hmm, maybe it’s the fact i’m not American and have adhd that’s causing me such issues with that. even before i knew what it was i was playing the Wikipedia game in my mind as a kid, associations & connections come incredibly easy to me, and i always see various different ways to categorise those group 16 into 4s
I would love to see you share your alternative solution to the puzzle. Partly, I’ll admit, because I’m sceptical, but mostly because I love the idea of proving the puzzlers messed up in creating their puzzle (because a well-designed puzzle should have only one possible solution).
It might also be possible, if you share that, to explain why that wasn’t the solution I came up with/why I think it wasn’t what the puzzlers intended, which might help you learn how to think like the puzzlers.
okay so i kept this message unread for a few days telling myself “yeah i’ll do that later” and- i probably won’t 😅 using creative energy for a thing that always frustrates me is something i can procrastinate until the heat death of the universe
