By your logic, I surpass quite a few dedicated experts. Can't really argue with that.

As do I. I'm glad you agree.

Out of curiosity, is there a point to this puzzle, or is it just in the spirit of friendly competition?

[complicatedliar]

I have to do something to entertain myself, or I may devolve into madness.

Something else we have in common. I assume you do this every day, then?

[Added as an afterthought] How often do people respond?

Thus far, three of the four days I've been here. On the missing day we were whisked off to wander about the town.

Not terribly many, but there are a few out there interested in maths.

If I were going to put up a puzzle like this, it would be an attempt to determine who here is clever enough to solve it, but also to determine who has a need for recognition, which could be seen as a weakness.

If only I were so clever, or devious.
