Black text on a black background

A few scenarios:

1. Poor planning
2. A puzzle's answer awaiting reveal
3. Fully intentional...as unlikely as that may seem

It's tragic if #3.

Sad if #1.

And inspiring if #2. Unless the puzzle's instructions are just as poorly designed.

In other words:

• Remember, contrast creates interest, but so can nothingness...as long as something else clearly suggests its potential significance
