Sooner or later the fact that Ray did so many early roadblocks is going to bite them in the ass.

I'm not sure why. I don't think that the rule of equal distribution of RBs applies this time. Phil hasn't said anything about it. And if there is one thing they love to do on this show is develop drama by constantly banging specific rules into our head. Such as "A Detour is a choice between two tasks, eahc with it's own pros and cons..." I think the teams are simply imposing a rule from previous seasons. Maybe I'm wrong, but we'll find out soon.

If I remember correctly, it was mentioned in David and Lori's post-elimination media interviews that the rule was still in place.

Up to episode 10 (May 3):

Joseph 4 (bldg, gnome, polo, prison) Monica 5 (dive, statue, bungy, dig, skydive)

Eric 4 (dive, statue, dig, skydive) Jeremy 4 (bldg, gnome, polo, prison)

Tyler 4 (dive, statue, bungy, prison) BJ 5 (bldg, gnome, polo, dig, skydive)

Yolanda 3 (dive, dig, prison) Ray 6 (bldg, gnome, statue, polo, bungy, skydive)

Yolanda needs to do remaining roadblocks.

About the roadblock rule, Lake & Michelle and Dave & Lori talked about it in a clip and interview respectively. (It's all on page 1 of this thread)

But, while teams have mentioned it. that doesnt mean it's DEFINATELY in effect. They could, like us, be ASSUMING it is in effect and the producers aren't telling them otherwise to get good TV out of it..

Heh, interesting to see that Jeremy has been doing the less interesting of the roadblocks. BJ being ecstatic at being able to skydive after a horrendous digging RB was hilarious.

Finally, this 6 roadblock rule finally might affect a team, especially if Ray & Yolanda survives this leg and make it to the Final 3.
