Yep, I know what you guys are thinking...

"Good lord, another bending game to participate in! "

But yeah... these little things have been occupying my time for the past... month... and Ive gathered a fair amount(20+ and growing) of them to share with you guys... let me read you the official rules.

"Fill in the blank spaces in the grid so that every vertical column, every horizontal row and evert 3x3 box contains the numbers 1 through 9, without repeating any. There is really only one solution to each puzzle."

So, yeah. I give you numbers from the beginning, you fill in the rest, and get points...

Scoring goes as follows.

-There are three difficulty levels, Easy, Medium, and Hard.
-Easy will be worth 3, Medium; 6, and Hard; 9
-Every day that goes by that the puzzle is not solved, the point value drops by one.
-Hints will be given in the form of one number placed strategically in the puzzle to give you as minimal of a benefit as possible, but still makes it easier to solve the puzzle. Sorry to play it that way, but you need to solve these, not have me solve them again.
-Hints will deduct 1 point per hint
-When you have the correct answer, quote the table and fill in the blanks.
-You have one chance to get the puzzle right. No second guesses, period. These things should work themselves out.
-If you have the correct solution, you will get points.
-First to 100 points will win

Now, to make it fair, this will be updated three times a week, depending on how fast you solve these or not. I solve these daily, so there should be a steady supply coming this way (In case the game decides to go on)

Now... Here is the table template for my reference... (Easiest way for me to get the puzzles up)


Sudoku 0: Difficulty (Points)

PM me if you have questions.

And... here is Sudoku 1!


Sudoku 1: Easy(3)

-4--1-5--
--94--7-1
4--9----5
-23-7-91-
7----1--3
3-4--98--
--8-5--2-
------6-9


PS: I find these easier to solve on graph paper

Edit:
WARNING: MAY OCCUPY AN HOUR OF YOUR TIME

Just... something I decided to add... these do take a while.

Holy hell. I *love* Sudoku.

But... The 3x3 boxes need clearly-defined borders.

Good point

There may be a way to intricately add tables within tables to make the 3x3s stand out...

It's easy, Katw.

td bgcolor.

Also, I don't solve these fast enough to compete, but I can still work on them. Since Sudoku is awesome.

So, uhm, I made a table since I was bored and waiting for a new puzzle. Feel free to berate me about the messyness of my code, but it's a square of squares of squares with clearly defined borders, or at least that's what it looks like in lololol.

Quote this post to see how randomly complicated that is. There's no way it would be easy to put numbers in it. I may as well mention how annoying it is to have to avoid linebreaks because of the board coding. Whatever, I was just bored.

Koneko, putting the numbers into that square turns into the puzzle...

That really is a mess of code...

It wouldn't be nearly as messy if I bothered to make a stylesheet with the colors and settings in it, but I don't know how to link to one in the middle of a page. And I don't understand what you mean by "putting the numbers into that square turns into the puzzle".

But hey, it was an absolutely delicious application of cut and paste, nested tables, and Notepad's find/replace option.

You need to stop me from fooling around like this, I might hurt someone. Gimme another SuDoKu, keep me occupied for another twenty minutes that I won't not spend plotting murder.

And... Koneko has taken the first three points...

-----Sudoku Master's Board-----
3 Points - Koneko

Lets kick it up a notch then...

SuDoKu 2: Medium (6 Points)
-6---7---
4-2--59--
39-------
----6--37
--39-46--
15--8----
-------56
--41--8-9
---3---2-


Once I figure out a less messily coded... WORKING divided table setup, Ill begin using that...

Until then...

Spent an hour plus on this only to find out that either this has no solution, or I fucked it up.

Lovely.

Oh, no trouble at all bumping this. So long as you keep the puzzle going

Thats the good news.

The bad news is that you only get 1 point... since the value decreased every day

-----Sudoku Master's Board-----
12 Points - Kyouji the Stylish()
3 Points - Koneko
1 Point - Sketchie
--------------------------------------------

And... now Ive decided to do things a little differently.

Ill give you the puzzles like this


And all you have to do is give me the answer in any form you like
