Also, (correct me if I'm wrong it's been a while) as far as revenge arcs go he was rather chill about it. He didn't spend every waking moment building a giant board and investigating every angle. He picked a job that introduced him to a lot of people high and low and just looked for people with six fingers.

He devoted himself to becoming the best swordsman in the world and spent years chasing the six-fingered man. But he found nothing and became a depressed alcoholic. The years of anticipation crashed down on him like a pile of bricks. Vizzini gave him a job and sobered him up

Not that I'm complaining.
Read the book!
