Sorry Kristen.:(#4: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Sep 14, 2012
I'm with Kristen. I'll try again when my eyes are not burning. Something in the air.......#5: Jota (jota) on Sep 14, 2012
I will keep trying my friend, so far I've placed almost all the reds ...#6: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Sep 14, 2012
Norma,i hope it's not due to my puzzle.:)#7: Jota (jota) on Sep 14, 2012
Jota,i figured it would be a toughie,Niki has only solved one other blot puzzle before,she's still working on it too,but she says she has a lot of it done.:)
Nikki HELP!#8: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Sep 15, 2012 [SPOILER]

Lol,yup.:)#10: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Sep 15, 2012
holy crap, Al! I haven't even started it yet...saw a million blots and had to check out the comments. well, here goes...#11: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Sep 15, 2012
damn it, Al! I'm revoking your blot privileges...#12: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Sep 15, 2012
great image, Al!#13: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Sep 16, 2012
(it better be after 4 hrs, 45 mins)lol
Rofl Kurt. I promise i won't make another blot like this one. I just wanted to experiment with the idea of seeing how many blots I could get in this puzzle,and still keep it solvable. Glad you liked the image. My wife Niki has spent at least 4 hrs on it so far and hasn't finished yet.:)#14: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Sep 16, 2012 [HINT] [SPOILER]

I saw all those blots and said, "No way!" I like a good challenge, but this looks a little too frustrating. Sorry, Aldege.#16: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Sep 17, 2012
No i'm sorry Teresa,I was hoping it would be a good challenge without the frustration. Funny thing is it's solvable,and now i see it's only rated at a 3.25 for difficulty.:)#17: Jota (jota) on Sep 18, 2012
I don't think this is Very Hard ***** but EXTREMELY hard it deserves **********#18: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Sep 18, 2012
Lol Thx Jota,i think:)#19: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Dec 10, 2016
At least solved. very hard, bur solvable without guessing.#20: Maida Corby (sweetmaida) on Mar 16, 2017
Very VERY hard, but logically solvable. Great challenge!!#21: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Feb 21, 2018
Started, but really this many blots make it totally unfun.#22: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Jun 26, 2018
Tried again. Got a little further but again it is just not fun.#23: derby (Derby) on Oct 4, 2018
Very very hard. I started over numerous times and I still am stuck on the sky. I believe it is solveable, but not by me! One of the toughest puzzles on the site I think. Awesome work, Aldege.#24: Velma Warren (Shiro) on Dec 1, 2018 [SPOILER]
Thanks

Wow this was hard, *almost* tedious because you're placing one pixel at a time, but the challenge was fun. I like the image, as well.#28: derby (Derby) on Oct 8, 2022 [HINT] [SPOILER]

Hardest one yet. Very fun though.#30: LoloJean (LoloJean) on Sep 29, 2023
I think this is gonna be one I pick at for a while. I'm enjoying the process!#31: LoloJean (LoloJean) on Oct 7, 2023
I keep picking at this one. Every time I'm SURE there's nothing more to do with line or color logic, I put it down and come back in a few days and find something I missed. Very satisfying, if slow solve.#32: AM (adrian) on Mar 26, 2025
I've just finished this puzzle after having it in my "pending" list for about 3 years - I think the hardest puzzle for me to solve on this site.#33: Joanne Firla (JoFirla) on Jul 26, 2025
Many of the squares required some level of lookahead, but managed to solve all of it using logic only.
Ugh. Not fun at all. Never doing another one with this many blots.
