+## Day 3: Lobby
+
+I had an idea for a solution to the first puzzle pretty quickly, and implemented it straightaway.
+
+But it was also brute force - literally stepping through each possible combination until I knew which one was best. This worked fine when only finding for a match, but the twist of the second puzzle made it... _impractical_ (and don't think I didn't try).
+
+ATM (11:30p Wed), I've got an algorithm that tries to create the highest value number by pulling out numbers in reverse numerical order, but it isn't _quite_ working. My current hope is to come at it fresh tomorrow when I also tackle puzzle 4.
