Posts: 460 Country : India | purifire posted @ 2011-05-26 4:04 PM Hi Gotroch, I had a few Questions... Torroidal Do the shapes have to be rectangular boxes or they can also be jigsaw shaped?? Draw a Jigsaw. When we draw the shapes is it a must that an incomplete line has to be only an extension of the given part or we can start drawing a shape from any point even from the middle of a given segment?? Which digit is missing? In this puzzle I see a T-shaped green line, is that supposed to be treated as one single green line where the sum of all digits is the common sum, or do we treat them as 2 different lines with one digit common? Rishi |

All shapes have to be 3x3 rectangular boxes. But as it is toroidal puzzle, these 3x3 boxes can wrap around edges. As I wrote before you have only 9 possible ways how to arrange straight lines. (Theoretically you can arrange them in such way, that you create classic sudoku) purifire - 2011-05-26 4:04 PM Draw a Jigsaw. When we draw the shapes is it a must that an incomplete line has to be only an extension of the given part or we can start drawing a shape from any point even from the middle of a given segment?? You can draw bold lines anywhere you want, but you have to satisfy the rule that if you have two neighbouring cells, divided by bold line ---> these two cells have to be in two different regions. purifire - 2011-05-26 4:04 PM Which digit is missing? In this puzzle I see a T-shaped green line, is that supposed to be treated as one single green line where the sum of all digits is the common sum, or do we treat them as 2 different lines with one digit common? For that T-shaped green line: Four cells are connected together - so common sum (X) will be the sum of these 4 digits (1+6+3+0=10) |

Posts: 315 Country : The Netherlands | Para posted @ 2011-05-28 11:33 PM Hi I have a question before I start. Not sure if it can be answered but it will help me. I don't have access to a working printer this weekend, so will have to copy down the puzzles to paper. I just wanted to know if all grids besides the jigsaws will be in a standard 3x3 grid. Especially wondering for the instructionless, if this is something that you could give away. Will help me get my grids ready for when I start copying. hoping I don't copy a number wrong.. Sounds like an interesting set, so would still like to try. Think i'll have to skip the killer, not very practical. |

If you are able to see the login box, that means you don't need any additional software on your machine. Can I suggest to refresh your page and try again? As per our database, you haven't started the test yet. So you can try to start again. |
