Step-by-Step Mark Proofs (Rule 1 & Rule 2)
HTC04 Big Eye Boy Entry #6

This bead is at Row 3. Column 4 stopped at Row 2, one row above → blue (≠).

  1. Column 5 goes down to Row 3, so use Rule 2: look 1 column back, at Column 4.
  2. Column 4 stopped at Row 2, one row above → blue (≠).

Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 4 stopped exactly one row above this bead.

HTC04 Small Road Entry #5

This bead is at Row 3. Column 3 stopped at Row 1, more than one row above → red (=).

  1. Column 5 goes down to Row 3, so use Rule 2: look 2 columns back, at Column 3.
  2. Column 3 stopped at Row 1, more than one row above → red (=).

Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 3 stopped exactly one row above this bead.

HTC04 Cockroach Pig Entry #4

This bead is at Row 3. Column 2 stopped at Row 1, more than one row above → red (=).

  1. Column 5 goes down to Row 3, so use Rule 2: look 3 columns back, at Column 2.
  2. Column 2 stopped at Row 1, more than one row above → red (=).

Common table reading watchout: Thinking "no bead at this row" means blue. It is blue only when Column 2 stopped exactly one row above this bead.

Myth vs. Truth

MythThe 10+ Tie cluster in HTC04 interrupts column lookbacks and forces the next derived-road mark to turn Blue.
TruthTies in HTC04 attach as green slashes without modifying any logical column count, leaving derived-road lookbacks completely unchanged.
