??? The board is backwards.

How did that happen?

I'll be happy to play 11/7 here and hold the cube, but that's not how I remember the match so far...

I knew something weird had gone on..but couldnt find it in my Sunday morning daze ;)..it was something to with gnu wanting to beaver you ;) Being on move 8 wasnt feeling right all round...

Gnu always decides what the next move will be, regardless of where I leave it - and I have to take it back again - must have happened then.

I will backtrack again...

This isn't one of the rolls I was looking for, but it's not too bad. I can play it safe or slot the back of the prime. The safe play aims more ammunition directly at the blots while slotting the back of the prime gives more shakes to make a five prime (any 4 + 51 52).

I'll go for slotting the back of the prime and hope the herd doesn't shake one of the six hitting rolls. NOte that four of those six are duplicated.

10/9 8/3.
