good advice

I found it to be logically solvable, with edge and color logic.
#3: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Feb 19, 2011 [HINT]
i used contradiction logic on the black 3 clues in columns 12 and 13
then the red at the end was a little more tricky but i dont think i had guess

See puzzle # 11309 (your own puzzle!) :-)

OK. I would say that I'm getting forgetful except that I've always been this way. I will say that I like this one better. The feet are better proportioned.

I did one similar with a guy in a box. I'd have to hunt through to find it. I think I'm coming up on 250 puzzles.

I've seen this guy before - he's still holding up the wall. :-) Fun puzzle.

I got the contradiction logic on the black clues okay, but after placing 6 reds in the center, I was stuck. I couldn't see any color logic or internal edge logic that would not be guessing. Of course, at that point it was fairly easy to see where it should go, but that's based on visual assumption, not true logic.

Fun puzzle; nice solving.

Completely solvable with logic.

87% with helper and then line logic.

Now if there is a red at C13R7, we can't place the red 2 in R8.

Then if there is a red at C12R7, then the red at C13 can't go anywhere.

Line logic.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by blurglecruncheon.
