Dan,

I am not sure about the "great" and I sometimes even wonder about the "mind", but finding a simple, clean solution is always rewarding. Also, I gave up naming patterns a long time ago.

Thanks,

Ted

Not particularly proud of this one, but look at the potential DP on 57 in boxes 39. One of the ways to kill it is 24 in r8c89. This leads to an invalidity; r8c89<>24.

Then that same DP becomes a Type 4 UR; r3c89<>5.

Funny, I'm never ashamed to beat up on a DP Very Happy

Still, can you help me out with this one? Are you talking about AUR (57)r38c89? I can't seem to reach your conclusion.

Luke, I really don't know how to go into detail, but I tested it again on Draw/Play. R8c89 is a 24 pseudo cell which combines with r8c15 for a 246 triple, setting r8c3=7. Just making eliminations from there results in an invalidity. Is my conclusion wrong about setting r8c89<>24?

Have you ever seen a naked triple that was cannibalistic, i.e., eliminated a candidate of the triple? And what about the extra candidates in r3c89?

Marty, the deductions appear valid. Are you going for one of those "contradiction networks?"

With the 5s locked in to r8c89, IF either 2 or 4 is in r8c89, 7 would be forced into r8c3, a contradiction to the solution.

Whichever way, your move doesn't seem to be dependent on the (57)AUR.

I'm sure I'm misunderstanding your point since in my little world any triple XYZ eliminates all other instances of XYZ in the same house.

Partly that a cannibalistic elimination usually, but not always, indicates simpler logic exists for that same elimination. Mostly that you started an AUR deduction, but didn't finish with it.
