Hi Pat, Thanks for responding so speedily to my idea. Here are my opinions on each of the points you made:

"For the headers (clue types), it is best that we stick to the clue types that we use for the "Route Markers" section of the episode pages (e.g. instead of "Next Clue," we would use "Route Info #"). For the Route Information that includes travelling by public transportation, we could probably break the headers into three: the first "Airport (Location)," "Flying," and the second "Airport (Location)"" 

I agree with you on this point. The "Next Clue" heading was just a placeholder anyway so I think your suggestion with "Route Info #" works perfectly. I have one question though: when you say "break the headers into three" do you mean when a clue specifies "Travel to country", we would not put the number of that Route Marker and instead put "Airport (Location)" and so on?

'''"For the placements, I think it would be better if we stick to how the placements of season pages' leaderboards are ordinal numbers, instead of cardinal." '''

I've grown accustomed to the old cardinal numbers of the wiki, but I understand your point so I agree with you on this as well.

"For placements that are not applicable to particular teams, we can just leave their box(es) in blank grey."

This makes sense as well, but I think, regarding the Fast Forward, a note should be made to show that this team went for a Fast Forward (maybe a star above their placement when that team returns to the regular course?).

For their "Detour Choice" box, U-Turned teams should only have their original choice, not the ones they were obliged to perform due to the effect of the U-Turn, as this will be reflected in their U-Turn box.

Yes, I see what you mean. It would be rather redundant for both choices to be shown when we know that the team was U-Turned.

'''For "Roadblock Performer," I don't find it necessary to add the number of Roadblocks a particular member had already performed, as this would be more applicable in their team page. '''

Agreed! I was trying to incorporate an aspect of the Reality Fan Wiki's table, but I see your point.

'''For the colors, we can use similar colors to what you used. '''

That's good.

I have three final questions:

1) does this mean everything else (such as the two columns for the U-Turn/Yield" box, the FF Symbol being used etc.) is all right?

2) there are times in the early seasons when the places are not 100% clear so how will we gage their placements? DO we use supposition/they way they were shown on TV/question marks?

3) Besides the "U-Turn/Yield" and "Airport" columns, I think this table will go on a clue-by-clue basis, sound good?

I can't wait to get started on this project! Thanks,

Linus
