Found to have multiple solutions by atilganer.

Not cute. This is a puzzle with 3 possible solutions, but you chose one of the "wrong" solutions as the "right" one. I'll forgive you this once, because it's such a small puzzle. ;)

I feel like I've been "messed with".

It is at least somewhat interesting as the "solution" was not the symmetrical one.

Weird. I tried all three solutions, and the site says one is the wrong solution and two different ones are the right solution. I've never seen the programming do that before!

I just tried all three and there was only one called correct.

Interesting -- I was definitely getting two of them. I was so surprised yesterday that I went back and forth several times to check and re-check.

Perhaps Bruce saved the wrong version? Who can say?
