Adult use and a chosen stopping time
The site rule limits this guide and simulator to adults aged 18 or older. That rule establishes no regional gambling age or commercial service eligibility. Choose a stopping time outside the game and leave when it arrives.
Free virtual losses do not need recovery; refill can remain unused. If play displaces other activities or causes distress, pause and seek qualified local support. No diagnostic threshold, treatment promise or authenticated local helpline is supplied here.
Pause without recovering virtual losses
Stop cancels future automatic rounds while an active spin settles under its captured settings. Closing the page ends participation. A result creates no obligation to recover the starting virtual balance or continue.
Modes do not change symbol probabilities or positive-score frequency. Raising the stake scales debit and possible credit without improving expected return per coin. Previous sequences do not make a palindrome due to appear. Leave at a stopping time chosen independently of the last result.
Captured round and the persisted wallet
A new browser wallet starts with 1,000 free virtual coins. Settled balance and fractional-credit carry persist in localStorage. Reload does not replenish settled funds. Fractions accumulate before whole coins are credited rather than being discarded per spin.
A spin captures one total stake and mode for its five-symbol string. Settings and refill lock during settlement and an active automatic queue. Auto runs at most ten rounds; Stop prevents future rounds while an active spin settles. Optional manual refill is available only while idle with balance below ten. It sets balance to 1,000 and preserves carry. Coins cannot be purchased, transferred, redeemed or withdrawn.

Frequently asked questions
Does this guide represent a casino operator?
No. It supplies its own simulator and authenticates no outside commercial affiliation.
What are the random inputs?
Five independent symbols, each uniformly chosen from zero, one and two.
What is the fixed target?
The ordered five-symbol string 01210.
Which edit operations count?
Insertion, deletion and substitution, each with unit cost. Use the minimum total cost.
How does distance become raw score?
Score is max(0,3-distance): distances zero, one and two give scores three, two and one; three or more gives zero.
