It was more a fact that if you change it to your color and they will change it to blue next turn anyways, will it be worth it? but thanks for that

If you've captured the space (changed it to your color) they will not be able to recapture it in one turn. The first turn they occupy it will merely return it to grey, so that will be one more turn that they will missing their extra wit.

Sorry to say this but that's definitely wrong, you do recapture an opposite colour space in 1 turn or 'rotation'.I've counted my wits in the past to test it and you do get an extra wit, even though it changes your colour at the same time as rewarding wits to you

I think you guys are saying the same thing, but orwell counts turn as just one person going, necro counts turn as each player going once (a rotation/cycle). So two "orwell" turns = one "necro" turn.

In general, any wit spaces which are your color at the start of your turn (before you used any wits) will give you a bonus.
