Participant 1

Initial description: There are three or four individual elements on the grid. The upper-left side is the reference element. The other elements have a similar shape to the upper-left element but are missing its blue and green boxes. The orientation of the other elements determines where the blue and green boxes are placed on the grid.

Attempt 1: Correct

Participant 2

Initial description: I thought the rule was perhaps to fill in the gaps with colors

Final description: I thought then maybe depending on how many yellow sides are touching each other will determine the color.

Participant 3

Initial description: From the examples it seems that the figure in the upper left quadrant of the grid is a kind of master figure which has to be replicated in the remaining three figures by rotating them and adding the colors so they match the master figure while still remaining rotated, which is what I attempted to do.

Attempt 1: Correct

Participant 4

Initial description: One group of blocks is already completed and use that as a guide to fill in where other blue red and green squares to complete them

Final description: One "example" block has already been completed to serve as an example and three other incomplete blocks rotated in variations of 90 degrees are to be filled in the same exact way as the completed one (but rotated)
