I agree that relationships and challenges are accomplishments, but the part where they are similar is that no one person has total control over all of those factors. Challenges are decided by the producers. Relationships are based on luck as well as skill. Twists are similar, because it changes the current situation. What it does is change the current advantages and disadvantages, and that is what "gives one side an advantage". From the start of the game though somebody has an advantage and others don't, and that isn't decided all by ability I see what you're saying, but I mean, there's an element of luck to doing well in business, but that does not make it equivalent to winning the lottery. I know, but twists aren't winning the lottery though. They rearrange pre-existing events and then skill and parts of the old situation determines the new one

That would have been exclusable to cut her loose down the road! 2) Is Bob an atheist?

They rearrange pre-existing events and then skill and parts of the old situation determines the new one It's not that simple. They "rearrange pre-existing events" by neutralizing the hard work of the effective and giving a free pass to the inept. The only possible reward they could have would be to people who are already failing in some capacity. If someone is thriving in the game they don't need a twist. Best case scenario the twist doesn't hurt them. They only benefit the "weak" (whether that weakness be a social, physical or mental). And while I do think the occasional twist is exciting and I do agree that an already successful player overcoming a twist is impressive, if they're used too often the game fundamentals become entirely meaningless. Like last season.

He was robbed! I don't value my David Cook autograph whatsoever haha.. Okay, for this reason alone, Charlie <3. First you love Amanda, then you love Archie... you've already outranked Eliza in my mind =) You should get his album too to support him ;)

And while I do think the occasional twist is exciting and I do agree that an already successful player overcoming a twist is impressive, if they're used too often the game fundamentals become entirely meaningless. Like last season. I'll add my 2 cents. It's not always hard work that gives people the advantage. Sometimes they just have better challengers or the other team has a lot of bad apples. As unfair as twists can be, so is the whole game from the start. So it's not as simple as twists always favoring the weak. Sometimes it actually helps the strong but disadvantaged. A twist sometimes acts as a reset button. It's sort of like restarting the game (not completely of course). Each new start of the game is unfair in some way and that is unavoidable, but a twist isn't any more unfair than the original start. It does give more opportunities for good strategic players who had a weak start due to bad luck to use their abilities. Can you explain what you mean by "game fundamentals become entirely meaningless"? Actually Gabon is a good example of strategic players able to use their abilities despite poor initial luck which is very much in the spirit of the game and part of the fundamentals

Spillman said that "it actually bothers me that I get that call. Every cast member will call with someone else they want to do it with-from every season it happens. My phone rings off the hook with past cast members with their ideas about who they want to do Race with." That's bad news for Survivor Gabon cast members Charlie and Marcus, who have talked about doing the show in their post-eviction interviews. Marcus told me, "it is possible for gay people and straight people to have friendships. … I would love to go on Amazing Race and prove that once again." "I don't want to say never, but I think, again, who cares about that relationship? I mean, so what? They're friends, they met on Survivor; where's that going? Maybe it's gone somewhere; I don't know," Spillman said. "It's a relationship show. That's what makes Amazing Race so great; it's the soap opera of what's going to happen. If Charlie and Marcus did Amazing Race, why would we care unless they're a couple?"

So awesome Survivor women like Ami Cusack and Parvati originally were rejected for TAR, and instead they cast weak or boring or unlikeable females because they are part of a troubled hetero pair.

Apart from Corrine being gloriously uberbitchy, there was nothing on the show she did that suggested that she was as brain-damaged as Ann Coulter. Corrine = best Onion ever.
