Rules: Amazing Race

Choose 3 teams. These will be your weekly point-earners (though they may also cost you points). Each week, they will be scored (-10 to 10) on seven basic traits: Fast/Slow, Lucky/Unlucky, Strong/Weak, Smart/Stupid, Together/Divided, Schemer/Sucker, and Open-Minded/Ugly American. Each will also get bonus points (Leading) and penalty points (Trailing) based on whatever happens that week.

In-game events also represent points:
Yield Used: +20
Yielded: -20
Fast Forward Completed: +25

As does the ranking:
First: +50
Second: +40
Third: +30
Fourth: +20
Top Half: +10
Bottom Half: -10
Third Last: -20
Second Last: -30
Dead Last: -50 (-40 on non-elimination leg)

When you lose a team, pick a new one.

Finish Line Bonuses
Each week, you may also score 25 points if you correctly guess who the eliminated team will be and 25 points for who the winning team will be.

The pool will be updated after every episode. There will also be an example made after the first.
