the other day, i was thinking "sigh. my fave team didn't win again. i haven't had a fave team win since season 3."

then i realized: in 4 out of 8 seasons, my over-all faves finished third!

TAR2 - blake/paige - THIRD
TAR5 - brandon/nicole - THIRD
TAR7 - ron/kelly - THIRD
TAR8 - weavers - THIRD

and my TAR6 finale pick adam/rebecca finished THIRD also.

i hope my TAR9 fave will win this time!

how about you? do you have a TAR curse?

yeah, about that. it's more like a second-place blessing to me. (peace, genius!)

here are my least favorite teams per season:
TAR1 - team guido - third
TAR2 - tara/wil - SECOND
TAR3 - teri/ian - SECOND
TAR4 - millie/chuck - fifth
TAR5 - colin/christie - SECOND
TAR6 - jonathan/victoria - sixth
TAR7 - romber - SECOND
TAR8 - linzes - first

(also, of the TAR6 final three, kris/jon, who placed SECOND was my SECOND least fave Grin

)

so a lot of times, even though my fave was third, i'll still be happy because my least fave didn't win.

except this season.

Oh...

TAR 3 Teri and Ian was my least favourtie but Flo and Zach won...
TAR 4 Reichen and Chip was my least favourite while Kelly and Jon was my favourite...
TAR 5 Colin and Christie was my least favourite and Chip and Kim won...
TAR 6 Freddy and Kendra was my least favourite while Kris and Jon was my favourite...
TAR 7 Romber was my least favourite *and will still be* while Uchenna and Joyce won...
TAR 8 Linz was my least favourite and Bransen was my favourite *and they are so close to winning*

Hence, the seasons in which my favourite didn't win, they came in 2nd and my least favourite won... *sighs*

Uhm. Please explain? I thought K/J > F/K.

No. None of my TAR faves won. The best placer so far was Romber in TAR7. The most horrible elimination were Lena and Kristy's. Cry

* Charla/Mirna and the Gaghans both placed 6th
* The Gaghans and Lena/Kristy were both eliminated by a "needle in a haystack" Roadblock.

Hmmmmm... the last task Millie/Chuck, Charla/Mirna, Lena/Kristy and the Gaghans did before getting eliminated was a Roadblock.

Let's see, of my favorite TAR teams...

3 have finished 6th (Charla/Mirna, Brian/Greg, Gaghans)
1 has finished 5th (Lori/Bolo)
2 have finished 4th (Kevin/Drew, Jon/Al)

Now let's see of my LEAST favorite teams.

3 have finished 2nd (Kelly/Jon, Colin/Christie, Rob/Amber)
2 have finished 3rd (Team Guido, The Weavers)
1 has finished 6th (Jonathan/Victoria)

So in most cases, my least favorite team make it farther than my favorite teams. Roll Eyes

Actually from what i've observed... *if you bother checking the leaderboard from TAR 1 to TAR 8*, the teams that comes in top 5 normally came in first before (or a few times)

It's easy to spot the pattern =)

Anyway Genius, i like Kelly and Jon and Kris and Jon.

Kris and Jon will always pawn Freddy and Kendra! Half of America *who watch TAR* were hoping K/J will win TAR 6 at that time if i'm not wrong Roll Eyes
