I edited a part Jon. I forgot to include Henry and Bernie at the "@ The Khai Dinh Tomb" part.

Mai, you are so sweet. How long will it take one file to be sent? So you mean there are 5 parts or more? I am kinda new to these. hehe

Mai, I think there was an error??? Something is really bothering me.

No problem, Alenn_wafu. I appreciate it. Thanks for the effort to stay late just to give us the recap.

No problemo.

Yes, the videos are great . Quality is good. Thanks so much Hey, I thought you're sleeping now? I sleep now then I wake up later. See you.

Avalanche wrote:Here comes LAOS

Where is your Laos??? Watch the show. I just finished the whole show. All the links are posted all over here. Thanks to Mai-Siomai, Angguncs and Camomile and our reporters. The preview is at the youtube video.


And I was laughign how you accidentally discovered the pitstop. Though your only lead was a videocap showing Geoff in a Hue bus station, you managed to tell the whole world it was indeed inside the FORBIDDEN PURPLE CITY inside the HUe Citadel.

Hahahaha LOL What a wonderful job. I think you are more of a psychic. You have a picture of a bus station but what you saw was really the pitstop inside the Purple City. Only you can do that!!!

JonL0ver wrote:Yes, the videos are great . Quality is good. Thanks so much Hey, I thought you're sleeping now? I sleep now then I wake up later. See you.

haha Jon! I managed to catch some sleep but I just can't sleep well knowing that I'm still uploading some videos. It's good to know that the quality's good....maybe that's the reason why the file is really large. How's the downloading time? Was it fast? Enjoy the show!

Yes, Mai. the quality is good. So if anyone of you wants the videos be sent to your computer just let us know. I can share it through Pando just like what Mai did.

And what I like about the videos from Mai is that there are less subtitles except for the English ones. I just observed if the show is recorded in the Philippines, the videos have no Tagalog subtitles but when the show is recorded in Malaysia, there is Bahasa Malaysia, Chinese if it's from Singapore, Thai if it is from Thailand. Well, I understand this point.

But I am not saying I am not grateful with the effort of Camomile and Angguncs. I remember, betoyski22 recorded it also from the PI.

Oh, downloading is also a challenge. It is around 2-4 hours. Haha. Thanks Mai. Can you do this again next week?

Of course, Jon! I'll do it again next week! hehe....

You downloaded it for 2-3 hours? Why? Maybe your server is slow. Ragazzo downloaded it in just a few minutes only earlier this morning.

mai-siomai wrote:You downloaded it for 2-3 hours? Why? Maybe your server is slow. Ragazzo downloaded it in just a few minutes only earlier this morning.

I mean the time it took to be transferred from your computer to mine took around 2-3 hours. But when I played it, instantly, it played - not even a minute.

oh ok. i hope i'll do better in uploading it next week....well, i've got 6 more days to perfect that....

Why is it Youtube videos not available already!!

I don't want to download the show in my computer, I oni want to watch it!

Oh, I am very sorry to hear that Ahdeng. I can send you what Mai have sent me provided that you are willing to download Pando. Or you can ask your husband to do it and I will give him the link.

Th eyoutube video was already pulled out by AXN. Copyright issue :evil:

Oh, no I think i'm a little ignoramous of this.

Mai, if I send the video to Ahdeng's e-mail, does she need to download pando???

where??

See, I told you the pitstop is at the FORBIDDEN PURPLE CITY!!

Who laughed at me when I told it was in that place?

Huh, I did not laugh. I know you were right from the start. Hehehe. I am actually amazed how you see a Forbidden Purple City in a picture of a bus station? LOL

Only Nostradamus or a psychic can do that.

Hey let's assess our work for this episode so that we know what to focus next time. Hehehe

Yes, she has to dl pando........

JonL0ver wrote:Hey let's assess our work for this episode so that we know what to focus next time. Hehehe

Let's list 'em:

We are right with the following:

1. Pitstop is inside the Forbidden Purple City
2. Hue is the location.
3. Roadblock at Khai Dinh's Tomb.
4. They will ride a cyclo to Hue Citadel and on foot to the Purple City.
5. Camomile speculated there is no FF or yield.


We are not right with these speculations:

1. They will ride train or fly to Hue although you earlier speculated they will take a bus to Hue. But who told you bus to Hue takes 3 days?
2. They didn't go to Da Nang or Nha Trang or Cu Chi Tunnel
3. No ride on a boat along Perfume River from Khai Dinh's Tomb.
4. Roadblock come first before detour just like Leg 2.
5. No FF or Yield or U-Turn
6. It is an ELIMINATION episode.
7. Our leader board sucks

We all did a poor job but thanks to everyone who participated

1. They will ride train or fly to Hue although you earlier speculated
they will take a bus to Hue. But who told you bus to Hue takes 3 days?

__________________________________________

It wasn't 3 days....but 25 hours only (1 day and 1 hour).

Yes Mai, it is 25 hours. Hehe

Avalanche, we have to thank all the forummers who particpated and of course the other detectives.

We personally thank TequilaMoon, Camomile,Mai-Siomai, Alan_Ariel, Nazrin, Alenn_wafu, Eragon, Ahdeng, Darling, Farah, Sprity...I just enumerated all those who wrote in this particular topic

Re: leaderboard, we are righ with these:

1. Pailin and Natalie are last in the mat
2. Niroo and Kapil are 7th in the mat

See! Hehe

But the stand out is the Forbidden Purple City as seen from a picture of a bus station. Hehehe
