Am I the only one who don't get enough information from the feedback summary page?
Which set of puzzles did you like the most? There are 5 choices, but diagram shows only 3 colours and it's quite difficult to tell what colour is what.

True. The colour shades have ended up as the same for three choices. While we will try to fix this, you can get more information (currently) by hovering the mouse around the pie chart.

Just to say thank you to the author, I had fun with the left-over puzzles afterwards, they all seemed to have logical solutions. Well-chosen!

I hope you don't take the criticism here to heart too strongly. While I personally have a preference for hand-constructed puzzles that many here likely share, well-edited computer-generated puzzles certainly have their place. From my experience constructing Sudokus, I also suspect that quite a few established constructors use at least some computer help, particularly when it comes to getting classical Sudokus with non-elementary logic out, or when constructing variants with strong but intractable constraints (non-consecutive, etc.).

Personally I'd be happy to take part in a seond instance.
