I couldn't figure it out before the reveal. Maybe it was hard.

And one I made

Got it after about 15 goes, but then accidentally reset the board before I could hit "share". Grrr!

I'm up to 8 attempts and only have one line so far. I think I can see another but it continues to elude me.

Guessing it's concentration? I know of the term very vaguely, I think from Scott Turow's book about his first year at Harvard Law, 1L.
