Participant 1
Initial description: add same colored squares as side nearest the blue squares.
Final description: I thought the rule was to add a square to the existing blue squares that was the same as the side color closest to the blue squares.
Participant 2
Initial description: I tried to recreate the pattern according to the examples
Final description: there was one block I was not sure how to alter in the middle so on the second attempt I tried the other color
Participant 3
Initial description: Add whatever color is closest to the edge on to the edge of the blue square for one grid box that is closest to that color from the midpoint to that side.
Final description: Add whatever color is closest to the edge on to the edge of the blue square for one grid box that is closest to that color from the midpoint to that side.
Participant 4
Initial description: Add a square to each free-floating blue square in the corresponding color and side of the colored borders.
Final description: Add a square to each free-floating blue square in the corresponding color and side of the colored borders.
Participant 5
Initial description: Outta time
Final description: outta time
Participant 6
Initial description: Color the square adjacent to each blue square to match the color at either end of the grid closest to it from the midline.
Final description: Color the square adjacent to each blue square to match the color at either end of the grid closest to it from the midline.
Participant 7
Initial description: Attach the color of the color running vertically to the standalone colors. The color that is close to the vertical color gets the same color attachment.
Final description: Attach the color of the color running vertically to the standalone colors. The color that is close to the vertical color gets the same color attachment.
Participant 8
Initial description: placed the end color on the side if the blocks were closer to that half of the grid
Final description: placed the end color on the side if the blocks were closer to that half of the grid
Participant 9
Initial description: Borders of red and light blue and blue squares in middle.
Final description: Replicate the vertical borders on both sides as well as the blue squares between the two borders. Then, place the left border color to the left of each blue square closest to that border. Place the right border color to the right of each blue square closest to that border.
Participant 10
Initial description: Create a checkerboard pattern by alternating between the two colors in each row
Final description: Create a checkerboard pattern by alternating between the two colors in each row
Participant 11
Initial description: Create a 16x18 box. Align both ends with red and light blue blocks, respectively. Place dark blue boxes in the same spots as the test input. Then, place one red box next to the dark blue boxes on the left half of the grid and one light blue box next to each dark blue box on the right half of the grid.

Participant 12
Initial description: The color corresponding to the side that the blue square is closer to is used as an added block. The added block will go to the side that is closer to the boarder. On a tie, the left boarder will be the default, in this case the 9th middle block.

Participant 13
Initial description: Add a single colored square that is correlated with the long colored bar on the border
Final description: Add a single colored square that is correlated with the long colored bar on the border
