Even after over a year reading the responses to these, I still fail to understand how these guesses are made. I get that you're breaking down the statement into independent ideas/statements then re-imagining them into the final solution. But how do you decide what is disseminated where and how to combine the individual parts? As an American these types of puzzles are very foreign and honestly confusing  I love puzzles though so I have this weird urge to understand.

But even then, it can take a while to get used to a particular setter's style. This is made more complicated here, because the setter changes each day, but there aren't that many of us who try to win, since the reward for success is to set the following one!
Give it a go! The worst thing that can happen is "Nope, that's not even close" - and the best is "Yay! You are up tomorrow!"

Ah! I just pick up puzzle books here and there. CodeProject is the first time I'd seen this style of puzzle  Asked a few friends and they were clueless as well, haha.
Thanks for the references!
