				| I took three steps but noticed, as I found the 3rd, that I could have used only the last  method I found.  Ah well,  it wasn't a race!  |  |

				| Maybe the same as Wapiti, I played two XY-Wings before the XYZ-Wing. However, that's normal for me, as I look for XYs before XYZs. |  |

 As Marty said, ( roughly )  you see things in the order you look for them!
 
 I saw the two xy-wings first as xyz is usually a lot later in my search.
 I spotted this one early,  for me.

 Sorry Danny, I guess I was the odd one out since I do not look for xyz-wings until late in the sequence.
