I really hope we get a sighting soon!

Also,I don't know if this is the right thread to ask this question,so if I'm in the wrong,moderators please move it. Can anyone tell me which season of TAR has been the most spoiled on RFF?

It depends on how you measure the spoiling of a season. For example, we had a detailed boot list for Season 11, but it depends if you measure it according to contestants, tasks or destinations.
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

2 photos from our friend who spotted the teams in Kamakura at Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gu Shrine at around 1:30PM on Friday 11/25/10.
:hearts:





Shadows are pointing in opposite directions - not a Pit Stop then?

LaKisha/Jen look like they're running out, Jet/Cord running in. Sun should be slightly west of due south.

jasteo: transiting at hk airport and bumped into the amazing race film crew! eggcited!

possibly they're the crew in charge of tasks for the next location.

and without sightings until now, it's pretty much leaning to a double leg in japan i think...


You may be right.Oh,I wish there were more sightings in Japan!

They could also be the crew that was left to clean up things AFTER the teams left Japan.....we really dont know what it is.

Thanks kinibug!!!
Anytime :) I was just about to say that that's in Brunei...interesting.Has TAR ever been there before?


They went to Kota Kinabalu in TAR 3..........which is in Malaysian Borneo

kb might be Kuala Belait.........That coast is pretty famous for oil production.....the reason the Japanese captured it during WWII.

Kota Kinabalu is part of Malaysia.. while Borneo is part of Brunei.. ohh, geography lesson learnt today. I always thought Borneo's part of Malaysia! :-[

I don't think physically TAR has stepped into Brunei.. but again, all these are speculation.. i searched and poked my head around and didn't find anything else about TAR in Brunei.. :(

Borneo is just a really big island.  Part belongs to Sultan of Brunei, part to Malaysia and part to Indonesia.

It is probably a local thing.....the TAR part
:groan: Yea, i just figured out! More geography lessons! :tup:

I checked the schedule of fights,there actually was a direct one from Hong Kong to the capital of Brunei Bandar Seri Begawan,departure time is 2:40 pm,which could make sense that someone did witnessed the production team in HK airport this afternoon around 2 pm  :'( :'( :'(

which kills me is if the teams really made connected flight in HK,then they probably not gonna come to the mainland of China this season,it really sucks!!! :knuckles: :knuckles:

Nice.So maybe all the teams had boarded their flights and production was rushing to catch theirs?

There is two production crews.......they flip flop the places.......while one is cleaning up in Japan......another one is already on the ground in the next place. Then the japaness crew will go forward to where they are going and be ready when they get there......if that makes sense.

sorry,I'm slightly confused.Wouldn't there be another crew that would be with the teams?

Okay.........here it is maybe simpler........they had one crew in Australia setting up those two legs...........at the same time....one crew was in Japan setting up that leg(s). When the teams flew to Japan......they went with their cameraman/soundman team.....maybe a couple of Production ASSTs.....BVM and Elise travel too.....then the Aussie crew went to what ever comes after Japan...lets call it Country XX.....when teams leave Japan for Country XX.........the Japanese crew will fly to Country YY.....and start setting that up......does that make more sense?

If so,I think XX is China since they transmit at HongKong...YY is a country in southeast Asia...
