I couldn't see a logically way into this one beyond using the very obvious symmetry. Did I miss something, or was this one rather hard?

Using the symmetry, it wasn't hard. I didn't try any other way.

I saw the symmetry early, but I like to complete the puzzles with straight numerical logic. I think seeing it from that aspect, it was a bit difficult, but still entertaining

I agree... it's just that when I use the symmetry, I move more on instinct than on calculations, which makes it easier and faster. but hey, as long as the puzzle gets done!

Sorry onion but I disagree. Instinct in the context of nonograms is I believe your brain working logically in the background- without that logic popping into your conscious brain. This is similar to speed reading or scanning where you don't read every word to yourself - but are able to understand the written word.
Because people aren't aware of this process they call it instinct.
Your thoughts?

I would call that intuition, not instinct, and it's intuition that is built on accumulated knowledge; but whatever you call it, yes, it works as you describe it. So instead of "instinct is not logic of any kind", I should have said, "follow your instinct, but check with calculations".
I follow my intuition all the time when I'm solving a nonogram; often it's right, sometimes it's wrong, sometimes it leads me away from the solution and I have to overrule it to get back on track.
And when I use symmetry, it's very mechanical, not at all intuitive: if the image is mirror-symmetrical across a vertical axis, then for every horizontal line that has an odd number of numbers, the middle one is centred on that axis. I don't see where intuition (or instinct, if you want to call it that) has a chance to come into it.

such interesting comments, thanks guys for sharing your way of thinking when solving nonograms. I agree with both of you; I meant instinct as with no need to justify the logic of my selections; it was intuition because it is based out of accumulated knowledge. If it wasn't because I've solved a bunch of puzzles, I wouldn't know that some hidden or implicit rules will most surely apply to the puzzle I'm solving. Keep'em comming

coming? :D
I agree with you, without the symmetry this would have been difficult.
I did it purely through logic, although I obviously saw the symmetry.
I am one who refuses to use symmetry, YES! it was hard.

Thank goodness it wasn't another crown, as i thought part way through!
