Final time this season doing this. Not sure if I'll do it again next season. Also, "Just two ninjas have won the $1 million on Stage 4". I guess they've officially struck winner #2 from the history books. Weren't the two Isaac and Drew? Daniel Gil is a "winner," but if memory serves, that was on the unusual Season 12, and he only won 100K, not one million. Who is the third million dollar winner that I'm forgetting? I thought Gil was considered the second winner that they mentioned, didn't remember that he "only" won $100,000 and therefore didn't "win $1 million on Stage 4". I didn't have a problem one way or another, just thought it was something worth noting.

That’s one of the things I dislike about the show the most. They don’t really emphasize these changes that a viewer couldn’t tell the difference with. You just assume it’s the exact same obstacle as previous. Same with the ultimate cliffhanger. Might be the exact same layout but the ledges can be different sizes from previous years. Agreed, but I think this is largely because the changes are normally done to “secretly” make something easier.

That is not true. Season 8 it was changed to 80 ft, then on Season 11 it was changed back to 75 ft. Actually that 80ft was from Season 9 (remember the one in USA vs The World where Sean Bryan faced against someone from EU team, the course used was from ANW9). That height was kept for Season 10 (you may have seen the fight between who shouldn't be metioned and someone from Australia team), before like the latter of your sentenced, decreased back to 75ft from Season 11. Sorry yes, 9. Was a typo on my part.

Also the brittian guy he was the first to beat the tower but did it slower than Isaac.

Matt said only 2 ninjas have ever won the million dollars. Going into Stage 4, he said before that night we've had 5 ninjas total in 13 seasons make it there. So... What? It’s true. Why wouldn’t they say that? I was just making an observation that they're keeping the numbers. We know the network can be weird with record keeping and editing, with or without a criminal involved. Weren't the two Isaac and Drew? Daniel Gil is a "winner," but if memory serves, that was on the unusual Season 12, and he only won 100K, not one million. Who is the third million dollar winner that I'm forgetting? I don’t think (like I’m 99.99% sure) you’re missing anything. I’ve noticed a weird trend where people like to mention how Drew counts/doesn’t count/shouldn’t count where it’s not relevant. Also don’t understand the argument of claiming they should change the number of winners when they don’t even reference him by name. Seems like people getting worked up over nothing TBH. For me, it's less about what people might be arguing about and more seeing how the network actually goes about it each season. They might still count it now even not mentioning his name, but they can just as easily decide in the future to pretend the win never happened and throw out revised numbers in the middle of a season. I personally think they should keep it.
