An exercise in smile logic, required twice in this puzzle.#2: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Mar 31, 2010
Found to be logically solvable by Gator.#3: Gator (Gator) on Mar 31, 2010 [HINT]
I saw smile logic once...#4: Matt Coulter (mcoulter) on Mar 31, 2010 [HINT]
Once in columns 1-2 to start out with, and then again in columns 4-5 to end it?#5: Vicki Woods (vickicwoods) on Mar 31, 2010
I'm feeling smarter and smarter. Thanks for more small puzzles.#6: Josh Greifer (joshgreifer) on Apr 2, 2010
That's the sort of puzzle I like. Nice#7: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Apr 3, 2010
was fun ant#8: Byrdie (byrdie) on Apr 3, 2010 [HINT]
Line logic on column 2 leads to the obvious solution for column 3 - there's only 1 way to place it that won't overlap with column 2. From there, the rest of the puzzle basically solves it's self. At least that's the way it worked for me.#9: Teresa K (fasstar) on Apr 3, 2010
Fun puzzle, funny description.#10: Jota (jota) on Apr 6, 2010 [SPOILER]

here's a two-way logic version of the solve:#13: Andrew Schultz (blurglecruncheon) on Sep 12, 2019 [HINT]
- LL
- whether C1R1 or C1R2 is black, either dot in C2 will make at least C2R4 black
- LL to finish
Hm, maybe I should follow Diana W's example. I was looking for super small puzzles that would help with the basic beyond-line-logic methods. I never considered using the search engine, but I wondered how I didn't, now.
I had to GGogle to find what smile logic was, and the search sent me to a subpage in the FAQ here that I'd never looked at. So that was a bit of overkill! But it's good to knnow it's there now.
