Found to require some guessing by jan.#3: Logan J. Huorli (evillttlimp) on Dec 5, 2009 [HINT]
I used some kind of edge logic (maybe square logic, I guess?) and I don't know how you'd end up with a different solution now that it's done. I'm a tad confused.#4: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Dec 5, 2009

Fill in 2 opposite diagonal corners with 2 small squares of 5x5 (for example, the upper right and the lower left). Line logic will let you solve the rest, and you will end up with 2 diagonal L-shaped arrows pointing at each other and meeting at the center. You can reverse this pattern by selecting to fill in the upper left and lower right corners as well when you start. Thus, multiple solutions. There may be even more.
I solved it as in #4, but it seems to me you must guess the top left and bottom right corners are to be filled in.
