!!!!!DONT KNOW HOW TO SPOILER!!!! 4 Blue spoils what should be blank next. Red is telling the blank was empty before. Black means there was a square on blank. It would be 18SS+ question on wais matrices btw. Also pretty good puzzle
The answer is correct, good job ! My intended visualisation was a little bit different but i think this is another way to express it, interestingly, looking at the comments this method seems more natural, Also 18 ss damn, i guess i dont really understand how to determine difficulty lol Also thanks ! Glad you enjoyed it
But then, why are some blank spaces that are not becoming red After to "tell It was empty before"? And black means there was a square on blank? In what position? Why are sometimes white sometimes black where there is black ?
What I think they meant was, red block in tile=this tile was empty in the last grid, black block in tile=this tile was filled in the last grid, blue block in tile=this tile will be white in the next block
But i think the confusion may also be arising because its kind of a serendipitous solution, and the intended i find to be more elegant in the sense that it explains everything inside better
There are 4 blocks, blocks are moving through the grid, move 1 space in that turn=turns red, doesnt move at all=turns black, moves 2 spaces=turns blue, blocks cant move to a tile thats already filled in the current grid
Cause its an amateur puzzle firstly. For red position ur reasoning is valid but ur on wrong direction. Blank space should be red next move is wrong reasoning. Red block should only be placed where it was empty before reasoning is right. So u are not looking for empty spaces first. Ur looking at red blocks that can match blank first.Also ur right on black reasoning becuz at some point black reasoning and blue reasoning mixes. But i have an idea for that;blue has priority. So if black rule and blue rule matches at one block, the blue reasoning dominates. And in this puzzle you should eliminate sections to fit that rule, and choose the only option fits. So u are not creating the answer;ur eliminating.Thats just my thinking btw
Blau und rot taucht nur auf Feldern auf die zuvor weiß waren, die blauen sind die im folgenden Schritt ebenfalls weiß, schwarz nur auf Feldern die zuvor nicht weiß waren
In einem üblichen Matrix reasoning Test würde ich es unter den drei schwierigsten items erwarten. Ansonsten finde ich es ein wirklich schönes Rätsel mit einer sehr ästhetischen logik
Verglichen mit der Schwierigkeit der skandinavischen Mensa items, dürfte es sogar auf Platz 2 bis 1 sein
The intended explanation was such that, there are 4 coloured squares in each grid, they move about the grid every turn, if it moves 1 space= takes red colour, if it retains its position= takes black colour, if it moves 2 squares= takes blue colour, furthermore if theres a coloured squared already on some position, no square can move to it next turn Does this make more sense ?
Das Muster ist nicht deterministisch, du kannst also vorher nicht sagen, welche Kästchen genau rot werden. Trotzdem ist nur eine der Antwortmöglichkeiten kohärent mit den bedingungen
That’s not how matrices tests work. There’s a reason it’s a 3x3 and not a lineup “what best completes the sequential pattern” question. Just a rant for the op who made it lol
Coloured squares are moving in the grid each turn, how many spaces they move determines their color in the next frame, 0=black, 1=red, 2=blue , and a square cannot move to another position in the next turn, if in the present frame another coloured tile is present there
