Who Sudokus?
« on: December 28, 2005, 11:10:01 AM »
I am sure that many people have found the Sudoku recently, the Japanese Logic number puzzle. But I was just curious how many people actually do these and how good you are at them.

I was in Barnes and Noble yesterday and I picked up the Mensa Sudoku book and let me tell you it is extremely challenging, but so far I have done well in completing the puzzles without cheating or guessing and getting none incorrect. So who else thinks they would be able to Mensa Sudoku or how many just started this new trend.

Sudoku can kiss my white butt!

Actually everyday at work we have a competition to see who can do the USA Today Sudoku the fastest. (You can enable a timer in the options) I am OK at it, but my one buddy can rock them like there's no tomorrow!

USA Today Daily Sudoku

Oh and btw - There is NO guessing in Sudoku. It is all logic. There is always a move that can be made without guessing. (That's why I do them in pen when i do them on paper) I just wish I could get better at figuring out which number is missing when I have 8 already found. I hate having to count through them all!

Another good site: Sudoku Fun. (I like USA Today's interface better)

My brother got one of thesebooks for Christmas. He's been doing them a lot, so I guess they are addictive. I haven't tried them yet, but probably will in the future....

They really are addictive and once you start doing you it puts you in a trance like you don't want to be interrupted. It's all about having logic and you should try them. They are really fun and addicting :)

My trig teacher gives them to us for extra credit.  I cant stand them.  The last one i just threw away before i looked at it.  Numbers and math arent my thing.
