Just like last week they are doing 2 hours on them on G4. I'll create a thread for the Monday, NBC Semi's. Please keep Midwest prelims on this thread only. Don't bring up Southwest regionals into discussion here. Keep that on those threads. REMINDER: There are people who did not read the respective spoiler threads from when the competition was taped.. please do not include information from that thread here. Stick to the episode shown. Last reminders of course that all of this thread is a spoiler thread for what is shown on G4's broadcast.

I'm so excited! Hope they show me...not for the vanity of being shown (ok, for that a little) but for the signal they are investing in my "character" and I'll get to compete again next season even with the wave of 23 year old stuntmen/parkour-pros that will come flooding in!
I can't believe that after all these years I am now just getting over to the SMF side of the world. I'm a little slow on the uptake some time!

Didn't realize it was you at first. This is Jordan Cowart.

Anyway, watch this region guys. Both Matt and I competed in it. Unless I missed something, don't you have to be at least 21 to compete Badalight? IIRC you're only 19 or 20, and I don't remember anything about them allowing anyone ( other than those 2 guys on YouTube) to run the course just for fun in any of the locations. I haven't kept too up-to-date with the ANW4 threads, so I apologize in advance if I missed something relating to this. In either case, I'm really looking forward to tonight's episodes. Hopefully it doesn't get too drawn out and/or repetitive, but hopefully we do see a lot of exciting runs!

He competed as his brother, he told this plan back when the regionals were announced, he just went through with it. BTW sorry bada if I wasn't supposed to tell them that lol Anyways as for the broadcast... if anyone is streaming, could they also stream the repeats or record the stream for fast upload? I may have to miss the eps first showing >_<

As for the upcoming broadcasts, I have no idea about streaming, but links for downloading recordings should be available you-know-where within a day or two. I wish I could help more, but that's all I've got...

Dear G4, It is not a legal requirement for every competitor to to have an "inspirational story." Just in case you were not aware. You're truly, -SolidGoldenMonkey

NO WAY! When introducing the obstacles for the Midwest Finals, they called the Lamp Grasper by its proper name instead of the "Globe Grasp".

Yeah, sucks I wasn't shown. If any of you want to see my run, it should be in the secret place (I think?) If not I'll post a link when i upload it.
Editing on this episode wasn't all that great, only 2 quad step fails, 1 bridge of blades fail, 1 jump hang fail, and the rest were the last 2 obstacles. In reality, the jump hang eliminated the most people and led to the coolest wipeouts, so I'm not sure why they put so much emphasis on the curtains and the wall.
Cool to see everyone again though, on TV.
