This seems to be a topic that very few around here see the importance of. The only people that I see take this into account when acting are the 'big names' of the forum, and a few other newer people that really have built their skills before joining (storms/dbitel). I think a discussion is needed in order to make people more aware of exactly how targetted your aggression should be towards dead money.
To start things off, I'm going to point out a situation where there is a lot of dead money and let people decide what to do in our position. Whether or not we should be moving in situations like this, or not. And why.
