Amazing Race Standings: Week 8

1. Paul: 1031 (+69)
2. Matt: 821 (-37)
3. Carl: 693 (-9)
4. Dawn: 667 (-22)
5. Kim: 421 (-75)

I'll keep this short and sweet since next week is coming up in a couple of days. Paul had his best week by far, earning 69 points to catapult him into a 200+ point lead. His 5th place prediction of Kynt and Vyxsin paid off twice for 50 points each time, the best possible situation as the Goths were finally eliminated in fifth place. Amazingly, Ronald and Christina and Nicolas and Donald are both making the top four, a situation that exactly no one predicted.

What are we rooting for at this point? That Nicolas and Don are eliminated in fourth place, which will deprive Paul of some bonus points. That Jennifer and Nate are non-eliminated and then eliminated in third or second, which would hurt Paul a little bit. Other than that, only a perfect endgame bonus situation stands between Paul and the title of Amazing Race Genius.

Don't forget to send me your picks...

Death to Paul!
