Amazing Race - Unfinished Business - Pool 2
OK folks...found a very different way to play this game.
http://www.funofficepools.com/poolinfo.php?Pool_ID=AR18
I have started a CalgaryPuck Pool at this site and if you want to join simply PM me your nickname and email address and Ill input your info to give this a go. It doesn't specify a set limit on teams so I will assume its open to as many or as little that want to join.
- Amazing Race pools are played in two stages
- Stage 1 starts when the show starts
- Pick which team you think will be the winner (overall winner - typically worth 3 points * number of teams competing)
- Assign 20 points to who you think will finish last each week
- Receive the points assigned to the team who is last (whether eliminated or not)
- You can change your overall winner pick anytime (worth 3 points * number of remaining teams)
- Stage 2 starts during the final week (typically three teams left)
- Assign 40 points to which team you think will win
- Receive the points assigned to the winner of the Amazing Race
- Receive overall winner points (1st, 2nd and 3rd place points are given)
- All stages (Optional)
- Answer bonus questions for additional points
- Sample bonus questions:
- Which team wins this week's leg?
- Which occurs first, the Detour or the Roadblock?
- Most points wins!
- Total score = points won each week + bonus points + overall winner points
