				| I also had to use three steps: color (6), W-wing (68), then color (8). Anyone do it more directly?

 Well, you did it in half the steps I used. Immediately after the w-wing, I found a Type 3 UR on <79>, which opened a Type 1 UR on <39>.  Then I saw a m-wing on <68> and finally the color on <8>. Obviously the two URs and the m-wing were not useful (but added to the fun).

				| Not me, i had a combination of UR, grouped skysraper, w-wing, xy-wing and w-wing to get a single number (a skyscraper finished then). 	  | Earl wrote: |  	  | Anyone do it more directly?l | 
 Very nice puzzle.
 
 If you dont "Disable Smilies in this post" the combination "8)" will be displayed as a smiley. 	  | tlanglet wrote: |  	  | Edit: Where did the smiley faces come from? |
