Wow, the new challenges suit me more and more, dammit jdog
For example I can recognize some Japanese characters, I've been to Tokyo, and that block game is just long like pacman, I quit at 15000 it got too boring

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!

The penalty is going to hurt us, but our score was still okay I think.

Shire Stallions seem to be the king of Flash games.
And it turns out be 2nd game attempt of ~25,000 would have been good enough for 2nd place anyway. Shame I then wasted more time trying to get the hang of that frustrating game, and not getting too much further!
Nice to see that having no penalty did gain us a position.

Leg #6: Toyko
Transportation - Bus, Bullet Train, or Taxi
Using the internet find the cheapest way to Mt. Fuji
by using either a bus, bullet train, or taxi to get there.
The date of departure doesn't matter for this Route Info.
However, the cost to get from Toyko to Mt. Fuji
will be taken out of your bank account.
If you spend over your bank account you incur a 60 minute penalty
and you will be left with nothing in your bank.
The game clock is running until 1 team member submits
a screenshot of their team's transportation with the cost by PM.
Remember there are two of you on a team so you need 2 tickets.
If I don't PM you back after submitted that means your all set.
Once completed this concludes Game Day 2 of the 6th Leg.
A brief overview of where your team stands on time will be posted
before I send out the Detour challenges tomorrow.
The Detour selection will be sent out later today.

So time to travel doesn't matter? If it takes 12 days that won't hurt?

Correct, although you have to use one of the 3 transportations listed to do so.

Welcome to Mt. Fuji. Time to make your way to the top to reach the mat.
For this Detour you have been a challenge to test your knowledge.
Science involves pinpoint decision making skills to complete this game.
You have to complete the 10 levels in under 125 total moves.
Labyrinth Puzzle
PM me back with a screenshot of your result.
You can replay if needed although game clock is running.

Welcome to Mt. Fuji. Time to make your way to the top to reach the mat.
For this Detour you have been a challenge to test your knowledge.
Math involves number crunching skills to complete this puzzle.
(Each number 1 through 9 is to be used once).
PM me back with a screenshot of your result.
Time penalties will occur for the following:
1. Incorrect. (+120 Minutes)
Before people start saying Math was way easier, average time of completion:
Math - 17.4 Minutes / Science - 25 Minutes
So a little bit more time consuming, but that's the Amazing Race.

Great that the average was 17 minutes, it took way less to me
EDIT: Good to win the leg! I was waiting for this, it also looks like that we're getting better and better every leg! That's great!
Ooh, and the Cereal Killers are worth a laugh

After a brutal last leg in Japan this one was a little more relaxed.
Storming past everyone at the Road Block they take 1st place
and get $50 added to their bank account.
An hour and half later before the next team arrives.
A few hours later three teams come running towards the mat.
That leaves two team left, here comes one of them now...
They started the leg off slow and couldn't catch back up.
Spoiler
Bikex and Bjartne you are the last team to arrive.
I'm sorry to tell you but... you have to keep racing.
This is a non-elimination leg and you have been saved once again.
You will have to face a Speed Bump in this next leg.
The 6th leg is finished.
Complete results below. Rest up and see'ya tomorrow.

Really?
Alakagom and me missed the non elimination leg by one after a desastrous journey.
How much do Bjartne and Bikex pay you?

Yep, I planned out all the non-eliminations legs would go when choosing the destinations before I started so I'm not picking favourites either.
The Cereal Killers are just really lucky I guess.
