The forum played 24/15 last turn, now it's roadkillbooks (white) with a 6-5 to play:

20/15, 21/15..next..finally I get to move but this  almost seems like a forced move.  Nothing else makes sense.

Thanks for the quick response. I thought you might like to speak out for a move, but I had almost nexted it indeed.  ;)

Someone might argue 13/2 so you may have the double shot at the blot next time, or whatever. But obviously nothing beats a solid outfield point.

If I were going to argue for an alternate move it'd be 21-16, 13-8. Making the outfield point comes close to TMP, but I'd probably do it too.
