Rate the Bottom of the Central Shaft Run - Day 8: Priceless Portrait

[PurpleParrot319]

I gave them a 5. I'm not a big fan of this run. This run should've been a win, but both players blew it. They weren't bad, but their mistakes during the run makes me want to rage.

I gave them a 6. Peter and Michelle were an okay team, they just made too many mistakes.

6. Not bad, but they really blew a solo opportunity

I gave the Electrified Key team a 7. They moved pretty swiftly through the temple and nearly got to the artifact, despite taking a long route. Yes, there were a few "mistakes" that they could have avoided, and Peter had the potential for a solo victory, but even so, they did well. Michelle's decision to descend into the Mineshaft instead of the Dark Forest only ate up about 2 seconds, which would not have been enough time to reach the Key anyway.

I guess I'll never understand why people like this run. It wasn't a good run in my eyes.

I'll give them a 6. They weren't a bad team, but too many mistakes cost them a victory.

Benjamin Franklin wasn't really a bad temple run in my eyes, just a disappointing one. I sort of find it pretty exciting to watch also. The only reason why I don't think it is a bad temple run because at least Peter and Michelle moved at a decent pace throughout the temple. If they were like an incompetent team like Jason and Dana, I would rank it closer. But these guys weren't too bad, they just had a bad strategy. With that in mind, this run ends with an even 6.00.

The next bottom of the central shaft run will be "The Good-Luck Watch of Empress Eugenie".

Empress Eugenie gets a 7 from me. I find this temple run to be very exciting, but Janeen brings this run down though. She shouldn't have been a frontrunner in the first place. I don't even know if they would've won if she was the second player. There is no reason to hesitate on every objective in the temple and move that slow. Jay was awesome though and he was just as good as Zac and Jarrid speed-wise. He got an unlucky break in the Jester's Court though also (which I don't hold against him). He reached the Good-Luck Watch, but that was the best he could do with such little time. I wanted to give this run a higher score, but this team really should've won. When you watch the other runs like Queen Boadicea and Red Sash, those teams had harder layouts and came closer then Janeen and Jay. It was all Janeen's fault at the end of the day, which is why I gave it a 7. But it was still very exciting though.

I gave Good luck watch a 7. Janeen ruined it all. Jay at least saved the team and at least managed to get the artifact.

[NekoSuave]

I love this run, but I can only give them a 7. If these guys had a chance to get out with the artifact, Janeen ruined it. Jay was awesome, though.

[Purple Parrots Fan]

I gave them a 7. This really should've been a win.

[PurpleParrot319]

I gave them an 8. Even though Janeen was super hesitant and scared, Jay saved this run and made it fun to watch. I would've given it a 7, but Jay gives it an extra point for being so awesome. I don't hold the Jesters' Court problem against him as that was probably a production error. Should've been a win, but Jay made this run fun to see.

[PurpleParrot4Life]

I have the Empress Eugenie team an 8 as well. Even though Janeen's incredible hesitancy in the temple ended up being costly to the outcome of the run, her degree of cautiousness and her reaction to the temple guard in the Shrine makes her portion of the run enjoyable. Jay then got to the Shrine in under 30 seconds and cruised to the Jesters' Court. Had that room cooperated, he would have come very close to exiting with the Good-Luck Watch. Overall, I find this run to be very enjoyable because both players were fun to watch, even if they didn't win.

Didn't the King' Storeroom's guard touch Janeen's butt? I remember there was one episode like that.

Yup, he groped a little feel while she was trying to hand him her pendant. A temple guard in the same room space in the "Polynesian Girl" run did the same thing to Kristen too. And that was a bottom of the central shaft run too that we will cover last.
