[Closed] warm-up before challenge #5

hey, people! this is not a free food. give me at least your score… i might be dumb but it takes ~2min for me to Riddle the riddle…

first loading the script it took me at least 20 seconds to work out what to do… so i restarted and got 1 min 54. process of elimination and then some guessing came into it

EDIT: second attempt 5.01 … I think i got lucky with some of the names last time…

At 4 AM: 5:00
At 10 AM: 1:28

I am getting better

Took me a while to figure out how it worked but then on the first try

2:08 w00t

Nice game Denis

here is my cheating device

global roll_colorGuesser
try (destroyDialog roll_colorGuesser) catch ()
rollout roll_colorGuesser "I know what color is it"

this is a scripting challenge after all so lets see if someone can come up with a better way to cheat! (and not just print screen and edit in ps)

Dont need photoshop to cheat, the game is reconfigured randomly, can be he clicked new game until it got 16 correct at once. And even then, very lucky heh

If I’m not mistaking the odds would be 1 : 2004189184
for that and in that case the time should be 00:00:00… Denis, you should have used a random picker that gives 0 matches in initial state
