Hi Prophesor,

I don't actually understand your suggestion, but it does not appear 
to account for color.  Also, if the numbers in your chart refer to 
the tiles' values, you seem to have too many of each.

Besides me not understanding you, perhaps a different statement of 
the puzzle is in order:

Arrange all the tiles into a 4 by 6 grid.  For every tile in the 
grid, ALL of the following must be true:
1) there are no tiles of the same value adjacent to it
2) there are no tiles of the same value diagonal to it
3) there are no tiles of the same color adjacent to it
4) there are no tiles of the same color diagonal to it

Apologies if I am being thick.  I am just not quite sure how to read 
your chart.

Cheers,
James
