I'm trying to reconstruct the WCP. # 162 was a tribute to Jan.

This is logically solvable, it just requires looking a long way for where colours aren't

Tricky color logic, but no lookahead or guessing is needed. It will definitely help to mark your whitespace, and mark off the clues you know you've used up as you go. Look for intersections where a row only has one color left and the columns don't have that color, and vice-versa. Also look for places where larger clues will fit.
