has ever been filmed in Wales, especially Cardiff, which as some of us know from Torchwood is a beautiful place, and Doctor Who, which marked its 50th anniversary last month, is filmed there and there's both the BBC studio complex and a new Doctor Who Experience meseum there. That would be an interesting locale if TPTB paid attention to the worldwide influence of that show, as they did with Sherlock Holmes in a couple of tasks in London in an earlier TAR season.

If only TPTB would use other great shows for inspiration for Tasks. Especially in Japan.

Do you guys think that the boot list that's been going around here is accurate? I chose to not view it yet, but what I gathered is
Show content
Dave & Connor won, while Caroline & Jennifer and Brendon & Rachel/Leo & Jamal are in the Final 3.
I personally hope this is what happened, but what about you guys?
-
Do we even know that Seville is leg 10? Could it be the leg 9 with two legs in between it and the finale? Also, I thought I saw somewhere on these boards that there was a leg in Paris, is this true?
-
In the live sightings thread, a newspaper in Seville said there were 5 teams racing in the 10th episode. How they come up with the 10th as being the episode number we do not know. We can tell the afghanimals are there. We also see the cowboys and brenchel there, all in the live sightings thread.
-
It is possible to have 5 teams in leg 10, so long as it is an elimination point, and then there would be 4 teams in leg 11, which is usually the final elimination point in a 12 leg race.
I wouldn't vouch for any boot list at this point because the uncertainty and lack of collaborating evidence. The best I thing we can hope for is a probability, but I doubt we're that far along yet with the general lack of information.

Didn't you people also think that Paris was the eleventh leg?
So....
-
So can we assume Cowboys, Afghanimals, Country, Brenchel and Father/Son are the F5 per the live sightings?
-
WinTar, I don't think we can make such an assumption on the current information available. At best, you could offer it as a hypothesis, but that alone is not proof and shouldn't be used as a fact.
We need to find more data, along the lines several of us have been pointing out, to help evaluation all possible explanations, and not just that one.
-
So can we assume Cowboys, Afghanimals, Country, Brenchel and Father/Son are the F5 per the live sightings?
You can assume they were NOT on the sequester flight. :tup:

Now that we know that teams 4, 5 and 6 tagged along for the final legs rather than heading to sequester, some of the sightings of teams hanging around at the pit stop may not be as meaningful as we've been thinking.

Team #6 was at sequester. Teams #4 and #5 have continued following production for most races, not just this one.
-

I think we're lucky enough with Brenchel not getting eliminated in 8th. Now I tend to believe they were decoying in Seville... :/

Or eliminated there. Although I wish they were out earlier, if Brendon & Rachel get eliminated before the finals I'll take it.

I see Twinnies, Youtube, Margie/Luke, Jess/John and globetrotters. With Mark/Mallory that's 6 elim'd teams :~)

-
Based on the fact that those six teams have been spotted flying from Thailand to Seoul, we can assume that Sequesterville was in Thailand.
Also, knowing that Twinnies, M/M, and Youtube were eliminated before Leg 5, an assuming that Margie & Luke were eliminated in Sri Lanka, and that the Globetrotters were at the Pit Stop with the Afghanimals, we can assume that the John & Jessica were eliminated in 7th in Rome, meaning that the Globetrotters were eliminated in 6th somewhere between Rome and Seville.

Really think it is The Philippines that got cancelled. China Leg 2 seemed like a last minute addition too. Imagine if 2 Philippines legs were cancelled in the last minute. :cmas4
-
Now I really really want to know which location was replaced by KL!
-
To me, it looks like ALMOST ALL the Legs were replacements. :lol3:
China (2x), Italy, and Spain... did they seriously pretend to run out of all-stars worthy destinations like Zanzibar, Tanzania and Argentina? This season's route looks rather plain.
-
I'll be rather disappointed if the rumours of Switzerland as Legs 8 and 9 turn out to be true. I like Switzerland but it is becoming one of those over-used countries that just feels the same each time it is visited. It sort of feels to me like the route of the season involves going to places rarely visited or cities in Countries that have never been visited and Switzerland seems out of place.
Also with the Italy leg, Would it be possible for a task to be in Vatican City? A Fast Forward or just a Active Route Info? There was an unused Fast Forward in Vatican City in Season 1.

In the case of Margie and Luke, what could they have done? "If" my hypothesis is true, they could have gotten on the standby list at the airport for the flight everyone else was on and probably got on the flight when the travel agency returned the 4 unbooked seats to the airline. That would have taken guts. They would have had to pass up those earlier flights to Singapore. In race mode with adrenaline flowing, patience is not likely possibility.
They did, Dr Rox.
Malaysian Airlines finally beckoned for Margie and Luke. They were sent to the airline office to speak to the "boss," who got into a tiff with Petr over him filming them in the office. Barred outside the room (but with the airline lady not knowing they had hidden microphones), Petr shot the scene from behind the glass window and hiding behind some potted plants. Jerry didn't have quite as much work. He put on his headphones and waited outside the office, listening to their every word.
Half an hour ensued. The result: nothing.
-
They did, Dr Rox.
Okay, my bad. I guess I have the time frame messed up in my head. I thought M/L had already left for Singapore before the direct flight was ready to board. Now I realize that I don't even really kno0w just how or when M/L flew to Sri Lanka. Did they wait till the morning direct flight to Sri Lanka. I can imagine the office discussion was trying to get the seats at the travel agency released to M/L at the airport. There must have been other people already on the standby list ahead of M/L that got those seats. I wonder how far down the list M/L actually were.
Thx Jobby
-
No worries! Basically, the only thing Neobie could have done was to just convince them to get onto the first flight to Singapore and they will perhaps, be able to catch the flight that Brendon and Rachel were on. (The Jetstar? flight that they were on standby on and held the tickets for the next 15 mins) But then again, there was a really tight connection and really, anything could have happened. But usually, there is hardly a delay for Jetstar/AirAsia flights on the SG-KL route. :(
But Margie didn't want to fly to Singapore without any confirmed flight to Colombo. :(
-
I think the order we tried was:
MH 179 from Kuala Lumpur to Colombo: 2305-2359 (delayed to 0029-0128), full
3K 688 from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore: 2125-2225
SQ 468 from Singapore to Colombo: 2305-0015, full
3K 688 from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore: 2125-2225
EK 349 from Singapore to Colombo: 0030-0140, couldn't book tickets online before 3K flight closed
AK 1823 from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore: 2205-2305, couldn't get to other terminal in time
EK 349 from Singapore to Colombo: 0030-0140
MH 609 from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore: 2310-0005
EK 349 from Singapore to Colombo: 0030-0140, too tight a connection
MH 180 from Kuala Lumpur to Chennai: 2215-2330, full
9W 252 from Chennai to Colombo: 0055-0210
UL 319 from Kuala Lumpur to Colombo: 0850-0945, full
Final decision (?)
D7 180 from Kuala Lumpur to Colombo: 0920-1010 (delayed to 1047-1134)

I read somewhere that the unused Fast Forward was finding the "keys to heaven" (referring to the St. Peter statue holding keys) and it sounds similar to the first ever FF so I doubt it will be featured as the same concept, perhaps a route info, but definitely not a FF.
As for Switzerland rumors, I have a feeling Corsica will be revisited or even Sardinia. Civitavecchia owns a ferry terminal near Rome and there was barely any information received between the Rome and Seville Legs.

Considerably, there was a rumor on planned two Australian legs (Melbourne was to be Leg 2 and Ballarat was to be Leg 3) were to be on the route and got cancelled. China 2 and Malaysia 1 (Sabah) were the replacements of the Australian legs by a last minute. Last two seasons have double legs in first destination countries started from the U.S. (French Polynesia and Chile).
KL is not a replacement leg, that was BvM's idea. Feel free that KL was the replacement for the planned Philippine leg because it was cancelled due to devastated earthquake hit in the central part of the country and typhoon in that same region, see Peach's latest post below.
I already read this at Television Without Pity on TAR24 Spoilers thread by SnideAsides.
-
I had heard the rumour of Melbourne as well but didn't hear about Ballarat. That would of been interesting.

This is an interesting mix of fact and speculation. :lol:
Not sure where Ballarat is coming from? It wasn't here nor TWoP as far as I know.
The TWoP info originated here. Melbourne was posted here briefly as a leg, the info appeared reliable. Info on future legs is protected here as far as possible...but the info was out there for awhile. Despite what seemed reliable info, the leg did not happen. SO...the question is did the pre-spoiling cause the leg to be scrapped? Or were the Malaysian legs last minute substitutes for planned Philippines legs cancelled due to the typhoon? We may never know.
But to the best of our knowledge...BOTH Malaysian legs were last minute substitutions.
-
I'm wondering what would of caused both Australia legs to be canned? Nothing really comes to mind in Australia recently.
-
Could the plan have been Philippines to Australia to Sri Lanka? Cancelling the Philippines because of the typhoon could have caused a problem getting in and out of Australia on time. I thought they were in a bit of a rush getting in and out of Malaysia...

Here's my crazy thought...
Since Guangzhou, China is particularly a weird first destination to reveal in the first Leg (especially because Shanghai was visited three seasons ago in the premiere), I think Manila or Quezon City would have been the router's original plan, but due to the typhoon still sparking political and environmental controversy, TAR didn't want to deal with the same FOX crap that stunned the nation during TAR22's visit to Hanoi.
For the Malaysia connections, it might be due to... you guessed it, BUDGET! :whoop: Taking a high-speed or fuel-powered train to Sabah, Malaysia from Guangzhou is much cheaper than purchasing 20 or 22 economy-class tickets to Melbourne. I wish TAR had a bake sale fundraiser to make a shocking route like TAR10 (Madagascar to Finland to Ukraine) or TAR7 (Turkey to England).

HOW IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU TAKE A TRAIN TO MALAYSIA THERES LOADS OF MILES DISTANCE NOT TO MENTION WATER?
-
Although I think Rachel meant the controversy that would arise from the American public for visiting the Philippines while parts of it are still reeling from the disaster (like how people read too much into the "propaganda dance" in Hanoi etc), not that the race route would be logistically affected itself.
And hovercraft trains aside, they did save a ton of money by taking AirAsia to Sabah and AirAsia again to Kuala Lumpur instead of flying almost everyone to Australia on a full-fledged carrier...

Discussion on Hanoi moved to "Previous Seasons" in the Discussion thread.

You know, I wonder what happened to the US$1 million they saved when Abbie & Ryan were eliminated in Season 21, surely they didn't spend it all up on TAR 22 and 23?

That money was to be the proceeds of an event insurance policy that could be paid out if the event happened. It was never actual cash sitting around in a bank vault waiting to be paid out. All production did was pay the premium for the coverage.

If finale is in Vegas, why there no sighting? maybe because hot air? Or Spoiler hunter is not there? Usually finish mat is located in no one can see without permission area. Or go to another area??? :cmas5 :cmas11 :cmas19
-
Roif, if you read this thread and the live sightings thread, then you would know that this finale was at night and the weather was winter cold (winter weather warnings were ongoing that night in the region around Las Vegas). That means it is much more difficult for bystanders to see things going on and this, post anything on Twitter or Facebook; and harder to have a read where the final mat was.

I'd assume that we will have our second ever in doors finish seeing as it's a night leg finale.

:whoop: Unless it is rainy, dangerously windy, or blizzarding, I really don't see the point of setting up a Finish Line indoors.

Knowing it's Vegas, the only places for a Finish Line would be inside or outside the city because of the amount of people.

So people won't see them racing and spoil the results. That's likely why they did it in New York City a couple of seasons back.
It still surprises me that we had no sightings at all, unless the information that's floating around about the finish order is from a sighting report.
-
I'm thinking the finish line will be at one of the major Hotels on the Strip. I'm thinking either The Mirage, Mandalay Bay, Monte Carlo or Caesars Palace.

Finish Line in a conference room? Yeah, that sounds amazingly beautiful. :funny:
Or... since Las Vegas is known for their lush golf courses, maybe we'll have another TAR14 and finish at a golf course. Hosting the "big mat" at a MAJOR hotel could spill the beans easily. That's why in TAR15, the Finish Line was at a private property.
-
You know what, I have a gut and heart feeling that a golf course is the Finish Line median. Googled it and found the Golf Digest website giving me the gold mine of ALL 52 courses (not just the top 25) within the Las Vegas area, map included.
:yess:
http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-courses/2011-11/25-top-courses-in-las-vegas
Overlooking a scenic setting near the end of the episode, I'd say the best bets of the location of the "big mat" are the Paiute Golf Resort... Arroyo Golf Club... and Shadow Creek.

True :funny: A golf course sounds cool!

We have had golf course finishes before, they work well. But in the dark at night? Not so sure how that would play out.

Perhaps in like the club room or close to the club room for best lighting.

I'd suspect the golf course managers temporarily setting up pagoda garden lighting fixtures from Home Depot or something for teams to follow.

Okay, let's start thinking from the scratch pad. :wine:
THINGS WE SPEC. OR KNOW ABOUT LEG 12:
- Las Vegas is confirmed (in radio signal distances) :tup:
- ZERO live sightings and/or blurbs of final 3 :o
- Night Leg (this is crucial since most POI's start closing for the day)
- F3 arrived in LV at a near 7:00 P.M.
- Finish Line speculated to be at a golf course
Okay, let's think night. Most visitors are likely to be eating dinner, playing at a casino, or watching Jaymes & James during this time so those Strip hotels are likely to be out of the question. I think immediately after touching down, teams had to take a taxi to Red Rock Canyon to find a clue box before the roads turn pitch black. Returning back into the city, teams may have had to find a hotel & casino, but not on the Strip so to avoid publicity. What I think is the Tropicana was visited. It remains one of the oldest hotels in Las Vegas
-
What about Hoover Dam as a finish line? I have been there last September, at night, and I was the only one. So it's a perfect spot to hide when you do not wanna be seen. Plus illuminated Hoover Dam looks great at night.
I think the final leg would be like: 1. Arrival to LAS, 2. Roadblock/Detour @ Las Vegas or (transfer by helicopter to) Boulder City, 3. Transfer to Hoover Dam area, 4. Final task (bungee jumping from Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge would be great), 5. Finish Line at Hoover Dam. Go, go, go!!!

AFAIK, Joey & Meghan and Brenchel started tweeting after the Race and they were in the Mirage. It might have been either our Finish Line or Final Sequester.

Has been any locations that is used in past seasons, and then used again in other seasons, but in same property?

??? The Mirage Casino & Resort is used at a task in Cirque du Soleil Love theatre, in season 15.
Finish Line? Golf course is closed in what time? Possibly closed. Or no. At that time the climate is mild cold and its . It unlikely that finish line is in outdoors, since the weather is too hot humid and mild cold.
The finish line is either in hotel casino conference room or a secret room or a unused room or a suite or the Axis at Planet Hollywood (formerly PH Live, Ph Theatres for the Performing Arts, Theatre for the Performing Arts, Aladdin Theatre for the Performing Arts)??? I dont know.

Who knows but I'm just saying, that the exact NIGHT we had our finale was when racers started tweeting and their tweet location (Brenchel,NaNa, YouTube) is all the Mirage. That just can't be a coincidence.

-
There is also Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It has lights and is, sort of, out of the way...
-
I like the thought of Hoover Dam. Red Rock Canyon too.
-
The only problem I see with the Hoover Dam is WHERE would the Finish Line Mat be? Could they have it on the top of the Dam, even if it's night? I think we'll see another indoors Finish Line Mat.
-
I like the thought of Hoover Dam. Red Rock Canyon too.
Red Rock Canyon can be scratched off. Way too dangerous for taxis to drive at night due to unlit roads.
-
RFFers, I think I found a really possible and scenic location for the Finish Line.
Paiute Golf Resort - Wolf Course - Hole 15
http://www.lasvegasgolf.com/departments/coursereviews/las-vegas-paiute-golf-resort-wolf-course-11171.htm
There is a golfing green that resembles an island with a beautiful view of a mountain behind. Teams could ride bicycles to the location by following a lighted trail... or yellow rocks. :funny: Even though everyone has really good predictions, I really think Paiute could be the location we're looking for.
-
I love your enthusiasm...but we have no evidence for...or against...a golf course location. But keep the spec a-coming!!
Do remember it was quite cold that night...
-
What about the Palms Resort (the Real World suite) or the only other possibility that has stuck in my mind is the Chippendales Revue Theatre at the Rio?
Both are in the same area just off I-15 across the interstate from some of the other casino resorts in Vegas.

They could. There's a small sculpture garden area on the Nevada side of the Dam. Problem is that there's a public road on top of the dam, and a few scenic overlook areas, and is in general a public enough place that something would have probably leaked out if the finish line was outdoors there.
They could probably get permits to finish indoor there in the turbine room balcony that Bureau of Reclamation uses for public tours (there's a car commercial that filmed from there not too long ago). It's a speed elevator to get there, and could actually make for a pretty dramatic finish as the elevator opens, the first team sprints onto the balcony and....

The Hoover Dam was used in a two-part episode of Doctor Who during Matt Smith's second season, which also featured the desert in Utah, and exterior scenes in Washington DC. And they managed that outdoor scene in the daytime without any leaks during filming. The other thing is that there is a new bridge for highway traffic over the Colorado River just south of the Dam.
-
I wasn't aware of the new bridge over the Colorado river below the dam, but that would make it much less likely that filming on the dam would be noticed. I drove over the dam several times in the past and while it was interesting, it was an enormous bottleneck getting into Las Vegas from the south. Hairpin curves on both sides of the dam, slow trucks trying to get around the curves, 1 lane each direction over the top of the dam with a roughly 30 mph (50 kph) speed limit. I have no doubt that the only traffic over the dam these days would be tourists and I doubt many would be there after dark on a cold near freezing evening. The vast bulk of the traffic would be over the new bridge which would probably save 10-15 minutes getting into Las Vegas.
Looking at the new bridge on Google Earth is interesting. It casts an enormous shadow into the canyon below. It looks like the new bridge is still one lane in each direction, but I expect the speed limit is much higher.
-
Pure speculation, but here are some possible Las Vegas area locations that may have been visited (taking in the fact that no sightings have been come across and it was near night).

To be honest, what makes you think they would REALLY go to a school? I see nothing important about a Trapeze School in Vegas. And I don't think we should be randomly throwing in places from a website named lasvegas.com just my 2 cents :)
-
Since there are no sightings, is it possible that the race did another tar 23 type finale and held most if not all of the leg in the rural areas near the city?

Trapeze act.... This was pretty close if I remember correctly. TAR 15 finale
At the Mirage's Love theater, one team member was harnessed in a bungee cord and
launched by his or her teammate in an attempt to retrieve a bouquet of flowers
dangling in the air. Once the entire bouquet was obtained, they had to hand it
to an actress acting as a flower girl to receive their next clue.
And using a travel page website is a great place to get ideas for tasks, I do it all the time. :yess:
-
I love the random sites thrown in by people. that is how we find the racers sometimes. I like to research them too. I thought the night buggies was a possibility, but too hard to keep secret. The trapeze school would be awesome, lots of possibilities there. The dam is awesome too.

I agree and we did have a trapeeze finale episode task in FE in Montreal.
Oh yeah, that's right... Montreal did have a trapeze task. :groan: I was going towards an outdoors or hotel auditorium trapezing act that the people who ran the school could have set up somewhere. Nellis Dunes is still a possibility though.
-
And we did have a sort of trapeze task the last time the finale was in Vegas. I don't expect them to use the same locations or challenges as the last time.
-
More speculation of another possible location: Bootleg Canyon
This natural landscape in Boulder City could easily make a unique Finish Line or memory task location with the breathtaking, mountainous views of what the cosmetics-less state of Nevada has to offer. Or in simpler terms, "It's amazing!" :lol:
There is a zipline company called Flightlinez who relocated from the now defunct Fremont Street Experience to Bootleg Canyon. Teams could zoom down the canyon to their final task. http://www.flightlinezbootleg.com/
In addition, after finishing the task, teams could be able to ride mountain bicycles on the rugged terrain trails to the Finish Line like back in TAR4. http://www.imba.com/epics/bootleg-canyon-epic

Just remember that this is a NIGHTTIME LEG. SO prob no bicycles. :lol:

Breathtaking views in the day probably isn't as good at night :lol:

I know this is probably off topic and random (haven't been online in forever), but is it possible teams visited Andorra between Seville and Paris???

We don't believe so. Personally, I was hoping they could slide in Gibraltar, but that now seems quite unlikely as well.

TV Guide tweeted this article....
Exclusive: Brendon and Rachel "So Excited" to Return for Amazing Race All-Stars
(http://static.phx2.tvgcdn.net/MediaBin/Content/140120/News/7_sun/thumbs/140126amazing-race1_300x206.jpg)
Brenchel's back!
Big Brother's Brendon Villegas and Rachel Reilly are among the returning teams on The Amazing Race's upcoming All-Stars season, TVGuide.com can exclusively reveal. Because ain't nobody gonna come between Rachel and $1 million twice... right? "When you go on these reality shows, I go to win $1 million, not to just be on TV, so I'm just so excited to get a second shot at this," she tells TVGuide.com. "It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience and we get to do it twice."
The pair, who married in 2012, finished third on Season 20, which is as famous for eventual champs Rachel and Dave's record-breaking eight leg wins and fan favorites Bopper and Mark as it is for Brenchel's bitter feud with Vanessa and Ralph, and Rachel's patented meltdowns.
But the couple promises things will be different this time around — and you might even see a new, softer side of Brenchel. See what else they have to say about their second trip around the world and what they learned from last time.
Rachel, on your Twitter bio, you had "Retired reality star," which is no longer there. So why did you unretire?
Brendon: I don't know why she would ever write that. C'mon!
Rachel: [Laughs] I know. That is so true. I wrote it because I was like, I feel like I'm getting old and tired, but it's Amazing Race, and you can't say no when they ask you. We're just so excited that we got the honor to come back on The Amazing Race again.
Brendon: And in case you haven't figured out, my wife's a little dramatic.
Rachel: A lot dramatic!
What was your reaction when you got the call? I don't think anyone is surprised they asked you back.
Rachel: We had kind of always hoped we would be asked. Brendon and I made final three on Season 20. We thought we did a pretty good job. We weren't surprised we were asked for an All-Stars season, but we were surprised it was this soon. The last one was Season 18, so we thought it would be in another year or two. But oh, my gosh! I was like jumping up and down [when they called].
Brendon: That's what usually happens. She says yes right away and I'm like, "Let's talk about this." I'm trying to do a PhD here. But of course we both wanted to do it. It's never a matter of if we want to do it, it's if can we do it and me not getting choked out by my professors at school.
I feel like you've been working toward this PhD for 10 years.
Brendon: [Laughs] Yeah, you and I both feel like it's been 10 years.
How did you approach this season knowing it's All-Stars and everyone's been through this at least once already, some twice?
Rachel: We actually didn't know that anyone was going to be on the third time. We decided that if we're doing this again, we really need to work together. I had to say to myself that I wasn't going to take the lead all the time, which I did a lot in Season 20. ... We're partners. We want to work together really well and make sure that our team was the strongest. We had the mindset of being focused on the Race. If we have an issue, we'll deal with the issue after the leg is over.
How did that work out for you guys generally speaking?
Brendon: You'll see! Honestly, for us, we realized we're both individually strong competitors. We know we can be stronger together, but we just have to work well. We have to listen to each other and not fight when we disagree. Whatever comes our way, we have to tackle it and not have our attention diverted.
Would you say that's the biggest lesson you learned from last time?
Rachel: Absolutely. I learned two lessons last time: That and I cried a lot! [Laughs] I knew I had to bring it down. I knew I had to focus more on what I'm doing and not getting emotional because you can have one second of an emotional breakdown and it totally throws you off your game the entire leg. I knew I had to look at everything logically and be super-competitive and work really hard. Brendon and I had to work really hard as a team.
Brendon: Last time, we came in as newbies. We only had two months to wrap our brains around doing it and didn't have a lot of time to prepare. We were learning as we were going. This time, we wanted to be more prepared. We watched probably 10 to 12 seasons of the show. Every time we would see something that a team did that we thought was a good idea of what to bring with you, we made sure we wrote it down.
Rachel: We got on a really strict training schedule. We'd wake up at 6 o'clock in the morning, run for three miles, do yoga, lift weights — anything we thought would help us, we would do. We really trained for Season 24. It's All-Stars and we knew everyone would be super-competitive.
Brendon: Rachel was training really hard. I actually got hit by a car before we left.
What? What happened?
Brendon: Yeah. I had to do some recuperating. I did some yoga and lifts here and there. I knew I would go no matter what, but I had to heal up. I ride my bike to school every day here in L.A. Somebody just took me out — I flipped over the car, I landed and scraped my arm, kind of hurt my ankle a little bit.
Rachel: You need to be careful!
Brendon: If L.A. were more bike-friendly, it wouldn't have happened. But I was OK.
It sounds like you're saying there'll be fewer Rachel meltdowns this season. So there's nothing on the scale of your meltdown in Italy last time?
Rachel: Yeah. Brendon and I talked about it before the Race, like, "OK, we're definitely not doing any salami challenges." [Laughs]
Brendon: The other thing about the meltdowns is if we're doing something where it gets to the point where we're having a meltdown, we just need to stop and focus on what we need to do. Deal with the emotions later. I'm sure you'll never be disappointed by Rachel in any capacity though!
Are we going to see a different side of Brenchel?
Rachel: Absolutely. Last time, Brendon and I had just come off Big Brother. We were newly engaged. You have a lot of issues to deal with. This time, we're married. All the stupid stuff, like not trusting your partner or in the back of your head you think they don't have your back — that's all gone. I think people will see that we're more comfortable with our relationship in general. You can tell we're a little more mature, we've learned a lot of lessons over four seasons of reality shows. We're married. Brendon can't leave me! [Laughs]
Brendon: So romantic! But don't mistake that for us not speaking our minds when one of us is upset with the other or in any terms of the Race. We're here to win $1 million. We were on last time for the experience, see the world. This time, we're here for the money. I told Rachel we have plenty of time to make friends after it's over. ... Some people get caught up in the Race and wants to make friends. We want to win the money. And we're doing it for the baby!
Do you have something to announce?
Brendon: Not yet! But yes, I do figure it'll cost about $1 million to raise a child in L.A. We want a house and a baby.
Were you surprised by any of the teams who were brought back?
Brendon: We went online to see who was prognosticated. Of course, there were some surprises. But it's fun because everyone speculates during an All-Star season. There are a lot of great Racers who have won, who have lost. ... We have some relationships with other Racers outside of the show from different seasons. We do a lot of charity events and we see a lot of the Amazing Race people, so who they brought back was interesting to us. Some of us talk to each other and are friends, so when you get back on the Race course, it could be hard to stab somebody in the back.
Were you worried about people targeting you like last time? You guys are an easy target.
Rachel: We are! We always assume we're going to be targeted. But in an All-Stars season, it's a lot easier to blend in with the rest of the teams so that you're not as much of a target. Everyone has raced before. Brendon and I also didn't win a leg in Season 20, so we thought people shouldn't be that scared of us. There are other teams that have won a lot of challenges before.
Brendon: We were hoping to stay under the radar, but I can never assume that. I think the main thing is we were more prepared. I even had Rachel drive around L.A. navigating, practicing stick. Last time, there was a point if I had picked the Roadblock, she would've had to drive a stick shift.
Rachel: That didn't work out well. Every single time Brendon was like, "You're never driving on the Race." They made me drive on hills, which is probably the hardest thing to practice when you're driving stick. Let's just say that I'm happy Brendon had me practice.
That's one of Phil [Keoghan]'s biggest pet peeves: people who can't drive stick or swim.
Rachel: I know! As a viewer, I wonder that too. When you go on these reality shows, I go to win $1 million, not to just be on TV, so I'm just so excited to get a second shot at this. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience and we get to do it twice, and I'm going to make sure we're going to practice and train as long as we need to. I always get shocked when people don't train or practice for the Race.
Would you do the show or Big Brother again? Or are you going to retire again?
Rachel: I don't think our reality career is done.
Brendon: We're going to put on Twitter that we're going to retire. [Laughs] My body's getting beat up, but I want Rachel to do it. I really want to pursue a career in medicine. I've been working toward this PhD for 10 years. I think Rachel's fun to watch and entertaining and she should pursue a career in reality and entertainment. If I can be working in a hospital and she's doing reality, that's fine with me.
Rachel: It will be a dot dot dot. I feel like our Brenchel story is always "to be continued."
Brendon: And never say never.
So you won't put your foot in your mouth again.
Rachel: Exactly. We got married on reality TV, so we obviously need to have a baby on reality TV!
The Amazing Race premieres Sunday, Feb. 23 at 8/7c on CBS.

So from that Entertainment Weekly cast reveal there was a small summary that I found interesting o
"Season 24's 11 returning teams — including fan favorites The Globetrotters, The Cowboys, Dave & Connor, and more — will travel through four continents and nine countries including China, Malaysia, Italy, and Sri Lanka. In a dramatic twist, one team won't even make it to the starting line! The action begins Sunday, Feb. 23 on CBS."
So they did do cast photos for Bopper & Mark AND what I find interesting is that they travel through four continents. It may be a error but who knows the season begins.
-
Interesting to note that the summary states 4 continents as opposed to 3...
And also, countries we have do far:
US
China
Malaysia
Sri Lanka
Italy
Spain
Meaning 3 countries are missing

wait, 4 continents? it means we have Africa this season ...

The easiest way to get the extra country and continent would be to slide in a quick Morocco visit after Seville. But not sure there is time there. :duno:

What's there between Italy and Spain? I don't think I have found anything about that

I'm very surprised they released the cast photo with Bopper instead of Mallory?
Imagine Bopper was racing and we just never spotted him, and Mallory was working with the production crew!! :funny:
And can we assume that this dramatic start line twist they're talking about is only false spec?? :res:
-
???
As we all know, Bopper started the race. He was replaced last minute by Mallory. Pretty straightforward. And exactly what Chateau reported from the start line.

Seriously?? :o
I knew Bopper had been asked, but never realised how far into planning he was. I thought he pulled out once he was asked, and they just used Mallory instead.
It'll be interesting to see whether CBS release an updated cast photo featuring Mallory, or what way they'll work it. ???
-
They'll work it as the Start Line drama. :tup:
-

That makes sense! :conf:
-
Bopper will be a great (scary) dramatic start line drama. Then Mallory appears very suddenly(at the airport?), so Mark can race on.

The only thing I'm confused on is how they were able to replace Bopper so fast.
They were very lucky to get her on such short notice.
But I'm sooooo happy they did! :hearts:
Lets face it though, Bopper & Mark need to return a third time, because you can't even count this one as a come back! :(
-
Even the CBS reveal states 4 continents and 9 nine countries. I wonder where in Africa they went to (If they did go to Africa)
-
I sadly don't see how they could squeeze in Africa... Or So America....or Antarctica...or Aus. (Well they could have but for the ill planned Malaysia Substitute legs)...
So where does that leave us? ??? Somebody drinking at work again? :funny:
-
Could the Kandy sighting not possibly be rolled up as part of Leg 5 (ie Colombo -> Kandy -> Colombo Rowing Club Pit Stop), or alternatively, a trip somewhere between Italy and Spain? ???
-
Well, we already have two legs Italy....
As best as we can tell on limited info, Kandy looks good.
-
Could we have possibly have a brief half leg in Africa on the way to Europe after Kandy?

During the first preview of TAR24, you could see someone rappelling on a waterfall with a Travelocity Gnome on their back. Possibly a Roadblock that takes place in Sabah, Malaysia since it is known as a land of beautiful waterfalls.

From the CBS reveal:
The Race will take them on a mission high above the city in Guangzhou,
China, rappelling down the roaring rapids of the Kiansom Waterfall in
Malaysia, fighting with Gladiators in Rome, Italy and fueling up
vehicles in Sri Lanka.

Apart from Morocco, how about Tunisia? Could they go from Italy to Tunis for example before going to Spain?
-
That thought occurred to me this morning when I read that Tunisa's Parliament has finished work on a new post-Arab Spring Constitution, which was signed by its interim president and prime minister, and there hasn't been the violence seen in all of its neighbors in the past few months.
Tunisia hasn't been visited since TAR 1 IIRC, so it would make sense if it has been as safe as I'm thinking it has been.

Rome-Tunis can be found on Tunisair and Alitalia. Tunisia-Seville would probably require connecting flights back in Europe, which I tend to regard as a good way to shake up the field a little. And a stable part of North Africa seems like a better way to pick up another continent than a really tight East African leg after Sri Lanka that probably would have required connecting through Dubai. (Though there's enough of a gap that they could have gone Rome-Ethiopia-Spain and had the dates work out, Ethiopia being one of the more stable & safe places in that region with good air access)

I thought Morocco was safer than Tunisia but if it's like that Tunisia is an option.

If you read through the press releases about this season, they all talk about the new "twist." We all know about a team not passing the starting line, so this got me thinking.
At first, we thought a certain teammate might have been injured or sick or couldn't leave the country for whatever reason. Now, however, I wonder if there is some type of SL task, with the losing team losing a teammate????
I am probably over analyzing the press releases, but sounds interesting.
-
There is a Starting Line Task. But the two things have nothing to do with each other. :tup:

To be honest, if it's an Allstars (TARUB - 23), I'm surprised they didn't choose Gary and Mallory over Margie and Luke, not because Margie and Luke are not memorable.. but, Gary and Mallory made a huge impression on UB.

Regarding this season's cast, I'm only happy to see five of the teams. :res:
So much more good choices from the other seasons ESPECIALLY TAR 19. TAR 19 snub is seriously ugh.

Bill and Cathi should of been asked to return! I can understand why Amarcus didn't come back and same with Snowboarders/Jeremy and Sandy but they were a great team who I think would of done well. Out of all the non three timers, the only odd pick from TAR 22 was Jessica/John.

TAR 4, TAR 6 and TAR 13 are the only seasons where there is not even one returning team... and those seasons feature some really memorable teams like Kelly and Jon, Kris and Jon, REBECCA <3, Lori and Bolo, Terence and Sarah and KEN AND TINA. Seriously don't get the producers taste and choice.
BACK TO THE TOPIC though, do you think Bopper will even appear at the starting line? I mean, even if Mallory is officially replacing, it's kinda hard and impossible to draw some links just right during the first 10 mins teams introduction segment?
-
Yes, Bopper will be at the Start Line.
-
I thought it says: "One team won't make it to the starting line." not "One team won't make it past the starting line."? ???
-
I thought it says: "One team won't make it to the starting line." not "One team won't make it past the starting line."? ???
That's also what I think, so that would mean that it wasn't the starting line task that got Bopper eliminated and Mallory take his place & race with Mark. ;)

That could be it. The Starting Line task could be played individually, and the last racer to finish it would be eliminated, with a mystery racer to take his or her place, Mallory being revealed as this mystery racer. Whether this be a blessing or a curse is up to the remaining racer to decide. And the "one team won't even make it to the starting line" thing is played on the technicality that the team 'changed' because one team member is different.

I'm pretty sure Bill & Cathi were one of the originally invited teams (the probable reason why there are so many Unfinished Business returnees), but I do remember Cathi stating she is a college instructor who also works her & Bill's ranch. Plus, the all-stars II filming was during school days so Cathi had no choice but to decline. They ran the race in the summer for TAR19. For casting, we have to think how the team would take the call. Not how we would.
There's no way Jeremy & Sandy would have been invited back. They are probably one of the least memorable dating teams yet. I can't even remember one placement they got before the finale.
-
Based on one of the promos, we see Cord and Jessica jumping with local dancers and trying to grab the flag of Sabah. We also see Cord rappelling off the Kiansom waterfall. They both seem like Roadblock tasks, but Cord is doing both, so it's not likely. Maybe the jumping is a Route Info task or Detour option, since they have the gnome in the rappelling and it seems odd to have both team members get the gnome.
-
There's no way Jeremy & Sandy would have been invited back. They are probably one of the least memorable dating teams yet. I can't even remember one placement they got before the finale.
Perhaps because they had literally no airtime :groan:

Sandy and Jeremy wanted to share their happiness with you all!!
Welcome to the world, Peyton Grace!!
From Sandy:
Our proudest moment. Payton Grace Cline. Born 10/9/13 at 3:51pm. 7lbs 3oz and 20in long. We are so in love and grateful!

Well, that could be a reason for them to DECLINE, but I don't think CBS even called them :P Anyway, it doesn't even matter, 'cause obviously they're not on and should not be worried about :lol:

Adorable! :luvya: Even though they weren't my race favorites and the news is pretty late, Payton is incredibly cute. :conf: Congratulations to Jeremy & Sandy.
-
Something that somewhat surprises me. If they are billing it as All Stars again why not invite back a winning team? I'm sure teams like Ernie & Cindy and Josh & Brent would happily race again if they needed another team to take part. Either of those two would be better than Jess and John :funny: Unless they are planning something for Season 25.
-
is wikipedia always true? if it is, then we have the fourth continent that isn't listed in our timeline :conf: :conf:
-
According to Wikipedia, this Season spans 35,000 miles, the same as last season. While I find it highly unlikely that this race could have as long of a route, it got me thinking.
We have several days between leg 7 in Rome and leg 10 in Seville. We also know that a fourth "mystery" continent was visited at some point on the race. From this information, I am suspecting that a country in West Africa was visited for two legs, with a possible NEL/TBC in the middle.
Also, the press release stated that there will be nine countries visited, of which we only currently know six: China, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Italy, Spain, and USA. The remaining three must each have their own leg, or one leg must visit two countries. My guess for the leg 11 is probably somewhere in west Europe, such as England/Wales/France/etc.
All of this is just speculation. Feel free to discuss.
-
I also think there will be 2 countries visited on 1 leg at some point deeper into the race. :hoot: I think it might be a small minor country like Andorra. Oh and btw, UB did that for leg 9 - they visited Liechtenstein, but went on to Switzerland for the detour & pitstop. ;)

Thanks for the clarification! Today is the first day since November that I've got time to browse RFF for updated info. :'( I haven't even got to watch the preview yet!! :iok I'm so out of the season 24 loop, but going to fix that now :yess: And I agree, it does explain the starting line drama!
-

Don't always depend on Wikipedia. Anybody can edit any un-padlocked page on there and get away with it.

ASSUMING WIKIPEDIA'S 100% ACCURACY. i doubt it would have visited a new country since the information is not leaked. Amazing race always releases information about new country being visited before airings, unless it didn't have a new country.
i think there would be two possibilities,
first, leg 8 or leg 9 being an african leg and europe as penultimate
or
leg 8 and 9 were in europe and a penultimate in south america ( just like UB )
i would've preferred the first scenario though :D

I'd prefer the first scenario tho. It's been a while South America as a Penultimate Le. Europe was just in Season 22 as a Penultimate Leg :res:

In all likelihood, we have two legs in Africa, unless either Morocco/Tunisia/etc. was visited. In any case, Africa is most likely our fourth continent.
Here are a few ideas for possible routes for the second half of the season:
leg 7: Sri Lanka -> Italy
leg 8: Italy -> West Africa
leg 9: West Africa
leg 10: West Africa -> Spain
leg 11: Spain -> UK/France
leg 12: UK/France -> USA
leg 7: Sri Lanka -> Italy
leg 8: Italy -> North Africa
leg 9: North Africa
leg 10: North Africa -> Spain
leg 11: Spain -> UK/France
leg 12: UK/France -> USA
leg 7: Sri Lanka -> Italy
leg 8: Italy -> Central Europe
leg 9: Central Europe -> North Africa
leg 10: North Africa -> Spain
leg 11: Spain -> UK/France
leg 12: UK/France -> USA
-
I don't care for Africa, I just here there's no more double legs :funny:

Even if it was the case that Africa was visited in between Italy and Spain, there can't be a double leg there as that would still only be 8 countries.

There could still be a double leg in Africa if a different leg has two countries visited, similar to Leg 9 of season 18. Also, there could be two African legs in a row in different countries as Africa is not a country.

What about Italy -> Morocco -> Gibraltar -> Sevilla (Spain)? Gibraltar is a country and Morocco isss in Africa. Gibraltar is also very close to Sevilla and Morocco. ;-)
(http://jpeg.cz/images/2014/02/05/hgrUv.jpg)

Nice map Don Task! :D However, technically Gibraltar isn't a sovereign country as it is a British Overseas Territory. I also thought that there were two confirmed legs in Italy...

Let's check the times and dates people saw teams in Italy and Seville, Spain. That will probably give me an idea on flight (or ferry) possibilities as well as if other North/West Africa countries could fit the route.
-
i kinda think that those teams went to central africa, because if they just went to northern africa, the distance won't add up to 35000 miles ( again ASSUMING WIKIPEDIA'S ACCURACY )
-
Wikipedia isn't accurate. The Press Release made a mistake.
-
Woo... thanks. Indeed there's a leg in Africa, probably Morocco between Italy and Spain.
Sadly, that does NOT appear to be the case. No Africa..... :'(
-
So the-most-boring-route-ever with tons of double legs, Switzerland and Wales being our unknown legs and Ethiopia being the cancelled leg is true? If so, I am gonna be extremely disappointed. :gaah:
Will the route of Amazing Race 25 be like Leg 1 - 3 China, Leg 4 - 6 India, Leg 7 - 9 Spain, Leg 10 - 11 UK with even more lies and rubbish in press release? I'll bet that's the true! *IRONY*
-
So wait, 3 continents; 8 countries?
-
R U KIDDING ME. :crazy:
That cast, now this route........... :tantrum
I really hope something's not true

The more I hear about 24, the more I hope they're doing this one on the cheap & easy to save up and do something really Amazing for the 25th edition.

As much as I love the idea of another All-Stars, this race seems pretty lame. Since the producers have evolved into absolute cheapos, I predict the route will be something like this...
Leg 1: USA --> China
Leg 2: China

Leg 4: Malaysia
Leg 5: Malaysia --> Sri Lanka
Leg 6: Sri Lanka
Leg 7: Sri Lanka --> Italy
Leg 8: Italy
Leg 9: Italy --> Morocco
Leg 10: Morocco --> Spain
Leg 11: Spain --> Paris, France --> London, UK
Leg 12: London, UK --> USA
Sorry CBS, but you disappoint :/

Travel to China is not boring, especially for us who can not afford it. Also the challenges hopefully reveal new insights into the places or people. Neither is Malaysia or Spain boring. I like the weirdness of the bull in a ball, wonder what that challenge is? I love the scenery, especially pit stops. I love the Amazing Race. May it continue a long time.

Travel to China is not boring, especially for us who can not afford it. Also the challenges hopefully reveal new insights into the places or people. Neither is Malaysia or Spain boring. I like the weirdness of the bull in a ball, wonder what that challenge is? I love the scenery, especially pit stops. I love the Amazing Race. May it continue a long time.
I enjoy it too. I may have come across as a bit pessimistic towards The Amazing Race in general with my earlier comment. There are many aspects that I enjoy about this route. I personally love China, and love it when they go. Same with Malaysia. They haven't been to Sri Lanka in 18 seasons, so I am glad they are returning. However, what I am upset about is the lack of creativity in the past few seasons (save for 22). The Amazing Race is supposed to be that - amazing. But seasons like 23 and now 24 aren't. The producers don't even care anymore about making a quality competition. All they care about is making the cheapest race possible. This season is going to at least three very popular European countries (Italy, Spain, France and/or UK), all of which have been visited within the last 4 seasons (Italy in 20, Spain in 21, UK in 22, France in 21 & 22). Why not go off the beaten path with places like Malta, Belarus, or Latvia. These places are even less expensive than touristy Rome or Paris. If they go to Morocco, I'd sure be happy (Morocco is actually one of my favorite countries ever), but I know it would just be a location added by the producers to a.) give them a place to go between Italy and Spain and b.) give them bragging rights to say that they went to another continent (Africa), because a three continent race wouldn't go over well with viewers, which would result in less revenue. What is really the kicker is the fact that this is an All-Stars. It is supposed to be one of the best seasons ever. However, I would rather watch the family edition travel through exotic New Jersey than watch this train wreck. What about the excitement of Ushuaia, Zanzibar, or Liechtenstein? But no, we get to watch bulls in plastic balls. How exciting.
This post was probably just for me to vent my frustration, and I know I'll probably be getting hateful messages towards my opinions, but I mean every word I said. I am in no way saying I hate the Amazing Race. This just happens to be a disappointing route for me, and I am starting to lose faith in any chance that this show will ever be amazing again. However, I do love it, and I will watch it until it ends or I die, whichever comes first :)
-
I understand, and this is the place to say stuff. May you and the race live a long time.
-
I really wish that they wouldn't do 3 continent races for an All Stars race or any race full stop. I'd expect at least 5 continents for a race like this.

Mark & Bopper are in the Starting Line. I wonder what twist it is so Bopper dropped out.
-
Just watched the new "Dramatic Twist" promo, and I think I have a fair idea how CBS will play this out -
From the promo, along with the new photo's on the CBS website of the teams, it's clear Boppers at the Starting Line.
What probably happened was Phil and Bopper (and most likely Mark) were at the hospital (which is seen in the promo) probably a few days or even the day before the scheduled start of the race, and was told the bad news. Bopper went to the start line, knowing he wouldn't be racing and that's where Phil reveals it to everyone else that Bopper is unable to compete?
This would make sense, as it helps explain how they were able to get Mallory as a replacement - She will probably show up at the Start Line and surprise the others. (I'd assume Mark already know's he's racing with Mallory)
I'm just VERY surprised that Mark wanted to go ahead and race without Bopper? ???
My only other concern is this medical condition? I hope it's only temporary, and won't hinder him from being able to compete in the race if asked to return in the future? Coz if any team deserve a third run, it's Bopper & Mark, and I don't even consider this a second time for them, so technically they've still only raced once! :(
Oh well, that's my analysis anyway. :lol:

We should have just had Mallory & Brooke tbh :/
Mallory auditioned with Brooke and was seen at casting apparently.

Remember back in live sightings thread, Mallory and Brooke were to be as an alternate replacement team, and Brooke was already in Mexico (November 15th) on her own personal trip.

Really?? Which season did they Audition for?
They wouldn't have held any auditions for All-Stars, and if they auditioned for a regular season I couldn't see CBS using them as they've already run the race and would be rather suited to a returning season.
But yea, even though I'm not a fan of the hybrid teams, I agree that they should have just told Mark to wait till next time and use Mallory & Brooke.

Many were called, few were chosen. Many were NOT called.
But yes there are "auditions" of a sort. Teams have to impress the high levels of production, CBS, sponsors, etc....
And Claude is correct.

Well that's me told! :funny:
Never knew they held Auditions for All-Stars though? Thought it was just the producers contacting who they want and just go down the list till they have 11 teams. :lol:

There was a "finals" but several more teams additionally went out separately. So any "finals" sightings are never 100% confirmation. They are always more teams "in the bushes". :funny:

On a different note though, I just re-watched the new promo and CBS SOOOOOOOOOOO dropped the ball on this it's crazy!
By looking at the shocked reactions of both the Afghanimals and Margie & Luke, and putting that together with the direction they're looking (over to their left, our right from viewing), and based on the positions of where each team is standing in the starting line picture (see link below) CBS have made it so easy for the fans to figure out that the "Shocking Drama" is in relation to Bopper & Mark. :groan:
Here's a link to the picture on the CBS site - http://www.cbs.com/shows/amazing_race/photos/1001191/phil-greets-the-teams-on-the-season-24-premiere/49304/

From the causal viewer's point of view, the promos may alert them that the team having a medical problem is Mark and Bopper, but none of the CBS written media or promos have given any hint that Mallory replaced Bopper.
So there's a surprise there for the causal viewer.
And let's admit that even our real time information did not have anything on why Bopper had to be replaced to race with Mark. (Also, IIRC, didn't Bopper have a medical issue during their prior Race? And I wonder if the two were related in any way.)

And then it'll make them mad crazy to see 2 great teams, including Mallory, eliminated first.....

Today I noticed that this weekend is the premiere of Season 24, and I'm just not that excited for some reason, I don't know if it is the cast, the way the first few legs were heavily spoiled for me, surprisingly because usually I don't mind spoilers, I don't really know what it is...
I'm curious to what happened in the starting line that they needed a replacement. I'm excited for new challenges and locations and because is a new season and I'll get to talk about it with more people about it but there is something off with this season.
-
Same old same old. At least one "villain" team and one "favorite" team in the final 3, to make it compelling. Would not be surprised if it was not Margie and Luke and the Afghanimals having at least 2 spots with Brenchel getting the 3 .

I'm all right with the Twins out first, I never really liked them after they stole from the Rockers in Season 21, so I'm glad to see Karma come back and bite them in the ass! :lol:
As for Mark & Mallory, if I'm correct, wasn't it the fault of Mark leaving his bag behind that got them eliminated??

You're right, but it doesn't change the fact that viewers (more accurately fans) will be disappointed :lol: And sad :/

Especially after watching the Cast Assessment video released today, when Phil says Bopper & Mark lost their jobs and are having a hard time at the minute. They're by far the most rootable team, not just this season, but quite possibly of all time? :hearts:
-
Just reading the interview with Phil and how he talks about the team that doesn't make it past the start line. It sounds as though it literally only happened the night before they actually started the race. Something must of happened between doing the videos the day before (If that is when they do them) and the night of that day.

:res: You need to look up the meaning of stealing :P
I don't think it was stealing because PRODUCTION GAVE IT TO THEM.
And for footnote 2, yes. Unfortunately :(
And once the season ends, time to speculate about their survival in the What If thread :lol:

[Well, whatever the case, I don't think it should have been allowed.
Sure, you can argue it was the Rockers own fault for leaving it sitting there and not being more careful, but it still put me off the Twins. :lol:

Let's keep this thread for TAR 24 discussion please? Y'all are welcome to discuss previous seasons in that thread. Thanks!

Part of me feels that the first leg in Malyasia will be a double roadblock leg. I wonder if they would do a double roadblock and a detour on the same leg, that could be interesting.

Technically the Chinese cupping massage too (although that looks to be a Detour so I don't know whether all teams will remember it if they don't complete the task)

It would actually be a unique idea for the finale roadblock, having some sort of bubbles' task idk, if they feature bubbles on most legs :colors

That could be a really cool final task! There were the bull-bubble tasks in Seville and the Canton Tower bubbles. There could also be bubbles in the Cupping thing (but its a Detour so I am doubtful) and in the Petronas Tower Skybar. Maybe, if they wash the elephants in Sri Lanka, bubbles could be there, too.
However, based on how many people (including myself) thought that it would be clue givers as the final task last season, this could be far off.

True! In the Skybar of the Petronas Twin Towers!
I still find it odd that they're having an alcohol task in a Muslim country, but oh well, I guess that comes with it being a replacement leg. I just wish that they would use the Laos leg they never used from TAR19.

Y'all are welcome to discuss the upcoming next episode in that thread. Future episodes stay here though! I moved some in case you wonder...

I was totally agree that the Guangzhou Tower's bubbles must be featured somewhere in the final leg; but I think it won't be all about bubbles. It could be some random things like the 12th season, maybe. Like, you'll not get any bubbles in Rome, I think ???

We are having different warriors as PitStop greeters. Maybe something to do with them for a task back in the US?
Helmets, weapons, armory... something possible in there?

In Vegas, anything is possible. :funny:

I agree, Las Vegas is quite a broad city ranging from the infamous Strip to vast, barren desert. None of us at RFF are 100.1% sure where any teams went during the filming as the only speculation we have is Brendon & Rachel posing in a picture with a BB fan of theirs. They may have flown by helicopter to an abandoned mining town for all we know. :lol:

The greeters' helmets and armor in both Guangzhou Legs are the same. I'm not sure if we will even see a memory/geography task this season. That's just my thoughts.

Do you think we'll see multiple back-to-back NELs?
1. We know from Neobie Margie & Luke survive this leg, meaning this leg is a non-elimination
2. Caroline & Jen are NEL in Italy.
3. We know Leg 10 has five teams.

So if Dave and Connor win the race, they are the first Parents/Child team to win and the first team winning leg 3 then win the race (in U.S version, of course).

I don't think that's quite right. We know that leg 4 is a NEL and that in Leg 5 Margie and Luke are eliminated. Then in Leg 6 the country girls are saved by a NEL since they have to do a speedbump in Italy.

Supposedly the Malaysian legs were a replacement for legs in the Philippines which had a very strong typhoon damage much of Manila and other areas shortly before the race started. However, nobody really knows for sure.
Beyond that, we don't even know where some of the legs were, let alone whether they were replacement legs. That's my impression, but I've been wrong before a few times.

And there was a leg in Melbourne which was cut as well.

If I'm right, UB was the last time they went to Oz, wasn't it?

And there was a leg in Melbourne which was cut as well.
STRONGLY suspected...but could not be confirmed. But I think it was real...
Malaysia both legs almost certainly. There was an extra funny delay after China leg 2....Also suspicious. Was China meant to be 2 legs ? Unknown.
So China>China>Malaysia> Malaysia could have been meant to be China>Philippines>Philippines>Melbourne.
We may never know for sure, sadly. I love that TAR was able to take a disaster and reschedule on such short notice, that is experience and a dedicated team at work. Major kudos for pulling it off.
BUT...I will prob always grieve for what could have been, this season would have been better. Heh, I am still grieving for the lost Tanzania leg in Season 11!!

In the current season of The Amazing Race, which is All-Stars. Philippines were originally to be in legs 3-4 and canceled due to last year's Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) in Leyte, earthquakes in Cebu and Bohol and military standoff in Zamboanga (a province located southwest of the country).
And it was replaced into Malaysia legs by a last minute. .
Remember Malaysia was one of the planned legs in TAR23?

Knowing that makes me understand why the Malaysian legs were a little bit lack lister in terms of the tasks used.(I didn't mind them but there was no WOW)
-
:o That explains the assigned flights on the 2 Malaysian legs.
-
It also explains why it seems like the rafting wasn't fully safety-tested.
On The Amazing Race Australia 2, is there a reason why teams flew to Havana to get to the Pit Stop after going to the Parisian footbridge? I find it odd.
I found that really odd too... It was a "To be continued" leg, but still...
There was a Detour in Havana that wasn't shown, after the airport and before the nightclub. Among the other hints, teams arrive at 3:20pm (or thereabouts, my memory's fuzzy) and the nightclub is at most 22 minutes away on a straight road, yet nobody arrives until after sunset several hours later.
Do you have any more sourcing or 'evidence' on this? I'd love to add it to the wiki, but that's a little thin at the moment.

So, now that we know the leg after Rome is in Orvieto, Italy, I'm looking forward to it. It appears to be a dramatic and historic location between Rome and Florence. There are lots of old castles and churches, some over 1,000 years old. Also, it appears to be a center for ceramics, lace and woodworking. I saw mention of caves and even a funicular. There should be a lot to do there. Looks like it is a small city, so that is probably why we had no sightings.
I would think with one leg at an unknown destination between Orvieto and Seville, North Africa looks like a strong possibility. Gibraltar or the French Riviera would work too.

Cleo had Bern, and now we have confirmation from the opening sequence that Bern is indeed the leg between Orvieto and Seville.

countries: USA, China, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Italy, Spain, 3 more (Switzerland?, France?, eh?)
Also, where did Orvieto and Bern came from? Edit: Found Orvieto via Wikipedia. Bern?
Edit: With China, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and Italy having 2 legs each, and the last one reserved for the US, the last four countries would be visited within 3 legs. :(

Orvieto came from a press release in the media thread. I'm not sure about Bern

They could just place a cluebox within the Vatican and, presto, they visit another country.

This route isn't worthy of being All Stars to be honest. 4 double country legs in a row is just boring especially for the teams in my opinion.

Pretty sure it's not just in your opinion.

Same opinion here. If there were no Philippine disasters back during November, the 2 legs in Malaysia would still be 2 legs in the Philippines (correct me if I'm wrong). Not all-star at all. :groan:

Well, at least they would have been planned legs, not replacement. (Although I kinda liked Malaysia 2 and the rafting task saved Malaysia 1 lol)

They actually planned on visiting the Vatican, in a switchback to a Season 1 Fast Forward. (And like the original, no one used it :funny:)
Really? :ascared Wow, how'd you know?
In any case, they'll probably be visiting Africa (because CBS said they visited 4 continents), mostly likely Morocco through the Gibraltar, which means Spain too (And the UK?). For all we know, they miscounted the number of continents and countries they visited. :res:
-
Four countries in eight episodes? :groan: I am really considering registering a Kickstarter for TAR and writing Bruckheimer a check for the sole purpose of visiting more countries with better, tougher tasks.
However, I'm not too anxious for this specific Leg as I researched Orvieto for a while. The historical, narrowly winding roads will be a navigable challenge, possibly even more so than TAR12 in Vinci when Kynt & Vyxsin flipped out about driving and their gas pedal/gear shift malfunction. There is also a strong possibility of a feature of Italy with their authentic wine countries.
-
Please read the spoilers. There is NO Africa, no 4 continents, and no Vatican as far as we know. Very sad. :(
This route could have been much improved by adding in the Vatican, Malta, and Gibraltar /Morocco.
-
So it's gonna be like this, right?
(http://oi62.[banned image hosting site].com/20f7qk3.jpg)
Why would PHIL and CBS lie to us with the number of countries, continents and miles? It can only turn against them, it brings nothing positive. I dont belive they counted the countries wrong. It would be so amateurish and lame.
I still hope we will be heavily surprised, because there will be some exotic African country included. That would be the only thing to make TAR24's route 'the second worst after TAR8', not the worst at all. :(
-
I think it was just a mistake, not a lie. Perhaps there were originally 4 continents, and somebody just goofed.
As far as we can figure, there is just NO time to add in an African stop...even a quickie from Seville. But oh boy....I would do the happy dance if we are wrong on this one. This route is def NOT "AllStar's" worthy.

If so, I'm guessing they counted North America twice: North America (1), Asia (2), Europe (3), North America (4). :res:
Countries? USA (1), China (2), Malaysia (3), Sri Lanka (4), Italy (5), Switzerland (6), Spain (7), United Kingdom ('8'), USA (9) :res:
After putting 'Season 18' for a Joey & Meghan flashback, I wouldn't be surprised :res: (I will hold that against them forever)
So teams just flew from Paris to get to Las Vegas? I'm still a bit lost :(

I think with the 9 countries they might be considering Wales and England to be separate countries similar to how they did in Season 22 with Ireland and Scotland

They did it in TAR 22 with 10 countries being listed as visited with Scotland and Northern Ireland being counted as two different countries. As for the four continents thing, I think they are trying to justify the route saying they visited four continents

So the route is :groan: , the cast is :groan: . What else can make things worse?
About the route, at least they didn't visit Indonesia this season. :lol:

During episode 3 (Joey & Meghan's boot episode) around whey they didn't ask their taxi to wait and they had to walk to find someone to call a taxi.

From the "for what it's worth" dept: I was in the train station at Orvieto on Nov. 29 last year, and a local mentioned that TAR racers had just been through. Not sure whether they were getting on or off the train. Then, an hour or so later, I was in Civita di Bagnoregio, and got the same report. From a distance, I thought I spotted a yellow/red clue box on the walkway up to the Civita. By the time I got to the walkway, however, it had been removed. Once I got into the Civita itself, there were a lot of people milling about and leaving, A/V equipment being broken down, and generally just more activity than the normal tourists. Again, according to a local, TAR racers had just been there, re-creating a local donkey race in the town piazza.

Thanks for sharing the info to all of us. So for now, we're expecting a train ride to Orvieto after the Leg in Rome. A Donkey Palio task will be featured according to a local. Great job!

I was wondering just what this donkey task would be...I still remember this one (TAR 12) LOL!!

Let's not forget the donkey detour task in TAR 3 in Mexico, which brought us one of the funniest TAR sequences ever.

Nah... TAR3 with Ian as the Lord of All driving with Teri leading the donkey, Heather or Eve doing the faceplant when their donkey bolted.

Unless CBS plan on doing similar 30 minute interviews with all the remaining teams, I think we have our winners :wohoo: :conf:
No.
I agree. That would just be awful. It would essentially make me vow not to ever watch any "all-star" season of ANYTHING EVER again! :tantrum

Just before the Orvieto episode next week I have some spoilers to share, even if it's not a lot.
The following spoiler info and photos come from sprinklensparkle, although unfortunately we have no additional details of the sighting.
Teams were required to travel to Pozzo di S. Patrizio (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pozzo_di_S._Patrizio) and collect a clue from a bucket at the bottom of the well.
(http://i.imgur.com/PPffSdp.jpg)
The clue is on the far right in the pic below
(http://i.imgur.com/TEkGBjS.jpg)
Production crew was also spotted outside the Duomo di Orvieto (see street view (https://www.google.com/maps?ll=42.717131,12.112573&spn=0.304203,0.676346&cbll=42.717131,12.112573&layer=c&panoid=8LS_Bt4JhndjlWw192AOYw&cbp=12,317.68,,0,-4.82&t=m&z=11)), which was previously spoiled in the intro caps here (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,29782.msg975928.html#msg975928). It's possible that the crew was just filming the intro shot, but there are multiple crew members + boom there, so I figured it might be an actual race location.
(http://i.imgur.com/AcRkSl5.jpg)
Awesome! I KNEW that they had to vidi the Pozzo!
-
Re St Patrick's Well:
This unique well was created because a pope was paranoid about having water
during a feared siege. A double helix, the steps down and down do not intersect
the steps leading up. The citizens of Orvieto used little donkeys to carry the
water up in buckets and make the return journey unimpeded...

I predict Wrexham will be the site of penultimate leg. Its a largest town in North Wales.

It was 4 continents and 9 countries with the first route (USA to China to Philippines (2) to Australia to Sri Lanka (2) to Italy (2) to Suisse to Spain to UK to USA) but they must have made a mistake. Stupid editors.

Show content
Original route:
USA - China - Philippines (x2) - Australia - Sri Lanka (x2) - Italy (x2) - Switzerland - Spain - UK - USA
4 continents, 9 countries, 35,000 miles
Continents: North America, Asia, Oceania, Europe
(Alternate) actual route:
USA - China (x2) - Malaysia (x2) - Sri Lanka (x2) - Italy (x2) - Switzerland - Spain - UK - USA
3 continents, 8 countries, 25,000 miles
Continents: North America, Asia, Europe
Note: The route was changed at the last minute when both of the Philippine legs were canceled due to the Typhoon, and Melbourne, Australia was abandoned. Guangzhou moved from one to two legs with the same greeters in the first two legs. Malaysia legs are the replacements of the Philippine legs.
So means no Africa nor South America.
-
Remember guys. WHAT WAS supposed to be remains SPECULATION. While we believe this (esp the Philippines) very likely, it CANNOT be 100% confirmed either way. SO do not present things as fact when they are not confirmed. Remember the TAR 11 Tanzania leg? Even after all this time, what was supposed to be remains lost. :(
-
It seems that they are trying so hard to keep things quiet about the All Stars season that they even forgot to put the editors in the loop.
-
I reiterate from a much previous post - UK is confirmed? Seems possible, but wasn't France thrown into the mix as well? :duno:

Okay thanks!
I`am like i think that they, have went to great Places (could have been without 2 legs in Guangzhou, one would have been fine). But 3 continents in a Season, is not good. I want at least 4-6!
I just hope that The Amazing Race 25 kicks ass then!!!!

Uhmm, I just wanna point out, leg 1 and 2 had different greeters. I know a lot of people (including me) mistake Chinese people, but we've had close ups of those 2 greeters posted somewhere around here and they're definitely different people.

And saying yet again...while we do really THINK (based om good information) that the Philippines and Melbourne were supposed to be around this time...please do not state that this was an absolute...this will prob never be confirmed 100%. Just like TAR 11....

With the Geneva pic posted by Phil, does that mean we have teams drive from Geneva to Lucerne? To me it seems like a long unnecessary drive when Zurich is closer. Is this feasible?

We're talking about classic Ford Mustangs, y'all. It depends on whether Ford owns them, or if they're from private collectors.
The insurance premiums would be massive on classic cars like those.

There was an interesting news item about the Ford Mustang on the news tonight.
50 years ago, Ford engineers disassembled a yellow 1965 Mustang and reassembled it on the observation deck of the Empire State Building and invited the media to photograph it. They repeated this photo op today, with a yellow 2015 Mustang.
Now we can see that Ford was planning ahead, since this Mustang appearance on TAR was perfectly timed to this same week. That's pretty amazing planning. (pun intended.)
-
It's been a bit weird not seeing any U-Turns for 7 episodes, so I kinda thought that maybe they just cut 1 from the edit because no one used it? And I think I read someone throwing this out there, but now I think it's pretty clear that this wasn't the case from JJ's exit interview:
EJ P: If given the opportunity, would you guys run the race again? And would you have a different strategy/mindset?
John: Yes, for sure. The race really is a once in a lifetime opportunity so the fact that we got to run it twice is so cool. We'd be humbled if we got the chance to do it again and we definitely would. If we did get to do round 3 we'd probably be U-turning people like crazy. Haha, just kidding, we've actually never even seen a U-turn board. Anyways, if we got to do it a third time we'd be married by then! So maybe that's been the missing link this whole time. I bet we'd take it if we ran it as newlyweds.

Well we have confirmation of only 3 continents. Liverpool and Wales are the final leg. Although I'm happy to see Wales finally, it shouldn't be wasted on this "all star" season.
-
I mean, if I was just looking at the countries, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Italy, Spain & UK (Wales!!) really make up a good route in my opinion. Only that all those double legs ruined the first half and a lot of the tasks were.... disappointing. But had this been a route for a regular season, I wouldn't be complaining as much, especially if there were no doubles in either of China or Sri Lanka. I mean, both of those double legs could've been merged into single legs.
Overall it's just so NOT an All-Stars route :tantrum

I agree that there was no need for two legs in China, but one was a replacement leg.
However, I LOVED the two Sri Lanka legs and I think that TAR should go to Sri Lanka more often.

I'm not exactly sure where to put this, but the title for Episode 10 is "Bull Down".
-
Since I know that there will be U-Turn in Leg 10, and in the last U-Turn, the Afghanimals is uses to U-Turning Cowboys in first or last slot(?). Since Brenchel and Cancer are already used the U-Turn, maybe Country have been used to U-Turn other team or not. As you know, Cowboys are eliminated in leg 10. :groan: :groan: :res: :res:
-
The Europe portion of this race actually has some pretty good destinations. That said, the six legs in Asia will really drag down future opinion of the race.
-
I found this quote on Wikipedia:
In the original CBS press release, the race was planned to travel in four continents, through nine countries and 35,000 miles. The reason for the route modification was not disclosed.
-
I don't know if I can put this here...
The Bubble Bull it seems a Detour.
We can see Brenchel & Cowboys in Bubble Bull.
We can see Connor & Jamal doing Shave Ballons (RB) also.
Country singers don't appear.
I think Bubble Bull is a race across the streets and it's plenty with other random bulls who try to beat the teams. xD

Brenchel completed a shirt printmaking Speed Bump at Trendy Connections in Colombo,
Caroline & Jenn completed a typewriter transport to a pedestal in Rome.

https://www.facebook.com/amazingrace/posts/10152375836184941?stream_ref=10 Great news! David Copperfield, Las Vegas's most renown illusionist, is one of our VIP guests in this season's finale. If he can't "appear" to turn this season around, nobody can. :hearts:
Behind Phil and Copperfield, there is a construction crane, a fire truck with its crew, an engulfed "bowl" of some sort, and a table-like machine or grid. I'm unsure if this is the task itself or the stage set-up/maintenance for the challenge.
As for the location, the two iconic icons are standing left across from the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino. Also, the only way we are able to see the MGM neon sign, palm trees, and buildings at that specific angle and a fire truck on the right at the same time is if we were standing on a multi-level PARKING GARAGE. My first hunch is the self-parking garage at the Tropicana Hotel & Casino on East Tropicana or Monte Carlo Hotel & Casino's parking garage behind a CVS pharmacy. Sorry, I'm awful at exact locations, but any info is better than no info.

the title of the last episode of TAR 24 seems that The Cowboys will be on the final 3 but hopefully the country girls will make it there and win it. :hug?:

Cool find Rachel. I have a slightly different take on where Phil & David are. That's the rear view of the MGM Grand (where the Porte Couche entrance is), along with the (east) Tropicana tower, and the building with the red signage is the Hooters Casino. So that would put then around E. Reno Ave at Giles St. The map explains all (sorry for the large size, but there's a lot of info). But then again I may be wrong. ;)

David Copperfield and Phil Keoghan on The Amazing Race: All-Stars Season Finale
David created the illusion the final teams take part in during their road block. Teams have to master “the art of escape.”

I'm not so excited about that because we have already seen that before (TAR21) !

Oh, sorry! It's a mistake! I want to say Fast Forward! Sorry! :groan: :groan: :funny:
-
I wonder if the magic roadblock is a memory challenge? It was stated as a FINAL CHALLENGE, and I really don't want this to be like the UB finale without a memory task.
-
Is it true that D&C won?
-
I wonder if the magic task has anything to do with the Fire Truck behind David and Phil...
-
I think it has someth to do with a construction on fire that's behind Phil and Dave. And that's why there are guys from Las Vegas Fire.
-
As you know, Cowboys are eliminated in leg 10. :groan: :groan: :res: :res:
Huh? ???
-
Is it true that D&C won?
My speculation is that Dave and Connor did not win, for various reasons. However, due to editing, I find it hard to rule out any of the other teams as winner possibilities.
-
I hope that the country singers dont win.

Copperfield has always used a lot of pyrotechnics in his shows. I suspect that the spot in the Amazing Race finale is no different. Most cities and states have laws that require fire dept personel on site when pyrotechnics are used for safety reasons.

Have you watch earlier posts? I'm sure you not read earlier posts and in other threads as well. In leg 11, Afghanimals are eliminated.

I feel like one of the Legs in Italy had the Fast Forward, but nobody chose it. Orvieto perhaps since Caroline & Jenn still had to do their SB.

I feel like it's the one thing they are doing right: no Fast Forwards in Returning Racers seasons. The Race should be more challenging and that all teams must go through the same course and no short cuts. But for regular seasons, they really should increase the number of Fast Forwards to around 5.

Alrighty, looking at the photo, you're looking northeast. I'm not very good at copying Google Maps, so I estimate they're standing in the Luxor southeast parking lot right beneath the monorail that runs from Excalibur to Luxor to Mandalay Bay.
So, looking northeast from the Luxor parking lot, you see the MGM Grand, the rear side of the Tropicana tower, and the Hooters Hotel right between Phil and David's heads.

IIRC, only the 1st 4 eliminated teams were confirmed. The rest were all spec, including Cowboys getting U-turned by CaroJen, Cowboys finishing in 5th, Afghanimals finishing in 4th, Brenchel finishing in 3rd, etc... So I think there's still hope to have the Afghanimals race on the final leg.
IIRC, only the winner spec and spoilers are very confusing. ??? It's either Show content
D&C or CaroJen.
Correct me if I'm wrong. :)

Only the final five were confirmed because the Globes were seen in Bangkok with the remaining eliminated teams if I remember correctly. Cowboys were believed to be eliminated in 5th, because somebody on Sucks saw them being interviewed at the mat or something like that...
-
What we have in the sightings thread is a direct messages exchange between abollo and a tweeter user who said he saw three M/M teams arriving to the mat, and the very real chance that Leo/Jamal have won the leg, based on abollo showing him their pics and the user pointed them as the ones he saw first arriving; and 2 photos of Cowboys and Brenchel doing their confessionals at Plaza de España.
-
Just a random thought, but I was thinking that maybe the final task might be a Memory challange relating to music?
Every leg, except for the 2nd, teams heard some sort of music playing somewhere along the route, E.g the wise man on Leg 6 with the flute, or any of the bands such as the start line, or the celebrations in Leg 3, and disco in Leg 4.
Anyway, my guess is maybe the final challange will have teams listen to loads of different music pieces and match them to the corresponding leg.
AND the twist would be that the William Tell theme would be the music for Leg 9, even though teams never actually heard it, so they'd just have to figure it.
Not sure if I explained that all that well, but yea, that's what I'm thinking? :lol:
But with David Copperfield, the final task is probably a magic task, which I'm also fine with. :lol: :wohoo:
-
Wow! I had that idea for a memory task, but that's good spec. :)
-
I think the Copperfield task will be a Leg Opener, to make the audience more interested in it. Opening with a WOW moment is always recommended.
With the speculated change on the route I don't know if we would even have a memory task because I figure it would've been planned before the start of the race.

The captions said something about the final TEAMS taking part in the Roadblock. I'm thinking this may be like TAR15 all over again, Roadblock when arriving at McCarran and then a few more things to do before the Finish Line. ;)

Here's some interesting information I found in the Wikipedia article on David Copperfield. It turns out he owns the International Museum and Library of the Conjuring Arts, which is located at his headquarters in Las Vegas. I initially thought that would be where they would have teams do magic. However, from the descriptions I found of the museum it doesn't sound like a place with performing stages. I think the museum probably isn't directly related to anything we will see in the finale, but stranger things have happened.
International Museum and Library of the Conjuring Arts
Copperfield owns the International Museum and Library of the Conjuring Arts, which houses the world's largest[38] collection of historically significant magic memorabilia, books, and artifacts. Begun in 1991 when Copperfield purchased the Mullholland Library of Conjuring and the Allied Arts, which contained the world's largest collection of Houdini memorabilia,[2] the museum comprises approximately 80,000 items of magic memorabilia, including Houdini's Water Torture Cabinet and his Metamorphosis Trunk, Orson Welles' Buzz Saw Illusion and automata created by Robert-Houdin.[38][39]
The museum is not open to the public; tours are reserved for "colleagues, fellow magicians, and serious collectors".[38] Located in a warehouse at Copperfield's headquarters in Las Vegas, the museum is entered via a secret door in what was described by actor Hugh Jackman as a "sex shop"[40] and by Forbes as a "mail-order lingerie warehouse".[2] "'It doesn't need to be secret, it needs to be respected,' he said. 'If a scholar or journalist needs a piece of magic history, it's there.'"[41]
And here's a more detailed description by a visitor from a Los Angeles Times article from 2002:
LAS VEGAS — It's the middle of the night, and David Copperfield is exploring the rooms where the ghosts live.
It often happens when Copperfield, arguably the world's most famous magician, is staying at the massive industrial warehouse that serves as his headquarters and home when he is not on his relentless international touring schedule. He will find it hard to sleep, and, wandering around in his robe, he winds up in an immaculately designed room filled with strange wonders.
Inside, an animatronic figure -- a wind-up mechanical man in a glass case -- begins to silently wave his small baton without warning. Shadows seem to move in and about the hundreds of framed vintage posters of legendary magicians hanging on the walls. As Copperfield moves around, Charlie McCarthy, the wooden partner of ventriloquist Edgar Bergen, sits in a chair, taking in the eerie atmosphere.
"I don't know why these things seem to move just by themselves," Copperfield says. "They just do."
Though Copperfield is best known for his glitzy stage shows and the elaborate live TV productions in which he made the Statue of Liberty, an airplane and a 70-ton Orient Express train vanish, it is in these hidden and locked rooms where the more introspective and private artist finds sanctuary and inspiration.
These rooms contain possibly the world's largest magic museum, filled with priceless and irreplaceable artifacts on the history and art of magic from around the world. More than 80,000 items are housed in the private museum, which Copperfield has christened the International Museum and Library of the Conjuring Arts.
Among its more valuable pieces are Harry Houdini's Metamorphosis Trunk, the first ever employed in the illusion of disappearances; coins that Wyman the Wizard used to pass through President Lincoln's hands; the Chung Ling Soo rifle, believed to be the weapon used when the Chinese magician performed his notorious bullet-catching trick one too many times; and props used by Channing Pollock, the magician frequently featured on the Ed Sullivan show who would produce doves out of thin air. Also included in the museum are 15,000 magic books, some from the 16th century.
The museum is off-limits to all but the magician's admired colleagues, fellow magicians and serious collectors.
It sounds like a cool place to have the teams wander through and do their magic trick. However, I suspect it's more likely they will just use Copperfield's show room at the MGM Grand for during the off hours between shows. Now that I think of it, since they arrived in the late afternoon, that would argue for it being one of the first places they go, since show rooms (and David Copperfield) would be busy and unavailable from roughly 7 PM to midnight or later.

The Amazing Race: All Stars Spoilers – Elimination Order and Route Info
By Steven On 02/16/2014 · 12 Comments · In Amazing Race
The Amazing Race: All Stars premieres next week, but the elimination order has already been revealed. Read on if you want to know where each team places and travels in the race this season, including who the winners are.
The premiere is next week, and I’ll be back to recap the season for this site. However, the entire season has already been spoiled online. Before I post the spoilers, I must clarify that I did not attain these spoilers myself. These were first posted online months ago while the race was in progress on the website Survivor Sucks. The spoilers also were posted on Reality Fan Forum and Idol Forums. So I don’t take credit for discovering these spoilers. I’m just sharing them on this site as well.
Here is the boot order of The Amazing Race: All Stars:
11th place: Natalie and Nadiya
10th place: Mark and Mallory
9th place: Joey and Meghan
8th place: Margie and Luke
7th place: John and Jessica
6th place: Flight Time and Big Easy
5th place: Jet and Cord
4th place: Leo and Jamal
3rd place: Brendon and Rachel
2nd place: Caroline and Jennifer
1st place: Dave and Connor
So there you have it. Dave and Connor, the father/son duo who had to withdraw from their first race due to Dave’s injury, end up winning The Amazing Race: All Stars. Dave and Connor’s victory (as well as the entire boot order) seems to be true based on evidence posted online. But the only way to be certain is to watch the season.
In addition, here is the route info for this season:
Leg 1: Guangzhou, China
Leg 2: Guangzhou, China
Leg 3: Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia
Leg 4: Kuala Lampur, Malaysia
Leg 5: Colombo, Sri Lanka
Leg 6: Kandy, Sri Lanka ------>>>> :funny: :funny: (RFF)
Leg 7: Rome, Italy
Leg 8: Orvieto, Italy
Leg 9: Lucerne, Switzerland
Leg 10: Seville, Spain
Leg 11: North Wales, United Kingdom
Leg 12: Las Vegas, Nevada
So what are your thoughts on the spoilers? Are you happy with the winning team? Post your thoughts in the comments section below and come back next week for my first episode recap of The Amazing Race: All-Stars.
-
Oh god no :res:
-
NOOOOO
AFGHANIMALS PLEASE SAVE THE SEASON!
-
NOOOOO
AFGHANIMALS PLEASE SAVE THE SEASON!
For me it's either way The Afghanimals or D&C (I still like Connor)
-
NOOOOO
AFGHANIMALS PLEASE SAVE THE SEASON!
Afghans+Brenchel+Country Final 3 is still what I would love to see.
Either one of them winning would be really good. I wish the spoiler was wrong! :P
-
I guess D&C deserve it, I'm OK with them winning, but I would still love to see Afghanimals in the final 3! (1st or 2nd would be perfect :D)
I hope they don't get eliminated because of the knee injury ...
-
I'll have anyone winning except country. If country wins, I'll go berzerk. :gaah: :tantrum

Goodness, I have not been here in a LOOOONG time...
Exciting season so far IMO. Anyways two legs left and it's pretty exciting on how things have turned out so far.
Magic task on the Final leg? Looks exciting... but we'll see when the time comes.
Winner? I'm OK with anyone but Brenchel. I don't like those two but I'd like to see Dave and Connor or the Afghanimals win.I'm fine with the singers but in the end, I'm fine really. :)
-
Is it true that D&C won?
My speculation is that Dave and Connor did not win, for various reasons. However, due to editing, I find it hard to rule out any of the other teams as winner possibilities.
Well now it seems like Dave and Connor will win. :lol:
-
The magic task on TAR Asia 4 Finale was lame beyond words. I'm not banking on pitting any high hopes. :funny:

Very true. I'm doubtful that the magic task will live up to its hype.

Not sure if I explained that all that well, but yea, that's what I'm thinking? :lol:
But with David Copperfield, the final task is probably a magic task, which I'm also fine with. :lol: :wohoo:
I was thinking the same thing... everything fits... never thought about the William Tell music...
About Leg 2... what about the noise of the toy car from the Roadblock... maybe that is what they will actually hear...
Leg 1: Marching Band - Pit Start
Leg 2: Toy Car Noise - Roadblock
Leg 3: Tribal Music at the Raft Building Station - Route Marker or Pit Stop.
Leg 4: Rythm to bounce to get a clue in Kota Kibanalu - Roadblock
Leg 5: Sewing Machine - Roadblock
Leg 6: Wise Man - Route Marker
Leg 7: Swords Clashing? - Detour (This might not work)
Leg 8: Donkeys? - Both Detours (This might not work)
Leg 9: William Tell?
Leg 10: Trumpet guy in Alameda de Hercules - Route Marker or Barber of Seville Opera - Roadblock
(Or maybe the Star Wars theme :funny: )
Maybe is not just music but... music seems like it could be a big part of the challenge.
-
I still think if there is an memory task, they will do a TAR 17 or TAR 12. Because there are a little amount of countries so something like TAR 21, 23 is not really work and I hope that they did not do anything like TAR 22.
-
I would love a TAR 12 style of challebge... that is still my favorite memory challebge... the one that screams Amazing Race to me.

I never even thought about that! :ascared
But, as unfair as that would be, something's telling me that producers wouldn't have taken that into consideration... Just like Leg 4's Detour all over again. :groan:

At least the bartender stunt Detour had some sort of hope for Luke to do despite the glassware tantrum. With music in the finale, even sign language will be IMPOSSIBLE for Margie to communicate with Luke.
-
There is always the chance that is a RoadBlock and in some cases we've seen clues saying "X MUST do this Roadblock" this could've easily been the case with Margie&Luke... It usually applies to teams with their set of 6 completed but still...
-
Music is just SPEC...not anything remotely confirmed. Just saying...

Yes Peach... and this is the Spec Thread, hence the reason for our Speculation. :<3

I think now that we know the title of the finale, I suspect that Dave & Connor and Caroline & Jen are in the final three. Wonder who is the remaining team?

Based on the Pit Stop picture of Leo & Jamal, it seems like they're out in 4th again. :(

For the Las Vegas finale Leg, it doesn't seem likely teams will be driven anywhere out of the Las Vegas casino area since traffic is pretty heavy going towards Boulder City and Enterprise/Paradise, plus it's filmed during the night.
Taking the zero live sightings, nighttime, and highway traffic into consideration, could the finish line be located on the rooftop of a skyscraper/hotel? Purely spec.

Unless you want to count go-kart places, the LV Motor Speedway is the only racetrack in the Las Vegas metro area (in the outskirts of Sunrise Manor). I'm not sure if they'd go that far out of the main city during the night.

Racetrack.

There is also Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It has lights and is, sort of, out of the way...
OMG, I'm finally right...

I don't think anyone else mentioned this, but CaroJen had a podcast interview on the Bobby Bones Show, and during it they say something very very controversial! And if it's true I'll be insanely pissed! (:;)
They said that when they got to the Helicopter / Skydive Task, Caroline got ready faster than David, and actually saw the Clue before him, but she wasn't allowed to jump first because David & Connor got to the Clue Box first??
If this is true, then I have to say, CBS, YOU HAVE ACTUALLY FIXED THE RACE!!!! :groan: :'(
I'm not a happy person today! (:;)

We'll know more soon...
"Bobby said he will have to bring in Caroline from The Amazing Race to talk about her loss. Everyone is still hung up on it and want to know the secrets that we don’t get to see on the show."

Before this joke of a race (it doesn't even deserve to be capitalized now), teams have numbers to pull or sheets to sign up to determine the helicopters, flights, task order, but CBS, WRP, TAR would do anything for their little angels Dave & Connor to win. :res:

Before the Race??? :o
I never knew that, I would've assumed that the order was determined by those numbers they have attached to the clue boxes? ???
And in cases such as this, the order would be determined simply by the person to see the sign first, gets to jump first!!!! :groan:
-
The one who got the clue first would get the helicopter first. The one who got the answer first would jump first.
Dave and Conner got the clue first so of course, Dave would be in the helicopter first even if he take some minutes more to wear those jumpsuit.
About the second one, I wonder how Caroline know that she got the answer before Dave?

I assumed the 'clue' mentioned here was the Roadblock clue, not the billboard clue. So which one was it?

Tasks like this require safety briefings. ALL teams must go thru the safety briefings, my guess is this is a production effort to not let a safety/mechanical requirement affect the placements.

Antagonization of Brendon & Rachel
Placing Dave & Connor on a pedestal
Dissolution of the RB split
Visiting 4 countries in 8 legs
Mediocre and unfair leg structures
Disappearance of the much anticipated memory challenge at the finale
Why did this season even happen? :res:

I agree with you, It wasn't a good "All Stars" Season at all, if it was a regular newbies season I wouldn't really have a problem with the route and challenges but it just wasn't worthy to be called "All Stars". If anything let's hope they have learnt from their mistakes with thi season.

Strongly agree with everything above. The sad truth of the season. :(

I'm mostly disappointed by lack of memory challenge, really easy tasks most of the legs, dissolution of the RB split (this really makes me angry ... especially that Dave and Connor are the only ones who didn't do the same amount of rb ...) . I kind of get that most of the legs were changed last minute but still, they were really disappointing ...
I hope next season is a lot better ...

From what I understood it was the Billboard Clue that she seen first, but apparently she wasn't allowed to jump until Dave had spotted the clue and jumped because of him and Conner reaching the cluebox outside the Maverick Helicopters building before Country did. :groan:

Even if I don't want country to win, if Caroline found the finish line location 1st, but wasn't allowed to jump 1st, it is really unfair. :( This season has too many flaws. If this were a non-all-star season, but the route for the first 8 legs is the same, the unbalanced roadblock count exists, and the unfair finish line bungee jump happening, this season still wouldn't be good.
In other words: newbie season = bad; all-star season = the worst season. :(

I really hate to say it because I love seeing teams return, but Oh GOD, How I NEVER want to see another All Stars again! I just want Mark & Bopper and Gary & Mallory one last time though? ??? :lol:
