What did U do this time? Nothing father Matthew!

just wanted to keep you guessing, Jota

This was a little toughie. This is what did it for me:

Look at rows 1-3. The 2s in those rows must be in the left half. Now look at the 2 in c5. What would happen if it started below r3?

-> If c5r1-3 were all dots, then the 2s in r1-3 would all have a pixel in c3. Thus you'd have an impossible block of three in c3.

So, the 2 in c5 must be within r1-4 and c5r5-7 can be dotted.

LL finishes.

I'm not 100% sure of this one Tom. Is it a girl swinging or doing a back flip?:)

I was thinking someone pushing someone on a swing

exact same solve as infrapinklizzard

my steps:

LL
EL in C2 blacks C2R5 (the 1-1 in C2 can't go in R1&3)
EL in R1 blacks C3R1
LL to finish

fun solve tom, thanks!

Father Matthew?

thx David, no Jota

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

David's is a more traditional solve.

thx Joe
