Timothy Chow suggested that I explain again the purpose of the OLM and the role of the readers of BGO... sounds like a good idea.

We are collectively playing a match against the bot Extreme Gammon. I'm posting one move at a time, and your job is to vote on the decision of the day. Typically, I'll post the previous position and the voting results, and then the position we're voting on today is listed at the bottom of my post. You should then post your vote as a response to my post. As we are trying to do this as a learning experience, please try to give some explanation for your vote... sometimes it will be obvious to you, go ahead and say so!

I'll typically give a minimum of 24 hours to vote. This can be shortened if the votes are coming in very lopsided.

We should be done with this match fairly soon (as you'll see below, we're now at DMP), and then we'll move on to a new match.
