I put the VC on Swan who ended up with 110.  I was going to put it on Fyfe, who also got 110 anyway.  110 is a decent score for a captain, but it's at that awkward place where you just know someone else is going to beat it.  So should I keep Swan's 110 or chase a bigger score?

My other captain options are T. Mitchell, Parker, Hodge or Martin.

Take swans score

I too have Swan as vc but also have Jack Steven and I'm a greedy barbie so I'm passing on Swan hoping for bigger score

I've got the same decision. It's really in that awkward range where you'd be annoyed if you didn't take it and your Captain had a stinker but also be annoyed if you took the 110 but then your options came out and smashed a 130+.

I'm probably the same as timmy, I'm greedy for a bigger score ;)

Yeah, it's tough, but I think I'll take Swan's score.  I'm just scared someone like Parker will pump out another 160 or something insane like that.

I'm taking Swans score in AF....but had the VC on Pendles in RDT and im still considering taking 101 lol

I had Pendles. I going with one of Steven or Armo.

I would bank the 110 in your case though

I'd be more annoyed with the captain having a stinker than getting 140 and not choosing him. I'm certainly taking Swan's 110.

No damage done really.  I would have put the C on Parker had I not taken Swan's VC, and he ended up on 112, so I missed out on 4 points.

2 points

swan (c) + parker = 110×2 + 112 = 332

Parker (c) + swan = 112×2 + 110 = 334

True, I just meat straight up captain scores though.  220 for Swan and 224 for Parker.  Either way, I didn't miss out on much.
