11:01.

Pretty good. I hope.

[Cybele]

Weep not for me, for I am dead.

[Drench]

I did hideously. Ah well.

To last ferry: Slow down! The audience wants giant frogs on the race, not humans!

...

Did I say that?

What time did you get to the mat?

[Drench]

Hit the mat at 10:22am

Woot!

10:29 my luck with my super awesomne stomach guy was 0 grrr

[Fuzzyman]

I got off of the ferry at 10:30.

Also, Phil, the fact that your post 295 was timestamped on Monday led me to believe that when you said clues were going out, "tomorrow", you were referring to Tuesday.

Remember that I live in PST, the post was at 10:30 that night for me. I tend to forget that once it gets to 9 here most of the world is on the next day

[Fuzzyman]

You're in the Pacific? K. I had originally thought otherwise because of your mixed timezone usage for clues.

[Fuzzyman]

Hit the mat at 12:06. That should be good enough if Drench came in at 1.

[Phil Keoghan]

Waiting on one more team to wrap up the leg

[Phil Keoghan]

Updates tonight, first week of classes was a bitch.

Who will stay? Who will go? Are there any twists at the pitstop? Only time will tell.

[Phil Keoghan]

Previously on the Amazing Race; fifteen teams set out from an overnight came on Lake Titicaca Peru, traveling to the city of Ica. The teams were divided into three groups of five, leaving an hour apart from each other.

The first ferry leaving the island carried Dallas and Star, George and Maybe, Shannon and Shanon, TK and Rachel and Matt and Nabil. In the race to Ica, George and Maybe fell behind early, getting slightly lost on the way to their next clue. At the detour, teams had to taste test, and memorize the flavors of several types of Pisco, which is a type of Brandy native to Peru. Quickly Rachel and Shanon started to match up the tastes, while Dallas and Star, and Matt and Nabil fell behind, as George and Maybe started to catch up to the group.

In a close race to the pitstop, it was Shannon and Shanon who took first place, leaving TK and Rachel to pick up second place. In a turn of events, Maybe quickly completed the roadblock, leaving a dumbfounded Starr and Matt looking on as they took third place, despite arriving more then ten minutes later then any other team to the roadblock. Dallas and Starr eventually claimed fourth place, leaving Matt and Nabil in fifth.

The second ferry carried Boris and Vladimir, Albert and Walter, Chris and Kevin, Cedric and Claudia and Sara and Edward. In a tight race to the roadblock, all the teams arrived in a very close times span, which made the roadblock the ultimate decider of rankings. In a race for sixth that quickly turned into Sara and Vladimir, Sara managed to edge out the competition, taking sixth place, while leaving Boris and Vladimir in seventh. They were followed closely by Chris and Kevin. In a tight race for ninth, Albert edged out Grace.

The final ferry had Vincent and Will, Grace and Dylan, Gibbler and Kyriake, Zazie and Chao and Ryan and Kyle. At the pitstop, Vincent and Grace quickly emerged as the front runners, easily taking a respective eleventh and twelfth. Meanwhile Chao stayed at a more constant speed and took thirteenth. The remaining contestants both ran into brick walls. Gibbler could not work out the roadblock, at all, and try after try left Kyriake nothing to do but look on as other teams finished and checked in. Ryan and Kyle however succumbed to a case of narcolepsy. Would this even matter though, as an undisclosed amount of teams were about to be eliminated.

In fifteenth place

Phil walked up to the group

still sleeping

Ryan and Kyle

, you are the last team to arrive, and have been eliminated from the race.


That means that a little bit earlier the following happened.

Gibbler and Kyriake, you are the fourteen team to arrive…..

I am however pleased to tell you that you have not been eliminated from the race. There is a downside though, you have been marked for elimination. If you do not come in first in the next leg, you will incur a 30 minute penalty at the mat. Good luck

[ShadowGirl]

Wow, sixth is awesome considering I was on vacation for half the leg.

[Fuzzyman]

Assuming we're only eliminating one team next leg, I feel comfortable enough.

[LlamaFluff]

Leg three will start noonish PST monday unless stated otherwise

[Phil Keoghan]

Doing my best to catch up on clues as much as possible for the next half hour. Life is getting tag teamed by ODE, Material Sci and aquatic chem right now.


**Edit**
I took the cheap way out and just mass PMed the second flight since most people are on that one. If you responded to Clue 3.0 and dont have a Clue 3.1 please let me know ASAP.

[Phil Keoghan]

Updated again, should be able to finish this leg during the weekend if people are active then

[Phil Keoghan]

Nearly every team has hit the stopping point where I need people present to continue. These teams have had a PM in their inbox for quite some time now and will dropped to the lowest spots by force if they have not picked up their clues by around this time tomorrow.

[Drench]

You mean I won't be at the bottom this time?

YAY!

EDIT: AMPHIBIOUS POWER!
