Location: Romania | I have a question: in 234 Outside also the 6x6 is following this rule? Or in case of 6x6 the numbers outside are in 2nd or 3rd position? |

Whatever is given in instructions is correct...6x6 follows 234 rule. So it can come in 2nd or 3rd or 4th position. |

Wonderful set of puzzles, thoroughly enjoyed solving this round!
A well-balanced round, and each puzzle in my opinion was set at the right amount of marks for difficulty.
My favourite was the unordered distances sudoku 9x9, and I also loved the 234 outside sudoku, a variant I have tried for the first time!
Thanks, Gaurav!

Too hard for the LMI community to solve this SM round without shedding a tear.
It was very nice of Gaurav and the organizers to prepare the sudokus themed on Shaheer.
Favourites: 9x9 Toroidal, 9x9 Irregular, 6x6 Toroidal
Enjoyable and a neat set of sudokus. Thanks Gaurav! |

I started with the 9x9 unordered distances and spent ~20 mins on it but couldn't solve it. So, I moved to other sudokus. It was a great set. Though I couldn't solve the unoredered distances, I really enjoyed the set. Would try the unordered distances afterwards.
It was a great initiative to dedicate the round to Shaheer. Thank you Gaurav for the great set of sudokus! |
