no guessing people! if you're not sure, then don't rate solvability. unfounded "?"'s are a pet peeve....there are forum topics devoted to solving techniques, pls look into it.

el solves this one. first at bottom left, ll, rt side, ll, then bottom rt. didn't track the solve, so I'm not getting specific...but if you're not accustomed to edge logic, you've got a ways to go with solving techniques and shouldn't feel confident in rating a solve.

Well said, Kurt. First rating was a one...

Both guesses are great songs and bands.Good one Tom.I'm getting low early ratings too,then they slowly creep up.:)

Feel like a packed a bunch in a small puzz with lots of white. Fun creation. Was worried about the aiming thingee on the gun. Thought I was going to have to toggle it then remove it.

After line logic,
Edge logic 5 r5 = c1-7 w
LL
EL 3 r20 places it.
LL
EL 3 c20 limits it to r10-13 so r12 must be black and r14 white.
LL to finish

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.
