Title: Your U-turn Strategy
Post by: Platrium on June 23, 2014, 08:58:17 AM
Some teams use their U-turn strategically. They U-turn the team behind them in a fight for last, or prevent the team behind them into catching up to 1st.
If you see a blank or half blank U-turn board, in what situation will you use your U-turn power?

Only when I know that I'm second to last and there's one more team behind me. But if it's a team that I love/like, I won't use it. LOL. I'm more emotional as a player.

AND, that's why, unless there's a team that I really do not like, then I'll use it at any one point as long as I can use it. :funny:

Use it no matter what. God knows whether there is another one, or whether it is your last day on the Race. Or even if I am first, I wanna win a leg prize. If I use it, and there is no leg prize I kill Phil xd

I'm clearly using it. Like, if it's very very early in the Race, I'd definitely consider saving it, but when it's like the Final 6, hell yes. I don't care who gets U-Turned by me, as long as I survive.

Knowing there are usually 2 of them, I would save it if I am not in a threat of being last for the first one. For the second one I would use it if I needed to get 1st or not last, but if I am not threatened, I won't use it because I don't want to burn bridges.

Oh and I would definitely use it if I am U-Turned

I would save my U-Turn Power for the second one unless I was in danger during the 1st U-Turn.

Considering every U-Turn has evolved into Double U-Turns, I would only use it in the beginning if I was in danger of being eliminated, say second to last no matter the reason why my teammate and me ended up in the placement. If there was a second Double U-Turn, I'd definitely use it if I had the chance because how many times would you ever get to handle the experience of using a U-Turn in life. :snics:

If I get U-Turned, I would hypothetically call that team out at the U-Turn sign and once Phil confirms I have survived the Leg, I'd confront that team out the next time I see them. :argue: ... just kiddin'. :lol:
