(Correct me if I'm wrong, it usually happens 2 weeks before the airing, but Sasuke's "taping date" was the 16th.)
Well David Campbell and G4 had their trip to Japan and 22 happened a few days ago, what kinda impression do you think he made on the new course? He definitely has potential and showed he studied each stage as best he could. With all analysis aside I'm saying he made it to stage 2 and failed somewhere there. Not because I think he's incapable, but I'm suspecting the 2nd stage had a little surprise for him. But hey, I think he had what it takes to clear stage 1, yes, I know he did.

I still put 1st stage. First time out for anyone is still daunting and it's really rare for anyone to make it far there the first time. So I'm going with that.

I said stage 2 as well. It's hard to derive anything from his posts on the g4 boards, since he speaks in such general terms, but it sort of sounds to me like he was proud of how well he did, but was surprised at some of the changes to the course. He definitely has the potential to do well. I can't wait to see how well he did on the 30th.

.. really rare.. LOL I didn't say impossible. Heck there's a small list of those who made it past the first stage on their first shot. Even rare are the ones who maintain that consistency. Levi is not consistent yet.. it's only his 3rd try

He'll be in a consistent pattern if for some reason he failed the first stage this time around. 20 - 3rd (Cliffhanger) 21 - 2nd (Salmon Ladder) 22 - 1st (God only knows?) (I'm so mean today, I really don't know why.)

Or, if we're also going by at which obstacle in the stage he fails at: 20 - 3rd, 4th obstacle: Cliffhanger 21 - 2nd, 2nd obstacle: Salmon Ladder 22 - 1st, 0th obstacle: Start area...

22 - 1st, 0th obstacle: Start area... Levi "Yasuo Aoki" Meeuwenberg? Does he fall off backwards or to the side of the Start pad?

That would teach him and his backflipping showboatin' a** but I guess the salmon ladder did that job.

I've always wondered if you get disqualified for touching the water from the Waterfall XD

Doesn't exactly rule out the waterfall. 21 had some trees (not that kind but not the point) and still had the Waterfall.
Although we are due for the fire background again. 18: Fire backdrop with flamethrowers up top 19: Waterfall 20: Fire Backdrop w/ flamethrowers 21: Waterfall

Hmm could be because of the spring thing. Waterfall seems to fall (no pun intended) in the summer.

From all the hints and suggestions that people have been saying, I can honestly say that I have ALSOLUTELY NO CLUE how well people did in Sasuke 22. I had a feeling that David failed in Stage 1 but doesn't feel too bad because a lot of people failed Stage 1 (like 19, or, heaven forbid, all 100 failed). But other people seem to be suggesting that a lot of people did well, especially the all-stars. I really can't make anything of it. I'm guessing there were a LOT of stage 1 failures, including David.

How is 19 people failing first stage bad...?

Yes we will not be seeing as many pass stage 1 as Sasuke 21, and I'd actually be turned on if 2 only pass because it would be 19 all over again. 3 would not be a trip back to 19 yet not be enough passing. 4 or more clearing and I'll be happy, just that I wouldn't mind 2.

I'm hoping for seven or so. That way, we're almost guaranteed someone will make it through to the 3rd stage and it won't end like 19.
