Posts: 235 Country : Russia | Riad Khanmagomedov posted @ 2023-04-20 11:40 AM pinkagape - 2023-04-20 10:57 AM In Puzzle 6, I'm a bit confused by the "vice versa" in the instructions for Turns. Is it saying that if the loop doesn't turn and enters a cell without a circle, then it must turn in the next cell (so you can't have more than one straight in a row)? In this part of the grid, the line behaves like in the puzzle "Every second turn". If there was a turn in a circle, then the next turn will be in a cell without a circle, then again in a circle, etc. |

Posts: 11 Country : France | L00ping007 posted @ 2023-04-20 5:18 PM Puzzle 6 "It is also possible for the line to make a turn and leave the grid, in this case it can turn in the next grid before meeting a circle." Is there a vice versa too ? When the last turn before leaving the grid is a circle ? Isn't it more accurate to say : "It is also possible for the line to make a turn and leave the grid, in this case : - if the last turn in the grid isn't a circle, it can turn in the next grid before meeting a circle. - if the last turn in the grid is a circle, it can turn in the next grid at a circle" ? |

Yes, this is what is intended to be conveyed. |

"Each name should intersect with at least one other" is not the same thing, and would be redundant if all words were connected.Another 12 hours of time wasted on solving one of these with the wrong set of instructions, and this time I don't think it was entirely my fault...(Sorry for being negative. But it is extremely frustrating.)EoHeongMat - 2023-04-21 12:02 AMPuzzle 12Must all words be connected? Yes, of course. |
