By barking with text-to-speech on, the dog accidentally programmed a module.
- Input the correct letter sequence determined using the following instructions.
- An incorrect input resets the module and gives a strike.
Step 1: Figuring the starting sequence
-
Follow these rules in the order they are listed. Select the first sequence that applies:
- If there are at least 3 lit indicators on the bomb, the starting sequence is “UNDERTALE”.
- Otherwise, if there are at least 3 unlit indicators on the bomb, the starting sequence is “DELTARUNE”.
- Otherwise, if there are exactly 8 solved modules, the starting sequence is “NUDE ALERT”.
- Otherwise, if there are less than 6 modules on the bomb, the starting sequence is “ANT DUELER”.
- Otherwise, if there is 1 minute left or less, or if there is more than 1 needy module on the bomb, the starting sequence is “ULTRA NEED”.
- Otherwise, if the initial time on the bomb was 10 minutes or more, the starting sequence is “ELDER AUNT”.
- Otherwise, if there are at least 3 circular jacks (a Stereo RCA has 2, a Component Video has 3, etc.), the starting sequence is “NUT LEADER”.
- Otherwise, if the serial number has an E or a D, the starting sequence is “NEUTRAL ED”.
- If none of the above apply, the starting sequence is “UNRELATED”.
Step 2: Permuting the sequence
- For each AA battery on the bomb, put the last letter of the sequence before the others.
- For each D battery on the bomb, put the first letter of the sequence after the others.
- If the total number of ports is odd (count a Stereo RCA, a Component Video, etc. as 1 port each), reverse the sequence.
- Enter the resulting sequence on the keypad.
However, if there is an unlit indicator with label BOB and the serial number has 2 letters that are present on the module, skip the steps 1 and 2 altogether and input “UNRELATED” instead.
