Where would you place this pill? [IMG]http://i68.tinypic.com/15oyn0y.png[/IMG]
maybe I would suggest the abbreviation format to be: | = Vertically _ = Horizontally (intead of using h and v)
|br6 = vertically, blue on top, red on bottom, 6th column from the left.
_br6 = horizontally, blue on the left, red on the right, 6th and 7th columns from the left.
I agree with hyb2 there is no other choice that makes sense really. A red-yellow would have been a interesting choice between vry8 and hry4. Knowing the 3rd pill would be very usefuss to where to place that double yellow but without the knoeledge, I rather play the double yellow on vyy7. I want to keep alive the possible double yellow combo in column 5 and it create another spot for red-blues. The next double red needs to be placed at vrr1 at all costs.
What's your reasoning behind the vyy2 play? Clearing the yellow garbage as soon as possible?
I realize that I might have an irrational tendencies to clear garbage as soon as possible, I should just consider garbage as "new" virus. vyy7 would make more sense.
If it was a Red-Yellow, I'm not sure if I understand your point. Do you mean hyr7 and vry5?
With this exact setup, I do 100% of the times vry8 vyy5 for the yellow T. It's just too good. And after that you have spots for every type of pill including blue-yellow that wasn't the case before the T.
After that I try I hope to undig yellow asap. If the game gives you yellows too early, you breakeven on the play. If the game likes you, you just saved a good 2-3 seconds.
Wow I see! Thanks! I have so much to learn from these questions. I really have to learn to clear more virus horizontally. I would probably have played a much inferior _ry4 or _yr7 without even considering the powerful |ry8-|yy5 sequence.
Without the double yellow in the cue, vry8 is just too risky because you don't have a spot for blue-yellow anywhere. I would probably go with a safer play like hyr8 toward creating a spot for blue-yellow.
And as a sidenote, the reason why I place the next double red no matter that on vrr1 is because depending on the pill order, you might have a problem by having 3 columns with a top-red virus, which is a futur problem to think about.
