Yep, this one was very tricky. I ended up using a lot of visual logic (this square can't be red, because that would be outside of the triangle), but I trust you that there were logical steps to take. :)#4: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on May 9, 2013
Tricky can be good. I was ready to move on after the fifth solve, tho.#5: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on May 14, 2013

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.#7: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Jul 19, 2013
solved!!! (with a couple of reverts)#8: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jul 19, 2013
Congrats, Vaggelis. It's a tough one!#9: Linda Martin (ilovethispuzzle123) on Nov 25, 2013
very hard but beautiful. kind of sparkly when you view it from a distance.#10: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Nov 26, 2013
Thanks, Linda. This is one of my hardest, and that's saying something.#11: portafolio12000 (portafolio12000) on Feb 19, 2014
DifÃcil, pero puede resolverse lógicamente con un par de suposiciones para asegurar la forme de contactar de las rojas arriba y de las azules abajo a la izquierda.#12: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Feb 19, 2014 [HINT]

Too tedious for me at this time.#14: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Apr 27, 2018
I tried it again and find that it is still too tedious. Great amount of work seems to have gone into its design though.#15: Velma Warren (Shiro) on Jun 26, 2019
Not fun.#16: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jun 27, 2019
It's super fun for the logic wonks. ;)#17: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jun 27, 2019
Kristen, are you saying it's wonky?#18: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jun 28, 2019
Now that you mention it. ;)#19: Bill (PopPop) on Mar 19, 2020
Excellent puzzle. I would have considered it "deep look ahead" There were several places where I I made an assumption, then disproved the opposite, and some of those required many steps before arriving at the disprove.#20: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Mar 19, 2020 [HINT]

I've had this saved as a partial solution for a very long time. I recall picking it up a few times but remained stuck. Just now I took another stab at it, moved some pixels around, and solved it in about ten minutes. Too bad it took me ten years before those ten minutes to get my head on straight.#22: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Nov 23, 2024
I love your puzzles, Joe. Often a challenge, always worth the outcome. Thank you!
isn't it funny, how the puzzles that were SO HARD to solve when we first started solving, are now [relatively] super easy?#23: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Nov 23, 2024
Good job, Lollipop! I'm glad you liked it. This one is still hard, I'm pretty sure, lol
