Maybe use smth different, not just simple Black Circle :) My suggestions: ✘ - U+2718 HEAVY BALLOT X (✘✘✘✘✘✘✘✘) ✖ - U+2716 HEAVY MULTIPLICATION X (✖✖✖✖✖✖✖✖) ✱ - U+2713 HEAVY ASTERISK (✱✱✱✱✱✱✱✱) And if you think, that circle is better, better use medium black circle. It has better spacing. ⚫ - U+26AB MEDIUM BLACK CIRCLE (⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫)
