Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=9342)

The correct answer choice is (C)

This question provides a nice test of your linkage ability. Since the six variables are selected by the question stem, only the last two rules are applicable (both deal with the ordering of the variables). Since N (a concerto by Rodrigo) is to be played on the first Sunday, the conditions for the last rule (X on the fifth Sunday) are satisfied and this rule is not likely to play a role in answering the questions. However, since both J and O have been selected, the rule that states that J must be played before O is still in force. Since N will be played on the first Sunday, the sequencing relationship between J and O yields the Not Laws that J cannot be played on the sixth Sunday and O cannot be played on the second Sunday. Accordingly, answer choice (C) is correct.
