Found to have multiple solutions by infrapinklizzard.#2: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jan 31, 2023
Found to require lots of guessing by infrapinklizzard.#3: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jan 31, 2023 [HINT]
The 9 in c6 and the 4 in c7 can be in two positions. When in the wrong place, the 3 in c8 and the 2 in c7 can also be in two positions. That's three solutions right there.#4: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Feb 1, 2023
There's another set like that in the lower left giving another set of 3 solutions; combined that makes 9 solutions so far
there are at least eight blue sets that can be exchanged giving (2^8=) 256 more solutions; combined with the others is at least 2304 solutions now.
I think I can stop counting.
Hm. Some of the puzzles with multiple solutions were not restored correctly, and I think this is one of them. (I didn't try solving it -- I peeked at the solution.)#5: ray waleski (enigma) on Oct 23, 2023
Would anyone be willing to share their solution for the columns with only 9 each?
