I'll try to make things clearer from now on and easier to understand. You guys have a week to hand in all three scores so do not rush. Any questions you have I will answer them as best I can.
This was bound to have a rocky start as it's not easy for people who haven't watched the show to understand. Hopefully after this week, all will be clear.

But you made it seem like only one person played each game. But in the pm you sent you have both of us playing both the roadblock and the first challenge. You said pikc one person for the roadblock. And wheres the detour at?

And wheres the detour at? # The Detour is the one you both play, Roadblock is the one only one of you play. I'll explain it better when I get back tomorrow, I'm sleepin' out tonight.

Jack, explain this to me. Why is it that certain teams play Pac-Man and other teams play Space Invaders? How do the scores against each other work? Shouldn´t it be someone plays Pac-Man and the other plays Space INvaders?

^ I think it goes by how ever you feel you could get the best score on.
So if you suck at Pac Man but are really good at Space Invaders then you should have picked Space Invaders.
But if you are great at both and feel your score for Pac Man would be higher [say the game just gives more points naturally] then Pac Man would be the best choice.
It's all about your choice.
Seems half of the teams like Pac Man more and the other half like Space Invaders More.

So basically that would mean that two teams would get eliminated because there would be two bits, Space Invaders challengers and Pac-Man challenges. It can´t be the highest score and lowest because Space Invaders could be easier than Pac-Man because of the scores. too confusing at the moment.

No, only one team gets eliminated. In the real Amazing Race, the teams get to choose between two challenges. Often times, it can be the choice that knocks teams out of races. I'm assuming these Pac Man and Space Invaders sites score similarly.

^ Yeah but sometimes it is your choice that can get your knocked out so it is kinda important to choose a good game.
Only one team can get eliminated a week and some weeks it will be no one however the last place team will be penalized somehow.

I think I get it, so basically you should want to play both games first, see which is easier to get a better score and play that.
Anyways, both my scores are sent in, I did very well imo.
And as to who I think will be eliminated first, sorry. But I think it will be NeverGRANT.

^ No you don't play both of the Road Block [?] games and pick the best score.
You are locked into the ONE game you decided was the best out of Pac Man and Space Invaders.
So no need to waste time playing Pac Man if you chose Space Invaders because your score will only count for Space Invaders no matter how much higher it would have been for Pac Man...
You decided so you have to stick with that game.
At least that is how it was played when Jack, a couple others, and I played this game last.
I guess we'll see if he changes the rules.

I meant you should play both Pac-Man AND Space Invaders before you choose and decide which is easier then choose. There was only one roadblock game. I confused us both.

^ Well yes you should be aware of what you are better at but in the future he won't send you the links to both Road Blocks before hand so you will have to decide without knowing much info.
I know Hailey [former Amazing Race host on my other forum] would send something like this regarding the Road Blocks:
Would you want to play a game with bubbles or a game with cars?
That's just an example but you have to decide without knowing what the exact game is and your semi-blind choice could determine the order you place.
Hope that helps but still like I said I don't know for sure how Jack will do it.

Sorry to double post but seems like not many people are in here anymore. But I send in my scores. They are not the best but I really doubt we are leaving. We are final 2 if not winning material!

Just a little heads-up seeing as scores are due tomorrow. My Pacman score was over 10,000 and my Hoops score was over 35,000
