Why? I find Speed bumps are harder, because you have no control. At least with MFE, all you need to do is just be like 35 minutes in front of another team and you survive...
Theo:
I like Speedbump, but not with the ridiculous task like unkink the rope or sitting in the ice or like that. The Speedbump task should be like solving the puzzle in Malawi or serving the holy water in India or doing yoga :lol:
Zack.:
As a racer, I'd say having my money taken. This sort-of gets into the metagame of TAR, but given the prevalence of bunching through nonstandard pit stops designed to get teams on the same flight(s) out, I'd probably be able to get enough money to get by until the next destination.
As a viewer, extra tasks have the potential to be interesting (holy water in India, dancing in Russia).
Cocoa:
I like the MFE better. It adds a whole new level of stress to the race. I don't see that in Speed Bumps.
theschnauzers:
I prefer the original approach. No penalty at all. (An option not offered in the poll.)
