I wouldn't know the EPC, but even if I did, it wouldn't
seem like take territory.

worse than the real Isight method) EPC approximation from my article
(page 20):
EPC(X) = 20 + 5 + 2*1 + 1*1 + 1*3 - 1 = 30 (exact 30.86)
EPC(O) = 21 + 5 + 2*0 + 1*2 + 1*4 - 0 = 32 (exact 31.94)
Point of last take is:
30 + 30/8.167 - 3 = 30.67 < 32 => Drop
Even with exact EPCs, the point of last take is:
30.86 + 30.86/8.167 - 3 = 31.67 < 31.94 => Drop
That's how it goes ...
