Nice lol. I barely even thought about this one because I thought it would involve some complicated math which isn't as fun to me. But that's so simple and makes a lot of sense. Ye of little faith! When I say there is little to no maths, I mean it. I am able to guage these things without vastly overestimating how much most people love algebra. :p Although really, solving these kinds of puzzle is really what proper maths is all about, not the boring stuff you have to do at school. Maybe Nelzi secretly has a PhD, he's awesome. Sorry about your WBTB! You should try to find a zinger of a puzzle to get your revenge. By the way, I think the "mastermind-beautiful-insight-moment" is probably a pop-culture fiction. There's no such thing as an intellect which somehow manipulates some kind of pure logical structure with total comprehension, insight and purpose. Fundamentally, everybody just stumbles about in the dark until they hit something. Some people such as yourself just have a knack for stumbling.
