You don't need to bang your head against a wall over and over when you cannot find a solution because the puzzle was presented wrongly, and then head over to the puzzlers website with solid evidence of the error just to find that 5 others had already noted the issue and the designer had updated the puzzle.

If it were a different game, say Masyu, or Sudoku, where there aren't any constraints on blank squares regardless of their surroundings, then this wouldn't happen.Edderioferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14154473591728134113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2031071943178978556.post-83130039516394393782012-02-25T08:27:49.893+00:002012-02-25T08:27:49.893+00:00Interesting - the non-puzzle solving skill of cons...Interesting - the non-puzzle solving skill of consulting my book shows me that each clue there is valid, although there is exactly one missing clue at R6C3. That should be a 1 down.<br /><br />I can see that omitting it might increase the number of solutions - but decrease it!?? I'll get back to you eventually on that one? ;-)<br /><br />I'll edit the file a little later...Tom Collyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03663579809785456634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2031071943178978556.post-60499615824388341302012-02-25T04:24:55.545+00:002012-02-25T04:24:55.545+00:00Yea even I left it for the same reason.

Am I the only one who can't seem to find a valid solution to this puzzle? I could just keep making the same logic flaw, but I can't seem to find it.Parahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02367804879917808922noreply@blogger.com
