51S, not 51D?

For Bar/20 24/23, U (for Up) is correct. S is wrong, because S means "Split-and-down." The split portion of a move means simply to move a back checker, whether it be making an anchor, breaking an anchor, or scooting a blot. In full, S means "move a checker on the far side and come down."

For Bar/24 13/8, either S or D (or Z or t or 8) is perfectly fine. I don't claim S to be better than D, but I explain why I've gotten into the habit of using S in this post.
