A hard pattern indeed to generate puzzles. I only found 224 minimal puzzles with this pattern, I have not checked if the ones posted by you are in my collection.

Indeed difficult to generate puzzles with this pattern.

Interest to leave the first and to take the hardest quickly.

However I had 1133 minimal and nonisomorphous puzzles in my base

::: comment :::

I only save 1 puzzle per rating (hmm, could that be a flaw?) and had only 27

::: comment :::

I had 34 puzles with ED different. I missed ED=7.7/1.2/1.2

::: comment :::

personally I keep all the nonisomorphous puzzles not to remake several Sudokuexplainer times

I only save 1 puzzle per rating, and had only 27

I had 34 puzzles with ED different (I missed ED=7.7/1.2/1.2)

only 22 ratings were posted
so you have several more which were skipped

can't be posted as "more"
but would be welcome as a comment

::: comment :::
some posts were deleted to help the referee get back in sync
and the referee was fixed (hopefully for good) to not retain the resigned state from the previous game
it should be ok to resume
