0 fabpig Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 This is going well! Mea culpa....I'll redefine the puzzle as I left it very vague before. It's time for my holidays again and, as usual, I've very little money. So, by applying a couple of criteria (a bit like Green Glass Doors), I managed to wittle down to 12 the number of cities I would visit. Then I thought about it some more, and decided that even 12 was too many, and so applied another rule and split the 12 into 8 "must visit" and 4 "must not visit" cities. Can you apply the rules and complete this table? (I think the first criterion is fairly obvious): "Must visit" "Must not visit" 1. Concord 1. Frankfort 2. Providence 2. 3. Dover 3. 4. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. So what's needed is /a bit wordy/a bit logic/a bit geography/. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
fabpig
I'm on one of my "short of funds" tours again. So there are only so many cities I can visit before the money runs out.......
So far I've been to:
Concord
Providence
Dover
I will NOT be visiting:
Frankfort
There are 5 more cities I will be visiting
And 1 more I will definitely not.
So which cities will I visit, and which will I definitely not go to? (and why?)
If this stagnates, I'll add an extra city to my 'will' list every so often.
To the good citizens of Frankfort (and the other place, yet to be discovered): nothing personal.
