After noticing that the "share result" copy/paste from #pastpuzzle includes information about how far off each guess was, trying a meta-puzzle of deducing the solution based on other people's result shares, without looking at the question. Yesterday's made a sort of "meta meta" puzzle with a lot of people getting it in one or two guesses -- a date people remembered, i.e. in their lifetimes. Today's was more puzzly, but I managed to pick it off after a bit of scribbling on scrap paper. A lot of result sets seem to follow the same sequence, so they don't add any new information. I'm not sure whether I'm making full use of the information that's there; I'm curious about trying to code something up... #pastpuzzle en-288 🟩🟩🟩🟩 (0) ▪️▪️▪️▪️ ▪️▪️▪️▪️ ▪️▪️▪️▪️ 1/4 🥇 https://www.pastpuzzle.de
