Diagram

I have found that I do well when I frame games. However, I just realized there is a glitch in my understanding. I got as far as placing V in the first position in the diagram. Then I framed the game based on the fact that either O or T can be in position 2. Based on that, I came up with 3 combinations: VOMFT, VOMTF, and VTOMF. I was not able to come up with VOTMF.

M can only go in 3 and 4. O can only go in 2 and 3. F can go in 4 or 5. How do we know that we are supposed to create the frames based on M?

For frame 2 with M in 4th how do we know slot 2 is R wash? the rule is _ M so i understand why R is in 3rd slot but how did we determine R for slot 2 as well? I had put P/S for slot 2 in this frame. R in slot 1 wouldn't break any of the rules and P in one wouldn't either & vice versa. In the LG Strategy Guide P was in slot 1 and R in slot 2 as well. What am I missing..?

The third rule says that "the 2nd and 3rd cars have the same kind of wash".

So once you know that the 3rd is regular, you know that the 2nd is regular. Hope this helps.
