Shoot. :(

Oh, that was a great line with which to start the puzzle day.

ha

hmm...not a whole lot of obvious ones that i can tell

I placed my first few in the bottom right

me too

I was able to fill the eighth row immediately. Not sure how I'm going to approach the rest of it..

Eh, I want to see how fast I can mark it all.

I'm trying to avoid using green numbers on easy ones

new training regime

i mean regimen

sounds good

Hmm, that's good practice..

easier than push-ups :)

Morning all :)

hi sprite!

lol much

morning

Push-ups would probably be better, for me, at least.

What is hard about push up bras?

boy, what they call easy here I consider moderate. But I'm done.

i think i prefer push-ups to push-up bras.. and I *hate* push-ups!

lol

nice one israel. i'm going to stop chatting and see if i can make some head-way on this

Lol, I agree.

I prefer the "absence" of push-up bras, myself :-)

So do I, any time. Probably leftovers from the spanish inquisition.

Hello all

something occured to me...

You know, I never expected the spanish inquisition

:)

maybe just maaaaybe....

we're addicted.

Motive... no! Impossible. I could quit any given day. Eh....

No, I make sure I play 2-3 games a day, every day for the last many months, and I'm not addicted!

naw, in order to be addicted we'd have to be here giving up other pleasures, despite negative consequences, etc..

haha and we don't do that... right?

0:-)

giving up sleep doesn't count

*wink*

Heh.

Speaking of other pleasures; it's after 1am here, so it's time for bed.

Ignoring kids to solve a sudoku, does that count? Noooooo.

i'm in Israel's timezone! w00t

Just teach your kids to play. I've played a bit with my 6yr old.

mine? Or the country's?

yours

i'm in NY

Yeah, I have done that too and they love it. But I love to play without them some of the time ;)

.. .you?

why the question mark?

where are you

Washington DC

w0rd

where are you?

i'm in NY

(Rochester)

aaaah, that was my next question

we have a call center in rochester...talk to people from there all the time

shweet :)

And I used to have a roommate from Rochester.

lol...funny story...somebody at work got in trouble for being off the phone and doing 'a crossword puzzle with numbers'

cold as h3ll, but the ppl are nice

haha nice

i was doing a sudoku at the time and asked 'what, like this?'

i got a dirty look lol

Lol!

haha nice

done

Hmm... I really should finish writing this bot, but I'm kinda addicted to the sudoku :(

we're more fun than robots

Some of us could be bots.

lo

you never know...

l

w00t

sudoku-playing bots?

not very productive, but quite fun

*oops :// syntax error *

roflbot

hmm, augurus: the strong and silent type

Step 1. Create Sudoku-playing bots.
Step 2. ???
Step 3. Profit!

yeah, until they take over the world!

haha step 3 is always profit!

i dig

somebodys always willing to buy something

Yeah, the problem is always step 2 :)

And the bots can take over the world, but NOT my sudoku!

/agree

When I do finally finish my bot, you guys should check out my site :D

Deal!

sweet :D! thx

I'm making a lyric wiki so that ppl don't have to put up with those lame ads on all of the lyrics-sites.

I wrote a bot that got me 218,000 songs, but I have to write one to slap those songs into the wiki now

But I'm playing sudoku at the moment instead ;)

ive always hated that

totally awesome motive

It's an easy one... so stop chatting, finish the sudoku and get to work, lol. ;)

I remember lyrics.ch

thanx! :)

done

WTG finishers!

yay done! would still love it if Dr._God added some kind of announcement when people finished. It's nice to get fireworks :)

haha that would be cool

g'night everyone

I agree :)

nite!

night

congrats

Night Krys :) *hug*

going to check out babble before I turn in... just in case it's a good one

*hugs* back

done

good job :)

wasnt too bad...my mind got stuck at one part...and it was an obvious one too

lol

thanks

off to watch some farscape...good luck and hasta luego

thx... later

yays... done :)

back to the b0t

Good luck with it and gj. :)

thanx... nite all! :D

Okay, I agree, it WAS an easy one. Done :) Bye, till tomorrow.

nornna

that was either pretty easy, or I'm getting better at this...probably a little of both. Nite all...

Greetings fellow Sudoku champions =)

Well yesterday was my first day and it was a hard one, so this should be a nice change...

Good luck, MaW........I just started a few days ahead of you. It gets easier☀

Are you using the shift key to make the little green numbers?

Sweet dreams and good weather to y'all

Yes I'm making extensive use of the shift key

good morning

Lots of Easy's lately...

Ah - I didn't know you could do the shift stuff... that makes it much nicer...

Woo, done

Try Alt too

done

me too..

Hey peeps! Nice easy one again, I see..

finished in 12 minutes - which is good for me! for some reason as soon as i get a hard one i just can't do them!

Yayay! Done.

13 minutes. Lol.

hurrah!

that was nice and easy :)

mm. easy. shiny

hi all

Good morning & good luck all.

hi im saz

good luck firefox

thanx

yw

how do u bcome friend

dunno, I am new here

so am i

any oldies here?

if you mean "my friends" at the top, you have to be a paying member.
if you mean "friends of sudoku" at the bottom, you have to have a site that mentions or links to this site, and you can email Dr God, and he will add a link to your site.

thanx

Thanks Evandine. I didn't know there was a paying version. I'll have to check it out.

yeah, if you go "pro" (as its called) its a one-time fee.
you get access to the "whos online" and "my friends" tabs, and you also get to choose your tiles -- you could play with letters or pictures instead of numbers...

LETTERS! I have all I can handle with numbers...

it is easy with letters

I am more a numbers person

so dods dat men u lik maths

well, it's harder to misspell with numbers...

besides, I am a musician, we count in numbers most of the time

i am a musician 2

cool. play? sing? compose?

hmm, done, but of course it drags my rating down again ;-)

play + sing

how does it drag ratings down?

im a wannabe musician...heh...took a few lessons on a few instruments, but no natural talent.
a shower- and car-only singer...

but i am a dance teacher, so i DO have some sort of innate musical ability!

neat. I am a composer/singer and the mother of a songwriter/singer & awesome guitarist.

I am a saxophonist... and tinker on guitar

no singing for me though. :)

I played baritone in HS & recorders and krumhorns in college

it'd be interesting to see how many people who enjoy number/logic puzzles are also musical...

Hey guys, you're talking about my fav subject...I see there's a few musicians here :D

I play violin, viola & sing...

and vice-versa Dave

indeed

I play piano and clarinet and I sing

still want to learn to play piano...*sigh*

the only problem with Su Doku is that I need to know numbers beyond 4...

that's my next target too

hehe

Wow Eastern, great!

I know how to play piano, but my hands won't cooperate

altho...I should confess, I haven't actually 'played' my violin in awhile...

i tried violin, thinking it'd be as easy as guitar was to pick up, and I was dead wrong... haven't picked it up in awhile

I think that's one that's hard to self-learn

I took the string "methods" class in college, but the violin now sits abandoned in my music room

I took lessons for years...the 'Suzuki' method...

Oh, violin is hard! I am a pianist and singer

you learned on a motercycle? ;-)

my parents swore they'd be happy if they never heard variations on Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star again!!

hehe

yes- I was a violin performer in the circus!! LOL!! 8 )

so how many clown fit in a violin?

3

lol

band - I do envy people who can play piano!!

ditto

I saw Billy Joel in concert 2 weeks ago...man, he can play!!

It's not so hard to play piano when you've been doing it for 2/3rhs of your life...and study in fulltime at uni lol

ooh! Billy Joel!!! you lucky thing!

I took 1 intro to music theory class in college & had to 'play'...the professor was a brilliant pianist & I felt like such a clod compared to her... : )

WTG band. I took lessons for 3 yrs, and did class piano. I passed with a B, but had to play everything VERY slowly. It's a left-right challenged kind of thing.

so does that mean you guys have been to band camp?

nah, too old for band camp, though my son went.

I have been to many band camps... :)

I was thinking of the American Pie movie...

yeah, it was more pain than fun

Sounds like Dave was doing something wrong...

oops, sorry Anne... now I have proved I am too old...

I tried the violin in 5th grade - gave it up. Too squeaky

I'm addicted to Sudoku games anyway

I'm getting that way too

i must be missing something, this is taking longer than yesterdays

hi

Umm...could it be the chatting?

hehe... i can multitask :)

I am a bad influence

any one else here at work?

shhhh...... yep

shh indeed

you know, I didn't get to go on a band camp...Orchestral, choral and solo piano yes, looking into chamber music camps...but do band camp. And I even play the flute. *sigh*

boring day today? boss is away?

i always play in the mornings... :)

There weren't band camps when I was in hifh school. And I wasn't in band in college, just collegium, and all the choral gigs I could get.

it helps me wake up in the am

I play whilst I wait for the medication to kick in... and the caffeine...

Gets the neurons moving around in my brain matter

yay done

done!

okay... time to get to work. It's been fun, happy music!

Bye UD...

(( EB !! )) hiya!

lemme just add you as a friend....

hiya Babs!!

I added you earlier... : )

you alright? : )

yup (still have this nagging cough)...you??

oh dear, hope it clears soon. yup, I'm ok! Just playing a little sudoku before I have to do my nasty chores. :(

(I'm supposed to be working...) shhhh!!

lol! ok.... ssshhh ;D

*tries not to give game away by snickering like Mutley too loudly*

luckily my boss lives in a different state 1/2 way across the country!!

*roars with laughter* :D

Babs - you crack me up!!

tee hee! ;D you playing babble today? I'm not starting, going out tonight

not sure...what's the grid look like??

(aside from a square, with smaller squares with letters on them!!)

ooo!! fun...where are you going??? (and with whom??)

just to an italian restaurant on the high street with a good buddy. she's just announced she's expecting. awwww

grid doesn't look too friendly to me, :s

I don't think I'll have time once I finish this & then actually do work!

hmmm...italian...yummy!!

it's a great restaurant. nothing matches, not expensive, and has fab food. just a little family business, I think.

that's always the best kind...

I know. I like my food! ;D

sorry, just a bit of trouble with this new cd I got this week

oh - I've been jumping back & forth from this to actual work...

what cd??

the new massive attack. I got the collector's edition, little realising there's a CD with 2 sides! just had a bit of trouble getting my player to recognise it. : /

never heard of it..but I've been known to live under a rock!!

ooh, I love Massive Attack

where is tessa?

u there

ok u ready

this is fun!!

that was fun

right middle box is 1

im dun

Babs - you still here?

yes : )

I just finished...just wanted to say have fun tonight!!

aww, congrats, and thanks! :D

(gotta go do some real work now...)...catch you later!! ((HUGS))

hehe catch you later, have a good day (( HUGS )) :D

Miller... En espanol, por favor... BWA HAH HAH

:P

whos spazzy?

si, madre. you called. and spazzy is my best friend nobody and actually i wrote what she said.

now [says spazzy] i think we should be really confused

because[says spazzy] this is confusing... possibly thats why i call myself spazzy [says miller] ??? miller said none of the above that was all spazzy's fault except for this sentence mayber

make sense of that [says spazzy] not miller

yeah right says miller like we could ever understand anything spazzy says!!!

thanks for that. i feel loved

Miller... I just figured out some cool move called an X-wing... and since when does Forster let you play on the computer en clase de espanol???

i love you spazzy! since forever mom!

is nobody nomore?

mayan, you are WAY too smart for me and also i have to go because the bell is going to ring. i love you all goodbye!

That's usually the case, seph.

hi brittny

careful in giving out your real name/age, though?

(as the mother of a daughter.... be careful on the internet)

either that, or you're an undercover cop trying to ferret out another department of homeland security press guy who likes young girls

:)

done. pretty straightforward, this one.

talkative bunch

good job!

yep, i think it was one of my quickest one :)

good for you! i am just learning how to play so i will be here for a bit...

practice makes you faster :)

That is what i hear!

naturally

good luck &good buy

Thanks! Adios!

I"m closer than usual. 11 squares to go and I'm still in the running.

Seven to go....

two to go....

one to go....

I'll be darned, I actually finished one! I think that point adds 50% to my total ranking!

damn, i suck

this was an easy one...

further evidence that i suck

you gotta keep trying, it gets easier

the easy on the sudoku widget i have on my powerbook is a lot easier than this..

without anything in the middle i cave

haha, you gotta figure out a logical methodology and stick to it, just random hunting isn't gonna get you anywhere

and somtimes that means making a logical and controlled guess to figure out something, but remembering where it was, so that if you come to a contradiction, you can backtrack to the last known correct point

fortunately i've figured that much out

last time i took a logical guess though, i got screwed big time

your guess should be between 2 mutually exclusive paths, so that if you come to a contradiction, you have discovered a truth

omg is it 1 yet

go.

now.

go.

how do you know what your ranking is?
