Docket

0:00time

One small world, 5 questions about it.

Today it is The Two Benches. Read the setup and the conditions, work out what they force, then answer. The conditions stay on screen the whole time, because the deductions are meant to be reused. There is a sketch to lay the letters out in, a notes pad, and you can cross off a choice you have ruled out. If the format feels familiar, it is: this is the reasoning section a well known standardized test used to run, and quietly retired.
