Thanks Avgvstvs, Wombat and Jota. And sorry, Jota, but Raven's been on my lap for the last seven months.

solved. After a couple of reverts for the left corner.
really hard.
#14: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Sep 12, 2013
Well done, Vagellis - the stats say that less than 25% of the starters finish it.
#15: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Jul 25, 2016
Gave up. Not fun.
#16: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jul 26, 2016
*I* thought it was fun, when I solved it. ;)
#17: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jul 26, 2016

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

Thanks, Derby. I am a strong proponent of not guessing.
