You don't have to be bordering the state to gobble it.

(4) Points are used in one of three ways: (a) gobble attempt on an adjacent state – each point spent is worth a 20% chance of success; (b) gobble attempt on a non-adjacent state (also known as an “indirect gobble”) – each point spent is worth a 10% chance; (c) counter-gobble – each point subtracts 5% from any gobble attempts against the state. IMPORTANT: If no one posts for a state all of its points are used for counter-gobbling as its default turn.
