TOP 5: London and Maddie (kishuu) chooses to submit themselves
to luck than count the coins
MTAR1 Leg 9 - Kyoto, Japan So Leg 9's Roadblock was to choose one of 26 bowls filled with coins, dropping them into 40 monks consecutively over a bridge until the last coin lands in one of six monks that has a prayer bead, which they will receive before running to the pit stop. Teams had the option of counting the coins in a bowl for 3 updates or submit themselves to lady luck. With the six teams doing the roadblock (as Lydia and Phil almost got Dennis and Andrew'ed at the Fast Forward - but came first), kishuu was the first to initiate the "submitting themselves to the will of lady luck" while others counted to be sure. It is dumb because you will be wasting time and to some extent money if you kept on doing such, considering that the last team, even though Mark and Michael-ed, were considerably near with the pack (It's just funny that dapa didn't know how the roadblock should run as well). Well, kishuu has been extremely lucky with the said bowl, the monk and all, earning her a top three finish, with her luck going until the Taipei detour, and killed her chances of being in the Final 5 because of a children's baseball game Roadblock. NEXT UPDATE: PENALTIES PENALTIES PENALTIES! |

I don't see how it was dumb cause I could've done the same thing Suya did and Dapa was so far behind that it didn't matter. Plus, I got lucky and
it propelled me from 6th to 3rd.
btw, it's kinda London's fault only since it was a roadblock. Plus, the next leg I screwed up the roadblock not detour lol (cause I aced the detour lolol). |

Oh yeah, I <3 all the teams so much, but what I'm criticizing are the moves.

Probably, one of that is me , not taking the Bus through the speedbump and Intersection.(which only me and ADC can afford as it will
cost 20000)
Had I done that, I could still be 1 update ahead of Wuming and could have intersected with ADC. Oh wellz, fuck my Airport skills for not getting the best plane |

ME FTW >_>

I think my intersection-screwage will be mentioned since I survived just by a twist like that. If there was no intersection in the first place I would've
been out. Pretty ironic to what happened in ATTAR 5.

I chatted with Moo after the leg and he said that proxies weren't allowed anymore.

TOP 4: PENALTIES GALORE!
Leg 3: Naples, Italy Leg 11: Singapore Seriously, this happens in every race, real or virtual. People need to read the clues properly more often... In the two of thirteen legs I made, the two had people suffering penalties - around 3 - 4 players perhaps. Good thing is that neither of them got eliminated on the leg they got penalties... but were put into a highly significant disadvantage... I'll start off with Leg 3. Clearly, I said to take a Taxi from Rheims to Paris International Airport, while people opted to be cheap, to take a bus or even rails... so there you go, the trailing pack still became trailing as they tend to have less money, mainly because they wanted to save. And Leg 11 - when I told to walk, ADC and Suya may have used the taxi for strategic purposes, (I'll talk about that later...) and well, Nimber probably just followed the bandwagon... so it's kinda lesser evil of the two... AND... Special mention goes to dapa... Who already knew in Leg 3 that he was... a) GETTING A PENALTY b) ALMOST DEAD LAST c) TIMED CHECK-INS WERE CONSIDERED And still WALKED TO PIT STOP... Garnering an almost one hour behind the first team leaving for the 4th leg departure. but I'll deal with that later in a higher rank. NEXT RANK: YOU KNOW IT'S A RACE... WHY HELP EACH OTHER IN GIVING OUT PENNIES! |

Dapa asked me =/ haha.
Bentong & Booba appearing <3 Whether or not I give money, Dapa will still beat me in a post-race. and there aren't any chance of me to get ahead as the intersection hadn't broken after the RB, had the intersection broken after RB, I won't give Dapa 131 JPY so I could gain a 2-update lead as I'll take the 3U transport, and he'll take the 5U as he don't have enough =o |

The thing is because my fucking internet screwed me up in leg 2 and you had to remove all my money instead of forcing me to take the most expensive transport.
I was fucking cheap because I will need the money later on and that the EUR can be a major bitch.
If I wasn't cheap there then my future legs would've been in jeopardy. Actually my whole race was in jeopardy because of the money issue (They were around 40USD richer ffs)... I don't wanna discuss this anymore as well, I've done enough bitching in the thread.

Atleast Dapa, you caught up on Leg 4 :D and get the 7th you always get =o

Yeah pretty much I was such a bitch after legs 2 and 3 but I was pretty humbled after leg 4. I like to push my luck in airports as well.
