OLM Whatever day it is

Thanks for fulfilling my request (and then I don't get my vote in on time because I make a whirlwind 15 hour trip to Chitown on Thursday).

I don't think we want to start building our board from the lowpoints out. I guess it's between the very racy 20/8(2) the racy+blocky 20/14(2), 13/7(2), and the army splitting 13/7(4).

(Well, I've already seen the results....) Note we can't block Kit's big doubs any better by making the two new points than by just running all the way. (We can make 4-4 a little harder to clear on later rolls.) 13/7(4) just seems a little too committal, although big doubs play and that is what will cause us to want to race. There is the overrated "outfield control" issue, though. Probably worth enough to choose a not-so-awful alternative.

Being the contrarian, I guess I'll run: 20/8(2). Better to have a good racing position than a mediocre racing position + mediocre blocking position, I guess.
