Puzzle Description:

just like the name of the puzzle

#1: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Mar 11, 2009 [SPOILER]

I used edge logic on the green, and was easily able to solve it.
#2: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Mar 11, 2009
Found to require some guessing by jan.
#3: Twillis (twillis) on Mar 12, 2009
I also ended up guessing on the green, but I may have just been too tired to make edge logic work.
#4: Petra Lassen (Stjarna) on Mar 12, 2009
I used edge logic too... but I guessed where to start to count - and I guessed right.
#5: Jan Wolter (jan) on Mar 12, 2009
I was unable to find any way to solve this with edge logic. I'd be interested in what edge you found that worked.

I went the other way, but that's basically the same. Maybe it's smile logic?
#8: Jane Doe (telly) on Mar 13, 2009
I did what Petra did and got it...but like Adam said, it might just be guessing, or whatever.

I found this puzzle to fit it's title well...no purpose in doing it.

Perhaps this could be reclassified as Deep Lookahead?
