Posts: 9 Location: United Kingdom | Yes - I've got it now! Thanks for taking the time to reply - I've never come across this sudoku variant before. It's always great to come across a new puzzle type so I will go and try out the 9 x 9 now! Regards. Christine | ||

Location: Germany | Renban is a puzzle type invented (so far as I know) by Inaba Naoki. You can find his examples at http://inabapuzzle.com/honkaku/renban.html . (All digits occur in each row and column, all cages are renban groups.) The oldest sudoku variant with renban groups is Hanidoku ( http://www.hanidoku.com/ ). Other renban at http://www.sachsentext.de/en/node/1156 and other hanidoku at http://www.sachsentext.de/en/taxonomy/term/162 . Pyrrhon | ||

I also want to thank Uwe (aka Pyrrhon) for sharing information about Renban. Some puzzlers may not be familiar with this subject. I also follow his great site http://www.sachsentext.de and learn about different variants Uwe deals not only with sudokus and the site has a lot of different puzzle types also. But I know that solving Uwe's designs is always enjoyable. He shared some of them in LM German puzzle portal also. Maybe Uwe will manage to conduct another monthly sudoku contest for LMI in the forthcoming months. I think it will be a great. Regards, Zafer Edited by zhergan 2010-11-10 2:04 PM | ||

Posts: 44 Location: United States | Munira (and everyone else with small screens): I think I've found a fix and have tested it out on my local copy of the authors page. Deb will be adding the fix to the test pages sometime soon, which should work for almost everyone. Sorry about the inconvenience! | ||

Posts: 23 Location: United States | 1. I naively thought from the Results tab that all the good sudoku players had been kidnapped and tied up in a closet somewhere as no one had passed my middling score. 2. Now I understand why I am the leader only in my own mind. 3. Was this explained somewhere ahead of time? I must have missed it. 4. Why is this the case and why dont you want us to see the others? Thanks. The Subro | ||
