Posts: 2 Country : Germany | Karlson posted @ 2010-07-06 11:30 PM @all Thank you very much for the Illustration and help. The language (my translation) was the problem in "Anti Knight Sudoku". In german the figur called "Pferd" (translation in english = horse). Symmetric unequal sudoku is now no problem also too. I´am looking forward for the weekend. Many greetings Karlson Edited by Karlson 2010-07-06 11:36 PM |

Posts: 172 Country : ITALY | forcolin posted @ 2010-07-12 4:00 AM Sorry if I go back to the Between Sudoku (or Sandwich sudoku..) the instructions say that "if there is MORE THAN ONE CELL between two given digits.... only digits inbetween the given can be used. But in the example (and in Jan's explanation a few posts ago) the same applies also when there is EXACTLY ONE CELL between two given digits. for example, between 7 and 9 in row 9 the is EXACTLY ONE CELL (and not MORE THAN ONE CELL), and the digit 8 is placed. Is this just a coincidence? Could another digit (for example 3) be used? Or the instructions are misleading? In the diagram, MORE THAN ONE CELL BETWEEN TWO GIVEN DIGITS occur only in row 5 and in column 5, while there are many more examples of EXACTLY ONE CELL BETWEEN GIVEN DIGITS. Should the instructions say "if there is AT LEAST ONE CELL BETWEN TWO GIVEN DIGITS IN THE SAME ROW OR COLUMN????) Please clarify. Stefano |

Posts: 349 Country : India | amitsowani posted @ 2010-07-19 1:54 AM Great set of puzzles. Most of the variants had the variant rule applied in multiple ways. My speed did not allow me to even have a look at the classics :( But overall loved the test :) |

Country : India | debmohanty posted @ 2010-07-19 6:08 AM Looks like everyone liked the Sudokus by janoslaw. The timing of the the test (2 hours) seemed just perfect, with exactly one player completing the test. Overall a successful Monthly Test for LMI, with so many players turning up for Sudokus. Thank you so much janoslaw. |

Posts: 337 Country : Switzerland | Fred76 posted @ 2010-07-19 3:20 PM Wonderful test ! It was also my best result in an online tournament. I liked every grid, they were very well constructed, thanks to Jan for this wonderful work ! The 9*9 grid "No 3 odd/even in line Sudoku" was difficult and very beautiful to solve. It took me long time to solve, but it is the grid that my direct competitors did not solve, that made the difference for the 2nd place, as the first place was to hard to reach against Thomas, who did a great performance ! Thanks to LMI for these very well organized tests ! Fred |
