This is a very nicely designed puzzle, Carrie. Just challenging enough to be fun, and a nice image that is recognizable. No guessing required.#3: Minnie Fuerstnau (m.fuerstnau) on Jul 18, 2010
Harder than I expected when it first loaded; thanks!#4: Gator (Gator) on Jul 19, 2010 [HINT]
I was able to get about 80% through with normal logic. Looking at rows 38 and 39, we need to finish out two 2 clues. Both cannot be in column 38, so R38C36 or R39C36 have to be filled in. Since one or the other must be filled in, then we know R38C36 will always be filled in based on the 12 clue in column 36. Normal logic for most of the rest, then smile logic at the end (as bugaboo stated).#5: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jul 19, 2010
Very challenging puzzle. Thanks!
Found to be logically solvable by Gator.
