    That doesn't negate that they haven't been chosen yet, so there is no correct answer, and you won't be able to say any number at all for that statement. In fact, it may make you mute until the numbers are chosen as anything you say after that would be incorrect.

    will be.... impossible to know will be.... a sequence of numbers between 1 and 69

    You could be compelled to say any number of unhelpful things instead of the numbers.

    It's stil easy you just narrow down, "will be any number between 2 and 30" ok sure, "will be any number between 14 and 20", "will be 16 and 18" yep, it's def 17

    You are assuming you'll even be allowed to utter specifc numbers at all.

    Think a genie scenario would have you utterly blocked before the first syllable that could possibly be helpful.
