21 - R will work because there is nothing else that you could mean by R. However, U is correctly used when advancing no further than the bar. R is for running into the outfield. If you used R to distinquish this play (24-21) from 24-23, 24-22 that's good thinking! However, we have the symbol V (variant) to use for 24-23, 24-22. So, U is unambiguous and correct.

22 - use N (near), not O. O moves into AND out of the outer quandrant (13-11(2), 8-6(2)). Here you play to the outer board and within the inner board, the two NEAR quadrants.

22 at GS - U (Up) works and is perfectly acceptable. But, @ (anchor) is now being used which is more descriptive. You won't find @ in the most recent tutorial.

55 at DMP and GS should be N rather than O for the same reasons as 22 above.

64 H will probably not be confusing since 24-14* is the obvious play. But, note there are two blots which can be hit. R (Run) is a better choice since it is unambiguous. Strictly speaking, H could be read as hitting the blot on the two and bringing a second checker down from the mid.

The rest is good. For the most part, Nactation is easy and if you use it regularly, even the choices that seem difficult at first quickly become easy too.
