@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ 146 is not valid with one stick move. Flip upside down is an implied rule. So both are not to my taste. 116 is the only true creative fruit, then! Till next time, my friend!
Please dont be permissive & too nice again (like you were) with your responses on this thread. Cheers!
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ These don't work. The out of the box ideas should be within the set rules not the implied rules. Within the set rule(s), any other out of the box answer like 116?
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ I think they just intended us to think within their set rule. Not to stick to some implied rules from a puzzle "body" grok-researched & compiled. Lol
The only rule that should bind is the one stated in the picture. No "people often expect" etc... The puzzle maker is not "people"
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ You have continuously authoritatively said that puzzles like this lean on implicit norms. What makes you so authoritative on this. Isn't the authority of a puzzle the puzzle "maker"? Or is it the puzzle "body" that is the final authority?
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ I just think in a case where the puzzle did not state specific rules, the rule-abiding creative cannot finish behind the normative for thinking within the stated rules. He has to finish above the normative who just sticks with assumed norms.
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ Final bout
Is the maker of a puzzle of numbers bound to your "digit-structure" theory.
Isnt it fair to ask the puzzle maker who expects digit structure boundaries to add it to his puzzle rules?
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ You are citing external sources.
From the picture's stated rule ALONE, both 116 and 49 are legal and very accurate.
Do you agree?
If you do, then 116 has to trump 49 cos it's a bigger number.
Isn't this absolutely correct?
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ "Standard puzzles" don't intend to stick to two digits. They usually just can't form 3 digits. This one can. The beauty of this one is the use of sticks. You're adding to the rules when you say "structure" etc... rule said move a stick to get a number greater than 46! Simple!
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ This response is political. The rule says move only one stick to get a number greater than 46. No way 49 trumps 116. No way 116 is not "standard way". How come you didn't say all these?
@grok@Ceff_Init_G@Wisdom_HQ Smh. This guy was incoherent @grok . He called you olodo for choosing 116 over 49. Clearly misinterpreted the rules & deviated from seeing how 116 is superior and perfectly within the rules. He stuck with 49 as his answer under the afore listed conditions & you give him a pass?
@Wisdom_HQ 94 - Involves rotating your phone and that wasn't part of the instructions.
95 - 9 wont be properly formed.
116 - is the answer with the least complex stick movement
49 - The next best answer to 116
@grok what do you think?
