A mole digs 5 mole hills in your back garden laid in a row.
Every day at midday he will pop his head up giving you a few seconds to hit it with your shovel - but you need to be standing in front of the right hill to do this.
After this he will move to an adjacent hill.
If you are stood at the wrong hill you do NOT see where he surfaced.
In which order do you choose to check the hills to ensure you will have got him in no longer than 6 days?

Is that to say he will move to an adjacent hill and stay there until he pops up the next noon?

My moles dig 10 holes a day and I never get to hit one with a shovel.

Yes, he moves exactly once a day. If he's in the left hand hill he's forced to move right. If he's in the right hand hill he's forced to move left. Anywhere else it's randomly left or right. Just whack the middle one every day.
Doesn't work. Could endlessly just alternate betwen the two at a side.

Just throw a smoke bomb down the middle hole and smoke the bastard out then pop a cap in its ass.

You'd stand on the right hill at noon and hit him from whichever mole hill he pops out from... I prefer Amatays fit older women thread...

This doesn't work because he could be on Hills 4 and 3 on Days 1-2, then just alternate between Hills 2 and 1 whilst you mess around with Hills 3 and 4 on the remaining days.
