GAS Sudoku Walkthrough - Chattai by Bill Murphy (2024-12-18)

Thanks to the recent CTC Caterpillar large puzzle, I knew about the "setting-largepuzzle=1" URL parameter, and adding that was helpful in being able to zoom into the puzzle and scroll around. The tiny grid otherwise was hard to navigate and see. I quite enjoyed the puzzle, especially the way the corner puzzles resisted solving until the middle puzzle unlocked all the answers. My time today was 6:38, solver number 1063.

Finished in 8:09 (two hats, dinosaur). Great puzzle!

Just made it under wire for 2 hats with a time of 9:23.

oh god this one is so easy to get 'lost in the sauce' in, especially without the conflict checker working right. I got like 90% done at 25:20 and then ran into a contradiction. Guess I'll restart and plug away at it some more.

Okay, second try and I got it in 15:15 from scratch. Whew.

[@Thrym865]

19:40. It's really hard for me to see the small centre notes.

[@michaelferrins]

I was slow, but then I always am, and I resolved the red grid first, using the given overlapping digits as a start

one hat (on the third try) - very enjoyable.

[@mjkluck]

Nice one.

42.23 and that was with a cheat after investing 40 minutes, so not very proud of myself. And not helped by playing on a tablet; can't imagine what it was like on a phone. I probably need an eye check.

I did it on a phone. Smaller thumbs and a magnifying glass would have been handy.
