This was a bad miss by DC I thought.
I wondered about this. Furthermore, it felt like there ought to be a falseagram, but it seems there isn't.Philip A wrote: ↑Wed Aug 18, 2021 10:15 pm No more ‘sedations’ x https://www.apterous.org/ticket_view.php?ticket=6223
That’s twice in a row now she ruled it invalid each time a contestant noted it (regardless whether they declare 8 or 9). https://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_5425 Sedation is clearly not countable in common sense.
I think tcsquared is linked up to some sort of Lexplorer software, and afaik Sedations is valid on Apto, hence why tcsquared lists it as valid...Stewart Gordon wrote: ↑Mon Aug 23, 2021 9:53 pmI wondered about this.

Some of us use this at Lincoln-style* Co-events. It does have its limitations - there's no audible alarm option, and it can't solve numbers games. But when I eventually get round to writing an Android version of my solver, the latter'll be less of an issue.
*I'm sure it was called Edinburgh-style, but it seems to have been renamed to Lincoln-style in recent times.
