This is totally fine.
A visual representation of levels in the video game The Rise of the Golden Idol and the chronological timeline of those levels. A series of boxes, each representing a level, are laid out in a row, left-to-right, in the order that they appear in-game. The boxes have different colours indicating what chapter they are part of. There is a black arrow starting at one of the boxes, passing through all the other boxes, and ending at another box, indicating the chronological timeline, but this line is incredibly spaghetti-like, weaving in and out of the boxes and repeatedly jumping back-and-forth between the start and end of the row of boxes.

Day 3 of ThinkyCon starts in just over an hour, and the first talk has an interactive section in which there are a few questions to think about. Here are those questions!

If you'd like to ask for help (or get some bonus questions), join us on Discord: thinkygames.com/disc...
Question 3 Lottery: 10 numbers are drawn from the numbers 1 to 40. The prophecy says: if a number x is drawn and x is less than or equal to 39, then x+1 is also drawn. (This is true for every integer x) How many tickets must we fill in to guarantee a full match (all 10 numbers correct)? Question 2 We write down the powers of 3: 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243, 729, 2187, 6561, 19683, and so on. We note the digit in the tens place of each of these numbers: 0, 0, 0, 2, 8, 4, 2, 8, 6, 8. Is it true that this digit is always even? Question 1 Eight people - A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H - are on trial for robbery. We know that 3 of them are guilty, and the rest are completely innocent. They make the following statements about each other: A: B is innocent. B: C is innocent. C: D is innocent. D: E is innocent. E: F is innocent. F: G is innocent. G: H is innocent. The innocent always tell the truth. The robbers may tell the truth or lie. Who committed the robbery? Are there multiple possibilities or just one?
