Head of Household #14 - Logic Puzzle


Overview:
For this challenge, you will be competing in a logic puzzle. I will post a list of operatives, targets, spy agencies, locations, mission codes, and the bounty on the targetss. I will then post a list of clues that will allow you to deduce which operatives these descriptors belong to. In other words, you are trying to solve which item to each category belongs to each Operative..

The fastest person to post the CORRECT contents of every Operative in their diary room, will win Head of Household.


Notes:
  • Operatives are arranged in ascending numerical order from left to right (i.e., if there were 10 operatives, Operative #1 is on the far left, Operative #10 would be on the far right).
  • The location of each item can be deduced entirely from the given clues. There is not necessarily any correspondence to the Isolated forums, or any other external factor.
  • When a clue references a direction, it can be referring to any rocket in that direction. EXAMPLE: If a clue reads “Alpha is standing to the right of Mission 1, that means Alpha could be at Mission 2, Mission 3, or Mission 4. You must use other clues to deduce which is correct.
  • When a clue gives a specific number, it is referring to only that number. EXAMPLE: if a clue reads “There is one Mission between Alpha and Omicron” it means there is exactly one rocket between Alpha and Omicron.
  • The phrase “directly to” refers to the next Mission over. EXAMPLE: if a clue reads “Beta is directly to the left of Mission #3” it means Beta is at Mission #2.
  • Your final post should clearly show the complete contents of every Mission. I recommend a format something like: (Mission #1 alpha , beta, oss, miami, orange, 20 dollars, etc.)

Rules:
• You may not discuss the clues or answers with other houseguests.
• You only get 1 submission. So be sure to double check your answers before submitting.
• In the event nobody correctly solves the puzzle after 30 minutes, the person with the most correct answers in the least amount of time will be declared the winner.
• Your timer will start once you respond to the other thread titled REPLY TO BEGIN. You will have THIRTY MINUTES to submit a solution.
Any questions?
