Title: TAR 31: Speculation and Discussion of the **SPOILERS** WORKZONE!
Post by: georgiapeach on June 04, 2018, 01:22:26 AM
This thread is the WORKZONE of our spoilers.
 
This is where ALL the spoiler speculation/discussion of the TAR 31 race goes, NOT in the LIVE thread. It is where we try to thrash out what the LIVE sightings mean.

 
 
(If the start is LIVE, then we will use that thread for all sightings Start to Airport Departure.)

ALL Discussion of the LIVE Sightings and comments on them go here!
 
 


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 feel free to PM or email me! Spoilers are treasured!
 
This thread will be opened once the race is beginning.

So, they are off to Tokyo.

Do we think that we could have 2 legs in Japan? One leg in Tokyo and maybe the other in Hiroshima/Nagasaki?

What comes after Japan? Papua New Guinea? And them maybe down to Australia/New Zealand?

I believe that Legs 1-5 could look like this...

1. Tokyo, Japan
2. Hiroshima/Nagasaki, Japan
3. Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea (depending on safety concerns and if production want to take the risk of going there.)
4. Gold Coast, Australia
5. Melbourne, Australia

If teams don't go to Papua New Guinea, then I think Indonesia or New Zealand could be replacement legs!

Their flight landed in Narita just over half an hour ago, now would be a good time to start looking for more sightings

https://flightaware.com/live/flight/AAL169

It generally takes around 30-60 minutes, to clear immigration, baggage claim and custom, at Narita Airport. That might mean, we could get sightings within an hour.

However, this article is from 2011, so I don't know how well updated it is now in 2018

To be exact, Pink Team is standing in front of Reikyou, a Taiwanese restaurant in Shibuya (see here (https://goo.gl/maps/quyw1w6zTXx)).

Looks like they are looking for something in that alley way. Anything that stands out ?

Maybe they were looking for a particular shop, sort of like the TAR 24 leg 1 wedding task

If teams were seen running around Shibuya late in the evening- possibly even getting close to midnight, I would lean towards leg 1 being a Tokyo-night leg.

Even with deplaning and customs teams should still be in Tokyo proper by ~6pm.

4-6 hours seems long enough for a decent full first leg to me.

Is it just me or is there a dearth of live sightings? I remember in recent seasons that this board was hopping non stop with pics and vids. Am I in the wrong thread maybe? It's awfully quiet :D.

Yes, it's more quiet than I would have expected, but there haven't been as many sightings, or at least not easily-findable ones.
That might be due to teams racing later in the day, when it's dark, and Peach suggested that it is common to lose teams in Tokyo (or Japan in general).
I still expect this to be one of the most spoiled seasons ever, as we've got so many teams that have crazy fans looking to track them, lol.

Do you think they are still racing for the first leg? I wonder why there haven't been many sightings. It's kinda unusually slow.

Well we had a post  nearly 12 hours ago of them racing...so I would expect that they have finished leg 1. Probably resting now, hopefully to start soon!

You all can help...watch Twitter and Facebook and IG for Amazing Race mentions...the more of us looking the better!

We don't know if this a one leg in Japan, or if they might go somewhere else in Japan. SO stay looking!

Fair Question! We always have trouble in Tokyo with sightings, India as well. But once they are on the move again we would hope to pick them back up. It is now about 10AM In Tokyo...fair to think they could be on the move again soon!!You can help by joining the team looking on twitter, Facebook, Instagram for Amazing Race mentions. It takes a village!

Crime Threats

The rate of crime in Papua New Guinea is among the highest in the world. Crime rates are highest in/around major cities (Port Moresby, Lae, Madang, Mount Hagen, Goroka), but crimes can occur anywhere.

Travelers should be particularly cautious of pickpocketing threats when in crowded public places, especially the local public markets. Bag-snatchers may try to open doors of automobiles that are stopped or moving slowly in traffic. Sophisticated criminal enterprises also exist, and their capabilities often exceed that of local law enforcement authorities.

U.S. citizens have been victims of violent crime, including gang rape, carjacking, home invasions, kidnappings, and armed robberies.


Westerners may be perceived as wealthy, potentially making them targets of opportunity for criminals. Travel in groups and/or with an experienced guide. Be cautious of displays of wealth and keep valuables out of plain-sight; do not carry anything with you that you are not willing to part with if confronted. Change direction or depart the area if you become apprehensive of suspicious people, groups, or activities. Many of the businesses in Port Moresby have gated parking lots with guards on duty. Carry your cell phone and inform others of your travel plans when possible.

I think productions would do whatever it takes to avoid changing at Singapore today. It’s going to be so messed up if anything happens.

I see Tokyo has flights to KL and Penang, with 2 direct choices to KL (ANA départs earlier and can arrive KL tonight), and if fly to Penang it would need to stop at least once at Hong Kong, Taipei, Singapore or KL, but seems all would not make it before tomorrow morning.

The location the original survivor filmed at IS only 30 miles from Kota Kinabalu

30 miles by boat, which they can charter.

Quote
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiga_Island,_Malaysia

Located 48 km south of Kota Kinabalu and the Tunku Abdul Rahman National Park, Tiga Island National Park is reached by driving the 140 km to Kuala Penyu, a small settlement on the tip of the Klias Peninsula.

From here it is another 18 kilometres (11 miles), or about 30 minutes, by boat. Another way of getting there is by chartering a speed boat from Kota Kinabalu and cruise to Tiga Island, or fly to Labuan and charter a speed boat from Labuan.

Definitely a possibility if they fly from Narita to KL and connect to one of these 2 airports.

There is also opportunity to visit The Australian Outback survivor location.  Borneo had 50M+ finale viewers and Outback avg 30M viewers. Many of the challenges from either location could be retrofitted or duplicated for TAR. Rope courses, puzzles, food eating, and one could hope for a fire-building showdown.  Would also explain the lack of social media spoilers.

I doubt it since the first episode airs June 27th and the houseguests are actually in the house for some time before that.  Speculation is that cast might be going in the house on June 18th.

It would have actually made more sense to have the race start in the BB house if they were to include something from BB in the show.  At least in my opinion!

I doubt the BB House could be used for any tasks or route markers on a final leg because of the 24/7 nature of the BB live feeds, and it would be impossible to have any houseguests avoid any mention of the remaining Racers. CBS wouldn't want to spoil the remaining Racers at that point.
This is also why I'm not sure TAR will try to go the the island of Survivor's first season. TAR had a clear opportunity to do so in Season 4 when they visited Borneo and departed  from the same port mentioned above, but didn't go to that island. But a great task and pit stop at the Orangutan Reserve.

They could use the backyard and have no interactions with the HGs.  It is not uncommon for the HGs to have the BY locked off when a comp is being prepared or be restricted to just the HoH room.  The timing would be real tight though if the BB season is going on so likely not possible more because of that. If racers came in a day earlier or a day later then you might have a conflict with a comp build or something.   It would only work if they knew exactly what day and around what time the racers would be there. 

They could visit the BB Canada house though.   

But to use the BBUS House it would have needed to be near the start.  Start somewhere... go to BB house for some task that determines which of 3 flights you get on then off to airport.

I don't know why it would have an effect on the teams going to that location in Borneo?

It's not like Survivor is filming in that location currently, nor do they have live feeds of what's happening.

Also, with a season containing several Survivor teams, and focusing on a clash of the Reality Shows, now would be the time to go to a location like that, as opposed to a regular season (especially an early season, where the show was trying to have it's own identity separate from Survivor).

Noticed on the running in start photos they were grouped by shows.  Survivor in front, TAR in middle, then Big Brother.

Just speculating, but this would be so Big Brother if at the start there were team color coded identifiers hidden in the sand and once discovered they had to go find the matching identifier on a kite balloon and reel it in to get the clue.  Or vise versa.  Or not. 

Big Brother task start, TAR leg in Tokyo and a Survivor leg would certainly build up the expectation for teams to keep their show group strong.  This would certainly setup Reality Clash pressure and drama for the show editing and promos, especially in the early episodes.  Finish the latter episodes strictly TAR.

I wonder if the timing could be arranged for the Race to arrive at the BB house in time for the beginning of BB 20.

Move in for BB20 is around the 20th of June. I wondered if they could have filmed there before leaving LA already?

I don't know why it would have an effect on the teams going to that location in Borneo?

It's not like Survivor is filming in that location currently, nor do they have live feeds of what's happening.

Also, with a season containing several Survivor teams, and focusing on a clash of the Reality Shows, now would be the time to go to a location like that, as opposed to a regular season (especially an early season, where the show was trying to have it's own identity separate from Survivor).

It would be a good time to go and there is a lot they could do out there in terms of tasks.  Could make where tribal council was the pit stop and if you wanted to be mean have fire making challenge as a head-to-head.  Detour could be something like "fish" or "hunt".   Lot of possibilities.

Just saw this:

Quote
Eid-al-Fitr is a holiday to mark the end of the Islamic month of Ramadan, during which Muslims fast during the hours of daylight.
Hari Raya Puasa Day 1 2018
Friday, June 15, 2018

That could affect transportation. The end of Ramadan is a extremely hard time to travel lots of people on the move. Been there done that myself.

I think it was about this time we had teams stuck in Africa for 24 hours??

There is also opportunity to visit The Australian Outback survivor location.  Borneo had 50M+ finale viewers and Outback avg 30M viewers. Many of the challenges from either location could be retrofitted or duplicated for TAR. Rope courses, puzzles, food eating, and one could hope for a fire-building showdown.  Would also explain the lack of social media spoilers.

If that's the case, then TAR will have a second visit to Outback Australia!

IF teams are actually headed to Malaysia (or at least to Kuala Lumpur International [KUL]), they could really be heading anywhere in Malaysia.

There's plenty of flights to Kota Kinabalu, as well as many other locations.

But I would like to propose another option: Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei

Depending on team departures from leg 1 pit-start, I find it tough to believe that some/any teams could make the 10:20a or 11:20a flight to KUL from NRT, meaning teams were more likely on the 5:20p flight, meaning they would take the next available flight in the morning, leaving at 6:35a

Production could make it there the night before, leaving KUL at 9:35p- plenty of time for them to set up.

Production would have more than enough time for this connection if THEY were able to catch the 10:20a/11:20a flights from Narita.

It's still WAY more likely it's somewhere in Malaysia, but it'd be a cool surprise if they could sneak Brunei in there.

Brunei has quite a lot of red tape.

As for the original Malaysia tweet, I had a look at the user's timeline. Its almost exclusively TAR related content. What if they are watching an episode of the show before they head to Malaysia?? I wouldn't put a lot of faith into it.

Due to safety concerns, U.S. government employees traveling to eastern Sabah east of the North-South line drawn from the cities of Kudat to Tawau, including all islands, must obtain official written permission from the Embassy. The exceptions are the cities of Sandakan, Lahad Datu, Tawau, the Sepolik Nature Reserve, and the Kinabatangan River areas, which require U.S. government employees to officially notify the Embassy prior to travel.

We were all at the Johannesburg Airport for about 36 hours!  Sleeping on the floor at night in an unused waiting lounge of the airport.  Then Frantically buying tickets during the day.  At one point we had about $50,000 in refundable tickets!  They don’t allow this practice anymore that we are aware of.

I reckon it's a rural Malaysia leg in Sabah. Did we get many sightings for S24? Especially if they used Labuan Airport instead of Kota Kinabalu. If this is the case I think we could get Singapore next or maybe even India. As much as i want Australia, it isn't looking good.

Unless they're in Papua New Guinea  :woohoo:, I mean i doubt there would be sightings there.

However annoying that may be, the fewer sightings there are, the better in a way - we might end up with cool countries/locations for those legs.

Try different words maybe. Instead of AMAZING RACE, pick an Airport and check that. Or try backpacks or cameras or filming or Phil. If everyone searched a major airport or city during possible times we might get lucky!

Try a tourist location in a possible country.  Like for example  Eiffel Tower, and search that.

Well, I don't have any proof yet, but the reflection on the right wall looks like a tilting and big windows, and the T3 of Soetta Airport does look like that. Also, there are two holes on the left side that looks like the air conditioning hole on the new terminal... ??? ??? ???

OK, The Amazing Race facebook page posted a pic of a black man who had fallen overboard. The comment is "When sailing in St. Tropez, France, try to remain calm at all times."  The picture said 'Man Overboard' -Elise Doganieri.

Now, I realize this is probably nothing, but you never know when they might sneak in hints...  :duno:

btw The man looked too old to be Floyd, I think... But ya never know.

Hello. The man is Cedric from last season. It's just referencing a previous challenge & doesn't relate to TAR 31.

Hi! New member here :) I think the airport might be the one in Hanoi, Vietnam. I use to teach English in Thailand and spent awhile in that area and the blue glass stood out to me. Quick google search and I found the attached. Could be just a similar style but thought I would point it out.

That looks promising!

Do you know if that's a specific terminal, or is that pretty consistent throughout?

It might help narrow my search in finding the gate they were by.

The store in question looks to be Jalux Duty Free Vietnam

Having trouble downloading/reuploading the picture I found of it, but it looks like it's where the Nasco Duty Free used to be?  Or it got paired with it at random?

But if it is there, it would be by Gates 20-22 in Terminal 2

Figuring out when the photo was taken would help out massively, we could narrow down where they were flying. Right now it's just nice to know that they were (probably) in Hanoi airport, but that could mean they had a leg there, could mean that was a layover, and leaves a lot of options for flights. There are flights from Hanoi to Myanmar, Laos, Australia, Singapore, Cambodia, Philippines, and Thailand among several others.
I tried messaging the twitter account who shared this picture, but haven't got a reply in a few hours and don't expect one anymore.

Thank you SO much Katie!! Bingo!! Note the dark gray pebbled floor match and the lowlying ceiling windows.

Looks like a match to me!

My guess is based on looking relaxed this is a departure and not an arrival.

If we knew the time stats on the photo we could make a better guess re departures. It is daylight so that narrow it slightly.

Of course they are, which is fine. We are reading them. Its all good.

BUT We could get things done much faster if info was fully shared. 

Missing hours means we missed a chance to catch them at next stop, esp if they transited in Singapore for example. Sigh.

Vietnam has had their own version of TAR for several years. If  they ran a leg in Hanoi, there should be sightings from people that recognized what was going on - pairs of foreigners with backpacks followed by cameramen, etc.
Title: Re: TAR 31: Speculation and Discussion of the **SPOILERS** WORKZONE!
Post by: DavidJunior on June 13, 2018, 08:18:13 PM
I’m wondering about that too

It also seems strange that they would POTENTIALLY go down to Malaysia, to land in Vietnam

If the Malaysia lead is indeed true, I’m wondering if it hosted a leg, and Hanoi is the layover from there to Leg 3 (possibly Laos?)

Not sure they want to do one there again after all the negative publicity necessitated a full on CBS apology last time. Or maybe they wanted a second chance..

No way to know now, but cannot rule out a transit either.

Or maybe they needed an OX. :funny:

Post by: tarbbsurvivor on June 13, 2018, 09:32:37 PM
They could have also possibly had a second leg in Japan which would make sense for the lack of sightings since Japan is known for being hard to spot, and then be using Hanoi as a transfer. Two transfers that made the most logical sense to me looking at flights is
Vietnam Airlines flight 311 departing Tokyo Narita at 10am and getting into Hanoi at 1:30pm or ANA flight 857 departing Tokyo Haneda at 8:50am and getting into Hanoi at 12:25pm
This would match the sighting in the airport as it was more than twelve hours ago and it was light outside in the picture, and Leo was holding a Japanese water bottle that maybe he bought in Japan that morning  :duno:
Now obviously where they could be going is wide open but connections that made sense to me because there is no direct option from Tokyo to these cities were
Vietnam Airlines flight 837 leaving Hanoi at 3:25pm and arriving in Siem Reap, Cambodia at 5:10pm or
Lao Airlines flight 312 leaving Hanoi at 4:40pm and arriving at Vientiane, Laos at 5:50pm
(there is also a flight from Hanoi direct to Siem Reap getting in at 7pm)
This could possibly set up an HOO which would again explain lack of sightings and them being released around right now. This is just pure speculation of course!

I wouldn't hate that, honestly.  I liked Korey, but Tyler was way too much a lot of the time.  It was like he couldn't stop being "on" all the time.

Well, I don’t know if direct proof is needed for spec.

I mean, we’ve been following a lead based of one cryptic tweet saying “teams are heading to Malaysia next”

There was also a very good point brought up by the Japanese brand water bottle

Now, they COULD have bought it during/after leg 1, and kept it as a makeshift reusable bottle going forward through multiple destinations in multiple countries- or they could’ve bought it that morning (in Japan)

The water bottle is an interesting find- we should at least consider the possibility of 2 Japan legs

Hard to believe given their < 3.00 placement average - in fact, it's the Afghanimals and Rachel (with Elissa) who would be the most in danger as the weakest of the TAR returnees.

I have problems with some of this.
The original airport gate photo showed a gate number 9 with the storefront opposite it. Is that also the Hanoi airport? I'm concerned things may have gone off on a tangent and something may have been missed.
I'm also concerned about the shared tweet about ten teams seen as it is without a time or place context that could be cross-checked and vetted.
I fully realize that much of the social media in east and southeast Asia is not primary English speakers and that much of it is in the various Asian languages of the region. We've had planted false leads in the past and I think we need to be extra-careful.

IMPORTANT! If you find anything posted by someone working in any capacity for the race or by production, do NOT post it here, you can cost someone their job...or worse. Let me or one of the Detectives know, and we'll see if it can be shared. Thanks!


THE RULES ABOUT NO PRODUCTION INFO EVER AND NO FUTURE LEG INFO STILL APPLY!

How do you even find someone in unnamed Asian country that would recognize all 11 teams? I doubt they have even seen BB over there.

Agree that it was probably a leak from production, in which case, why didn't the witness just say Art & JJ were eliminated instead of saying they only saw 10 teams and not Art &JJ?

This seems like last season when partially revealed text messages kept claiming that Cody & Jessica won just about every leg. This new sighting may well be true, but I'll be awaiting more confirmation.

I am currently travelling around Asia and would love to keep my eyes peeled for teams/take photos if we get any potential location leads. I’m in Hanoi right now, but I am hesitant to believe they are doing a leg here due to violent protests that just broke out in Hanoi and the south in the past couple days.

Post by: Neobie on June 14, 2018, 06:09:54 AM
I think it's likely we're headed to Laos or Cambodia!

1. Vietnam is unlikely to have hosted a leg; Leo/Jamal are probably on transit in Hanoi.
@JessicaCodyBB19 reposted the photo of Leo/Jamal in Hanoi at 12:26am on 14 Jun, meaning it was taken no later than sunset on 13 Jun, at 6:30pm.
For Leo/Jamal to have completed a leg in Vietnam by then, they would have had to:
(i) arrive in Tokyo at 3:55pm on 11 Jun, taking 1h+ to get downtown, and checking in to the Pit Stop earliest at around 7pm;
(ii) have a ~12h Pit Stop in Tokyo, flying to Hanoi on 12 Jun, taking 40min to get downtown, and checking in to the Pit Stop earliest at around 4pm;
(iii) have a ~24h Pit Stop in Hanoi, and leaving on 13 Jun to be sighted at Noi Bai Airport.
This is an incredibly rushed schedule. In recent seasons, the first Pit Stops lasted ~21h (TAR27, Rio de Janeiro), ~29h (TAR28, Mexico City), ~34h (TAR29, Panama City), and ~17h (TAR30, Reykjavík), and there has always been a calendar day's gap between Legs 1 and 2.

2. There are very few destinations where Hanoi is a logical connection stop.
There are flights from Hanoi to 10 other Southeast Asian destinations. For most destinations, there are multiple better itineraries from Tokyo, so we can discount Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Yangon, Manila, and Phnom Penh. It's also ridiculously unlikely Hanoi would be a logical connection in a two-stop layover scenario.

3. That leaves us with: Vientiane, Luang Prabang, and Siem Reap as possible candidates.
The following work for a sighting on both 12 Jun or 13 Jun:
VN311 from Tokyo Narita to Hanoi, 1000-1330, then:
VN837 from Hanoi to Siem Reap, 1525-1710;
QV312 from Hanoi to Vientiane, 1640-1750; or
QV314 from Hanoi to Luang Prabang, 1910-2030.

Yeah I'd have to agree. Vietnam Airlines isn't a massive airline so I doubt they're flying to a place like Malaysia or Singapore. Cambodia or Laos seem to be the ideal destinations. Lets hope for the latter but I think I'd still be happy with Cambodia.

The logical example that teams have headed to Laos between June 12-13

If Vientiane is possibility for a candidate destination:

Vietnam Airlines (VN) 311 from Tokyo-Narita to Hanoi, 0952-1320 (scheduled 1000-1330)
Lao Airlines (QV) 312 from Hanoi to Vientiane, 1659-1749 (scheduled 1640-1750)

Thai Airways (TG) 641 from Tokyo-Narita to Bangkok-Suvarnabhumi, 1052-1544 (scheduled 1050-1520)
Thai Airways (TG) 574 from Bangkok-Suvarnabhumi to Vientiane, 1833-1949 (scheduled 1835-1945)

It's been 4 days since filming. If they had longer Pit Stops, then 2 legs is reasonable.

It's either Leg 2 or 3, though :)

No, like the time during the pitstop was longer- like ~24-36 hours, instead of the typical 12 hours

^ TBC means the opposite, those legs have no Pit Stop. Possible, but not likely in this case, I'd say. Based on what Neobie said, leg 3 might feel like they're rushing it, so I would say we're only on leg 2 right now. That would also explain the lack of sightings, I think we would have at least got SOMETHING if there was a second leg somewhere, be it Japan, Malaysia, or other.

I am not convinced they are in Vang Vieng. I think they are in Luang Prabang. If you look at the buildings, the building in the picture looks way more fitting for Luang Prabang then Vang Vieng and also according to the production leak (you can edit this out Peach, if you don’t want it brought up again) that photo was taken at the Elephant Village which is in Luang Prabang. The person who posted on her story also just arrived in Vang Vieng from Luang Prabang so maybe she was posting it a little later. Or they could always be visiting both cities   :duno:

For anyone who is confused, here's a rough timeline of info we have so far:

(6-10) Race starts at Hermosa Beach; teams spotted at LAX, headed for Tokyo-Narita
(6-11) Teams arrive at Tokyo in late afternoon; team spotted in Shibuya later that night
(6-12) No sightings
(6-13) Team spotted at Hanoi International Airport at departure terminal- possibly afternoon/early evening
(6-14) Crew spotted in Luang Prabang, Laos

At this point, it seems tight to fit another leg in, especially in another country (Malaysia/Vietnam).  Outside chance of a second Japan leg.

IMO, most likely extended pit stop after leg 1, and the sightings from today are of leg 2

Can't we have a 12-hr pitstop for leg 1 and a short leg 2 in Japan on 12/6. Then another relative short pitstop to allow teams depart mid-day on 13/6 for leg 3 through a transit in Hanoi, with an late-night arrival in Laos, followed by a HOO and start the actual racing of leg 3 on 14/6?

Maybe the start of leg 2 was similar to Tar26. Teams could've been released on the evening of the 12th the had to overnight at Narita to take a morning flight to Hanoi. Maybe the pitstop wasn't in Tokyo? It could've been in a rural area in a neaby province or even Yokohama? Then teams most likely had an HOO in Luang Prabang.

There's one element that should be noted re length of pit stop at the end of the first leg.

Production (and Phil would have to get ahead of the teams prior to starting the second leg. Flights to places such as Laos would likely require an extended pit stop of 24 to 36 hours to get production on its way.

And yes, Laos has been one of those countries that has been on the top of wishlists for seasons and seasons, just like Nepal and Burma/Myanmar have been.

Victor, Janelle, Eliza, and Rachel are strong competitors but their partners are a question mark.

What happened to innocent until proven guilty? lol
This is not a criminal trial, so that standard does not apply.

This site seeks to verify all information relevant to the Race while it is filming, and thereafter. People have tried in the past to get false sightings through, and that is one reason why everything has to be vetted. And even then, something could be missed.
More often it's identifying that season's Racers, but the twist made that part easy. But the westward start to Asia is always problematic with sightings and extra diligence has to be taken to make sure the information is correct, that images are properly credited, and  sensitive material is not posted.

There's not much I can do during filming except draw on my experiences where TAR is concerned going back to the beginning, and apply reasoning to be sure avenues are not overlooked. So that is what I do.

For what its worth, I don't expect the teams to leave Laos using the same connection they came in on; just a gut feeling it would require multiple connections to go elsewhere through Hanoi.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BkBo73aBv-U/?tagged=theamazingrace

100% Yes. It's them.
I think that the blue shirt is Art/JJ not Bret because Art & JJ were wearing blue at the starting line and Bret & Chris were wearing green. Of course Bret could've changed shirts, but the teams generally stick with one color to identify them throughout the season.

So we can solidly say that Rupert & Laura, Team Fun, and one of Art & JJ/Bret & Chris made it to leg 2/3?

As you said they could’ve very easily changed their shirts. Leo & Jamal were both wearing Burgundy shirts on the starting day but in that photo at Noi Bai, Jamal was wearing a green shirt and Leo was wearing a Grey shirt.

Side by side. Doesn't match Art & JJ, but doesn't match anyone else in particular either. I say we can only say with certainty that Team Fun and Rupert & Laura made it.

We have waited a long time for LAOS, so 2 legs would be lovely.

Comparing to a group start photo and based on skin tone, the blue t-shirt rider may be Chris??  This guy could be wearing a ball cap (just to note going forward).  Both Rupert and this rider appear to be balancing a tray of some sort.  There are people watching from the upper part of a hut but can't make out anything other than 3/4 length green t-shirt, so could be anyone.

Shocker, but if you check Rupert's instagram, he sometimes doesn't wear tie-dye! *Gasps*

Yes, but teams wear the same clothes/colors as they do when they start the race! :)

He hardly packed 8 tie-dye singlets, nor would he wear a tie-dye jacket if the race went to the Swiss Alps
But it's summer unless they go to the artic

Look at that blue shirt Colin is wearing in the market.    :funny:

I considered Colin for wearing the blue shirt riding on the elephant, but the sleeve length fit Chris better showing more bicep.  Also considered Korey in Rupert's spot but could not get enough resolution to determine if the rider had tatts.  Is Korey's hair really that long?

Edit to add: just looked at start photos again.  Korey has a buzz cut - not longer wavy hair.

Very confusing... But it makes sense to me that Korey has short hair while in that picture, the racer sports long hair so I guess the beard looks real to me. In other words, the racer in that picture could be Rupert.

If they're not staying in Laos a second leg, it'll probably be another gap if the country was that difficult to get into in the first place.

I'd guess there'll be a KOR at some point this season to compensate some time for this. As Phil always says, "12 shows, 21 days" (or close to that)

In that pic, the Green Team you're referring to has one of them with pale skin and both of them are brunettes. Maybe that's Corinne since she has pale skin and both of them are brunettes and somehow have wavy hairs. OR maybe that's Rachel, as she have pale skin and also they're brunettes. so which one of these is true?

They were the 2nd team the person that took the photo saw. Depending on how long the person taking the photo was there, they could've been at any placement at the point, and even if they were in 2nd, anything could've happened between there and the pit stop or anything could've happened in Laos.

It's just they havent been spotted since Sibuya. I hope they survived Japan and Leg 2

In the past, there have been teams who haven't been spotted since Leg 2, but reappear 3-6 legs later. Its possible, so don't be down yet!

It's also the same as Alex & Conor from previous season. They were thought to be gone in earlier legs but reappeared after being seen in Leg 9 Bahrain! quite surprising though.

I think we might get India next. If it's the middle east I doubt it would be the gulf states (Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain) but it could be Oman, Jordan or maybe Israel. Africa is possible however it wouldn't suprise me if they skipped it this season as we've had a lot of Africa recently. Ghana would be nice.

They need one more leg in SE Asia tbh. I wouldn't mind a culturally involving leg in China or even the Philippines, but tbh I agree with Claude, Indonesia wouldn't be too bad.

If they do visit India, either NE India [NE India is like what happens when you cross Bangladesh with SE Asia] or Mumbai. Mumbai would make for a chaotic city leg, but I assume they've already had a chaotic city leg in Tokyo, so I'm leaning more towards NE India.

Going back up north to East Asia or going to another SE Asian country wouldn't make sense, to me. I think they are going to either South Asia or Middle East. My bet is Middle East.

Hopefully Australia tho lol. I'm tired of Middle East and even Africa. I can't believe it's been 13 seasons since they visited Australia. I love the Sydney leg in Unfinished Business.

I doubt they'll visit Thailand, when they just did Chiang Mai last season. Plus, Bangkok and Phuket were covered in 26, so I Thailand has a relatively less probability, I feel.

Gotta say, that bandage on Colin's head has me even more curious now about if he's still as reckless as he was 14 years ago :D Besides My Ox is Broken, of course, this is also the guy who almost got arrested refusing to pay a taxi.

But now that they're married with kids, I'd imagine they've mellowed somewhat.

Rupert has been spot for leg 2 task and Afghanimals have been spotted in Hanoi, leaving Art and JJ as the first boot.

Hey all!

Those red airport seats look like these: https://www.arconas.com/fr/news/los-cabos-new-airport-seating/

At Los Cabos.
There is no way for them to be in Mexico  :duno:
Should be small airport in SE Asia, maybe the ones in Laos?

I think the photos of Rachel/Elissa and Colin/Christie we got last night were from the start of leg 4, they were just getting ready to go to the airport. So they already wrapped up 3 legs now (either 3 teams eliminated or 2 teams eliminated and 1 saved by NEL, prob the former. Leg 4 is where we need a first NEL lol). They are probably on the plan right now flying to the Leg 4 location, or already arrived. It's night time in Asia.

I think they are not arriving at the destination
From what we have seen in the pic with Eliza, it seems they are in a small airport
I am speculating they are going to a bigger airport like Bangkok and then transit to the final destination city

The only thing that makes me think its Leg 4 is the absents of Rupert and Laura and Leo and Jamal in the photo, but one of them could either be really behind or really ahead or just didn't want to take a photo.

They are allegedly departing to a new country and I don't think they were in Luang Prabang for only 1 leg tho. Plus it's been almost a week since starting line and it's weird if they spent that amount of time for 2 legs only. I think we are already at leg 4 now. But CMIIW if there's new info.

Long shot but could they be connecting to Siemp Reap, Cambodia to visit another Cambodian city
Kaoh Rong, Sihanoukville??? But I do not see them visiting a country in the same region when they've just visited Laos. I highly doubt it. Unless they want to pattern it with the Armenia-Georgia combo of S.28

Now is when things are about to get interesting and cutthroat. The first three legs they were prob all kumbaya. Now that most of the teams left in the race are those that fans like, there's a big chance we are going to lose big names next. And U Turn soon. Hopefully leg 4 is a NEL tho, just in case Janelle/Rachel/Eliza/Colin arrive last.

Must be Luang Prabang airport, before they flew to SR. Taken about 12 hours ago (see Colin's scar on his forehead)

no you're right it is Luang Prabang; checked flightstats for LPQ-REP: https://www.flightstats.com/v2/flight-tracker/route/LPQ/REP?year=2018&month=6&date=16&hour=12

and the flight left at 2:40 pm so they couldn't be in Siem Reap at 1:51 pm (plus the railings on top match the design of the airport, so this must be around the time they were boarding the airplane?)

I predict that they should spend at least 4 legs in Asia, 6 legs in Europe, and 2 legs anywhere else.

Still holding out hope for Australia. 6 legs in Europe is too many and I'm tired of Middle East and Africa.

10 elephants were used in Leg 2 roadblock, which indicated one team had been eliminated, likely in Tokyo, Leg 1.   Because Art & JJ were not seen in Laos, it was assumed they were the losing team.

HCMC may well be a connection, with teams having to stay overnight to catch flights to the next destination. That would also facilitate getting production ahead of the teams for the next leg.
As to eliminations via spoiler, unless there's photographic evidence of a team on the pit stop mat being eliminated, it is speculation at this point and i wish it is phrased that way. And let me add, assumptions are dangerous, they can lead to wring conclusions.

It seems odd to have teams fly out of Siem Reap then HCMC to a destination, when there are larger airports to make connections too. Seems like HCMC is a leg....

As I suggested production may be trying to get ahead of the teams after Laos, but we don't know that there's a leg in HCMC. This routing seems more to be a consequence of getting to Laos than anything else. All I'm saying is I don't think we can assume there's a leg in HCMC with a late night arrival, and it's just as likely a connection for an a.m. flight.

Regarding the pictures of Rachel/Elissa and Colin/Christie looking in a shop.
Are we sure that was a task? or it could just be the start of the leg, and them asking for direction/buying food before going.

It would make sense to have 2 legs in Laos. So maybe they had a quick leg in the same city that ended with a KOR finish? Like Leg 3 is Laos KOR, and then leg 4 is HCMC?

Not sure why we're looking at flights to other locations. Our BB friends have nailed it - HCMC it is.

David my understanding was the marketplace was on 6/14, but in hindsight realised I may have interpreted that post wrong. Will need to reconfirm. If 6/15 is correct then we have two Luang Prabang legs. Otherwise right now I'm not sure whether HCMC is leg 3 or 4.

I am quite bothered that they have already Luang Prabang. I am only going there tonight. :groan:

The funny thing was that I had this gut feeling that they would visit Laos this time, but I was in the wrong city.

I believe the Roadblock Extreme is a tool used to force both members of the team to do the Raodblock. I think that the second person who does the Roadblock isn’t included in the Roadblock count.

It’s actally where they have to do the Roadblock under more arduous conditions or to a higher level of completion.

Leg 1: Tokyo, Japan
Leg 2: Luang Prabang, Laos
Leg 3: Luang Prabang, Laos
Leg 4: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

There's a nice direct flight from HCMC to Melbourne...........

Well if it's leg 3, then we either had a double elimination one leg or one team just missing when the group picture was taken.

I believe the Roadblock Extreme is a tool used to force both members of the team to do the Raodblock. I think that the second person who does the Roadblock isn’t included in the Roadblock count.

It’s actally where they have to do the Roadblock under more arduous conditions or to a higher level of completion.

So, one example would be in S30, the Roadblock in Hong Kong, where they have to smash electronics: Let’s say that Kristi & Jen were on the board for Roadblock Extreme, then basically Kristi would have to smash two pairs of electronics?? Is that what it means?

Hey all!

Those red airport seats look like these: https://www.arconas.com/fr/news/los-cabos-new-airport-seating/

At Los Cabos.
There is no way for them to be in Mexico  :duno:
Should be small airport in SE Asia, maybe the ones in Laos?

Maybe Siem Reap in Cambodia then? They have the same style seats installed.

Catching up! Great job to you all!

But what I find very interesting is that no one has even proposed that perhaps 8 teams seen were only 8 of 9?

Someone could have been on a different flight perhaps? Or maybe in the bathroom?

I have no info either way...but as  Detectives we need to consider ALL the options not just the obvious.

This could easily be the remaining teams, don't get me wrong.

But since we do not KNOW that we have to look at EVERY option, not only the obvious. It would be really nice if we could get more info from the photographer, then we could be surer in # of legs.

The sightings of teams in the AM in Luang seems unhurried...almost like they were just shopping.

If there's a leg between Tokyo and Luang Prabang, it makes sense. But if that is just a transit, then maybe three teams were already eliminated in the first three legs?

However, if one of the legs is NEL, it makes sense that one of the three teams is safe. Maybe that team is still doing a task in Leg 3 OR is still looking for a flight schedule OR is in a CR ( comfort room) and all 8 teams are already on flight to HCMC, leaving the last one behind?

I am saying a KOR at the end of leg 3 and teams have known they would be bunched on the flight to thr leg 4 destination. That would account for the fact that they were unhurried (Colin and Christie doing some shopping for food)

I am leaning 3 legs done by Laos because of the day numbers (6 days since the starting line). If a KOR was in play for leg 3, we are probably missing 1 team, either because that team doing well enough to bypass the bunching, or they lagged behind poorly and missed the flight to Siem Remp (thus not appearing on the photo)

I wonder if they could have taken a car, train, taxi or boat to another city or isle outside of Ho Chi Minh?  But still weird they haven't been spotted at the airport, which, if they weren't doing 2 legs there, they would have flown out by now. But there is potential danger in Ho Chi Minh with protests and the like. It might be possible they are hold up in a hotel somewhere until its a bit safer?  :duno:

During the Race's first visit to HCMC in TAR 3, they spent 1 leg outside of HCMC in the Mekong River Delta area South and East of the city. And IIRC, ATWFF, in either Alex Boylan's first season or Jeff Schroeder's second season, spent time along the coast. So it's entirely possible something like that is happening this time.

I searched for the main destinations/attractions in HCMC that they could have possibly visited (chu chi tunnels, ben thanh market, saigon square, pham ngu lao/district 1, airport) on instagram and still no sightings. I wonder where in HCMC they were/are and why people haven't spotted them there.

I wonder if they could have taken a car, train, taxi or boat to another city or isle outside of Ho Chi Minh?  But still weird they haven't been spotted at the airport, which, if they weren't doing 2 legs there, they would have flown out by now. But there is potential danger in Ho Chi Minh with protests and the like. It might be possible they are hold up in a hotel somewhere until its a bit safer?  :duno:

Im quite surprised that production still decided to do a leg in HCMC though - seems like the protests are pretty serious and have been happening before teams even arrived there

i agree! I wonder if they have plan B's for such hiccups? Peach said earlier it was confirmed there was a leg in HCMC, but not sure how she knows. Hope she shares it with us soon! I saw a tweet that said the teams were having Visas checked when they arrived in HCMC from Siam Reap. Does that mean they were staying there or do they have to have the Visa's checked to go somewhere else? Could HCMC have been a layover/transit like Siam Reap was?

Go to the live sightings thread, I believe it was a Rachel and Elissa fan account that reported a team exchanged the US Dollar for Dong and said something about their next clue being in HCMC.

There you have it, HCMC confirmed as a leg.

They must have already wrapped up leg 4 there by now, right? And they are probably leaving Asia right now.

God i don't want to know who got eliminated in HCMC, I'm scared lol. if one of the elite teams arrived last, i hope it was a non-elim.

At least there could be a visit in Africa. Particularly South Africa. The race has a flight to Joburg via Singapore.

It would especially help if those who speak and read the languages of east and southeast Asia could check social media in those languages as well. I suspect that's part of the problem....and this is a region where original TAR and many regional versions have raced over the years.

I guess I'm a seasoned hunter by this point. If it's any consolation, what you're describing in your search strategy is about 98% of what I'm doing. I'm not finding much that hasn't already been found by others. It seems that so far, Facebook and Instagram have been the best places to look.

You can't glance. You have to pick a term and search back 8-12 hours to get anything. And on twitter esp having TAR Canada starting and Fans commenting about teams there is lots of junk.. Shake up your terms, use locations, Phil, cameras, airports we suspect, and this season we have NAMEs. The key is to stick with it. And be lucky...you could search and just miss something.

I rely on all of you for IG because it hates me. :funny:

Set up a buddy group, then 3 or 4 you can work together.

Maybe what we also need is common word list we'd look for on social media in the various languages/alphabets that are encountered during filming.
I recall in the early seasons, we'd find news articles published in non-American newspapers that were in fact spoilers. (The earliest example of this I can remember was during filming of season 4 in the Netherlands, as it turned out it was half of a detour that Reichen and Chip performed. And the article was in Dutch) It's the sort of thing I think we may be overlooking, but I am not competent enough to do such non-English language searches on social media or even still, search engines.

Production can be very nimble with last minute changes. The Hungary leg(s) in TAR 6, the Rio leg in TAR 2, and the Phuket leg that reportedly replaced the planned Laos leg(s) in TAR 19, are just three examples. The first two are more pertinent here though, and tasks can be relocated to other areas of the city.

Well, according to a gal that took the video of Rachel and Elissa boarding a train, she said one of teams said they were going to look for a clue in HCMC and they were trying to exchange their US $$$ to Dong. She also said there was a TAR producer outside when the informant was hailing a cab.  So I think they fully intended to stay in HCMC.  But I suppose they could have been told to either fly to somewhere else or take a train/cab to another city in Vietnam. Totally possible since we haven't seen the teams in a couple days!

Actually, that's not true. TAR has aired on AXN in much of Asia throughout its run, there are/have been various regional versions for at least a decade (check Wikipedia), and some of the most spoiled legs have been in Asia over that time.

My guess is similar to yours but opposite in some ways maybe it was a foot race first and Team Ox (Colin and Christy) or Vic  and nic came in first and started one minute away from each other

Remember the pictures of Phil and the greeter at the temple posted a couple of days ago? That was the apparent pit stop for the second leg. Then Peach gave us a live start feed about the start of leg 3. Siem Reap was the following day. So it is fair to assume 2 legs in Laos, and now a leg in HCMC. Could the Monday pic be for a second HCMC leg? Possible. Or teams were at the airport when they were encountered in that Monday Instagram pic posted a couple of hours ago. (IIRC, in Vietnam, teams have to get tickets through a travel agency, or at least that's been the case in prior seasons going back to season 3.)

Could we don't have a second Laos leg? ???

What if teams went straight from Laos to HCMC last leg... Leg 3?

And that might Leg 4 will start today!

Mostly said there are having 2 legs in Laos and the HCMC leg is at Leg 4.

The picture looks like it was taken outside of the centre of HCM. I'm Vietnamese and I've been asking my friends who also love TAR and know most of the cast to look for them since they got to Vietnam and they havent seen anything. Maybe they had a night leg or they went outside of the centre. Such a shame I just left Vietnam to go to Canada or  I would defenitely track them down for a whole day :(. It might be Cu Chi, Nha Be, Can Gio, Hooc Mon where the picture was taken

Now totally makes sense they probably took the picture waiting for the bus mid leg. Since you can hear someone I think a producer saying “before the bus comes through what is coming up next” then cue the picture on the bus.
And yay for Becca being spotted.

It is 440 pm their time now. Missy posted the pics at 244 pm their time so was taken earlier, perhaps even at her first sighting.

So far I see NO evidence for two legs in HCMC, just slow info now coming out.

I am thinking Leg 4 happened yesterday with teams arrived in HCMC last Saturday night Vietnam time (which is 11 hours ahead of Eastern Time). I also think the Insta stories are uploaded earlier today. As so, I assume that could be having an extended Pit stop between Leg 4 and Leg 5.

I speculate 2 legs in vietnam and then we could see them head to africa... We saw vietnam to africa in 22. Especially its so easy to connect through singapore and dubai to the rest of the world.

Is there still a chance for malaysia or papua new guinea or have we crossed them off the list?

They've spent all the legs thus far in fairly the same region, so I don't think they would now backtrack to go somewhere like PNG/Malaysia or Oceania, which was talked about a lot a couple pages back for some reason.

Copyedit: Does the third leg contained the first part on a Marketplace at Sissavangvong Road in Luang Prabang on June 16th, while the rest at HCMC for the remainder of the leg that teams arrived on the same night?

I think it is a similar to Leg 9 in TAR 29 and early TAR seasons.

I've been to all SE Asian countries. Laos is more similar to Myanmar and Cambodia (the three are the poorest countries in the region). Vietnam has a China/Oriental vibe to it. And it's very crowded and busy there. Laos is pretty laid back.

But yeah, i kinda agree, I wish they'd gone somewhere else instead of staying in Asia. They could have picked Indonesia again and visited rural Papua or South Sula Wesi (they are very very different from Bali and Java). Maybe it's a budget thing.

The slight problem (not unsurmountable) with just one leg in Laos is the group photo, which has three teams missing.
Is one team too far ahead? Too far behind? You can easily get from Luang Prabang to Ho Chi Minh City via Bangkok.

FWIW, I suspect Neobie original timeline is closer to the truth, but I suspect the sighted pitstop photo with Phil and of the greeter at the temple may have been for the first Laotian leg, but I agree with there being two legs in Laos, and two in NCMC, even if some of them were short in actual duration.

I could see this because I do think there's a very long flight with connections ahead at some point in the Race, and to keep filming within their desired 21-23 day length, there was going to have to be some short in time duration legs to make up for it.
So I think when the teams and Phil leave Vietnam, it will be for Leg 6.

* 2- 3 Legs of Europe?

If it's 5 Legs between Japan, Laos and Vietnam, they won't visit any more countries in Asia (especially as people are apparently having a fit over the route we might have so far) and 99% won't backtrack to Australia or NZ. They'll be moving west now.

Nice catch! Didn't even cross my mind but now seems plausible, actually.
I was thinking why were Vicole & Colin/Christie spotted together so many times, so that would be an excellent explanation. But they were also on a bus together with TeamFun, was anybody else there to warrant an actual partner swap?

Are we sure it’s 2 legs in Laos?

If Mount Phousi was the pitstop on what we think is Leg 2- Phil seen 6/14- and teams were spotted right by it on 6/16- wouldn’t it be more likely that what we saw on the 16th be them leaving the pit start for leg 3?

I’m sure it’s happened in the past, but I find it odd for the race to circle to the same area of town on two separate legs

* 5- (6?) Legs of Asia - Japan, Laos, Vietnam, Another SE country ( Be it Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, East Timor? )
* 2- 3 Legs of Europe?

Choosing one of the SA, CA, & AF countries:
2 Legs of Central America or 2 Legs of South America or 2 Legs of Africa?

Check the Timeline thread that Leg 3 could be a duo of Laos (first half) and Vietnam (second half) at that would be likely 4 legs in Asia.

Assuming that would give two Africa legs and a penultimate leg in South America.

The destination route should look this: Asia > Africa > Europe > Africa > South America > North America ( USA )

Are we sure it’s 2 legs in Laos?

If Mount Phousi was the pitstop on what we think is Leg 2- Phil seen 6/14- and teams were spotted right by it on 6/16- wouldn’t it be more likely that what we saw on the 16th be them leaving the pit start for leg 3?

I’m sure it’s happened in the past, but I find it odd for the race to circle to the same area of town on two separate legs

I think the main reason people are speculating 2 legs in Laos is because 8 teams were spotted in Siem Reap.

But like it was mentioned, there are THOUSANDS of reasons one team could be missing:
- There wanted a coffee
-They were busy buying food/book/guides
- They were at the bathroom
- They didn't want to be in the picture, etc...

If we don't ever see Rupert/Laura and the Afghanimals, then maybe that was really our final 8, but it's not 100%

I'm concerned for the FF teams. No sightings of them in HCMC.
Victor and Nicole seemed like they were doing well judging by the pics and vids so I hope Bret/Chris fell behind. (And it's not even 100% confirmed that Afghanimals got eliminated in Laos. I'm still waiting for confirmation)

THIS IS SPECULATION ON SPOILERS>

Not a thread about who you want to go or stay or where you want them to go next.

This is the workzone where we Try to piece the puzzle together and y'all are cluttering things up.

SO if you are NOT actively working on evaluating the info you are in the wrong thread. Use bitch and moan instead for your own wants?

Post by: dryedmangoez on June 18, 2018, 11:10:07 PM
That's definitely an interesting possibility. Because on recent TAR seasons, I think more often than not, all teams will likely be on the same flight to the next country. No longer the days of teams on a bunch of different flights, grabbing any flight they can.

So if there aren't any other teams around, I think it's a reasonable possibility that they might be flying to sequester instead.

There could be various reasons for the earlier Tyler sighting, such as release times from the pit stop and they all end of on the same flight. Who knows?

Same as to whether Thailand gets a leg or, or that Bangkok is a connection. Who knows?

There might be another team in front - blue backpacks. Not sure about the team backpacks

The backpack that seems to look most like the one boarding the flight in the recent picture is Janelle's or Britney's -- they have the same one in LAX pictures.

To the right of the girl w/ ponytail in plaid, there is what looks to be a shorter person that might have the same plaid shirt but wrapped around their waist as the arm looks to be hanging down the leg.  Corrine and Eliza?  However, doesn't seem to have a backpack.

So, the latest pic, i can see the scar on Colin's forehead so it was def taken after Laos, but can anyone translate? Are we sure it was today at HCMC airport?

So these teams made it out of vietnam/leg5:
-Team Fun
-Tyler/Korey
-Britney/Janelle
-Colin/Christie
-Victor/Britney

I have to assume one of the legs in Vietnam is a NEL and only one team was eliminated there. So it's between Eliza/Corinne, Rachel/Elissa, and Bret/Chris. We havent gotten any sightings of them yet since Siem Reap.

EDIT: i just looked at the pic of people boarding the flight again, and i cant be 100% sure its Britney near the stairs, because her and Nicole's backpacks look very similar.

We need to wait until new sightings in Dubai to be sure. The pic of Tyler/Korey was taken way ahead of the other teams pics, someone pointed out that maybe Tyler/Oakley were eliminated and departing to the sequester.

Hi guys—first time poster here. I'm a friend of Eliza, so maybe this is wishful thinking, but I thought I recognized Eliza's pink hat above Floyd's shoulder in mish_hay's Instastory. For comparison's sake, here's a definitive shot of the back of her hat from the Jess&CodyArmy sighting at the Siem Reap airport.

Sure it's a common hat so it could be someone outside of the race (though unlikely producers would allow another racer to have the same hat), and sure someone else could be wearing Eliza's hat if she gave it to them, but I'm just trying to keep hope alive for my girl!

we can move Eliza/Corinne up to "not 100% sure"

So now it's between Rachel/Elissa and Bret/Chris re: who got eliminated in HCMC (this is assuming one of the legs there a NEL. If Afghanimals indeed have been out since Laos and two teams were eliminated in Vietnam, then we're down to 6 teams, but it's kinda too early to have so few people with 6/7 legs left)

The only team we are 100% positive is going to Dubai is Team Fun.

Colin/Christie, Victor/Nicole, Janelle/Britney too

The questions:
Is the pink hat really Eliza?
When Tyler took that picture with that girl, why was he so ahead of the other teams? Was he departing to Dubai or the sequester?
Where are Rachel/Elissa and Brett/Chris?
Did the Afghanimals really get a boot in Laos? Or was the person sitting on the bus in red t-shirt one of them?

Do we have confirmation for Dubai, or is it just transit?  It's such a major hub for flight to Africa (as well as the islands like Maldives/Seychelles, etc) and the middle east.  And so we know what airline they were boarding?  I can post flight options if we have any guidance.

Looks like the gray backpack has a white side stripe and white extended pouch which would match Nicole.  The guy in gray jeans with the dark backpack just might be Victor since he carries a very dark blue/black pack.  Just pass this guys right shoulder is a passenger with lighter hair wearing a black tank similar to Tyler plus wearing black tennis shoes with while trim, and Korey just might be the person next to his right.

Yes, but I have seen all the teams in other colors besides their designated ones. Not sure if its on purpose to throw people off. Besides it's easy the throw on another shirt, especially guys. I dunno. But the dark hair/beard, the fullness of the beard, the bumpy knees, just looks more like Vic than the others guys, to me at least.

I have a question I guess it would help determine who’s the mystery red shirt guy. My question does Production also carry backpacks because the backpack in front of the red shirt guy, if it’s his and not Production it could be Korey? Tyler’s backpack (I’m assuming Korey has the same) has a grey line on the straps while both Jamal & Leo backpack strap are solid black.

another Q also because at this point we can't safely rule anyone out yet because we don't know how many legs there's been: are we sure that Art & JJ didn't make it to Laos or is it just an assumption because we spotted the other 10 already?

also:

The Nicole/Vic and Colin/Christy pic says it was taken in Vietnam airport.  Then said that Sue said they were going to Dubai.   So, they may have taken direct flight.    The Team Fun, Brittany/Janelle, and possible other teams, took VietAir Jet to Bangkok based on info/pic from mish_hay.  And then it's assumed went to Dubai, if I'm following the info correctly.

And Colin & Christie's second time. Same for Afghanimals if they are still in somehow

Afghanimals did visit U.A.E. but in different places which were Abu Dhabi and Al Ain.

But didnt fly into Dubai and visit the Grand Mosque?

Either is possible. There's no information yet. And let me take a moment to add that at this point, even eliminations are mere speculation. Until/Unless we reach another point during filming where all the remaining teams are seen by eyewitnesses at the same place, preferably with photos or videos, we can''t be sure.

Have people moved away from thinking there were 2 legs in Laos now? Until we see the Afghanimals again, I still think that's the most likely. They were there a long time and it just makes more sense for the time frame.
I still think there were two legs in both Loas and Vietnam. Otherwiaw thw timeline doesn't make much sense.

Going back to the Dubai thing, could we be overlooking a connection to East Africa? Perhaps Ethiopia, Seychelles, Mauritius, or even something really unexpected like Eritrea?

Emirates is a massive connection airline so there's hope. I reckon they're flying to Europe. Eritrea is a no go.

Any new country from Europe would be fine: Latvia, Bulgaria, Slovakia, or Slovenia!  :conf:
Going to Hungary, Finland, Romania, Croatia, Sweden, Portugal, Switzerland or Germany would also be perfect with the new country.

Thank you to a friend who talked to someone in Dubai who was at a nightclub last night where they were filming a detour in Dubai.

It was the Soho Garden DXB club in the Meydan Hotel.

She specifically saw Chris/Bret, Colin/Christy, Team Fun & Nicole/Victor. She also saw a team of girls in green t-shirts who they thought would be the Reillys, but she said they looked more like Corinne/Eliza...

She specifically said she didn't see Janelle/Brit but they could have done the other detour. They believe it's a detour because the source said there was "another location" and the teams might have split.

It was around 11pm (so like 6-7 hours ago). The Grey team of Chris/Bret seemed to be in the lead....

I really hope this is right, Leafs, because I'm a Bret & Chris fan.

I think it has to be the Reillys spotted (in green), because if you take a close look of the air plane boarding photo in Vietnam (right beside Becca's head) you can see a spec of green. Only they have worn green. Also, Janelle/Brit were marked out in that photo. Tyler didn't have a bag on either in the Vietnam airport photo so could mean they are indeed out...

Eh. You never know. I remember last season, one of the only, if not the only legs where we basically knew who finished 1st and 2nd, the lifeguards finished first. They were never really THAT much of a threat. That meaning, they could very well be a threat, but I wouldn't necessarily say they are, yet.

TBF I think they're underrated in their threat status, probably because they're some of the older cast, but Chris is a former College Footballer and Bret is a cop, so it isn't too outlandish for them to be a somewhat strong team.

Just note that only Tyler was in their last sighting

He could have just as easily left his backpack with Korey for the picture

Also, the fact that the picture was only taken with him adds to the credence of other teams being there- she was clearly interested in the ONE person, and not the whole team, or likely even the race in general. She very easily could have skipped by several teams to meet Tyler

Until we get sightings of 7+ other teams safely racing in UAE/beyond, we can’t say either way

And just because he doesn’t have a backpack in a solo photo with a fan, it doesn’t make it compelling enough evidence to claim they’re likely eliminated

@leafsfan do you have more details? I'm Impatient and nervous, lol

Btw since they arrived pretty late and then proceeded to keep racing, do we think after the detour there was a HOO? Maybe they got a night break in the middle of the leg and continued in the morning?

Yeah, very possible.
One team prob got eliminated about 12 hours ago and we're down to 6 teams left?

Tokyo, one leg = 1 team out (Art/JJ)
Laos, two legs = 2 out (Bonehams, Afghanimals?)
Vietnam, two legs? = possible NEL, 1 out (Tyler/Korey, Rachel/Elissa, or Corinne/Eliza)
Dubai, one leg so far = 1 out

Six legs, and 5 more to go?

Wouldnt surprise me.

Scenario: one of the Laos legs is a NEL, only Bonehams got eliminated there, Afghanimals survived but got booted in the only HCMC leg. All FF teams + Team YouTube made it out of Vietnam.

Not convinced tho.

Yep, this route is basically TAR15 with Laos in place of Cambodia. Guess that means the Netherlands is probably next :P

Then Sweden ( :conf: :cheer: :woohoo:), Estonia ( :conf: :woohoo: :cheer:) and then Czech Republic.

3 continents, 9 countries and around 40,000km.

What a terrible this would be, if it was the case! :P

U.A.E > The Netherlands > Sweden or Finland > LATVIA > Austria or Poland this season for sure.

Its got to be Rachel/Elissa that were spotted if they did see a F/F team in green. I know people pack different outfits, but the color combo's are almost always the same/similar, and pink and green aren't similar at all. All the spotted pictures of contestants have them wearing the same or a similar outfit in the same/similar color combo. Corinne/Eliza would not be wearing green

The more i think about it, i think the reillys.

If TyKorey got eliminated in HCMC, why would the producers fly them out to the sequester at the same time as the teams still in the race flying to Dubai? The Tyler pic, the pics from sue on webo, and the boarding pic all were taken/uploaded in the morning.

And the pink hat looks very very similar to Eliza's.

Has anyone ever thought of the sceanrio of having 1.5 legs each in Laos and HCMC, with a mid-leg flight on leg 3?

Marketplace + elephant riding = leg 2 (Laos)
Colin and Christie sighting for shopping + flight via Siem Remp = Leg 3 (part one)
Late night arrival in HCMC = leg 3 (part 2)
Bus sighting for team fun + Colin and Christie / Victor and Nicole sighting = Leg 4
Flight via bangkok to Dubai = leg 5

This fits in the sighting schedule that we are having right now
But this theorey is only workable if Afghanimals are the red guys on the bus together with Team Fun in HCMC.

Look at this Instagram post and the hashtags. She is an actress in Dubai. Maybe she was at the club and was part of the detour? https://instagram.com/p/BkOjMz-lycU/  She was definitely a part of the Amazing Race. In the comments someone mentioned it’s airing in January 2019.

If she was in a previous taping of TAR and that season aired in January, she may have assumed this season would too. Usually fall seasons are taped in spring and winter season (Jan'Feb) are taped in the fall. I think this season (31) will likely air after BB finale in September.

"Not the 2 blonde"

Then I was like "so you saw the green AND the pink teams?" and she said "they were dresses (dressed?) in green"

Kinda vague, but at least we can confirm 100% that Brit/Janelle werent at the club....hmmm

Ah that makes sense. Do you know if Corinne brought anything green?

i think Eliza and Corinne are more noticeable and easier to spot than Elissa and Rachel (Eliza is small, Corinne's hair) so that's why people believe that it was them that were spotted at the club.

If they were in a Dubai club last night (I'm assuming the "night" reference was Dubai time) then it's been almost 24 hours. The racers should be out in the wild already, or getting released soon.

In the photo with (maybe) Eliza's pink hat, there was another person in a pink hat with a green shirt. I discounted it being Corinne because of the green, but maybe it is her? It would explain the confusion over the green shirt team looking like Eliza and Corinne at the Dubai club, but I was with Eliza when she was packing and she didn't have anything green...

Ah that makes sense. Do you know if Corinne brought anything green?

i think Eliza and Corinne are more noticeable and easier to spot than Elissa and Rachel (Eliza is small, Corinne's hair) so that's why people believe that it was them that were spotted at the club.

Btw hi Brooke!

hey new to RFF.

question about spoilers post season. obviously there is a lot of conjecture about placements and such because we dont have concrete evidence about placements, but does a bootlist get leaked of all the positions throughout the seasons like in some seasons in survivor, or do we just have to go off sightings info until the show airs?

Good question; typically we can only go off of sightings until the show airs.

Some seasons- last season is a good example (we were pretty solid on who got eliminated and when- minus the outcome of the finale)- we have a lot of information, other seasons we may only know bits and pieces and have to work towards the most likely outcome.

Was TAR: All-Stars (S11) an actual bootlist, or were the sightings/spoilers just that common that we essentially knew everything prior to it airing?

Post by: theschnauzers on June 20, 2018, 11:58:32 AM
I don't recall if we had an actual bootlist anywhere that season or not. But all the teams were returning TAR teams, and even the leg in southernmost Argentina was clearly spoiled as to the elimination.

In any event, I'm starting to wonder if the NELs are being frontloaded this time around (as was done in a previous race not too long ago. That might help explain some of the sightings of teams. There might also be a KOR in there that might explain the timing of legs as well.

Totally.  Unfinished business had a lot of KORs and NELs early to really drain the teams and make the racers earn it.

I'm wondering if sequester is in Vietnam somewhere; we've had precedent for this (TAR 15) plus the number of legs / time spent in SE Asia would make it cost beneficial to have it somewhere in that area rather than like, Portugal or Italy. It could potentially explain the Tyler & Korey and Leo & Jamal airport sightings.

I find it odd that the first non-elimination/to-be-continued leg wasn't at F9, so as to distinguish Reality Clash from the three other returnee seasons:

11 - first at F7
18 - first at F11
24 - first at F8

Come to think of it, there have never been consecutive seasons with the first non-elimination/to-be-continued leg at F9; c.f. 10-11, 18-19, 23-24-25.

I'm worried as well, but I also think the timeline might be messing with us. I really think they did 1 Tokyo leg with either 1 Laos and 2 HCMC, or 2 Laos and 1 HCMC. Since other than S29, the last 8 seasons have had NEL within the first 4 legs, it is possible that Janelle/Brit and even Tyler/Korey all made it Dubai

So am I. It really looks like Britney tho. And if Brit/Janelle were eliminated in HCMC, idk why they would let them board the same plane as Team Fun when the two teams were heading different directions. We just need confirmation whether or not Janelle/Brit were or are in Dubai.

We just need to look at the evidence:
1. They're Blonde
2. The Backpacks match Janelle / Britney
3. They're wearing Gray - Nicole is wearing Black that day at the airport.
4. There is CLEARLY someone filming them get on the plane (so they're on the race).

Britney and Janelle went to Dubai.

Maybe Tyler and Korey were going to Sequester....but I pulled that out of my ass.

I would be second guessing that both Corinne/Eliza and Elissa/Rachel are confirmed in Dubai......

I do have this sensation that Art/JJ were eliminated in Tokyo, Laura/Rupert were eliminated in Laos, Leo/Jamal were eliminated in HCMC and then there was a NEL that would leave everyone else left in it. I'm definitely suspicious of the gap in time between Tyler/Korey and the rest of them, but I just don't quite think it says enough to make me truly suspect that there were four boots already. I could be wrong, of course, but I think based on everything, I'd say Dubai gave us our 4th boots.

They also didn't see Tyler/Korey there and I think having them down to 6 (potentially 5 if you're claiming one of Elissa/Rachel or Corinne/Eliza weren't there) this early is way too quick, especially considering NELs and KORs. I'm inclined to believe it's a detour and that Janelle/Britney and maybe Tyler/Korey just took the other path and we happened to catch the more popular side.

Snapchat also has a lot of stories being posted, best to check on map stories from "JBR Walk" and "Burj Khalifa" if Phil/the teams were possibly staying at Armani Hotel.

If they are going to be at the Marina for the next start, we will see them. That place is packed all the time. Though Phil's video looks like its pretty dark out, so i'm guessing it might just be a start and head to the airport, so just 1 leg in Dubai

Yeah i think they're moving to a new country, and another team possibly got eliminated 12 hours ago

hey new to RFF.

question about spoilers post season. obviously there is a lot of conjecture about placements and such because we dont have concrete evidence about placements, but does a bootlist get leaked of all the positions throughout the seasons like in some seasons in survivor, or do we just have to go off sightings info until the show airs?
:welcome: to RFF!

We post what we are able to find. If teams are not visible, we share that, keeping in mind teams have appeared 7 legs after our last sighting!!

What RFF NEVER posts is the FINAL 3 FINISH ORDER  (in other words...who wins!) or an actual "BOOT LIST".

While we are all addicted to spoilers here, we do believe the SHOW is MORE important than the spoilers.

Many of us lived thru Season 11 where the entire race was spoiled . We saw that the show airing suffered significantly from that. No hype, no buzz, no excitement.

Since that time RFF has stood strong in not spoiling the show outcome. The final leg location...of course! Tasks if found, yes! But a BIG NO to spoiling the winners.

TAR has been on a bubble of cancellation. We hope you all will join us in protecting that one final detail to help ensure a Season 31 where we all look forward to the FINALE and MORE TAR to come!!

The show is the MOST important thing here. NOT who can post the elimination first.

If you are the one finding something that might reveal the winners, please let one of the admins know and we'll decide together whether it is safe to post. 

Purposefully spoiling the Outcome is a bannable offense. Yes, we feel THAT strongly about it. #TARLove

THANKS to ALL OF YOU joining us on this adventure for understanding!!

This is completely fair. It just seemed like a very small snippet of a photo to make such a certain judgment off of. I suppose I'm just more hesitant to get my hopes up and would rather have definitive proof like a physical sighting the likes of which we got at the dancing detour. I didn't mean to belittle the conclusion. I was just expressing hesitation to get overexcited.

No worries- just saw people were moving towards thinking they were out, in spite of the cross-checking and verification people had done, wanted to nip that in the bud  :lol:

Healthy skepticism is needed- it has served wonders on a pretty consistent basis in following spoilers.

We're just pretty confident Britney/Janelle made it to Dubai. :0328:

Good question; typically we can only go off of sightings until the show airs.

Some seasons- last season is a good example (we were pretty solid on who got eliminated and when- minus the outcome of the finale)- we have a lot of information, other seasons we may only know bits and pieces and have to work towards the most likely outcome.

Was TAR: All-Stars (S11) an actual bootlist, or were the sightings/spoilers just that common that we essentially knew everything prior to it airing?

I have answered this above and made a new topic to be 100% clear. Thanks!

I'm a huge Janelle/Britney fan and I am praying they win, but I am becoming increasingly suspicious of the photo being used to label them as still in. It just seems like a bit of a reach to say they're definitely still in based on a backpack and some blonde hair.

Still in when?  ???

 "RFF" has confirmed ONLY that they (two blonde women) were spotted in the airport on the way to HCMC . A poster may express a different opinion, that's a totally different thing. Your best resource to see the "state of our knowledge" is  always Oval's TIMELINE. Its a wonder!

Post by: georgiapeach on June 20, 2018, 04:21:53 PM


I'm worried as well, but I also think the timeline might be messing with us. I really think they did 1 Tokyo leg with either 1 Laos and 2 HCMC, or 2 Laos and 1 HCMC. Since other than S29, the last 8 seasons have had NEL within the first 4 legs, it is possible that Janelle/Brit and even Tyler/Korey all made it Dubai

It was quite confusing at first to us as well. But as best we can tell, the second early AM sighting was NOT a new leg. Perhaps just them looking for the ticketing travel agent? It does not appear that there was enough time for a second leg there. We are always re-questioning and re-evaluating, but the current timeline shows 1 LAOS leg for that reason.

I just wasn't sure that the photo of Team Fun on the way to Dubai with who was supposed to be Britney was actually Britney. So I wasn't sure that they were still in on the way to Dubai. I agree that the timeline is the best indicator of solid facts, but the looser facts that can still be interpreted as proof don't always reflect the timeline, so I try to hedge my bets in consideration of everything.

This is my first ever post, but definitely check Snap Maps!! I've been watching tons of Snap Map vids from Dubai to see if I can find anything (I recommend both searching for the location and just literally moving your map to the location since not all Our Story stories are crosslisted in the search feature), but haven't found anything yet/if someone said or wrote something about the show in Arabic I would have no idea haha. I have noticed there were a few videos of the seemingly same section of the Dubai Marina with English captions around the same time of Phil's tweet along with a lot of snaps from a party at the nightclub we've heard they were at yesterday (but nothing specific). Since Snapchat doesn't show WHO posted (unless the poster adds their QR code), we won't be able to ask for more info or know if it's a crew member posting so that stinks. Anywho, not great speculation per se, but just wanted to share what I know about a possible spoiler resource that is fairly new :)

Neither were Tyler/Corey and NEITHER were one of Corrine/ElizaORRachel/Elissa.

The difference is Tyler and Korey were at the airport the day everyone went to Dubai and Britney is getting on the flight to Dubai.

The eliminated team is the one that actually wasn't seen between Corinne/Eliza or Rachel/Elissa.

I really think this board has two teams as safely in Dubai and in reality one of those two teams never made it there.....

Hi all! I've been working with mods on getting IG spoilers so far.

After talking to people on Instagram who were at the club, I've had multiple people who sighted the "two girls in green" so I think the Reilly's are definitely racing in Dubai. I asked another guy who was at the club specifically about Corinne and Eliza (I sent him their photo from Shibuya) and he said he saw them. I responded with "So you saw the girls in pink?" and he said "yes yes". Then to double check he wasn't confusing them with the Reilly's, I sent them a photo of the Reillys and he said "Yes them too" and talked about them as well.

It's possible he could be confused, but it seems like he saw both teams. Would love photo proof though before being 100% sure. They were instructed to not take photos at the club so no one I've talked to took any of the teams.

From talking with some people, I think it was a detour which could explain Britney/Janelle not being seen (or Tyler/Korey for that matter). This was about 24 hours ago, so it's possible teams could be released for the next leg pretty soon if this was a 24-hour pit stop.

According to Brian, Eliza didn't pack anything green and i don't see why they would wear the same color as the Reillys. Hmmm.

Them being eliminated is a bit of a jump. Even if they weren't at the club, they could be doing the other side of the detour (like speculated Brit/Janelle). 2-3 people spotted girls in green but didn't see too much in general. The other guy said he spotted both pink team and green team. I could see someone confusing the two F/F teams, but to say they've seen both?

I'm not sure. But like I said, I'm holding out for photo proof before saying anything's confirmed!

I also don't understand how 'not the two blondes' meant both Eliza/Corrinne and Rachel/Elissa were at the nightclub.  Was there another source I missed?  I interpret that as 'I cant tell what team it was....it just wasn't the blondes'.

But that is just me.  :duno:

Hi all! I've been working with mods on getting IG spoilers so far.

After talking to people on Instagram who were at the club, I've had multiple people who sighted the "two girls in green" so I think the Reilly's are definitely racing in Dubai. I asked another guy who was at the club specifically about Corinne and Eliza (I sent him their photo from Shibuya) and he said he saw them. I responded with "So you saw the girls in pink?" and he said "yes yes". Then to double check he wasn't confusing them with the Reilly's, I sent them a photo of the Reillys and he said "Yes them too" and talked about them as well.

It's possible he could be confused, but it seems like he saw both teams. Would love photo proof though before being 100% sure. They were instructed to not take photos at the club so no one I've talked to took any of the teams.

From talking with some people, I think it was a detour which could explain Britney/Janelle not being seen (or Tyler/Korey for that matter). This was about 24 hours ago, so it's possible teams could be released for the next leg pretty soon if this was a 24-hour pit stop.

I just want to make sure I'm clear.

Nobody else other than 1 guy said they saw the second set of girls?

Cause now I'm more convinced Eliza / Corinne got eliminated.

Them being eliminated is a bit of a jump. Even if they weren't at the club, they could be doing the other side of the detour (like speculated Brit/Janelle). 2-3 people spotted girls in green but didn't see too much in general. The other guy said he spotted both pink team and green team. I could see someone confusing the two F/F teams, but to say they've seen both?

I'm not sure. But like I said, I'm holding out for photo proof before saying anything's confirmed!

A jump?  Literally every other team has been seen either at the airport leaving HCMC or in the nightclub.

Ok the Janelle/Brit proof is very convincing and now its Eliza/Corinne that look vulnerable.

According to Brian, Eliza didn't pack anything green and i don't see why they would wear the same color as the Reillys. Hmmm.

Maybe the challenge required them wearing something green???

Then everyone would have been described as being in green...........

This....

Brendon & Rachel were always the green team so it would be surprising to see another team be allowed to wear green (as the show really forces teams into their colors) when they obviously have Rachel and Elissa in green this season too.

Oh and by the way, when we get new sightings for the incoming leg, we probably won't see two teams (one eliminated in HCMC, the other in Dubai) from the "final 8" so it's gonna get a bit more confusing lol

I appreciate this.

The point i keep trying to make is THERE IS photo evidence of Britney (and Janelle) getting on that flight.  = THEYRE AT RISK

There are CONFLICTING accounts of what girl team or teams were at that night club = THEYRE SAFE

Nobody contacted the girl who took the picture with Tyler in the airport? Ask where he was going or if she saw other teams around?

I did.

She was flying somewhere else. Everyone else was going to Bangkok she thinks.

She saw other teams? Or even a crew with Tyler and Korey?
Because if she did, then that would make it more possible that they were still in the Race as opposed to being on the way to sequester. Which is certainly still a possibility without any sightings of them past that point.

I don't understand this post.

Tyler and Korey went to Bangkok with everyone else.  As did Britney and Janelle.  Unless there was a quick leg in Bangkok....then both teams ended up in Dubai.

I go back to the point I've been trying to make.

Whatever team that wasn't seen in the night club between Rachel and Elissa OR Corinne and Eliza.....also wasn't seen at the airport or getting on a flight....there is 0.00 evidence of them in Dubai.

We got more sightings in Luang Prabang—a small, very laid back city with not so many people—than in HCMC and Dubai—two busy, metropolitan cities packed with people (and also Tokyo for that matter)

Yeah i'm now leaning towards either Green or Pink not making it to Dubai

Reillys make more sense because of the lack of photo evidence (the pink hat supports the Eliza theory)

Don't Reilly's make more sense to be there than Corinne/Eliza. The evidence in the sighting thread said they saw a team in green, and per one of the other users multiple people saw a F/F team in Green.

Also just thought i'd throw this out there, other than S29, the last 9 seasons have all had a NEL leg within the first 4 rounds. Since Laos is now being speculated to just have had 1 round, its pretty likely that all F/F teams and Tyler/Korey could be in Dubai

Ignore the dumb timeline.

One of the two Vietnam legs was a NEL.

Both Rupert and Laura / Leo and Jamal were eliminated in the TWO Loas legs.

Haven't been closely following every finding, but what is the basis for concluding (as shown on oval's great timeline) that we only had 1 1/2 Legs each in Laos and Vietnam instead of 2+1 or 2 in each?

OR Dubai was Leg 5, and one of the previous 4 were a NEL?

It's not impossible for 8 teams to have made it to Dubai- I mean it happened in the season that this is eerily similar to- Season 15.

We don't know anything for sure.

Tyler and Korey could very easily have been travelling with other teams, but there's still a chance they're not

Britney and Janelle seem very likely to be the team in the plane photo, but it's best to wait until the mods feel comfortable in agreeing

Corinne and Eliza AND Rachel and Elissa could have both truly been spotted in the nightclub in Dubai- or it could just be one- or neither, tbh

Afghanimals could have been in the bus photo, or that could be someone else; they could've been missing from the 'final 8' photo for numerous reasons- one of which being them possibly being eliminated

There could've been 2 legs in both Laos and Vietnam, or 2 legs in only one of them, or just 1 leg for both; there could've been 1 NEL, or 2, or none

Hopefully, in the coming sightings, there'll be some clarification as to what is actually going on right now

I'm worried as well, but I also think the timeline might be messing with us. I really think they did 1 Tokyo leg with either 1 Laos and 2 HCMC, or 2 Laos and 1 HCMC. Since other than S29, the last 8 seasons have had NEL within the first 4 legs, it is possible that Janelle/Brit and even Tyler/Korey all made it Dubai

It was quite confusing at first to us as well. But as best we can tell, the second early AM sighting was NOT a new leg. Perhaps just them looking for the ticketing travel agent? It does not appear that there was enough time for a second leg there. We are always re-questioning and re-evaluating, but the current timeline shows 1 LAOS leg for that reason.

I keep thinking if there was a KOR in Laos, then there might have been time. It's interesting tthat the photos of Phil and the apparent greeter at the temple did NOT show the check-in mat, which has sometimes been the case in a KOR leg.

Everyone's expecting that if Brit & Janelle survived both HCMC and were seen in an airport as well as being spotted in Dubai means one answer: they're maybe safe?

They weren't one of the teams spotted in Dubai, though.

Neither were Tyler/Corey and NEITHER were one of Corrine/ElizaORRachel/Elissa.

The difference is Tyler and Korey were at the airport the day everyone went to Dubai and Britney is getting on the flight to Dubai.

The eliminated team is the one that actually wasn't seen between Corinne/Eliza or Rachel/Elissa.

I really think this board has two teams as safely in Dubai and in reality one of those two teams never made it there.....


BOTH Corinne/Eliza AND  Rachel/Elissa were confirmed in Dubai nightclub by at least two separate sightings. Is this not posted?  I was not here yesterday but assumed the info was shared.



SO this may be the issue. <<The eliminated team is the one that actually wasn't seen between Corinne/Eliza or Rachel/Elissa.>> They BOTH were seen based on sighting reports. Which are always taken at face value, but 2 and prob 3 report the same.

I am sorry, I will go reread to see if the info was posted. Others say it was. Like I said, I was offline for 24 hours.

But I can tell you there are two confirmations based on incoming info.

And in our eyes there is NO conclusive photographic evidence of that backpack belonging to Janelle.

So we will have to agree to disagree at THIS point.

So many disagreements going on right now and here I am in my corner just happy Bret & Chris haven't been eliminated yet =)
They were pretty much zeroes in terms of entertainment in their Survivor season.  Why would you want them to be bores here, as well?

Everyone's expecting that if Brit & Janelle survived both HCMC and were seen in an airport as well as being spotted in Dubai means one answer: they're maybe safe?

They weren't one of the teams spotted in Dubai, though.

Neither were Tyler/Corey and NEITHER were one of Corrine/ElizaORRachel/Elissa.

The difference is Tyler and Korey were at the airport the day everyone went to Dubai and Britney is getting on the flight to Dubai.

The eliminated team is the one that actually wasn't seen between Corinne/Eliza or Rachel/Elissa.

I really think this board has two teams as safely in Dubai and in reality one of those two teams never made it there.....
um they were both spotted if you go back to page 40-41 (i don't have a good memeory) someone asked the dancer in the ar and she said she spotted both of them so both are safe

I understand everyone would like to cheer for the favourites to survive (so do i for Colin and Christie)

But any praying (like I hope Janelle / Brit can survive, or I am worrying about Eliza) acts as nothing for the actual spoilering  :groan:

These should be done in thr Bitch, Moan and Sequel thread instead of in this speculation thread...

(Just a little opinion as a member. This thread has become too complex and messy for reading for the past few days)

Those photos were posted by someone who works for TAR.  And I am sure that was well known by others because it comes from a clearly labelled person who works for TAR.

People screw up. Sometimes they post without thinking.

RFF chooses to NEVER post pics from production. If we know that it is.

We have been here long enough to know people that lost their jobs because of this.

We are going to have a cooling off period now.

We were trying to find a way to share them without jeopardizing the guy.

But thanks to you all reposting info here thoughtlessly that is now not happening.

JUST to be CLEAR:

Posting (or reposting) production PHOTOS Is NOT allowed.

So before you post or repost something it is YOUR responsibility to check to be sure that is not the case.

And the RULES HERE on PAGE ONE clearly state that.

Not how much Bret drank on BB. Not blahblah about anything but spoilers.

We welcome you all. We want you to have fun and enjoy every minute of this wild ride.

But this thread has hgotten more complaints in the past three days than probably in the last YEAR.

I want you all to do two things before you click post.


Be sure that what you are posting belongs here. Are you discussing a spoiler?  If no, don't post it.

And be sure that what you post from elsewhere meets OUR standards.

Read here if you have not:

Okay. re-opening this thread.

Let's all move on.

To be VERY clear. No discussion of photos not posted HERE.

No posting of production pics.

Possible scenarios

Leg 1 Tokyo - Art and JJ are gone for good.
Leg 2 Laos - Rupert and Laura are gone for good
Leg 3 Laos and Vietnam - 9 teams left and non - elim
Leg 4 Vietnam
Leg 5 Dubai

or

Leg 1 Tokyo - Art and JJ are gone for good.
Leg 2 Laos - Rupert and Laura are gone for good
Leg 3 Laos and KOR
Leg 4 Vietnam
Leg 5 Vietnam
Leg 6 Dubai

I'll speculate.

I think Corinne/Eliza are out in Vietnam (not getting into a debate again - but I think thats Britney getting on the flight to Thailand).

I'd say Janelle/Brit out in Dubai (trusting the source that said Chris / Brett were in the lead).

To add to that, the photo of them getting on the plane shows Britney (which would be them heading to Dubai), and people mentioned sources spotting both a green and pink team in Dubai, so maybe they really did just do 1 leg in Laos and HCMC. 1 of those presumably being a NEL

If two legs in Vietnam (one NEL, one elim), then Eliza/Corinne and Janelle/Brit are out

If one leg in Vietnam, then Eliza/Corinne are out but there's still a possibility that the leg in Dubai is a NEL and Janelle/Brit survived

So seems the conclusion is that Eliza/Corinne are out whatever the scenario is

Weird that they were in Laos for one leg only considering that country is hard to get.

Leg 1=Tokyo (Art/JJ)
Leg 2=Luang Prabang (Rupert/Laura)
Leg 3=HCMC (Eliza/Corinne)  :'(
Leg 4=Dubai (NEL or Janelle/Brit  :'()

Sooo we are only at Leg 5 now?????
Corrine and Eliza were reported by Peach to be at the club in Dubai, so I'm going to disagree they were eliminated in Vietnam. I will agree that this likely is only Leg 4 that just finished in Dubai since so many teams remain. The extra days might best be explained by how hard it is to get in and out of Laos and the protests reported to be happening around the time they were in HCMC.

I would be shocked if that airplane picture isn't Britney (I mean whose backpack is the exact same, with the same hair color + shoes and leggings).

I believe we have 9 teams spotted either in Dubai or headed to Dubai.

I almost was to play devils advocate and say Sequester could be in Thailand (it has in the past) and so that could explain Britney heading to Bangkok.....but someone is filming her so I kinda take it back.

1. Britney was spotted boarding a plane to Dubai
2. Two or three people at the club said that they saw Eliza and Corinne

Yea if they only completed 4 legs in 11 days it doesn't seem quite right.
Which is why I think we had both a KOR and an NEL, one in Laos and the other in HCMC. They had to take a long flight to Dubai, and I suspect another long flight out, as that would be 5 legs in 11 days which would keep thing on the average pace. and the NEL or other pit stops could have been shorter than the presumed average = or - 12 hours in those places. After all the years literally waiting for a Laos leg or two, I find it hard to believe TPTB would settle for just one leg. There are so many permutations trying to sort out how the race course and pacing could have been planned in Indochina, it almost defies the imagination.
And I wouldn't be surprised if the Race was frontloaded in some ways with KORa and NELs to keep things interesting for the viewers when this airs. After all, if this season is aired the way last season was, there will need to be a lot of paired episodes to get all the episodes in within  eight weeks as last time.

Possible. Would explain why they haven't been spotted with anyone else. But that would mean that Eliza/Corinne are dunzo (well, sadly i'm almost positive they are)

We also can't count out the possibility of Bret/Chris not making it to Dubai (the grey team seen at the club could possibly have been Tyler /Korey) OR getting eliminated there. So there's still a (very small) chance that all FF teams are still in it)

The way I see it, the two teams definetely not seen after Laos are Art and JJ (Tokyo EL?) and Rupet and Laura (Laos EL?) and the only two teams seen after Dubai are the Reillys and the Afghanimals. So anything could have happened in Dubai and no other team is safe until we spot them again, most likely in Europe.

Which is why I think we had both a KOR and an NEL, one in Laos and the other in HCMC. They had to take a long flight to Dubai, and I suspect another long flight out, as that would be 5 legs in 11 days which would keep thing on the average pace. and the NEL or other pit stops could have been shorter than the presumed average = or - 12 hours in those places. After all the years literally waiting for a Laos leg or two, I find it hard to believe TPTB would settle for just one leg. There are so many permutations trying to sort out how the race course and pacing could have been planned in Indochina, it almost defies the imagination.
And I wouldn't be surprised if the Race was frontloaded in some ways with KORa and NELs to keep things interesting for the viewers when this airs. After all, if this season is aired the way last season was, there will need to be a lot of paired episodes to get all the episodes in within  eight weeks as last time.
I agree about Laos. After all this time, having basically one leg is kind of disappointing. Even a leg and a half as is shown on the timeline and in only Luang Prabang is underwhelming considering how long the show has tried to go there and how challenging it is to get to.

Oh well.

To the immediate question A KOR leg means a leg with a checkin mat, but no pitstop, they keep on racing.

Clarification, because I see it might be misconstrued. When I said 5 legs in 11 days, I was referring to the legs before Dubai. Keep in mind the teams gained a day when they crossed the International Date Line moving westward, so an arrival in Tokyo was late night on the 11th into the 12th.

Our current thought is that it is one Leg. The half may be just looking for a travel ticketing agent or something, we aren't sure. But timewise that's all we had.

Could it be 4 legs right now?

Leg 1 Tokyo
Leg 2 Luang Prabang
Leg 3 Vietnam (To Be continued leg)
Leg 4 Dubai
We could have had NEL or KORs to keep the amounts of teams
Having 9 teams running leg 5 has happened before (Season 18)

Leo and Jamal popping up not necessary hinting there is only one leg in HCMC, but rather there could be both of the HCMCs are NELs (it has happened! S25's Philippines)
Right now I am leaning towards the following situation :
Leg 1 > Tokyo > Art & JJ out? :duno:
Leg 2 > Laos > Rupert & Laura out?  :duno:
Leg 3 > HCMC > KOR
Leg 4 > HCMC > NEL
Leg 5 > Dubai > one team eliminated

Though I have to admit this is not likely :zz:

Weird that they were in Laos for one leg only considering that country is hard to get.

Leg 1=Tokyo (Art/JJ)
Leg 2=Luang Prabang (Rupert/Laura)
Leg 3=HCMC (Eliza/Corinne)  :'(
Leg 4=Dubai (NEL or Janelle/Brit  :'()

Sooo we are only at Leg 5 now?????
Corrine and Eliza were reported by Peach to be at the club in Dubai, so I'm going to disagree they were eliminated in Vietnam. I will agree that this likely is only Leg 4 that just finished in Dubai since so many teams remain. The extra days might best be explained by how hard it is to get in and out of Laos and the protests reported to be happening around the time they were in HCMC.


You're right. So the HCMC leg is a NEL. And either Eliza or Janelle got the boot last night Dubai time. One of them should still be racing.

How do we know that either Eliza/Corrine or janelle/Britney got eliminated in Dubai? We only saw two teams at the airport leaving Dubai.

Yeah, it would be nice if we're all wrong and we do get two Laos Legs. But  :duno: nothing we can do about it I guess.

It does present interesting possibilities about the 2nd half of the Race now then depending on what Leg number Dubai was.

Having a NEL right after a KOR doesnt make sense to me. Right now, i'm leaning towards 1 country 1 leg, with the HCMC leg being a NEL.

Edit: maybe there were two legs in Luang Prabang. Weird if they only spent one leg there and there aren't many days left to fit 7 legs

Leg 1: Tokyo (Art/JJ out)
Leg 2: Luang Prabang (Rupert/Laura out)
Leg 3: Luang Prabang (NEL/KOR)
Leg 4: HCMC (elimination)
Leg 5: Dubai (elimination)

Teams we aren’t certain about reaching Dubai:
Britney/Janelle (possibly seen boarding plane- but not 100% confirmed)
Chris/Bret (potentially leading race at nightclub- could’ve been mistaken)
Corinne/Eliza (potentially seen racing at nightclub by several eyewitnesses, but could’ve been mistaken)

Eliminated first and second in Japan and Laos are:
Art & JJ
Rupert & Laura

Safe through Laos, connecting through Siem Reap:
Eliza & Corinne - (En route to HCMC - Instagram/REP group photo)
Chris & Bret - (REP group photo)
Tyler & Korey - (REP group photo)
Britney & Janelle - (REP group photo)

Safe through Ho Chi Minh City/Vietnam:
Colin & Christie - (Selfie with fan at HCMC Airport - Weibo)
Nicole & Victor - (Selfie with fan at HCMC Airport - Weibo)
Becca & Floyd - (Seen boarding flight at HCMC Airport - Instagram)

Safe through Dubai:

There were definitely two legs (or at least two Pit Stops) in Viet Nam. Teams arrived in Ho Chi Minh City the evening of Sat 16 Jun and were seen racing on Mon 18 Jun. There is no way the same leg could have lasted three full days!

A separate thought. Teams arrived in Dubai the evening of Tue 19 Jun. Phil posted his Instagram picture at the Armani Hotel on Wed 20 Jun at ~8:30pm and his Twitter video at the Dubai Marina at 11:22pm the same evening.
Phil usually flies out once he checks in the teams. Assuming Phil didn't wait a full day before posting, are we looking at two legs in Dubai?

Could someone cross-check when Phil posted his Instagram photo (https://www.instagram.com/p/BacIy97AruX/?hl=en) at the Tree of Life last season? Teams checked in there on 19 Oct 2017; the post shows up as 20 Oct on my feed but I'm a few timezones ahead of Bahrain/the US and I'm not sure how timestamps on Instagram work...

The person that posted the insta pic had insta stories going to the airport 20-23 hours ago but it looks like they were going to an airport leaving New York.

That girl is from Swaziland. Maybe she flew back to her home country from NYC and then transit in Dubai. She ended up in the same flight with Afganimals & Janelle/Britney

But we had Leo & Jamal in Dubai less than 12 hours ago so something doesn't add up if it was NYC

My new theory is that Corinne & Eliza were mistakenly sighted in Dubai and that Chris & Bret flopped at the leg after the Detour (or at this point they too could have been a mistaken sighting and we actually lost them in HCMC)

Either that or we've had 6 legs before leaving Dubai and all 3 of Rachelissa/Afghans/Blondes are out and that would just be outright tragic

So a quick recap:

The two teams that we think are definitely out are Art/JJ and Rupert/Laura

Teams that are up in the air are Corrine/Eliza, Chris/Bret, and Tyler/Korey?

Is that right?

Judging by the IG from that girl
Leo/Jamal
Rachel/Elissa
Janelle/Britney

These 3 are for sure safe, en route to Kampala

Thanks Travejunkie! Leo/Jamal, Britney/Janelle, Rachel/Elissa were on an Emirates flight to Addis Ababa that landed in the early afternoon, so that means EK723.

Arriving in Entebbe at 6:10pm wouldn't give them much time to race, and we've never had a night leg in Africa (most likely for safety). I expect teams to be racing tomorrow, 22 Jun 2018?

ya very likely; checked actual arrivals on the Dubai website and EK723 arrived at 1:56 pm local time, which would neatly coincide with the Insta user's "just arrived in Ethiopia" comment on the post (plus, the earlier direct flight to Entebbe could have theoretically allowed Phil to already film some of the production shots in the afternoon)

It’s actually more that the photo/video with Korey in it is from someone on production, and WE don’t want to be the reason someone got fired- so we’re not using that until it’s clear it’s okay to use

Helps to read the thread :0328:

Peach was also going with what she believed was the stronger case based off info she had- and she even said that the informant (or even she) could’ve gotten wires crossed- it happens

Two scenarios:
1. One of HCMC and Dubai was a NEL, only one team has been eliminated (+Art/JJ and Bonehams)
2. Both HCMC and Dubai were elim legs, two teams have been eliminated (+Art/JJ and Bonehams)

Either both Eliza/Corinne and Bret/Chris are out, or only one is.

i think 1 is likelier. And we are on Leg 5 right now. So 1 country 1 leg so far. And 2 legs in Uganda.

A separate thought. Teams arrived in Dubai the evening of Tue 19 Jun. Phil posted his Instagram picture at the Armani Hotel on Wed 20 Jun at ~8:30pm and his Twitter video at the Dubai Marina at 11:22pm the same evening.
Phil usually flies out once he checks in the teams. Assuming Phil didn't wait a full day before posting, are we looking at two legs in Dubai?

Could someone cross-check when Phil posted his Instagram photo (https://www.instagram.com/p/BacIy97AruX/?hl=en) at the Tree of Life last season? Teams checked in there on 19 Oct 2017; the post shows up as 20 Oct on my feed but I'm a few timezones ahead of Bahrain/the US and I'm not sure how timestamps on Instagram work...

Now that would makes things REALLY crazy! lol

About Instagram posts, I believe the time shown in your feed should be your local time regardless of where it was posted from.

Thanks DryedMangoez, I played around with my time zone settings. When Phil posted the photo of the Tree of Life it was 19 Oct 2017 in India (GMT+5:30) and 20 Oct in Nepal (GMT+5:45). That means Phil posted it between 9:30 and 9:45pm on the evening of 19 Oct, about 4 hours after he checked in the last team at the tree (he had to go eliminate Lucas/Brittany after that though).

This time, he posted his Instagram posts on the evening of 20 Jun. With teams racing in Dubai on the evening of 19 Jun, would he have waited a full 24 hours before posting them? :duno:

All the mods apologies are accepted.   Clear as day that Britney getting to Dubai....mods didn't want to admit it because it made sense in their timeline...

I still say the sources from Dubai were OBVIOUSLY confused about Elissa/Rachel v Corinne/Eliza (its said in the very original post there was confusion).  I don't think the Survivor Girls were in Dubai.

Only question (for me) is if Chris/Bret were eliminated in Dubai or if it was a NEL.

I mean there isn't even a question that it was Korey spotted with the other teams.....mods are refusing to acknowledge (MORE) photographic proof because it contradicts their confused source.

I truly don't understand it.

Wow! The mods are not acknowledging whether or not Korey was seen because we are NOT suppose to post or talk about those pictures. It's obvious you would rather talk crap about peach (mods) and disrespect her than to pay attention to what she is saying so maybe you can read this.... No posting of production pic's and no TALKING about production pic's because it could adversely effect the job of the production employee who took it. Instead of accepting apologies, I believe you owe one and I do think you are guilty of ignoring somethings because it contradicts what YOU want to believe. We are suppose to be working together and sorting stuff out, not playing the game of -I am right and you are wrong.- Everyone has a right to an opinion, yours differs from hers and there are good arguments on both sides of the dang pic of the teams boarding the plane to Dubai. When all said and done, we may never know for 100% sure if it was Britney or Nicole. Time to build a bridge and get over it!!

Okay is the Insta with Britney & Leo before or after Dubai because if it's after Dubai then either we definitely had 2 NELs at this point, or one of the teams in the production photo has been cut (or were Chris & Bret sighted anywhere)

The person that posted the insta pic had insta stories going to the airport 20-23 hours ago but it looks like they were going to an airport leaving New York. Could Leo and Britney and their partners have been going to wherever the sequester house is?  It would help if the person would let us know where they were going.

Sequester is NOT in the US so NYC is clearly nothing to do with us.

I guess it's theoretically possible that there are eight teams heading to Uganda if it is true that every team besides Rupert/Laura and Art/JJ were spotted at some point in Dubai. We could have

Leg 1: Tokyo
Leg 2: Luang Prabang
Leg 3: Ho Chi Minh City
Leg 4: Dubai
Leg 5: Kampala

with an NEL somewhere in the first three legs. Or we could also have

Leg 1: Tokyo
Leg 2: Luang Prabang
Leg 3: Ho Chi Minh City
Leg 4: Dubai
Leg 5: Dubai
Leg 6: Kampala

with an NEL somewhere in the first three legs, an elimination in Leg 4, and then another NEL in Leg 5. I would not put it past the producers to have NELs in Legs 3 and 5 to save as many teams as possible.

This is all just speculation and not to be taken as confirmation of anything.

Eliza and Corinne were also allegedly spotted at the club

Photographic proof >>> word of mouth

At this point we dont know if both Survivor teams were in Dubai, or one got eliminated in HCMC

HCMC is likelier to have two legs than Dubai

Post by: ImANewUser on June 21, 2018, 11:01:31 AM
so if I'm getting spoilers right, what we're possibly looking at right now is this:

Scenario 1: we're in Leg 6 as follows:
Leg 1: Tokyo, Japan (Art & JJ are eliminated)
Leg 2: Luang Prabang, Laos (Rupert & Laura are eliminated)
Leg 3: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (NEL #1)
Leg 4: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (Corinne & Eliza eliminated, their Dubai sighting being a mistaken identity thing)
Leg 5: Dubai, United Arab Emirates (NEL #2)
Leg 6: Kampala, Uganda (the current leg)

Scenario 2: we're in Leg 6 as follows:
Leg 1: Tokyo, Japan (NEL / zero-hour Pit Stop)
Leg 2: Luang Prabang, Laos (Art & JJ or Rupert & Laura are eliminated)
Leg 3: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (Art & JJ or Rupert & Laura are eliminated)
Leg 4: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (NEL #2)
Leg 5: Dubai, United Arab Emirates (Corinne & Eliza eliminated)
Leg 6: Kampala, Uganda (the current leg)

Scenario 3: we're in Leg 7 as follows:
Leg 1: Tokyo, Japan (NEL / zero-hour Pit Stop)
Leg 2: Luang Prabang, Laos (Art & JJ or Rupert & Laura are eliminated)
Leg 3: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (NEL / zero-hour Pit Stop)
Leg 4: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (Art & JJ or Rupert & Laura are eliminated)
Leg 5: Dubai, United Arab Emirates (final NEL - a zero-hour Pit Stop)
Leg 6: Dubai, United Arab Emirates (Corinne & Eliza eliminated)
Leg 7: Kampala, Uganda (the current leg)

what we do know is this:
3 of the 9 teams spotted past Laos were *definitely* spotted en route to Kampala
5 of the 9 teams spotted past Laos were *definitely* spotted leaving Dubai for somewhere else
1 of the 9 teams spotted past Laos were *supposedly* spotted in Dubai
which means that the other 2 teams only have a shot of survival if Corinne & Eliza were actually eliminated before Dubai (i.e. the sighting in the club was a mistaken identity thing) and we have two non-eliminations before arriving in Dubai
also based on there being definitely at least 4 legs (4 country sightings) + 8 teams being confirmed to have at least lasted until this point, Kampala is definitely either Leg 6 or 7 (Kampala being Leg 5 would just imply some truly shoddy timeline planning, and more than 2 double legs would need more than 3 NELs)

Personally, I'm suspicious of the club sightings in general now that we know it's unlikely that Corinne/Eliza were actually seen there. As a result, I'm suspicious of the Bret/Chris sighting and feel like since it was so busy, they could've easily seen a general color and assumed it was that team and got Bret/Chris' colors mixed up with Tyler/Korey's. Or maybe I'm overthinking it and there really were two NELs/KORs in the first 5 legs.

Yeah, either leg 5 or 6.

The contact seemed pretty confident in their Chris ID and it would be hard to mistake him for either Tyler or Korey but I suppose stranger things have happened! In a dark club I think it would be easy to mix up some colors and a green shirt may look grey.

And although I haven't seen the picture myself, allegedly Bret and Chris are confirmed for Dubai departure so I think their club sighting is accurate!

I think you're probably right about the club in the long run. I just feel like Bret/Chris are the least solid team for going to Uganda with every other team in it (with the exception of Corinne/Eliza, Art/JJ, and Rupert/Laura) being firmly seen either preparing for the flight or actually on the flight with Bret/Chris only supposedly being seen. So either Dubai was a NEL or Bret/Chris were eliminated and the sightings post-Dubai leg have been mistaken. And for me, I know teams get lost all the time or struggle at a roadblock that kills them, but for Bret/Chris to have been in the lead at the detour and then eliminated is a bit hard to swallow for me.

Okay guys...ONCE MORE and then we are putting this behind us.

NO further discussion is needed. WE ARE MOVING ON!!


http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,34605.msg1232790.html#msg1232790

Since we clearly have QUESTIONS, then there is NO NEED to keep speculating endlessly on the possible boot order at this time.

So lets MOVE ON and look for new sightings and start from there please?

Thank you all for your patience the last 2 days. RFF has some things we do that others do not, that's just how we roll.

So appreciate the support, understand some frustration...but all is good.

We are starting fresh in UGANDA!!

Let's go looking for new locations.

Urban leg? Or could we see GORILLAS??  :)x :2hearts: :)x

The teams definitely shown prepping for DUBAI Departure (presumed safe) were

Tyler & Korey /Colin & Christie / Becca & Floyd / Victor & Nicole/

Brett & Chris: Brett BELIEVED to be seen.

Let's not discount the possibility it could also be the Pit Stop on the evening of Tue 19 Jun.

I think Partner Swap is back and theyre gonna need 8 teams for that. And in the scenario that 8 teams made it to Dubai, it's unlikely that they did Partner Swap there since they all were spotted racing with their original partners

More to the point, do they ever hold teams in the airport until they all have cleared security? Sometimes it seems like they all run out of the doors in a big swarm rather than trickle out one team at a time!

Yes.

We're definitely at least on Leg 6, but it's theoretically possible (albeit very unlikely) we're up to Leg 9 by now!
Note: We would have needed endless non-eliminations for that to happen!

Sun 10 Jun: Start in Los Angeles, fly to Tokyo
Mon 11 Jun: Leg 1, Tokyo (Shibuya)
Tue 12 Jun: Enough space for a leg (no sightings)
Wed 13 Jun: Fly to Luang Prabang
Thu 14 Jun: Leg 2, Luang Prabang (elephants, Mt Phousi)
Fri 15 Jun: Enough space for a leg (no sightings)
Sat 16 Jun: Fly to Ho Chi Minh City
Sun 17 Jun: Leg 3, Ho Chi Minh City
Mon 18 Jun: Leg 4, Ho Chi Minh City (Bình Quới)
Tue 19 Jun: Fly to Dubai, Leg 5 Dubai (nightclub, Dubai Marina - putting this here as two night legs in a row is unlikely)
Wed 20 Jun: Enough space for a leg (no sightings)
Thu 21 Jun: Fly to Entebbe
Fri 22 Jun: Leg 6, Entebbe/Kampala

I think realistically, at most, two of Japan, Laos or Vietnam hosted two Legs. But not all three.
I think two Vietnam Pit Stops is 99%. But I am holding out hope for two Laos Legs. Still, the number of teams being sighted today leans toward Uganda being at most Leg 6 with 2 NEL/KORs in the first 5 Legs.

Is it correct that we haven't seen the following teams on a flight (or airport) to or in Uganda?:

Tyler/Korey
Colin/Christie
Floyd/Becca
Yes.

We're definitely at least on Leg 6, but it's theoretically possible (albeit very unlikely) we're up to Leg 9 by now!
Note: We would have needed endless non-eliminations for that to happen!

Sun 10 Jun: Start in Los Angeles, fly to Tokyo
Mon 11 Jun: Leg 1, Tokyo (Shibuya)
Tue 12 Jun: Enough space for a leg (no sightings)
Wed 13 Jun: Fly to Luang Prabang
Thu 14 Jun: Leg 2, Luang Prabang (elephants, Mt Phousi)
Fri 15 Jun: Enough space for a leg (no sightings)
Sat 16 Jun: Fly to Ho Chi Minh City
Sun 17 Jun: Leg 3, Ho Chi Minh City
Mon 18 Jun: Leg 4, Ho Chi Minh City (Bình Quới)
Tue 19 Jun: Fly to Dubai, Leg 5 Dubai (nightclub, Dubai Marina - putting this here as two night legs in a row is unlikely)
Wed 20 Jun: Enough space for a leg (no sightings)
Thu 21 Jun: Fly to Entebbe
Fri 22 Jun: Leg 6, Entebbe/Kampala

Its is also possible Japan was a two day leg.  Remember back in the old days where they would like sign up for one of three busses departing the next day or something like that.

Yes definitely. I think at most, only two countries out of Japan, Laos and Vietnam had 2 Legs. But not all three.

How sure we are that Eliza & Corinne made it/didn't make it to Dubai?

There was that pink hat spoiler and witness who claimed seeing them, so I think it's likely they were eliminated in Dubai? Where would be NELs/KORs placed then?

At this point i'm leaning towards them not having made it to Dubai.

1st leg (Japan)- Art/JJ out

2nd leg (Laos) - Laura/Rupert out

3rd/4th leg (HCMC) - NEL and Eliza/Corinne out

5th leg (Dubai) - NEL


Maybe if there is only 1 leg in HCMC, then Corinne/Eliza could make it to Dubai. Otherwise the only way for Eliza/Corinne to have made it to Dubai would have been through 2 NEL or 1 NEL and a KOR within the first 4 legs which seems really unlikely? Regardless, there is pretty much no way they are still in

There is no evidence of team fun, Collin/Christie , or Tyler/Korey in Africa yet so we can’t be sure that Dubai was a NEL.

Please everyone:

A couple of house keeping things. You do not need to copy the post directly above you.

If you are replying to a post several back, then fine.

And PLEASE try to read the last few pages of Spoilers and Discussion before BEFORE you post?

A lot of people are asking questions here that have been endlessly discussed just a page or two before. 

You can also refer to the TIMELINE thread for the latest summary of where we think things stand.

Thanks everyone!

I can confirm Colin and Christie were on the plane to Uganda too

I dm'd @its_nosi_k and sent her a pic of Colin/Christie and asked her if she saw them, her reply was "pretty sure I saw Christie"

(I also sent her the Eliza/Corinne pic at LAX, first she said "yes all teams", then i sent her the Shibuya pic to recheck and she said "i'm not sure")

I find it odd that the first non-elimination/to-be-continued leg wasn't at F9, so as to distinguish Reality Clash from the three other returnee seasons:

11 - first at F7
18 - first at F11
24 - first at F8

Come to think of it, there have never been consecutive seasons with the first non-elimination/to-be-continued leg at F9; c.f. 10-11, 18-19, 23-24-25.

Oh my gosh, I called it!

So this is what I see...

Leg 1: United States -> Japan  (Art/JJ Out)
Leg 2: Japan -> Laos (Laura/Rupert Out)
Leg 3: Laos -> Vietnam (NEL)
Leg 4: Vietnam (Eliza/Corinne Out)
Leg 5: Vietnam -> United Arab Emirates  (Tyler/Korey or Team Fun Out)?
Leg 6: United Arab Emirates -> Uganda   

I am thinking going into Leg 6, 7 teams remain. I am thinking that there will be 2 Legs in Uganda then, 1 leg in South Africa (Seen we haven’t been there seen Season 7) I think the partner Swap is at Final 6 this season as well.

I Think It Is

Leg 6: United Arab Emirates -> Uganda  (NEL or KOP)
Leg 7: Uganda  (EL)
Leg 8: Uganda -> South Africa  (NEL because Partner Swap)

The last part was per speculation. This is my opinion not yours please be respectful I look at EVERYONES opinion I respect everyone.

They weren't saying Leo/Jamal are out. They were saying that we considered Leg 2 an elimination leg because two teams (Rupert/Laura and Leo/Jamal) went missing after it, so we assumed a team had to be eliminated that leg, but now that Leo/Jamal have popped up, Leg 2 COULD be a NEL and Rupert/Laura went Leg 3.

The reason I think either Tyler/Korey or Team Fun are not racing is because their the 2 out of 8 teams not seen on IG going to Uganda. The other 6 teams should be confirmed safe in Leg 5 or 4 or 6 (Dubai) depending on how you see it.

Check the timeline thread. That's your most reliable source for definite sightings. Both Tyler/Korey and Becca/Floyd have been spotted at the start of the leg heading to Uganda from a certain reliable source, so all 8 of the teams are locked in at least that far.

Since the race lowered itself from thirteen legs to twelve, there'll be three NELs per season.  At least one or two of these might instead be TBCs/KORs, but nonetheless, there are three legs that will fall under either of those categories.

Hmm. . . . The only reason I doubt that possibility is that I highly doubt that the race would spend half of the game in Asia before moving on to Africa.  At most, five legs.  That's why I think that Uganda will house legs six and seven.

A Kenya leg seems plausible, it is currently at a 2 right now, and so is Uganda. I do think if they were to do another African leg they will most likely go to these: Kenya, Rwanda, South Africa, Senegal, or eSwatini (Swaziland)

Going by Leg 6, the nearest countries of Uganda are Rwanda and Kenya as well as Tanzania but Tanzania had been visited 2 seasons ago. So Kenya and Rwanda might be possible for Leg 7. Or they'll just have to stay in Uganda for another leg. I wanted to see Mozambique or South Africa soon.

Right?  And besides, they planned the route out first before they did the casting.  The route planners are a separate team from the casting team.  They didn't even know that there would be a TAR vs. Survivor vs. BB season.  They probably thought it was another regular, normal season and thus planned accordingly.

I thought since this was an Amazing Race Vs Survivor Vs Big Brother season they would go places like Borneo, maybe Australia and they still go to Kenya for a throwback to Survivor 3 also I thought they would go to Netherlands cause that’s where Big Brother but that was just my opinion

Idk why people assumed they would do throwbacks to Survivor or Big Brother just because people from those shows are on the show.....
Right?  And besides, they planned the route out first before they did the casting.  The route planners are a separate team from the casting team.  They didn't even know that there would be a TAR vs. Survivor vs. BB season.  They probably thought it was another regular, normal season and thus planned accordingly.
Oddly enough, maybe they don't want to visit the places the Big Brother and Survivor were filmed in? If possible, then we can have at least 2 legs that has to do any places with Big Brother and Survivor. What if there's a slight chance that teams maybe visiting Canary Islands?

Ahem. Hate to interrupt the fun...but PLEASE Stay on topic...which is discussion of SPOILERS.

Not wishlists. Not Fantasy routes. Not incorrect info. SPOILER DISCUSSION.

There is a LOT of presentation of routes , legs, Definitive statements etc upstream that are presented as fact when they are definitely NOT and are often purely incorrect.. So be sure that you use "I think", "in my opinion", "perhaps" so that people don't get confused by what is essentially either untrue or unproven info.

Any serious discussion of the SPOILERS is welcomed.

Thanks!

Burkina Faso also had two eliminations.  TAR12.

Anyway, I still think that we have a second leg in Uganda coming up.  I see no way to easily get to another country other than flying again, and they'd surely be seen at its airport if that were the case.

Regarding flights, in earlier seasons, production often used Ryan Air to charter flights to major airports in sub-Saharan or southern Africa. If the company is still around and operates in Uganda, that might be another option out of the country.

Seems to be raining in Uganda and in the forecast too. I'd actually love to see the teams racing in the rain, as long as it's safe. We haven't had that a while on the Race.

(cut to pouring rain outside)

This was from TAR 2. So a rainy weather happening during the filming isn't a new thing to see.

Also, remember Flo's breakdown during a somewhat rainy (it's a small rain/drizzle IIRC?) weather in TAR 3.

I'm super pumped that Bret & Chris are still in it! I'm also really pulling for Victor & Nicole as well! I didn't think they'd be doing as well as they are! Until more pics come in I'm not sure Leo & Jamal can be confirmed.

The only CLEARLY safe teams are Bret & Chris :woohoo:
Victor & Nicole :woohoo:

Well, Becca & Floyd have now been confirmed, and if the verbal sighting can be followed up, so have Rachel & Elissa.

This only leaves Britney & Janelle and Leo & Jamal.  And if there were indeed two legs done, they might both be gone.  If only one, then one of those teams might still be in it, but just went unseen.

So the only teams that haven’t been sighted are Britney/Janelle  :'( & Leo/Jamal. I Hope Britney/Janelle somehow survived this leg.

On another note I’m starting to think that either Victor/Nicole and Colin/Christie are either in the top of the pack or they’re in an alliance because everytime they’re spotted they’re always in a close  proximity of each other. I wonder if either team are savage enough to use a U-Turn on the other team?

If the pictures that Peach posted are chronological then it seems like Tyler & Korey and Victor & Nicole were in 1st/2nd, Bret & Chris wrote third and Colin & Christie arrived 4th.

The first three teams can be seen at a table eating together with no sign of Colin & Christie so I assume they were the first three to arrive!

Post by: Mhillstrom on June 23, 2018, 08:39:29 AM
I guess we need to know what airport they are at. it's about coming up on 4:30pm in Uganga.  If it's Entebbe, there are several places they could be heading, that is if they left within the last 8 or so hours and those places are:

Nairobi, Kenya
Kihihi, Uganda
Kinshasa, Congo
Juba, Sudan
Killimanjaro, Tanszania
Arua, Uganda
Kigali, Rwanda
Johannesburg South Africa

There is a direct flight to Kenya from Entebbe so they really don't have to backtract to Addis Ababa, although there is a flight there too.

If Iga was sending peach pics in real time, then it's more likely Kenya, Congo or Rwanda (possibly Johannesburg).

They were at the airport but in a cafe or food court. (Other pics are clearly at the airport). According to Iga, he saw Rachel but wasn't able to get a pic.

I doubt that.  A team on the way to sequester would've been gone by now.  Even if they weren't, they would be nowhere near the teams still in.  So I think they're still in.

But the next location's photos will have to really shine some light on things.

Counting days. Just a reminder that with crossing wesfwards over the international dateline, Tokyo started on the night of day 2. I still think we've had two countries with two legs, so with Uganda finished and being the fifth country, I still think they've finished seven legs in 13 days. Otherwise filming is going to be several days beyond the normal 21/22 days. That is possible as the ,US Independence Day (July 4) holiday is midweek and raises all sorts of possibilities for the final city in a 23/24 day Race.

I mean it looks like Rachel/Elissa are fine since the person who posted pictures said they spot them, and they knew all of the teams well enough to take photo's of each. So it's really just between Leo/Jamal and Janelle/Brit at this point. Praying for my F/F teams

Speculation
Leg 1: Tokyo (Art/JJ)
Leg 2: Luang Prabang (Bonehams)
Leg 3: HCMC (NEL)
Leg 4: Dubai (Eliza/Corinne)
Leg 5: Uganda (KOR)
Leg 6: Uganda (One of Reillys, Afghanimals, and Jan/Brit)
Leg 7: ? (elimination, 7 -> 6)
Leg 8: ? (elimination, 6 -> 5)
Leg 9: ? (NEL)
Leg 10: ? (elimination, 5 -> 4)
Leg 11: ? (elimination, 4 -> 3)
Leg 12: USA (final 3)

So my guess is we are on Leg 7 right now, but considering theres only +/- 1 week left until the scheduled finish, it is possible that they already used all NEL/KOR legs (either LP or HCMC had two legs) and we are on Leg 8 now.

It's between them and Janelle/Brit. If we get Brit sightings i'll be delighted. And i think Rachel and Elissa are still in, they don't fly out eliminated teams the same time as teams still in the race.

Yeah it might seem that way but there are a lot of times throughout the years that teams end up simply waiting together due to flight times, downtime, finishing close together or whatever.

There is a POSSIBILITY that the teams seen here MAY NOT have been the only ones. There may have been two more earlier.

As far as the teams ahead of the others, why can't we know who they are? Did Iga not know who they were? Was one of those teams Rachel and Elissa?

Post by: rainbowkitten on June 23, 2018, 05:22:01 PM
Is there a possibility that the leg they're coming fresh from was a team swap? I could see Rachel/Elissa and one of Britney/Janelle and Leo/Jamal swapping with each other and then finishing in the lead. Then some combos of Tyler/Korey, Victor/Nicole, Becca/Floyd, and Colin/Christie. Then Bret/Chris could've been paired up with the spare and got whoever got eliminated? Just a theory. It just seems to line up based on who we've seen getting along so far.

And based on that theory, it seems more likely to me that Rachelissa would swap with Britnelle than Leo/Jamal, implying Leo/Jamal left. But that may be wishful thinking. The "physical leg" does seem to imply the opposite in that Leo/Jamal would beat out Britnelle, but I also struggle a little with Rachel/Elissa finishing at the very top of a highly physical leg.

If I knew for sure I would have said! We need to look back at who was NOT seen for the (possible) second fllght but was presumed safe in the previous leg. Rachel and Elissa seem a possibility, but :duno:

I know it doesn’t work out number wise but if it is correct that there were two teams ahead of the other teams wouldn’t it have to be Leo/Jamal and Janelle/Britney?  Some are saying that Rachel/Elissa are probably one of the two teams in the lead but it seems that they were seen by the same source at the same time as the other teams but he couldn’t take a picture.  Unless he was there for a while and saw them earlier but then why didn’t he see the other team that was in the lead?  Is there anyway that both Leo/Jamal and Janelle/Britney are still in it and we’re leading?

Yeah I don't get the reference either.  I even had to check and make sure and indeed The Frats never even visited Switzerland in either TAR1 or TAR11.

And the JVJ cheese Fast Forward was on the start of the 9th Leg (The "Why'd you have to take your pants off?!" Leg lol) leaving Grindelwald after the falls.

If you zoom in on the photo and look out the window behind the group, you see a huge pillar, looks
like it could be underground or something. Also you see more light there as well.

Britney is clearly holding her passport and a plane ticket inside that. Seems to be on a gangway to me.

The most important thing though is figuring out what airport its in.

I just looked at the girl's facebook profile and, while most recent activity is not public, if you look at her recently added friends, one of the two lives in Kampala, Uganda. Seems unlikely that a student athlete from Oregon would befriend a Kampala resident unless they were in Uganda. And, Entebbe airport does have jet bridges in the style of that photo (https://www.instagram.com/p/wmqlMtv0bs/?hl=en&taken-at=263705643). Combined with the fact that we know everyone else left during the day and this was at night, I'd say it's not looking good for Brit/Janelle unless this photo was posted VERY delayed from when they arrived (but the passport + boarding pass looks like departure).

No, it's just that the only other possibility is Leo/Jamal, who are like cockroaches you step on many times but never die. And this picture isn't proof enough that they are still in the race (no cameramen in sight, looks like they're boarding a plane when the sun isn't up, and they look very tired in the pic).

So we still need sightings of them in Europe for confirmation

I don't think that's true.  Brit and Janelle are very popular with a lot of fans.  For a lot of female fans of BB, Janelle was our first "girl crush" and Brit has a killer sense of humor.

It's almost sad, really.  Teams heading to sequester or already in sequester are rarely captured on tape or camera (Jordan & Jeff and Cedric & Shawn were two very rare, coincidental exceptions).

Britney & Janelle are there, on camera, so it's clear to me that they're alive.

No, it's just that the only other possibility is Leo/Jamal, who are like cockroaches you step on many times but never die.

No.  We don't.  That sighting is more than enough.  Just because there are no camera crews doesn't mean they aren't around them.  Remember that they weren't around the eight teams in the pic they all took before.  Besides, back in TAR18, there was that sighting of Kisha & Jen on that train from Liechtenstein to Switzerland, and their camera crew wasn't filming, either, lending to the thought that they were decoys.  Turns out that they just weren't allowed to film en route to Switzerland.  So that could apply here.  Or they are filming, and the Swiss people around them just didn't want them in the shot.

Agreed, they could have been boarding the plane to Switz or de-boarding in Switz!  My bet is on de-boarding because they had their passports ready. If they were boarding, chances are they would have already put them away by the time they boarded.

They'd be contractually not allowed to advertise it. I'm sure companies sign NDAs when they allow the race to work with them, so it's highly unlikely. Maybe after the episode airs, then they'd get the liberty to brag.

Well, Switzerland has numerous adrenaline entertainment companies. Bungee adventures are one of their specialties due to the region's immense valleys and ridges. Plus, I backpacked in Grindelwald just last summer and it's breathtakingly beautiful this time of year! Great time to go adventure-spotting and it's a nice change from the snow-covered resort legs we last saw in 22 and Chamonix, France in 28! Hope we unearth more photos from this leg because I'm travel-geeking to the max. (Praying they take a train to Milan afterward :0328:.)

Firstbahn sounds like a very possible venue for the summertime conditions. They offer different slightly eye-catching activities during this time of year like mountain carting, the highly promoted "First gliding" from the tourism website which tandems a giant eagle contraption above the clients' ziplining harnesses, and biking up and down the rugged terrain is always a distinct possibility anywhere within Jungfrau in warmer daytime conditions.

We may get to experience Interlaken momentarily as there is a mandatory disembarkment between there and the train service to Grindelwald.

It seems on track and plausible to me. During TAR28, we had the same number of teams who had been eliminated by the time leg 7 began. Four teams out - seven teams still in.

Post by: rainbowkitten on June 24, 2018, 12:01:11 PM
I think the thing is that you can't control who takes photos of teams in a race environment. If you're in the Switzerland airport and someone wants a photo with you, you can't control that since you're juggling 6 or 7 teams and can't police them all. Plus, all it does is prove they're still in and that's not a huge deal. With sequester, it's one team going one way and would absolutely spoil their elimination since they're going to a place different from the rest. You can easily control that and keep them in secret.

Keep in mind, each team has a camera crew, production staff and security are there, and so there's more than just the teams around. And if all the remaining teams are at an airport or a train station at the same time, all those other people will be there too.

I'm speculating on 3 things. One is that Rachel & Elissa are eliminated (which I hope not) because our contact in Uganda could not get a picture of them. Why was he able to take pictures freely with the others especially Tyler & Korey and Becca & Floyd. Maybe because, the production did not want him to get a "scoop" that Rachel & Elissa might have been eliminated. What are the odds of striking a conversation with them, it is possible and production are taking a precautionary measure to avoid spoilers. The second one, is Rachel & Elissa just have a strict production/crew with them and they would not allow pictures to be taken. I don't know if that is far fetched.... The third is because Leo & Jamal are eliminated because they were not seen but then again, they flew under the radar and just popped out of nowhere in Dubai heading to Uganda when they where speculated to be eliminated in Laos.

Janelle & Britney's sighting also adds to the confusion. Are they still in it or not???

Rachel & Elissa are in.  If dryedmangoez and whoever knows this Iga Phillip and believes his word, then his word can be trusted.  Britney & Janelle are also in.  They wouldn't have had their packs with them if they were going to sequester.  They'd have checked them in by that point.  It's that simple.

Safe through Uganda:
Bret & Chris
Colin & Christie
Nicole & Victor
Tyler & Korey
Team Fun

All of these teams were seen TOGETHER at some point and I don't think they allow eliminated teams mingle with teams that are still racing!

At risk until we get more information are still:
Leo & Jamal
Rachel & Elissa
Janelle & Britney

I'm hoping a European country like Switzerland will net us some more concrete evidence about who is left and what they are doing!

I agree with Joberio's assessment, but I do have one question. Why are teams assumed not to want to keep their packs with them on their way to sequester considering it does have their personal things in it?

I have been scouring instagram and so far nothing... Sigh I used #TheAmazingRace, #TAR, #Grindelwald, #EigerGletscher.  I did see something that looked interesting and I sent the link to Peach to review.  BTW, if you have not seen any pics of Grindelwald you should check it out... Breathtaking!

Eliminated teams may well have checked their backpacks in as luggage, also, IIRC, teams prepare a second bag of clothing for sequester that they get once they are in sequester.

Wasn't there a picture of Cedric or Shawn last season taken after he was eliminated on a bus somewhere while he was supposed to be in sequester? 

Although the fact the Brit/Janelle both have their backpacks on, and their passports out and in hand make me think they were still in the race (at least when this photo was taken)..  They seem to ready to go to not still be racing

Rachel & Elissa are in.  If dryedmangoez and whoever knows this Iga Phillip and believes his word, then his word can be trusted.  Britney & Janelle are also in.  They wouldn't have had their packs with them if they were going to sequester.  They'd have checked them in by that point.  It's that simple.
I just want to say, I don't know Iga Phillip personally, but do know he's a TAR fan and I remember his tweets even being discussed here on RFF in the past when talking about different ideas for challenges and tasks, etc. So I can trust his word as far as someone who follows and enjoys TAR, follows spoilers and would have no reason to lie or make stuff up.

That said, airport pictures can't even be taken as 100% proof of a team's safety anymore. As evidenced by the Siem Reap group photo. So all this dissecting of what little information we have has actually seemed to have negative effects instead of being helpful.
Title: Re: TAR 31: Speculation and Discussion of the **SPOILERS** WORKZONE!
Post by: Kamineko on June 24, 2018, 01:08:34 PM
I think we're starting to get into the same mess that was happening during Vietnam/Dubai. Taking what little information we have and twisting it or interpreting it to fit whatever outcome we want and hope for. Which then starts to muddy and confuse already established, even confirmed evidence.

OMG.  Everything's been laid out plainly and simply, everybody.  Why must you all proceed to overthink and overcomplicate it?

Just my two cents, but I think all of these speculations happen because of the teams are familiar to all of us and they have a fanbase of their own before the race began. I'm 100% sure that IF the racers are ordinary people, this mayhem won't happen.

Many of us here that are a fan of a specific team don't want to believe that the team they're rooting for are eliminated unless there's a sighting of every team racing and the team they're rooting are not there. And for that sake, all we have to do is believing that the other team that they're not rooting for are eliminated and the team they're rooting is safe. We can't conclude anything from the fact that someone was blocked to take a photo of Rachel means that Rachel & Elissa are eliminated. Having a strict production team around them is also possible. Why they blocked someone else to take a photo of the team? Because it's their job to do so.

IIRC, the production crew like cameramen are switching teams that they follow every leg (can someone tell me if it's correct or not). So maybe Rachel & Elissa this time get this strict production. Maybe in the future, another team (let's say Team A) will get this production as well and maybe some of us will also think that they're eliminated as well because the production won't let any pictures of Team A are taken.

One question, maybe I missed reading about this, but was Rachel & Elissa sighting are around the same time as the other teams sighting at the airport? Because I'm not that sure about teams still in race are going to the next location and the team that was eliminated are in the airport within the same period of time. Or probably it had happened before?

It'd seem odd to me to go as far north as Amsterdam to connect to a much more southern country of Switzerland, so I think Amsterdam might be sequester.

When I looked at her tweet replies, she didn’t mention anyone else. It looks like they are in the gate bridge waiting to board in the picture so it would make sense that the poster said the picture was taken in Uganda before flying to Amsterdam.

On June 23, a KLM flight departed EBB for Amsterdam at 11:35pm. (Daily flight at the same time) So the dark/night photo of them boarding the plane would fit with that departure time.

There's no direct flights between Entebbe and anywhere in Switzerland I believe. So Amsterdam is one of the many available connections.

And TAR's list of allowed airlines is interesting. I remember we got a glimpse of the list last year (the Additional Info sheet of paper) and it included some airlines that were surprising since there's no discernible reason (at least from the public's point of view) for some of the airlines to essentially be banned on TAR. Unless it's not a safety reason.

It’s weird that there are direct flights between Entebbe and Dubai but they chose to connect in Ethiopia. Maybe the airlines with direct flights weren’t considered safe?

Hard to believe Emirates (one of the 2 direct flights) wouldn't be considered safe.

Listen, of all the teams in this race, I really only like Britney/Janelle. Every other team has at least one member I really dislike. But it's time to be realistic. The source of that photo has said they were flying out of Uganda to Amsterdam at a time when the rest of the teams would've almost been in Switzerland already. So either they are extremely behind and likely going to just fizzle out in the Switzerland leg or they're eliminated and heading to an Amsterdam sequester. Anything else is just naive and wishful thinking.

Or in other words, what Sebonack said.

I am sorry, but do we know 100% the other teams were in Zurich when Janie and Brit were flying to Amsterdam? Is there proof that I missed somewhere? :duno:
Nope.  Just more spitballing.

I’m just going off of Peach saying that they were in Switzerland en route to Grinelwald last night  :duno:

I doubt Peach would have said anything unless the destination/location information was vetted first.

If a team is seen several hours behind other teams departing for another country, it is nearly 100% certain they are headed to sequester. Production normal separates that team upon elimination from the remaining teams, has a decompression process before sending to sequester. In past seasons, the later eliminated teams wouldn't go to sequester but travel with production, and sometimes are used as decoys on legs separated from the remaining teams. It could have changed in very recent seasons, but as far as I know, production is likely still following that pattern.

What if Janelle and Britney are going to arrive late and the leg in Grindelwald is a NEL and the next leg is a house of operations leg so that they at least have a chance to catch up if they are hours behind

What we have here is a case of fans of the team not willing to accept the facts that Janelle and Britney are headed to sequester. I believe this issue has been settled and we need to continue on.

Well if Jani and Brit are out, ill be rooting for Elissa and Rachel.

TAR should really stop allowing groups of 4 or 3 teams work together as a pack.

Ruins the show and makes it too predictable.

Yes im talking about Vicole team fun and that other group.

I could see that, yeah. The first time they did it was just a test of the concept, so naturally, a Non-Elimination.

The second time is the real deal. No mercy.

Eliminated teams may well have checked their backpacks in as luggage, also, IIRC, teams prepare a second bag of clothing for sequester that they get once they are in sequester.

Or NOT. We have seen plenty of teams with their packs on the way to sequester.

Britney and Janelle were on a flight to Amsterdam. Confirmed by a group of people who posted a picture with them and were on their same flight. It’s not 100% proof that sequester is in Amsterdam Because it could have just been a layover to somewhere else but that is where the idea came from.

JMO = just my opinion

i guess double elimination during partner swap is feasible considering the amount of possible legs earlier with a lot of teams still racing. They might have a couple of NEL/KOR to prepare for a top 8 partner swap in uganda.

If Leo/Jamal were also eliminated with Janie/Brit, why weren't they going to sequester with the girls?  I am just saying, I would think that sequestered teams likely have a handler that may have put a kibosh to fan photos of eliminated teams, especially this season with what could be triple the fans on the lookout.

I think both Leo and Jamal and Janelle and Britney got cut in Uganda, only Rachel and Elissa survived.

And i believe they already wrapped up the (first?) Switzerland leg so we're probably down to 5 teams now, with possibly 4 legs left (2 eliminations + one more NEL + finale). Just my prediction

Rereading this thread...

Just saying: We have NO EVIDENCE FOR A PARTNER SWAP. NO EVIDENCE.

An Emmy AD does not mean Partner Swap. Could happen, BUT THE AD DOES NOT MEAN ANYTHING itself.

So please STOP posting that we have one. That is NOT known.

Yep. Won't know that one for sure until the show comes out.

But if the early season previews have Phil voice over saying "...and the partner swap returns" during a clip of them somewhere that's clearly Africa, then it's probably likely at that point.

Likelihoods of the final non-elimination/to-be-continued leg?

At F7: to continue those of the most recent odd-numbered seasons, e.g. 27's 8-7-6 and 29's 7-6-5

At F6: to mimic UB

At F5: to resemble 24

At F4: to imitate last season

I do think both Leo & Jamal and Janelle & Britney are out in Uganda due to double elimination that happened in Uganda and what they are taking with partner swap.

JMO = just my opinion

i guess double elimination during partner swap is feasible considering the amount of possible legs earlier with a lot of teams still racing. They might have a couple of NEL/KOR to prepare for a top 8 partner swap in uganda.

The partner swap idea that keeps going around here has no factual evidence to back that up. The flashback posted on the social media pages were nothing more than Emmy promotion. They aren't going to spoil their own show.

That is exactly what I think. There is no evidence pointing that they will do team swap this time or in which leg, I do not think this is likely or if they do it they may just do it like last time as a KOR. That would be more fair.

Speaking of whether who is in and who is out, I think it is best to base on photo evidence only.

How on earth do we believe that Amsterdam is sequester? ???

We DO NOT. :)

I think there’re many possibilities. Even if they’re really eliminated and to be sequestered, Amsterdam can still be a transit point to sequester, especially there may not be many flights out of Uganda to Europe. Anyway I think they will stay in somewhere easy to fly back the US.

I think it’s not too bad since they just arrived Europe not long, and we have confirmed sightings of a few teams already, just not for all teams left but at least 5 teams.

It really depends on the part of Europe they head next, if they film in more urban area, we are more likely to get sightings, though if they head to a more rural part of the country, we might lose them until they resurface. Adding to this, is they might travel by train, instead of planes if they remain within Europe.

If they indeed ran a leg anywhere today there is a chance. Just a matter of finding them! Instagram, Twitter, FB, even Flickr using #AmazingRace, #TheAmazingRace, #TAR, #TAR31, #each of their names, #Filming, #CameraCrews, #Americans, #AmericanRacers, #AmericanswithBackpacks, #USRacers... Just to name several.  Anyone else use other #'s??? What are they???

It's just after 10:00pm in Zurich (not saying they are still there) so maybe people haven't uploaded their pics yet or. just like Peach said, they had a down day today to do whatever. Sight see, shop, laundry, hang out...

Maybe if not today, then maybe by tomorrow morning we will see something...

Usually a "down day" gives production a chance to get ahead of the teams for the next leg, which may also involve an overnight release from the pit stop. That would be dictated by the location the next leg would take place in, as well as limiting the available travel options for the remaining teams.

I don't think anyone thinks Amsterdam is sequester.  I think they may be in route to sequester.

I think the bigger red flag was they'd be so far behind.

And please remember:

Do NOT attempt to reprimand other posters. If something concerns you, please use the report to mod button.

And be KIND. LOVE (or okay...at least LIKE!!) each other. Work TOGETHER.

And do your best to help...there is so much we still don't know!!

Quick question. If asking this here is the wrong place then sorry. People are saying that Jemal, Leo and Brit, and Janie were eliminated in a double elimination. My only question was HAS that ever happened in TAR in a prior season. Because it just seems a little strange to me. I wouldn't be surprised if Leo and Jemal popped back up in Switzerland.

It has happened once in the USA version as far as I can recall.

It wouldn't be strange for them to pop up no. I wasn't around back then but I've read that certain teams had been missing for like 5 legs only to pop up later.

There is NO EVIDENCE for a double elimination.

But it is not impossible either. But not sure we need one to explain sightings? ???

We all know NOT SEEN does not mean NOT THERE.

Just look at the Tyler/Korey resurrection this time!

But just count back from Finale. Chances are good that we are at 5 teams now with one more NEL ahead at either Leg 9 or 10.

I don't think we have room for any "hidden" teams now. :(

I was going to comment on this (but wasn't sure if it was discussed while I was away this weekend).

If Britney/Janelle were indeed the only team on that flight then a double elimination isn't possible.  They would have been heading to sequester with Leo/Jamal.

I truly believe the only way two teams were eliminated in Ugnada was if there were two legs (and I believe current belief is this is not the case).

I think 7 teams headed to Switzerland - until Leo/Jamal are spotted I'm going to assume Brit/Janelle were in last place heading to Switzerland.

I also feel like the double elimination was really not well received - I can't imagine them bringing it back - especially in a season like this.

I think the reason the double elimination thing keeps coming up is because we all assume there is one leg in Uganda, and 8 teams were spotted going to Uganda or in Uganda. Unless one of these teams was a decoy.

Three options:
2 legs in Uganda, two teams eliminated
1 leg in Uganda, one team eliminated and 7 teams left Uganda, and we missed one at the airport
1 leg in Uganda, and we only had 7 teams to began with (One was a decoy)

For the record we have evidence of 7 teams leaving Uganda for Europe.

We have evidence of only 6 teams actually making it to Switzerland.

The person from the Uganda airport seems really credible and knew the teams (so I'm skeptical of Leo/Jamal not being seen).

I'm leaning toward Brit/Janelle just falling super far behind - maybe they'll luck out with like an overnight on that Glacier.   Otherwise Leg 7 might be a super boring episode.....

Just a thought. Could the "off day" been a moving pit stop, like TAR 3? If might explain the lack of sightings per the last 48 hours or so.

I believe Brittany and Janelle were almost certainly eliminated in Uganda and any sightings after that were on the way to sequester.

Sorry. :(

We saw a team running in the Zurich airport at 7:15 PM on June 27. One of the team members was wearing an orange shirt but I couldn't make out any more.

I know teams can and have worn outfits that don't match their original color but I believe Becca is the only person spotted in an orange shirt so far!

Actually, that is not our source or where we got the picture from.  We confirmed with our source of the picture that it was indeed filming for our TAR 31 race.  So in fact like Jess and Cody Army stated on twitter  we knew the location and can confirm it was for TAR 31.  :woohoo: :cheer:

Reply to Blue Skies.  It wasn’t a competition for me. I posted my IG link NOT knowing they would have two different filming  going on at the hotel. It was to disprove that TAR was being filmed there when I saw the post via Team Jody. After Peach confirmed the PIT stop I asked her to delete my post to avoid exactly what is happening now. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Leg 2: Luang Prabang (Bonehams)
Leg 3: HCMC (NEL?)
Leg 4: Dubai (Eliza/Corinne?)
Leg 5: Uganda (Janelle/Britney)
Leg 6: Switzerland (elim, ?)
Leg 7: Switzerland (elim, ?)

We are prob down to 5 teams rn, 2 teams out in Switzerland, and 5 legs left to go including finale? Or maybe Uganda and/or HCMC had two legs?

Well there are only 3 M/M teams left... Bret & Chris, Tyler & Korey, Leo & Jamal.

We can effectively rule out these pics as Bret & Chris because of size and stature, so it's either Tyler & Korey or Leo & Jamal.

Tyler and Leo are both shorter than their partners, and white hat is shorter than their partner, which means white hat is either Tyler or Leo. Based on the length/coloration of the beard I think we can safely assume it's Leo!

Now, just a general reply to everyone... Since there was over an hour between the two sightings, could Leo and Jamal be running as decoys? That might be something TAR would do to throw us off!

Post by: Mhillstrom on June 27, 2018, 06:20:12 PM
Ya know, I am just putting out possibilities.  They have had teams running as decoys before. One of the big clues with Janie and Brit was no Cameramen.  Just because they have never done something before...Ever, doesn't mean they wouldn't do it now.  TPTB read what we say and may have decided to make it look more real. LOL

I do suppose an hour between teams is reasonable... It's also possible the other teams were still in Zurich waiting for their flight at the gate or maybe there was more than one flight to the same place?  Maybe one or the other had to change planes somewhere? Hummm So many scenarios!

Lufthansa: Dresden, Hanover, Frankfurt, Munich, Cologne, Hamburg, Berlin, Nuremberg, Athens, Stuggart, Sao Paulo
Austrian Air: Vienna, Nuremberg
SWISS: London, Dresden, Hanover, Paris, London, Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin, Milan, Amsterdam, Athens, Vienna, Cairo, Tel Aviv, Stuggart, Johannesburg

Post by: cbacbacba1 on June 27, 2018, 06:45:09 PM
Just my opinion, teams are probably changing planes, instead of flying directly from Zurich to their final destination

In recent seasons, if direct flights are involved for within Europe flying, most of the time they have teams release Early in the morning instead of late at night (TAR30 leg 2, TAR25 leg 3)

Furthermore, i don't see the production would let teams flying to nearby countries like Germany / Austria / France, when there frequent trainb service available, especially in the current days where TAR has a much tighter budget :duno:

Just my opinion though
Title: Re: TAR 31: Speculation and Discussion of the **SPOILERS** WORKZONE!
Post by: dryedmangoez on June 27, 2018, 06:50:34 PM
That can certainly help narrow down possibilities as well.

And if that Detroit article is true, there's definitely plenty of time for four Legs (assuming we're currently on Leg 9) including a July 3 finale.

I'm a bit skeptical about the Detroit story. TAR has been doing this for 17 years now and I can't believe they would not have their permits done up and in order well in advance. Also, I'm mildly dubious about them having an open call for volunteers and still apparently accepting people even now. Still, it's worth keeping an eye out for other clues pointing to Detroit. I'm not sure they have ever held a final leg in Detroit, so that would be a point in it's favor.

Wait, is Detroit a planned final destination city? It has been a decline of recession in the last 10 years. Many of American car businesses were shut down and houses became abandoned.

At least if producers don't choose Detroit that is a ghost town and maybe some American cities rather than Detroit that Miami or Atlanta would be an alternate choice as the final city.

According to the link above, Phil and the production crew would be there for props and shooting tasks on July 3rd.

All just my opinion

I know teams can and have worn outfits that don't match their original color but I believe Becca is the only person spotted in an orange shirt so far!

5 Continents, 9 Countries would fit the whole season but unless they want each remaining legs as single then 10 Countries. I'd prefer have another leg in Europe then go to South America for a penultimate leg.

When I saw the teams in the airport, they both already had tickets. The check in counters are split up, so the only ones they had already passed were Swiss, EasyJet, and Vueling. Both teams were running despite already having tickets, so the flight may have been leaving shortly.

https://www.freep.com/story/entertainment/music/2018/06/27/seven-nation-army-amazing-race-detroit-belle-isle-denied-musicians-white-stripes/739645002/


And as to this:
Wait, is Detroit a planned final destination city? It has been a decline of recession in the last 10 years. Many of American car businesses were shut down and houses became abandoned.

At least if producers don't choose Detroit that is a ghost town and maybe some American cities rather than Detroit that Miami or Atlanta would be an alternate choice as the final city.

According to the link above, Phil and the production crew would be there for props and shooting tasks on July 3rd.

All just my opinion

Please double check the facts. The City has been out of bankruptcy for several years, blighted or abandoned neighborhoods have been demolished and cleared, and much business activity and growth has returned to the city core. And Ford announced earlier this month it is renovating, repurposing and expanding its corporate headquarters campus to centrlize all of its employees in the local area. Doesn't sound like a ghost town to me, but a city in renaissance. It could well be a city that would make sense as the final city.
I'm not speculating whether the city is or isn't a final destination city, but 'I would point out it borders Windsor, Ontario, Canada, a country TAR hasn't visited in quite a while.

IMO, they will spend Legs 9 and 10 in Europe (in a country such as Serbia, Croatia, Latvia or Slovenia) and then spend Leg 11 in Toronto, Canada and then have Leg 12 in Detroit!  :tup:

What if they have a KOR leg? THAT would cut down a 12 hour rest stop period.

The original call for musicians said rehearsal would be about 3:00 PM with filming beginning @ 6:00PM. I Will definitely be in downtown  Detroit tuesday afternoon. If the finish line is downtown there are a few big open areas it could be in and will be fairly easy to see.

So confirmed in Croatia are Tyler & Korey and Nicole & Victor, and based off of airport sightings Leo & Jamal are safe as well.

Still not confirmed sightings of Rachel & Elissa, Bret & Chris, Colin & Christie, Team Fun??

Split has a really small airport, most of its destinations are European cities. If they want to fly out from Split to non-european destinations, it is almost guranteed that they will connect through Zagreb or big hubs like Frankfurt, Zurich and Munich.

Otherwise, they may take a ferry to Bari or Venice in Italy for flying out. The ferry is around 12 hr long and they did that in season 12 too.

Yes, I wrote Croatia on the wishlist thread that I was thinking to put Zagreb on visit, but Split is beautiful with stunning Mediterranean coastline with a famous landmark called Diocletian's Palace. It could be good for water polo activities.

Of the teams that left Uganda to Switzerland:

Airport leaving Switzerland - Someone in orange shirt with camera crew (Becca/Floyd?) and Leo/Jamal
In Croatia - Tyler/Korey and Nicole/Victor

Not seen yet - Colin/Christie, Rachel/Elisa, Chris/Brett

Right?

Rachel/Elissa were spotted in the 2nd leg of Switzerland, so if both legs were elimination rounds that means 1 of Colin/Christie or Brett/Chris are out.

Teams can either stay in Croatia/go to other Slavic countries such as Montenegro,Bosnia

I'm pretty sure the 1st leg of Switzerland has to be an elimination. Swiss Leg 1 would be leg 7, assuming a final 3 in the finale, that would mean 5 legs to get rid of 4 teams. They wouldn't use a non-elim that early, and then have Legs 8-11 all be eliminations in a row.

With the route now going downwards, I am hoping the penultimate leg will be in Africa (Morocco/Senegal) before they head back to US. This will be the first time it will happen in TAR history.

... Otherwise I'm predicting Barcelona. They haven't done a leg there since Season 10, and it was nothing but a transfer point in Season 21.

So assuming Switzerland is 2 elim legs, our probable F5 is Tyler/Korey, Chris/Bret, Victor/Nicole, Leo/Jamal, and probably Becca/Floyd? (Could still be Colin/Christie or the Reillys as the last team).

I feel like they're gonna do one eastern europe and 2 western europe legs. Really getting Switzerland vibes from this season, but who can tell.
I must be psychic.

Ahh croatia. There's that one eastern europe leg I talked about *intuition OP*

Also, many teams (yes, including team Fun) have been spotted in and around Split and it's many forts and fortresses. There's also a travelocity roaming gnome, so pay attention to that factor.

Definitely feel like Spain might be the next country. This is a race that involves returning racers, and based on the abundance of overused countries we got in s18 and s24, I don't think this season will be an exception.
Either Spain or Portugal will take the cake, I feel. But there is that off chance for Africa or Latin America, so...
Title: Re: TAR 31: Speculation and Discussion of the **SPOILERS** WORKZONE!
Post by: claude_24hrs on June 28, 2018, 11:29:02 AM
I guess Latin America is more likely in abundance of many Spanish-speaking countries (e.g., Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Peru) in that geographical region for two legs. Last season had Europe overload and wouldn't traverse across Western Europe or North Africa.

Post by: JanelleRachelFan on June 28, 2018, 11:36:59 AM
^ There hasn't been a single season of TAR that has had the last non-elimination leg used before leg 8. They have however had multiple seasons that used the last non-elim on leg 8, but i'm thinking even that would be an elim leg this season. Rachel/Elissa were spotted on leg 8, and everyone else has been spotted in Croatia, so Colin/Christie must have been out on leg 7

True, that's my speculation as well.
Leg 7 could be non-elim or KOR given the fact that they stay in the same country next leg, though it may not be a norm but for logistic reason I think that makes more sense.
Then Leg 8 can get the 7th team out, with 6 left, and Leg 9 with 6th team out and 5 left. In this case, there is still a chance that Colin/Christie (or Rachel's team) can be still in.
And don't forget they can still pull a Final 4 in finale situation and eliminate the 4th team midway.. so many possibilities

Post by: BlueSkies on June 28, 2018, 11:43:08 AM
Yes I agree with you that it makes more sense the non elim would be the first leg or even KOR because of the same place. Doesn’t matter about past seasons each season is different and they will try to switch it up of course

If you want to go prematurely Mourn for your favorite team, do it in Bitch and Moan.

THIS THREAD IS FOR FACTS AND SPECULATION ON FACTS---ONLY.

And WE DO NOT KNOW WHO IS STILL THERE Other than by sightings  Leo/Jamal (at departure airport)--/ViCole/--Brett/Chris--/Tyler/Korey--Becca/Floyd Seen so far today (did I miss anyone while I am cleaning up this mess??)

There should be FIVE (or maybe even SIX teams if Switz 2 was a NEL)) left with at least one more NEL to come.

So we still have a POSSIBILITY of One more team anyway. Not a sure thing but...possible.

So please...go look for sightings and stop moaning here. I will move some posts THIS time, but from here on out I am just deleting, Time is precious right now, lets use it wisely!

Mhillstorm I totally thought that was the case as well. Looked like Floyd just finished the roadblock and they were reading the clue. The gnome is wearing a lifevest so either next was the swimming type challenge or it was before. There is also a gnome sitting next to the guy in the castle on the other pictures from the Instagram account that posted Becca/Floyd doing the task. Just a thought :)

The only scenario where one of Colin/Christie and Rachel/Elissa are still in the race:

Leg 1: Tokyo (Art/JJ)
Leg 2: Laos (Bonehams)
Leg 3: Vietnam (KOR/NEL)
Leg 4: Vietnam (Eliza/Corinne)
Leg 5: Dubai (KOR/NEL)
Leg 6: Uganda (Janelle/Britney)
Leg 7: Switzerland (NEL)
Leg 8: Switzerland (Reillys OR Colin/Christie)

IF this is the timeline, then we are on Leg 9 now in Croatia with 6 teams left, 5 or 4 days until finale, and no more NELs.

Leg 9: Croatia (Elimination)
Leg 10: TBD (Elimination)
Leg 11: TBD (Elimination)
Leg 12: USA (Finale)

The thing that makes me think both Reillys and Colin/Chris were out in Switzerland, though, is i doubt that all NELs have already been used. When was the time they didn't have a NEL on the last 4 legs? Is it rare?

Post by: ISpyWorldwide on June 28, 2018, 04:23:17 PM
I think they're more likely to use NELs early on seasons with recognizable cast, like Social Media season or Unfinished Business all used their last one on Leg 8. So it's very possible they wanted to keep teams in as long as they could and used the NELs early. But I guess no way of knowing until we get more sightings

New pic of Nicole and Victor with the gnome next to a clue box. They both seem to be looking in the same direction out over the distance. It sort of looks like the clue is red so maybe they're at the roadblock?

I was thinking, if the times the pictures were posted correlate to the times they were taken, would that mean Nicole and Victor are behind? Not saying it's true, but I speculate that it could mean that.

Munich could have been a layover between Switzerland and Croatia, or it could be a KOR after Croatia.

I can't recall, I remember last year there was no elimination at the KOR, but do they always do NEL with KOR, or can a KOR be an elim leg?

I agree that it was probably just a stop over to Croatia. The video of Bret/Chris was posted at 5:30 pm Croatia time and looked to be about live based on her other videos. Unless Vicole was soooo far ahead they wouldn’t get to Munich before the sun was down. 👍🏻

There is/was a flight out of Split to Munich at 5:05pm and the duration is just over an hour. IF they made that flight, they could have easily made it to Munich before sundown. I am just putting that out there...

Pictures/Videos in Croatia may or may not have been in real time.  If they were, then it's likely they didn't make the flight to Munich. But if they were posted sometime after they were taken, ie, when whoever got home or went to have a meal or rest, then it's possible.

Instagram stories are usually in real time so I think it’s safe to say they were in Split today (well yesterday in Croatia time) I guess it’s possible they were in Munich afterwards but I don’t think it’s too likely! Probably transit.

Yeah, i said it may not be likely, I was just saying that it could be possible if pics and stuff were posted later than when they were actually taken.

On that note, there were ferries leaving anywhere between 5pm and 8pm Croatia time (yesterday).  There are a few leaving in a couple hours, Croatia time. (7:30am and up to 11:45am).

I live in Detroit. I can camp out all day on the 3rd and go to all the popular areas looking for crews. If necessary, I could go to the airport and wait as well but that is last case scenario and will be boring. In the meantime, do we think they will be coming from Europe before finale? Would they do a short stop in Canada before Detroit? I am trying to look at possible flights into DTW that day internationally that would permit them to race around the city before it gets dark at 10 pm.

About searching in Detroit. Are there likely places where production could control entry so that the winner can't be spoiled. Last season they used an aircraft carrier for the final task and pit stop. Makes me wonder about the Belle Isle story. Could they close the whole place off from the public?

Oh yeah by saying “real time” I meant they’re usually posted right when they take them, so if it said 6 hours ago then it probably is actually from 6 hours ago. Different from people’s regular IG posts that usually aren’t in real time just cause they sometimes stop to edit them or just post later.

Looked into the travel company cited in the live sightings thread. Looks like they offer daily tours to locations along the Dalmatian coast and they do not appear to be international in scope/offer airline tickets. So I believe this may indeed be a second Croatian leg.

According to the live sightings. Wouldn’t Tyler and Korey be close in time to Victor and Nicole bc of the travel agency pictures. They might have been before them because the person wasn’t sure if there was anymore. It would make sense to me they were around the same time as vicole

I don't remember seeing Becca and Floyd at the travel agency at the same time.  All the stories and pictures I saw were Nicole/Victor and Tyler/Korey together and then Becca/Floyd there separately.  I think what might be confusing is the two stories back to back from the travel agency on Instagram.

EDIT: The two stories from the travel agency of the teams are two different stories with a picture in between as described above.  When posted on here, the person just pushed the two stories together for the video.

I don't remember seeing Becca and Floyd at the travel agency at the same time.  All the stories and pictures I saw were Nicole/Victor and Tyler/Korey together and then Becca/Floyd there separately.  I think what might be confusing is the two stories back to back from the travel agency on Instagram.

EDIT: The two stories from the travel agency of the teams are two different stories with a picture in between as described above.  When posted on here, the person just pushed the two stories together for the video.

Repost them here please?

If it's the Dalmations does that mean Croatia or the entire Balkans coast.

We could see, Dubrovnik or the islands like Brac, Pula or Rijeka. Montengero would be nice.

Instagram stories from rivatravelcroatia

https://streamable.com/1ndsn

https://streamable.com/p1dr2

They had a picture on their Instagram story of just Vicole and Tyler/Korey and then a picture on their Instagram page of just Becca/Floyd so I don't think they were all there together.

 Since the person that watched some of the “rap” task said that Victor and Nicole receive the clue and left, Becca and Floyd plus Leo and Jamall were struggling and Chris & Brett got frustrated and left Could we speculate that Tyler and Korey probably completed that task first?
Also by this point in the legs would all of the U-turns been used?

At this point, all of the U-Turns should be gone.  And I'm betting that one of them took out Colin & Christie, assuming they've been booted by now.

So they won't be going to Ancona by ferry as there is no service on Fridays. I am looking at ferry schedules and so far, there is one ferry at 11:45am to Rogac. Croatia and the rest leave late afternoon starting about 4:15pm to various places. Brac was only morning ferries and if they were at the agency at 11am, they missed them. No afternoon or evening ferries to brac.  Not seeing ferries to Pula. I am guessing because it's an inland town? Rijeka has 1 Ferry daily 7:30pm. No ferries to Montengero.

I wonder what Victor meant by 'There was one'. Hummmm

If he means flights, these are the places with only one flight out of Split Airport leaving between 12pm-12am

Denmark
Netherlands
Belgium
Germany
Sweden
England UK
Russia
Italy
France
Czech Republic
Switzerland

I know the date fits, but I still have a hard time believing this. The final 3 would be all over the internet within minutes, even if people sign NDA's. Tha'ts just too many people to keep quiet. Unless they try to fake people out and have a bunch of decoy teams participate as well. Or I suppose they could be filming the event while teams are doing something somewhat nearby out of view and kind of splice it together.

If they ARE going to Detroit, I think it would be worth checking the hours of various car museums. See if any are closed for a 'private event' on Tuesday. There has to be some kind of car challenge or at least visit if heading to Detroit.

Is Amsterdam locked in for a leg? I feel like Amsterdam might just be transit cause of Schipol like TAR30 ?
But still, Amsterdam may just be locked in for Leg 10 (or 9,11 whatever)

I think I may have found where they are headed!

Plane was scheduled to leave Split at 3:30pm (Croatia Time) and land in Amsterdam at 6pm Netherlands time but the plane was/is delayed but it's 7:22pm so I imagine the plane has already arrived.

Fingers crossed for non-Amsterdam leg!

I looked over flights from South America to Detroit for next Tuesday and my impression is that the timing just doesn't work out. The flights mostly arrive either early to mid morning or in the late afternoon/early evening. That doesn't fit with what we know about the timing of the the 1000 member band filming. Also, there aren't any nonstop flights and TAR prefers those for the final leg.

IG poster said that film crews were watching the tower in Kampen, getting ready for games tomorrow all for the Amazing Race. One of her #'s was #manyamericanshere, which I speculate is American film crews and production bigwigs. I put it all together and thought, BINGO! I guess time will tell, but, I have a strong hunch that is where they are headed.

Just checked on the flight from Split to Amsterdam that was delayed... It says it arrived 23:39pm (11:39pm) but it's only 10:30pm there. Okey Dokey! LOL  Anyhoo, IF they flew, they are in Amsterdam now!

BTW, just a little funny... this is in reply to a reply somewhere. Now I can't remember the number and I can't find the post I was repling to. LOL Losing My mind!

I think Central America could be our penultimate leg.

Regarding about the penultimate leg that we've talking about, and this time could be Colombia that Bogota is definitely likely for a large city penultimate destination. Colombia is an underused country.

Anyway as Plaidmoon talking about the flights, here is the possible schedule:

American 1130 to Miami, departs at 0655 (6:55 am) and arrives at 1155 (11:55 am)
American 4483 to Detroit, departs at 1339 (1:39 pm) and arrives at 1646 (4:46 pm)

Delta 980 to Atlanta, departs at 0710 (7:10 am) and arrives at 1309 (1:09 pm)
Delta 902 to Detroit, departs at 1455 (2:55 pm) and arrives at 1657 (4:57 pm)

The scheduled arrivals are fit for timings in the finale before projected 5 pm arrival.

ALL SPEC THAT IS JMO

Het gaat om The Amazing Race, blijkt uit een toelichting van de producent. Al wil die de naam 'noch bevestigen noch ontkennen'. In het programma beginnen twaalf duo's aan een reis rond de wereld. Na opdrachten valt steeds een duo af. Het Nederlandse programma Peking Express lijkt er op. Kampen figureert in het 31ste seizoen, dat waarschijnlijk in het najaar wordt uitgezonden op CBS.

Tussen de 7 en 10 miljoen Amerikanen zien het IJsselfront en de oude binnenstad. Want de makers zijn niet vies van cultuur en folklore. Zo rijden zaterdag wild vreemde Amerikanen op een tractor, met als passagier een nepkoe. Die even later in de Nieuwe Toren wordt gehesen. Terwijl het carillon klinkt en stadsomroeper Bertus Krabbe aanmoedigt. Continu hijgt een cameraploeg in de nek.

Google Translation:

It is The Amazing Race, according to an explanation from the producer. Even though it does not want to confirm or deny the name. In the program twelve duos start a journey around the world. After assignments a duo always falls off. The Dutch program Peking Express looks like it. Kampen appears in the 31st season, which will probably be broadcast on CBS in the autumn.

Between 7 and 10 million Americans see the IJsselfront and the old town. Because the makers are not averse to culture and folklore. For example, on Saturday, wild, strange Americans ride a tractor with a fake cow as a passenger. Which is hoisted a little later in the New Tower. While the carillon sounds and city announcer Bertus Krabbe encourages. A camera crew is constantly poking around the neck.

Tomorrow's LEG CANNOT be the PENULTIMATE FINAL 4.

What, they will run a leg on 6/30 and sit around for 2 more days?

7/3 will be fly in FINALE day... RARELY would there be a stop, almost always DIRECT.

The departure to US is rarely after an extended 24 hr pitstop...somewhat extended yes but not normally 24 hours

Since we know there is a LEG tomorrow we can assume:

6/30 Netherlands leg+Pitstop either normal or extended

7/1 either travel day + another leg
 OR Extended PITSTOP

7/2 travel +LEG, normal pitstop

7/3 Fly to DTW

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

SO my guess is 6/30 will be LEG +EXTENDED PITSTOP  ??NEL so either Still 4 or Down to 4

7/1 Extended PITSTOP (possible late night travel)

7/2 LEG + Normal Pitstop Down to 3

7/3 Fly to DTW >>FINALE



Would be super easy to do a Leg anywhere in UK to make this happen.

Although how we still have 3 legs left is a bit mindboggling...and I DO NOT THINK there could be 4    Bolded my choices.

What about Green field village being used to do a detour or roadblock. That place is heavy in American history. Just prior to July 4th would be perfect.

It's a cool place and I love visiting, but it doesn't scream "Detroit" to me - as a local, I think there are more authentic places they can go.

The Detroit Museum has a replica of 'Old Detroit' with fake shops and everything - I think that would be a better historical visit.

Fox Theatre isn't happening, there's a concert that day.

I'm guessing, if it happens, there will be tasks themed around: Motown, automobiles, Michigan history, 'reinventing' Downtown Detroit...

Moving this over here. are we agreed the guy in the red shirt is Jamal? There doesn't appear to be a camera on him which is what's giving me pause, but the guy kneeling could be filiming him and is just being blocked. Also he has a helmet on, so maybe he is about to raised up on that cow.

Pure speculation: I think Bret/Chris were out at f5 (leg 9) and leg 10 is a NEL.

Looking more and more unlikely that one of Reillys and Colin/Christie made it out of Switzerland.

At this point I am thinking that Vietnam leg 1, Dubai, and one of the Switzerland legs were NELs and we are down to 5 teams.
Title: Re: TAR 31: Speculation and Discussion of the **SPOILERS** WORKZONE!
Post by: FFGCSDT on June 30, 2018, 09:03:37 AM
Updated timeline, prob like this right

Leg 1: Tokyo (Art/JJ)
Leg 2: Laos (Bonehams)
Leg 3: Vietnam (KOR/NEL)
Leg 4: Vietnam (Eliza/Corinne)
Leg 5: Dubai (KOR/NEL)
Leg 6: Uganda (Janelle/Brit)
Leg 7: Switzerland (KOR/NEL)
Leg 8: Switzerland (Rachel/Elissa)
Leg 9: Croatia (Bret/Chris)
Leg 10: Netherlands (elimination)
Leg 11: TBD (elimination)
Leg 12: USA (finale)

I think this is the most likely timeline. With only a few days left, there's no way that 1) we're NOT on leg 10, and 2) this ISNT the final 5 right? But we'll see

So they flushed all the NELs early as some predicted. Impressive that almost all TAR teams made the F5. The Colin/Christie reappearance is a nice surprise, they at least made 10 episodes. And 3rd -> 7th  is not that big of a fall for Rachel but still disappointing.

Based on that Dutch video, definitely feel like that cycling around and propelling that cow up with the pulley was either an ARI or improbably a detour. I mean, if it was a detour, that would explain why only 3 teams were seen, but it's also possible that Vicole and Team Fun were either ahead or lagging behind.

I don't think we know 100% whether finale is in Detroit but Freep and Press articles are strong evidence.  If it is in Detroit, Nicole and Tyler if they are still in fact racing should be familiar with the major landmarks and such somewhat. They have both spent some time there. I know Nicole talked about her time going to concerts and sporting events  in the D on feeds.

It's not impossible that they fell victim to a U-Turn or a H2H.
From the pictures we've gotten, it seems like the teams are in two packs. The "leading" group including Victor & Nicole, Tyler & Korey, Becca & Floyd, Colin & Christie, Chris & Bret. And the maybe "underdog" group of Rachel & Elissa, Janelle & Britney and Leo & Jamal. We can speculate based on those pics that those teams might be working together. Who knows?

Totally unknown. THIS Leg or next will be a NEL.

We have to have one more elim leg.

MY PURE GUESS IS this LEG will be NEL 4 to 4. AND perhaps an extended pitstop (has to be here or next leg to make dates work and they almost never do it right before FINALE--so...)

That leaves ONE MORE LEG possibly on 7/2 in a place nearby an airport with  direct flights to Detroit.

AMS fits, so do most all the large UK airports, considering they will be unlikely to backtrack.

SO  another leg anywhere nearby a direct flight option on a TAR carrier works.

Becca and Floyd are probably in front. They were sighted with no other teams around and Leo/Jamal got lost.
The sighter that had Victor/Nicole use their phone left in a hurry and he got pics of Tyler/Christie which makes me think they are in front.

Tyler/Korey and Colin/Christie in the middle.

Leo/Jamal in last since they got lost and they seem to be in a huge hurry.

Thanks for the translation! Airing in the fall! Yes!!!

CBS has already announced their fall schedule and TAR isn't in it. Like last season, TAR will probably air beginning in early January after Survivor ends it's season.

Regarding the news video from Krampen, Netherlands, the Racer who appears to be Colin raised that cow up on the pulley extremely fast, which I think helps confirm that ID. It is typical of how Colin would go after a task in his original season, e.g., the cliff climb in the second Philippines leg of TAR 5.

^Why do you think there would be 1 more non-elim? Don't they only have 3 non-elims throughout, and since Colin/Christie resurfaced we know 1 of the Swiss legs had to be a non-elim or KOR which would mean all of them have been used

I know of no limit, so not sure we can say that.. BUT we have 4 teams right now and there has to be one more leg before the Finale. The last pre Finale leg is always run with 4 teams.

4 seen:Tyler/Korey, Colin/Christie, Leo/Jamal, Becca/Floyd
1 assumed: Victor/Nicole

If we have 5 then my NEL comment is incorrect. UNLESS there was somehow time for another Croatia leg which I think we ruled out.

In the video we saw today, they said Hanzestad/Kampen and Gietoorn will be only town in Netherland to be shown on the show, which means I don't think there is another leg there. So, Amsterdam probably won't work for the direct flight to Detroit unless they fly back in as transit from somewhere else, possibly close by.

I think Gietoorn will be the roadblock. Very, very pretty from what I have seen while searching! Perfect place for a pitstop!  :cheer:

Detroit Central Station could be a great finish line as well. Just purchased by Ford and is being viewed as the sign that Detroit has done a turn around. The park across from
it is public but the site itself is private. A few years ago Ford and TAR teamed up for a sponsorship.. Just a thought as well.

Yes, but I guess what I am saying is if we had 6 teams in Croatia: Leo/Jamal, Tyler/Korey, Victor/Nicole, Becca/Floyd, Colin/Christie and Chris/Bret,
Then wouldn't it mean we have 5 teams in Netherlands, not 4?

I don't think there is another leg there either. But we should def see Giethoorn in THIS leg. But they would not fly to AMS from anywhere in the Netherlands, it is a tiny country, IIRC it is maybe an hour and a half to two hours  from there by car or train. And there are def other places nearby worth a leg. But I am leaning towards a UK leg maybe? Just my spec.

As spec I still wouldn't be surprised if a leg 11_was in Canada. Canada hasn't been visited by TAR motherhood in a long time and it would be a logical way to set up a final leg, assuming that is Detroit.

From this video in Live sightings:

https://youtu.be/B8W_etpKQTs (https://youtu.be/B8W_etpKQTs)

Shadows look a bit longer for Leo and Jamal compared to Tyler/Korey and Colin/Christie, so I say they are behind. 30 minutes? An hour? I'm not good enough with shadows to tell.

Also a sighting of BVM and a cameraman running @1:57-2:01. Not bad for a guy in his late 70s.

That's been my assumption. If the finale is Detroit, then the number of places with direct flights to Detroit in the mid afternoon time frame is fairly limited. Africa, South America and the Caribbean is pretty much out of the question. Most likely from Amsterdam, Frankfurt or London though I haven't done an in depth search of European cities. Montreal and Toronto have several non stop flights. Mexico City and Monterrey, Mexico have flights that fit too, but I don't think they would go to Mexico City again this soon. I'm not sure about the safety situation in Monterrey. There's also a direct flight from Amman, Jordan but that seems unlikely for several reasons.

So leg 10 very likely ended a few hours ago. So checking onto departure flights out of Schiphol Airport.

With of the information we have available, which are:
- we generally know the direction they are travelling, which helps reducing the list of likely destinations.
- we know Phil and part of the production must depart first, before the teams are released, so it has to be a destination with flights that allow for this configuration.
- Teams must be in their rest period now, so assuming a 12-ish hours of rest, leg 11 will probably start on the very early morning of 07/01.

A few destinations do seem to pop-up
1) The UK. Many flights to the several airports. And they don't even need to do England, they could maybe do Scotland. Though Northern Ireland or Wales do seem very unlikely.
2) Dublin, Ireland.
3) Madrid, Spain or Barcelona, Spain
4) Lisbon, Portugal
5) Toronto, Canada


All the European destinations, if teams are able to fly in any of the morning flights, they'd arrive in the destination in time for a leg in the city during the entire afternoon of 07/01.

Toronto would be more complicated, as the arrivals would be mid-afternoon, but still possible to have the leg be run on 07/01, but they might choose to avoid it due to Canada Day, and set a HOO, so the leg in the city would have to be done in the morning of 07/02.


UPDATE:
Flying to South America or Central America, is possible, but feels unlikely from the flight options out of that airport.

So people don't get confused, this all spec for now, based on the things I explained in the previous post.
Quoting myself, cause. If we cross these destinations, with the information that production does prefer if teams fly direct for final destination. And assuming all the information we've been getting that Detroit is very likely the final city, only 2 possible destinations remain: London and Toronto, all the other cities need flights with at least one stop, to reach Detroit.

Crazy to think that that border could possibly impact the race. Tunnel today was a mess this afternoon! Ambo was also backed up today. But not a standstill like some days. Usually tunnel is faster unless construction, which it has been closed a lot lately but normally only at night. They need to use someone's phone and check the website wait time! It could go either way on Tuesday. Depends on whether people are traveling for holidays and whether people are working that day or not.

What about Iceland? There are typically direct flights from Iceland to DTW.

The girl who took that video said it was taken just a little before 3 pm. When was the video of Colin and Chrissy taken?

In the still photo of Victor and Nicole there is an empty boat between them.  In the video the middle boat is gone and Nicole looks to be holding the fronts of both boats together while steering Victor's boat backwards in the canal.  Almost like they had to retrieve a boat, guide it to another spot, back their boats outs and then return themselves somewhere along the canal.

The last leg before the finale will undoubtedly be somewhere from which they can get a direct flight to the states. Isn't it always?

That's been my assumption. If the finale is Detroit, then the number of places with direct flights to Detroit in the mid afternoon time frame is fairly limited. Africa, South America and the Caribbean is pretty much out of the question. Most likely from Amsterdam, Frankfurt or London though I haven't done an in depth search of European cities. Montreal and Toronto have several non stop flights. Mexico City and Monterrey, Mexico have flights that fit too, but I don't think they would go to Mexico City again this soon. I'm not sure about the safety situation in Monterrey. There's also a direct flight from Amman, Jordan but that seems unlikely for several reasons.

I've actually taken that direct flight to Detroit.

Monterrey is perfectly safe. I'll be ready if you have any reason to believe they're coming. We have elections tomorrow and a World cup Match on Monday morning, so it could be interesting. Out of the main square, the rest of the city should be pretty quiet.

I am confused as to who is ahead and who is behind. There are so many accounts and it changes with each new post. Do we know if the cow was part of the detour or was it a Route Info? Is it possible Vic/Nic, Becca/Floyd did another part of the detour? Is it possible that as Nic/Vic googled Giethoorn, the other teams were headed to the cow?

I guess my point is, we don't actually know 100% whose on first...

I spoke to two people today.

The gentleman I spoke to that was at the cow raising location had pictures of Colin/Christie, Tyler/Korey, and Leo/Jamal.  He said he saw them all before he saw Nicole and Vic at the same location.  Nicole and Victor then googled Giethoorn on his phone and left in a hurry.  HE did not see Becca and Floyd at that location.

(Unrelated - there was a still image of Floyd and Becca at the cow raising location so they were there at one point.)

I then spoke to a fan that saw Nicole and Victor in Giethoorn around 3 pm Netherland time.  She said that they were approx 10-15 mins ahead of Becca and Floyd.

I googled myself and there is about 50 mins between Kampen and Giethoorn.

Thanks! That clears it up

So the order is

1. Tyler/Korey
2. Colin/Christie
3. Leo/Jamal
4. Victor/Nicole
5. Becca/Floyd

I think this was an elimination leg and considering there was quite a big gap between the first three teams and the last two, i assume either Victor/Nicole or Becca/Floyd got eliminated.

I haven't seen anything to rule out a leg 11 in Canada, as it could be run on Monday, the 2nd, and even a short pitstop into the final leg.(as TAR did one recent season in Japan).  And if in Canada, there are cities other than Toronto that could be d and get the teams to the border for a Tuesday finale leg on the 3rd. In other words, there is nothing dictating that leg 11 has to be in Europe, and there could be an extended pitstop, both to get production across the Atlantic ahead of the teams, and to facilitate two final legs with a short pitstop inbetween.

Leg 10 and 5 teams? No way it isn't an elimination unless they're pulling some crazy double-elimination twist in the semifinal.

If sequester is in the Netherlands and they are racing there now, wouldn’t it make sense for Leg 11 to also be in the Netherlands? Then all of the teams can take the same flight to the United States for the final leg.

Complete speculation:

We know Nicole and Victor were doing very well in Croatia and had quite a lead.  Could there have been a u-turn this leg and someone used it on them? That might account for the time difference on when they were spotted?  If they had been performing well, it would have made sense.  There was a Uturn at F5 on TAR28
Title: Re: TAR 31: Speculation and Discussion of the **SPOILERS** WORKZONE!
Post by: NancyJ on June 30, 2018, 06:23:18 PM

Yeah I'm like 99% sure this was an elimination, and this upcoming leg is the last elimination before finale. So we are down top 4 teams as we speak. Gotta wait until morning local time for new sightings

Post by: Mhillstrom on June 30, 2018, 07:24:42 PM
In reply to sightings  #198 and #412 and #413 of Workzone

So I looked the description on the youtube video by Kampenonline…

The devil is in the details!  }:>

The Koeplein at the Nieuwe Toren is partially fenced off with fences. A team of cameramen, soundmen and security people are busy with the final preparations. The production assistant discusses with the producer of this TV hit. Then suddenly people come into action and there is the roar of tractors. Three tractors, each with a trailer with a plastic cow on it, come towards the Koeplein. Directly followed by the fighting teams. After the explanation of the rules, the cow should be lifted as quickly as possible, the go-ahead is given by our own city announcer Bertus Krabbe. The battle breaks loose, the cows are hoisted. And after all these days with preparations and the long wait for this Saturday morning, the teams have left on their tandems within a few minutes, followed by the cameramen. Direction Giethoorn, we have heard, where the next game part is waiting.

Thinking now the cow hoist was a detour, only 3 of the 5 teams did that.  Becca/Floyd, Vic/Nic did the other part of detour.  No U-Turn or double U-Turn. The pic where Floyd/Becca were seen in Kampen was not necessarily at the cow hoist as there were tables, etc and looked to me to be outside seating at a restaurant. I guess the next question is did the guy who took the pic's take pictures of the teams headed to the cow or after?  How much time had passed between the pics he took and the time Vic/Nic asked to use his phone? I know someone said there was 50 mins from Kampen to Giethoorn, but that doesn't mean there was 50 mins between the first 3 and the last 2.  The water task in Giethoorn is likely a Route Info since both team members were doing it. So wondering about the roadblock. When and where was that?

Reply to #418

The gentleman was at the cow hoisting location.  He had pictures from all 3 teams at that location.  Nicole and Vic also used his phone at this location and then left.  If the detour locations were close enough together, I guess this could work. 

I was just saying that the traveling time between the two cities is 50 mins, not that it was any indication of teams.  I was just trying to help with the timeline of events.

Post by: radomskic on June 30, 2018, 07:41:07 PM
Isn’t it possible Nicole/vic and Becca/Floyd started the first detour and couldn’t complete it so they moved on to a second option?  Doesn’t that happen all the time?  If that is the case it would put them well behind the other 3 teams.

Did the guy see Nic and Vic do the Cow Detour?  The two detours can definitely be close together. In the picture with Team fun near the tables with people sitting you can see the cow and a child looking up. That may be the time Nic and Vic were doing the detour?  But Floyd did not look in a hurry to get off his bike to do the detour. Maybe they had just finished the Cow detour and was getting ready to leave but who was lifting the cow the child was looking at?

For some reason I thought he was on a bike. It does look like they are getting ready to lift the cow. The guy is hooking him up. The child is looking up. Probably at Nic and Vic’s cow. I can’t believe we are talking about lifting cows 😂. It does look like they are doing that detour. 🤷🏻‍♀️

It looks like Tyler and Korey.  It seems like they had one boat and they had to go get 2 boats to bring back in addition, since Nicole and Vic had 3 total in the one picture.

You should post it in sightings.  There is a production mic guy on the bank and the boat has a little flag on it.  I will try to get it enlarged.  Think its Korey/Tyler.

That’s for sure Tyler and Korey, and the boat has a little red and yellow amazing race flag on it! The women posted the photo at about 9PM local Netherlands time but said beautiful afternoon so it’s hard to tell if they were ahead or behind Nicole/Victor and team fun.

If you zoom in on the picture of Tyler and Korey in the boat and the picture of Nicole and Victor with their boats, they are in the same location. Same building in the background. 

Tyler/Korey look like they have camera people in the boat with them but there is a boat in front of Nicole with a camera person standing on it.

Someone check my math but I think it was posted at 9 pm Netherland time, which wasn't near the time it was taken.  The shadows don't look different enough between T/K and N/V for there to be 3 hours different, at least I don't think.

Not that I can tell.  One team being seen at a point later than another is not always conclusive because there is SO much we do not know. We "see through a glass darkly".

The order teams are seen does NOT always reflect a possible elimination order.

Suppose there was  Head to Head at the end? One team could have waited ages and STILL been beaten.

The point is...we just do NOT know.

Couldn't this season have the same format as Unfinished Business? It makes more sense to me because Corinne & Eliza were allegedly spotted in Dubai. What if the legs go:

Leg 1: Tokyo NEL
Leg 2: Laos Art & JJ
Leg 3: Vietnam Rupert & Laura
Leg 4: Vietnam NEL
Leg 5: Dubai Corinne & Eliza
Leg 6: Uganda Britney & Janelle
Leg 7: Switzerland Elissa & Rachel
Leg 8: Switzerland NEL
Leg 9: Croatia Bret & Chris
Leg 10: The Netherlands F5 Elimination
Leg 11 F4 Elimination
Leg 12 Final Leg

This lines up with all the sightings and makes a lot more sense to me.

As someone pointed out earlier today, these remaining TAR teams all finished 5-4-3-2 in their respective first seasons, and it would be funny if it happens that way again :lol:

If Becca & Floyd got 5th, we're well on our way.
Lol if Afghanimals get out at 4th.

Poor Becca

Toronto is still possible for Leg 11, IMO

And from there, it's an EASY 4 hour drive to Detroit...

If Toronto is Leg 11, how would we feel if TAR used MLB Stadiums in back-to-back legs?

Jamal and Leo finished the cow hoisting right before Colin/Christie & Tyler/Korey arrive.  Racers from the video posted here:  https://www.destentor.nl/kampen/opnames-amerikaans-programma-begonnen-in-kampen~a6ad1c4b/

Screen shots below taken at specified time in video.

:16  Colin and Christie arrive and get off their bike
:17  BVM sprints into view
:22  Leo? has finished and is walking away from the cow hoist area (wearing gray sleeveless hoodie) Look past Colin in photo.
:23  Tyler/Korey going to get their cow off trailer
:47  Jamal/Leo getting on bike to leave

First time posting here! So excited!
Just adding to that, Leo had a blue clue(could be the boating route info task) before riding the bike, while Christy had a yellow clue(detour?) when arrived. This probably means that this task is the detour and Leo/Jamal finished before the other two teams(they got the route info), unless this video was intentionally edited to hide who had the lead(possible though).
Just my speculation:The lady who posted the photo of Leo/Jamal doing the cow task said they were not the first one. I wonder if this means Becca/Floyd was before them, as Teamvicolefan confirmed Nicole/Victor were after those three teams and no one saw Becca/Floyd(they could be way ahead). If this was what happened, I’m so curious to know why Team Fun fell behind and finished the boating task 15mins later than Vicole :funny:

But it seems we do not see the cow of Leo/Jamal? Is it possible that they arrived the tower without the cow and they needed to find it first? Seems the other teams need to get the cow somewhere and the truck led them to the tower?

The person who took the picture of Tyler and Korey said it was taken at 1:37 pm. The video/pic of Nic/Vic was taken at approximately 3 pm   The time difference between the two teams is approximately 1 hr and 20 minutes. I’m going to ask if he/she spotted other teams. Edited to add they responded and only spotted the one team. https://twitter.com/majamoora/status/1013319197928116230?s=21 The time distance between the two teams is based off of when they were spotted on the river, it doesn’t mean it is the time distance at the PIT stop especially if there was a road block after the river. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Jamal and Leo's missing cow!  Agree, when Leo was walking away there was no cow to remove - perhaps this is the reason for them stating to the local guy that they got lost.  They rode off in the direction of where the tractors arrived, and if true, gives editing a new teaser "We forgot the Kampen Cow".  I will edit my original post to saying leaving instead of finishing.

I have a question for anyone familiar with international travel. How many hours do you need to be through security prior to departure. I know the time is different within he EU countries compared to North America. I want to check possible flights out of Amsterdam. If the PIT stop was in Giethoorp it takes an 1:26 hours drive to get from Geithoorn to Amsterdam. If they had a 12 hour PIT stop and the PIT stop started at 1:45 to 3:10 then the earliest they can be at the airport is 3:15 to 4:35 am. The flights to Toronto (if that is the next destination) was at 9:45 am. Would that be enough time to make security? Edited to add  I found the information. It’s 3 hours for Intercontinental flight. It is 2 hours for European flights. The last placed team is cutting it real close if their next destination is in Europe. There is a number of flights leaving at around 7 am

Peach, sorry for the incorrect info on the envelope! As a newbie sometimes I got things messed up.
Will edit my original post.

However, I do understand we see Team Fun at the cow location. What I mean is the gentleman who let Vicole use his phone saw all the teams but Team Fun(according to TeamVicoleFan), which might mean they were either far ahead or behind. I did made an mistake on assuming Leo/Jamal was the first team finishing this task. ALSO, as you said, this could be one side of detour, although all five teams were sighted at the cow location.

They don't have to necessarily be direct.

I saw the teams arriving at SFO for S30- they came through Taipei, not direct from Hong Kong.

We COULD see something similar again- somewhere where their could be a short flight to London before flying onward to Detroit(?).

If the teams have been released for Leg 11, it seems unlikely they will go to Canada because otherwise I would expect many people would see them and take pictures at the airport since they know about this show, hence it’s likely that they do Leg 11 in Europe.

Hi, no pics as I was in the office. But saw people running down the Strand and to Waterloo bridge. Walked to waterloo bridge and they wr doing something on the river with red nd yellow flags.

They were filming a guy and girl (think the girl was wearing a blue jumper) at about 5pm. Dont think they were doing anything just getting a speed boat somewhere

There's a lifeboat station (RNLI Tower Lifeboat Station) under/next to the Waterloo Bridge. It's possible they could be doing some kind of water rescue based task. Out of all the things they could be doing in London, that seems a bit odd though.

The tweet will always show in your time zone. No matter what time zone the tweeter was in.

So if someone tweets at 8:00pm East Coast time, it will show up as being posted 5pm Pacific time for me because I am in the Pacific time zone, 3 hours behind Eastern time.

Don't think it has even been run yet. I am speculating the teams race tomorrow.

Phil often gets ahead of teams prior to their release from pre pit stop, and Netherlands to London would be easy so he can get standups out of the way. This would especially be the case it production has to essentially take same flight to final city.

And I hate Kindle Fire autocorrect with a passion.....

SLowhatch already ID'd the Location. This is a side by side with fanpic.

I think this is conclusive evidence of a leg.

There is Phil+ a Judge of some sort, a fan saying PitStop.... this is as good as it gets.

I'm guessing that with no teams being seen, Phil arrived today and did all (or most) of his standup shots. The teams will arrive tomorrow and run the leg. That's my speculation anyway.

Nothing in that pic to suggest a H2H...

I think the leg ran today. They do not have costumed participants on standup days.

So choices are:(in my mind)

we have another leg tomorrow OR

we have a 30 hr Pitstop OR

Finale is tomorrow--not  Tuesday which means the whole Detroit thing is misdirection :groan:

I definitely don’t think the finale will be on Wednesday with it being 4th of July. They might want to do a whole go America thing, but from a production standpoint it’ll be hard for them to hide the finals with almost EVERYBODY being off work.

Peach, the date that the filming permit story mentioned was Tuesday, not Wednesday. It's also possible this leg involved an undiscovered evening task, as was the case in TAR 30 on its 11th leg.

In response to #477 (and discussion of the Moo Task and Water task in general)
There was an article about this (I posted it yesterday). They said 3 moos came in on tractors followed by the teams, indicating only three of the teams completed this task. However, it’s possible that the person who wrote the article came late to the party and missed the other two teams doing the moo task,  OR, they were instructed by TAR production not to mention them or show them in the video. Remember, we saw Floyd and Becca in the area with helmets!  IF Victor/Nicole and Becca/Floyd did do the moo task before the others,that would mean they were somewhat ahead of the other teams. C/C, J/L, T/K were all close together and that would work perfectly for production of the video. The article also indicated that after the three teams left, so did everyone else… (production/camera crews). It also said that they were told the teams were headed to Giethoorn.

Keep in mind that the video’s were obviously edited because it showed them arriving, getting their moos, doing the hoist and then hustling to leave BUT there is a pic with Tyler and Christie at the moo task, talking to the camera or listening to something.  Also, I know there is another video I saw, but the person who posted it has since made her IG private. I believe it showed the teams standing around together, getting the instructions. The article did say that the teams received instructions prior to doing the task. She was fairly close, I could guess maybe production asked her to shut it down or she was uncomfortable with all the attention she was getting.

The person who took the photo of Christie/Tyler indicated he took the picture before Victor and Nicole asked to use his phone. But I guess the big question is; were the teams receiving instructions (before the task) when the picture was taken or it taken after they did the task? Another question would be whether or not the teams had left the area when Victor and Nicole asked to use the phone? If the other teams had left, how long before?  It’s possible that production didn’t want Vic/Nic in the area when the other teams were doing the task AND when the video for the article was being filmed. Were Victor and Nicole on bikes or in a car or walking? The man said he didn’t have time to snap a pic of Victor and Nicole because they rushed off. He also said he didn’t think Victor and Nicole were last.

The video in the article showed the teams leave on bikes. Surely they were not going to ride their bikes over 24 miles to Giethoorn! They had to have either taken a taxi (who likely knew where Giethoorn was) or they were self driving, which makes sense and is likely why Victor and Nicole needed to google a map to get there. (But may be their taxi driver had no idea where he was going.) Teams would have had to ride their bikes to wherever the car/taxi was, load their stuff and take off for Giethoorn. Victor and Nicole were likely ready to go when they asked to borrow the phone.

Now, the video of Nicole/Victor on the water…

So I looked at video posted on twitter of Nicole and Victor in the water. and because I am MST I read her tweet was sent at 3:36pm MST 30 Jun, but it was 11:26pm 30 Jun in Giethoorn. So she posted the video to Twitter a long time after it was taped.  The previously stated time frame was based on comment to Nicole’s IG. I do see the comment on Nicole's IG, but I do not see a timestamp (actual time) for the comment however, I do know she made the comment today because a) the time frame didn’t work for yesterday and B) When I look at the comments on Nic’s IG, the comment is listed under July 1.  So, this could mean we really have no idea what time the person actually taped the video.  The pic of Korey and Tyler on the water was indeed taken at 1:34pm Giethoorn time but she didn’t post the pic to twitter until 7:04pm Giethoorn time.

So I guess it’s not set in stone that Vic and Nic were behind Tyler/Korey.

If they go to Dover, it’s possible that they go there first and by boat crossing the English Channel, there’s ferry service from Normandie region in France like Canais. That may explain lack of sighting at airport.

I was in London last week, Tyler/Korey were at the corner of Regent Street and Piccadilly. I got a picture of the same street corner.

Edited to add the picture I took last week, they should be at that corner behind this statue.

Twitter post in the live sightings thread says teams were at Leeds castle. Leeds is around 200 miles from London and even further from Dover, so if they did go there I’d guess maybe a train could be possible rather than the long drive?

If the teams were in Dover and Leeds they probably went to Dover by ferry or the Eurotunnel and then travelled onto London and Leeds from there?

If someone saw Colin/Christie about the same time as Tyler/Korey and if Colin/Christie were the 1st team to arrive, wouldn't they stay around? Normally if they come to the mat in close time, they are still there? So maybe they weren't the 1st team?

They often try to wisk them off, depends if they arrive close together or they think there might be Mat drama.

Peach I was told this information from Ashabooka account. I can email the dms. She did say she didn’t see them finish but they were starting in Camden market when the other teams were done. She didn’t see the first team finish but she saw bags sitting there when the second team come in so she assumed another team finished first.

But the strange thing is why the mannequin (which seems the thing they need to dress up) seems placed exactly next to pit stop in Leo/Jamal pit stop picture? And it seems when Leo/Jamal checked in there was no sunlight in contrast to C/C, need to see if that means sooner or later.

Guys i got the tea

I just exchanged DMs with her

So i asked her the order of which the teams arrived, it was:
1.Tyler/Korey
2.Afghanimals
3. Colin/Christie
4. vicole

Notes:
-she said the first two teams are interchangeable, she wasnt sure which one finished first between the two
-when Colin and Christie checked in on the mat, Nicole and Victor were still doing a task nearby
-she said Colin and Christie talked with Phil for a while before being led away. I asked her if they seemed happy, she answered yes. And i asked her again if after C/C were led away from mat Vicole were still doing their task, she said yes
-So Victor and Nicole finished last. We dont know if this was really the last leg before finale or if this was a NEL leg 10, but signs point to this being the penultimate leg. Vicole looked devastated

EDIT:
-we can count out Team Fun, sadly, they were 5th
-IF this was the penultimate leg, which i think it was, then C/C and Tyler/Korey are the third and fourth teams to be in the f3 twice.
-afghanimals survived the 4th place curse (damn it! Lol)
-an all TAR finale

Yup.

I asked her if shortly after teams checked in, whether or not they were instructed to keep on racing. She said each team was on the mat talking to Phil for quite a while. So it seems unlikely that this was a KOR. The clues in Phil's pocket were prob clues for the finale. And Vicole looked devastated (edit) while doing the task

BUT, we still gotta wait for airport sightings. There's a small chance they might be doing a F4 finale again (i doubt that tho)

If this wasn't a KOR for the final, that would be pretty cruel. The teams that watched the last several seasons would know this twist, so for the last placer to not move on would be equivalent to Phil standing there ripping a clue envelope in half in front of them, lol.

If Vicole saw Colin and Chrissy finish of course they would be devastated but I want to be sure this wasn’t a non-elim leg. What was their reaction on the mat?  For a KOR they would rush off but why rush off for a non-elimination leg?

Like i said, it is unlikely that this was a KOR, because teams spent a significant amount of time on the mat talking to Phil. And the girl told me that they weren't instructed to keep on racing. So all signs point to this being an elimination penultimate leg and Vicole falling short.

BUT best to wait for airport or USA sightings to be 100% sure

Why couldn’t it be a sign of a non-elimination?  Sorry I’m new to this. In a non-elimination would they tell the other teams it was a non-elimination?  I would assume they only tell the last place team.

Teams wouldn't be given a clue if it wasn't a KOR/no pit stop leg. If it is into the final leg, then teams probably wouldn't need to rush off to get to Heahthrow as they'll have a long wait there for a flight to the flight city whether direct or via a connection.
Most likely production wants to get to the final city ahead of the teams, so I would expect teams will be fed onto a flight later than production and Phil. Just my $.02.

Post by: Maanca on July 02, 2018, 01:47:17 PM
In a non-elimination, yes. In a Keep On Racing (KOR), Phil's like "You're team number so-and-so...but you're still racing." (Reach in back pocket) "Here's your next clue" to every team.

Recent seasons editing only shows him telling the last team, though, to keep the suspense of the episode.

Both 25 & 26 had a final 4 KOR, where one team was eliminated during the final leg. Though I think 26 was filmed while 25 was being shown, so people on 26 did not expect it to come.

Post by: serendipity on July 02, 2018, 01:57:17 PM
I think the dilemma is, when it’s a penultimate leg with elimination, Phil needs to tell them they’re one of the three teams competing for a million, hence the need to chat more after and ask them to share their feelings.

If in fact it’s a non-elimination, there would not be such mention and I don’t think teams would be thrilled to not hear this speech (in contrast to sighting saying C/C were happy on the mat).

If it is a KOR, I think it’s still possible Phil can chat with them a bit (as I don’t think they really rush off immediately, they could edit to make it look like so when broadcast), but the thing is sightings would show Phil hand them a clue for sure.

I’m confused then why Phil kept the clues but no one saw him giving it out?

The girl left the market and went home after Colin and Christie checked in on the mat. She didn't wait for Vicole to finish their task.

Did the girl confirm whether she saw Phil handed out the clue or not to the teams?

It's possible the envelope handout wasn't visible from where these observers were standing; and that only takes a moment, and the film crews would have likely been blocking the view to film it.

The thing is, if this was a NEL and the penultimate leg is the next one, then there are 13 legs? When was the last time they did a 13 leg season? And that would also mean that we had four NELs this season. Idk doesnt seem likely to me. Im leaning towards Vicole being eliminated

Season 11. Back in the good ol' bigger-budget days. I can't see them bringing that back.

Same. But airport sightings will clear it up
Yes we will have to See, but I Hope for 13 legs insted of a final four. Racing in last leg, Like TAR 25 and TAR 26. not a big fan of that.

Isn’t it possible Nicole and Victor never made it to the mat?  If they were far enough behind in the task they might have stopped production and Phil went to them.  That has happened in the past.

I feel the same... Questions, Questions, Questions! Have you ever seen a task being done within mere feet of the pitstop?  Why would Phil have clues in his pocket if he wasn't going to give them the clue? Had he ever given clues when it's NOT a KOR? Are we sure Vic and Nic were doing a task or were they merely shopping? They will have some down time before flight to MI This just seems weird. "They seemed devastated" They looked pretty relaxed in the pic.  :duno:

Detroit Central Station could be a great finish line as well. Just purchased by Ford and is being viewed as the sign that Detroit has done a turn around. The park across from
it is public but the site itself is private. A few years ago Ford and TAR teamed up for a sponsorship.. Just a thought as well.

Drive by 10 min ago and there were no signs of anything

It would make sense for them not to complete the task if it was an elimination. Which at this point I believe it was an elimination. Phil more than likely greeted them after Colin and Chrissy left the mat. It wouldn’t make sense for Nic and Vic to be required to finish the task if it’s an elimination and Phil is right there within viewing distance.

IF this was a KOR (which i'm doubtful about), then it was Leg 10 and either Vietnam or Switzerland only had one leg.

Idk.. It's late there in London. I think they were just heading to a hotel. And the driver said the cameraman was sitting in the back, is it usual?

I feel the same... Questions, Questions, Questions!  Why would Phil have clues in his pocket if he wasn't going to give them the clue? Had he ever given clues when it's NOT a KOR?

Yes Phil has handed out clues before.

The most recent was in Arles last season.

Phil handed out a clue as if it was KOR but the teams had to do a sponsored "book your flight by phone now" task. They then had a normal pitstop before the next leg.

SO seeing Phil with clues suggests a KOR...but BY NO MEANS confirms a KOR...if that makes sense.

Wait a minute, he said this couple was in last place due to them getting one riddle wrong. So they were solving riddles *before* they hopped on the cab. But the final task near the mat wasn't solving riddles.

So I think he was driving this couple to the market. It was before the final task/pit stop. And hes just using "JUST" loosely.

Just my 2 cents

He said they go all over the world and solve riddles, and then mentioned her getting the riddle wrong. I don’t think he exactly understood the show. He had said he just transported them, and they knew they were last so I’m sure he was transporting them after the pit stop.

Post by: Plaidmoon on July 02, 2018, 05:32:52 PM
Occasionally at the pit stop mat, Phil will surprise the teams and tell them the leg isn't over. Then he'll reach into his back pocket and hand them their next clue. Then the teams are off again without an elimination or any rest period. That's what we call a Keep On Racing leg or KOR.

I'm puzzled to see this happening on the next to last leg unless they are making this one LONG leg that they can split up into 2 episodes or a single episode that fills a 2 hour time slot (like we had a few times last season).

Occasionally at the pit stop mat, Phil will surprise the teams and tell them the leg isn't over. Then he'll reach into his back pocket and hand them their next clue. Then the teams are off again without an elimination or any rest period. That's what we call a Keep On Racing leg or KOR.

I'm puzzled to see this happening on the next to last leg unless they are making this one LONG leg that they can split up into 2 episodes or a single episode that fills a 2 hour time slot (like we had a few times last season).

So am I. The driver is too vague.

Plaidmoon starting in season 18 the KOR legs were not 1 leg they were 2 legs. Phil tells the teams the next leg of the race starts immediately (or sometimes now) and hands the teams their next clue (aka the first clue of the next leg). So in season 14 the last double-length leg in TAR US History. Leg 10 was a Double-Length Leg so at the half way point would have started a new leg if it was TAR 18 and beyond. So Season 14 would have had 12 legs instead of 11 if this was TAR 18 AND BEYOND. Just let me make that clear. No hate.

A KOR can be an elimination point, as it is the end of a leg, but there is no rest period and the team's immediately begin the next leg. In some earlier seasons, Phil wouldn't even be there.
The double/uberleg evolved into the KOR/no rest period legs which was most recently aired in the Zimbabwe legs of TAR 30.

There's another possibility, that I even feel silly to bring up, because it was something that happened on the old days when TAR had more budget, like the old days of 13 legs per cycle, even though I really feel its is unlikely - which is a simplified version of the two destination finale, that was something that used to happen up between Season 5 to Season 10. Colin & Christie are the only vets ever to experience this, cause from S11,  it was back to a single destination in the finale.  That would even allow for a F4 finale if they chose to try it again, with 4th place eliminated before heading to end-city.
I bring this up cause I was re-watching TAR5 over the weekend, and the only challenge set in final city were the final puzzle / maze challenge, as there was another city also part of the final leg.

Did anyone ask the people at the pit stop if Phil handed them the clue? And if he did, did they save it or open right away. Wouldn’t that indicate KOR?

Post by: cbacbacba1 on July 02, 2018, 06:29:21 PM
I think there is a high possibility that London is a KOR, cause we hardly see Phil handing in clues, most of these incidents are KORs (only 1 exception - Arles from last season).

The only arguable point is whether this is a 3-teams finales or 4-teams finale.

Because of the speculation of KOR, I am now more hesitated towards Detroit as final destination.

Both of the direct flights from London to Detroit are scheduled to leave London in morning period. Why would they do a KOR to keep teams wander around airport for 10+ hours when they can do a 11-12 hours pit-stop? Just a bit not making sense to me.

Have there ever been KOR Legs with an elimination? Because I know TAR merely uses KOR Legs as no-penalty Non-Elimination Legs.

But it's certainly possible to have an elimination even if all other teams continue Racing.

My gut says we're overthinking this and Vicole got eliminated. The taxi driver is kinda vague, i think Vicole were on his cab BEFORE the market.

The girl said the first three teams each had a chat with Phil on the mat. I asked her if they immediately proceeded to keep on racing, she said no. Weird if this was a KOR. A KOR in the penultimate leg is rare and i doubt theyre doing a 13 leg season.

Hoping we will get London airport sightings

Sorry I posted this in the wrong thread. Could someone move it.

I want more than anything for Nic and Vic to be in it but based on what the account @ashabooka told me there is a very slim chance they were given a clue from Phil. Take a look at the second picture in this link. https://www.instagram.com/p/BkvOC7Lgppn/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=lenbrye9lhsi

I only see two clues remaining. I asked her if the picture was taken prior to the teams she told me she saw and she said yes. She told me she hadn’t seen the afghananimal team. Therefore if Tyler and Korey and Colin and Chrissy were the teams she saw then those clues were given to them. 🤷🏻‍♀️  The confusion for me is the taxi driver. I don’t consider Colin and Chrissy a young couple but I guess if he’s a lot older they would be considered younger.

Even if it was KOR, I think the teams would still have a chat with Phil for a while, no? They then even did an interview after the leg (during the time waiting for the flight?). Maybe, because of the limit of time, they had to do a KOR leg but it's still an EL.

Detroit is pretty at night, but I would guess production would try to make it during the daytime - downtown, while much safer than it used to be, can still be a little dicey at night. During the daytime it's completely safe. (If they go to the suburbs, though, then maybe night tasks are possible.)

In fact in that season, you could see teams departing for the final leg in the background, even as the 4th place team was being eliminated. The only difference here would be instead of a very short pit stop, it's a KOR without a pit stop.

There are not as many flights to the US leaving London at night because of the time change. The last flight leaving Heathrow to the US is a 8:10 flight to New York, which would land at around 10:30/11 PM EST (about 2 hours from now), which wouldn't make any sense race wise.

Well unless they're spending tonight in a East Coast airport somewhere and then flying again tomorrow morning ....

Or teams are connecting elsewhere to Detroit.Production will b looking at getting teams pre-cleared for US Customs, which can be done at Heathrow, or at another US city to avoid delays in the final destination city. As to safety at night, probably no different than last season. And production does have its own security.

He said they go all over the world and solve riddles, and then mentioned her getting the riddle wrong. I don’t think he exactly understood the show. He had said he just transported them, and they knew they were last so I’m sure he was transporting them after the pit stop.

WRP does that. They don't use cabs then.

It seems fairly sure oi me that they were mentioning earlier tasks, knew they were in last place AT THIS POINT.

My bet is he took them to Camden Passage for the last task/Pitstop.

She did not mention to me about Phil handing out the clues. I know for sure she didn’t see the afghananimals. She wasn’t sure if they finished before Tyler/Korey or after them. This is a quote “and the mystery team might have been second or first because their stuff was already there when the girl/guy were finishing”. Why would a team leave their bags? I think she was confused with the bags of production thinking it was an eliminated teams bags. There is a IG story by briegobel showing the finish mat. You see bags sitting there. That has to be productions bags.

I’m interested to see what led to Nicole and Vic coming in last if they did in fact finish the roadblock ahead of others

Sounds like the side of the detour Colin and Christie chose involved rowing and they were taught by an Olympian and they had less than 60 seconds to complete the task, and when they showed up Tyler and Korey and Nicole and Vic were still there. They described it as needing strength, balance, and technique, and that there was chariots there.

So we have out Final 3: Youtube, Afghanimals, and C/C

Even if RFF detectives found out which team won, RFF would never reveal it because the viewers would lose their excitement for the season. They only reveal their detective job (photo of finish line...) after the final episode was aired. You might find it somewhere else but not here in RFF.

Sounds like there's going to be two sides to this story.

What I got from the first three minutes of that video was that Christie, Korey, and Vic were doing the roadblock where they had to decipher what sounded like three codes, and Christy and Korey worked together to get one of the codes and then Christie gave it to Vic expecting for him to return the favor, but it sounds like when Vic got all of them he did not tell it back to them. I’m interested to see what led to Nicole and Vic coming in last if they did in fact finish the roadblock ahead of others

I have to say that video is astounding; never heard of anything like it related to TAR ever. Although with my hearing, I couldn't understand a thing Christie and Colin said, it did show what happens with production after the end of a leg interviewing the Racers for edited in commentary in episodes; a process that has been described by endless Racers over the seasons, but never seen until now.
And I get the impression at the end of Colin and Christie's interview segment that some of the production folks might have been around for a long time. (If you watched you'll know what I am referring to.)

Do I try to go to the airport so I can follow them from there? Or do I go around the city and try to find where set up is occurring for later- maybe at Hart plaza? DL17 gets in around 2. DL19 gets in around 4. If the teams did take the second (DL19) direct flight out (I am not sure why they would do the later one) but that would match up time wise very close to the 5-7 time slot speculated for Hart Plaza. It takes about 30 minutes (in no traffic) to get to DTW to Hart. On other hand, if teams take DL17 (earlier flight which is more likely) there is about 2 1/2-3 hours unaccounted for.

Well, it depends what is easiest for you, what is security like at DTW? Are you allowed at gates? I will guess they will be doing things within reasonable distance of Hart Plaza, surely not more than 15-20 miles surrounding unless there is something unique to Detroit that caught the producers eye...

Ground transportations including personal vehicles and taxis are only permitted at Level 4 of McNamara. Cars just line up and wait to pick people up there. There is no prescreen customs at London airport at this time I believe. There was not this Christmas when I went. I was thinking about rolling up just a few minutes until touch down and seeing if I can find the taxis. Detroit does not use taxis much so they can be spotted in the city unlike NYC. Dearborn could be an option after DTW but before Hart Plaza at 5. It semi-on the way to the city from DTW.

Dearborn is a very unique city. From wiki-
The city was the home of Henry Ford and is the world headquarters of the Ford Motor Company. It has a campus of the University of Michigan as well as Henry Ford College. Dearborn has The Henry Ford, the United States' largest indoor-outdoor museum complex and Metro Detroit's leading tourist attraction.

Also- it is home to the largest Muslim, Middle Eastern, and Arab Americans populations in the US. In some areas of the town, the store signs are written in Arabic instead of or in addition to English. With all these things said, I can see why stopping in Dearborn could work for TAR.

Would like to mention 2 things that have happened since TAR29, that I think is likely to be kept this season. Which was production basically fixing 2 issues regarding the final 3 arrival in the final city.
- The first one is having all final 3 fly together in the same flight into final city. This has been mostly active since TAR11. Which production would limit the flight options available to the racers to basically one option, by manipulating their release time as such, that this would work as an equalizer after all.
- The second one which I think was introduced in 29, is not only already assigning the last flight to the racers, but also upgrading all the final 3 to business class, and production holding everyone up to arrival exit door, which seems where they actually start racing. This address, the issue that even though the flight became an equalizer, racers who were able to get seated closer to the plane exit ended-up gaining advantage over those further back. This is attributed as being pivotal in the final result of certain seasons. Also, this could even allow teams to be flown into final city in the same flight as Phil, and still allow him some head-start, before teams actually start racing.

And I quoted MM1924 specifically. If racers and Phil are in the same flight, it's possible to they're all coming in on DL17. However if production decided to have them be flown apart, Phil and part of the production would be in the first flight, with racers coming in with the later one.

Detroit while a busy airport at sometimes is not a big taxi town. There is a taxi stand at the airport I believe so all teams getting ground transportation should be fairly easy, I can't imagine there being a wait or a line. The key is going to be if anyone forgets to hold their taxi through the leg, this will be a huge mistake as there are not many roaming taxis around town if any at all. Unless production decides to have them drive which I don't recall happening on a final leg.

Because of the speculation of KOR, I am now more hesitated towards Detroit as final destination.

Both of the direct flights from London to Detroit are scheduled to leave London in morning period. Why would they do a KOR to keep teams wander around airport for 10+ hours when they can do a 11-12 hours pit-stop? Just a bit not making sense to me.

It wasn't a KOR. That would not have had hours of team confessional filmings.

Interesting that he said a couple of hundred musicians when Rockin' 1000 put out a call for 1,000.  That would be about 25% turnout.

There is another silver tarp covering situation to the left (in the video) in front (stage setup) of the 2 middle of the 4 coverings. Usually in the Rockin' 1000 videos the singers are placed in front.  Hope everyone is hydrated.

Thinking Hart Plaza is detour or road block, take a boat to Belle Isle, road block or detour, race to the pitstop also on Belle Isle. However, the event at Hart Plaza is early evening, thinking more like road block and detour are in Detroit,  Go by boat to belle isle for pitstop.

reply to 855. Belle Isle is a state park that requires a Recreation passport if you are driving your car into the park. There is a section of the bridge for pedestrians and it can be closed for the public. I just checked they are usually open until 10 pm. Maybe a section of the park can be secluded?  It has been years since I was last there. 🤷🏻‍♀️ There is also bus transportation into the park.

Yeah. At least they showed City Hall lit up in red and yellow for like 2 seconds. It would've been great to see teams actually standing in front of it.

They probably load up Route Markers on the Final Leg for added drama and extra material if other parts of the Leg are too boring and can't fill up the hour lol

I'm questioning if Belle Isle is even being used in the leg. The original Free Press article from a couple days ago made it sound like they were planning on doing the Rockin'1000 task on the island but it got denied and they were looking for a new location. That new location was obviously Hart Plaza so maybe they're bypassing the island completely.

I was just down there - across the river in Windsor. There is plenty of room on both boats, but no one there. Also, those boats are always there - they're tour/party boats, despite what the guy said with his posted pic.

The only permit reportedly denied was on Belle Isle for the Rockin 1000 task.  If the original plan was followed on Belle Isle, then it's very possible they would have left the Isle once the task was finished. 

The only change we know of is Hart Plaza replaced Belle Isle for this task.

God forbid, but what if Leo (or Jamal) were injured and unable to complete a task earlier in the Leg? Hope it's not as serious as that. But it would be shocking for them to have just completely fallen behind like that. Recent Final Legs aren't even designed to allow that much space between teams anymore.

Peach did confirm earlier that C/C and T/K were the first 2 teams at the plaza. I know RFF has a policy to not reveal the winner, but with T/K still struggling at the plaza and the Afghanimals nowhere to be found, it might not matter! I cant imagine the Afghanimals somehow being ahead.

Can teams take a penalty during finale? If so, how long would it be?

It never happened. In theory they could. The same penalties for the type of task probably still applies, if it is a ARI, Roadblock or Detour. We have seen teams arrive in a task first many times, but remain there for so long, that they lose the race there.  Some easy examples that comes to mind in S12, S14, S21 finales. But teams allegedly still completed the task, even if not shown by editing.

Even if c/c have some problem with their taxi again  :funny: they still have a big lead (approx one hour) over tykorey. They need to fck up real bad on the road for tykorey to catch up.

Question is, is the plaza really the final memory challenge? Or is there another challenge before the mat?

Afghanimals could have easily tripped up on a task between the Guardian Building and Hart Plaza. I think at this point with the sun going down and the memory task for the majority of times being the final task, Colin and Christie caught a cab to a finish line that is located somewhere outside of the city center and would have to get totally lost to not win.

I know this is a moot point now but I got a little more clarification on the pit stop yesterday in London from someone that was there.  She said that she had so many people talking to her yesterday she didn't know which end was up.

Teams arrived to the pit stop, received a clue from Phil with the task info, and then started the task in which they had to go into the market.

Now, we know where the clues came into play.

Yeah, they could probably have it ready in September but CBS has already put out the fall schedule and TAR isn't in it. Last year, TAR filled the Wednesday time slot after Survivor finished and started in early January. That seems likely again this time.

CBS has already revealed their entire fall slate. TAR isnt on it. It will very likely be the same Jan/Feb slot it occupied this year, especially with the reality theme since Survivor always airs there. It worked very well for CBS this year.

It's pretty unusual for things to be spoiled like this. I think TAR is pretty much powerless to prevent the media from publishing anything they find out. Sort of like how we get away with it. The problem was that aside from the finish line, everything was right out in the open and easy to observe. TAR could have done it differently. Having the original filming permit on Belle Isle denied and having that make the news really blew things up. Otherwise, some of the stuff they were doing might have flown under the radar.

I think you're right though the one in Portland years back (TAR 13) was almost that visible. I'm not sure the local Portland media was on it quite as much though.

The locations in Portland were miles apart. The zip line at Bridge of the Gods was almost 80 miles from the Retreat Center, while the downtown sites were within blocks of each other. The final was about 2 miles from the city center but access was on a narrow road to the mat, which was a museum that was converted from the mansion of one of the city's founders. The view is tremendous, but access was easily controlled. Also, as I recall (I live in Portland) there was no real fanfare, and there were a couple of decoy teams in the mix.

Never saw the afganimals all day. After I left hidleburgh the rappelling was still set up. Is there a chance they were a later flight. It would add up they were about 1.5 hours behind.

Not likely. TAR puts all final 3 teams on the same flight.

If the editors are any good they can kind of do a fake out with Leo/Jamal like they did with Kristi/Jen last season. Build up a story of how they almost made it to the end twice, all they want to do is make it to the end. They achieve their dreams by winning the penultimate leg. Makes you think they might even win and then boom they completely flop in the finale.

I believe people are talking about they had never "finished the race", being eliminated before the final leg.

And people, FFGCSDT is talking about "they never finished the last leg THEY COMPETED", like, being unable to complete a task and going directly to the mat.

I still cant believe the final task was right out in the open like that. I mean, it's like 99.99% a Colin and Christie victory. I know RFF doesnt leak the winner, but the finale has NEVER been this visible!

I think you're right though the one in Portland years back (TAR 13) was almost that visible. I'm not sure the local Portland media was on it quite as much though.

The locations in Portland were miles apart. The zip line at Bridge of the Gods was almost 80 miles from the Retreat Center, while the downtown sites were within blocks of each other. The final was about 2 miles from the city center but access was on a narrow road to the mat, which was a museum that was converted from the mansion of one of the city's founders. The view is tremendous, but access was easily controlled. Also, as I recall (I live in Portland) there was no real fanfare, and there were a couple of decoy teams in the mix.


The spoilers in Portland were very real and potentially dangerous to the racers. The decoy teams were run after RFF made the concerns known. The threat of trouble at the Finish Line was VERY real.

Where could it possibly air in the Fall? CBS even let Jeremy Piven's bomb of a series air all 13 eps with sub 1.0 ratings even with an NFL bump and the allegations against him.

Unless they're holding it for a Spring run and not squeeze it in before Survivor.

Post by: theschnauzers on July 03, 2018, 09:40:27 PM
What was surprising about Portland was that a moderator at what was then TWOP forums, inadvertently spoilered the final location a day or two beforehand. That person at least asked about what to do  with the photographic evidence and things were barely kept under wraps until filming was completed.

As to today with the other information and the updated Detroit Free Press article, one can pretty much figure out what happened.
A team not finishing the final leg......That is extremely rare and off hand, I can only think of two seasons where that ever happened.

I think my soul will like the outcome, though. We'll have to see how production edits this outcome.

As to airing, there's always the chances new series bombing in the fall. But with the live plus 7 and live plus30 metrics CBS likes to use nowdays, I think those chances are remote.

As far as Leo and Jamal being so far behind the other 2 teams, I'm wondering if Leo couldn't/wouldn't finish the rappelling and they ended up taking a penalty. On the last leg though, it seems unlikely you would put yourself in that big a hole and hope you can make that up later. I'm not sure how they would handle a penalty too. I think they would want to avoid a team arriving at the finish line and having to wait out a penalty, so maybe they assess it on the spot? I

I really doubt that Leo & Jamal took penalty, especially in the finale. They don't look like one who's bad at physical challenge, except if Leo had some kind of injury that made him took penalty.

But about taking penalty in the finale, it had happened before in TAR Asia when Hussein took a penalty in the Roadblock (the task was tightrope walking in Marina Bay Sands similar to Singapore leg in Season 25), and they had to wait for 4 hours at the Roadblock location.

Well if that was a roadblock, it is their own fault because they could have elected Jamal to do that

Though i am not convinced for Leo having an eye problem. Production will never prohitbit a certain member to perform a roadblock unless an obvious handicap (e.g. Luke for sound challenge)

Here's an interesting bit of information from rlangmit on the Previously.tv Amazing Race forum about what the teams were doing at Hart Plaza while the musicians were playing.

I was at Hart Plaza and talked to a producer...

The final task was assembling a drum kit.  He said it took much longer than expected.  It was possible to watch Colin (in his blue shirt, which stood out, though I was unspoiled and didn't actually know who he was then!) and Christie running back and forth through the band, over and over.  It took forever for them to finish, including one break for the band.  So sick of Seven Nation Army!!


We thought maybe they were searching for a particular musician but it appears they had to assemble a drum kit to exacting standards.

I have no idea about drum kits. But could it really be that difficult for someone who might not be familiar with drums? More than an hour? That's amazing.

I have no idea about drum kits. But could it really be that difficult for someone who might not be familiar with drums? More than an hour? That's amazing.

I expect they will have a drum kit set up and teams will have to copy it exactly. Possibly they will have extra drums and parts that don't belong as well.

So really Colin and Christie are the best multiple time racers ever!! The only other ones to make final twic are brenchel who got third twice. Colin and Christie got 2nd the first time so they r obviously better to get better than third atleast once!! AM I correct?
You forgot Tyler and Korey who also made the finals twice.

Colin & Christie (S5) and Brenchel (S24) both got a NEL. It'll be interesting to see if Tyler and Korey make the finals again without ever coming in last on a NEL.

Imagine if Colin and Christie had been eliminated in the first leg of TAR5 (because Dennis and Erika did not let them have the taxi before them). That would have been a gigantic loss to TAR, and TAR5 would not have been that exciting. (And maybe TAR could have been cancelled early on.)

Given that the #PartnerSwap happened during a To-Be-Continued with an even number of teams, one can rule out Laos and the UK on account of both having confirmed eliminations.

Therefore, it can only occur in either the UAE or the second Swiss half (the latter itself necessitating a Rachel/Elissa boot at the end of the first European leg).

Yep. The ramp one is another one of those Japanese Game Show tasks, and the shoe task seems to be pretty much as you said with one of the teammates pointing at a particular shoe (maybe it involves some sort of game since Christie and Jamal are seen pointing at the same time?), and then both teammates eating something off of either side of the shoes.

I find it funny that the one press pic of Art/JJ is Art doing a faceplant on the Japanese game show task. I also noticed that every team is shown at the shoe task except for the first three boots. Two cases of accidental (or purposeful) foreshadowing lol.

Edit: Actually, those teams that weren't shown at the shoe task probably weren't shown because they were already shown in the press pics at the japanese game show task (with the exception of Britney and Bret who were shown at both), but it's still an interesting coincidence.

After reading Phil's assessment of the teams in the Parade interview, he mentions how teams shouldn't underestimate Rachel & Elissa. I wonder if they had been doing well throughout the early part of the Race (we rarely saw them with the other teams. Outside of that group airport photo, I don't think we saw them with anyone else other than Janelle/Britney and Leo/Jamal. They could've been far ahead or far behind.

But with Phil's comment, maybe they ended up being U-Turned out of the Race. Especially if the eventual final 4/5 teams minus Leo & Jamal were a loose alliance. (Again, judging from who seemed to always be together in photos)

I think I also read that Rachel and Janelle were critical of Nicole's gameplay on BB as well.

Will be interesting to see how much, if any, outside/pre-show relationships will be a factor in the show. Mostly between the BB teams really. I don't think the Survivor teams have significant pre-Race history with each other?

And the two TAR teams who have history with Rachel, I see them more working with her than against her, especially Leo & Jamal.

Leo seems to have a pretty good relationship with Rachel indeed (judging from their interaction on IG)

The best and fairest way to incorporate this twist would be after an HOH where teams sign on a list in order of arrival.

I think this was in Dubai when all the other teams were spotted at the early morning Pit Start without them and then all of a sudden Leo & Jamal and Rachel & Elissa popped up at the airport. I would like to believe they were far ahead of the other teams until we actually see the episode :funny:

Adding onto my list of random fun facts: Only the third time, and second time in a row where the bottom 3 teams in the first leg were eliminated from the race in that order.

First time ever that the bottom four teams in the first leg were eliminated in that order.

Also, IF Rachel and Elissa get u-turned by the u-turn vote like the previews of the season make it seem, it's the second season in a row where the 4th place team in leg one gets u-turned and eliminated in 7th place.

So does Phil himself conduct the U-Turn vote?! And with all teams present?! What in the world?! A U-Turn Vote Ceremony Council of some sort would be very strange.

But anyway, it looks like that location was indeed Switzerland. So it certainly looks more likely Rachel & Elissa were U-Turned out of the Race. And I could see everyone except Leo & Jamal and maybe Tyler & Korey likely voting for them.

What happened with the jellyfish balloons? And the Extreme Roadblock?

UNSEEN INFO:

The jelly fish balloons had a Tail--one of which contained an Advantage (An Extreme Roadblock) which would Allow the finding team to use the Extreme RB on another team sometime during the race, forcing them to do both RB's>>one each!!           

However...apparently that advantage was never used by the team who found it. So since it wasn't used in the course of the season and therefore had no effect on the outcome, the actual planned task was just edited out of the footage entirely.

Wowowow so that means, this season has the most placements in leg 1 that match the teams' final ranking.

I love statistics like this, and this one's indeed very strange and VERY similar to last season.

Were all teams on the same flight to Tokyo? I know last season they edited it to look like they were on the same flight but were actually on 2 different flights to Iceland (with the early flight being delayed).

The starting line task did indeed feel a bit pointless if they just got put onto the same flight, though I am curious which team won the "Extreme RB" advantage.

Is there a chance that Corinne & Eliza were eliminated in Dubai instead of Vietnam II? There was that pink hat photo spoiler and also someone saw them in Dubai according to GP, do you guys remember? It wasn't completely debunked, right? (I really loved them 1st episode so I want 1 more episode of them, lol.)

Do we have "confirmed" that there was only 9 teams in Leg 3? There could be NEL in F10 and then in F9.

I think that Becca & Floyd might've been U-Turned and then Leo & Jamal U-Turn another team to make sure Team Fun stays in the race.

In one of the preseason previews, you can see Leo & Jamal telling Becca & Floyd that they have their backs and Becca & Floyd thanking them. Now that we see where the U-Turn board was in Laos and that Leo & Jamal are probably using it, it's clear that the aforementioned conversation took place near the U-Turn baord.

Just something to consider :P

Winning BB13 and being the only female racer to reach two TAR finales just proved too much of a threat to keep at the Final Seven, to say nothing of America's Favourite BB15 Houseguest.

It was established back during filming that it wasn't that but rather that the person doing the roadblock would have to complete it to a greater extent than the other teams. For example, lets say a person has to sell 10 bowls of whatever, the extreme roadblock might force a team to have to sell 15. At least that's how I understood it.

In that scenario, it's possible that Becca and Floyd get U-turned and then the Afghanimals get to the U-turn board before Becca and Floyd and u-turn someone else to protect Becca and Floyd.

Honestly, I would have thought Colin and Christie, Tyler and Korey or Afghanimals would have been far more strategic choices to U-turn.

Also, those 3 aforementioned teams finished in the top 3 in the first leg, and will also end up in the final 3. Hence, this is the 4th time (after TAR1, 20, 30) that this has happened.

It’s actally where they have to do the Roadblock under more arduous conditions or to a higher level of completion.

There was probably something closer to the start of filming, but yeah.

Eliza is wearing a purple shirt in the Laos preview and a pink shirt in the basket boat clip, so it can't be Laos. Basket boats is most likely Vietnam.

Could it be a modified Switchback to TAR3? Similar to how they did a modified Switchback for the basket bikes as well. (Detour > Road Block instead)

Approx here (https://goo.gl/maps/gFv6X77p6FhPVuF57); probably looking for the footpath to Phuosi.

If Mt. Phousi was the pitstop and the Corinne and Eliza blocking the tuk-tuk scene was while they were looking for Phousi, because Rupert/Laura and the Afghanimals were in the tuk-tuk, that would mean that the Afghanimals are at the bottom of the pack and almost eliminated in this upcoming episode. Maybe they were the ones u-turned after all :spy:

They're running northeast and are well past the footpath to Phousi. My guess is that they're running towards Wat Sensoukharam, where they'll encounter an HoO and have to participate in the morning alms.

Possibly, can't be sure. We'll sort it out when we get the promo for next week showing whats in the first Vietnam leg. But I'm pretty sure timing wise, our night leg is first as leg 3 and the day one is leg 4.

Rachel and Elissa using the u-turn along with CBS including Brit/Janelle, Corinne/Eliza, and (of course) Becca/Floyd in their finish mat/post leg interviews on YouTube saying that they don't really trust the Reilly sisters almost confirms to me that the Reilly sisters are getting u-turn voted out of the game in Switzerland, though that was the popular thought already anyway lol. Granted, Brit/Janelle and Corinne/Eliza are going to be out of the game by the time the U-turn vote happens, but there was probably a reason for those parts being edited in (or I'm reading too much into it, but they're definitely setting up a distaste among the cast for the Reilly sisters).

Edit: Didn't want to make a separate post for this because I don't want to clog the thread, but also, since we know Leo and Jamal won leg 11, if they win 6 of the next 8 legs (or 5 of 8 and make a miraculous comeback in the finale), they break the record for most leg wins.

With this Afghanimal flop leg, the likely (?) winners of the race, Colin and Christie, now have the best finish average through 3 legs: 3.00

Nicole and Victor & Leo and Jamal close behind at 3.33.

Go back a little and you get Tyler and Korey & Rachel and Elissa next tied with 4.67

Early results are pretty indicative of the final 4. On a side note though, I have absolutely no idea how Chris and Bret sneak into the top 6, so that will be interesting to watch.

I would say Corinne & Eliza have been adjusting well. They would've had a Top 3 finish in Leg 2 if it weren't for their slow tuk tuk.

But yeah, Chris & Bret sneak into the Top 6 because the F/F teams start flopping hard. It'll be interesting to see if they dominate any legs like Nicole & Victor have gradually been doing.

I vaguely remember seeing a live sighting post back during filming in Dubai that said that Chris and Bret were in first at some point during the leg and thinking to myself "Wow, they might actually be a strong team" lol. So with that said, I guess it's possible that they jump ahead in a leg.

We have clear front runners already after 3 episodes.
Whereas Corinne & Eliza, Janelle & Brittney and obviously Chris & Bret are falling behind.

The situation looks like season 28 all over again.

The difference between this season and season 28 though is that one of the consistent back of the pack teams snuck into the final 3 and finished 2nd in S28. Nobody really sneaks up this season unless you consider Chris & Bret going to the top 6 as sneaking up. The top 4 teams in average right now legit make up the final 4 (Give Tyler and Korey tiebreaker over Rachel and Elissa for this scenario lol). Also, 5 of the top 6 teams in terms of average right now make up the top 5, and the one remaining team likely gets/got u-turned out of the race.

More significantly, Colin and Christie are the only team that hasn’t had a leg finish below 4th after 3 legs. And except for Tyler and Corey all the teams have evenly spilt roadblocks.

CBS doing Janelle and Britney dirty adding the extra hour and showing them getting eliminated on the day of their viewing party lol. On the flip side, Janelle and Britney already had a viewing party planned for May 22nd because that was the OG premiere date, so Janelle and Brit are also lucky that their elimination episode wasn't shown before May 22nd.

We have been discussing this quite a bit in the MEDIA thread.. :tup:

I get that, but I still feel like they should've let people know in the previews for the next week (or two weeks from now in this case) that there's going to be two episodes or two hours. Though, I'm sure that the commercials will emphasize the two episodes/hours.

Wedesnday May 22, will be a 2 hour episode from 8-10pm.
Leg 5: (Vietnam -> United Arab Emirates) first hour
Leg 6: (United Arab Emirates -> Uganda) second hour

This is from the CBS schedule for May 22.

CBS doing Janelle and Britney dirty adding the extra hour and showing them getting eliminated on the day of their viewing party lol. On the flip side, Janelle and Britney already had a viewing party planned for May 22nd because that was the OG premiere date, so Janelle and Brit are also lucky that their elimination episode wasn't shown before May 22nd.

Found it weird though that Phil didn't mention that it was a two-hour episode in the scenes from the next episode. Possible I could've missed that part though.

Even worse, they didn't even mention that there's no TAR next week. Usually they'd have Phil say "In two weeks..."

Much of that lack of updated promo, previews is probably because the change in the premiere date was so last minute. I think they just dropped the ball. After all, Game of Thrones had an anachronism of a Starbucks coffee cup in this past Sunday’s episode.
With the finalization of the last half of the season only now in focus, and with upfront this coming week, I think the promo monkeys had their hands full. And if they need fill to do updated voiceovers, there may simply had not been time.

Forgot to say this on Wednesday but continuing from my whole schtick last week about how the top teams in terms of average thus far reflect the endgame heavily, with the results of leg four and Rachel/Elissa dropping back a bit, the team averages right now almost exactly tell the finishing order. Pretty wild.

Colin & Christie: 2.5
Victor & Nicole: 3.0
Leo & Jamal: 4.0
Tyler & Korey: 4.75
Becca & Floyd: 4.75
Rachel & Elissa: 5.5
Janelle & Britney: 6.5
Chris & Bret 6.75

If you swap Vic and Nic and Tyler and Korey, you get the likely (though not confirmed as far as I know) top 5 finishing order exactly (but nonetheless, the top 5 in average right now legit makes up the top 5). Do that and then randomly flip Chris & Bret ahead of Rachel & Elissa and you get the entire finishing order. Predictability.

From the filming dates for the next two legs and their locations, a KOR leg is very unlikely.
My speculation leg 7 is the last NEL of the season, and the voting uturn is introduced in leg 8.
I am curious how US will implement the Voting Uturn twist, especially with the fact that there are still 7 teams racing.
I get an impression that whatever argument is being teased, might get into play into that.

The U-Turn Vote will probably play out like the Partner Swap. Phil surprises teams at an Hours of Operation and they hold the vote in front of each other, hence the tease from the season preview of Rachel being upset in front of the group.

I would prefer the vote happening like it does everywhere else. Right after the Pit Start or at the first Route Marker. Also, no teasing the teams. It would be more interesting.

Do you think all the other teams will up voting for the Reilleys?

And honestly, the teams are quite silly to target Reilleys when Colin and Christie are far bigger threats. Or maybe C and C manage to get some sort of immunity from this?

I think the only team who wouldn't vote for the Reillys are Leo & Jamal.

The Reillys would probably get votes from Becca & Floyd to pay them back for the U-Turn in Laos (with the typical "We like everyone else." kind of explanation). Then Nicole & Victor after whatever happens in the next Leg. Plus Tyler & Korey after the eye rolls at the airport during Laos>Vietnam.

If it's a "Vote Ceremony" type of deal, C&C and Chris & Bret could easily just go with the majority as well.

I get why TAR would want to do it in this way, if that's the case. But I prefer the "normal" way where teams don't really get a time to strategize or talk to each other before hand. At least since this would be the first time they'd ever encounter such a thing. It also makes it easier to gang up on one team.

Plus, it would be fun if 2 or more teams tied and they were all U-Turned  :lol:

Well, I was wrong lol. Should've known from the season preview after episode one and the edit the entire time that it wasn't going to be something like adding onto a speed bump. Still find it dumb that they get u-turned instead of a more threatening team, though I guess they kinda ruined that themselves.

I just hope next week's u-turn vote will be anonymous (everyone vote secretly) and not the ceremony-like, so that teams will not simply just go with the majority to get one team out.

Maybe they should have worked similar to the Israel season 3's voting double u-turn, where the team got voted the most can have the opportunity to u-turn a team.

Given what happen with the Reilly’s this leg with the other teams, the U Turn vote will most likely be their downturn. They’ve done poorly on most of the legs, and they’ve really made enemies of
Nicole and Victor who I guess make known their displeasure over this leg’s events to the other teams.

There are 3 information that seemed to be hammered on throughout last nights episode, that it's interesting to speculate over here.

1) UTurn Paranoia e Uturn Vote for leg 8.
That turned messy quick. I think from the content that has been edited in, there's no way that Reilly sisters won't be uturned next week. There are 7 teams racing, potentially (emphasis, in potential) in Uturn vote, if this is done with the same rules as from the other TAR versions, is that if teams tie in number votes, all of the are uturned. By those rules all teams could be uturned, if everybody voted for a different team. That would never happen. But realistically, a vote with 7 teams could still make that into a double or triple uturn, which I think won't happen here at all. From all the events we've seen, I think it's very likely that the Reilly sisters get majority of votes, and that will doom them. With 7 teams racing, 3 votes are enough to get any team the majority and getting uturned. If Fun, Leo & Jamal, and Victor and Nicole all vote for the Reilly's, they're uturned. If Reilly keep gunning for Fun, it almost doesn't matter how the the other 3 vote, unless all 3 of them choose another same team to vote on.

2) Rachel breaking records
Phil was specific by wording that if she completes next leg, she'll hold the new record. Even if they are Uturned, and are eliminated by the end of leg 8, if she hits the mat, Rachel will still become the new record holder of completed legs.

3) Only TAR teams have won legs so far.
Now, I am going into Timeline and Sightings territory. We know who are the final 3, and we know the finishing order of the teams in leg 11. We also have enough information to be able to infer about which teams are eliminated in fifth and sixth. So with all the insistence about only TAR teams winning legs so far, I think Victor and Nicole, might be pulling a Jet & Cord, and maybe getting a win on leg 8.

didn't the live sighting of Vicole's post leg interview in London confirmed that they haven't won a leg at all?

Oh. Guess I missed that sighting. (Update - Found it. It was part of Fossil's comment on the video that was recorded)
So by conjecture, if Vicole won no legs, then unless Chris & Bret pull a win in Switzerland 2 (leg 8 ), all legs will be won by TAR teams, right?

There are 3 information that seemed to be hammered on throughout last nights episode, that it's interesting to speculate over here.

1) UTurn Paranoia e Uturn Vote for leg 8.
That turned messy quick. I think from the content that has been edited in, there's no way that Reilly sisters won't be uturned next week. There are 7 teams racing, potentially (emphasis, in potential) in Uturn vote, if this is done with the same rules as from the other TAR versions, is that if teams tie in number votes, all of the are uturned. By those rules all teams could be uturned, if everybody voted for a different team. That would never happen. But realistically, a vote with 7 teams could still make that into a double or triple uturn, which I think won't happen here at all. From all the events we've seen, I think it's very likely that the Reilly sisters get majority of votes, and that will doom them. With 7 teams racing, 3 votes are enough to get any team the majority and getting uturned. If Fun, Leo & Jamal, and Victor and Nicole all vote for the Reilly's, they're uturned. If Reilly keep gunning for Fun, it almost doesn't matter how the the other 3 vote, unless all 3 of them choose another same team to vote on.

2) Rachel breaking records
Phil was specific by wording that if she completes next leg, she'll hold the new record. Even if they are Uturned, and are eliminated by the end of leg 8, if she hits the mat, Rachel will still become the new record holder of completed legs.

3) Only TAR teams have won legs so far.
Now, I am going into Timeline and Sightings territory. We know who are the final 3, and we know the finishing order of the teams in leg 11. We also have enough information to be able to infer about which teams are eliminated in fifth and sixth. So with all the insistence about only TAR teams winning legs so far, I think Victor and Nicole, might be pulling a Jet & Cord, and maybe getting a win on leg 8.

There was a sighting of the post-leg interviews in England during filming and Nicole and Victor said they never finished first, so that's a negative on the last part of number 3.
Makes me wonder why everyone was so on edge about the U-Turn. There is ALWAYS a caution in the clue at the Pit Start making teams aware of the U-Turn. Jumped the gun for no reason.

That's what I was wondering too because the social media mob was hoping Rachel & Elissa get eliminated so she wouldn't be able to break the record. But I was like. Wait, she'd still break the record even if eliminated.

I guess it'll be a short lived record though that'll get broken by Leo & Jamal, right? But definitely still the most by a female Racer.

Did anyone notice how they didn't show departure times at the beginning of Leg 7? (not that they matter anymore :groan: )

I thought it was interesting because I recall them showing departure times at the start of Leg 5, following the unaired Head to Head in Leg 4. The departure times were oddly staggered even though most of the teams were apparently already at the Pit Stop by the third H2H. 

I'm curious as to how long teams have to even wait in between H2H's. We saw Phil doing some commentary last leg only for him to be magically at the Pit Stop after each H2H. Honestly it seems like a lot of unnecessary work for such a lame twist.

I don't see how they're "lowkey," but okay. They, Leo & Jamal and Becca & Floyd are the worst camwhores this season.

Joey was the main offender between him and Meghan in TAR22, but when you talk about lowkey, that was them in TAR24 even if they had a short run. Plus they're much more pleasant outside of the Race as well. Among other things, Tyler especially likes to clap back at people who don't worship [/hyperbole] them. Or people who don't think we should be grateful they're gracing us with their television presence.

Like at viewers or racers? ??? I did find it dumb that he (and Korey) were upset about Team Fun U-Turning them when they literally did the same thing to Brodie & Kurt in S28.

And the "lowkey"ness could just be their edit for me, idk. Like I definitely think up to this point we've been graced with Rachel/Corinne/Eliza overload to the point where they've just been kind of in the background.

Do you guys think Tyler and Korey will be invited for a third time? They will be able to break the record that will be held by Leo and Jamal for most legs run, if Tyler and Korey reach the final leg for the third time. Tyler (and Korey) are a lot more low key this season, but it's probably because there are bigger personalities this time round. (Now, would have thought?)

Actually I would prefer Colin and Christie to get the record for most legs raced, but TAR seems reluctant to invite teams that have achieved a certain status.  :duno:

Are they voting for 1 or 2 teams to be uturned? Double uturn would make more sonse to me, single uturn used to be death kiss in previous seasons.

So maybe double uturn vote, and both Reillys and Colin & Christie were uturned?

So by conjecture, if Vicole won no legs, then unless Chris & Bret pull a win in Switzerland 2 (leg 8 ), all legs will be won by TAR teams, right?

Yup! Which kind of sucks, as this was supose to be a battle of the shows lol. I would argue only Nicole/Victor were really a competitive teams out of the 6 'other's.
Chris/Brett could have won the Dubai leg, that was close. But they are really up and down so who knows.

Agreed that it kind of sucks. I kept expecting that we'd see a non-TAR team win at least a leg, especially after they chose to edit in that great Christie line about teams lasting as long in the race, qualifying them as Amazing Race teams, adding it the mention of only TAR teams winning so far. As I completely blanked out about that Vicole sighting, if any non-TAR team had a chance of at least winning a leg, it would be them.

The other four teams are seen at the Cow hoisting task, so idk how that would eliminate Nic and Vic from being u-turned. It seems like a task that every team had to do. I was actually thinking the opposite that they do get u-turned. If I had to guess right now, Becca and Floyd and Nic and Vic get u-turned and Becca and Floyd (as we know) get eliminated, but my guess is as good as yours. There are a lot of tasks in the press photos so I'm not exactly sure which task is which in terms of detours and roadblocks. My guess is that the cow hoisting is an ARI, detour is boats vs the vaulting thing, and then there's another task involving eggs that idk much about, but again, those are just guesses. In any case, if those are the detours (which im pretty confident that the boats thing is definitely a detour and the Cow hoisting isn't a detour at the least), Nic and Vic are seen doing both the boats and vaulting task in the press photos (https://www.cbspressexpress.com/cbs-entertainment/shows/the-amazing-race/photos?page=1 (https://www.cbspressexpress.com/cbs-entertainment/shows/the-amazing-race/photos?page=1)) so there's that.

From Peach's reply at the live sighting thread (#193), cow hoisting is probably a detour (you can see the detour clue on Christie's hand)
Cycling is probably the mode of transportation they are using though

Nah, the reason I eliminated it from being a detour is that if the boat and cow things were both detours, then that would mean that Leo/Jamal, Collin/Christie, and Tyler/Korey were all u-turned because they're shown doing both, which is impossible. So that means either the boat task is a detour or the cow hoisting is a detour but not both of them unless there's some crazy switching going on. It would also be weird if a detour was just carrying a fake cow and having 40 seconds to hoist it up. Maybe she had a detour clue from the prior task? Or you're right. Idk lol.

I don't think this has been raised up, but didn't Phil claim the H2H on leg 6 the 'first' H2H of this season? That means we are having at least one more H2H in the remaining legs.

With leg 10 has a u-turn in play, will we re-consider the task at the London pit-stop a H2H instead?

If that turns out to be the situation...  :groan:  Why do we have to have a Final 3 decided by H2H  :groan:

There's another pitstop task in Camdan Market, so that's explains why Phil have clues on pitstop.

So...remember how none of us could understand why the almost last music task was placed in such a public place JUST before the Mat? Letting the world watch??

Apparently that task was originally permitted to be on an island...which prob would have meant zero spoilers.

But for some reason the permit was withdrawn and so they had to fast find another location...and the Plaza was what they got.

Production just had to do the best they could.... which was great for spoilers but lousy for keeping secrets!!

Yep, seems like they had a couple days to find an alternate location though. It was denied at least a week before the leg was filmed.

The Detroit Free Press did report at the time about the withdrawal of the island permit because of the number of people that was needed for a the Seven Nation Army band performance. That was about a week or so before the finale. They actually had only a couple of days, because they needed to recruit performers and get permits to close the Plaza for filming.

Thanks redwings! I think it would have been much better if filmed there instead of the massive spoilers that then happened so close to the Mat.

From what can be gathered from people who spoke with racers, I believe Justin (TAR27) even mentioned it in his Racer Recap show, was that Tyler & Korey were the ones who found it. And that's probably one of the main reasons it was left unused, as just like EPs, it probably expired around Leg 8. The way they were racing, they built such good relationships with the other teams, that even though they were winning legs, they were a team that did not get even a single vote during that uturn vote.
Purely speculative, but if a BB or Survivor team found it or even if Art & JJ were the ones to find it, things might have turned out differently.

See, that makes a lot of sense, but weren't Tyler & Korey one of the last teams to finish the first Sand task? They still attempted to find the Extreme Roadblock in last place ???
