Re: Testing - Mastermind

So this has been bugging me for two days, and I'm throwing it out there because if I don't I'll go crazy. Grant, has your word been the same throughout, because it's not making sense to me. Did you maybe make a mistake in one of the word counts, or am I missing something? Here's my logic.

FRONS is none and none, so we remove those letters from the possibilities.

ABRAH is one and none, so one letter out of position. Any but the R are possible at this point.

OBANS is one and one, so one in the correct poistion. O, N, and S are eliminated by FRONS, so either B or A is in the right spot. H from ABRAH is eliminated, as either B or A is right above.

YUAIG is two and two, so two in the correct positions. Two right here, but no eliminations yet.

YBATS is one and one. We know either the B or A is right, so the others are eliminated.

YUAFG is one and one. Compared to YUAIG, we now know I is right and in the right spot above.

TSAIH is three and two. We know from YBATS that the T and the S are wrong, so the other three must be right. But ABRAH and OBANS above eliminated the H! Here's where the logic breaks down in my head; what did I miss?

BHAIW is three and three. If the H is right, than the W is wrong. But if the H is eliminated as above, than the W is right and is right in the last spot. B is eliminated, as we know if it's right it has to be in the second slot thanks to OBANS and YBATS. A is right in the middle slot. From YUAFG, all but the A are elimintated.

FGQWI is one and none. The I is out of position, and the others are eliminated as possibilities. So again, the H must be right, but is marked wrong thanks to the ABRAH and OBANS combo.


B  C  D  E  F  G  H  I  J  K  L  M
N  O  P  Q  R  S  T  U  V  W  X  Y  Z

_ _ A I _

This is seriously bugging me. If I had to guess, I would say ABRAH should have been two and none, and the code is PHAIL. Grant, please set my mind at ease. It feels like this: http://exterminatusnow.comicge....com/d/20081213.html.

Re: Testing - Mastermind

Yeah, I musta messed up somewhere. Not sure when I forgot that the word had an H, but I did, apparently. Yes, Graham, you are correct. Now you get to start a new one! :P

Re: Testing - Mastermind

No worries, Grant. It was just bugging me, because I kept going back over it in my head and trying to find where I was making a mistake.

Anyway, NEW CODE! Feel free to start guessing.

VWXYZ -- I want some letters that I know aren't part of it so that I can start mixing them in to narrow down which letters are correct.

Re: Testing - Mastermind

Hum, usually I like puzzle games like this, I'd be interested to see it go again, perhaps. I think the problem is that they end up at the bottom during royalty wars and people forget about them.
