OK. I’m clearly missing something about doing these efficiently. I’m pretty much always double your times.

I assume you’re not talking to me? I occasionally get a fast time, but usually I’m quite slow. Partially because I spend a lot of time tagging mutually exclusive pairs, and walking through different scenarios. This is a very simple example of that from the archives, this one is from back in April:

The two colors show the two pairs, each pair with a different color:

The top corners go together, the bottom corners go together.

I look for boxes where both options produce the same color, or situations that violate one of the other hints. This one was pretty easy and I probably could have kept track of it in my head, but more complicated scenarios I can’t hold in my head, so it takes me time to walk through it like this.

Oh. I did see that you could mark multiple corners. That should help. But I didn’t read it until after this

One of the mistakes was me figuring out the right thing and having a short term memory of less than 2 seconds.

I didn’t initially process the clue about 2 people on the edges having a criminal to their right correctly.
