Hi Gerhard. I agree with you. This one is actually a bit difficult according to me also. But as you already mentioned it is also a very exciting puzzle with too many possibilities. You may assign numbers to the letters in 4.0329146x10^26 different ways and also may form infinitely many different arrangements for the snake part (since you may set different snakes with arbitrary length). So it is very very hard to estimate the final maximum for this task. I think this is the main reason why the period given for this one is a bit longer (2-3 days) from the other tasks The optimization fans may give it a try since there are still 16 days remaining
