Results of DBG 11
Hi everyone, thanks a lot for sending me your answers! DBG 11 had multiple good solutions, here is one of them:
I received eleven correct solutions:
The winner was @doughtaker receiving 1 SBD and 6 XP. Congratulations!
I generated a random number to see who wins the 0.25 SBD. The random number generated was 11, therefore the winner of the random reward is the last person handing in the correct answer:
The random reward of 0.25 SBD + 3 XP goes to @amalinavia. Congratulations!
Today's puzzle
This is a minesweeper field. The numbers indicate the number of mines in the neighbouring cells (including diagonals).
Mines are not positioned next to each other (not even diagonally) and cannot be in the fields having numbers.
Can you spot the mines?
Hint: there are 15 mines in this grid.

Send your answer to me either as a private message on Discord (@ksolymosi#5065) or in an e-mail message ([email protected]). If you use Discord, please make sure that your Discord name is the same as your Steemit name, otherwise, it will be difficult for me to find you...

Important
Don't post your solution under the post containing the puzzle because then you ruin the game of others!
The answer should contain the identification number of the puzzle, too (for example DBG 1).
Answers should arrive until I post the results of the actual game (usually between 12.00 am and 8.00 pm UTC+1, but exceptions might occur...). This leaves approximately a 12-24 hour time window to send me your answers. (Answers arriving later will not be considered.)
It is possible to correct your answer by sending another solution, but only the last message will be considered for the reward. (So if you send the good answer first and then send another message with a wrong one, then, unfortunately, the wrong one will „participate" in the game.)
Please do not ask clarifying questions. I do my best to phrase instructions as clearly as possible. So everyone should work from the amount of information given in the post.
Detailed rules and information on the scoring and rewards can be found here and here.

Pity enough I can not. I simply do not understand how it works. Have the game on my old samsung cellphone
Try to read the instructions again... :-)
In short, when there is a 1 in a square, it means there is exactly one mine in either one of the 8 squares that touch this square. When there is a 2 in a square, it means there are exactly two mines in, each in their own square, in the touching squares, and so on.
While deciding which square the mine is in, you also have to take in account the numbers in the other squares.
And last but not least, as stated, mines do not next to each other in any way.
So imagine every number is a person who says 'I am directly surrounded by x mines'.
Good luck!
Thanks for explaining. That will keep the brain busy for sure. I will practise a bit on my phone then
