GYK2: Do NOT try to capture the 2nd point first in battle

Sorry if this has been noted before. But in the first battle I found the "2nd" flag first by going up and around. I placed the flag there like it told me to and....nothing happened, the entire round it did not capture and I lost. You are required to go in the order they predict you'll go in otherwise the points won't capture. Hope this helps someone avoid my mistake.
