Puzzles without any white in them at all aren't puzzles. Filling it in is just an exercise in counting. No logic required.#2: Mark Conger (aruba) on Jun 15, 2006
Should I ban such puzzles?
I don't think they need to be banned; but they should be marked "easy".#3: Leigh Cousins (pog) on Jul 1, 2006
Marked easy and film plots reproduced as fact should be discouraged!#4: ray liedtke (housepwr) on Jul 13, 2006 [SPOILER]

I think I believe in banning puzzles for being offensive. As long as the title gives the solver a reasonable warning of what they are getting into, I'm OK with most anything. I think this puzzle's title is a clear enough hint.#6: Jan Wolter (jan) on Jul 13, 2006
If the significance of the symbol is inaccurately described, then I think posting a message explaining the correct significance is a better response than deleting the puzzle.
My biggest problem with the puzzle is that it isn't a puzzle. I'm still on the fence about whether or not to ban puzzles on that basis.
I mean "I don't think I believe in banning puzzles for being offensive". I need to put something here to let me fix typos.#7: Alonso Raul De Martinez (Mark_II) on Jul 19, 2006
666 the number of the beast!!!#8: Isabella Ambrey (izzy.1) on Jun 1, 2007

These puzzles need white space to be puzzles at all. I dread the ones that have no white and the only reason I do them is because I'm working my way through all the puzzles on the site.#14: Marlise Zuckschwerdt (mawz76) on May 25, 2020
I liked it. It's fun to have an easier puzzle now and then#15: Pam Tucker (grammypam) on Mar 14, 2023
I did the puzzle, but didn't care for it. I am a Christian, so this was really creepy for me. BUT...Greater is He that is in me, than he who is in the world.
