Spoiler [+] as such i am not totally cool with having to make adjustments for that fuck up in live races (like having screen caps for evidence) yuku fucked you up. that is part of the game i would have wanted team zebra to win, and it should have been fuckin frustrating for them to lose because of the chip counter, but in the end, there is nothing else that they could do. if this mishap had happened to the gay bros im sure the sucks community would make that lady chip counter an international hero

Races didn't have these before so why have/accept them now? Oh, there is now acceptable evidence that I posted before you but it wouldn't have mattered since Pyrox/Aqua-Girl were eliminated.

They should have made Maria/Tiffany count it... I think they're better than that so-called "chip counter". Final Task is RIG.GED File a lawsuit <3

Faulty equiptment is faulty equiptment anybody who losses due to circustances that arent their fault have a right to bitch. This was the races fuckup not their so GMAFB. My point is, historically every team has had to take the chance that they will receive faulty equipment. I'm not saying they don't have a right to bitch, I'm saying they can't claim they were cheated. By the way, the answer is Bulldog.

Note, before a rule was added, anytime a car malfunctioned they got a time credit.

And Luck is part of the game both good luck and bad luck. To think they did the task perfectly however and then were told they were wrong. It would have been great if they had showed the error during the show otherwise it does look like they covered it. They were pretty gracious at the finish line have to say. It does suck but I don't think they should win. Will be interesting as they read the fine print in their contract.

Is there any way to get the Miss America committee to revoke the crown of this harridan? What a whiny ass titty baby! I disagree because it was someone that was provided by the race. The things that the race provides should be fair. And I bet they would have gotten a time credit if it had been a different episode. Didn't the same thing happen with the beauty queens in the final episode on all stars with faulty equipment? However, they were not the first team to finish the count and would not have won the game so it's a moot point. Judging by the way their taxi driver catapulted them to first at the beginning of the leg, the outcome could have been much different than what we got.

Cuz I'm still not 100% convinced she was an actual human female and he made me long for a tragic surfing mishap in his near future. That said-the b*tchy brothers were 1000x worse. No, if it was rigged then Team Zebra would have won. This was just human error.

It was cutting into his mid section, which is why he couldn't walk down like the others did, even if he had tried.

If theres this many complaints on the last leg than something is seriously wrong with this operation. there is no way that people that they hire should have this much of an effect on the race.

The other thing I did not like about the final task was that some team might get a slower chip counter than another.

When you go on these shows you have to be prepared for these things to happen. They paid Lex and Big Tom extra in Survivor 3. And it would have resulted in Lex and Kim J in a tie. This was Brian and Erika is a counter's fault not the show. Its basically the same as if they were to get a bad taxi driver who doesn't know where they are going.

This has been covered before. Taxi drivers are not provided by the race. This roadblock or whatever was a SPECIFIC RACE TASK, and the counter was hired by AR.. thus it's the show's fault. That's one major fuckup.. I was thinking the same thing while watching it.. and not surprised it happened. Brian and Ericka should definitely be compensated.
