Thanks, Valerie, for getting the site debugged, so I could add a new bug!#2: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Dec 1, 2019
Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by valerie.#3: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Dec 1, 2019
Well, I haven't actually fixed anything -- just submitted a ticket to our host's support people to ask why the database is having a lot of errors and timeouts. And the error log is still showing new error messages.#4: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Dec 1, 2019
Anyway, I'm glad you were able to post a puzzle!
I'm allergic to bees. But not this one. It's very nice. But don't tell him he shouldn't be able to fly. He'll have a nervous breakdown. Just like the centipede when someone asked it how did it know which leg to move first.#5: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Dec 1, 2019
@#4: That's an easy one. The centipede instinctively knows to put his best foot forward. ^-^#6: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Dec 2, 2019
LOL Aurelian.#7: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Dec 2, 2019
I don't know why we as kids thought this was funny, but we did.
What goes 99 clump, 99 clump?
A centipede with a broken leg.
Ha! That's terrible.#8: Teresa K (fasstar) on Dec 2, 2019
Excellent puzzle, Kristen. Even though I knew what it was going to be, I enjoyed the solve and was impressed with the great image.#9: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Dec 3, 2019
Thanks :)#10: Gator (gator) on Feb 18, 2020 [HINT]
Lots of cool line logic at the beginning to get quite a few more dots and some blacks.#11: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Feb 18, 2020
After that, edge logic on R1 makes R1C1, R1C10, and R13-17 dots. LL to finish.
Great puzzle!
Thanks, and welcome back!
