It's a dash to the finish.
The reward for winning this leg is $50 added to your team's bank.
Here they come, 5 teams battling it out. The winner of the 2nd leg is...
Right on their heels and missing out on 1st place
because of crucial stumble in the Detour challenge.
Just 3 minutes later the next team comes sprinting in.
Shortly after two more teams reach the mat.
A break in the action, it takes 30 minutes for the next team to arrive.
Then another hour till 7th place finishes.
Nervous faces now as they reach the mat.
Three teams are left. Who's next?!?
Close fight going into the Detour not to finish last, who succeeded?
Which means, last place goes to.
Spoiler
Luis Leon Sanchez and NTTHRASH, you are the last team to arrive.
I'm sorry to tell you but... have been eliminated from the race.
Thanks for participating and I hope you had fun playing.
The 2nd leg is finished.
Complete results below. Rest up and see'ya tomorrow.

Only 2 teams got all questions right in the Detour Very close at the front and the Detour made all the difference. You clearly chose the questions well Mre!

Ah, true. But taking that long is almost as bad a penalty as getting a question wrong really.

This detour was not good but everything still close and next time I will have to look more careful obviously.
Thanks for the quick running. |

Just a heads up:
I'm running one more leg (Sunday-Wednesday), then I'm going to have to take 4 days off because of Thanksgiving (Thursday-Sunday). Meaning the 4th leg will start on December 1st.

So this round doesn't matter from now one, right? If so, good.

Well, 7th is an outstanding position, considering that the transportation was an awful performance from my side.

In what, roadblock(Fake Americans) or Detour(me ofc )?
I'm really puzzled how anyone would get 10 mins in roadblock tbh. Really impressive, possibly they've rushed through the test and bought answers from Mre, I'm unsure.
Regarding Detour, it's really not that impressive. Since I chose Chloe Lavelle(which is only a Comeback character) it was easy to prepare.
Beforehand, beside reading through the story, I also took note of every event in the story that involved Chloe
Which gave as a result that I could find the answer to every question within a few secs.

Haha, actually both is really impressive, but now I thought mainly about the Detour since I chose Zooey and thinks that doing those 5 questions in 10 minutes, getting everything correct is either not possible, or you're a freak |

The 10 minute leg I did was at the beginning which was that 50 question quiz.. I found the link before 1 minute had passed since he posted and it took about 8 minutes to do the actual quiz which was quite easy

Not really because ti was American. I did a lot of them wrong, but then you only have to do it over 1 other time cause you know all the right answers they give you.

50 questions in 8 minutes = A question every 0.16 minutes = A question every 9.6 seconds
I'd say that doing that with 100% success is highly unlikely, so they probably spent some cash to balance out the incorrect answers. Probably quite a bit of money considering some of the questions.
Or the Fake Americans are the smartest people known to man... you're call
Or the "cheat" method of 100 questions in 8 minutes = a question ever 4.3 seconds... Fake Americans are the fastest readers known to man

And here's me, having no fucking idea what the roadblock even was
Anyway it's on me for fucking up that detour, should've had it in 18 minutes :/
baseballlover312, 06-03-14 : "Nuke Moscow...Don't worry Russia, we've got plenty of love to go around your cities"
Sarah Palin, 08-03-14 (CPAC, on Russian aggression) : "The only thing that stops a bad guy with a nuke is a good guy with a nuke"
Big thanks to jdog for making this AMAZING userbar!
