Mastermind!

Let's start a game of Mastermind! I will start by creating the code, and anyone here can make a guess (we will change next game). Instead of colors, we will use the numbers 1-6, and the same number can be used more than once. You guess a 4-digit code using the numbers 1-6. You will have 12 guesses (put the number by each one), and after each guess I will say how many numbers are correct but in the wrong place, and how many are correct and in the right place.

OK, I got a code (rolled 4d6). Who will be the first one to guess!

Hmmmm.

I will take guess number 1 then.

2 (red), 3 (red), 4 (red), 6 (red)

 

It's fun when I can pick the numbers to be the same colour!

Numbers correct, wrong place: 2

Numbers correct, right place: 1

Question: could the numbers repeat? Not asking if they do, just if its allowed in the game

Yes, but let’s say you put down X twice, and only one exists, it will say one is right not two.

1156

Ok, then. Guess number 2.

2, 3, 4, 5.

I'll go in order, but I will let Mcbehrer change his if he wants before answering it.

 

Numbers correct, wrong place: 1

Numbers correct, right place: 0

Summary

G-U-E-S-S: Numbers correct, wrong place/numbers correct, right place

1) 2-3-4-6: 2/1

2) 1-1-5-6: 1/0

Ok, so there's a 6, no 5 or 1.

6, 3, 6, 4

Summary

G-U-E-S-S: Numbers correct, wrong place/numbers correct, right place

1) 2-3-4-6: 2/1

2) 1-1-5-6: 1/0

3) 6-3-6-4: 2/0

4-4-2-6?

5-2-4-3!

CORRECT!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!

 

Ok, who is making the code for the next game?

ok wait.

it's gotta be 3-2-4 something.

I guess 3-2-4-2
