I had stumbled into hardholder.com before, but that page gives me absolutely no clues as to if moves are good and interesting and stuff and why/why not. The thread has mostly the same problem, and is less structured.
One of my options concerns mostly the people you are suspicious about being alarmed, the other one is about bystanders that might think that the Hardholder has gone too far this time. I was aiming for a split between these two, giving him a choice of priorities.
