Participant 1

Initial description: The output grid has one less block vertically and horizontally. Each corner of the block needs colored squares. The input will have either 4 squares attached together (2 on top, 2 below) or L shaped blocks. Move the shape to each of the corners.

Participant 5

Initial description: Identify symmetrical clumps of squares within the groupings of the colored squares (e.g., L-shaped groups of 3 blue squares with a total of 4 such groups or square-shaped groups of 4 blue squares with a total of 4 such groups). Reduce the size of the grid to 5x5, and place the appropriate clumps of squares in the corners of the grid.

Participant 6

Initial description: I was recreating the last 3 cells and rows of the grid.

Final description: I thought I was supposed to be creating the bottom right-hand corner of the grid, since it looked like the sections in the examples were recreating sectoins of the entire image from left-right.
