| Welcome to The Amazing Race 4 contest. I am very happy to be running it once again, with the Mayor providing a free software prize to the randomly selected winner at the end of the season. The rules for participating are as follows: 1. Any registered DODer may participate and win prizes. It only takes 1 point to be eligible for the final software prize. 2. Each week you will be asked to answer 4-6 prediction questions about the show, and e-mail me your answers at: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] by the deadline, which is generally 4 AM EST on the day the show airs. Each question will have a value of 1 point, unless I indicate otherwise. These questions will start after we have all seen the first show. Please clearly label your e-mail with the subject: Amazing Race Weekly Questions. 3. You are asked to use only the show and the cbs site:[Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] to help you guess. Please do not share spoiler information on any contest related thread. We have only the honor system here, but we all hope you are all willing and able to play fair. 4. In addition to the weekly questions, you are eligible to win bonus points (most weeks you will be eligible for only 1 point/person) by being the first person to answer a NUMBERED bonus questions correctly. Numbered bonus questions will all appear on the [important] bonus thread. You must answer the questions on the thread itself. (Do not e-mail me the answers) 5. There will be mini-contests from time to time, labeled as lettered bonus questions. Each mini-contest has a separate scoring and a small prize, which I am happy to donate. (The first mini-contest is already posted. It is Bonus A. Be sure and check it out as it starts immediately) Each lettered Bonus question will appear on its own thread. E-mail me your answers to lettered bonus questions, and I will post all the guesses right before the show airs. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] 6. Discussion of the contests and the show are encouraged. They make it alot more fun. Please post all your thoughts about the show and the contests on the [important] Discussions thread. 7. Please DO NOT post any comments on this thread. Every week the new weekly questions will appear here, as well as the updated scoring results. 8. If you are interested in participating in an Optional game, for which you must donate a small prize ($5 value) please indicate that you would like to do so when you submit your guesses for the first set of weekly questions. We had 9 participants in the Survivor Optional game, and 3 of them will end up with prizes, 2 based on their total scores, and 1 by random drawing. 9. All deadlines are firm. No exceptions. That is a good reason to get your guesses in early each week. 10. I will try to send an e-mail to each of you when the questions have been posted for the week, and a reminder e-mail when the deadline is drawing close. I also generally acknowledge receiving your guesses with a brief reply e-mail. 11. I do make errors from time to time in the scoring. If you see one please e-mail me, [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] I keep records and would be happy to check and correct any mistakes. 12. If you are unable to send your guesses, and I have a set of answers from the previous week that are applicable to the questions, I will use them. 13. All of the rules are subject to change. Once in a while I add something new or decide something is not working. __________________ Check out these [Only registered and activated users can see links.

| Chippers - can you explain the optional game more? 9 gc's were donated by the players and three won? Is this for overall pts earned during the season? Just not sure I "get it". Jennifer =)

| Happy to explain the optional game: 9 people participated and 3 of them became winners The 3 winners did not have to contribute anything because they were the winners. The 3 winners were chosen: the one with the most points, the one with the second highest total points, and a randomly selected winner from among the rest The 6 gift certificates were distributed: 3 to winner 2 to 2nd place and 1 to random selected winner for a total of 6 donated and distributed gift certificates.

| Questions for Episode 2 of Amazing Race: Deadline will be 4 AM EST on Thursday, June 5: 1. Which team will finish first in Episode 2? 2. Which team will finish last in Episode 2? (not necessary to be eliminated) 3. Which team will use the fast forward? (you may guess "no one" and score a point if no one uses it) For questions 4 and 5 you will need to get the order of finish from episode 1 from the CBS site. We will use the order listed there under leg 1, even though the first 3 teams were virtually tied at the end of Episode 1(in other words Amanda and Chris will be listed as first; Chuck and Millie,2nd; and Steve and Josh, 3rd): [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] 4. Which team will improve their finish order the most from Episode 1 to Episode 2? 5. Which team will fall back the most from their finish in Episode 1 to Episode 2? 6. Predict 1 team you think is safe from elimination. If your team is eliminated you lose 1 point. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] All the questions are worth 1 point, except for #2 (who will be eliminated/last) For #2 you get 3 points if you are correct this week. PLEASE MAKE ALL COMMENTS FROM THIS TIME FORWARD- ON THE COMMENT THREAD. PLEASE LEAVE THIS THREAD FOR MY WEEKLY QUESTIONS AND SCORE UPDATES ONLY. __________________ [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]
