TAR Fantasy Game 5

The TAR Fantasy Game is on for a fifth season.

In this race, you will be racing against others on the board. The race will be consisted of fifteen players. However unlike other races, your team will be composed of yourself (username) and one previous racer (not a team) in The Amazing Race (LIMITED TO TAR 1-12). For example your team will be like (Redwings8831 and Chris). The route for this race is currently being created and will feature locations never seen by the Amazing Race. Some changes have been made from the last game, and those will be announced at a later time.

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 three 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 one intersection during the race.

U-Turn: An U-Turn allows one team to force another team to go back and complete the other detour. Hence, teams who are U-Turned will have to complete both detour tasks before continuing on with the race. There will be two U-Turn's in the race.

Speedbump: A speedbump is an extra task for the team who arrives last on the previous leg but are still in the race because it was a non-elimination leg. There will be three speedbump's in the race.

TAR Fantasy Game 5 Rules and Scoring

Tasks will include:

Signups: These might include something like signing up for a flight or at a route marker. You will do all of your sign ups on the thread. I will tell you when you need to sign up for a task.

Team Tasks: These will occur when you have to complete a task such as finding information on line, playing a game, etc. For these types of tasks, you will need to PM me your information. These will occur for detour, roadblocks and other situations.

Each task will have a specific point value. REMEMBER: POINTS ARE BAD!! THE MORE POINTS YOU HAVE, THE WORSE YOU DID FOR THE TASK. THE FINAL ORDER FOR A LEG WILL BE BASED OFF THESE POINTS.

POINT VALUES:

Signups: You will get 2 points for signing up first, 4 for second etc.

Detour: The detour will have two different types of tasks one you will have to complete. One detour will be easier to complete (thus giving you more points) and one will be harder to complete (thus being fewer points).

Detour: Harder One (+5)

Point Values:
Team 1: +5
Team 2: +8
Team 3: +11
Team 4: +14
Team 5: +17
Team 6: +20
Team 7: +23
Team 8: +26
Team 9: +29
Team 10: +32
Team 11: +35
Team 12: +38
Team 13: +41
Team 14: +44
Team 15: +47

Detour: Easier One (+10)

Point Values:
Team 1: +10
Team 2: +12
Team 3: +14
Team 4: +16
Team 5: +19
Team 6: +20
Team 7: +22
Team 8: +24
Team 9: +26
Team 10: +28
Team 11: +30
Team 12: +32
Team 13: +34
Team 14: +36
Team 15: + 38

Roadblock: This task will be based off of the order of how you complete it.

Team 1: +3
Team 2: +6
Team 3: +9
Team 4: +12
Team 5: +15
Team 6: +18
Team 7: +21
Team 8: +24
Team 9: +27
Team 10: +30
Team 11: +33
Team 12: +36
Team 13: +39
Team 14: +42
Team 15: +45

Fast Forward: There will be three fast forwards on the race. If you complete the fast forward, you will not receive any points for the remainder of the leg (thus you are not guaranteed a first place finish).

Yield: There are two yields on the entire race. Nothing will happen to the team who uses the yield. The team who is yielded will gain 25% of the current points and it will be added to their total for the leg. (For example: Team A has 100 points before the yield, they will receive 25 more, thus giving them 125.)

U-Turn: There are two U-Turns in the race. Nothing will happen to teams who the U-Turn. The team who is U-Turned will gain a certain amount of points based on the extra detour which they have to complete.

Intersection: There is one intersection on the race. At this time, teams will be paired up together to complete one, or a series of tasks. Both teams will receive the same amount of points for these tasks.

Non Elimination: On non elimination legs, teams will be marked for elimination and will have to complete the speedbump. Teams will receive 10% of their current points for completing the speedbump. Then, iff they dont finish in the top three on the next leg, 30% of their points will be added to them, thus giving them a better chance to be eliminated.

Double Eliminations: These are legs when two teams are eliminated. There wil be two of them in the race, and both eliminations will be at the end of the leg.

Points: 20% of your points will carry over to the next leg, so it will give the teams in the front a little advantage for the next leg.
