In Time Bandit, there is a section called the "Old Ghost
Town." I am playing on level 4D, and I can break the
gate any time I want to... but before I do, I want to get
across the tar pit in the bandits' hideout. I have all
nine letters, and I have double-checked them by going to
each bandit in turn, but I've had no luck getting the
correct combination of letters H! I have tried the
letters in the order I found them, the reverse of the
order I found them, alphabetical order, reverse
alphabetical order, vowels first, etc., etc., ad nauseum.
I figure there are over 300,000 possible orderings of
nine letters taken nine at a time, and I have no wish to
try a brute force attack. Can anyone tell me how to
which order of letters to use?
