Thanks for a must have entry that I thought was forgotten!
I was able to finish this puzzle with a lot of difficulty and enjoyed seeing him come to live.
As you said we'll wait for the experts.

Found to be logically solvable by Gator.

Yeah !!!
#8: Jota (jota) on Dec 28, 2010
No patience today.
#9: Byrdie (byrdie) on Dec 28, 2010
Thanks all. Jota, I'd happily share some of my patience with you.
#10: Jota (jota) on Dec 28, 2010
And I'll appreciate it Martin!

I am so stuck on this. I've been working at it for three days. When I get to the point that I'm too frustrated (lost all sense of peace), I save it and wait and come back to it later. I am making slow progress, in spite of almost no help at all from the L key.

The logic required for this puzzle is a little beyond my capability. Hopefully I'll finish it... later.
#12: Byrdie (byrdie) on Dec 29, 2010
Good luck T. I hope it's worth it when you're done.
#13: Gator (Gator) on Dec 29, 2010
T - I'm not sure if I have the patience to detail out every move I had to do to solve this one, but I would be glad to give you a way forward when you are stuck if you post an image.
#14: Jota (jota) on Dec 29, 2010
Just keep on going T. you've been to tougher things ...
#15: Teresa K (fasstar) on Dec 30, 2010
That's okay, Gator. I'll just keep plugging away.
#16: Michele (michiekay) on Dec 30, 2010
Wow. I feel like I've accomplished something today. Thanks for the puzzle.
#17: Teresa K (fasstar) on Dec 30, 2010
Whew. Finally. I chose a place where I KNEW it should be filled in according to visual logic (which is NOT true logic but I'm sure a lot of people here use as if it was real logic) and had to think ahead three steps. That really strained my brain. :-) Then the rest solved easily.

Martin, I like how you used the blue shading to make it solvable.

Jota, I too was happy to see that someone did this one, but I was curious as to how it would be tied to Kate and Bob.

Cleverly done, Martin.

really hard. solved by logic alone. Nice image.
#22: Byrdie (byrdie) on Feb 18, 2014
Thank you very much. It was only intended to be a good image and not difficult although I will admit it really took some brain busting for me to solve it when I was testing it.

It's always bothered me a little bit that it's listed on the honors page as "for experienced solvers only."

Too tedious to finish - lots of guessing. Looks as if it might be a neat image.

When it showed up again in the home puzzles I read the other reviews and decided to go ahead retry. Sorry I did. Still very tedious and a disappointing image.
