when can we hv our very own sudoku league?
Dear Groo,
We are pleased to inform you that we have this month uploaded our Sudoku software for online puzzle solving and we have a Leader Board where the best times recorded for Easy, Medium and Hard for each person are posted. Its creating some excitement and many are competing to climb up the Leader Board and to stay in the top 100.
This is somewhat like a league. Those on the Leader Board will soon have their own competitions and we may create some categories when the number of Puzzle Members increase.
However we have plans for a Nationwide competition after we finish the Smart Kids competition and the Inter Varsity/ College competition which have been planned already.
Hi
I hv tried the puzzles and hv viewed the times posted by various players and I find it hard to believe that ppl can solved it in less than 2mins having to type in the answers n moving it using a mouse.
Is there a method I am not aware of?
I know it can be done in less than 2mins by using pen and paper method but this? Hmmmmm…..
Why is there not a way for us to key in CLUES into boxes?
Thanks for this great site.
