This puzzle was created for The Confounding Calendar! I had a lot of fun coming up with a puzzle for this project!

STARTING SEQUENCE

fill sat - day sum

fill 12,13,16,17 - one rest that week, no 5d

rest 10 - 10 filled would lead to two 4d on week3

fill 8 - a rest there would need to fill 5–7, which would make a 4d there, when a 4d is needed on week3

rest 19 - filling 19 would force 2 4d on week3

rest 6 - 20 or 27 must be rest (day sum), can't both be rest since too many 2x rests

BASIC RULE IMPLICATIONS

4+3*2+2*3+4 = 20 total work days

9 events

31 calendar days

11 empties, which means 2 extra empties, either surrounding or between calendar units

4d can't be on week1 (4d as to be on week2 or week3), week4 (too many gaps), or week5 (week sum)

3d can't be on week5 (too many empties created)

1 gap only on week3 (week sum)

i don't get it

This might be a really silly question but does the game let you know when you've solved it?  I *think* I've solved it but I can't actually tell :D

Hey folith, the game will let you know when its been solved. (Note that events can wrap around a week (for example, Friday-Saturday-Sunday-Monday is one 4-day event, not two 2-day events hahah)

Really lovely.  Harder than it looks but also no tricks involved, just pure logical deduction.  (As I discovered after failing several times with wild assumptions.)

Can be solved step by step!!!!

very fun little puzzle, had me stumped for a bit :D

This was a lot of fun! The realization that the rules aren't as constraining in the same ways as similar-looking puzzles was daunting at first, but that extra layer of things to think about was really nifty. I look forward to the rest of this month!
