FF's throw off the count sometimes as well.

I think it is still 50% +/- one....

Despite the fact I can't see due to the country restriction, here are the two vids nyoman_sb1 found on YouTube:

Just for the record, the airing of Season 21's U-turn elimination of Abbie and Ryan in Amsterdam was on November 25th, after TAR22 had left LA.  So our teams would not have known about that cleaver tactic unless they invented it on their own.  In fact, it did not air until TAR22 was on its way to Botswana!

Both videos are pre-Bali or in Bali, they are giving us some of the Racer's plans on what they will do or not do if there is a U-turn in that leg.

Doesn't necessarily have much to do with the Hanoi leg.

I'm curious to see if Connor looking off Pam's answer at the roadblock will affect their u-turn agreement.

Does Pam knows he looked at it? I don't think so.

From the first video:
Basically Dave & Connor, Pam & Winnie and Caroline & Jennifer agree not to U-Turn each other because they're all in first... Max & Katie aren't there but it sounds like they're part of this agreement. And then Dave decides to ask if they'll let him take the fast forward? :groan: I can't tell if this fast forward talk is for future legs or this leg... These 4 teams have a 4 hour lead (according to Pam... or is it Winnie?).

From the second video:
Katie says that they have about a 3-4 hour lead over the back 4 or 5 teams (she doesn't know that it was an elimination leg). The first 4 teams agreed not to U-Turn each other if it's not a blind U-Turn. That way, the last 4 teams will have the U-Turns to use on each other. If it's a blind U-Turn, they decided to use the U-Turn on John & Jessica and Joey & Meghan. Max & Katie think that Joey & Meghan are sneaky and they want to break up their "little crew".

It is all for Bali, has no relevance here... they thought there might be a U turn there. Just gives you an idea of the splits that leg.

The search for the phrase seems to be just a route task. They are holding route info.

since i was new in this forum...  :hello2:

somehow i think that the human chess thing is a FF since it's kinda hard and imbalanced with the other option
( i mean playing chess is already hard, but plus real people, and in vietnam? i don't think it would be easy  :ascared)
what do you guys think?

and i'm sorry for my english, i'm still trying to be good at it  ;)

Welcome to RFF, raynald! :hello2: It's awesome to see more Indonesians in here! :hearts:

Currently we still speculate that the human chess is a part of a Detour challenge, and there's no proof that it's a Fast Forward challenge, anyway. ;)
