Can I make someone turn around in Minecraft using Command Blocks?
I am Building an archery range in Minecraft. When the person Hits the bullseye, I want a command block command make them turn around (look away from the target). This is so they can't cheat and keep scoring by keeping the same direction.

There is indeed a way to do this with the new command blocks as mentioned by MBraedly. SethBling did a very nice cover of all the new command block neatness in one of his snapshot previews and shows one that makes you spin around. Find the video here:
The new features to the tp command are what you are after, about 4:30 in the video and it is as @MBraedley mentioned, adding in the heading and pitch values to it.
/tp @p ~ ~ ~ [heading]
The ~ are XYZ shorthand for where you currently are, for heading values use the ones displayed in the F3 overlay text. And I think that will take care of your needs.

Command blocks always point towards you, and if the arrows are pointing in the wrong directions, the command won't run.Are command blocks directional?
You cannot. There are various commands that are unavailable, probably due to the ability for abuse (such as reopping yourself after having your admin privileges revoked).3 Deadly Command Blocks (Minecraft PE)
