This puzzle is completely solvable by logic alone; no guessing required.

It's different solving a puzzle when you know the end result, believe me I've found that out on my own puzzles, but yes your did require some EASY guessing.
#11: Gypso (Gypso) on Dec 11, 2007
And guessing or not it was a doggone fun puzzle Craig! :)

What a group we are... our biggest point of contention is the definitions of "logic" and "guessing." ;)
#18: Twillis (twillis) on Dec 20, 2007
YES I FLAME YOU NOW, BIG TIME!
#19: Arduinna (arduinna) on Dec 20, 2007
That's bad, istn't it Twillis? I don't know all my computer terms. Isn't a troll someone who's mean to everyone?
#20: Twillis (twillis) on Dec 20, 2007
Originally, a troll was someone who trolled (like the fishing term) for silly reactions, but a lot of people use the term to mean a mean-spririted, disruptive person, like the troll under the bridge meaning.

"Guessing," "logically assuming" and "trial and error" are interpretable phrases. Don't feel like an idiot if you had to guess, and don't feel like you are a genius if you didn't have to.
#22: Arduinna (arduinna) on Aug 10, 2008
Oh, I don't feel like I'm a genius because I didn't have to guess... I KNOW I'm a genius anyway.
#23: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Aug 10, 2008
Good to know. They say only true geniuses know that they are geniuses. The rest are morons. :-)
#24: Arduinna (arduinna) on Aug 10, 2008
I'm also modest.
#25: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Aug 10, 2008
Modest people don't say they are modest. Although for you, I can make an exception and believe you. :-)
#26: Jota (jota) on Nov 2, 2009
Craig: I hope by now many more people will understand that this is logically solvable! Thanks!

Found to require some guessing by Gator.

Thank you for getting around to this puzzle. I have had it saved in my saved puzzles file for a long time. Now I can complete it and get rid of it.

Found to be solvable with deep lookahead by jan.

I'm reclassifying this now that we have a category it fits in better.
#36: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Jul 24, 2020
Would never have guessed.
