For A Few Circles More (fillomino)

For A Few Circles More by Skeptical Mario

This is a sequel to A Fistful of Circles. I recommend you first play it, or watch Simon's solve on Cracking the Cryptic!

Rules:

Fillomino - Divide the grid into regions and fill each cell with the size of the region (in number of cells). Regions of the same size cannot share a cell edge. One region border (between R10C8 and R10C9) is given.

Reverse Counting Circles - A number appearing in a circle indicates how many times that number appears *outside* of circles. (There is no limit on numbers that never appear in circles.)

I hope you enjoy the puzzle! :-)

Lösungscode: For columns 3 and 9, enter the number of sequential cells in each region. Use no delimiter for regions and a dash - for columns, e.g., 2234-222122

The given region border looks to thick on CTC

This had some beautiful logic, and the play between numbers needing to be in or to avoid circles was very clever. Enjoyed this a lot.

This is a really inventive approach, set up beautifully by some deft cluing. Not having seen the Simon solve you referenced, it took me a minute to really understand the reverse counting principle, but once I did i really appreciated how solid the flow was here. Great puzzle, thank you!!

That was absolutely fantastic fun. Really novel logic and a great flow. I thought I'd broken it a couple of times (including trying to enter the solution code) but it always turned out that there was another possibility I'd overlooked. Looking forwards to the next one!
