In Response To: Variant --- 4-ply/XGR+ RO (Petter Bengtsson)

Just a suggestion for next time you do a variant esp. this kind of position but it would also be better to make it a money game or at least a long match score. Nobody cares (do they?) in general for learning purposes about what the actual correct play at 5a 5a with a turned cube. We care about the overarching principals without any noise like gammon or backgammon values coming into play. (or semi dead/dead cubes)
