Withdraw

[edit]

Can we decide whether or not to use maroon to indicate if a team withdraws from the race for medical reasons? In the history of the franchise, seven teams have withdrawn for medical reasons: Alice & Richard (Shanghai Rush), Andrea & Ronnie, Dave & Connor, Hannah & Margalit, Jen & Shawn, Marshall & Lance and Mel & Mike (Unfinished Business) 174.1.50.249 (talk) 05:47, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

U-Turn in Leg 3

[edit]

Can someone clarify the U-Turn of leg 3? It seems that the U-Turn was available but edited out of that leg's episode. ApprenticeFan work 07:13, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Available in this link: http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2014/05/06/amazing-race-canada-season-2-international_n_5273355.html Video has Alain & Audrey just u-turning Sukhi & Jinder. Rex and Bob also attempted to U-Turn Natalie & Meaghan, but since Natalie & Meaghan used the Express Pass they likely skipped it. I don't know if Sukhi & Jinder were affected but its possible that they attempted the Master Chef detour first, switched to Kung Fu, then were forced to do Master Chef again.

As for the location of the U-Turn, I suspect it is Hennessy Street and I have tried to look for the distinctive column seen in the clip where the U-Turn board is via Google Street View. I suspect it is a MTR subway entrance but not sure which one. U-Turn boards are generally within walking distance so Sheung Wan is out (it is a considerable distance away). Hennessy Street is a likely bet because that street has no streetcar tracks in Wan Chai but it is a busy bus route with fencing to separate both directions of traffic.

If I can, I'll edit the article, but if you want to do it, at least the link will point you in the right direction. Tahna Los (talk) 18:20, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay I edited the article to include the details of the Double U-Turn in Leg 3. Still don't have any clue where the U-Turn box was located tho, although it is well established it is in Wan Chai. Tahna Los (talk) 14:32, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Maroon to Red [Jen & Shawn]

[edit]

I changed the '10th' from maroon to red simply because Jen & Shawn's withdrawing from the Race is already noted in the Notes section. They were also eliminated by Jon at the end, so why use another color? Albertdaniel222 (talk) 13:58, 9 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I support this for ALL of the above mentioned cases. Withdrawing from the race is just an unusual form of elimination, and the host will ALWAYS say that they have been eliminated from the race. Shadow2 (talk) 05:45, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
