move?

I voted for S because playing on both sides of the board seemed right.  But I actually preferred Z since it places a checker 6 pips away from a point Patti wants to keep vs S which puts a blot 6 pips away from a point she wants to clear.

Nobody else went for Z, so i voted strategically.  I'll roll it out tomorrow.

S comes out better than Z by a negligible amount. U is close behind, followed by 8 and D.
