Production

Development

The Amazing Race 12 started in Gray Cloud National Park at The Getty, an art installation in the southern portion of Gray Cloud.

An event described as "similar" to The Amazing Race was teased by McYoshi26 in a poll, stating:

"To gauge some interest - how many people would be interested in participating if I held a racing-style event that had sessions of like 4-4.5 hours on weekends, similar to how The Amazing Race was run? Haven't worked out all the details yet but hoping to get quite a bit of interest - tell your friends to give their opinion here ASAP!"

The poll received 17 "interested" votes and seven "somewhat interested" votes. The season was officially announced with a message in the #event-announcements channel in the MRT Discord on July 2, 2022.

On July 8, 2022, the first session was announced to occur on August 13, 2022. Following the first session, the second session was announced to occur as August 20, 2022. On August 17, 2022, McYoshi26 announced the final two sessions were planned to be held on September 3 and 4, 2022, pending eliminations.

The planning of the route of the season officially began on June 27, 2022, with all towns and locations visited being selected by July 1, 2022. The planning of the season was completed on July 30, 2022. An extra leg was created during the week prior to the premiere in case there was an abundance of teams at the start, which was officially added to the planned route on August 12, 2022, a day before the premiere. The new leg added three towns to the route that were not originally planned to be visited: Lanatam, Skogheim, and Kaloro City.

As seen in previous seasons, members were allowed to make guesses for the starting city. Each member had a free guess and each guess after costed money. Members were allowed to guess starting on July 15, 2022. About 30 minutes after it opened, 0x10 guessed the starting city correctly, and it was revealed that The Getty in Gray Cloud would be the starting line.

This season spanned 33 towns over two worlds, with first-time visits to the New World towns of Sansvikk, Porton, Akureyri, Weston, Lanatam, Kaloro City, Spruce Neck, MRT Land, Caravaca, Lapis Bay, Chansee, Lumia, Nymphalia, Encinitas, Malosa, Celina, and Rivarennes and the Old World city of Crystal City.

At the start of the second session, it was announced that this season would be the first to feature the Head-to-Head.

On July 31, 2022, McYoshi26 announced that, for the first time, notes would not be allowed to be used during the final leg.

Conric005 developed the second version of the Amazing Race Horse spawn eggs for the season as the first version no longer worked.

Glowbus was planned to be featured for the first time during the fifth leg by having the Double U-Turn board; however, it was cut from the route between the first and second sessions, with the U-Turn being moved to Audenville. Itokani was planned to be visited in the final leg, but was cut between the first and second sessions. Between the second and third sessions, a Head-to-Head involving PVP in Caravaca was cut and replaced with a different miscellaneous task.

Cast

The interest form, formerly known as an application, was opened on July 7, 2022, and closed on July 15, 2022. Before the premiere, 12 teams and one single were on the list to participate in the Race and all of those teams participated, with no team dropouts. The single, Minecraft252, was unable to compete due to a lack of space. As per usual, walk-ins to join the Race on the day were permitted, pending space, but none were there nor accepted.

At the Starting Line of The Amazing Race 12, which took place at The Getty in Gray Cloud, teams were faced with a Starting Line task. Teams had to remember the heads in a nearby pool and then jump off of a cliff into the water below. Then, teams had to identify the boat in the water below with a matching head. Once a team selected an answer, they must swim over to the RMS Boaty McBoatface to give their answer. It a team was the first team to give the correct answer, they received the Express Pass at the following location. If incorrect, the team received a 10-minute time penalty issued at the first Pit Stop. Regardless of whether the answer was correct, teams received their next clue instructing them to swim southeastward to shore to find Ronald Wayne Point Lighthouse. There, teams climbed to the top of the lighthouse and received three fireworks each and an elytra. Teams had to use the items to fly northeastward as close as they could to find Gray Cloud Marina to travel to Sansvikk.

In Sansvikk, teams had to find the Sansvikk MRT Himinbjorg Memorial. At the memorial, teams were instructed to make their way to the Sans Club to pick up a shulker box with a set of items to bring to the BMT 7 parking lot to copy an MRT version of Weezer's blue album using those items and armor stand tools. Once correct, teams received their next clue which instructed them to fly from Sansvikk Kamprad Airfield to Porton Regional Airfield.

In Porton, teams had to find the Porton Suburbs Public Library, where they found the first Roadblock, asking "Who's ready to give this Roadblock a shot?". Teams would make their way to The Solis Amphitheatre and have the selected team member pick up a low durability crossbow and an arrow. Both team members then made their way to the Clifftop Walk. The selected team had to shoot five chickens hanging from the hot air balloon. Each crossbow had the durability for five shots. If the selected team member needed to make another shot, they had to make their way back to The Solis Amphitheatre to pick up another crossbow. Once all chickens were shot, teams made their way to the first Pit Stop, The Porton Colossus.

Leg 2 (Porton ➝ Kazeshima ➝ Akureyri ➝ Weston)

Once found, the first team received the Fast Forward reward.

In Kazeshima, teams had to make their way to Chuokoen Torii Gate where they found the first Detour: News or Views. In News, teams had to make their way to The Epsilia Headquarters and pick up a book from a news vending machine that listed the locations of five vending machines on the island. Teams had to head to each vending machine to find the one with their next clue. In Views, teams had to make their way to the TR and Co. Zeta West Reg. HQ and head to a balcony to search the skyline using provided spyglasses to search the skyline for four signs, each with a word of the Japanese proverb "Nana korobi ya oki".

Following the Head-to-Head, teams were instructed to search Pinecone Square for their next clue hidden on a food truck, which instructed them to travel by bus to Kaloro City.

In Kaloro City, teams had to find the Mercado Express in Kaloro City West Station for their next clue, a Roadblock, asking "Who can calculate a confusing cumulative cost?". The selected team member had to make their way to a nearby market and pick up groceries that matched specifications to exactly total up to a specified budget.

In the Head-to-Head, two teams had to compete against each other in a spleef match. To win a spleef match, a team had to spleef both members of the other team while having at least one team member unspleefed. Each match lasted for a maximum of two minutes. Once the time limit was hit, the team with the most people unspleefed wins. If there were the same number of people unspleefed per team, then the team that arrived first to the Head-to-Head won the match. The team that lost the final match received an additional five minute penalty at the Pit Stop.

Following the Head-to-Head, teams were instructed to travel by MRT to Crystal City to find Dave's Donuts Stadium, where they found the Roadblock, asking "Who likes vexillology?". The selected team member had to make their way onto the field of the stadium to find a room containing the banner versions of flags of the host towns of TacoBurritoAThons: Crystal City, Laclede, Hendon, Waterville, Scarborough, Elecna Bay, Segville, Carnoustie, Bakersville, Utopia, and Whiteley.

Also the Blox Bells Amphitheatre, teams found their clue on the stage in front of a sequence of note blocks playing a tune.

The clue directed teams to fly from Venceslo-Fifth Ward International Airport to Deadbush Valletta Desert Airport. Once there, teams had to find The Great Hall of the Crackheads, where teams found a Roadblock, asking "Who's ready to face the music?". The selected team member had to make their way into the hall and find a set of note blocks that played the same tune that was played at the Blox Bells Amphitheatre in Venceslo. If the team member gave an incorrect answer, they had to destroy the note block sequence before guessing again. If correct, teams received their next clue. Teams were provided a bus that would take them near the note blocks in Venceslo, but would not be given a time credit if they opted to take it. Additionally, this Roadblock had a 30-minute time penalty for skipping it, rather than the typical 20-minute penalty.

Teams were then instructed to fly to Redwood and had to make their way to the theater inside Concord High School to find their next clue, which was the Detour: Get the Picture or Catch of the Day.
