yep, maybe they struggled at the tasks in Singapore, but there is also chance that they lost in the FF battle, there's a FF clue shown in the Singapore leg, right?

In any case, I feel that Kym/Alli are stronger than Amy/Maya and Brooke/Robbie most of the time, so their elimination may be due to one of these reasons.

Amy & Maya do pretty well in the tasks.  Where they struggle is with navigation.  But this plus the fact that Kym & Alli are athletes would make Amy & Maya less of a threat than Kym & Alli, so I can see the cyclists being eliminated due to losing a FF battle, having a struggle with tasks in Singapore, being U-Turned, or a combination of these factors!

Kym and Alli's chances of getting uturned are pretty high at this point in my opinion.

Maybe they win or not? Because something feels me that Amaya win this season.

But I find that Adathany or Amaya may win.

^^ done.

My spec for F3 finish is

Adam and Bethany wins, Dentists second and Scientists third.

Anything can happen but at least for me, the edit right now seems to be pointing towards that way. But then again Chips were darn popular in TAR 21 and they didn't win too...

Well, the idea that the press photos taken before the race begins could support a possible win by the Surfers because they were in the middle area in one shot.  However, so were the Scientists -- and they were in the middle in the second photo!

I'm hoping for a come-from-behind win by the Scientists, but I'd be happy with the Surfers winning.

There's no theory behind middle of photo wins the race or the third place curse. -_-

 )-**

kthxbye

Similarly, there's not much of a theory behind a "winner's edit" or whatsoever but in recent season, the team who wins is always edited more positively than the others for at least the past 5 seasons.

- Dave and Connor victimised by Brenchel's U-TURN incident even though they were no way better than Brechels (but Brenchel got the negative edit..)
- Jason and Amy victimised by Tim and Marie's cab incident + helping Nicole and Travis EVEN THOUGH they were not that nice to Afghanimals (and Tim and Marie got the negative edit)
- Bates and Anthony not included in the Mona and Beth and Youtube hate (but second placers Max and Katie got all near to negative edit)
- Josh and Brent as the race underdogs and not included within the Twinnies/Chips/Trelexi VS Ryan and Abbie saga (Twinnie got all the negative edit)
- Dave and Rachel were not exactly nice to Brenchels either, but Ralph and Vanessa and Art and JJ got the negative edit

But the edit theory may not exactly work for TAR 19 or 18... Where Gary and Mallory got an excellent edit and the final 3 teams in TAR 19 weren't really included in any negativity with one another...

So banking that this theory has worked well for 5 seasons in a row....... make your own conclusions. :funny:

Yeah, I think Ernie & Cindy got the most negative edit out of the recent seasons (maybe Dave & Connor, depends on how you take their edit into account). I really thought Jeremy & Sandy were going to win - due to their lack of screen time.

Back on topic - I was thinking Amy & Maya would win due to their lack of screen time and they're truly the narrators of this Race. They and Adam/Bethany have the least offensive edit, so this is tough.

If Misti/Jim win.......

I didn't hate Ernie & Cindy but I know others did.

Anyway, if Misti & Jim win I won't be too happy.  But I doubt they'll win.

The editing is pretty negative for Misti & Jim, that's why.  They seem too cocky.  Adam & Bethany and even Amy & Maya seem more likely to win according to editing.

Do Flight Time and Big Easy TAR 18 count as negative editing? They got on feud with Kent & Vyxsin in leg 10, and they're bad liars (once trying to lie about flights in Leg 11). I doubt it, though. GO AMAYA! I don't wanna male/female team win again, or male/male team.

I really hope the Amy & Maya edit isn't a Mona & Beth 2.0.

Mona and Beth had a negative edit if you ask me. But certainly Ernie and Cindy's one wasn't good as compared to Amani and Marcus and Jeremy and Sandy, but it really wasn't that bad. If you ask me, if they didn't win, they would have blown up how they U-TURNed Bill and Cathi 10 times worst to make the viewers hate them :funny:

Here's hoping that edit plays a part this season and Misti and Jim doesn't win -_-

I think that no one will U-Turn Adam & Bethany, despite them being a threat. No one wants to U-Turn the one-armed girl who inspires thousands, if not millions, of people with her story.

But if ever they were U-Turned, at least they won't whine and whine and make an alliance against who U-Turned them!!!!!1

Good joke  :funny:

I have a feeling that Brooke and Robbie were eliminated in the Philippines due to taxi troubles because in her recap for the Palermo leg on her youtube channel she was explaining how taxis can really kill you and I do know that they mentioned it in the Palermo leg but... Just watch the video and you will know what i mean  :)

I think no one can't u-turn them because from the preview we saw Bethany holding the fast forward clue.  They probably will win leg 9 and also leg 8 'coz they still have the express pass. I really wanted Kym and Alli win one more leg before they eliminated in Singapore  :'(
