WOW realistic
#2: Jota (jota) on Apr 23, 2012
Al: I can't solve his right eye brow or the red. Help!
#3: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Apr 23, 2012
after initial line/color logic:

el on the black 4 clue in r5 to dot c12 (ll then solves the rest of the right eyebrow)

only the red is left now but i had to guess

Thx Tom.:)
#5: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Apr 24, 2012
I'm sorry Jota and Bug that i couldn't get it solvable. I tried reworking the red,but i still can't get it. I don't know if Sensei was able to solve it,maybe he can help,or perhaps David can.:)

Cool Nancy and thx,now can you help everyone out and tell them how you solved it.:)
#9: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Apr 24, 2012
when she said "third try" i assumed she meant that she was trial-and-erroring until it solved out...guessing...as opposed to logic.
#10: Nancy (nbarsi) on Apr 25, 2012
David is correct. Trial and error.

Thx Teresa,i agree if bug can't get it,or David,or many others,then guessing probably is necessary. Sensei was the first to comment so i wonder if he had to guess?
#13: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Apr 25, 2012
thank you for the compliment(s)

Trial and error mayhem... I lost count of how many times I used the Save and Revert buttons to get the red ones.

Found to require some guessing by gator.

You guys just aren't going to go along with my "thick edge logic." It's like a scientific Law; it's worked every time I've tried it, though I can't guarantee it will always work in the future.
#21: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Aug 2, 2012
so is this the scientific law?

I know how to use logic to solve webpbn puzzles...
When I solve them, they are completed...
I completed this puzzle...
Therefore, this puzzle can be solved with logic.
#22: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Aug 2, 2012
thx Gator for your judgement
#23: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Aug 2, 2012
The Law of Gravity does not state "what goes up, must come down."
Rather, it states that (paraphrasing) every time we've observed an object going up, it has come down. We cannot say whether future discoveries will later refute what we have inferred through observation.

Every time I've used "thick edge logic" it has worked for me. :)
#24: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Aug 3, 2012
pretty sure that that hasn't been the Law of Gravity for centuries ;)
