The first time we did Rectangle Slider, we were celebrating moving into this channel. But today we are celebrating... not moving anywhere? I did propose moving to #count since counting with puzzles is more interesting than counting with numbers. That motion was rejected by the GAPP board.

Rules: Move some black squares (1x1's, and not necessarily all of them) so that each group of orthogonally adjacent squares is rectangular in shape, and no square is left isolated as a 1x1. A square may only move in one straight line vertically or horizontally. Squares’ paths may not cross each other, other squares, or other squares’ starting points. Squares containing clues must be moved exactly the indicated number of cells.
