TAR 18 Ep 5 "Don't Ruin the Basketball Game" (Kunming, China)

<< < (15/62) > >>

Prophet:
Are they doing the roadblock at the famous Stone Forest?

Jobby:
Ron and Chris supposedly check in 7th next leg, at first i thought Margie and Luke could have W-TURN them. But right now, we have Kent and Vyxsin at the W-TURN with a completely empty W-TURN sign. That means... Margie and Luke don't use their W-TURN? Might be good strategy too, since there may be another U-TURN that they're saving up for. Margie and Luke might have known that they have a considerable amount of lead over other teams who may be... on another train few hours back behind them since they are in the lead and should know whether any team has overtake them or not.

Okay, i just want to ask another question.. sorry if this has been asked.. but i don't think all the teams take the same train into Kunming right? I have been running through the thread this leg and see no mention of different trains timing. I don't think we know... right?

Prophet:
According to this picture, Margie and Luke DID NOT U-Turn anyone! Unless this picture has been airbrushed, of course. It looks as thought Kynt and Vxysin U-Turn Jaime and Cara as they are standing right there with them!

As far as I know, no one knows how many trains go back to Kunming.

north09:
It does look like the K/V U-Turn J/C right in front of them. I can actually see why they would do it with the luck they've been having and fear that they might be given a penalty for not taking the mandatory flight. Also, the last time they used a U-Turn it was on a team that had already passed them on a leg after they were spared elimination.

Jobby:
I know Kent and Vyxsin are definitely in front of Jaime and Cara and has high possibilities of W-TURN them. But i don't think we should speculate.. it's just like few hours back we saw Luke and Margie "first" at the W-TURN and also thought they could be using it on one other team.. turns out that if the screencap above is right, Margie and Luke didn't W-TURN anyone.

The only thing it's safe to say is Jaime and Cara can W-TURN another team if Kent and Vyxsin indeed used the W-TURN on them. However, they will have to figure out who's BEHIND them. So it's all fair and square. Yes/No? And of course, there can be this possibility that there are no more teams behind Jaime and Cara. Which this then defeats the purpose of the W-TURN since 2 teams are supposed to be W-TURN.
