Deepika, not all sudokus need to be 9x9. There are so many variants which do not conform to this design. For example, Isosudoku, Snowflake sudoku. The only constraint we need to remember is that the digits do not repeat along the path denoted by the grey lines. Rishi | |||||||||||||||||||||

Posts: 460 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : India | purifire posted @ 2013-08-10 5:16 PM I had a question on the Bonus points. It says that all answers with a maximum of 4 wrong cells will get the bonus of 7 points per minute saved. Now I assume the 4 cells are related to the answer keys that we key in. So do we get full points for a puzzle if we key in a wrong answer with a digit mistyped or do we get partial points or 0 points for the puzzle yet eligible for time bonus?
