Country : United States | (I10) Sum of Them seemed exceptionally tricky. In four careful attempts I always reached a contradiction. Attempt 5 finally solved it.
Many great puzzles. The Innovations are delightful -- I especially liked Coordinates. Inequality seems quite hard (still working on it).

Country : India | The INNOVATIVE's were just superb i loved it. I found Classic Inequality tough as i am not getting start. Also i was able to solve 50 % of total sudokus i hope i start increasing that percentage from next test.
To respected author, one fact i would like to share i found it while solving the c4 classic sudoku i got my A,B,C,D with almost 12 cells still left to be filled. So just have look at it if it helps for the next time to choose better answer keys :) |

That happens to me on one or two puzzles in every test. Its very difficult to determine keys, there's bound to be a few that go here and there for a few individuals. |

Hmm that is possible. as any sudoku can be solved in multiple ways. may be one of the way is such that clues (answer keys ) are obtained faster. :p |

Country : United States | Are there other samples of these Innovatives available anywhere? (besides the Even Sandwich on p.1 of this thread). Hungry for more! :)

Country : India | The Solution booklet also has a puzzle history (where the puzzle appeared first time) - but there are no links. |

Well, it's only one puzzle, but today's 'friday-noon-puzzle' is an Even Sandwich Sudoku. You can find it here.
Enjoy!
I liked most of the innovatives in this test, and it's very likely that I will make some of the other variants in the future as well. I will keep you all informed about it. |

As promised earlier, I have made a few puzzles that were inspired by this nice sudoku test. Two of my favorite puzzles (Search nine sudoku and Rank sudoku ) are already included in the sudoku-advent-calender at Logic Masters Germany, two others (Clones and Between ) will appear soon.
You can read more about the advent calender and links to the puzzles in another thread in this forum.
