Puzzle Description:

Accountant

#1: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on May 27, 2021 [HINT]

After LL/CL finishes all but the red,
EL 2 r25: if it were to go in c40-41, then there would be no room for the 1 in c39. So r25c41 must be white.
LL to finish

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

This is a cool solve but I can't make sense of the image. Is it a person hunched over drawing a red line?

Edit: on later viewing the snake (adder, groan) popped right out at me!

Exquisite!

WOW, that was tedious! Lovely, but tedious. ^_^
#6: Michael Eddy (meddy) on Jun 15, 2021 [SPOILER]
Seems to be solvable without EL. The red wasn't last for me so I know I did things differently than Joe.

Great picture - it popped for me at the end. Even the adder pun wasn't clear to me until I saw the comments. I thought you were saying accountants are snakes. :)

The red definitely requires advanced logic. There is no way to solve it with line or color logic.

I started with the red so I wouldn’t have to cycle through red every time I wanted blue or green. I enjoyed the solve, especially where there was more white and it was more challenging.

So no one's said "Add-er" yet ...
