Well we've only got 4 Ls left, so we need to put two in each envelope if we're to have any hope of getting over 1/2.

so (LL) - (LL) and FFFFFFFFFF to go between them

my instinct is (LLF) and (LLFFFFFFFFF) which would give us 1/2 PLUS (2/11)(1/10) for LLF, LFL and FLL; 6/110, so I think that gives us 61/110.

If I did it as (LLFFFFF) and (LLFFFFF) we have half of twice (2/7)(1/6) for three ways, which, I think, gives us (1/7).

61/110 is greater than 1/7.

I'll just try out (LLFFF) and (LLFFFFFFF) for science.

half of thrice (2/5)(1/4) + half of thrice (2/9)(1/8) = (3/2)(1/10 + 1/36) = 23/120. Which is smaller than 61/110, but larger than 1/7 so I'm gonna call it a trend (sorry science) and say that (LLF) (LLFFFFFFFFF) is the best way to do it.

Zephyr, over to you to explain what I did wrong ;p


*gripping Rasil by the beard and slapping him* Do not question The Puzzlemaster!!!

Bingo! That's the correct answer.

Well, Supplementscene technically got his answer in before me (though I began work on mine about half an hour before he posted ;p) so I guess we share victory?

Does anybody find these Sapphematics are distracting them from the game?

And we have a winner. Sorry I was reading replies backwards and missed yours.

I think we agreed joint winner?

So, what will you do with the joint you won?

Hey Zeo?

There's a lady out here claiming to be your granddaughter. I told her to go away, but then she pulled a knife on me and started babbling something about "ending the paradox".

I got her into Room 2C and barred the door. You should probably attend to that before she finishes cutting her way out.
I can't be held responsible for not catching the cat. I was busy putting out fires!

Was waiting for this one.....lol

You should've answered faster if you wanted it.

Chill out everybody. I'm gonna pass it round, I'm not an animal. Unfortunately, according to The Puzzlemaster's table, flubbucket is pon my right-hand side, so it might be a bit of a wait.

ZFR's pon my left-hand side. I'm getting the feeling he planned this...

The president and chancellor (trentolf and Lifthrasil) are now bound to silence until a policy is passed.

Here, have a picture:

While we are waiting for the policy, @agent, why did you vote no?

I'm sooo liberal I could be in movies.

So, Brexit was delayed, how is our government doing?
