No advanced moves required; solved by triples and pairs(basics). |

Every time someone posts that it was basics only, I tell them to do it again. I followed my own advice and still got the same answer. |

After basics:
Code: | +-------+-------+-------+
| 6 4 9 | 3 7 8 | 5 2 1 |
| 5 3 1 | 6 2 4 | 7 9 8 |
| 8 7 2 | 1 9 5 | 4 3 6 |
+-------+-------+-------+
| 1 6 7 | 5 4 3 | 9 8 2 |
| 2 9 4 | 7 8 6 | 1 5 3 |
| 3 5 8 | 9 1 2 | 6 4 7 |
+-------+-------+-------+
| 4 2 5 | 8 6 1 | 3 7 9 |
| 7 1 3 | 2 5 9 | 8 6 4 |
| 9 8 6 | 4 3 7 | 2 1 5 |

I wonder if the software at fault. Maybe it can't recognise 69 79 67 as a "naked triplet" But would recognise 679 79 67 as one! I have just tried it on Draw/play(advanced) and sure enough it does not see the naked triplet! |

Marty,
Yes,that is what I did, I have to repeat it to assure myself. Actually it is my first time to encounter a VH puzzle solved by basics since I joined this forum. |

I guess that dampens my clever two-step solution – colouring on 9 and 157 xyz wing. Sometimes the advanced steps are easier to spot than the triples.
Anyway – Happy Victoria Day ! |
