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. |
