Multiple Boards on one Question?

Hi!

So I've been practicing LG and I've run into a timing problem on one of them. I can easily get all the answers right in 8 min, but it is considered an 'easy' game. I think what the problem is, is that there aren't really any inferences from the rules you can make, so the questions are all 'If this....then what?' questions. This obviously requires a new board, but I'm even finding in order to eliminate all but 1 answer choice I need to draw 2 boards (ie a block of TWE that goes into 567 and then TWE going into 456 because those are the 2 places those blocks can go). Has anyone found a way to do this more quickly? Or should I just expect to spend more time on these types of games?

    To answer your question abstractly: yes, sometimes I have had to draw out multiple boards for one question and sometimes I can rely on previous work that I have left standing. I just drew out 4 boards to answer a question on the circle game from PT 41 about 9 minutes ago.

    Circle games! WAAAAAAAHHHHHHH. Those require so many boards.

    It's prep test 33 section 4 game 1 (simple sequencing). It seems that if I don't draw out the multiple boards per question I get it wrong because I can't physically see both options. Just a little time consuming and wondering if there is a way around it I am missing?

    One thing I'll do when I want to run multiple scenarios quickly is to use a skeleton board. So, I'll usually draw in the slots once and do one board above and another below. Then if I need to split either of those, I'll just do the extra board right on top or right below. I think sometimes it's definitely helpful to run multiple boards, just make sure you're not drawing out full game boards for each one. There's just not time for that.
