The Amazing Rush: Indonesia


2010
01.25

The following post will be made in Bahasa, so if some of you doesn’t understand it, learn Bahasa. :P

Judulnya apaan sih? The Amazing Rush? Kok kayak The Amazing R*** yap? *silahkan tebak sendiri, harusnya gampang :P *

Emang, ini kita semacam copasdit (copy paste edit) dari The Amazing Race (beh, awalnya disensor sekarang malah ditulis gede2) dan ditujukan bagi orang-orang Indonesia yang belom pernah ikutan The Amazing Race Asia (yang US jelas gak mungkin lah), dan yang mau ikutan The Amazing Race Asia 4, tapi sampe sekarang belom dikasitau kapan pengumuman casting The Amazing Race Asia 4. Singkatnya, ini ditujukan buat penggemar The Amazing Race dan penggemar travelling nekat.

Secara orang Indo satu-satunya yang baru ikut adalah The M & M  Brothers (you-know-who), aka Mardy and Marsio, maka kita tentu sangat berduka cita dong, masa orang Indo yang baru ikut TARA cuma 2 orang? Oh wait, masih ada Brett and Kinar (meskipun ga bisa dibilang ikut sih, kalahnya aja malu2in :hammer: ). OK, anyway.

Purpose of this post? Nyari orang2 yang mau bantuin :hammer:

Jujur aja, kita short of people. Jadi ya… butuh bantuan gitu :P

Terus yang mau ikutan, gimana caranya?

Well… tunggu pengumuman berikutnya. Setidaknya sampai kita selesai mendesain semua task dan challenge, serta dapet izin dan tanggal yang pas. Mungkin ada casting *jiaaaahhh*, ato first come first serve basis. BTW, yang mau ikut tampaknya mesti bayar, soalnya kalo gratis jelas almost impossible lah :P

OK, segini dulu post nya, see ya soon!

Lessons I’ve Learned from MatiBeku.com

First of all, this blog got a new Page. A new DIY The Amazing Race page! Basically, I’m just copying it from the now-defunct-part-of-geocities-site, and adding some topics like the U-turn, and I’ll be updating the page with another tasks such as speed bump (maybe possible in some large race), and some more pictures to show.

And, main part. I’ve learned something, as the admin and creator of the MatiBeku.com. Here it is, the rules of how do you survive in first 13 levels in MatiBeku.

  • Read the manual. A lot of people simply asks at the contact page, “hey how to fill the stars”, or, “how do you answer?”, or, “the page is broken, there is no form to submit the answer”. And here’s mine: your head’s freakin’ broken. read the manual, again. a lot, if you want to.
  • Google it. Wikipedia it. Search somewhere. Here’s the first thing. A lot of people simply asks at the contact page, and reply the post on the forum, and asks, “how do you open the source code?”, or the worst part: “please tell me the answer. I don’t know what a hexadecimal color is.” And I tell you, GOOGLE IT! A lot of people simply doesn’t know, or doesn’t want to know how to find something on google. I tell you. Screw you. Just search on the net.

This looks like a bad post, really sorry, but I should let people know, right?

OK, time to go. Ja na~

If The Amazing Race is visiting Indonesia, how would you create the challenges?

Yup, that’s the question that pops my mind when I didn’t feel like cubing right now (oh yeah, now I’m playing Rubik’s Cube), because my cube just feels like… shrinking.

Is it shrinking?

Is this cube, my cube, shrinking?

OK, forget about the cube. Let’s talk about what if TAR visits Indonesia in one leg.

If I were the one to create the leg, I will make it somehow like this:

1. Somewhere to Jakarta, Indonesia. Go to Melawai, and eat 6 spicy bakso soup (meatball soup) with your partner.

2. Detour: Old or New?

Old: Go to Museum Fatahillah, and locate an item based from a picture. If you found it, tell the guard, and receive the next clue.

New: Go to Grand Indonesia Shopping Town, and watch the fountain with the lighting effect in the Crossroads of the World. Once the fountain show’s finished, find a certain man near the fountain show to receive the next clue.

3. Go to Yogyakarta by Bus (mwahahahahaha)

4. Go to Malioboro Street, and search for your next clue in front of Pasar Beringharjo

5. Roadblock: Who’s ready for window-shopping some clothes?

Locate a stall in Pasar Beringharjo, and find the clue in the stack of Batiks. (there are some stalls that provide the clue, and each stall only has a clue)

6. Pit stop: Candi Borobodur.

Enjoy the race, it’s going to be very tiring race :P
