Step-by-Step Mark Proofs (Rule 1 & Rule 2)
HTC28 Big Eye Boy Entry #6

Column 4 has 2 beads. Column 3 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).

  1. Column 5 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 4 with Column 3, 1 column further back.
  2. Column 4 has 2 beads. Column 3 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 3.

HTC28 Small Road Entry #4

Column 4 has 2 beads. Column 2 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).

  1. Column 5 starts, so use Rule 1: compare Column 4 with Column 2, 2 columns further back.
  2. Column 4 has 2 beads. Column 2 has 2 beads. Same depth → red (=).

Common table reading watchout: Comparing the wrong columns. Compare Column 4, the one that just finished, with Column 2.

HTC28 Cockroach Pig Entry #4

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

  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 2, one row above → blue (≠).

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.

Table Reality Check

Myth vs. Truth

MythThe 10+ Tie cluster in HTC28 interrupts column lookbacks and forces the next derived-road mark to turn Blue.
TruthTies in HTC28 attach as green slashes without modifying any logical column count, leaving derived-road lookbacks completely unchanged.
