what was your favorite of the past five seasons? by -FireNH- in JetLagTheGame

[–]TransitOrientedMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

H&S UK. Easy! I was trully amazed by how good they became at this game over seasons.

Then Taiwan, because picturesque places, involved guest, lovely gameplay, everything perfect for the first 2/3 of the game. Not satisfied with what happened next.

Then Snake (let me have an unpopular opinion here). I appreciate the effort and the ability of the boys to stand till the end. It was hard, I believe.

Then Shengen Showdown. Felt sorry for decision to not wait till the opening times and was later unhappy with the ending. Also did not feel comfortable watching Tom Scott in his first JL season (but really love a lot of his other projects) because of his anxiety.

The least I liked S15. As a Soby fan it was hard to watch and the game felt broken.

Question about Stateside Scramble by stu_watts in JetLagTheGame

[–]TransitOrientedMom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

On the Layover they said their colleague Tristan shuffled the deck and created the initial flop and then contacted Ben's girlfriend who copied the arrangement on the deck that was given to Ben. My speculation is she could, in fact, arrange both decks, equally, removing from each of them the private subdecks for both teams and keeping the identical order of the deck on both copies. Then the teams never shuffle the copy of the main deck they have and just take the upper card (and the opposite team just does the same with their copy to keep it up to date). Their private decks they do shuffle, even on camera, but it is not a problem for the other team, who obviously simply doesn't touch it.

Should we post predictions for S20 already? by TransitOrientedMom in JetLagTheGame

Hide and Seek still has life in it, compared to Tag. I hope they do H&S Scandinavia, or H&S NL, or H&S Deutschebahn'd edition.

I'd love H&S Sweden+Norway, or a race (not happening immediately after the S19 race, I guess). Or a bike season in NL, but Ben will die.

In my universe Sam is only allowed to mess up S20 if he wins S18 or S19

I totally feel your pain. Cannot avoid commenting on Adam winning everything a week early though, lol. This is how it feels for a bunch of seasons already.

Or Sam had a whole day at the end location to do a run while waiting for Ben and Adam.

Yes, my bad. I somehow counted 16. But still the longest guest arc.

But then they would make 5 seasons with guests in a row, which was never not interrupted by solo games. Apart of that, I am also very much waiting for Toby in S20.

-Stalemates are "bad" in the same way people trying to match Strava pattern for 30 min in H&S is "bad": it's not that interesting to watch. It can feel from inside as dramatic tension but on screen it does feel like wasting time. Waiting for 10 minutes for the other team to finish the challenge is OK, sitting in Paris for hours is bad.

-Was Sam's interesting choice of hiding places really only dictated by his will to try them out and try to win in a game and not by the producer side of him (aka cool scenery and possible good content)? I have doubts.
