Notes

This is something new for me, and there appears to be a bit of a learning curve for developing logic problems. It took me a full week to put this together, so I might try to look for ways of streamlining the process in the future. This means that this logic problem is not necessarily representative of future logic problems that I will develop.

A lot of this was randomized. This includes the subject and a lot of the information in the clues. The idea was to disconnect myself with what I thought should be an acceptable solution so that reading me isn’t nearly as valuable as actual logic. This also means that you can’t rely on a realistic solution.
 

Feel Free to Comment

I suggest that you try to solve logic problems without any assistance if possible. Unfortunately, people can get stuck. Before asking for help, take a day off and them come back to it. Sometimes this can clear your head a bit and give you a fresh perspective. If this still doesn't work for you, it would be acceptable to ask someone for help. If you are among those who want to help people solve a logic problem, I have some advice to share. Try to get them to follow the logic. Simply providing people with a part of the solution won't do them any good.

This also creates a potential problem. Those who might use my comments section could encounter hints that they don't want. This makes the comments section a possibility but not an ideal approach for getting help. Even with this drawback, you can still skim over comments to find what you are looking for without doing too much damage.
