Attempt 1: Incorrect
Attempt 2: Correct

Participant 2

Initial description: Identify the areas where many dark blue squares are connected (more than two, typically) in a way that looks different from the rest of the square. Then replace the squares as necessary to make the entire grid conform to the pattern of the rest of it.

Attempt 1: Correct

Participant 3

Initial description: Where the large blue areas were, I needed to fill in and change to blue to the correct color, in order to follow the patterns set forth in the lines that were not touched.

Final description: Follow the pattern of the lines, starting with the first color in a line. Make sure it correctly matches all the way down. You want to mainly look at the blue dots and make sure the actual corresponding color follows the pattern as above and below.


Attempt 1: Incorrect
Attempt 2: Correct

Participant 4

Initial description: The blue squares basically hide the existing pattern. You can follow the line above and transmit the colors from line to line to find what should be there.

Initial description: Fill in the missing part of the input grid by copying the color sequence vertically from top to bottom.

Final description: Fill in the missing part of the input grid by copying the color sequence vertically from top to bottom.


Attempt 1: Incorrect
Attempt 2: Correct

Participant 6

Initial description: Copy pieces of the pattern to fill in the missing tiles.

Final description: Copy pieces of the pattern to fill in the missing tiles.


Attempt 1: Correct

Participant 7

Final description: Follow the patterns to blot out the blue blotches.


Attempt 1: Correct

Participant 8

Initial description: Change the color of the blocks so that they match the other blocks in the same row, making the entire grid a uniform pattern.

Attempt 1: Correct

Participant 9

Initial description: The light blue holes in the pattern were corrected to match the rest of the pattern.

Final description: The light blue gaps in the pattern were corrected to match the rest of the pattern


Attempt 1: Incorrect
Attempt 2: Correct

Participant 10

Initial description: The solution was to create a series of smiley faces across the board. There were specific rows and columns to followed a complex pattern.

Final description: The solution involves a pattern of every 9 rows and 5 columns repeating the same colors.


Attempt 1: Incorrect
Attempt 2: Correct

Participant 11

Initial description: There is an area that is missing tiles in the input, the output fills it in based on proximal tiles.

Final description: There is an area that is missing tiles in the input, the output fills it in based on proximal tiles.


Attempt 1: Correct

Participant 12

Initial description: I'm not sure what this one is yet.

Final description: I think it was to take out the blue and return the pattern to the same as surrounding blocks.
