Qwerty, did you have to guess, because I didn't and the helper didn't, but someone who didn't leave a comment, rated as in need of some guessing, what do you think ?
#3: Sylvain "WCPman" (qwerty) on Sep 24, 2008
no guessing
#4: Jota (Jota) on Sep 24, 2008
Thanks I was curious.
#5: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Sep 24, 2008
that happens sometimes...not sure who does it, but it has happened to a few of mine too :)
#6: Beth (Shasta) on Sep 24, 2008
It was trickier than it looks but I don't think I guessed. Great idea!
#7: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Sep 24, 2008
I agree with all the comments.

Thank you for your entry.

This is a Todd I thought of when I was thinking Todd thoughts the other day, but I decided not to do him, I am glad you did him, good puzzle, nice and hard to solve :)
#9: Jota (Jota) on Sep 25, 2008
Thanks!

I just finished it, and I had to guess more than once. If someone is able to give me a hint, I'll try again.

I tried really hard to figure it out with logic, and I found several really tricky spots. But finally I gave up and did some save and revert-- not my favorite way to do a puzzle. What did I miss?
#11: Arduinna (arduinna) on Sep 25, 2008
Oh, and what do you mean the helper got it? When I try the helper on it, it pretty much gets stuck at the outside. I know sometimes you have to help it along with obvious stuff, and I didn't try that...

I went back to the solved puzzle, cleared it & hit the helper button & it only took it so far, not completing the puzzle :)
#14: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Sep 25, 2008
Same here, Nancy.
#15: Jota (Jota) on Sep 25, 2008
About # 13: I'm sorry, I didn't know that technique, I have never tried it. I was referirng to the "enable error checking" as the "helper".

#16: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Sep 25, 2008
LOL
#17: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Sep 25, 2008
:) it wasn't until I created about 100 puzzle that I learned about the "helper"
#18: Sylvain "WCPman" (qwerty) on Sep 25, 2008
Just so everyone is clear with the rule if Jota don't do a modification or if this version of the puzzle is not officialy solvable without guessing, we judges won't be able to accept it in the WC this week
#19: Jota (Jota) on Sep 25, 2008
Is it or is it not, I am confused .
#20: Sylvain "WCPman" (qwerty) on Sep 25, 2008
still has the interogation point
#21: Jota (Jota) on Sep 25, 2008
Yes, but who can remove it ? I'm new at this, someone included the interrogation point, you didn't guess, neither did shasta or monkeyboy , What do I do?
#22: Jota (Jota) on Sep 25, 2008
I added ice blue to my confusion ...
#23: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Sep 25, 2008
Thanks. I solved it again, and DEFINITELY had no problem at all solving it logically.

Once again, thank you for your entry.
#24: Jane Doe (telly) on Sep 25, 2008
Nice puzzle. Clever. Solvable with the changes you made. Good job and good luck! :)
#25: Jesse Matlock (sooner aviator) on Sep 26, 2008
I solved it with logic alone, but i did most of the blue and black surrounding it by pattern instead of logic. I gave up using logic alone a long time ago, when i know what the pattern is. I know how to use logic, but when i know the pattern its much faster.

I realize that since I did some and then left and came back to the puzzle, I COULD have guessed, but I don't think I did. Nice puzzle
#32: Jota (jota) on May 6, 2013
Thanks Martin and Marsha! I just got these comments.
#33: Synthia McBride (synthia) on Jul 19, 2013
Excellent creepiness.
#34: Jota (jota) on Jul 19, 2013
Thanks Synthia!
