This was an easy decision for me. I voted for Dolley Madison. Both runs are similar, both second runners choked big time in the temple, but Dolley Madison was much more exciting to me. Even though Ashlie choked in the Dark Forest, she was still very fast, and at least she made it to the artifact. Kelli was both too slow and too clueless. Plus, I never liked Thornwood Gavel, too boring to me.

Add another vote for Dolley Madison! Dolley Madison is one of the very few Orange Iguanas episodes I like. It was fun and entertaining all the way through. And the temple run was exciting, even though Ashlie and Matt really should've won. And Ashlie was not that bad of a second runner either. She was much better than Kelli. As for Judge Roy Bean, I enjoyed the silly legend and unique temple game sequence. But the temple run turned me away thanks to Kelli. She made way too many mistakes. Although both episodes are pretty similar. Both are Jester's Court artifacts, both are Orange Iguana runs, both temple games were sweeps, and both second runners made mistakes. Even though Ashlie was miles better than Kelli.

The winner is

THE BONNET OF DOLLEY MADISON

I knew this was coming, yet I got to be the "1" again. I picked Thornwood Gavel because it was a more competitive episode. While the run may not have been as good, it wasn't to substantially bring the episode down. For Dolley Madison, I personally viewed this as just the Temple games and the run. Matt & Ashlie were very dominant in their games. However, in the run, they made some big flaws. Matt prevented this from being solo, and Ashlie screwed up in the Dark Forest. At least they got their artifact. Oh well, it didn't matter, both episode were going to get killed by Apanuugpak eventually.

Yeah, neither episode stands a chance against Apanuugpak.
