whats this about greens?
12:02 pm
brianarn
When you click a box, you can shift+click a number to put what is known as a pencil mark. It shows up as a green number. Most people refer to them as just greens.
12:03 pm
brianarn
There's a way to mark something as red as well -- I just forget the exact approach, since most people just use greens.
12:04 pm
the_wee_man
ahhh oki - thanks :)
12:18 pm
RodeoRogue
to use reds you hit alt+click the number
12:18 pm
the_wee_man
cool, so whats the difference between green and red?
12:19 pm
davepeele
greens are possibilities, reds are not
12:20 pm
davepeele
that's why most people just use greens :)
12:23 pm
the_wee_man
ahh ok thanks :)
12:23 pm
brianarn
Well, arguably, the color is insignificant. If you prefer to mark using reds, that's fine too, it's just a convention. :)
12:44 pm
brianarn
Hmm - I just finished a puzzle (an easy, fortunately) without getting the "YAY COMPLETE" screen.
12:45 pm

Phew -- it did save. :)

I got kinda bored and decided I was curious about puzzle difficulties -- apparently the average score across all puzzles is a 1.94.
6:10 pm
brianarn
I can also say I've completed 82.5% of the puzzles, but it seems that sscore-wise, that's going to put me still just near the top of pros, not into expert yet. Kinda funny, as it means there's a lot of points in those early puzzles.
6:10 pm
brianarn
Oh wait, I misread expert def -- heh, now I feel kinda dumb. Oh well, still, gettin' there. :)
