If you only have 3 possible scores, I don't think the issue of having to research actually plays. You center around 0. If you get a score back, it's 0. If you fail high, the score must necessarily be +9999. If you fail low, it's necessarily -9999. No need to resolve anything. The original poster was correct there will be more cutoffs (I think), and if the goal is to solve the game, this may be a good optimization. But for a beginner, things like this should be avoided since it gets complicated fast. -- GCP
