You may not have found any good Enron jokes, but that doesn't keep someone from making one up, just to try and get the points for answering YES.

Example ...... "Why did the Enron executive cross the road? Trying to keep away from the financial auditors!"

Or how about this one .... "What's black and white, and red all over? An embarrassed Enron exective, wearing his prison attire!"

I know, not very funny! But those  were just off the top of my head. If someone were to really think, they could probably come up with something funny!

Dameche, I'm ready to partner up, gal.  We're gonna kick some major butt.  I'll be in any alliance who wants to.  I hate the yield as much as the racers do.
I'm pantless but not hatless!! :ass:  Yup, I'm shirtless now, too :boobs:

Who is eliminated on this leg of the race? (100 Minutes of Fame)  Megan & Heidi
 
Which team finishes first? (60 Minutes of Fame)  Debbie & Bianca Actually, I think it should be Patrick & his mom, since they are on the same truck with Rob and Amber. Then Debbie & Bianca are maybe on the truck 20 minutes later. So if Romber got lost, Sue & Patrick should be able to get first.

Who arrives at the Road Block first? (30 Minutes of Fame)  There's no Road Block 
 
Who completes the Road Block first? (30 Minutes of Fame)  There's no Road Block

Who arrives at the Detour first? (30 Minutes of Fame)  Debbie & Bianca

Who completes the Detour first (30 Minutes of Fame)  Rob & Amber 

How many racers hug Phil? (25 Minutes of Fame)  4

Will Meredith do the Road Block? (20 Minutes of Fame)  No

Will Susan do the Road Block? (20 Minutes of Fame)  No
 
Will Ray do the Road Block? (20 Minutes of Fame)  No 
 
Will Chuck do the Road Block? (20 Minutes of Fame)  No
 
Will Joyce do the Road Block? (20 Minutes of Fame)  No

ooo, a three way. i love it!  shh, don't tell x_kicks.  {l{  is he going to run in the race again?

we can work togther here for a final 4 dash at the the end. but more important, let's have some fun!

almost forgot, we can keep the team name or maybe we can come up with something else? either works for me. it was a lucky name.
always remember....when life hands you lemons, ask for tequila and salt and call me over!

  Re: The Amazing CybeRace - NEW [In reply to] 
Here is the confirmed list of players:
1. puddin & cinniii
2. tanbuns & canadiangal
3. DrScottJMD & profplum (oh my, a doc and a prof, a brainy team)
4. BatmanWell & Mrs Kutz
5. Mike-e & gammonwoman
6. mtjaws & Vecepiafan
7. dameche & Swanee 44
8. Talico & Eupolis
9. acepayne & Mateui

Left 2 slots! Chameleon, Glebe, BigExit, sailorspazz, Zumbiiido, please get a partner soon. I will reserve a slot for you. The max I can accept is 14 teams in total. So hurry.

Features of the Games

FF

It will be available on every leg of the race, except for the season finale. It overrides the yield. A 5% increase will be given to your team on the next episode for coming in first.

Yield

It will be avaiable on every leg of the race. You must be higher in average weekly score to yield another team. For example, if a team gets 235 in episode 5, you need to get above 235 in episode 5, to yield that team in episode 6. You can only use it on another team, not your own.

A yield will mean you get a 10% decrease for that episode's scores.

Please note the changes, as in the last season, the yield can only be used when the 'yielder' get a higher score than the 'yieldee' in the same episode the 'yielder' wants to use the yield, but now 'yielder' must have higher score than 'yieldee' in the episode before, for 'yielder' to use yield in next episode.

Boost

Same as yield. Except you will be increasing the score by 10% for that episode. It can only be used on another team, not on your own team.

Alliance Maker

You can go for an alliance maker, which is to combine scores with another team, and take the average of both teams' scores. Both teams will then share that average for that episode.

Like, Team A and Team B go for an alliance maker, and Team A got 50 points, while Team B got 150 points. Both teams will get 100 points for that leg.

In the case, in which after the alliance maker is used, both teams' score is ranked last, the team in the alliance with the lowest score will be eliminated, as it caused the alliance to sink.

Both teams must pm me to use this option, and state who is the initiator.

Alliance Breaker

Think someone is forming an alliance, so break them up. You can use this option to prevent someone from forming an alliance.

All features, except for the alliance breaker, can be used once throughout the race.

For the alliance maker, if Team A pm me to use the alliance maker with Team B, and states it is the intiator, it cannot use an alliance maker in future legs of the race. Team B, however, can use it in future legs, but not with Team A anymore, but with other teams.

For the alliance breaker, you can use it for every leg, but you cannot target a team more than once throughout the race. And if you have successfully broken an alliance, you cannot use it anymore. For example, you target Team A for episode 11. So Team A cannot form an alliance with anyone.

If Team A did send in an alliance maker, you are considered as successful. So you cannot send in future alliance breaker requests.

If Team A did not send in, you can only send in future alliance breaker requests for other teams.

All teams are to tell me your special relationship, and your team names. Suggestions for more features or modification to existing features are welcome too!

My picks..teams and thoughts follow just about everyone else's. Wavering on the last one...Enron..chose "Someone tells a good one," cause I have heard a few knee slappers..just can't remember them is all.  ^/^

Can just hear someone say "Didnt team Romber sit on the now defunct Enromber Board?" (is why I'm not a paid comic). Alluding to Romber being called EnD-Romber team for the rest of the race....or some such silliness.  c/*

Yea I'll go with 'someone tells a good one.'

enjoy the games folks.....

texan, shanghilill is looking for a partner, hint, hint.

those rules have really been updated! yikes, don't want to use the yield but the alliance might be fun? bet the breaker gets sent in regularly.

team names, hmm, maybe whine and cheese? chocolate puddin' this time? nah, you're right, cinnamon puddin' still works. i'm not feeling especially creative today either. suggestions from the other creative folks here?

How to Explain Enron to your children.
Feudalism - You have two cows. Your lord takes some of the milk.

Fascism - You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take care of them, and sells you the milk.

Communism - You have two cows. Your neighbors help take care of them and you share the milk.

Totalitarianism - You have two cows. The government takes them both and denies they ever existed and drafts you into the army. Milk is banned.

Capitalism - You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income.

ENRON Venture Capitalism - You have two cows. You sell three of them to your publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt~equity swap with an associated general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax exemption for five cows. The milk rights of the six cows are transferred, via an intermediary, to a Cayman Islands company secretly owned by the majority shareholder, who sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company. The annual report says the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more.

Mayhap I'll post this one..what we laugh at here in the North East isn't so much of a hooter in the Midwest oron the West Coast..so you're right any joke can be a crapshoot..but Enron is probably the crapshooti-est unhooti-est.
