Smiley's final team going out.
|
|||
oh ehm gee |
|||
tbh a), I seriously thought both would be out by, like, 70 so yay! tbh b), the Intersected Speed Bump was tres gay, but super!lightning was even gayer. If only I had paired up with Marvin/Harry...then I probably would've been out in Midway or Lost. And...yeah. It took a while to really warm up (I think Algeria?) but yeah, I was on it I think. My first authentic virtual race, and I couldn't be happier (though I happened to do another one of these on another board and won a good 80 percent of the legs - but it kind of sucked). |

Algeria was a good leg for Ax & Tobias. Kind of boring from a leg perspective, I personally thought, but good for characters.

Two things; smiley's last team went out looooong ago in the form of Brooke & Ashanti. And Algeria was the RPS roadblock one, which you did kind of get
majorly held up at. But you were guaranteed 6th since Nick & Max hadn't shown up.
46: Joey & Don - Funkey 01 Season: Wan & Christian's Season Two Placing: 5th/10th - A team that I yo-yoed on quite a bit. They lacked the awesomeness of Marvin & Harry's avi's and the kind of awesomeness of the interaction they had with the girls; on the other hand, they were very, very funny at times. Plus, they were the only team who have ever threatened Wan and actually...well, got away with it. And they were given new lives as Indian cab drivers too :). But they're 47th because despite all this, there's not one major moment for me that makes them stand out. Oh, and if they had turned up in Bhutan they'd probably have been awesome, 'cos let's face it, they would have broken the rules sooooo badly. 45: Koda & Namie - NickF227 Season: Avant Tai, Season Four Placing: 3rd/9th - The ATTAR4 teams are dropping like flies. Will this trend stop? *looks down*...no. Once again for a Nick team, a case of "San & Rose wuz betta!", and the fact is that I'm a slut for Ayumi Hamasaki, so any Asian contender is immediately HATED upon by me. The differential here is that Koda & Namie were better than the other faux-S&R teams because they were kind of like...so Asian they were good. And there was less of a batshit-crazyness about them, but...yeh. And now, we say goodbye to a team that I kind of <3 and wish I could put higher on this list, but...I physically cannot allow myself to put them higher, for the same reason I love them. 44: Josef & Robi - pinoyako Season: Avant Tai, Season Four Placing: 5th/9th - Managing to essentially bankrupt themselves by Leg Two (especially by taking a taxi to get 3rd!?) = <3 Searching for an area in Leg Two, despite the answer having already being posted = <3<3 Being possessed by EINSTEIN!? = <3<3<3 Taking the FF in Leg Four and winning by like, two updates? = <3<3<3<3 They were, to put it nicely, the closest we've ever had to a Kami/Karli or Kelly/Christy. And they were lovable, and that's just a handful of the awesome stuff they did. But...they were so bad, they can't be any higher. But I <3 them, I really do. A set of former racers are out in the next trio.

OMG, this leaves the original team, who weren't batshit until the leg before Iraq, and San and Rose.
This is depressing, I should go take that survey and rank some teams. Whoo. |

oh ehm gee |

Zach/Scarlet? What with the whole 'gender reassignment surgery' thing that seemed to disappear before leg 1 (and then m.orph into a semi-incestuous
relationship, IIRC)?

Zach & Scarlet weren't Lach and Gabe, that was a thing they tried to put on if I remember.

Fixed that, Nick, but there's still someone missing from the list, because I only count 43 teams.

There hasn't been a mix up about the number of times Ariel & Brodie competed, has there?
ETA: Nah... but who's missing then? |

Yeah, Thinga. That was what I was thinking too. yzysg's Ariel & Brodie = inactive first boot fuckers and should have been down like # 90s-100s. So Kat didn't really rank A&B two times, but just an error of counting teams, I suppose? |
