Just like with yesterday's post, we just wanted to mention that Puzzle Ramayan is going on now! From Prasanna: "This is a slight step up from the PANFOPCWHTTAPA series (mainly more puzzles, some variants along with classics) but there should be many easy puzzles to get into in this series too." See this post for more details: Discord message

I have a confession to make.🤫 It's common that I have to teach myself a new genre at least once a week in GAPP. Not all of them surely, but whether it's one I'm setting or someone else's that I'm testing/solving, there's been a whole lot of learning on my end. Sometimes you just want to stick to what you know, play the hits🎸 🥁 if you will. I mean, sometimes it seems like my brain is full 🧠 🙃 . Hmmmmm...full... I know! 💡 I can do something we've never done before in GAPP while still doing something we should be familiar with!

Today's GAPP is a Full Masyu

Rules: Draw a non-intersecting loop through the centers of all cells. The loop must turn on black circles and travel straight through the cells on either side. The loop must go straight through white circles, and turn in at least one of the cells on either side.

Basically just Masyu + Simple Loop. We've covered both of those before in this channel as well 😁

Today's example is actually an Eric Fox puzzle found on his blog. If you want to play around with the example, here's the link here https://tinyurl.com/ycx9r9vu. Also check out his original post on his blog here https://ericfox53.blogspot.com/2021/01/164-masyu-full.html

For a Speedy Sloth🦥 , finish in under 1:20
For a Quick Crab🦀 , finish in under 3:15
Finish with anytime at all for a Complete Condor🐦
