Setup and Rule Diagram Explanation
This is a Pure Sequencing game.
Because all of the rules are sequential in nature, this is classified as a Pure Sequencing game. However, we will use an Advanced Linear stack to handle the day/night-shift designations, and so if you initially classified this as an Advanced Linear game, you are not incorrect.
The rule about the day/night shifts translates as follows:
Within these possible shift assignments, F and R must always be day shifts.
The initial stacked game scenario thus appears as follows:
Each of the five rules is simple to understand. Although there are different ways to draw out the relationships, the following sequence is one correct representation:
From this sequential diagram we can deduce that either F or R must be first, and that either H or T must be last. In addition, because F and R are always day-shift crews, the first crew must be a day-shift crew. This leads to the final diagram for the game:
While additional Not Laws could be placed on the diagram, the sequence is so powerful that these are unnecessary.
