i think this is going to go down as my least favorite sudoku ever

i think I'm with you on that Hurshy - on try 5

it's like climbing an oily cliff with no handholds

try 7

looking promising

try 8....

my mousing has frozen twice, have had to reboot comp, this is worrisome. thank goodness for checkpoints at least.

three times. ok i figured it out, it's this stupid mouse keys thing - apple being too clever, screwing me over

phew, thank goodness that's over

restart. try 9.

grrrrr. perhaps tomorrow.

grrrr

I was lucky -- my first guess was correct (actually, two sequential guesses). Not as satisfying as solving an easier puzzle using logic.

This is not expert...it's evil.

Try 10. Got to 6 squares before the end- all in top right quarter - before getting a duplicate 2 & 8. Grrr. Evil is right.

Try 13. Started in a different place. Got near the end, duplicates. Enough for today.

Done! I ran some combinations on the middle column until I found the right one. Go figure...!

go

ugh - will have to re-start later :(
