No apology necessary Kurt buddy,and thank you for doing it and for the compliment.:)#2: Thomas Genuine (Genuine) on Nov 1, 2013
I don't remember exactly how, but I could solve Aldege's original version, too. :)#3: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Nov 1, 2013
Thomas, have you seen puzzle #23000? Is that a character that you and Ann know?#4: Jota (jota) on Aug 10, 2016
Awesome!#5: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Feb 6, 2021
fun to solve. nice.#6: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Mar 16, 2021
Awesome image. Very tough solve. No guessing, but lots of "deep look-ahead".#7: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Mar 20, 2021
no, no deep look-ahead. it is tough. but sometimes a square is forced to be black or forced to be white. this one is hard to see and it's too big to see easily. but it is there. there is no deep-look-ahead. it's all simple line logic#8: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Mar 20, 2021
Al gave you something that couldn't solve. but I liked it. I coulda tweaked it to make it easier. But I refuse to vary too much from his original. I only made it solve#9: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Mar 20, 2021
and no..no deep. it is all line logic#10: Ailsa Hebert (bazette3) on May 18, 2022
Awesome puzzle! Loved the solve! Thanks!#11: Valerie Mates (valerie) on May 18, 2022
Has anybody seen Kurt? He hasn't been on in a while. I hope he is okay!#12: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on May 19, 2022
He posted on my Facebook page, a few months ago, I think. I'm lousy with time. :)#13: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on May 22, 2022
I'm fine. Just very busy...I work outdoors, and you have very small widows to get things done. For ex, you're not messing with a sand trap in July. it's too damn hot and you're not doing it during play. you won't get anything done. Regardless, traps done, greens done, irr system is up to snuff. collars and fwys are good. Added 165 heads(that's enough to cover 105 acres). I've got 7 more tees to build, and I'll try to pop by more. give me to the 4th of July. then I suppose I'll be out of a job....lol#14: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on May 22, 2022
there won't be anything left to fix. this club has 36 holes....or it'd never have taken 3 yrs for me to fix it. but the company owns 3 more. I have the sneaky suspicion that they try to make me go fix the other 3. and I'll tell em where to shove it#15: Valerie Mates (valerie) on May 22, 2022
Good to hear from you -- I'm glad you are okay and just busy!#16: Jota (jota) on May 23, 2022
Ditto Valerie! Keep safe!#17: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on May 24, 2022
:). glad to know that you thought of me. see ya soon#18: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on May 25, 2022
Yay, proof of life!#19: Norma Dee (norm0908) on May 28, 2022
Good to hear from you Kurt. It would be a sad thing if we did not see another Kurt puzzle as you are among the best and your quirky sense of humor would also be greatly missed. Good luck. As a former golfer (too old now) I really appreciate your efforts. Trying to play on a poorly tended golf course is not a fun thing.
