Perhaps she [sic]
spotted what the words had in common on Day 1, with only the word "dekko" to go by?
If that's the case, she'd [sic]
no doubt excel at this maths puzzle, which has only one correct answer, of
course...
Q. Provide the next four numbers in the following series:
3 , _ , _ , _ , _Or maybe not. This one has me stumped.
I must admit I was only guessing. As Chief informs us, there is a .3% chance that a single word chosen at random (or as part of a different theme) will have its letters in alphabetical order, so I had at least 3 chances in 1000 of being wrong.
Personally, I'm most impressed by the guess "sounds like a number", which turned out to be true for the second word, too!
Speaking of inferring too much from a single word, there's maybe a 5% chance (I'm guessing) that a person named "Tracy" won't be a "she" after all. In my case, I was named for my father, who was named for his father, who was named for his mother's maiden name in a day when "Tracy" was not such a common girl's name.
No offence taken, though. We live each day by taking our best guess.
