Well, herd danced again with 4-6, but now things get more...interesting. Bet you will regret that last move now  ;)



Never give up on the things that make you smile

Yep, moving up the straggler would have been the right thing to do.  By moving it up, you kill 6s and give yourself 5s to escape - both 5s and 6s play well; leaving it where it is means you need a 6 to escape while 5s force you to play in your home board, so  6s play well but 5s don't.
