My change is intended to be from hit/most/6 to "hit/more/6." Sorry, I cut/pasted in hit/points/6 after drinking too much egg nog.
Shorter is better, as Christian pointed out in another thread. :) It takes slightly less time to say "more" or "fewer" than "most" or "fewest." Perhaps more relevantly, the "st" in the latter two words trips over the "s" in "six."
[Generally, "more" compares two, and "most" compares three or more. Usually, I'm comparing just two plays when determining the capital of a letter family, not that the difference between more and most concerns me anyway (unless someone takes me to task over it). And btw, I'm not suggesting the update of old posts solely for this subtle wording change.]
Feel free to say hit/most/6 and hit/more/6 interchangeably. I'm going to start saying the latter.
Nack
