In Response To: Mochy's blunder 05 (mochy)

Any play not making the 5 point is defensive in nature and further divides our forces. Making the 5 point leaves direct 1s and lots of indirect shots. The risk of getting hit (21 numbers?) means that there are 3 (or more) checkers back. Bad for the race, good for anchoring. The reward of making the 5 looks to outweigh the cost of being hit.
