[LandonM170]

Wow that is very good! Love that idea however knowing the backlash from the Double Elimination would probably just replace it, and cancel the leg 2 NEL but this is amazing (pun intended)!! 

[ianthebalance]

I haven't made a wishlist route in a while. Luckily a lot of what I made a few years ago actually ended up in 32 (Manaus, Kazakhstan, Hyderabad, Siem Reap, New Orleans). Anyways, here is my TAR 34 Route (in a hypothetical that things are fine enough in these areas in the world, since who knows).

TAR 34:
1. Busan, South Korea (Fly into Seoul at 4:20/4:50am, get clue to take train to someplace in central South Korea, then after that task take a train to Busan.)
2. Kathmandu, Nepal
3. Mountainous Nepal
4. Ankara, Turkey 
5. Kiev, Ukraine
6. Odessa, Ukraine (via train)
7. Naples, Italy
8. Port Elizabeth, South Africa
9. Port Elizabeth, South Africa (both legs in the general region)
10. Montevideo, Uruguay
11. Santiago, Chile
12. Miami, USA

Edit: I decided to look at the most recent wishlist before this and see some similarities lol

[claude_24hrs]

6 continents and no double leg countries!! 

[ianthebalance]

I like having some double leg countries and just 4-5 continents lol

[LandonM170]

I like having some double leg countries and just 4-5 continents lol

I do like these however a 6 continent race is so overdue, and I do like double legs however seeing S32 with no double leg countries I am really loving the idea of seeing more of the world and visiting more (11-13) countries in one season (rather than the 9-10).

[Kiwi Jay]

I am interested to see that there has been some discussion about an all-winners season. I also think there is ample opportunity to do an Unfinished Business season. So I thought I'd post here and see what people think of my lists and who they think I've missed out / would be likely to be asked!

For an all-winners, I think the most likely to be asked are:
1. Rob & Brennan
2. Flo & Zach
3. Chip & Kim
4. BJ & Tyler
5. Nick & Starr
6. Tammy & Victor
7. Meghan & Cheyne
8. Nat & Kat
9. Kisha & Jen
10. Ernie & Cindy
11. Josh & Brent
12. Dave & Connor
13. Amy & Maya
14. Kelsey & Joey
15. Brooke & Scott
16. Colin & Christie

I have a calculated guess as to who wins 32, no spoilers allowed here, but believe they would be asked for sure.
The other couples have either split or were less exciting, but am interested to see if others disagree with this list. I think there is a good cast here. But won't be 50% BIPOC, likely even if you include LGBTQI+ so that could prove tough.

As for Unfinished Business, I have gone from 25-32 for teams, however there are three teams that stand-out as teams the producers wanted back for 18 or 24, but either couldn't get or had to withdraw. They could upset the apple cart for an Unfinished Business for sure!

1. Brook & Claire (17)
2. Bopper & Mark (20)
3. Tim & Marie (23)

Now to the 25-32 teams:

4. Adam & Bethany (25) - fell behind at final roadblock
5. Kym & Alli (25) - fast forward mistake cost them
6. Shelley & Nici (25) - less likely - got lost in Morocco
7. Hayley & Blair (26) - fell behind after Hayley's mistake at roadblock
8. Justin & Diana (27) - cab left them on final leg, couldn't make up mere minutes
9. Tiffany & Krista (27) - eliminated on penultimate leg after Krista's mistakes at roadblock
10. Denise & James Earl (27) - cab driver took them to wrong pitstop Leg 9, couldn't make up error next leg
11. Ernest & Jin (27) - couldn't make up for lost time and being on the later bus to San Antonio de Areco
12. Sheri & Cole (28) - fell behind after Sheri's mistakes at jumping roadblock
13. Tyler & Korey (28-31) - so close on two occasions, time to seal the deal
14. Brodie & Kurt (28) - U-Turned out
15. Erin & Joslyn (28) - Erin's parachute wouldn't open on the side of the mountain
16. Matt & Redmond (29) - bad choice of transportation, choosing the metro in Seoul - fell behind
17. Becca & Floyd (29-31) - Floyd's heat stroke and later U-Turned out
18. Kristi & Jen (30) - fell behind at the final challenge despite being ahead
19. Alex & Conor (30) - eliminated on penultimate leg after confounding final challenge in Hong Kong
20. Lucas & Brittany (30) - passport loss
21. Chris & Bret (31) - eliminated in Croatia after challenging coin find Detour pushed them to last
22. Kaylynn & Haley (32) - double-Yield in India
23. Leo & Alana (32) - Yielded and bad Detour mistakes
24. Michelle & Victoria (32) - got lost in Paris

There are two other teams of the F4 in Season 32 who I believe would be asked back if they do indeed lose out...

@Kiwi Jay

for all winners I would really like: As for TAR32, none of them would get a call I think... Maybe if Hung and Chee win.

11 teams + 5 alternates (I realize with this list we really have a lot of options)


1) Rob & Brennan, TAR1 (They NEED to be there)
2) Chip & Kim, TAR 5
3) BJ & Tyler, TAR 9
4) Tammy & Victor, TAR 14
5) Dan & Jordan, TAR 16
6) Nat & Kat, TAR 17
7) Ernie & Cindy, TAR 19
Rachel & Dave, TAR 20 (They dominated would be great to see thema gain)
9) Jason & Amy, TAR 23 (They are low of my list, but we need one random team, and they would be a good fit)
10) Amy & Maya, TAR 25
11) Cody & Jessica, TAR 30 (I'm sure CBS would want that)

Alternates:

- Uchenna & Joyce, TAR 7 (I don't remember if it's them or Chip and Kim who divorced, but maybe they could race as ex)
- Nick and Starr, TAR 13 (If Victor and Tammy can't)
- Kisha & Jen, TAR 18 (Already race twiced, so I guess if one of the two F/F can't, they would be a good alternate
- Josh & Brent, TAR 21 (for redemption?)
- Brooke & Scott, TAR 29

[Retroknight12]

I had a really weird idea for a season. What if all the teams competed for charities. I know that no matter what place a team gets on the show, they still get $. So what if for a season, they got celebrities, a mix of people from like acting and maybe youtube again, and had them compete for a charity. That way people wouldnt complain like they did when The Mole did it. They wouldn't be competing for themselves and the whole "But they already have a lot of money" wouldn't matter. Each place before the final leg could get like X cash and then the winners gets a million dollars donated to the charity of their choosing.
