Note to self: On the off-chance that I am ever in Oman DO NOT rely on a map!

So I guess we're at the point where the rest of the eliminated teams don't go to Elimination Station. Do they continue the race as decoys now?

I think it's because there are actually only 2 or three race days left and not enough time for the eliminated teams to get to Cancun. The last three teams are not eliminated one by one, so none of them would be heading to Elimination Station anyway.

Oh, Aurora, to answer your question: I imagine they are probably staying somewhere near the finish-line city.

Thanks Ophiliasgrandma. I forget that what we see in weeks is actually in days. But I seem to remember reading in past seasons that a few continue racing as decoys to protect the identity of the final few couples.

I believe they do decoy teams also.

Mallory seemed to deal much better with the defeat than I would have expected - Rachel doesn't care if she "sounds immature" - how about IS immature?

Those immature volley ball girls are not improving my image of jocks much. LOL. An all women team just has to win so we can see the look on their bitter faces!

They definitely run decoy teams.

Sea, can you give an example. I just don't really understand what you are saying. Thanks.

OG, the last few teams that are eliminated (this season starting with Gary and Mallory) run as decoys so when people start reporting that they saw a "team," the spoilers won't be able to figure out who is still in the race and who isn't. Gary and Mallory and whoever else is eliminated from this point forward will still fly with the rest of the racers and not go to Elimination Station.

Oh, all the ones still in the race know it, but it's not shown on camera. I didn't know it, but it makes a lot of sense. Thanks, Lexie!

They also participate in some of the challenges, to throw off anyone who wants to figure out who's still in it.

Well, it sounds like being a decoy is a lot of fun even without the chance at the money! While I would certainly LIKE the money, the chance to travel and see more of the world is not a bad thing at all -
