Did anyone find todays puzzle semi-symetric?

I noticed that some of it was symetric. When I started it I noticed som symetrical numbers. The ones I payed more attention to the corners.

Do you mean the puzzle itself, or the solution? Because all of the puzzles on this site have some symmetry in the layout of the numbers...

I noticed a pair of 233 corner patterns.

Can't believe it took me so long to spot that anti-highlander up the top! Turned a straightforward puzzle into a real uphill struggle, only noticing the easy way once I got the top of the hill and that was the only thing left to do.

Are you referring to this:


Yeah, that made things much easier once you know that a line has to enter that 2 from the top.

You probably noticed it this time because it showed up in the corners. That's where you normally look for some patterns in the begginning.
