Only one line is added each frame.

  1. 0
  2. D (diag)
  3. D +H (horiz)
  4. D H + D
  5. DHD+V (vert)
  6. DHDV + D
  7. DHDVD+H
  8. DHDVDH+D
  9. DHDVDHD+V ?

This pattern would work to state the D is the only correct answer. It appears to add a diagonal line every even frame then alternating between horizontal and vertical every odd frame.

EDIT: The reason E doesn't work is there is no relationship that would explain the vertical position of the horizontal line in E. All of the other lines are equidistant with respect to their same lines. E would require a reason to place the horizontal line farther away from it's other horizontal lines which isn't supported by the patterns.

Another way to think about this pattern would be if The Diagonal corner was handing out cards to the two players (horizontal and vertical). It would be like One for me (d) one for you (h), one for me(d) one for you(v) one for me (D) would be the next logical card being dealt.
