Thanks for the link and your thoughts regardings these puzzles - definitely some food for thought. @45:00 Yep, it is a blunder ;) @45:34 instant broad smile … It was that obvious what they had in mind ;)
I'd go for nigirippe's farmer move. It has two connecting tiles and the monastery is with extra value. Oppo only has the splitter to block. I'm likely to get back meeple soon from any of the curvy tiles. It also prevents oppo from taking the farm or extend his. Some great puzzles, and thanks for letting us know about the site!
The last puzzle was a pain for me (my game vs Kithara). I had in the next dorito and didnt get any cap to close :D. I lost the game and the score was pretty close, something around 5 points. This move was strong but the move with the farmer was also interesting
17:46 I was really surprised that you didn't take that road, actually. There's an aditional value. If the opponent gets say a dorito with road or a left handed dagger, they will try to get a 4 point loop. By taking the road you anticipate that and you can complete the 4 point loop either from your side or the opponent's side.
What a great resource, thanks for sharing it! Time to start a new daily puzzle quest :D

Nice video!
I couldn't think of your move for the last puzzle(Outrageous Damage Control). It's amazing how quickly you noticed the best move.
