Yes, that's correct.

Since Showsni is unable to choose a number, Veteran gets to choose the next number, as his guess was second closest to the correct number.

So it's 4871?
Someone else can have my go if so.

0932 (Wolf) One correct number in the wrong position.
4871 (Ace) One correct number in the wrong position.

:P I'm not smart enough to think of repeating the same number!

It's not suspicion. It's skepticism.

I don't see anything wrong, Ace, and here's the logic as to why.

5678 (Wolf) Three correct numbers, one in the right position.

I know here that I've got three numbres correct, but which one? I replace one of them to see if the number drops.

5671 (Wolf) Two correct numbers, both in the wrong positions.


It does, to two. So therefore 8 must have been one of the right numbers. Furthermore, I know that 8 must be at the end, because once I removed it, the numbers in the correct position drops from one to zero.

8650 (Rhia) Three correct numbers, one in the right position.

Now, Rhia uses almost exactly the same numbres as me, except she has replaced the 7 with a 0. The number of correct numbers doesn't drop, and nor does the numbers in the correct position, so 7 isn't one of the digits. Since 8 is no longer at the end, that must be either the 5 or the 6 is in the right position.

5268 (Ace) Three correct numbers, one in the right position.


I now know that 6 is not supposed to be the 3rd digit, because the number in the right position is 8.

3576 (Inuk) Three correct numbers, all in the wrong positions.

I now know that 3 is a correct digit, so the number must contain 3568.

6 can't go at the end. It can't be in the 3rd position, so it must be either in 1st place or 2nd, but it can't be in the 2nd position because

5671 (Wolf) Two correct numbers, both in the wrong positions.


Therefore it must go 1st.

The number now looks like 6xx8.

I know 5 can't be the 2nd digit because:

3576 (Inuk) Three correct numbers, all in the wrong positions.


So the number must be 6358.

P.S. If I have got the number correct, feel free to post your guesses to my number as soon as Veteran has confirmed that I was correct. I haven't thought up of the number right now, but I will have by the time I come back.

2943 - 1 correct numbers, 0 in wrong position. (Veteran)
1756 - 2 correct numbers, 1 in wrong position. (Inukensha)
8017 - 2 correct numbers, 2 in wrong position. (Showni)
6358 - 1 correct numbers, 1 in wrong position. (Ace)

P.S. I am not stupid enough to use the same number as last time, so soon after someone suggested using the same number as last time. So there. :P
