March Pentomino Month (3) - PentoMasyuPath

(Published on 21. March 2014, 12:00 by Richard)

Draw a single path, traveling horizontally and vertically, connecting the centers of cells. The path does not cross itself and its starts and ends in the cells with ‘X’. The path travels through all cells with black and white circles, following the traditional Masyu-Rules. But beware: All masyu circles are given!
In cells that are not used by the Masyu-path, the complete Pentomino set has to be placed; Pentominoes may not touch each other, not even diagonally. Pentominoes may be rotated and mirrored.

Example(using only Pentominos I-N-P-Y-Z):

Puzzle:

Pentominos:

Solution code: The number of knicks in the path; row by row, top to bottom. (Example: 22424443)

Oh man, gewohnte Denkpfade zu verlassen ist schwer, aber machen die Rätsel immer wieder zu etwas besonderem, wenn es nötig ist. Danke an CHalb für die "Hilfe".

@cornuto: can you send me an e-mail with a scan of your problem?

Verflixt, ich habe ein ähnliches, wenn nicht sogar das gleiche Problem wie ManuH. Rechts oben laufe ich immer wieder in Widersprüche. Sonst läuft alles wie von selbst. Richard, please help me.

@ManuH: can you send me a picture of your problem by e-mail?

Hmm. Ich mach das Rätsel glaub ich schon zum 10ten Mal, aber oben rechts gibts immer ein Problem. Ich bräuchte in der zweiten Zeile einen zusätzlichen weißen Kreis. Sonst würd ja alles super aufgehen. Und der Code stimmt auch nicht, also liegts nicht daran, dass ein weißer Kreis fehlt. ???

Klasse Rätsel, Richard! (mal wieder... :-) )

@Rollo: Ja, alle Felder sind entweder Weg oder Pentomino.

@pin7guin: Oben, der Rest ist wohl OK. Hast du das korrigierte Diagramm berücksichtigt?

New images for example and puzzle uploaded. Once more: apologies for inconvenience. Have a nice weekend!

Mir hats auch Spaß gemacht!

Tolle Variante, hat riesig Spaß gemacht. Vielen Dank Richard.

Well, that leaves only the option of having a volunteer for test-solving...

Hi Richard, no problem. NOONE wants a break. Errare humanum est...

To all puzzlers: the white dot in R3C8 has to be removed.
I am very sorry for the inconvenience, I hope I don't make too many people angry or upset. :-( I will upload a new image later today.
Since it happened more often that there are mistakes in my puzzles, I seriously doubt about having them tested before putting them online. Or maybe I should take a break...

Brilliant puzzle! Fortunately I haven't examined the example that close. "all circles are given" is really an attractive variant for masyus.
