A nice puzzle involving,as it did,lots of 1/2 combos.
Many thanks Mike.
Many regards
Gary

Thanks for a nice puzzle,Afmob.Took me 45-50 mins and I'ld rate it about 0.75.I think it's just the sort of level of difficulty that the forum needs now and then to bring in new people who may not be quite ready for the 1.25-1.5 mind-benders. with r5c5=4 r5c12={23} thus r2c46={79 or 89} and the inni...

I enjoyed 97 v1.5 too. As for v1 it was relatively straightforward to show that in N8 the numbers are; 275 938 146 After this it got tricky.Could place r1c1=3/4 and r1c9=2 In N2 1 is in the 12(3) cage ..nowhere else in c5 The 27(4) cage N12must contain a 9 so in N1 9 is at r2c23 Also in N1 1 is in r...

I'ld rate this as 1.25 at least..or maybe I'm out of practice!? The innies of n14-> r5c3=2/3,r6c23=1 2/3 so r7c2=4/5,hence r6c6=7/8.With r7c126=10 combo work in n7 places 4 in either r7c2 or r8c23.It is then fairly straightforward to eliminate 3 from r4c3 as this would place a 3 at both r4c4 and r4c...

Hi Andrew, It's not that I'm a particularly fast solver but that I don't normally keep a wt as I go along as this definitely slows me down.Of course it is then sometimes a problem when I wish to reconstruct my solution.Then again,you or Afmob or Mike will have written out more elegant wts than I cou...
