color logic lets you place the black cross initially and place a lot of dots#2: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Mar 5, 2011 [SPOILER]
edge logic gets you place 1 pixel in each of the blue 5 clues
That's why I attached the handle that way.#3: Jane Doe (telly) on Mar 5, 2011

OK I'm talking out of my butt. I was thinking that if R12C12 was black than that would make one dot too few but you can't actually see that until you get to the bottom right corner and get a contradiction. Hence the butt talk so...never mind.#14: Ailsa Hebert (bazette3) on Jun 8, 2020
