US Version

It goes without saying that you need to split up any lines of people wearing caps and people without caps.

UK Version

It goes without saying that you need to split up any lines of people wearing caps or people not wearing caps.

If you're low on caps, you'll need to find another solution.

Perhaps there's something you haven't noticed yet?

Swap a few hats that you haven't tried yet. If you think the puzzle is impossible, maybe the answer has yet to be uncovered.

Did you take off everyone's cap?

US Version

You should find one person with white hair. This is decidedly not brown. Can you use this person for the checkerboard pattern you need?

UK Version

You should find one person with white hair. This is decidedly not brown. Can you use this person to create the chequerboard pattern you need?
