Two minute rule

[edit]

It says in the article that the two-minute rule is unique to the amazing race asia. I remember reading a forum post once that said someone found a clue left behind by the amazing race USa. It did actually say "Two-minute rule applies here" on there. I don't have the source anymore

Date of race

[edit]

When was the actual race run? During which month(s) of 2006?

Troy88 15:02, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

for date of the actual race, it must be before September 27, 2006. Racers were shown landed in Bangkok, Thailand at the old international airport (Don Muang Airport) Thailand had changed the bangkok to Suvarnabhumi Airport on September 27, 2006 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.136.79.106 (talkcontribs)

Results

[edit]

I deleted the results section. Please do not put it back. Results are for season-specific pages, not the main article. Thank You Anchorage 18:30, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have also deleted the cities visited. We don't have this for the american edition. It was also poorly written. Anchorage 23:11, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Penalties

[edit]

Have deleted the statement that Hitchhiking is a new prohibition not seen before. It has always been the case in the US edition that travelling in private vehicles is not allowed, so this is nothing new. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.83.11.170 (talkcontribs)

Trivia

[edit]

Sections needs to be trimmed. It's basically list-cruft and violates WP:NOT. --Madchester 17:45, 6 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not so sure which part did you mean, can you list out? Thank you. --Aleenf1 00:13, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First Female Team

[edit]

Zabrina and Joe Jer were the first all Female team to win The Amazing Race. However Joe Jer was not able to attend the memories edition because she went on a trip to Columbia.

Language spoken on show.

[edit]

I live in Australia and have not seen the show. What language/s are spoken by the participants? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.59.196.56 (talkcontribs)

English, all participants require to know English (at least simple) as basic. --Aleenf1 05:16, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Europe is now visited

[edit]

I watched this episode tonight, the 6 remaining teams left the Asian continent and they race to Europe. The first clue opened and thought they will fly to Germany. -- 14:14, January 10, 2008 (UTC)

Virtual Pit Stops

[edit]

I noticed that the double-length legs in season 2 and 4 were treated differently than the double-length leg in season 1. But upon checking those episodes, they weren't really treated differently.

In season 1, the "To Be Continued..." title card, and the "You're the Nth team to arrive", "The race is still on", "This leg of the race is not over yet" phrases were used by the host.

In season 2, "You're the Nth team to arrive", "It's not a pit stop", "The race is still on" phrases were used.

In season 4, the term 'Virtual Pit stop' was used to contrast it to a 'Pit stop', and the phrases "This leg is not over" and "The race is still on" were used. And while prizes were consistently given to the first place teams on other pit stops, none were given at the virtual pit stop.

The host's script for TARA is quite strict, using the phrase "You are team number N" when checking teams in at pit stops. So for now, I'm editing these parts to reflect a "double-length, but single leg" in those pages. Albertdaniel222 (talk) 06:06, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
