Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The board starts at `45 MOVES` and `0/11` with four colored locks. Visible anchors include `DRAFT / GUST`, `CUMULUS / NIMBUS / CIRRUS / STRATUS`, `RUBY / EMERALD / SAPPHIRE`, `DUNE / OASIS`, and `HYDRO / GEOTHERMAL / SOLAR`.
- Goal
- Remove the compact opener families so the lock releases do not mix unfinished clouds and gems with late costume, discussion, and compound-word anchors.
- Opening
- The video clears `MIDNIGHT / DAWN / DUSK / NOON`, follows with `DRAFT / GUST / GALE / ZEPHYR`, and then resolves the desert and gemstone branches.
- Danger Zone
- After the locks open, `CLOAK / WIG / MASK / COSTUME`, `DEBATE / ARGUMENT / DIALOGUE`, and `COLOR / CUT / CARAT / CLARITY` share the center.
- Mechanics
- An eleven-group, four-lock release board that shifts from complete knowledge sets into short compound-word anchors.
