Posts: 49 Location: France | That puzzle was an awesome experience, thank you Jonah ! I honestly can't begin to comprehend how such a puzzle can be created, it is very impressive. The feelings when I opened the pdf, saw the matchmaker grid and thought "uh, where is the puzzle ?", then read the first line of the second page... big emotional whiplash :D (I don't know if some people expected the twist beforehand, but I was not one of them !) The entry point was not trivial (constraint between Country, and ? clue limited to 6) but I suppose I had a good intuition on that day ! After that the puzzle solved quite smoothly. I had a bit of a difficult moment in the C zone, luckily never destroying my progress in other parts ; and had to use trial and error to join several loop parts around the junction of ABDE regions in the end (I guess I started to be tired and didn't notice something logical with the masyu rule ?). I must say, after all that I was quite surprised to see it had only taken me 90 minutes, it felt like a longer journey ! | ||

Posts: 4 Location: Germany | I got another solution, could anyone check it, please? It's only different in the middle sector, starting in row 8 (key C): 213312; row 9: 11211222; row 10: 112341 and the ice-barn-clues in row 8 and 10 are visited twice. Thx Edited by oe2 2020-04-30 9:16 PM | ||

Posts: 18 Location: Canada | The ice barn clue in row 10 could not be visited twice, as the horizontal crossing would violate the Liar restriction, as it would be a room entry of length 1. | ||

Thx Oh yeah, I got exactly the same mistake... Noticing that this particular ice barn crossing is forbidden by liar rule was pretty tricky to me, that was the mistake I was searching 20 minutes for and it would definitely simplify the process of solving had I noticed it earlier. | ||
