Thread - Outside & Converse - 17th - 23rd May 2024 - Sudoku Mahabharat & ISC Qualifier 2024

I agree LK 6x6 was way harder than 9x9 (though having just watched Kishore solve a LK by RSP on their YouTube channel primed me for some of the intended sum logic for the 9x9.

I also just solved 9x9 skyscrapers after about 2 hours with the help of the f-puzzles solver to help me get the break-in.

chocchip37 Posts: 9 Country : Australia	chocchip37 posted @ 2024-05-20 8:09 PM Wow, what a hard round that was! Yet to solve the 9x9 XY Differences; of the rest, 9x9 skyscrapers was brutal and 6x6 LK was difficult. Amazing puzzles once again!
