Daily Episode Log - GaS/TurboNick

[The Mandarin Hand]

At the tail end of the Helmet of Genghis Kahn, Dee announces "Portions of this program were edited not affecting the outcome of the game", a standard game show phrase, but one that (to my knowledge) was never heard again in a Legends ep.

Several season one episodes had that.  They replaced that in seasons two and three with the yellow words that stated the same.

A lot of the crap in Season 2 and 3 was used over and over again. It really gets annoying. Anyway, the episodes.

Milk Bucket of Fredyis - One of the great rare Parrots wins where the frontrunner has the nastiest fall in the show, but still won with only a few seconds left! And you know what's weird. Kirk called the second Parrot (I forget his name) Brandon....which is my name :p, a bit of a weird Fogg-up, but a great run nonetheless.

Helmet of Ganghis Kahn - The layout was pretty much a direct route to the Pirate's Cove, but the team just made it a bit hard on themselves, taking random routes. And WHAT is with the guard always appearing in the Cave of Size while the player is making his way out of the temple?! You'd think there would be a door, but no! He just sits there on his bum watching the players pass and sometimes actually cheering them on. Wow, he's even lazier than the one in the Dungeon J/K

Like the Star of Sultan Saladin, I thought the temple guards had vanished!  If you're too lazy to vanish...

"way to go uh i mean *roar*" said the temple guard

Wiith yesterday's spectacular episodes, I thought another amazing win  would show today.  Instead, we got:

The Two-Cornered Hat of Napoleon (Season 2)
The Melted Head of Madame Tussaud (Season 3)

Darn!  I will review yesterday's and today's episodes.

A French Friday 9/8/2006:
Napoleon's Two-Cornered Hat (Red Jaguars, Exciting Loss)
The Melted Wax Head of Madame Tussaud (Orange Iguanas, Failure)

[sag_2006]

The Two-Cornered Hat of Napoleon

After the frontrunner is taken out rather quickly, the second runner finds the (obvious) half pendant hanging in the wall in the Rock Quarry, and he'd need it, because a Temple Guard was waiting seconds later in the Swamp.  He manages to grab the hat, but even with the team's luck, they fail to get out in time.

The Melted Head of Madame Tussaud

Strange layout here, as all the Pit doors opened.  Unfortunately, the frontrunner decides to take the bottom floor, which only slows the team down and prevents victory.  His partner made the smart move of taking the direct route to the Storeroom, but could only complete the monkey before time runs out.

Reviews for today: (these are my last reviews for a while, as I'm gonna be losing both TV and computer access later today and until next Wednesday).

Two-Cornered Hat of Napoleon
Moat was where you had to climb on these tubes in order to get across. Unlike any moat crossing I've seen in Season 2. Steps Of Knowledge very, very long a lot of right and wrong answers. Temple Games: (do I need to say it?! ) red vs. orange...once again. 1st game you had to climb on thede 2 ropes and go to the top and get the crowns. Both managed to get 2 crowns so they both get the 1/2 pendant. Temple Game 2 you had to climb this mountain thing. both teams scrambled but I think the orange iguanas got the 1/2 pendant. Temple Game 3 you had to swing your partner around in order to knock the buildings down. Red won that game so it was orange iguanas 1 pendant, and Red Jaguars 1 1/2 pendants so they go to the temple! Temple run: frontrunner goes in first and is caught by a temple guard in the Crypt immediately. Then he is forced into the ledges and into the Rock quarry. In the next room he screams like a girl and is taken out of the temple. Then its Carly's turn and she follows Brian's path. She picks up the 1/2 pendant and continues into the Swamp, where the 3rd guard takes the pendant anyways. Then in the Mine Shaft she takes the elevator up into the Lightning Ball Room. Then, she assembles the silver monkey and even grabs the hat with about 5 seconds to go, but doesn't make it out in time.

Melted Head of Madame Tussaud
Moat crossing you had to stand on these green floaties and try to get across on the ropes. Steps Of Knowledge very very close it could have been any team going to the temple games with the Orange Iguanas. Temple Games were orange vs. purple. (I think you already know who wins...) 1st game you had to push this large ball into the opponet's buildings. I think the orange iguanas won that game. 2nd game was I think untimed, it was where you had to spin on this hamster wheel (lol) and collect the tickets. Brook of the purple parrots collected the most tickets so she got the 1/2 pendant. 3rd game you had to pick these waxed heads up to avoid the moving ball. The orange iguanas won with 1 1/2 pendants so they go to the temple! Temple run: Nick (that was his name, right??) heads up first where in the pit it looks as if all 3 doors open, but he takes the bottom route...only to run up the whole central shaft. Jennifer (yes another Jennifer) was being really loud and annoying, kind of like that girl Dana. Anyways Nick is taken out in the Room Of The Ancient Warriors and then its Jennifer's turn. She goes right up to the Kings Storeroom and makes it up to the shrine, where her time runs out.

Why are most of your summaries almost taken word for word from nicklegends.com/geocities. Most of them seem like from "Der Komissar" or someone like that (I butchered the last name), but this was almost the exact same as nicklegends' summary. Don't you know about plagarism, unless you are Der Komissar (If so, then deepest apologies, haha)? My schools teach a lot about plagarism.

Yes, thank you for saying that before I did. I didn't mind it the first time or two (you could have just read my summary for comparison with your own thoughts and subconsciously uses some of the wording I did) but I really don't want my summaries to be consistently "reattributed" to others. I do not feel that is fair to me. Perhaps next time you could write and post your summary first before reading mine?

sag_2006:  Plagiarize again and I'll see that you're banned.  Simple.

Edit by nicklegends: This type of decision will be handled via a moderator discussion should it happen again.

[Notundercovercop327]

Anyone who actually thinks "Jennifer" threw the pendant to Ty is very gullible.

i know it is kind of late for this but i don't want to wait another 2 months to be able to say this. i just saw the tape of the lucky medalion of atocha. someone does throw ty the pendant. whoever it was was barehanded. jennifer was wering gloves on both hands. it couldn't have been her it must have been a camera man

[Bluebarracuda7]

this may be late, but has "The Two-Cornered Hat of Napolean" always been paired up with "The Melted Head of Madame Tussuad"?

[juan833blue]

In the Melted Head of Madame Tussaud episode, if Nick had taken the top path to the King's Storeroom, this temple run would have been a win because the Temple Guard in the Chamber would have been eliminated.  This was a strange temple layout and even after Jennifer (Orange Iguanas, Season 3) finished the monkey just as time expired, it was likely the door to the Quicksand Bog would have remained locked and the only door that would have opened was to the Room of the Secret Password.
