Telepathy!! I saw your posts with the ratings in the titles and thought it might work well to have the ratings as a white-out hint ... lo and behold they changed in front of my eyes!
I think this will work well! |

So far, Ted has sent a private message saying that he enjoyed recent puzzles w/o the rating in the title. After reading his comments, I dropped the rating from the title and altered today's posts to their current format. It's nice to get a positive comment from Peter on the new format. Any additional comments/suggestions?
Regards, Danny |

Three steps including one "almost".
Quote: | Type 1 UR (15)r78c59; r7c5<>15 which sets up the big step.
AXY-wing 57-8 vertex (57)r1c5, pincers (58)r2c4 & (78)r7c5 with fin (7)r2c4
If xy-wing is true: r3c5,r7c4<>8
If fin is true: (7)r2c4-r5c4=r5c5-(7=8)r7c5; r3c5,r7c4<>8
w-wing 35 r2c1 & r6c2 SL (5)r26c4; r45c1<>3 |

I don't post many solutions, but I do scope most of the daj puzzles. I like the ratings. I like to think a "b" is tougher than an "a" and so on. Salsa, BBDB, etc: nice distinctions, IMO.
Mainly, it's great that you continue to provide our daily fodder for fun, learning and discussion. What would Daily be without you??
Thanks |

Seconded!
For the record, my solution was same as Marty except I finished with a kite(5) |

I think the whiting out of the grade is an excellent compromise. I tend just to dive in! |
