Classed as a diabolical but it really isn't.

Agreed Norm and they used to be pretty reliable - this is about the 4th one in the last couple months I've encountered and I'm not a regular.
Think I'll fish out the extreme and see what that's like.

Over the years the Diabolicals for me have ranged from too easy to too hard. But I think the same can be said for many others as well. This one took an M-Wing on 67.

Are you guys keeping your solution a secret? Laughing

An XY-wing 6-78 does it.

Pretty high tech and exotic compared to pencil and paper in cold, drab, Rochester, NY, USA. Sad

You know Marty at least you could see what you were doing! Laughing

The Blackberry is too small to email, too slow to run any decent programs on and (for my eyes anyway) too hard to read.

As others on this board have said before, those who solve with p&p deserve the utmost respect.
