GAZED

We know G is wrong from GROUT=0

We know E is wrong since T is established.

We know D is wrong since EASES/EASED=1 and the last letter cannot be both S and D.

BASES and EASES also = 1 so that rules out E/B being correct. So either A or S is the correct letter.

if GAZED = 0 then the A is wrong and S must be the 3rd letter.

if GAZED = 1 then A must be correct since both Z and S cannot work

if GAZED = 2 (unlikely) then AZ is correct. _AZT_? Nahhhh

BARES

Lets see B is not first BASES = EASES, S is not last EASES = EASED, we know T is 4th so E is not 4th

If 0 then S is 3rd due to BASES = 1 and now we know A is not 2nd.

if 1 then A is 2nd as we know S and R asre not 3rd due to BARES = BASES

if 2 then AR are 2nd and 3rd due to only possible letters left after above.

edit aww Maq, you got me. :thumbsup::ph34r:

*hopes that BARES = 2 *

CLOUT -

if 1 then C is first L ruled out by A is second, OUT ruled out by GROUT = 0

if 0 then O is last - CANTO = 3. SANTA = 2 rules out N as _ A _ T _ proven and CLOUT = 0 rules out C

CASTS - if 3 then C is first. If 2 then O is last.

Reason: SANTA - 2 and _A_T_ known rules out N from CANTO - 3 so either C is first or O is the last.

Also S's from CASTS are ruled out by EASTS -2 (with A and T known).

Nevermind, time to risk it all:

FACTO
