Posts: 170 Country : Germany | rob posted @ 2015-11-22 6:44 AM Just to confirm: It is a consequence of the rules of 4/5 Spiral Galaxies that there can not be a 2x2 square. The example is uniquely solvable without that rule. | ||||||||||||||||||

The example is uniquely solvable without that rule. Yes. There cannot be a 2x2 square. as circles are not allowed at intersection of four cells. | ||||||||||||||||||

Posts: 241 Country : Indonesia | chaotic_iak posted @ 2015-11-22 10:32 AM Spiral Galaxies 4/5's rules aren't very elegant... Instead of "each region has exactly one circle that is the point of symmetry" and "not all black circles are given" (which are somewhat contradictory), use "if a region contains a black circle then it is the point of symmetry". Instead of "a black circle may not be on the intersection of four cells", use "regions may not be 2x2 squares". | ||||||||||||||||||

You can get some idea from the example given. We shall try to create another example. For Spiral galaxies 4/5...
