Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions

No I play too, but I don't tend to post my scores. Do you have the same issues, Alatar? Do you have tips for managing the challenge of different English word spellings?

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions

Sudoku difficulties are based on how much info is available. An easy Sudoku puzzle should be solvable using the basic comprehension of the rules. The difficult levels force you to look three or four moves deep. Like, if this is a 3, then that would have to be a 4, and that would have to be a 7 so......

Its getting rave reviews Jude. You might get more engagement in the Videogame thread though
