Quote:

If ab is a <18> pair then c=3, d=6 and x is NOT <6>
If ab is NOT a <18> pair then b=6 and x is NOT <6>

Or you could say it doesn't matter what goes in b <168> x is never going to be <6>

After basics:

Code:

+--------------------+----------------+---------------+
| b18 5 c168 | 2 d168 3 | 79 4 79 |
| 2 9 3468 | 47 468 78 | 5 1 36 |
| a1*3 h146 7 | 145 1456 9 | 2 8 36 |
+--------------------+----------------+---------------+
| 13579 147 13459 | 8 e135 6 | 13479 379 2 |
| 1359 g14 2 | f157 e135 57 | 8 6 149 |
| 6 178 138 | 9 2 4 | 137 37 5 |
+--------------------+----------------+---------------+
| 5789 3 589 | 6 458 1 | 479 2 479 |
| 1589 1268 15689 | 345 7 258 | 13469 359 149 |
| 4 1267 156 | 35 9 25 | 1367 357 8 |
+--------------------+----------------+---------------+

Then I used the chain 1*r3c1-(1=8)r1c1-(18=6)r1c3-(68=1)r1c5-r45c5=r5c4-(1=4)r5c2-(1*4=6)r3c2 contradiction (i.e. 6r1c3, 6r3c2) => r3c1 <> 1; stte.
