Carola from Washington State

Carola, the best person to explain the Kraken cell is Steve from Ohio. There was a good explanation in the "Sudoku Tips" section of this site that Steve has authored but I can't immediately find it. You could post a message on his page (Steve from Ohio) or you could contact via email at solidsudoku@yahoo.com (I'll post this message on your page as well.) Cheers!

And welcome to the site and to your own page! Cheers!

rainy day here near Chicago and we are gearing up for the BlackHawk game tomorrow - enjoy your time on the site, Mary

Welcome to "Sudokuland", Carola. Good to see you posting! Always room for another Washington contingent participant. I brought some flowers, just because...

Welcome Carola! I hope you enjoy your page and your time here on the site. Cheers!

Hi Carola. Referring to yesterday's Tough (6-3-11): After locked 6s at gh1, this still seems to allow d3=6 (as well as d8=6)?
I am not so hot on the Eureka notation, but I can usually follow someone else's, by noting:
"=" means enables(although the first use of "=" means "or".
"-" means forbids.
For a more detailed explanation, go to Dave from Minnesotta's page, where there is a reference to the archives where he explains one of his proofs.

Regards, Alfred.

Hello Carola & welcome to sudoku & jigsaws!!!!
At the top of the sudoku square are 6 ''button'' 3 on the left & 3 on the right. The middle one on the left will give you the jigsaw when you click on it!
It isn't so obvious when you're new to the place, I remember trying to find out how to get to the jigsaws when I first tried doing them!!
Have fun!

Hi Carola. I have also sent an email to Garth, but have had no reply. As someone else has suggested, he may be away on holidays.
Best Regards, Alfred.
