Talk:Expedition Impossible (TV series)

Prize

I don't really care that this reality-game show is only called a reality show in the article, but why aren't the prizes even mentioned?Promontoriumispromontorium (talk) 08:48, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

It's mentioned in the last sentence in the first paragraph. "Each member of the first team to cross the finish line after completing the ten stages of the competition will receive USD$50,000 and a new Ford Explorer." 07 Matthew (talk) 09:08, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

Table

Please do not unilaterally revert the table again without discussion. A single table, rather than one table for the teams and a separate table for results, is pretty standard for this type of competition show. See for example every season of The Amazing Race. Harley Hudson (talk) 00:46, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

The table, your way, is way to big and clumpy the way I do it makes it small and to the point. Let the first table tell about each team and the second table tell about how they did in the game. It just looks better! More functional.205.209.83.211 (talk) 00:55, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

"It just looks better" is a subjective opinion. I have presented 18 examples of similar articles directly on point. Please do not edit war and do not revert again without consensus. Harley Hudson (talk) 01:11, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

It is not easy to read when it is that long I advise you to change it, but I will no longer get in your way. The Amazing Race tables are not that big they are regular elimination show size.205.209.83.211 (talk) 01:14, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

You've been told repeatedly that you need to work with other editors to develop consensus, not simply try to impose your will. You have been warned twice for edit warring on this article and on several other articles as well. Please stop your disruptive editing. Harley Hudson (talk) 22:47, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

As a fellow editor of wikipedia I have to agree with the other non-user. It makes it smaller. I have also reviewed how this edit war has been going and I like his/her way better. I do think that the insults they threw at you were inappropriate though.Worstcook (talk) 23:50, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Stage Subsection Revamp

Is it possible to tabulate each stage so that it's more reader-friendly? Perhaps we can add the ratings for each episode as well. I modify the template from Prison Break (season 1). This is a sneak preview. Of course, reliable links will be added. Also, do you think the "winner" column is necessary? If everybody is okay with this, I can help tabulate all the eight stages. 07 Matthew (talk) 08:53, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

No.	Title	Winner	U.S. viewers (millions)	Original air date
1	"Sun! Sand! Sahara!"	The Gypsies	7.81	June 23, 2011
Todra Gorge Checkpoint one: Teams must traverse a tall sand dune to reach a camel outpost. Checkpoint two: Teams select three camels to carry them to the Lone Palm Camp. Challenge: "Find water the local way." Teams must fill one jug with water obtained using traditional Berber collection methods. Checkpoint three: Teams leave the camels and proceed on foot to Todra mountain. Challenge: Rappel 300 feet into Todra Gorge. Checkpoint four: Teams travel on foot to Snake Valley. Challenge: Teams watch a snake charming routine and count the number of snakes, selecting a box bearing the number of snakes they see to receive directions to the finish line. If they select a box with an incorrect number, they are sent 30 minutes off course and must repeat the challenge. Finish line.

Nobody answers me, so I go ahead and revamp that section. Hope it's okay. I also added the ratings for each of the ten episodes. Do you think we need to add some pictures to 'decorate' it? 07 Matthew (talk) 18:50, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Color of the Team

Do you think it's a good idea to label each team with color?

Team	Relationships	Position
		1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
The Gypsies	Friends	1st	1st	1st	1st	2nd	1st	1st	1st
The Football Players	College Friends	3rd	4th	4th	3rd	3rd	4th	4th	2nd
Fab 3	Siblings and Friend	2nd	5th	5th	8th	1st	2nd	6th	3rd
The Cops	Co-workers	10th	11th	8th	5th	4th	6th	5th	4th
No Limits	Friends	6th	3rd	2nd	2nd	5th	3rd	2nd	5th
California Girls	College Friends	9th	9th	7th	7th	8th	7th	3rd	6th
The Country Boys	Friends	7th	2nd	3rd	9th	7th	5th	7th
The Fishermen	Brothers and Cousin	5th	6th	10th	6th	6th	8th
New York Firemen	Co-workers	8th	10th	6th	4th	9th
Team Kansas	Sisters	4th	7th	9th	10th
Grandpa's Warriors	Family	12th	8th	11th
Mom's Army	Mom and Daughters	11th	12th
Latin Persuasion	Friends/Co-workers	13th

• A red team placement means the team was eliminated.

Okay, I changed the table to the one with color and apparently some anonymous user reverted it by giving the reason: "silly color". :( 07 Matthew (talk) 16:46, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

I change the background color to color box. 07 Matthew (talk) 19:01, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
