Good comments, Stick...thanks.

Sound advice. In this particular case the main reason I omitted the diagram was that it was flipped left-to-right, which I found slightly distracting. But I wasn't thinking about the possibility of rolling out the wrong position; if I had then I would have kept the diagram. Anyway, we can be confident that it's the correct position because you'll notice that my friend only rolled out the top two plays, and you can see that the remaining two plays still display the statistics from my original rollout with version 1.21.
