#1: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Aug 13, 2019 [HINT]

feel like i made this hard on myself, but here are the two advanced moves i made among the LL :)

- EL the 4 in C20, dots C19R1,5,9-14,19,20
- IEL (looking at R7) dots C17R11-13

fun solve!

Yes it would Cheryl - for stuff that's extremely hard to find!

Initial LL gets to 20%
(I think this is more or less the same as David's hint, but I find the second step in his difficult to parse.)

C20: EL marks R5, R19-20 white.
C19: Any location the 4 in C20 is placed will account for at least 2 of the 3. R1, R5, R9-14, and R18-20 in C19 are white. LL.

R7: the 4 crosses at least one of C16-17. Either of these will put white in R11-14 C17-18.

LL to finish.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by wombatilim.
