This BBDB hasn't broken because I haven't been able to bend it much.
After an XY (385), Hidden UR (25) and X-Wing (3), I find myself at an impasse here:

Marty,
I have made five moves todate and am stalled but still trying. The moves include your xy-wing 3-58 and x-wing 3, plus xy-wing -125 with a pseudocell 12 pincer, a potential xy-wing 13-5 with an extended vertex, and a w-wing on 24. My current code is as follows. Code: | *--------------------------------------------------------------------*
| 5 129 123 | 139 18 4 | 1289 7 6 |
| 134 8 6 | 2 7 39 | 149 159 345 |
| 1234 1249 7 | 159 158 6 | 12489 129 234 |
|----------------------+----------------------+----------------------|
| 24 3 245 | 8 9 1 | 7 6 245 |
| 1248 6 1248 | 7 3 5 | 1249 129 24 |
| 7 15 9 | 6 4 2 | 13 35 8 |
|----------------------+----------------------+----------------------|
| 138 7 128 | 4 6 38 | 5 23 9 |
| 6 25 258 | 159 125 389 | 23 4 7 |
| 9 24 2345 | 35 25 7 | 6 8 1 |
*--------------------------------------------------------------------*

This code is very similar to yours except I have 3 move (useless?) deletions and I have r9c2=24, not 45.
I would not be surprised if a common move would solve both our problems.

Marty, I found a forcing loop in r68c27 which deletes 2 in r8c35. Then a kite on 2 deletes the 2 in r1c7, but I am again searching for the next move.

I DID IT!!!!
My last move was a conflicting chain (terminology?)
(3-1)r7c1 = (1-2)r7c3 = (2-3)r1c3 = (3)r9c3; r7c1<>3.

Ted, I stole your XY-Loop, then found a Finned X-Wing (2), then hit the wall again. I'm ready to punt on this thing unless I can use Medusa. |
