Posts: 315 ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : The Netherlands | Para posted @ 2012-04-14 3:02 AM flk - 2012-04-13 10:35 PM Hey guys I've seen the 0-8 sudoku before but haven't understood the variation - is the purpose simply to throw people off their usual killer sudoku rhythm? Can't you just add one digit per cell to each cage and treat it as a normal killer? Looking forward to the test If you do that remember to subtract 1 from every digit for the answer key. The Killer from the spring sudoku test and the one I made were both zero killers (unclued areas) and had clear cage sum themes. So maybe it's another similar gimmick. I at first was thinking the greater than killer would have the symbols be between cages (like on killersudokuonline.com) and not between cells. |

Posts: 315 ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : The Netherlands | Para posted @ 2012-04-15 4:10 AM Phew, just managed to submit my answers in time. It was a little bit confusing that the Surprise Killer wasn't named that in the booklet but is named that on the answer key page. It took me a little while to realise the name didn't match the name on the answer key page. But I had actually switched answer pages a few times looking for the right place to put in the answer key. SKnight - 2012-04-14 8:00 PM Hmm... results page isn't showing that anybody has submitted anything, even though people have finished the test, and have actually submitted answers. It's to increase tension. I think it has some old script remembered as it also already shows ratings before I entered them. Edited by Para 2012-04-15 4:19 AM |
