Things to take note of:
- - Please play the game at least once in order to make sense of this guide. It’s only 100G; you can earn much more back.
- Because of the ridiculously long names of the apples, they will be abbreviated as such.- Super Ultra Great Delicious Wonderful Apple = S
Hyper Miracle Sweet Gorgeous Beautiful Apple = H
Angel Eternal Pure Fresh Elegant Apple = A
- Super Ultra Great Delicious Wonderful Apple = S
For clarification purpose, I will run through a sample scenario. Take for example, the apple on the left, is the SUGDW apple. The apple in the center, is the HMSGB apple. The apple on the right, is the AEPFE apple.
2. Follow the left apple in each shuffle.
3. You need to follow the first 2 positions of the apple, and in some cases the final position, and that will determine the final order. In my scenario, he switched the apple we are keeping our eyes on from the left to the center. So, taking note, first position: Center.
4. Next, in the example, he switched the apple to the right. Taking note, second position: Right.
Note: As mentioned step 3, there are cases in which we must take note of the final position to determine the final order. The case arises when the first two positions are center, then right. In such cases, we must take note of the apple we are following all the way to the end, taking note of the final position.
(Special case)
5. In my situation, I have to follow the apple all the way to the end. In his final swap, he switched the center apple (The one I’m keeping my eye on), to the left. Hence, final position: Left.
In all other cases observing the first two positions is enough. It’s only when the first two positions are center, then right consecutively, then we should observe step 5 and follow the apple to its final position.
The steps can be summed up as following the left apple in the initial position as it goes along, taking note of the first and second position of the certain apple (And occasionally, the final position) as Won shuffle them.
From the scenario presented, my situation started out as SHA (Left apple, center apple, right apple). Keeping my eye on the left apple, the first position it moves to was C (Center). The second position was a move from the center to R (Right). Following all the way to the last swap, the apple moved from the center to L (Left).
Presenting the scenario in this format, SHA -> CR(L). By checking this information with the data provided, I can conclude that in the final position, the apples are place in the order, SAH. With the left apple being the SUGDW apple, the center apple being the AEPFE apple, and the right apple being the HMSGB apple.
The following data is in the format:
Starting order of the apples -> left apple first position, left apple second position, (left apple last position) -> Final order of the apples .
So, for example SHA->CR(C) -> HSA, means that the apples are in the order SHA before the shuffle, the left apple moves first to the center, then to the right, and eventually ends up in the center position. The final order is thus HSA, and you can answer Won correctly when he asks e.g. where the AEPFE apple is (right). After that, just locate the new starting order for the next round, HSA, and off you go.
