Wonderful game, isn't it?
I don't agree with the "smarter-you-are-longer-it-takes" idea. Rather, it seems to me that the length of time is determined by how a person thinks, namely, do they first go the mathematical route, or do they first think of alternatives? The second group certainly isn't less intelligent, they simply think differently.
The other important thing is the title: that's the key. If you think about the title, then you'll be better off than if you don't, for sure and certain. It wasn't until I properly thought about the title that I found the answer.
When I first went about it, I went the mathematical route, spending about twenty minutes trying to find the patterns. Then, I took thirty seconds thinking about the title and it dawned on me in an instant.
Good luck, lads, and may you keep challenging your minds.
