 :cmaslol True, what was I thinking when I posted that :iok

What if Abbie & Ryan were able to U-Turn Josh & Brent (with the Dream Team not thinking of their smart move of purposely wasting the second U-Turn)?

What if Jabba hadn't lost their passports :cmaslol ?

What if Jeff and Jordan had survived in Leg 6?
What if Brent and Caite had to U-Turn Jet and Cord?

They would survive over Brent and Caite , and would make it to the finals!

Jet and Cord would make an epic comeback in Carol and Brandy.

Thanks for sharing, Declive.

What if TAR9 had actually 13 legs, Phil described St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow in fact the third Pit Stop of the race?
Perhaps Legs 3 and 4 formed a Super Leg?

What if Bill & Cathi were the first to read the sign at the orphanage? They would've surpassed Jet & Cord for the greatest comeback ever :cmas4 (11th to 1st with a Speed Bump).

They would have tied Derek & Drew for the biggest climb in positions. I was hoping they'd do that, though I don't think it would have really changed much season-wise.

What if Bopper didn't break his leg in Tanzania?

What if Vanessa didn't sprain her ankle in Cochin?

What if Flight Time & Big Easy didn't give up on the Road Block in Prague?

1. They would have gotten 2nd or 3rd in the second Cochin leg. Not very likely they will get 1st or 2nd in Osaka despite the game show RB. Finale will be a mystery...

2. Wouldn't really make a big difference... They still would have gotten 4th.

3. Brian & Ericka would be eliminated from the 30-min. penalty and the Globetrotters would get 2nd in Las Vegas. Meghan & Cheyne did everything fairly quickly that leg.

Why would they still get 4th automatically, the injury was the main reason they were eliminated. Besides 2 other teams got lost looking for the pit stop. Im curious for your reasoning.

After seeing her run at the starting line sprint, I think she would have made one less attempt run to reach the chicken. Vanessa/Ralph and Brendon/Rachel seemed like they were closer, but if it wasn't for the twisted leg, they would be having a foot race to the Pit Stop and Rachel can beat her. (Vanessa didn't have much endurance during her foot race to the PS in Paraguay.)

The 30-min penalty would probably not have mattered unless the Globetrotters would have been stupid enough to do the Beer task (the Golem was faster). I believe that the Globetrotters would have gotten 3rd that leg if Big Easy had gotten the roadblock (or if Flight Time had done it).

What if Cyndi and Russell went to correct city for not catching with trailing teams to the Pit Stop?
What if Tian and Jaree beat Reichen and Chip to the Pit Stop?
What if Kelly and Jon had to use the Fast Forward?
What if Reichen and Chip had to read the clues to the Pit Stop in Sunshine Coast?
What if David and Jeff joined the other two teams at the final city?

What if Tammy & Victor got A LOT MORE lost in Romania?
What if Brad & Victoria NEVER saw the Amsterdam connecting flight?
What if Christie & Jodi beat the stuntmen to the India Pit Stop?

What if Tian and Jaree beat Reichen and Chip to the Pit Stop?

Think they could have a shot at F3, considering Millie and Chuck and Kelly and Jon were so lost at the two F5 legs. Both Jon and Al and David and Jeff stumbled at the F4 legs. Reichen and Chip were the only ones who raced decently since Leg 8 - finale. So, if Reichen and Chip got eliminated, then Tian and Jaree at least has a shot at F3 because every remaining team stumbled in at least one leg... but anything could happen.

So, if Reichen and Chip got eliminated, then Tian and Jaree at least has a shot at F3 because every remaining team stumbled in at least one leg... but anything could happen.

Hmmm... let's  think about this. My memory's probably a bit hazy considering I haven't watched TAR4 in ages, but here goes.

India 2 - Obviously Reichen and Chip are eliminated from the race.
Malaysia 1 - Major stuff up by Kelly & Jon, NELd; no effect on Tian & Jaree.
Malaysia 2 - Kelly & Jon takes the FF because Reichen & Chip are eliminated and Tian & Jaree have already won a FF; no epic Kelly & Jon v Millie & Chuck race; POSSIBLY Tian & Jaree also get lost, but presuming they don't (only 2 teams got lost that leg anyway) it's either an epic footrace to the finish which Tian & Jaree win because of Millie's asthma or it's an easy cruise for Tian & Jaree to the finish in a position other than 1st.
South Korea - I can't remember if teams are flight bunched or not, but David & Jeff majorly stuff up; either way its a NEL and Tian & Jaree are safe for yet another leg.
Australia 1 - Jon & Al stuff up the flight, and ultimately get eliminated. MAYBE Tian & Jaree get on the same flight as them, but highly doubtful; nobody takes a taxi to the pitstop apart from POSSIBLY Tian & Jaree, but I don't think they would lose any ground against the performance of Reichen & Chip, so they do get into the final 3!
Australia 2 - A leg that nobody cares about.
Finale - Either they take the flight with David & Jeff, creating THE MOST BORING FINALE EVER! or they fight it out in an epic battle with Kelly & Jon.

Either way, if Tian & Jaree bet Reichen & Chip they would've won one (or both) of these records: First all female team to reach the F3 OR First all female team to win The Amazing Race.

Also, the winners would've been much better. :P

What if Shola & Doyin hadn't gotten hopelessly lost in Namibia?

Namibia - Shola & Doyin don't get lost, they come at least 1 position higher, which results in a Chris & Alex elimination.
Thailand 1 - Cyndi & Russell were sufficiently behind to not bother the situation, Shola & Doyin reaches F6.
Thailand 2 -  NEL, Tara/Wil or Shola/Doyin NEL, doesn't matter.
Hong Kong - Mary/Peach de facto surrender, Shola/Doyin reach F5.
Australia 1 - NEL, leg doesn't matter.
Australia 2 - Fast forward NOT TAKEN this leg, possibility for either Tara/Wil or Blake/Paige to take the FF. Either one would get on the first charter flight, although this is moot because they did anyway. Gary/Dave stuff up bigtime; Shola/Doyin survive the leg.
New Zealand 1 - NEL, therefore doesn't matter.
New Zealand 2 - Oswald & Danny start the leg behind, never catch up. It is possible that Shola & Doyin do the same thing, but unlikely. Either way F3 is either made up of Blake & Paige, Tara & Wil and Oswald & Danny or Shola & Doyin.
US 1 - NEL, doesn't matter.
US 2 - On the final flights into San Fran, Blake & Paige stuff up (or was it the taxis?). If it was the taxis, the non existence of Chris & Alex could put them into a better cab, giving them a run for their money. Tara & Wil scream at the random and stuff up. Shola & Doyin could take the place of Chris & Alex and win, or Oswald & Danny or even Blake & Paige. However we wouldn't see the epic footrace.

But if the donkeys really were well-cooperative... what would Nate & Jen and Ari & Staella's overall placements?
