If your bored during the snow storm and need something to do.

Near as I can tell it's the only route that works.

Also, it's super easy if you start at 50 and work down. All the "tricky" forked pathes are set to lead you wrong if you're starting from one. Since there's only one winning route, by starting at 50, you never have issue.

There's another correct route that doesn't skip any numbers

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You mean a correct route? I feel like I'm in bizzaro world. Go straight down from start and you're good to not skip 6.

There's 2 correct routes that don't skip any numbers. The one you mentioned, and the one shown in the pic (the one shown skips a couple numbers, yes, but it can actually pick up those numbers without any trouble.)

I didn't check the route pictured. I just solved it and then came to the comments.

What I said stands. Start at 50 and work backwards. You pretty much can't screw it up.

[–] Dupelet@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You said the only route. I'm pointing out that there's 2.

Technically there's three other combinations besides OP's, if you wanna be a dick about it.

But they're all that same path with just minor changes before hoping back on that same path again.

Could you point out the part where I was being a dick? Jeez.

For starters, op had the right way. He just drew his lines wrong in a couple spots. He had it right. It's not like he skipped numbers because he was on a dead route.

Yes? I didn't claim or imply otherwise. I was literally only replying to your statement of 'it’s the only route that works.' by just noting that there was a second route that also works. I have literally no idea why you're taking offense.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 14 hours ago

Your second route is pretty much just the same route. You just go off it a little and then back onto it again.
