I can't get mad at Kynt because his reasoning was fairly solid, but it still breaks my heart that the meathead and the screechowl beat them.

well from the point of view of Kynt and Vyxsin - Nate and Jenn were AHEAD of them. why would you U-Turn a team that you SAW pass you?

Straight from CBS.com:
""As TK, Nick, and Ron all loaded the large metal gas canisters and pedaled off the very heavy load, dating Goths Kynt & Vyxsin arrived at Kabutar Khana with a U-turn burning a hole in their pockets. Having only seen Nate & Jen, who left the Detour before them, the Goths were unsure of where any of the other Teams were. Logically and incorrectly assuming that Nate & Jen still held a lead over them, Kynt & Vyxsin opted to U-turn the usually slow Nick & Don who in fact were well ahead of them."" |

Bummer that they're out. Too bad they had to do the speed bump or whatever. I miss the days of the non-elimination being consequence free.

I thought I heard Vyxsin suggesting that they Yield Nate/Jen too. If only they had done it... or if Kynt had performed better at the Roadblock. Ugh, what a
depressing episode. What a terrible week for Amazing Race in general - this and the latest episode of TAR:Asia have each featured my most hated team coming
first and my favourite team getting eliminated.
Well, now I suppose Nick/Don become my favourites, but I won't be holding out much hope of them winning. Oh well, Kynt/Vyxsin for TAR: Half-ASS! And for Sucks posting! (I bet they're lurking...) |

I really liked these guys. They get to run the rest of the race as decoys, right?

Damn. These two are right up there with Charla/Mirna as my fave teams ever. At least it was their own faulty decision that took them out and not some other BS
or luck type of task. I hope we see them again on something.
I'll always remember and appreciate their kindness and respect towards the people in the countries they are visiting, especially to the people helping with the tasks. Things like "Thank you and please enjoy your fruit and bread" or "Thank you for letting me build with you." among many others. These seem like small things, but to remember to say them during the heat of the race is quite something, that means it's not an unnatural, unusual or insincere thing for them to say. Especially Kynt, he was always so, so kind. At the very least, they win the kindest and most respectful to locals award. So nice to see that instead of the "ugly americans" type of thing that we see so much of on this race. Congratulations to them for that! Again, I really hope this isn't the last we see of them. |

Why do you hate them, CSC?

I don't really hate them, I just think they deserved to be philiminated for their massive stupidity.

I wish all people were philiminated for their massive stupidity... Nate and Jen would have been gone legs ago.

They weren't massively stupid. EVERYONE in the Amazing Race will make a mistake and get eliminated except for one team.

I love this team and will miss them greatly. The thing that pisses me off the most is this whole UTurn-gate debacle. At least for the yield there was a clear
indication of who was behind you and who wasn't. What's the point of having a twist like this if it doesn't even work? At least production seems
to have gotten rid of that horrible intersection twist...thought I don't want to speak too soon.
