Good day PowerScore.

I'd like to share my process for going through question.

We know that 2 and 5 must be the same so it is impossible for either of them to be a Tam. So I created three quick templates to determine what would happen if T were in spots 1, 3, or 4.

If T were in spot 1 or 3, the whole situation quickly fails. This is because there is only one T in the whole game and the result of putting T in either location means 2 and 4 are both T, as well (rule 4). T must be in location 4. The end.

Thanks in advance!

Perfect, soupynoodles14! That's exactly how to handle that one! It's all about seeing which rules get triggered by this new restriction. Well done!
