Yeah...I made a grid-table thing without even thinking about it. Drew five houses and started listing properties (same ones in same rows) to the logic. Wasn't hard at all. Without paper it would be.

I tried using the grid, but it made my brain hurt.

I haven't read any replies; I don't want any extra clues. But I need some clarification: When it says green is to the left of white, does it mean immediately to the left, or just somewhere left of white?

immediately to the left
-------------------- Annnnnnd I had a light saber and my friend was there and I said "you look like an indian" and he said "you look like satan" and he found a stick and a rock and he named the rock ooga booga and he named the stick Stick and we both thought that was pretty funny. We got eaten alive by mosquitos but didn't notice til the next day. I stepped on some glass while wading in the swamp and cut my foot open, didn't bother me til the next day either....yeah it was a good time, ended the night by buying some liquor for minors and drinking nips and going to he diner and eating chicken fingers, and then I went home and went to bed.

i used a chart or grid or whatever i am saying its the coffe drinking prince smokin german in the green fouth house that was pretty entertaining I think that more than 2% of the population could get the answer. But i dont think more than 2% would be willing to waste enough time and energy to methodically eliminate options like that.

maybe that's what Albert meant ... that as long as you persist at a problem you will get it... and that the 'stupid' people give up and the 'intelligent' people work together and persist.

I arrived at the same conclusion (German, Fish), after a whole mess of scribbling with coloured pencils . The grid method would have been much more efficient. Nice one, daba.
