Taking them as I found them, I had four moves.
Quote: | kite 6 with hinge in box5,
coloring on 6,
xy-wing 1-36 with vertex in r3c5,
BUG+2 establishes pincers in r9c1 and r9c8 deleting 6 in r9c6 to complete the puzzle.

After a half-dozen moves I got stuck and had to use my Medusa crutch to set up a different BUG+2 than Ted had. It was interesting in that one of the trivalue cells forced a value in the other trivalue cell, so in the latter cell, with two numbers accounted for, the third was eliminated, finishing it off. |
