Off to the races...

Stumbled at the gate........

7 filled. Stuck. Started over to see if i made a mistake. Now I have 7 filled, stuck. Maybe I need to come back after I wake up....

nope, that's where I'm at too!

go

done with one wild guess.

Done with the help of the Lord, God bless Him.

So....what'll we do now?

Mornin smooth, I'm trying to find a way to slove this one without guessing.

hey eagle... yeah, I'm just getting going, and itlooks like a real toughie this morning

I'm hoping my coffee decides to work quickly today ;)

It's probably something simple that I'm missing. Somebody said they did it without greens......

really? wow! good for them! i'm only a couplein, so maybe I'll find something...

Keep me posted on your progress

7 in so far. lol

That's where it gets interesting.....

hehe

15 now... I just found a little help in the upper right square

You obviously know something to look for that I don't

I dunno... I'm not really up on my techniques at all.... I wish I ould give you a name of something to look for :(

done! wow! that corner must be the key. once I got that solved, the rest of the puzzle reall fel together nicely

Good job! I'm trying something that looks like it might work.

good luck eagle! I'm off to get ready for work now. Have a good day!

See ya tomorrow....

Done, I know what I did, but I don't know why I did it. So, I guess it's about the same as guessing :(

go

done

with 1 guess and greens I am afraid to say.. :)

ACK...starting over...for some reason the sudoku genie didn't like my putting two 4s in one box...LOL

blew it once, went green, took two threads to get through the long chain

Go.

Several cute little loners.

wait, are you talking about me?

No. (Yuk!) If you're cute, you're probably not a loner.

lol good point!

i am so not a loner ;)

That's my name for what DrWho calls Missing digit.

ahh, gotcha :) i figured it was something like that

Going green.

hows it going, unike? i had a break in the middle for a while but now i'm back to it and i'm pretty stuck

ha

nailed that puppy!

LOTS of green

multiple checkpoints.

Nix theme muzak

(sigh)

did you guess, limer?

done no greens - bye all

Difficulty score 50. This bring up the average score for the month to just slightly lower than the next lowest month (May 2007).

Alternating inference chains solved this one for me.

finally finished - that took me a while

I'll fess up and say I had to make one guess... grumble grumble

i'm at my in-laws for thanksgiving break. had a spare moment to get on the pc. what a day for an expert to come up. and i don't have the auto=fill on this pc. yikes. wish me luck.

needed the greens

done, done, done, about 5 restarts and lots of greens, but I made it!!!

amazing. i don't know how i did it. two guess and did it on one try.
