OK, see now editing is no good. HEART if 1 then T is last: first two are BU and not AR from BOARD - 1

BUNCH man, I need to refresh more often. recalculating... HEART if 1 then T is last: first two are BU and not AR from BOARD - 1

BLEEP - If 1 then B is first as SLEEP - 0; if 0 then last is O as BRAVO - 1 now not B and not RAV from CRAVE - 0.

Been away from this game too long - is it one word per member per round or two or three at the start? STEPS

urghh - was right there. darn pesky work thing.

WHEEL If 1 then L is last: not W from WAKEN - 0; not HEE from SHEEN - 0

color me Purple

SHEEN If one the H is second: not S from SORRY - 0; not EN from WAKEN - 0; and middle is U

BLUES if 1 then U is in the middle. Not B from BATHE - 0; not L from SLEEP - 0; not ES from COMES - 0

WEANS if WEANS = 1 then W is first not E or N from BEING = 0, not A fron AGAIN = 0, not S from BEANS = 0 if WEANS = 0 then R is middle only letter different than WERNS - 1

BEANS If 1 then S is last. Not BEN from BEING nor A from AGAIN.

B I T E S If 1 then T is middle letter. Not B or S from BALLS - 0 and second and fourth letters already established.

I'll need help with the scoring. Especially since this is somewhat uncanny. Probably deserves extra credit but the OP would have to jump in yet he would be the recipient... R E P L Y dang! no joke.

Spoiler for a guess

ENTER if 5 --> woot woot

I'm game. I check in at least daily. Don't always sign in tho.

Spoiler for some supporting math

Hmm, let's put the axes of the trapezae on each of two motorized pinions which would travel the full length of each of two racks in the time the swinger travelled from platform one to trapeze two or from trapeze two to platform two. Assuming the length of each rack is infinity/2, the platforms could be infinity apart.

and a Spoiler for some additional thoughts:

Spoiler for one calculation That is if my math holds up.

without getting too political, what I meant was, just as the word spouse can mean either one, so does the parallel term in the answer.

Don't think it could ever be possible

Hey hey you two - Wilson, know it's been a while since you posted the above but gotta say, very clever as always - indeed too clever for me. And just reviewed these and only now do I fully get your previous stab at this one. Always been fifty fifty on the spelling of that arid wasteland or after meal treat. Love it. T - thanks for the bump. All's true in your spoiler above with the exception that the spouse is not gender specific. Cheers

perhaps...
