The team must work for at least one month at headquarters between any two months working at different mines.

I somehow understood the above clause as 'H must exists between any 'two months working at different mines', that is H must be inserted only when two months of different mines on each side, like GK_KG, but not necessary when G_K which made the question much harder than it should be. lol

That would certainly make this game more difficult, quan-tang!

Sometimes when a rule looks unclear at first, it helps to draw out what they are describing. I often do that with rules that use "between" or sequencing because they can be easy to get turned around. It's easy to read "two mines" as requiring two mines on each side, especially if you are going quickly through the material. Find a way to slow yourself down on rule types that you find are common error spots for you. It's also worth noting that you could also have caught that there was an error with that rule as you go through the questions. If all the questions don't seem to be working for some reason, it makes sense to go back to the rules/inferences/diagramming.

Keep at it!
