Every 5x5 Nonogram

Post by hatkirby »

Owen showed me this this morning and uh oh I'm hooked:

https://pixelogic.app/every-5x5-nonogram

Nonogram is that puzzle where you have to fill in the squares according to the clues on the sides. It's also called Picross, if you ever played that. This website has every single possible 5x5 nonogram and people are collaboratively completing them all. There's a bit under 25 million of them. It's quite a bit, and a single person won't be able to make a big dent, but collaboratively I bet it can be done. They're super easy and if you like this sort of thing you can knock out a bunch of them. I've done 110! I need to be focusing on other stuff right now, but I thought I'd infect the puzzle-likers of you with the curse too.

I just came out of a trance; 100 of these solved and my lunch break 15 minutes over time
Approximately 25% of all animals are beetles. Statistically, this means if you're in a room with three other people, at least one of you is a beetle! If you're having trouble identifying the beetle, remember the acronym BEETLE (Beautiful; Elegant; Eats occasionally; Twinkly-eyed; Loving; Escaped to montana in the spring of 83 after faking their own death, starting anew as "gunne olive", a down on their luck dental nurse seeking to get away from the busy city - and the crime syndicates they owe money to - in the country as a ranch hand).

Oh no my evil plan worked too well and your employer is setting you on fire!! I'll extinguish you-- *gets distracted by nonograms*.

Look how good this one I got was:

Damn that's good to look at. One of the first ones I did was this one: https://pixelogic.app/every-5x5-nonogram#20123953

It's slightly irritating how close it is to being symmetrical

EDIT: those anchor links don't seem to actually work RIP.
It was like so:

You humor me greatly with your arrogance and contempt, a flood of accusations born from the poison of envy and smite of disrespect. I feel both disappointment and flattery these thoughts would originate from another player who has demonstrated one of a kind talent and has accomplished the impossible, yet is immune from judgment owing to their reputation, do not think your words hold more credibility just because of who you are, being more well known and what you have accomplished in breaking world records and setting ones never previously accomplished. With that being said I will divulge my thoughts on the serious accusations you have set forth.

I won't address the individual gameplay scenarios you've highlighted, as the foundation of your argument arises from jealously, this is clear when you contrast my success with your failure, being deluded into thinking you should have surpassed these trials yet cannot comprehend how someone else can claim victory consistently,
