Slight change to 2 2 4 4 3 2

2 whacks on hole 2 forces him on to 3, 4 or 5.

Whack hole 4 means he's forced to be on 3 or 5 to still be alive.

Whack 4 again means he's either dead or on 2.

Whack 3 means he's either dead or on 1

Whack 2 means he's dead.

Hmmmm. Could be wrong.

Are you sure this is possible Mr Flyn?

If it isn't and you're wasting my time I'll smash your teeth in.

Hill1.               Hill 2.                Hill 3.                  Hill 4.         Hill 5.
                     Day 1/2.             Day 3/4.              Day5/6

Job done

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.
Says he moves to adjacent hill so can't get past you imo

Forget this I'm stupid

You can force him on to 3 holes easy enough. Just need to force him on to 2 then it's curtains to the little fella!!

Whack 3 means he's either dead or on 1

Whack 2 means he's dead.

Don't think this quite works. When you first whack hole 4 he could move onto 2 which you don't consider.

Yes I did Smiley

Hmmmm. Could be wrong.


It got to be along those lines though. You can just work it out the brute force way figuring out where he can possibly be. Don't think there's too many combinations to make that too tough.

Defo head scratcher and a good one.
