It’s funny, how I found them because I was looking up puzzle duels, and without them I wouldn’t be here to host ā€œpuzzle duelsā€ (I would categorize number poker as a puzzle duel.) It’s a nice full circle.

(they introduced me to ToS (and mafia-likes as general), from Tos I got familiar with FM, and while waiting for FM games to fill, I got familiar with BtM. And I was introduced to this site due to a BTM game. Now I am comfortable enough to host miscs, including puzzle duels, like number poker.)

I am doing a sick grind down the alt right pipeline

First i notice the last digit in both is >5 so i cant cleanly add them. So i take out and add the tenths. I get 60. And then i look at 7 and 8. I take out five from each to get a ten, and im left with 2 and 3. So i end up with 60 + 10 + 2 + 3 = 75

20 + 40 + (8 + 7) = 60 + 15 = 75

8+2=50, 50+25=75

I didn’t really check beforehand, but I am reading them from left to right. (for some reason)
I add 20 and 40 together. afterwards I notice that 7+8 > 10
so I add 3 to 7. and making the first number 1 bigger.
and finally I subtract the 3 (that I added to 7) from 8

so it become (if I need to show as an equation): 20+40+7+3+10+(8-3)=75

Then what do you do in case 69+42?

Actually i think i do it your way

69 + 1 = 70
70 + 42 = 70 + 30 + 12 = 112
112 - 1 = 111

valid strategy
this is what I’d do if it’s on paper

During this time, I reached the point, that I know two cells, that definetly can’t be an index number…

Nothing more… (well a bit more, but nothing concrete.)

Meanwhile I solved irregular XV with an active timer around 70 minutes.

And still no new progress on renrenbanban…
