Puzzle Description:

LEGO was submitted for patent July 28, 1958. It still is made to the same specs so all LEGO works together from then to now.

#1: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jan 28, 2018 [HINT]

After careful line and color logic
el 6 r15 = c22-23, c32 w
ll & careful cl gets most of the rest leaving 44 unknowns in the upper left
el 4 c2 places it
ll & cl to finish.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

Also from Uncle Wiki: [The name Lego is] derived from the Danish phrase 'leg godt', which means "play well"

Awesome solve!

Tough solve. I saw it early on, but still had to pick at it one at a time.

Just saw a Lego documentary on Netflix.
Apparently the creators pronounce it "LEE-go" but I always had heard it pronounced in the USA as "LAY-go" but what do we know.

Nothing hurts quite like stepping on a Lego brick in the dark...
One very smart guy is creating slippers made of Lego, so if you step on a stray brick your foot doesn't get hurt - you just get a little taller.

I've always heard it pronounced "LEG-o" by Americans. The European pronunciation is similarly with a short e, but the European short e is about halfway between our e and our ee.

Ahh, the old Egg vs Egg. My husband teases me for pronouncing them like AYG (or EIG, for you pre-vowel-shift folks), but what can I say? I grew up in Texas and Alabama.

Great illustration. Tough puzzle. Fun solve even though I did guess a couple of times.

one of the best. Logically solved.

LOVED the solve!! This is one of your best puzzles....I really had to work at it...fun, fun, fun....thanks!

On a somewhat related note, every time I see an ad for LEGO City, I want to pronounce it like Velocity.
