    I'll have a look at it, either excel or pdf is fine. Why not just add both to your post as attachments and let people decide themselves?

    Need some more numbers to help? I don't want to cause a headache.HEHEHE Cheers Oliver

    Did you just throw in random numbers, or did you consider there placement,

    because at first look, it appears to be unsolvable.
    Most sudoko puzzles are solvable by two routes, one is the repeatition of a starter number, such as 4 or 5 of the same number to complete one set, the other route id elimination of options, numbers concentrated in certain areas to leave few options,

    yours has neither, the centre boxes on the lower face each have 4 or 5 possible options, and these are the closest to be being solved

    I'm confused, I thought Sudoku numbers only went from 1-9?

    Generally they do, but you can use any amount of numbers as long as each square has the same amount of boxes (If that makes sense).

    Going to try and give this one a go, cheers YellowSheep

    Nevermind, this is unsolveable.

    I think we must be missing something. Any chance of some clarification YellowSheep?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 384 ✭✭YellowSheep


    Hi Guys. Sorry to cause you a headache. But believe me its solvable and I have another couple of solutions. I even have one with numbers and letters. Anyway...The idea is that you have to think in 3d as well. You need to get the numbers 1 to 16 on each cube face, but you need to ensure that each row vertically and horizontally will contain the numbers 1 to 16 as well. Thats why I called it Sudoku's Revenge.
    PM me if you want some more numbers. Cheers Oliver

    I'd say stick up some more numbers directly into this thread. You could use spoiler tags to keep people from seeing more than they might want to.

    Whats that? Cheers Oliver

    This is a spoiler tag -

    Use the spoiler.gif button on the reply page and put what you want to hide between the two brackets.

    GhostInTheRuins already explained it very well! I would also add that you can add spoilers manually by typing "[ spoiler]Your text[ /spoiler]". Remove the space after the '[' character in each of tags. I added them in so that the text wouldn't get converted to an actual spoiler :).

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,065 ✭✭✭✭Malice


    So... any chance of actually getting some hints then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 384 ✭✭YellowSheep


    Hi Malice, Hi Guys

    Please find a new sheet with more numbers. I tried the spoiler thing but it would just confuse everybody.

    Enjoy Oliver
