AMAZING RACE 3: The Rules of Our Game

[chippers21]

Amazing Race 3 starts on Wednesday, Oct 2. You can find out all about the 12 new teams at: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]
Anyone who is registered at DOD may enter the contest at any time while the show airs, right up to midnight (EST) of the night before the last show. 1 point scored makes you eligible for the $25 gift certificate the Mayor has graciously offered us.

The contest will have a very different twist this time around. Anyone who enters will be given only one chance to choose the ultimate winning team. If you choose your one pick for ultimate winner by midnight (EST) of OCTOBER 15, you will be eligible to get 25 points at the end of the game if your pick wins. I call this the high risk selection pool. If you feel less confident, but think you have a good choice, make your choice by midnight of OCTOBER 29 to be eligilble for 15 points. Any "chickens" out there may wait until midnight NOVEMBER 27 to make an ultimate winner selection, for which they will win 5 points if their choice comes in first.
In summary: choose your 1 pick for ulitmate winner by:
Midnight, Oct 15/ if your pick wins you get 25 points
Midnight, Oct 29/ your pick wins/ you get 15 points
Midnight, Nov. 26 / your pick wins / 5 points added to your total.

Don't quit if your ultimate winner pick is eliminated. You can still win lots of points by entering weekly.

Every week you can make points toward your total by answering 3 questions:
#1 will always be: Which team will come in first this week?
#2 will always be: Which team will come in last this week? (It does not matter if they are eliminated or not)
#3 will vary and will usually be based on what happened on the show in the previous episode

Scoring will be 3 points for each correct answer.

All entries for each week must have an e-mail posting time before midnight EST of the night before each episode. All entries must have a subject of Amazing Race 3 to avoid my "fast finger" that deletes junk e-mails. All e-mails should be sent to [Only registered and activated users can see links.

I will not be posting any of the ultimate winner picks here at this sight until after each deadline has passed. By this I mean I will keep a record of, and post all the ultimate winner picks on Wednesdays October 16 and 30 and on Wednesday, November 28th. I will e-mail you a quick response when I receive your ULTIMATE WINNER choice just so you will know I have received and recorded it.
Sometime between 10 AM and 7 PM each Wednesday I will post everyones picks for questions 1,2, and 3 for that episode.

The rules I have posted here may be changed, with adequate notice, if any of them prove impossible to use, or any strange twists occur on the show that make a new twist here a good idea.

I wish to play the game as well. I am not eligible to answer question 3 but I will be guessing on 1 and 2 along with you. I will be studying the teams and picking my ultimate winner this week.

Any questions about rules, scoring, your picks, or who is going to win the World Series may be sent to me at: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]
(Must have subject line Amazing Race 3)
