ill say

almost no 3s to speak of...

nornna

stereopathetic

has anyone gotten stuck yet? cuz i want to know if i am mistaken in thinking that this is much easier than the usual 'hard'

nah, not too bad yet

i'm closing in on the last half

yeah this is too easy

I have nipples

im not quite stuck im just out of obvious stuff and moving in the 'well this cant go here but can go here etc' part

me too. they are hard cause I just finished

all done!

Done!

Pretty good one, I thought...

I'm done too...

tosh

nornna

crap...i think i messed up somewhere

oops

drunken

sudoku

Have fun everyone... take care...cya tomorrow

Finally... Done

More than halfway and so far it was straightforward enough. Not really hard, is it?

I win

I have hard nipples now too

Done

hmm. that was easy

hard hard? or ok hard?

Easy hard.

woohoo!

What make a sudoku hard?

Boil it?

lol

Done :)

yay! about half-way :)

uh oh cat wants to play now as well. she keeps batting at the keyboard

morning everyone.... is it a hard hard

?

apparently not, Ginger :)

8's plug in easily anyway!

yes, its officially easy-hard :)

mornin' all

that seemed easier than yesterday

good morning

I think I should throw the towel in now... my just 8 year old daughter who is an Aspie just told me where to put a number... and not an obvious one!!!

what's an "aspie"?

she has Asperger's syndrome... high functioning Autism!

she is supposed to have learning difficulties... hmmmmm

is she one (oh i got problems in explaining it in english) of those who are gifted in a single area?

i found s.th. on wikepedia called "geek syndrome"...

she is very visual morgan... doesn't do words but can visualise things... so this would be good for her.

done

DONE!!!

ok. so it must be hard for you being struck by your 8-year-old child ;-)

congratulations ginger

Done too...

it really is hard today

ok, let's have a look at this

it's a mess. thank god, that i've to install several microsoft products - that gives me enough time ;-)

I've got quite a few filled in, but I'm a bit stuck now

trying to work out what the next step is that I'm missing

aha, got it

DAMMIT!

oh d ear

today's "hard" puzzle was much easier than yesterday's "easy"

so not true

yesterday's took me all of 8 minutes

hmm it took me forever yesterday, this one took about 15 mins all together

hehe though i wasn't really awake yesterday

WOO!

hm, i'm stuck now

oh, doh

woo!

easy ;-)

Doink. Done. ~35 mins...

I hope this is as easy as you are all making it sound

bizzarely easy compared to yesterday

You're all right ... this was an easy one

16 minutes, that is a minute quicker than yeasterday

Yay, just solved my first suduku.

congrats

i didn't finish the last two - think i might get this one

i'm terribly bad at them

thanks, dont worry you will get this one :)

Nooo

Conflict!

hmm, not really difficult at all... at most you had to use box line reduction

agree Dave~

not hard? good to hear

I'm not stuck, but it's going slowly

I hate to ask what box line reduction is, I guess I should go look it up (I never know the names of techniques)

peternt - possibly easier than yesterdays easy

yesterdays was pretty easy

haxored!

Rachel!

I beat it! +3 points for me!

I'm in class

Ooo, sneaky

the prof is giving a demo on how to use a scanner and power point *snooze*

throw a paper airplane

:)

thats what we used comp sci classes for

I remember powerpoint. That thing was HARD ;)

and the funny thing is he got stuck, so like 6 of us were showing HIM what to do

Don't even get me started on scanning. I nearly lost it the last time I tried to scan something

I know! Putting s omething down and pressing a button is SO hard

no wonder colleges dedicate a whole two hour class to the process

Tell me about it

had to start over more than three times and at the end it was so easy. (where on earth was my brain all day long?)

but anyway, good morning :)

Good morning

I filed homestead this morning

what does that mean?

It means the county knows who's actually living at the house, so they can tax them accordingly

ok

okay, time to go home!

did you move haxored?

w00t

done

at least since it was hard my ranking will go up for a change ;-)

First time on...here goes.

oops

haha its not cheating if everyones doing it

i didnt know that the definition of cheating was subjective to numbers involved

no offense star, but dont you have recess to get to?

3points woo

hello

hey, i did it ! for some reason i had more trouble with yesterday's easy than i did with this one. I must have just had a bad sudoku day.

starting now :)

Well I got the 8s right away

finito

not too bad for a "Hard"

this one was easy!

alright, here i go ...

macuser, i like your kitty. is it yours? (i have a russian blue mix too)

lol i have a friend with a russian blue kitty and he swears the cat looks blue, and i swear it looks gray

everytime i see him he says, 'have you seen my blue kitty?' and i say, 'i've seen your GRAY cat'

mine looks gray to me! her name is joy-joy, and she is a doll. she is also polydactl so she has an extra toe on each paw

wow! that's crazy - about the extra toe :)

her front paws look like catcher's mitts.

lol it would remind me of the six fingered man from princess bride

i have to keep those two thumb toes trimmed, otherwise she gets herself caught on things (blankets, carpet, futon cover...)

how unusual is it, a polydact cat?

joy-joy is less evil than the 6-fingered man ;-)

hence the name :)

not too unusual. hemingway had a ton, and if you go to his house on key west (which is overrun w/ cats), about half of them are polydactl.

by the way, you may have all heard this via email forwards, but today at 2 minutes and three seconds past 1, it will be 01:02:03 04-05-06. Pretty cool, eh?

oh i hadn't heard that :) that IS cool

hmm i've never been to key west, i didn't realize that's where his house was.

one of his many houses

it was cool, we went last march as part of a cruise. then a fwe months later we were watching one of the many bond runs on spike or amc or whatever channel and realized that they filmed part of "license to kill" at the hemingway house and on key west. it was cool to see it!

oh that's awesome :) i am going to st. petersburg and orlando this weekend, but i will still be far from the keys

enjoy florida! hitting disney?

just finished the puzzle--i agree that it didn't seem that hard. at least not as hard as some of the earlier "hard" ones were

yeah, i've been slacking but it doesn't seem that bad ... i actually live in florida, but up in the pahandle area so its still a 6 hour drive or so to orlando. and it's great because florida residents get discounts ;)

kewl! i am originally from southern cal, so i remember enjoying the disneyland discounts. i can remember going to disneyland for $20 once (!)

wow, that's pretty cheap ... i'm actually not going to disney, but to seaworld

sound lke fun! i lk the rollercoaster, i forget what it's caled (sorry re: typos, sticky keyboard)

i didn't even notice typos, lol. i have wanted to go to seaworld for some time - my husband and i are taking my 18 month old, so i don't know if he'll be old enough to enjoy it, but i'm sure i will

well, back to work. enjoy the time in orlando! you guys can swap the baby back and forth on the rides--you get in line together, then one of you rides and then you swap the baby and the other one rides. they'll let you do that. have fun! :)

as a florida resident actually you pay the same, but instead of a day pass we get a year pass

thx :) c-ya

bye!

i haven't been to sea world or universal yet and i've lived here for a year and a half now!

close to orlando?

tampa

ahh ok :)

i have premium annual passes to disney though :)

i remember going to disney when i was little and the only thing i remember is being upset that we couldn't go up into cinderella's castle

heh

done! :) that wasn't bad at all ...

hey all

finished...yeah!!

hello!

how's it goin?

are you serious?

no one can answer that?

too busy tearing hair out

uh oh

that's not good bekee

it'll grow back :)

oh good!

wow, i've filled in only 6

i've twice that, but it wasn't easy

oh joy

I've filled in 22, but now I'm stuck

make that 24

im at 22 in only 10 mins

I finished it yesterday!

in 3 seconds!

with my eyes closed!

:P LOL

i wasnt trying to be a showoff

done.

yay i finished

OK Now ....

This is tough...

done - only 1 guess - hurrah

yay done

Greetz!

darn, they always make the first couple really easy just to bait you in so you do the puzzle :P

clever comput4rz

sometimes i wonder why i torture myself on the "hard" days.

completely stuck at 10...

Clear your mind of all things... focus on the Micro
- The Masterer (Pure Pwnage)

;)

hahaha

haha..gah

made it to 20, givng up. Time to go home

bollocks

pwned

later

are you guys finding this one easier than yesterday's? what a relief.

done, whew.

Had lots of trouble with the 6's the first go at it.

Hooray!

well i'm done yall have fun now yahere!!!!!

today : hard = easy
yesterday : easy = hard
???

the 6s are unsolvable.

ive had to start over three or so different times just because of the 6s

i've been working on this off and on since it was posted, i've started over at least four times. i should probably quit now.

never give up never surrender!

lol galaxy quest !

funny movie

i thought it was fitting

ab-sooo-lutely !

i thought hitchhikers guide was pretty funny too, but i dont know hardly anyone that thought the same

i didn't appreciate hhg when it first came out either, but now i love all those books - and esp. the way they're written

i havent read them yet but ive been awfully tempted to

he has a rather odd style of writing & was a very quick wit - lots of obscure references

i guess ill have to go ahead and check em out then

wish you a great read!

thanks

got it

ugh...this thing started out so easy

you can do it santa!

well i seemed to have gotten over the road block...almost finished but im just waiting for double #s

ha....finally

thanks wac

hey no problem

wahoo, 3 points for me!

wd wac!

thankyou thankyou

and i'm off. . have a good night all

night

Grrr, forgot about it, not going to finish it now

s'funny: everyone logged on who has an icon is honoring their cats!

wow, just barely finished

our own theme of the day :)

they are the greatest after all

There must be some relationship between love of cats and love of sudoku

i wonder... or puzzlers in general?

Naaah, I'm a dog person! :-)

people who are more likely to curl up with a good book than grab the dog and go for a hike...

an intellectual one of course

except israel :)

my cat prefers Babble, anyway

meow.

Anyone have a problem with the AJAX on this site where the board flashes with the chatter?

are you running firefox? trying upgrading to 1.5... or so I've heard

Aaaah, thought I was running 1.5 here. I'm running it elsewhere, but 1.0.7 here
