I make fucking puzzles all day everyday, thisāll be a piece of piā¦
ā¦what dafuq is that?
Worked out how to do it, but canāt do it now. Will complete at home.
Itās going to be a QR code, I know that much.
So Cherts, me olā BA mucker, whatās going to be your methodology?
My attention span hasā¦
Methodology (or at least the way that I would approach it):
Start by finding all the columns and rows in which the total of black squares plus spaces between the blocks is equal to 25, with each space being only a single square. For example, the fourth row up from the bottom is 1 3 1 3 10 2, which adds up to 20. There are six blocks, so there must be five spaces, each of which can be only one square. Furthermore, the black blocks must start and end at the edge of the square. Even with no blocks already filled, this row fills itself.
Thatās as far as Iāve looked yet - looks like itās been a popular puzzle, as GCHQās web site seems to have stalled! But once youāve done all the rows and columns which are as easy as the one Iāve dissected, the rest will begin to take shape. This may, of course be overly optimistic, but youāll only find out if you attempt to do it.
If I can get onto their web site at some point I may well have a go - I assume it can be done online.

Sneaky.
Fowllyd gets my vote for new site intellectual. Even if heās blagging it, he sounds impressive.
Itās Picross with a 25x25 grid.
Thatās how I started and, believ me, itās not very simple after that.
Knowing itās a QR code makes it slightly simpler too as 3 of the corners are filled in already.
