Nice to see another puzzle from you. I tagged you as the "Puzzle Master" to make it easier to not to miss your next puzzle. :-)
I'll have to take a look at this one when I have some spare time...

Now you're making me feel like a fool that I haven't figured it out yet... :-)

I haven't been doing puzzles a lot lately, so I guess I'm out of practice. Not that I have really been involved in the puzzle community (just here on SG), so it may be a common type, but I may have never seen one like it before.

it's a very common one, believe me, just with a little twist :) (I actually used the same type of puzzle last time in my event - in a different way, of course)

Well, I think I know what the numbers are supposed to be, but some of the numbers are too big to be valid.

Don't forget that the numbers are in two different colors, that changes the rules a little bit...

Ahh, I was aware of that variation but ruled it out because I didn't think you were that devious. On to the next part, or should I say next punishment? ;-)

EDIT: Bump for solved. Everyone should experience nichchanger's great puzzles! I would even suggest you go back to his other puzzle events and solve them as well (even though the GAs are long gone) if you enjoy good puzzles.

So I got a solution, I think, but I need a tiny little hint: from where?

I think I got the 1st hint but that drawing part is messing with me :P

The second hint really helped since I finally know what this puzzle is about (before that I was drifting in an entirely different direction), but for some reason I'm having trouble with doing step 1 the right way. Hmmm...

a free game practically

If you're a genius or already know how to solve this kind of puzzle.

Even with the hints I have no clue how to even begin to solve this kind of "puzzle". I'm amazed at the people who were actually able to solve this, would love to see the solution unless of course you don't want to reveal it afterwards.

I was exaggerating a bit, of course, to lure people in:)

But as I tried to create something entirely new here, I dare to say nobody knew how to solve this kind of puzzle... I posted the solution, maybe you'll see it wasn't that difficult after all...

Ah knowing it was a nonogram you were looking for would have been a huge leap forward. Even with the solution it took me a while to get it, figuring out by yourself that you'd have to make a 5x5 alphabet square seems very hard to me. I'd still say it's a pretty difficult puzzle because you have to make pretty big logic jumps, especially if you had no hints. With the 3 hints it's a bit more manageable. Hope one of the earlier solvers won it because they deserve it if they could figure all of that out by themselves.
