Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=3672)
The correct answer choice is (C)
Since we are answering a Global, Must Be True question, the correct answer choice must be true for any solution of the game. This can easily be validated by referring to the six Possibilities outlined earlier.
Answer choice (A) is not necessarily true, because according to all possibilities in Template 2, the digit 2 can appear in some position before the digit 1.
Answer choice (B) is not necessarily true, because according to Possibility 2B, the digit 3 can appear in some position before the digit 1.
Answer choice (C) is the correct answer choice, because the digit 2 appears in some position before the digit 3 in all six possibilities outlined earlier. Without the use of a Possibilities-based approach, validating this answer choice would be a lot more time-consuming.
Answer choice (D) is not necessarily true, because the digit 3 appears in some position before the digit 0 only in Possibility 1C.
Answer choice (E) is not necessarily true, because according to Possibilities 1A and 1C, the digit 3 can appear in some position before the digit 4.
