PT 86 Game with mining. greyson, headquaters and krona.

rule one contradicts with the correct answer for the first question of the game. I looked at the explanation but it really don't solve my confusion.

"rule says that headquarters must be visited in between two different mine locations"

the answer choice B is contradicting the same rule. please explain may be i am reading it wrong. thanks!

    Hi! The two different mining locations are Grayson and Krona. The rule states there must be a visit to Headquarters in between any visits between G and K. Answer choice B doesn't contradict that rule. Headquarters is more like a home base, like, where the miners eat lunch or wipe the grime off. It doesn't count as a mining location.

    I understand the HQ being like a home base.

    Choice B is worded like this: Grayson in June, HQ in July and Grayson in August.

    Rule # 1 states: team must work for at least one month at HQ between any two months working at "Different Mines".

    My understanding for the rule is that different mines = K-HQ-G or G-HQ-K no matter is Grayson is stayed at 2 months in a row nor not. when making the switch to second location it has to be different than the first location and HQ must be visited.

    I don't know if I am making sense or not. #help

    No, different mines means Grayson and Krona. You only need an H if you're switching from G to K. As in the one thing the rule prohibits is GK or KG in a box. Hope that helps!

    This was the game I had to experience during my first ever official LSAT. It was awful. But after reviewing the game when the exam was released, I realized it was actually much much easier than I thought.
