The way to start this puzzle is to remember that two stars cannot be touching and you need two in each black grouping. This means that the "armpits" of the L shapes cannot have a star, as they would eliminate that entire black grouping.

there's 9 extra practice levels that the menus don't want you to find easily

TinyBomby Feb 5, 2026 12:16 PM general

Picross/Nonograms is my go-to puzzle usually, I play that a lot

TinyBomby Feb 5, 2026 12:37 PM general

I wish the hint feature was better in stars though

TinyBomby Feb 5, 2026 12:37 PM general

It just says no specific hint available

I was thinking of polls that sucked less, this was one of them except I excluded the Cleveland show because im

Polar_ Feb 5, 2026 1:23 PM general

Its hard cause American Dad is probably more consistent but Family Guy Funny Moments

Polar_ Feb 5, 2026 1:24 PM general

Other poll idea was would you eat Punxsutawney Phil

PirateMan64 Feb 5, 2026 6:40 PM general

I'm not in the files btw

Regi Feb 5, 2026 6:45 PM general

I only like southpark and that isnt an option

Rusp Feb 5, 2026 7:06 PM general

I'd rather watch modern family guy than modern south park

Rusp Feb 5, 2026 7:07 PM general

max proved that point to me by making me watch both

TinyBomby Feb 5, 2026 7:41 PM general

I swear, why call it a "practice" if you don't give me gosh darn HINTS!

TinyBomby Feb 5, 2026 7:41 PM general

I'm completely lost here

legorhin Feb 5, 2026 7:44 PM general

notice that the rightmost column is covered by only one region

TinyBomby Feb 5, 2026 7:45 PM general

ahh gotcha thanks

TinyBomby Feb 5, 2026 7:49 PM general

finished that one then. Only one practice left.

Kribbles Feb 5, 2026 8:30 PM general

It's always the first start that sucks the most

They should've kept Mr.Garrison as Trump

I was about to vehemently disagree with you but upon further consideration you're correct. Modern south park just isn't very funny. I don't recall laughing at any jokes in it

zweirus Feb 6, 2026 6:49 AM general

Family guy at least has some funny jokes still in it despite mostly being unfunny

Rusp Feb 6, 2026 6:49 AM general

That's exactly my rationale

legorhin Feb 6, 2026 6:49 AM general

I didn't realize family guy was still going

Rusp Feb 6, 2026 6:50 AM general

Family guy at least sometimes has the occasional joke that can make you laugh, or cry

Rusp Feb 6, 2026 6:51 AM general

The simpsons is hands down the worst though

Rusp Feb 6, 2026 6:51 AM general

We couldn't even make it through a full episode

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 6, 2026 7:00 AM general

I'd love to meet someone that actually watches modern Simpsons

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 6, 2026 7:00 AM general

it's not even really nostalgic anymore

Kribbles Feb 6, 2026 8:42 AM general

Are there any weekly comedy shows that are good?

Rusp Feb 6, 2026 8:44 AM general

Yeah smiling friends season 1 + episode 1 of season 2 + like 1/2 of season 3

Rusp Feb 6, 2026 8:44 AM general

Honestly seasons 1-3 of SpongeBob are funnier than basically any comedy show though

Rusp Feb 6, 2026 8:45 AM general

(Definitely not nostalgia)

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 6, 2026 8:50 AM general

I can't think of anything within the last 5-ish years aside from Smiling Friends

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 6, 2026 8:50 AM general

and that's not really the same feel

Kribbles Feb 6, 2026 9:04 AM general

Oh yeah, you're right, Smiling Friends is great

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 6, 2026 10:07 PM general

the big final Olympic video is AI

legorhin Feb 6, 2026 10:11 PM general

I found how to watch it in japan and it has so many full event videos already but i can't find the opening ceremony

legorhin Feb 6, 2026 10:12 PM general

legorhin Feb 6, 2026 10:12 PM general

its not under the third tab

legorhin Feb 6, 2026 10:17 PM general

their day 1 recap has footage of the opening ceremony too

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 6, 2026 10:18 PM general

it'll probably be up on YouTube once it's done "airing" officially in the US

legorhin Feb 6, 2026 10:37 PM general

ok I found it but there is no VOD

that is a brutal puzzle

I retried it with sleep and its not actually that bad if you know a specific rule for the 𝟏 shaped groups that I did not realize for a long time

Regi Feb 7, 2026 8:20 AM general

Oh has the olympics started?

legorhin Feb 7, 2026 8:23 AM general

yeah and switzerland is winning

legorhin Feb 7, 2026 8:27 AM general

actually the olympics website contradicts itself

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 7, 2026 9:24 AM general

I don't think NBC has ever done that good of job with their olympic coverage

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 7, 2026 9:25 AM general

a lot of sports coverage has gotten worse in general, but I feel like the Olympics have always had issues, which has just compounded

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 7, 2026 9:26 AM general

For the French Olympics last time, there were some decent international broadcasts in English, way fewer of them this time though, as I think most things have gone to streaming via some region-locked app

legorhin Feb 7, 2026 9:29 AM general

NHK in japan might have everything

legorhin Feb 7, 2026 9:30 AM general

I opened the Italy vs Sweden hockey match and its english commentaary

legorhin Feb 7, 2026 9:31 AM general

The Patriots will win on a last minute throw from the 5 yard line for a touchdown

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 7, 2026 12:48 PM general

effectively ending the Seahawks as a franchise forever

were the patroits the team that made a 30 point comeback in the second half a few years ago?
