Season 21 ◄ Chronology ► Season 23 |
The Amazing Race 22 is the twenty-second installment of the reality television show The Amazing Race. It featured eleven teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship, in a race around the world.
The season premiered on February 17, 2013, at 8:00 p.m. EST[Note 1]/PST on CBS and CTV, with the two-hour season finale on May 5, 2013.[1][2]
Professional hockey players and brothers Jonathan "Bates" and Anthony Battaglia were the winners of The Amazing Race 22.
This season was broadcast in the mid-season of the 2012–13 TV season. In an interview with TV Guide, Keoghan revealed that the Double Your Money prize introduced in the previous season would not be included in Season 22.[3] Instead, the twist this season was that the winners of the first Leg were awarded two Express Passes: one for themselves and another that had to be given away to another team before the end of Leg 4.[4]
The season spanned 30,000 miles (48,000 km) through ten countries in five different continents. This season featured the Race's first ever visit to the French overseas country of French Polynesia, where teams skydived above the island of Bora Bora. Other tasks and travel destinations included "Shemozzle racing" in New Zealand, hunting scorpions with Bushmen in Botswana, and climbing the north face of the Eiger in Switzerland.[4] Along with French Polynesia, this season also featured the first Race visit to the constituent country of Northern Ireland.
This season marked the first time that a team had been eliminated while still in possession of the Express Pass since its introduction as well as the first time a team was subject to two separate U-Turns during the Race.
Contestant Dave O'Leary tore his Achilles tendon near the end of Leg 2. Though he and his son, Connor, continued in the race for another two legs (with Dave being forced to use a medical boot, crutches, and a wheelchair while in airports), they elected to withdraw from the competition at the start of Leg 5 after Dave was advised by his physician to have surgery on his ankle within two weeks of the original injury. Though Dave & Connor traveled to Hanoi, Vietnam, with the remaining teams, they did not participate in any tasks in the leg. Instead, after arriving in Hanoi they proceeded directly to the Pit Stop to be formally eliminated.[5] Dave returned to the United States in time to have the surgery to repair the tendon the day before the Race's filming completion,[6] and was able to return to compete in The Amazing Race 24 a year later and won along with his son Connor.
In Leg 5, in order to avoid confusion with the flag of the former independent state of South Vietnam, there were no route markers present in that leg. Previous editions of the program, as well as its international counterparts, have used solid yellow or yellow and white flags instead.
Additionally, the Leg 5 episode in Hanoi sparked ire amongst some conservative media analysts and viewers for the tasks involving a performance of a communist propaganda song and the brief visit to a B-52 bomber that was shot down by North Vietnamese forces during the Vietnam War and turned into a memorial for communist Vietnam's victory. Complaints came in from sources such as the national commanders of the American Legion[7] and VFW;[8] the Media Research Center's Culture and Media Institute[9] and liberal Democrat strategist and Fox News Channel pundit Bob Beckel also spoke of their disgust in the program's choices.[10][11] Yahoo! TV later reported on comments from viewers found on Twitter whose complaints ranged from threatening to no longer watch the series or statements that the episode was "weird" or "disrespectful to Americans killed [in Vietnam]".[12] Prior to the start of the episode for Leg 6, CBS aired an apology, noting that portions of the previous episode were insensitive to United States Armed Forces veterans. The message, read by host Phil Keoghan, stated, "We want to apologize to veterans - particularly those who served in Vietnam - as well as to their families and any viewers who were offended by the broadcast. All of us here have the most profound respect for the men and women who fight for our country."[13][14]
During Leg 7, Max and Jennifer were both issued speeding tickets by the Botswana Police Service after going through a speed trap. Botswanan law requires that tickets be paid before the end of the day, so both teams stopped racing in order to pay the fines before moving on. Unlike in previous seasons where racers have been penalized for receiving speeding tickets, the teams did not receive any additional penalties.
The final episode was dedicated to David Gene Gibbs, one of the camera crew, who died in a helicopter crash while filming a series for Discovery Channel.
Applications for The Amazing Race 22 were closed on May 24, 2012.
The contestants included professional road racing cyclist Connor O'Leary,[15] YouTube vloggers Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena, professional hockey players and brothers Jonathan "Bates" (an unrestricted free agent, formerly in the NHL and Swedish HockeyAllsvenskan) and Anthony Battaglia (of the CHL's Tulsa Oilers), and former Stealing Angels vocalists Caroline Cutbirth (descendant of Daniel Boone) and Jennifer Kuhle (née Wayne, granddaughter of John Wayne).[16]
Chuck & Wynona were originally cast for the previous season but pulled out due to a death in their family.[citation needed]
Dave & Connor, Caroline & Jennifer, Jessica & John and Joey & Meghan were selected to race in The Amazing Race: All-Stars, made up of returning teams from seasons 14–23.

At the starting line of The Amazing Race 22 in Griffith Observatory, teams were informed that the winner of the first leg would win the Express Pass, with the other Express Pass card to be given to another team before at the end of Leg 4. They raced to one of several Ford Fusions where a recording informed them of their first destination: the island of Bora Bora in French Polynesia. The clue also told them that there were only five spots on the first flight out of Los Angeles, and the second flight would not arrive until an hour later.
Upon landing in Bora Bora Airport, and teams picked up the clue where they found out for the leg's Roadblock, teams asked "Who's ready to take a giant leap towards a million bucks?". One team member had to sign up for one of six helicopter flights, with only room for two racers per flight. They then tandem skydived from over 10,000 feet (3,000 m) above the island while their partner would make their way to the landing location on Anau via water taxi. When the team reunited, they would receive their next clue.
The clue received directing them to Eden Beach on Motu Piti A'au for the second Roadblock, asking "Who likes to play in the sand?". The other team member who did not perform the first Roadblock and had to search among 400 sandcastles for a clue buried underneath them. If they did not find the clue, they had to rebuild the sandcastle before continuing. The clue instructed teams to assemble a va'a outrigger canoe and then paddle 1 mile (1.6 km) across the water to the Pit Stop on Motu Café.

The start of the leg had teams heading to Motu Toopua to the Hilton Bora Bora Nui. Teams had to search the resort grounds for the wedding chapel where a Polynesian priest would give them a safe travel blessing before handing them their next clue.
The clue received from a priest where it found out was for the Detour: a choice between Pick a Pearl and Take a Trunk. For both Detours, teams had to pick up a pair of water shoes and snorkeling gear provided to them at the Hilton Bora Bora Nui chapel. In Pick a Pearl, teams traveled to a point half a mile off shore in the open water where they had to dive beneath the waves to untie lines of pearl oyster shells that they had to shuck open to find two red pearls. After finding both pearls, teams had to swim over to an oyster farmer in a boat to exchange them for their next clue. In Take a Trunk, teams dove underwater, wearing special diving helmets, to look for a series of treasure trunks. They then had to take the trunk over to a submerged umbrella and unpack its contents, setting up an underwater picnic table. Once the table was set up properly, an underwater waiter would give them their next clue.
The clues instructed teams to take personal water crafts and a local map to guide themselves to Motu Tapu, referred to as "the most photographed isle in the South Pacific", where their next clue would be found, and directing them to the Roadblock, asked "Who's a well-balanced individual?". One team member participated in a traditional Polynesian test of strength, walking on a pair of sparring stilts while kicking a coconut across a 35-yard (32 m) stretch of beach. If the racer fell off the stilts, he or she had to return to the starting line, but the position of the coconut would not be reset. Once the racer had successfully kicked the coconut over the finish line, the team would be able to advance to the Pit Stop nearby.

At the start of the leg, teams were told them to fly to Phil's hometown of Christchurch, New Zealand. Upon arrival, teams had to find marked Ford Focuses and drive themselves to the Rakaia River Gorge in Windwhistle. Once there, they picked a number for a jet boat that would take them up the river the following day, requiring teams to set up camp overnight.
The next day, the boats took teams up river to their next clue which was the Detour: Rev It Up or Reel It In. Both Detour choices required teams to use all-terrain vehicles to reach the Detour tasks. In Rev It Up, both team members had to drive a modified vintage car through a set of cones in under a combined 83 seconds. Once both racers completed the course within the time limit, they would receive their next clue from race car driver "Flash". In Reel It In, each team member had to use a rod and reel to catch one fish that was at least 12 inches (30 cm) long. Once both fish were caught, champion fisherman Dirk would give them their next clue.
The clues teams received instructed them to Mount Hutt station in Methven where they encountered the Roadblock, asking them "Who wants to keep the Race from going to the dogs?". One team member ran a muddy obstacle course known as a "Shemozzle". After dressing in gum boots, stubbies shorts, and a burlap sack, team members picked a shepherd and farm dog and then ran through the course where they would be covered in molasses and feathers, climbed over hay bales, then finally rode an inner tube down a slide into a manure pond, all while collecting chicken eggs along the way, that they put in a basket at the end of the course. Once they had 12 unbroken eggs in their basket, a task that could take multiple runs of the course, a shepherd would give them their next clue, directing them to head to Windwhistle's Terrace Downs for the Pit Stop. However, teams were told to keep racing and Phil gave them their next clue.

Once on Bali, teams headed to the Ubud Monkey Forest where they had to pick up a coconut and then leave it for one of the crab-eating macaques to open. Once the coconut was cracked open, a "monkey expert" would retrieve the canister inside that held their next clue.
The clue that found out was for the Detour: a choice of Sandy Bottom and Fruity Top. In Sandy Bottom, teams dredged volcanic sand from the bottom of the Ayung River, placed the sand into baskets atop their heads, then transported it 200 yards (180 m) uphill and emptied their baskets into a larger container. Once they filled their container to a designated line, the brick maker would give them their next clue. In Fruity Top, after donning sarongs, teams had to prepare a traditional Balinese religious offering known as a gebogan (Indonesian), made from various arranged fruits. It would then be carried in a procession to the Pura Desa Puseh Temple in Batuan where it would be blessed before it would be placed on an altar. Once complete, the local priest would give them their next clue.
The clues sent teams to the Uluwatu surf beach in Kuta for the Roadblock, asked "Who's ready to get totally tubular and be worked in a way-gnarly challenge?". One team member had to go to Ketut's Surf Shop and search amongst several surfboards for one that had the image of someone they had all previously seen on the race. They were left to figure out that they were meant to look for an image of the Tahitian priest from Bora Bora. After taking a surfboard, teams had to search for their partner and then meet Phil at the Pit Stop nearby. Phil would only check teams in if they had the correct surfboard; they would be turned back otherwise.

Upon arriving in Hanoi, teams had to head to Rạp Công nhân Theater Gallery 42 for the Roadblock, asking "Who's ready to take in the sights and sounds of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam?". One team member watched a performance of a Vietnamese patriotic song. At the end of the performance, a phrase ("Vinh quang thay thế hệ thanh niên chúng ta"; "Glory to our young generation") was displayed on the stage. Without being allowed to take any notes, racers had five minutes to search the nearby gallery for one of several political posters featuring the phrase. If they picked a poster with the correct quote, the judge would give them their next clue. If the racers did not find the correct quote within the allotted time, they had to watch the performance again before being allowed to continue searching.

Once the dance was performed correctly, they would be given their next clue for the Detour: Make Your Move or Make Your Meal. In Make Your Move, teams went to the Temple of Literature where they had to set up a human chess board. Using a nearby cờ tướng board as a guide, teams had to find four human chess pieces that had symbols matching the pieces on the board and then set them up with four staffs in position on the human chess board. After putting each piece in the right position, the chess master would hand them their next clue. In Make Your Meal, teams had to prepare Vietnam's national dish phở. After picking up two empty baskets and two baskets of live chickens at the Ngoc Son Temple, teams had to navigate through a street market to pick up the rest of the ingredients on a shopping list, all with specific weights and amounts, and then find a cooking station to cook the soup. After preparing two bowls of phở gà, the chef would do a taste test and if it was cooked properly he would give teams their next clue.
The clues sent teams to the downed B-52 at Hữu Tiệp Lake where they encountered the Blind Double U-Turn Stand.

Upon arriving in Maun, teams then signed up for one of several charter flights that would take them to the Xhumaga Airstrip in Makgadikgadi Pans National Park. Upon arrival, they found a jar and picked a clue inside.
The clue which found out was for the Roadblock, teams asked "Who wants to make a new friend?". One team member selected a group of Kalahari Bushmen who would accompany the team throughout the rest of the Leg. They followed the Bushmen to a hole where they would have to dig up a scorpion. After one of the Bushmen put the scorpion into the jar that held the Roadblock clue, he would lead the racer to a stump that held their next clue.
The clue teams received where they instructed to take their group of Bushmen in their car to the clue box for the Detour: Fire or Fowl. Both Detour tasks required teams to mimic the animal sounds and mimicry made by their group of Bushmen while walking to the Detour sites. In Fire, teams traveled with their Bushmen to a nearby village where they had to learn how to properly make fire using two sticks, zebra manure, and grass. Once they had a flame, they had to use it to light the elder Bushman's pipe in order to receive their next clue. In Fowl, teams had to learn how to set up a trap in order to catch a guineafowl, utilizing a series of sticks, string, and eggs.

They then travelled to a nearby campsite where from memory they arranged a set of tiles featuring the silhouettes of the animals they saw in the order they appeared. The catch was that there were tiles for animals they did not see and there was no tile representing the hippopotamus, but there was one for the heron. If teams were incorrect, they had to complete the safari again before being allowed another try at arranging the tiles. In Brawn, teams had to fill a traditional sand sledge with firewood and then, using a carrot dangling from a stick, coax a team of donkeys to pull the sledge to a campsite over a 1⁄2-mile (0.80 km) away.

The clue teams received from the briefcase and instructed them to head to "The Home of the Nats", leaving teams to figure out that their next destination was Nationals Park, home of the Washington Nationals. At the park, one team member had to ride a zip line across the stadium and toss a baseball, while their partner, dressed in a baseball mascot costume, had to try to catch it. Once they successfully caught the ball, they could read it to see it had "Hains Point" written on it, their next destination.
Upon arriving at Hains Point, teams had to enter a giant ball pit to find globes marked with the various countries they had visited on the Race. Only one team member was allowed in the pit at one time, with their partner taking the globes passed to them and putting them in the order in which they visited them. Once their order was correct, another globe would open revealing their last clue, which directed them to go to "The Home of the First President". Teams were left to figure out this was referring to George Washington's Mount Vernon, the site of the Finish Line.

I'm pretty sure I'm in love with this dress. Planning on wearing it to graduation but it's even more beautiful in person. Worth the buy!
This dress is a great color, a muted bronze, not too sparkly. I'm 5-1, 100 lbs and the back was a little large, with the sides of the cut out back gaping slightly. It was a little too revealing for my liking with the side cut-outs, but overall really cute

Uncensored Customer Reviews
Customers who purchased the Sport-Tek Performance Half-Zip Pullover had this to say:
I ordered equivalent men's and women's shirts, both in True Navy color. The men's shirts I received came in True Royal. I thought perhaps I had inadvertently selected the wrong color for the men's shirts, but when I went back to check the order, I found that I had done it right. The version of the shirts reflected in the proof sent to me also had True Navy. In addition, the men's shirt has a substantially larger logo than the women's shirts. They were supposed to be the same, and the smaller is much better. The women's version looks great. Had I received all the same, I would be extremely satisfied.

Recaro Pole Positions Micro Suede << (priced to sell) >>
Hey guys selling my recaro pole positions. They are black micro suede and are super comfortable to sit in, the actual padding on the seats in different as well more of a memory foam than the standard velour seats.
I bought them for $1700 without the hardware. So if you just want the seats (no hardwear) i'd let them go for $1300.00. I have the VAC floor-mounts (longer ones) $250 each side so $500 total new speedware side-mounts $240 new, recaro sliders $200 new, VAC seat belt receptacle $200 new VAC sub moount $40 new I'm selling all the hardware together now for $600.00 or i will sell the seats with all the necessary hardware for $1700.00 The bad: the passenger seat needs to have one of the holes on the passenger seat re-tapped because i over torqued and stripped the threads, its an easy fix though (i figure i'd sell the seats cheaper than go through fixing them myself) They also have a MB logo embroidered in that can be easily removed as well, i was going to do it myself but once i put them in it didn't bother me since i coudl barley see it. txt me at 818-390-1203 if you have any questions. - Tommy :hattip: HERE ARE SOME CRAPPY iPHONE PICS WHEN THEY WERE IN MY CAR

"No, you don't talk enough to be boring."
Eddie Perez
"If you're bored with life - you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things - you don't have enough goals."
Lou Holtz
"when somebody spends £50 or £60 a head on a ticket it is not because he wants to be bored."
Arsene Wenger
"To start something you need to set a starting point first. This way, you will know how much you have to travel to get to the end. If you are confident enough, you will start it and you will get to the end. If not, you won't even start it. Traveling to the end without a starting point is dangerous. You won't know your success and failure. No progress is boring. Progress is exciting. If you want to get excited, make sure you are progressing."
"Everything is so boring, just like "human beings"!"
Pravin Prajapati
"Popular culture is riding a zipline to banality in a handbasket."
Rain Bojangles
"Sometimes life gets a little boring so you have to do something crazy to remember your alive!"
Neil Olsson
"Only the lazy get bored. There are infinite things to discover to get you busy even forever."
"Base adequacy sounds like one of the world's most boring terms [but] this isn't extravagant funding. It's middle-of-the-pack funding. Our goal is to ask that the state keep the promise it made to students and pay its debt to our families."
Eddie O'Leary
"The cost of everything has gone up. Whether it is pesticides, diesel, generator, tractor or running the bore."

For Long Island realtors, the spring market has sprung.
There were 16 percent more homes sold in Nassau and Suffolk counties last month than were sold in April 2011, according to an online real estate database. In fact, last month's numbers represent the fifth straight month of year-over-year sales gains.
Records show there were 2,065 homes contracted for sale on Long Island last month, 285 more than the 1,780 contracted for sale in April 2011.
[dmc-related-post-wp numitems="3" title="Also read"]Last month's numbers still pale to those of April 2010, when homebuyers rushed to get into contract to qualify for the expiring $8,000 federal home-buying tax credit. There were 3,101 homes contracted for sale in April 2010, about 50 percent more than were sold last month.
But brokers say activity at real estate offices across the Island has been brisk this spring, especially in the $250,000 to $350,000 first-time homebuyer category.
"We're seeing a tremendous amount of buyers out looking," said Barbara Wanamaker, owner/broker of Huntington-based Signature Properties. "Homes in the lower price ranges are moving very quickly."
Wanamaker said the spring buying season was also helped by an early start due to the mild winter.
Besides the rise in sales from a year ago, slightly lower inventory is another good sign for the residential market.
Last year at this time, there were 22,827 homes listed for sale in Nassau and Suffolk. Currently there are 21,741 homes listed for sale, down about 4.8 percent from a year ago.

Childish Gambino - Melrose
Artist: Childish Gambino
Producer: Stefan Ponce
Album: Because The Internet
Avg Rating: 2.8 ( 6 votes )
Not so long ago, a rapper softly singing his own hooks would have been considered ridiculous. Now, even Eminem is belting out emotional ballads. Though Stronger Than I Was made me wonder whether the pendulum had swung just a little too far, Childish Gambino's Melrose has brought me back to my former, mostly-positive opinion of the rapper-turned-singer trend. Released yesterday evening in a mysterious Tweet addressed to Bed Peace collaborator Jhené Aiko, this melancholy, Stefan Ponce-produced cut finds Glover crooning the plaintive line, "Someone gave you all my love, all my love," in between long, piano-driven instrumental stretches. For this haunting cut, last month's 3005 and much more, cop new album Because the Internet when it drops on Tuesday, December 10.

Tejada makes Royals' opening-day roster
MAR 29, 2013 8:13p ET
Manager Ned Yost made the announcement Friday before the Royals' exhibition game against Cleveland.
The 38-year-old is a six-time All-Star who last played in the major leagues in 2011 with the San Francisco Giants. He hit .239 with four homers and 26 RBIs in 322 at-bats.
He spent last season with Baltimore's Triple-A team at Norfolk, batting .259 with no home runs and 18 RBIs in 135 at-bats before his release on June 25. The 2002 AL MVP with Oakland, Tejada has a .285 career average with 304 homers and 1,282 RBIs.
Tejada began Friday with a .353 average and three RBIs in 34 spring training at-bats. He will get a $1.1 million, one-year contract when he is put on the 40-man roster. He will have the chance to earn $200,000 in performance bonuses: $40,000 each for 55, 65, 75, 85 and 95 games,
George Kottaras, claimed off waivers on Jan. 25 from Oakland, earned the job as backup to catcher Salvador Perez. Kottaras hit .306 in 18 exhibition games.
Brett Hayes, the other catching candidate, cleared waivers and was sent outright assignment to Triple-A Omaha.

Here are some links to check out this morning.
Even though Seattle lost for the seventh time in nine games, they still have a chance at the postseason if they can somehow manage to beat St. Louis on Sunday.
The Hawks-Rams game has been flexed to Sunday night on NBC. Hasselbeck says even though his team has not been playing, they need to seize the opportunity.
John Boyle of the Everett Herald writes that the Seahawks struggled to contain Tampa Bay QB Josh Freeman.
Steve Kelly of The Seattle Times says the Seahawks loss to Tampa Bay sucked all of the joy out of Sunday's division title battle against St. Louis.
Jason Cole of Yahoo Sports has this to say about the Hawks and their postseason chances. Cole: "The fact that Seattle has a chance to make the playoffs still is akin to saying it's great that 84-year-old Hugh Hefner just got engaged to a woman 60 years his junior. The images are just not comforting."
Chris Harry of AOL's NFL Fanhouse writes that the Hawks somehow have a chance to make the playoff while a more deserving team like Tampa Bay likely will stay home.
Peter King of Sports Illustrated explains the NFL's rationale for flexing the Hawks-Rams game.
Bryan Burwell of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch says the Hawks got gangster-slapped by the Bucs and that there's now way the Rams should lose to Seattle, even though they are playing at Qwest Field.
Matt Maiocco of CSNBayArea.com provides details on San Francisco head coach Mike Singletary's firing.

Bay Area Open (BAO) Tournament Format Guidelines
40K Tournament Format
- Every scenario has a total of 10 possible points.
- Whoever has the most points, wins. Equal points is a tie. There are no degrees of victory, winning by 1 point or 10 is counted the same.
- The tournament is W/L/D format, with accumulated points used to determine standings within a given final bracket. For example, if you end the event with a 4-3 record, you will be ranked within that bracket according to how many battle points you accumulated throughout the event. The official scoring is 1,000pts for a win, 500pts for a tie and then accumulated points within the game. So, a player with a 4-3 record who accumulated 7 points in each of his 7 games would end with a final score of (4,049points). We score it this way so that the W/L/D record trumps accumulated points, but points earned throughout the tournament matter in determining your precise ranking in the event.
- Pairings are Swiss style, based on strength of schedule.
Each scenario is built using two book missions played simultaneously with all 3 book bonus points. Each mission is distinct, for example, Heavy Support units in Big Guns Never Tire can not take the Relic. Winning one mission earns that player its points. If a mission is tied, neither player earns the points. Any bonus points earned via Warlord traits, etc. apply to the primary mission only. For example, if your Warlord becomes a scoring unit, that will only apply to the primary mission.
In the Scouring, each player places 2 objectives in their opponent's deployment zone and 1 outside of either player's deployment zone following normal objective placement rules (6 total on the board for the Scouring). Each player has a 1, 2, and 3 point objective, which are revealed just before the role to seize the initiative as normal. You will end up with 2 objectives in no man's land, and 2 in each deployment zone. Destroying fast attack choices counts for points to this mission.
In Big Guns Never Tire, each player places 2 objectives, one in their own deployment zone, the other in their opponent's following normal objective placement rules (4 total for this objective on the table). You will end up with 2 in each deployment zone. Destroying Heavy Support choices counts for points to this mission.
Book bonus points are added to the total, not to each mission. For example, if you win the Primary mission, lose the Secondary Mission, and get First Blood, Slay the Warlord, but not Linebreaker, you would have scored 6 points total (4 for primary, 0 for secondary and 2 of the 3 book bonus points for 6 total). You will have a score sheet for each scenario that makes tallying the points very straightforward.
- All Fortifications are allowed. If you are placing a large Fortification that would displace a piece of terrain already on the board, simply remove it.
- Mysterious objectives are used.
- Mysterious Terrain is not used.
- If you roll your Warlord trait out of the BRB, you roll once and choose any trait with that number. If rolling out of a codex, generate the trait as normal.
- Scenario 1: Emperor's Will (4pts) and Crusade (3pts): Dawn of War Deployment. There are always 3 Crusade Objectives placed outside of either player's deployment zone. Emperor's Will objectives are placed in each player's own deployment zone.
- Scenario 2: The Scouring (4pts) and Purge the Alien (3pts): Hammer and Anvil Deployment. There are always 6 objectives for The Scouring, 2 of which must always go outside either player's deployment zone. See scenario guidelines.
- Scenario 3: The Relic (4pts) and Big Guns Never Tire (3pts): Vanguard Strike Deployment. There are always 4 objectives for Big Guns Never Tire. See scenario guidelines.
- Scenario 4: Crusade (4pts) and Emperor's Will (3pts): Dawn of War Deployment. There are always 3 Crusade Objectives placed outside of either player's deployment zone. Emperor's Will objectives are placed in each player's own deployment zone.
- Scenario 5: Purge the Alien (4pts) and The Scouring (3pts): Vanguard Strike Deployment. There are always 6 objectives for The Scouring, 2 of which must always go outside either player's deployment zone. See scenario guidelines.
- Scenario 6: Big Guns Never Tire (4pts) and The Relic (3pts): Hammer and Anvil Deployment. There are always 4 objectives for Big Guns Never Tire. See scenario guidelines.
- Scenario 7: Emperor's Will (4pts) and Crusade (3pts): Dawn of War Deployment. There are always 3 Crusade Objectives placed outside of either player's deployment zone. Emperor's Will objectives are placed in each player's own deployment zone.
General Guidelines
Mission Order of Operations
- Roll for Warlord Traits and generate Psychic powers. Each player rolls 1D6, chooses any of the three Warlord Traits with that number for their trait. If rolling from a codex Warlord Table, roll for the power as normal.
- Roll for Night Fighting.
- Roll for Sides. The player rolling highest chooses their deployment zone (but does not yet deploy their army, as normal) and deploys any Fortifications. The player going second then does the same.
- Place objectives, with the player that chose their deployment zone first, placing the first objective. This can be any of their objectives. The Relic automatically goes in the middle and is placed before any other objectives.
- Roll for first turn as normal, following book guidelines for deploying forces, reserves, Seize the Iniative, etc.
Allowed Armies
- All current Codices, and White Dwarf armies will be allowed.
- Allies per the Rule Book will be allowed.
- Forge World units will be allowed so long as they are neither a Super Heavy nor Gargantuan Creature. The most recent version of the rules must be used. This means not just the "40K Approved" units, but any that do not fall within the above restrictions.
- Forge World Army Lists will not be allowed.
- Each player MUST have his pertinent rulebook with him to show his opponent.
Rules Judgments
Rules issues will be dealt with swiftly by a roaming judge. We use a hierarchy for determining rules issues as follows:
- Main Rule Book
- FAQs and Erratas
- Consensus of judges present at the time. Please note, that these judgments are final.
All models must be painted to a 3 color minimum. We count primer as a color. If you have any models that are not painted to a 3 color minimum, you will be ineligible for prize support at the end of the event. We will use a Paint Rubric for judging paint. No basing requirement.
Comp and Sports
There will be no comp scores at this event. We feel that the game has an inbuilt comp system with the rulebooks and Codices. We do not feel that a second, player created level of comp is necessary. So bring whatever army you want to play!
Sportsmanship will be handled as a simple thumbs-up, thumbs-down check box on the results sheet.
The temptation to ding someone on sports after a tough loss is often too much for many players to resist. We therefore are providing a very narrowly defined set of terms under which a player may mark their opponent with a thumbs down mark on sportsmanship. This system is intended to punish those who are being abusive, but to not allow chimpmunking. After a great deal of real world use, we have found this system to work very well.
Legitimate reasons to give an opponent a thumbs down on sports:
- Your opponent was 15 or more minutes late to the round.
- Your opponent was verbally abusive. This does not mean you argued with your opponent or that your personalities clashed, but that they were verbally abusive and insulting.
- Your opponent intentionally cheated. Be prepared to support your case to a judge.
- Your opponent slow played. We define slow playing as not completing 4 game turns of play. In the case of 20 or less minutes left to play, divide the time remaining between players to complete one full GAME turn. Time each other during this period to ensure that each player has an equal amount of time to complete a full game turn. If one player does not finish within their limit, the other player can force them to stop and then begin their turn. This mechanic is in place to ensure no one is slow played out of a turn of play.
What does NOT constitute a thumbs down on sports?
- You argued over rules with your opponent.
- Your opponent beat you.
- You didn't like your opponent's army.
- Your opponent thinks the Black Lion never should have been the head of Voltron. The Green Lion was way cooler. NERD RAGE!!!
A negative mark on sportsmanship will be met with administrative action as follows:
- First thumbs down: A verbal warning from a judge, up to reversing a win to a loss.
- Second thumbs down: Reversing a win to a loss, up to disqualification from any prize support.
- Third thumbs down: disqualification from any prize support, up to expulsion from the event with no refund of the ticket price.
- Fourth thumbs down: Expulsion from the event with no refund of the ticket price.
All models are expected to be WYSIWYG as much as is reasonable. Proxies are not permitted. Counts As armies with counts as allies will only be permitted if they represent a clearly concerted effort to build a unique army around an obvious theme. For example, an Adeptus Mechanicus army using extensive kit bashing and conversions will be fine. If you go this route, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE A HANDOUT TO SHOW YOUR OPPONENT THAT SHOWS WHAT EACH UNIT IN YOUR ARMY IS ALONG WITH ITS STATS AND PERTENANT RULES! You must also present this to them prior to the game so that they have time to understand what they are playing against. There will be no exceptions to this.
If your army uses only a single Codex but if for example you have Crimson Fists models using the Blood Angels Codex, or Chaos models using the Space Wolves Codex, that is acceptable. Allies for this type of army however, MUST be represented by their actual models. This is to avoid confusion. No exceptions.
If you are using converted or scratch built models with Forge World rules, this is acceptable so long as your model is as close to the represented model as possible in terms of equipment, size and shape. We will not be lenient with this.
If you have any questions about your army, ask us prior to the event so that we can let you know if what you have will be acceptable or not.
Modeling for Advantage
There is a fine line between creative freedom and modeling for advantage. We do not wish to stifle anyone's creativity, but in the end, this is a game that relies heavily upon the physical characteristics of the models being used.
Modeling for advantage will be handled on a case by case basis. To resolve a possible abusive situation, follow these steps:
- Ask the player to play the model as if it were a GW standard, modern version.
- Call a judge to ask for a judgement.
- Possibly substitute the model with an appropriate replacement.
Examples of what we consider modeling for advantage:
- Using out of date and inappropriately sized models such as the rogue trader era Eldar Avatar (which currently is a large, monstrous creature model but back then, was the size of a Space Marine, which would now grant huge advantages due to being so much smaller) or Gorka Morka Trukks (which are less than half the size of modern versions). If an army is made predominantly of Rogue Trader era minis (or any era) and is clearly going for a theme, then exceptions will be made. If it appears to a judge that the player is in fact modeling for advantage, then action will be taken.
- Increasing or decreasing the size of models to gain an advantage in gaining or granting cover. Custom Battle Wagons often fall into this category.
- Altering a model to increase the range of a model or to benefit your LOS.
Terrain will be prearranged and laid out by the TO's prior to the event. We will not be using terrain placement rules per the book as it is too time restrictive. If you come to a table and feel that it is not sufficiently or fairly arranged, or that it may have been moved by the previous players, alert a TO who will arrange the terrain appropriately.
Hills: All hills are open terrain, granting cover via LOS blocking/interference as normal.
Barriers: All barriers grant cover per the book and are not considered to be Aegis Defense lines unless they were purchased and placed by a player.
Buildings/ruins: All buildings and ruins are assumed to have a ladder or other means for moving up and down. Rules in the Rule Book will be used for Ruins and Buildings.
Rock Towers, Crates, and Can Towers: Are impassible and block LOS completely (even if there are actual gaps in the terrain pieces).
All other terrain functions as outlined in the book.
What to Bring
- Your Army
- Tape Measure, Dice, Game Aids, etc.
- 3 Objective Markers on 25mm bases, 2 Objective Markers on 40mm bases.
- 9 Typed Copies of your army list. Be sure to include write how many Kill Points each of your units is worth on your list for ease of reference.
- All pertinent rules for your army. Codecis, White Dwarf Articles, Foregworld Rules, etc.
- If you are using a counts as army, YOU MUST HAVE YOUR PLAYER HANDOUT FOR YOUR OPPONENT IDENTIFYING WHAT EACH UNIT IN YOUR ARMY IS, NO EXCEPTIONS!! You don't need to have one for every player, just one for the judges, and one to show each opponent.
- A Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles beer coozy. That would just own!

In and around Lhasa, division, mutual contempt — and sometimes violence — are a way of life, no matter the date.
Editor's note: Oct. 1 is the 60th anniversary of the People's Republic of China. To mark the occasion we have two dispatches from two very different corners of China — Tibet and Hong Kong. And from Beijing, Kathleen E. McLaughlin examines the event's unique security arrangements.
LHASA, Tibet — As I rode in a truck peeling around the curves of a narrow mountain road in southwestern Tibet, wheels squealed as the driver tried to pass a van. Minutes later the van sped past and cut in front of our car, almost forcing us over a cliff. "Bad Chinese drivers!" our Tibetan driver shouted, slamming his fist on the horn. The men pulled over and began a 10-minute shouting match.
This is the dislike shared by Tibetans and the Han Chinese who now outnumber them in Tibet's capital of Lhasa. While such animosity is usually tempered it sometimes erupts, like on the road that September afternoon or in March 2008, when riots in Lhasa prompted by police crackdowns on monks' peaceful protests killed 18 Chinese civilians, according to state-run media. With Beijing celebrating the 60th anniversary of the People's Republic of China Oct. 1, mutual contempt is running high. Before the treacherous drive south, I visited the capital, where armed soldiers stand on every major street corner in Lhasa's Old Town, one of the only remaining areas in the city still dominated by Tibetans. Looking like teenagers in baggy camouflage uniforms and full riot gear, soldiers patrolled the streets and scanned the city from its rooftops, prepared to quell any unrest.
Undercover police — dressed as tourists and even monks — search for hidden subversives. When my boyfriend photographed a caravan of soldiers entering a monastery, the plain-clothes women beside him whipped out her police badge and ordered him to erase the photos.
Enhancing an already ubiquitous military presence, in late August the Chinese legislature expedited the passage of a law ambiguously allowing police to "take necessary measures" to prevent riots and expanding their rights to interrogate "suspicious persons." It cited the Oct. 1 anniversary.
"I'm not as afraid of police on the street as I am of the secret police," one Tibetan shopkeeper told me. "They've been doing a lot of cleaning up, which means people go missing."
According to this same shopkeeper, police arrested two of his friends in sweeps that began after the 2008 riots. One was sentenced to 15 years and one to life in prison. The shopkeeper doesn't know their alleged crimes, but insists they were good men who happened to have strong political beliefs.
No official statistics on the total number of political prisoners in Tibet exist, though the Chinese government said it arrested more than 4,000 Tibetans after the riots last year. Several rights groups say more than 1,000 of these people, mostly monks and nuns, remain missing.

Fi revealed to be playable in Hyrule WarriorsAs I've discussed many times before, I like the idea of Fi in theory, in terms of her character design (that skating was awesome), and her place in the story.

Published on Jul 30, 2014 6:45 PM
SINGAPORE (AFP) - Singapore Airlines said on Wednesday its financial first quarter net profit plunged 71.4 per cent from the previous year, weighed down by lower passenger and cargo revenue.
Net profit in the three months to June came in at $34.8 million, down from $121.8 million in the same period last year, the national flag-carrier said in a statement.
Group revenue fell 4.1 per cent to $3.68 billion.
"Passenger revenue declined year-on-year on the back of weaker yields amid intense competition, and unforeseen events that depressed travel demand in some key Asian markets," it said, without specifying details on what events had caused a drop-off in passengers.
