Well I did reply in detail about a solution once, concerning a very difficult puzzle. Look near the end.

Hi Keith,

Thank-you for your reply. I guess I'll just stay off the forum if it's only for discussing solutions. I didn't realise that, and I'm sorry to clutter your board. I only came back to ...

I don't know about this puzzle being easier than any of the others in the series. The rating of 11,000+ that Hudoku gave it is - by a long way - the highest difficulty rating that I've ever seen. P ...

So let me try this one. The Hodoku rating is 1842 - this ...

Hi Ffred,

I introduced myself in a post a few days ago, and as I mentioned, I did do Sudoku every day a few years ago. I'm getting back up-to-speed now, and even the VH on this site is usually straightforward. ...

Thanks Marty,

It works perfectly Smile

Even with search engines, I'm impressed how you found a thread from 2008 so quickly!

Hi,

I enjoyed a very good difficult Sudoku today. So I thought about posting it on the "other puzzles" board. But exporting it only comes up with this string ...1............56..9.673 ...

Marty, many thanks. I've read the post you referred to, so issue solved.

In the paragraph beneath the grid, "R3C6" should read "R3C4".

Greetings. This is my first post on here, and I only registered on the site yesterday. I used to do Sudokus a lot many years ago when I commuted by train to work, but then I stopped for many years. ...
