 		If the "Internal Errors" really do coincide with wrong answers, we could theoretically use them to determine which answers are correct so we can refocus our efforts.

A challenge for those of you who are good at math (I believe this would be a linear algebra / matrix problem) would be to determine solution mixes to yield confirmations on correct answers in the least number of attempts.

Example:

Williams Syndrome / cheese for the rest would hypothetically yield 13 "Internal Errors". If it yields 14, then that answer would be wrong.

I actually went and entered "cheese" in all 14 fields and submitted that, just to see what would happen.

The error message is gone now. Bah. And I spent 400 credits just to find that out!

What's not to love?

Purity is like a multiple choice spelling bee crossed with a medical book. Not only do you get to guess which correct answer is actually the real correct answer. You then get to choose which correct spelling is actually the real correct spelling. Fun fun fun!!! Laughing

Cursing

Anyway thought I'd save some people some credits

Williams Syndrome
Turner Syndrome
Huntington's Disease
Prader-Willi Syndrome
Sickle-cell anemia
Down Syndrome
Treacher Collins Syndrome
Progeria
Cri du Chat Syndrome
Marfan Syndrome
Klinefelter's syndrome
Cystic Fibrosis
Muscular dystrophy
Tay-Sachs disease

Doesn't work either

 		Hmm
Someone should ask Kropp... I mean, he is the Red District handler which means he could probably go and ask MediCorp if you all are on the right track.
