    Poor description! nth pick stands for number of rounds and it also stands for the position of the element you have to return after completing the rounds!

    This taught me quite a bit about writing tests. Very clever.

    Thanks for letting me know. I just fixed that, and made the random tests be more random. Your solution should fail most of the tests now.

    Your random tests are vulnerable to input modification.

    I see. I changed nth to nthPick and added a few examples. Does that clear up any confusion?

    The thing is that it's not very clear what nth means:

    list: abcde
    
    nth = 5 -> e
    abcdeedcbaabcde...
        ^
    nth = 9 -> b
    abcdeedcbaabcde...
            ^
    

    nth actually means something like above rather than things like "nth round".

    Don't snake drafts act the same for larger sets as they do for smaller sets? E.g., abc...xyz, then zyx...cba, then abc...xyz and so on?

    Are the test cases not doing that?

    I think you need to update your description on how a snake draft is formed after each round for larger sets.

    For this to be any sort of challenge above very-beginner level, it needs a real challenge: something unexpected or weird that the warrior will have to deal with. In its current form, it is far too simple.
