In Response To: One more request (Chuck Bower)

My mind went 38,80,20,30,75 in about 3 seconds and OTB I'm done with the problem while giving the dice a couple extra shakes on a normal day, pausing a bit if I am a bit rusty counting (noting that I only play online or big live T's events, except for a couple times a year so I often am a bit rusty counting early in an event)and without breaking rolling tempo if really in the zone and also having started my comparison and some of the count while opp was finishing his move and hitting his clock.

Note that this is a trivially easy position to comp-count. If you made it more difficult, A few seconds extra will tick off my clock prior to rolling the dice, or I won't make a complete comparision since it hardly matters here. If it does matter..ie complete race looking like I am near a double, then I certainly take a full comparision and keep a running count of difference, and I may even take a full pip count (easy to cluster count most of it when checkers all on your side of board) and keep running counts.
