FL rank up question

[Myrrh]

Okay, I've done the qiqirn part like 10 times now and I keep screwing up. I can't seem to find the little bastards with the given isolation options. <_< Is there some sort of easier way to find the bastards or do I just suck?

Do in order:
Group searches:
1-4(Referred to from here out as "Group 1)
3-6(optional)
5-8("Group 2")
7-10(optional)
9-12("Group 3")

Pair searches:
use based off previous results:

You do not need to do pair searches for 1-2 or 11-12. Since these are a waste of pair searches. If you do not find all qiqirn in Group 1 searching 2-4, it's obviously #1.

Optional Group searches I listed are a good way of isolating qiqirn even further. If you come up with 2 in Group 1 and 2 in Group 2, but only 1 in the first optional search, if you find that qiqirn in your Group 1, you know that either of the Group 2 Qiqirn cannot possibly be #5 or #6, which just leaves you with #7 and #8.

Stretching Pair searches as much as possible is the key to winning it.

Take a sheet of paper and note the clues. First by different groups of 4 then 2 etc. Also if you fail fake dc and you will be able to try again.

I thought it was really easy, but I love logic puzzles like that. I can try helping you later on if I'm on and you're still not past it. Skaw's method is most of what I was doing, though, so you should be able to get it from that. Occasionally you just run out of searches and it just comes down to luck; but I've been able to find out who they are with searches to spare.

 

[Skaw]

Another thing, that should've been obvious is if neither are suspicious, do not do an overlapping pair using either of the numbers involved.

 

[Bajaratt]

Yeah, it's nice that they tell you if neither, one or both of the pair are suspicious.
