The Amazing Mega Race - LEG 2 UP!!!
« on: Feb 17^th, 2007, 10:09pm »

In The Mega Amazing Race, members of the board will pair up in teams of two in a fantasy Amazing race Game. The two members will need to come up with the right combination of brains and brawn to win the 1,000,000 million dollar prize at the finish line of The Mega Amazing Race! Sign-Ups are below. Please discuss who you are working with BEFORE you put your name on the list. Thanks.

Types of Clues will include:

Route Information: Route Info clues instruct the teams where to go next. The clue usually only provides the name of the team's next destination; it is up to the teams to figure out how to get there. However, the clue may make specifications about how the teams have to travel. For example, the very first clue of the race specifies which flights teams may take. In addition, teams may be required to take public transportation, drive a marked car or other vehicle, or walk, according to the clue's instructions. The Route Info clues can instruct teams to go to several types of locations, including a specific location in another city or country, another location within the team's present city, the Pit Stop of the leg, and the Finish Line of the race.

Detour: A Detour is a choice between two tasks, each has its own pros and cons. Teams must successfully complete one of the tasks described on the clue in order to receive their next clue. One task is typically an easier option that takes more time to complete, while the other is usually a difficult or frightening option that can be finished quickly. There might be a detour on every leg.

Roadblock: A Roadblock is a task which only one team member may perform. Often, a team may figure out the specific task by observing their surroundings, using common sense, or even seeing other teams already performing the Roadblock task. They then must decide which team member would be best suited to complete it. Once a choice has been made, the teammates cannot switch roles. Some legs might not have a roadblock.

Fast Forward: The Fast Forward allows the team that receives it to skip all remaining tasks on that leg of the race and proceed directly to the Pit Stop. To receive the Fast Forward, the team must be the first team to perform and complete the task described on the Fast Forward clue. The clue is found along with a regular clue at one of the Route Markers. Only one team may use each Fast Forward. There will be four fast forwards on the race.

Yield: The Yield allows any one team to force another team to stop racing for a predetermined amount of time. To Yield an opponent, a team places the picture of the team they wish to yield onto the Yield sign (found near one of the Route Markers). When the yielded team arrives at the Yield, they must turn over an hourglass found on the Yield sign and wait for all the sand to drain before continuing. There will be two yields throughout the race.

Intersection: An intersection is a task where two teams will be forced to work together. There will be two intersections during the race.

I thought the same thing before you said that! :laff:

I'm sorry but it's to overwhelming now to be competing in games. I'd rather not be in any now but somehow I get tied into these things!

But I have set a retirement date on these games. I shall win my last game! If I don't then I might come back and keep doing it until I do. Because well...I have never won one of these games yet but I'm always the dominate one or at least one of the better players winning a chunk of the legs but always coming up short. lol
