Now I have "Dear Prudence" stuck in my head. :)

i found this one very challenging
was it actually that hard or did i just miss something easier?
#4: Minnie Fuerstnau (m.fuerstnau) on Sep 27, 2011
Ditto, bugaboo; thanks for making me feel less incompetent!

Nice picture.
#5: Marie-Louise Ambrey (marz71) on Sep 27, 2011
Yes, it is challenging bugaboo, Im glad you said so, I went and solved this one two times myself, just to make sure it was solvable by logic, and it was a little easier the second time, but it still drove me batty. I have been taking notes from Gator!
Thanks all :)

This was the most difficult puzzle I have solved without using hints. But the result was so worth the effort. Really cute image, Marz!

Sounds like good logic to me Kristen :)
Thank you Teresa :)

Gator, I wish I could show you how I did it, I solved it 3 times just to make sure it was logically solvable, but it's hard enough for me to follow the steps to solving a puzzle at the best of times, I don't think I could explain how I did it.
#15: Teresa K (fasstar) on Sep 30, 2011
I would not say it was too much to keep in my head as I would say it was complex and took a lot of thought. But quite solvable. And quite enjoyable. :-)

hey gator at the point where you used edge logic to get a dot in r20c2 (posted at the end of comment 11) you can actually get more than that; you can get another dot in r19c2 with only 1 move look ahead (look what happens at r17c4)
then there are a few more hidden/subtle dots to be placed but it solves out with line logic the rest of the way (except for the smile logic at the very end)

No guessing. Challenging puzzle. Thanks for sharing it.
#19: Marie-Louise Ambrey (marz71) on Oct 2, 2011
Thanks Augustus :)
#20: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Oct 4, 2011
Found to be logically solvable by gator.
#21: Gator (gator) on Oct 4, 2011
Thanks for the help!
#22: Marie-Louise Ambrey (marz71) on Oct 4, 2011
Yay, thank you Gator, got the ? away :)
#23: Jota (jota) on Mar 25, 2012
It most be one of those weird days, it solved easily for me and now I think I did something wrong, because it should not be easy.
#24: Marie-Louise Ambrey (marz71) on Mar 26, 2012
You are just super intelligent Jota, live with it :)
#25: Teresa K (fasstar) on Mar 26, 2012
I was thinking the same thing. :-)
#26: Jota (jota) on Mar 26, 2012
;-) Thank you girls!
