Participant 5

Initial description: I think the rule was to change the gray square to the color of the rest of the shape, then attach the next shape where the gray square would be, using the new color in the test output.

Final description: First you need to make the grid the same size as the test input (3x11). For the first shape, you change the gray box to the same color as the rest of the shape (red). The next shape will connect where the gray block was, but you change that gray block to the color of the remainder of the shape (blue). Continue changing the gray color to the shape's other color, connecting at the most outward square. Finally, you delete the black column at the far right, so the colored shapes are flush with the right and left sides.
