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". | ||||||||||||||||||

I am not sure if it has been there earlier as part of any contest. You can get some idea from the example given. We shall try to create another example. For Spiral galaxies 4/5...

I found this to be very easy. Some of the puzzles are simply too guessable. | ||||||||||||||||||
