In Response To: Rollout: Blitz cube action (Timothy Chow)

I wonder how many readers assume that because the score is 4a2a and the position is posted on BGO, it must be a double, and proclaim that it's a double even though they wouldn't double OTB.

My hunch is that it's about equal to the number who see the 4a2a score and think that it must be a hold due to QF. (c:

And as for the difference betwen OTB and forum posts I'm quite sure you could take the 5 pint match I just finished on FIBS, give me a week to forget about it, and then find 10 positions where I'll advocate something different than my OTB if you post it here. And if you wait another six months and re post it them on RGB, I'll probably find a third play. Context matters, and while I try to ignore QF the forums are different than actual play.
