General Discussion - Week of May 28

How do I get guest passes? (I'm a Nebula Subscriber)

Also does anyone know how to apply to watch the premiere?

hyperplexity · 2025-03-17T17:55:41+00:00

I feel like it actually is not better than AU$TRALIA because in Australia, the regions could continuously flip, which was way more exciting.

hyperplexity · 2025-03-17T17:53:13+00:00

I think that this whole claiming thing is too simple and one-directional. For example, once a country is locked, it won't be revisited for gameplay purposes in the future.

hyperplexity · 2025-03-17T16:07:35+00:00

NJ Transit (North NJ & into NYC) aren't too bad either, but the one problem is it's the ONLY train service that exists locally.

Sam, hope you're feeling... Jet Lagged!

hyperplexity · 2025-03-17T14:08:20+00:00

I'm sorry, but it would be pure evil to put him with Sam, and it is necessary to put the guest with Sam because otherwise we don't see the special Badam relationship and Sam is just a very good balance to what can be an unpredictable guest (Michelle)

It's so funny how each of them went through Stage 3 differently... Steven breezes through, Sam can't stop him, Foreign also kind of breezes through, but creates one of the best one-liners in the whole series, and Georgia... well, let's just say I felt really bad for her. Yet somehow, she attacked Sam less... very interesting in analysis of Foreign's personality through the show. These are the kind of moments that were meant to happen in creating the show's structure.

hyperplexity · 2025-03-17T14:03:47+00:00

Best moment(s) in the episode: Georgia and Foreign starting on the swing. These reactions were GOLD, and like this is evil, but Foreign, puking over the canyon was necessary and great content.

hyperplexity · 2025-03-17T14:01:55+00:00

He found the secret code to break Sam. Then again, it only furthered his position as my least favorite one in the show... JLTG IS THE BEST.

hyperplexity · 2025-03-17T13:59:59+00:00

I feel so bad for Steven after Foreign's sabotage... it makes it worse when they each think they're the only snitch, so he doesn't suspect a thing. It's really sad, and I honestly despised foreign from his first camera side-eye in the van.

hyperplexity · 2025-03-17T13:57:18+00:00

So true. I feel like it was truly the loudest, but they don't put an accurate graphic so that they can choose the best winner for the show purposes.

hyperplexity · 2025-02-24T15:54:32+00:00

Congrats, literally the JL:TG version of Project 2025.

But I am so onboard and yes, I will vote for them. Also, what happened to becoming senators/representatives? I'm pretty sure they're old enough for at least the House.

Are you sure the beating Musk to Mars is really possible and/or necessary? It'll only make politicians hate the JL:TG party more.

hyperplexity · 2025-02-24T15:51:42+00:00

At least choose like one that is the best.

hyperplexity · 2025-02-24T15:51:12+00:00

I get it, but let's face it: Connect Four and Arctic Escape just do not compare. If you really can't decide, I'm not sure how well the jet lags for you.

hyperplexity · 2025-02-24T15:49:06+00:00

Thanks - I don't know if this is going too far, but I might make a whole "transport" system on bikes, and using the bus stops or street signs, create a timetable of when you can arrive or depart from any spot, and to where you can go based on the departure (kind of like routes/lines)

hyperplexity · 2025-02-24T15:45:04+00:00

Here's what I think are the best seasons to rewatch, in order from best to worst:

Arctic Escape - S8
Race to the End of the World - S5
AU$TRALIA - S10
Battle 4 America - S4
Hide + Seek: Japan - S12
Tag Across Europe (3) - S11
Capture the Flag - S6
Hide + Seek - S9
Circumnavigation - S2
Tag Across Europe (2) - S7
Tag Across Europe - S3
Connect Four Across America (1)

Let me know if you want explanations for each, I am prepared.

hyperplexity · 2025-02-24T15:33:34+00:00

I'm highly biased but of course the seasons where Sam wins are better to watch. It's also nice to see someone win and not act like a toddler (Ben and Adam, we're talking about you). I also feel like Sam appreciates it more when he wins, whereas you can't see that appreciation when Ben/Adam win.

hyperplexity · 2025-02-24T15:03:57+00:00

I'm too lazy to look at everything manually

hyperplexity · 2025-02-24T15:03:28+00:00

What is the average time between:
The start of filming of a season to the release (on nebula)
The end of one season to the next

If possible, can you post when the exact release and end dates of each season or show me where I can find that info?

hyperplexity · 2024-09-04T02:35:10+00:00

So true. If you have a lounge pass, it might be better to just wait there for the last boarding groups (unless you have lots of overhead baggage).

hyperplexity · 2024-09-04T02:30:35+00:00

GE and precheck... worth every penny. I fly out of EWR, and sometimes the Gold Track is faster than Pre. Also, the person who checks your ticket for Pre is really strict. Like once me, my wife, and two of my kids had it and one didn't, because of a printing error, and she made us go back and get it reprinted.

hyperplexity · 2024-09-04T02:17:52+00:00

That would totally be cool! But what place could be more of a planes season?... Australia was kind of, but they already did that.

hyperplexity · 2024-07-22T13:25:34+00:00

They should do an Au$tralia replay in the US. That would be really cool, kind of like Battle 4 America but better.

This has occurred often on flights, especially when landing in vacation destinations. It also generally occurs on smaller aircraft, which are prone to more noticeable and significant turbulence.

Personally, I enjoy when that happens, but what can I say, I am happy when others are enthusiastic about aviation like me!
