Yes, this is the one that looks like a birds foot isn't it?
I didn't have any trouble with that one, some of the others
I had to redraw several times and when I used some symbols
in the wrong age they got misinterpreted as something else.
When I drew this symbol I drew four small circles first and
then conected them making sure I curved the outer lines
but on further testing that dosn't seem to matter nor does
it seem to matter if the circles are filled or not or if the
bottom ones are in line or with the middle one lower.
The only way I have been able to fail is by leaving them off
altogether (just drawing the lines) I even tried drawing blobs with
horizontal movements like one would use filling them in
with a crayon and it was still accepted.
Try drawing it differently, when the symbol I drew at the end
of Tahgira (the Ice Age) was finally accepted it looked, to me,
a lot less like the original than the ones that weren't accepted.
Good luck.
Eric
