Yes, there was a recent-ish season (32 I think) where 5 teams colluded basically the entire race. It was awful

Demon_Corsair posted:It’s wild that amber could just walk the teams through the puzzle. But I guess in a competition, there probably aren’t many rules against helping each other. Hard to really come up with a rule against it. How could talking to another team be against the rules. It happens in some way in just about every challenge, with teams asking for directions to certain tasks in them. In reality, it's a course that has multiple variations, would have prevented the teamwork entirely having a different puzzle / race course for each driver / car.

I think in a challenge like that where everyone is at a station it would be pretty easy to say you're not allowed to enter another player's station, which would be fairly easy to set rules and boundaries for. You could also disallow talking to people when they're in their station but that gets a little harder to litigate and idk what their resources are.

They could also say that once you complete a challenge you must leave the area. If your teammate can't help you, it should be pretty easy to say another team can't help you, either?

It seems some of the things they did last season which was filmed after this season was a response to this season, such as the forced public uturn votes.

They have such a healthy relationship, it's bonkers. Just completely open with one another and then they work it out while running a marathon race in a Spanish speaking country. 0 filter. They are running the race like they are on the job as nurses. It rules. Edit: Lots of good relationships on this season honestly. Rod constantly bigging up Leticia with cheers like "yeah baby that's my wife look at her go!!"

Most interesting thing from the last one to me was that it seemed like most of the people who never welded before did a lot better because they had to actually pay attention to the instruction. Some sort of life lesson there that I refuse to learn.

I still don’t understand what the firefighters were even doing. Was their strategy to just drive aimlessly until they found the right plaza? They didn’t seem to ask anybody until they ended up in a restricted stockyard and even then the guys just said “no, this isn’t a plaza”

I think the difference between the firefighters and the mom and son really emphasizes how much navigation matters

So when are the firefighters divorcing their husbands and marrying each other Why did they think a plaza would be among shipping containers and whatnot? They kept saying "it should be right here", but I must have missed whatever made them think that? CJacobs posted:They have such a healthy relationship, it's bonkers.

It rules. ... Are we watching the same show? He's a gaslighting rear end in a top hat who is constantly putting her down in the tone of voice men use when they think they are clearly smarter than the silly womenfolk. "I hope you learn from this experience, what you're doing to us as a team" is not something someone says when in a healthy relationship, nor is "you're making this so hard... and you're not trying to be any better". The words he chooses and the way he constantly says "you" are the opposite of what someone should say when trying to de-escalate or be understanding. "Her thoughts are saying, you know, 'you're not good enough'" Gee I wonder why she thinks that.

Yeah, I think Amber has a lot more emotional intelligence than Vinny. She is able to pick any honesty out of his immature venting quite well. I don't disagree that it'd be better if he cut out the accusatory junk. Edit: I do think he would respond to being asked to be more constructive with his criticism with more whinging though LOL.

this has to be the most unlikely collection of finalists the series has had in quite some time, i dont think any of these teams except maybe ricky and cesar make it out of the first couple episodes in a different season. sad to see mom and son lose, they were def one of the brighter spots in the season, esp due to their loss mostly being due to getting penalized for losing production

Production actually took responsibility for the mom and son. In the exit interview it was revealed their camera crew never showed back up although they knew where to go. Production had to get out an entirely new crew for them. I can understand getting lost on a roundabout but the crew would know where they're supposed to go. Mom and son took the loss in great stride but this is one of those things that I feel like should be a mulligan. Hopefully they return in another season

That was such a bummer way for a team to go out. I really wish they had done something about it. Rod just pushing that car out of the mud was pretty badass.

They need to bring the mom and son back for another season, they were completely screwed over by that. I also thought it was funny that production obviously planned on them having beautiful weather that day and imagined everyone just happily driving around with the tops down on their cars. Then a torrential downpour which seemed to really throw everybody off.
