Time to start off with the best win.  

[The Red Jaguars]

Season 3 had a lot of great wins that deserved this title. In the end though, it came down to Pirate Captain and Apanuugpak. I had to go with the one that had "one of the best teams we've ever seen" - Pirate Captain. This win was a very strong victory and Jessica and Jarrid owned everything.  Even though their layout was tough and had a production error, they still won handily and the whole run was exciting. It was very rare to see a team dominate it like these two. Apanuugpak was amazing also for Gator alone. That guy tore up the temple and no one can ever top him. The reason why I didn't vote for this one though was because: 1.) I have seen it countless times that it sort of wore off of me. 2.) Amanda was kind of average at best. Both wins are exciting, but I liked Pirate Captain a little more. 

[Purple Parrots Fan]

Honestly, I voted for Apanuugpak. Gator owned everything, and I'd much rather watch this run than Lost Hornpipe. And that run was great too, but Jarrid sort of made the mistake of entering the Room of the Secret Password. That could've been really costly. So therefore, I'm not voting for Lost Hornpipe.

I love both wins, really I do. But seriously:

Gator >>>>>>>>>>>>> Jessica and Jarrid

I don't know, I might change my vote if this poll doesn't expire in the next hour. This was sort of a hard decision, between those two.

[The Red Jaguars]

And Apanuugpak wins the best win title! No complaints from me, this win was all about Gator.  I went with Pirate Captain as it was slightly better by a hair in my book. But both wins are great, so I can't complain if either won. 

Next up is the worst temple win of Season 3.

[The Red Jaguars]

I gave the worst temple win award to Roland. This is the only win from this season that doesn't impress me. This layout was the "         " layout of Season 3. Yakerra was a average contestant that wouldn't have scored a fast win in any other layout. She really should've beaten Shaka Zulu's record. Some other wins like Sforza and Benzibab had easy layouts too, but those wins were enjoyable to watch at least and had some redeeming points. Roland ranks near the bottom of my list.

[Purple Parrots Fan]

I also voted for Roland, even though I don't actually hate any of the Season 3 wins. Yakerra was a good player and everything, but she's not as amazing as she's made out to be. And she totally lucked into her win.

[The Red Jaguars]

And Roland wins the worst temple win title.

Next up is the best "Failed Escape" temple run.

[The Red Jaguars]

This was a hard decision. The three runs it came down to were Battle Flag, Queen Boadicea, and Good-Luck Watch. I couldn't vote Battle Flag because both players were responsible for that team losing, even if they reached a center of the temple artifact. It was a good and exciting run, but I had to take it off the list because of Olivia and Jonathan's mistakes. In the end, I voted for the Good-Luck Watch. The temple run was humorous, memorable, and exciting. Between Janeen's temple guards and Jay's screaming, this temple run is entertaining to watch. Plus, Jay was a beast in the temple also. They would've won if Janeen wasn't so hesitant, but it was still an exciting run nevertheless. Queen Boadicea was great also, but I felt Good-Luck Watch was slightly more memorable and exciting. And Lissy wasn't much better than Janeen either.

[Purple Parrots Fan]

I also voted for Good Luck Watch. Yes Janeen was hesitant, but I find it MUCH more exciting than Royal Torque, a run I don't like to be honest.

[The Red Jaguars]

Well, this one was pretty close. Both Empress Eugenie and Queen Boadicea finish with a tie with 2 votes each. William the Conqueror also received one vote also. For right now though, Empress Eugenie and Queen Boadicea will hold the "Best Failed Escape" title.

Next up is the "worst failed escape" run. 

[The Red Jaguars]

I voted for Enormous Feather as the worst failed escape run from this season. There is no run that pisses me off more than this one right here. This run would've been an easy win, but Karisa tried hard in every way to screw it up. She moved slow, looked clueless, and stalled way too much. Even Kirk felt that she was screwing around too much. I hate this temple run because of her. Broken Trident is pretty bad too, but at least it is memorable for the no temple guards encounter and the "mishap" by Kimberly. But this run sucked pretty bad too. At least Kimberly though wasn't doing too bad before the temple run...

[Purple Parrots Fan]

Yeah, I also voted for Enormous Feather. This is pretty much "The Missing Weather Maps of Season 2." Karisa stalled through every single room, and didn't even RUN when she grabbed the feather. Even Kirk and her partner David was pissed at her.

[The Red Jaguars]

I am glad that I am not the only that hates Enormous Feather more than Poseidon. It was amazing that Karisa even managed to reach the artifact. This is probably my most hated Orange Iguanas team on the show too next to Cracked Crown. I can't stand the temple runs where it should've been an obvious win, but the second runner blows their load big time. Alhambra, Lost Lariat, Missing Weather Maps, Enormous Feather, and Oracle Bowl are the runs that come to mind. I can't stand Poseidon either, but Kimberly was doing okay before reaching the Trident. Granted, she moved so slow too and deserved to lose for dropping the artifact. But Enormous Feather is more grating to me. 

[Purple Parrots Fan]

Yeah, Enormous Feather is definitely worse. And Good Luck Watch coloring from blue to green has been fixed in the OP.

[The Red Jaguars]

Karisa and the Enormous Feather win the worst failed escape award. 

Next up is the best triple capture episode.
