This is another of my several innovative attempts on adding twists to classics.Starting up with a small example,just to make the rules clear.
Rules: Draw a single closed loop following regular masyu rules.symbols outside the grid indicate that the turn first seen in that direction was either in a black pearl ( indicated by the symbol 'B') ,or was right next(this is strictly a white pearl turn and not any turn that is just next to the cell containing the white pearl) to a white pearl (symbol "W") , or 'N', a turn that could neither qualify as a W nor as a B.
Solved. It was almost easy, but I wasn't sure at first how turns were counted. I settled on "is the turn specified/clued by a single visible pearl?" and that works.
ReplyDeleteHow would you clue a turn where one step goes from a black pearl to a white pearl?
its still a white turn.Black turns are always in the cell with the black pearl.
ReplyDeleteThat doesn't actually answer my question. I'm asking what a turn is called when it's in a cell that both contains a black pearl and connects to a white pearl? I mean, such a turn can be called both black and white.

'connects to a white pearl' i think you mean adjacent to a white pearl. If you are looking at the turn from the direction which sees the black pearl first,then i would label it a 'B'. If youare seeing the white pearl first,such a turn would not even qualify as a clue ,as it would not be the first turn.
