Cool puzzle but I don't think 1 star is enough.. more likely 2 or even 3.

@kopo1 I am confident that I set this puzzle at 2-star difficulty in the beginning. However, after the average solver rating shows, my suggested rating is discarded. To get an "average" (3-star) rating, solvers on this website require significant geometry, mathematics, and/or advanced sudoku techniques that I would say the "average" solver does not typically use. However, I also believe that there is some value in continuing the standard that this website rates difficulty how "Logic Masters" would rate. So, I am not offended when my suggested rating is downgraded. Peace to you. -Will Power

All, In the rules, the German Whispers and Dutch Whispers say "On (green, red) LINES" which is the standard way to write a rule. I must admit that this standard way of writing the rule can mean one, or more lines. However, I altered the Renban rule in this puzzle to say "On THE purple LINE". This says that I am limiting the Renban to one line in this puzzle. Peace to you. -Will Power

@keenbowl, I read the renban as two separate lines as well. For some reason, my brain just made that assumption without me even considering they might be the same. Once I saw your comment, though, the puzzle flowed really nicely and had lots of satisfying logic. I'm not totally certain this needs clarification in the rules, but I don't think it would hurt.

I think this was closer to 2/5 than 1/5, but that didn't make it any worse.

This was such a cool puzzle with bunch of different logics needed.

For some reason I assumed the difference in thickness of the renban separates 2 different renban lines, but after restarting for the 4th time I looked at the title of this puzzle and realized that it's purely for cosmetic reasons and it's one single renban line, then it was smooth sailing.
Thanks for setting&sharing!
