THE HINTS- VITAL TO SUCCESS

[fundamental design]

I saw this post by Chris Yates and I wanted to provide reasons why I don’t agree with his assessment.

He states “as the clues are solved” one will be able to figure out more focused geographical areas.

What I see Chris miss here is that the clues can’t be solved by just using the clues themselves. I take that from f’s response about one needs other ingredients to solve for the correct wwwh (paraphrased). As well as, the clues are consecutive and contiguous and f’s nope, nope reply.

Therefore, f could have simply designed some “backstory” in the poem. Maybe that’s why the first clue is in the second stanza.

i don't see you dis-agreeing with anything here except with something that i've never said

a claim you've essentially fabricated out of thin air

so it seems you're having a debate with yourself?

not sure who will come out on top here. you or you. could go either way really

Ummm, you did say what I put in quotes. That’s why I put that part in quotes. The rest wasn’t important to my counterpoint so paraphrasing is valid.

As far as what I disagreed with, I stand by my statement that I don’t agree with your assessment. That’s what I said I disagree with...the assessment you made. You did make an assessment.

And yes, I also disagree with other things in your post that I never brought up yet. But, I also said where I think you missed something because you didn’t bring it up. I brought it up and posted f statements that back up why I think that.

I don’t think it’s a gray area that one needs backstory to solve the first clue, let alone subsequent clues. I think one does need backstory to do that as I explained.
