Country : India | debmohanty posted @ 2016-03-29 4:43 PM forcolin - 2016-03-29 4:35 PM When entering the coordinates of the cells in TWIN CO-ORDINATES, is there any particular order/format we must follow? Order does not matter. We expect players to enter like J2 (i.e. first the letter and then the digit). You have to strictly follow the letters/digits given around the grid to determine the co-ordinate. There will be as many boxes as number of pairs. In each box, enter the co-ordinate of any cell in the pair. | ||||||||||||||||||

For the example puzzle, any of the following keys will be accepted forcolin - 2016-03-29 4:35 PM When entering the coordinates of the cells in TWIN CO-ORDINATES, is there any particular order/format we must follow?

Posts: 337 Country : Switzerland | Fred76 posted @ 2016-03-29 11:45 PM Right, it is Sudoku, not Latin Square. I'm happy to hear that sudoku and latin squares became different again in 2016. | ||||||||||||||||||

Posts: 8 Country : Germany | SilBer posted @ 2016-03-30 11:23 AM I still see no chance to get into one of the word search sudoku examples. Could anyone give me a hint how to start, maybe which word can be placed first? In the big one, I only got the "trivial" mini-sudoku-conclusions. In the 9x9 one, I only saw that "mocktest" has 3 possible positions and "sudokus" about 10 (I counted both directions seperate), both of course diagonal. Thank you...

Posts: 315 Country : The Netherlands | Para posted @ 2016-03-30 8:46 PM For the big puzzle, are you remembering that the whole grid is also a Latin Square? You should be able to assign all letters to the grids at which point the word search starts. | ||||||||||||||||||

Posts: 8 Country : Germany | SilBer posted @ 2016-03-31 12:39 AM Yes, I know for every 4x4 sudoku, which four letters it contains. But after this, now I have to find a word which has only one possible place, or something like that, I think? And this is the point were I can't find something to go on. | ||||||||||||||||||

But after this, now I have to find a word which has only one possible place, or something like that, I think? And this is the point were I can't find something to go on. For example, there's just one way to place NORTH (and to get there, only one pair of 4x4 boxes with N and H where you can find ORT between them). It helps to write down a 3x3 grid with the letters per box. Edited by rob 2016-03-31 2:07 AM | ||||||||||||||||||
