Michael will be streaming Starline Hill again today at 8pm ET on Twitch! Here is a clip from the last stream where Michael demonstrates the utility of passing early, despite the option to pass usually only being employed in the endgame.

A small update regarding our Boston FIG award from last month-

We actually won "Most Innovative Design" (not "Most Create Theme"). There was a small mix-up with trophies, but we're still very honored to receive this award!
