When a Link-O tile is placed in a in a space other then a connector space does the value of the title have to be the same for both side of the time or does it take on the value of the tiles on either side?

Can you play a link tile anywhere on the board? And can you place a link tile in a link spot if it is not connected to another tile

My husband and I disagree as to whether you count your tiles and add the opponents (if you win the round) to your tiles score left in your hand. OR are the numbers in each person's hand just to judge who won and only the opponents number is what the winner scores.

What number value is a Link-o tile when you first play it as your starter tile? It does not let you know in the instructions.
