				| Hi, 
 I'm just wondering why TDS's hint machine can't give rationale for its hint suggestions.  This would be extremely helpful and if it's just going through a set of logic rules it'd seem quite simple to implement.  You could hide the rationale behind a link if some players didn't want to see it.

 Hello Jez
 
 No good reason other than not enough hours in the day!  It's been on the list for a while, but keeps getting overtaken by more interesting things!  I'll try and get there.
