    Alright, I'm cool with that, but we should discuss each guess to some extent. It isn't all luck once the game starts going, there is some strategy to it.

    The best strategy we can make for a first guess is use the same person for every slot, like for example

    1. Jolanda 2. Jolanda 3. Jolanda 4. Jolanda 5. Jolanda

    since it pinpoints:
    a) if Jolanda is even in the list
    b) and if she is, where her position is

    So 2 people took clues... great. (I was one... I figured I'd be the only one since it'll be the 4th clue and I'm sharing with everyone...)

    I don't think they tell us what positions are right, only that we have positions rights.

    It's true, but it won't tell us about position since we only know how many positions are right, not which ones they are.

    From Jeff's post:

    After each guess, if you have not guessed the correct sequence of tribemates, we will tell you so. We will tell you firstly how many people that you guessed are also in the final order. We will also tell you how many people are in the correct position. It is up to you using that limited information to determine which tribemates are in the right position and which tribemates are indeed in the final puzzle.

    Also, we don't know the 5 names, so we have to pinpoint that.

    Yeah, we'll just have to pay attention to the clues we're given.

    At this point Chris should just start putting down random names. They probably randomized theirs too.

    Everyone keep notes of how many we got right, and where they might have been located.

    Also, if he says two names are correct, then obviously that means all of the names we didn't use are correct.
