Does the non-consecutive rule apply when a V is present?
- Hello. Yes it does. - Tingo

You say the puzzle is anti-kropki, but also say not all black dots are given. Which is it?..
- Kropki, as I understand it, is only consecutive digits, which was my intention with the reference. I wasn't aware that ratios were part of the Kropki collective. I apologize for the confusion. - Tingo
Yeah Kropki dots are the little white and black dots. Anti-kropki means a negative constraint on both of white and black dots. I think you simply mean non-consecutive in the rules!
- Correct, I do only mean anti-consecutive. Again, my apologies for the confusion on my part. - Tingo
