It's over.

Despite public outcry at the last clue (Now come on, it wasn't that bad guys), we have a winner.

The teams were utterly befuddled going into the final clue. They were at the airport in Vancouver, and they knew they had to get on a plane to somewhere in America. But where? They received just a blank piece of paper as the final clue. The teams thought long and hard about, and were given some clues. Eventually, one contestant got up, and walked through the gate to the correct plane. The others followed, but only he knew where he was going. The winner, arriving at the finish line at the University of Wisconsin first, is... RandomPerson52. Congratulations, RandomPerson, you are the official winner of the scioly.org Amazing Race!

This race was more stressful than anything else I have ever done in my life- including competing in the National Science Olympiad tournament.

By the way, the actual Amazing Race, Season 17, starts tomorrow at 8, or more likely, after 60 Minutes ends.

:lol: We've had to start recording whatever show comes on after 60 minutes because it so frequently runs late b/c of football.

I know! I was worried we wouldn't finish before the new one started. I can't wait!
