really cute. Just a little guessing at the end on the top.

Ditto Jane - I was able to complete with a couple of tries at the top
#3: Teresa K (fasstar) on Oct 12, 2010 [HINT]
Very cute image.

Hey, guys, isn't that just simple smile logic on those 4s?
#4: Liz P (Lizteach) on Oct 12, 2010 [HINT]
I used two-way logic to solve. Very cute.
#5: Wombat (wombatilim) on Oct 12, 2010 [HINT]
#3 - I think it's more of a complex smile logic, but I'd say no guessing is required.

It is more complex than smile logic. Simple smile logic actually involves a 1 move look ahead to find a contradiction. It just happens that smile logic is symmetrical. So after using smile logic for a while we start to look for the pattern, and do not necessarily look for the contradiction any more. If you try to find a contradiction using smile logic in this case, you will have to look many moves ahead to find one.

However, there is some two-way logic that can be done in column 8 (and 13) with the remaining 1 clue. It can either go in R2C8 or R3C8. In either case, R3C7 will be a dot (and R3C14 will also be the the same kind of logic). This will then enable you to do smile logic in columns 2 and 19.

Found to be logically solvable by Gator.

i used smile logic anyway
