color and line logic just leaves some black in the lower left.

Edge Logic 2 c9 = r40 white (if it were in r39-40, it would trigger the 2s in those rows, leaving no room for the 1 in c13)

LL

Edge logic 2 c10 = r40 white (same reason as above)

LL

EL 2 r39 = c9 w (if it were in c9-10 there would be no room for the 1 in r37)

LL to finish

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

Yeah I had to do some guessing based on the pattern to get it at the end

...and a "pepper,"would be someone who peps, hence, a cheerleader...haha...good one, Joe. I don't know where my mind was this morning, but I didn't make the connection as I was solving this...but when I did, I had to laugh. Perhaps I needed this puzzle to pep me up today. Thanks, Joe! You are good medicine!

Awesome

As I was solving, and it was obvious it was going to be a pepper, I assumed it was a takeoff on the old Dr Pepper jingle, "I'm a pepper, you're a pepper...",and some poor schmuck had to dress up like a pepper ...

I like your definition much better, Joe
