The New Sudoku Players' Forum

[Animator]

You should only post your questions/problems in this section of the forum if you
have a problem with a plain SuDoku puzzle.

whereas if it is a SuDoku variant (Samurai, Killer, ...)
please post in that section (Sudoku variants)


Other important advice:
• Paste the grid so that it is easy to look at. An example can be found at the end.
  If you prepare the grid in an editor (such as Microsoft Word) then you need to set the font to Courier New (or another fixed font)
  
  
  Place the grid between [code] and [/code] tags
  You can use them by following this 'procedure':
  • Before you start your grid you type: [code] (or press the 'Code'-button above the message-field).
  • After the last line of your grid you type: [/code] (or press the 'Code*'-button).
  • Alternative: select the grid and press the 'Code'-button
• Include the source and difficulty level in the title. Example: Stuck on Hard Puzzle from Greenwich Gazette 16 January 2006.
• Use the Preview button to check the layout.
• Double check your grid.
• Post your pencilmarks.
• Post the starting grid.
• Use the standard terminology.
• Ask your question once and only once. (Do not cross-post.)

Example of an easy-to-read puzzle:

• Without pencilmarks:

  Code: Select all

  
. 7 . | . 5 4 | 8 . .
. 4 . | 7 . . | 3 6 .
. . 8 | . . . | . . 4
------+-------+------
7 . 4 | . . 1 | . . 6
9 . 2 | . . . | . . 8

. . . | . . . | 1 . .
