Talk:The Amazing Race 7

message: Just a note, I added the info on Season 7's DVD being released to the main article. It works along with Season 1's info, I feel it fits.
The spoiler that appeared here now appears at the end of this page.  --AStanhope 18:47, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Season 7

message: I removed this spoiler (highlight section to view) - "In an interview with host Phil Keoghan, he mentioned that there will be a new twist for teams who finish last on a non-elimination leg." - because it doesn't provide the source of the information, and because nothing about it has aired yet. I'm sure we'll get something in later. -- Netoholic @ 18:53, 2005 Mar 3 (UTC)
This was from an interview with Phil @ TVGuide.com  The link needs a password though.  You can read the full article here , just scroll to the bottom.
But I'll quote an excerpt from the article:  "There are a lot of photo finishes, and there are a couple of new twists and turns that will really engage people. For example, teams that come in last place will face new consequences that we haven't seen before."
Since this information is in regular print media, it's not really spoiler material.

: Don't put spoilers in the intro.  I consider any information that has not yet aired on the show as a spoiler.  We do not need to be in a hurry to put this in. -- Netoholic @ 08:00, 2005 Mar 4 (UTC)
why was that bit of info removed?  I think it's relevant to the show; it's no different than the info provided on the CBS website or previews at the end of each show.  it's not a spoiler if something is the news is readily available public domain.--69.198.108.83 15:10, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: First, it's legs not rounds.
Second, I don't get the double standard used here. It's okay to include a "spoiler" and use it to create 2 brand new articles (i.e., Phil's mention of future season on The Early Show when they presented the checks to F/K). Yet it's not cool to add one sentence based on a printed article based on a full interview in an existing article. It's not a spoiler anyway; Phil was just previewing the new season. He does that for every season. It's no different than that 30 sec. clip at the end of each show.  AOL actually has a 2 minute preview each week as well.--LeoTheLion 18:03, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  non-elimination legs 

message: Can we start a survey to decide some spoiler policy for this and future Amazing Race pages.  I find it very frustrating that every piece of information seems to be labelled as spoiler material and removed immediately, even though there is a spoiler tag at the top of the article. --Madchester 08:02, 2005 Mar 28 (UTC)
:I'm a casual watcher of the show, and I really don't mind the spoilers on the page.  I think anyone should be willing to read the rest of the article at their own risk.  So many pages already have a spoiler note and it's the responsability of the reader to decide whether to continue reading or not.  I hope the contributors here keep adding interesting and relevant details bout the show.  So I'm for spoilers, provided they're written below the spoiler tag'., 28 Mar 2005
:: I'd have to agree, KEEP SPOILERS AS THEY ARE'.  People should have access to as many detailz possible.  The more comprehensive the article the better.  28 Mar 2005
:::I agree.  There's a spoiler warning, let the reader beware.   Mar 28, 2005
I was reading the Wikipedia:Spoiler warning and I think that's the best reference here.  Refer to what I wrote under Posting Results.  According to the guidelines, a spoiler tag alone should suffice.  A compromise can be made by rewording the spoiler tag if necessary. :-X 005 Mar 28
* As long as the spoiler warning is present then spoilers should be OK.  That being said, only the WARNING should appear at the top of a page.  The spoilers themselves can NEVER appear at the top of a page.  I also think that (as somebody did here in the example above) obscuring the text of a spoiler in a bright color forcing a reader to highlight it is a good idea...  People should do that if they have the ability/inclination to do so.  - 04:46, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Survey for spoiler policy

message: If you read the intro at the CBS Amazing Race site... "Winning the hard-fought match, Rob & Amber stepped on the mat and received a shock when Phil told them that he had their next clue. The leg was not over." 
Some anonymous person keeps trying to revert the page so that it's 9 legs, when Leg 8 was obviously broadcast over 2 episodes. Just to let peeps know to prevent that person from starting some revert war.  Cheers --Madchester 02:30, 2005 Apr 20 (UTC)
They are now considered to be two separate legs which they should be since they have 2 legs worth of tasks and a fast forward on the latter leg. A fast forward comes early in a leg not after it's half over. What Phil said here as well as seasons 8, 9 and 14 was to avoid controversy of why they weren't performing the money stripping penalty (or speed bump on S14) so the easy way out was to say "the leg is not over" to cover it up.

thread_title: Leg 8 (Double-length)

message: Do we actually need this?  There's already a leaderboard to show how each team placed each leg.  Not to mention the fact that the info provided is way off. --Madchester 01:30, 2005 Apr 26 (UTC)
:Agreed -- this article is getting far too long in my opinion. Unless someone voices objections, I'll edit it out later today. Some information on the progress of the teams is nice, but the level of detail we've accumulated is a bit out of control. Elysion 17:29, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Elimination Notes

message: It's obvious that they never aired actual footage of the boys flipping the car over. It was substituted with some other footage (you can see the drivers are wearing different clothing than the brothers) Also, the cameraman was dangling outside of the vehicle, which is why he got injured during the rollover. Now if he's dangling outside of the vehicle, how does he film the brothers flipping the Land Rover?
I can't remember if they refilmed it with actors or if the used some stock footage from elsewhere to mimic the accident.  Unless it's referenced, there's no point adding what is otherwise speculation. --Madchester 18:28, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Cameraman + rollover

message: I'm watching GSN's airing of the last ep right now and the teams just went from cutting onions, to doing the golf task, to the airport, to the sugar factory. That doesn't jive with the list in this article. Was this a 2 hour episode recut into one hour with half the stuff cut out or what? 74.102.224.43 08:41, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Tar-7-roadblock.jpg

message: According to some viewers over at Television without Pity, there was an extra task in Jamaica that involved running through a school, listening to schoolchildren singing "You're so cold/hot" in reference to their clue location. Apparantly, according to an Australian viewer, he is not confused as he can see it on his VHS taped recording of the episode. Apparantly, this extension of broadcast was seen everywhere except for the US and Canada. Link to post: (Continues to page 118). Thoughts? Is this true? Should it be included in the itenerary/trivia?Shadow2 (talk) 08:28, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
