Hmmmm. I don't remember this one. Perhaps it was corrupted in the crash? Or I was drunk?#2: Jota (jota ) on Aug 17, 2019
I vote for drunk ;-)#3: Ron Jacobson (shmily999) on Jun 9, 2020 [SPOILER]
Ahhhh....This is Santa Claus falling off the side of the earth. I guess I may have been a bit tipsy when I created it!#4: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jul 6, 2022
Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by blurglecruncheon.#5: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jul 6, 2022
Found to be solvable by line and color logic alone by blurglecruncheon.#6: Andrew Schultz (blurglecruncheon) on Jul 6, 2022 [HINT]
Ugh ... I slipped when I re-re-checked my work. It is definitely line/color logic only.#7: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on Jul 8, 2022 [SPOILER]
It is solvable with line and color logic alone.
I got to where R5C5 through R10C10 are undefined, but I didn't notice C5's black 1 had to be in R5. Then R8C6 is red.
What threw me off was the 1-1 and 2 in columns 5 and 6. It looked like smile logic. Sorry for the confusion, folks.
Also, Ron, thanks for the explanation.
Please Ron...I am still not seeing it...can you explain further? Green thing? Blue thing? Orientation? I loved solving it...I just want to seeeeeeeee it!
