The three cups
Cup 1: Flash Grid
Flash Grid, Easy: holding a scattered pattern for a second. The first pattern has 3 tiles on a 3 × 3 grid and stays lit for 1.11 s.
Tip: When the grid grows, split it in your head into halves and remember which half held more light.
Cup 2: Step Back
Step Back, Position · 1 back: keeping a short list moving through your mind. 21 squares, 6 of them matches, on 7 places of the board.
Tip: In position mode, give the squares names like clock positions; names are easier to shuffle along than places.
Cup 3: Light Trail
Light Trail, Easy: keeping an order of shapes and notes. The first trail is 3 steps long on 4 panels; each panel glows for 0.52 s.
Tip: Say the trail quietly to yourself by shape: circle, star, drop. Words travel further than pictures for many people.
