At this point you've basically just restated your opinions. Let's just agree to disagree. On one point I must say something though. I did not "just get lucky" when I solved those puzzles. I followed EXACTLY the hints I outlined and that is what solved it. I didn't just randomly wander around, I DID follow the train of logic. When you claim "you just have to get really lucky", the way you come across is like you're saying you know my experience playing the game better than I do, that I was somehow "mistaken" to ever think I put clues together, and really, I MUST have just randomly guessed to do it. That may not be your intention, but this is how it comes across.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
