Good. Another easy. I hope easier than yesterday's easy.

The obvious is evading me today

Ah, there we are.

Well, I got quite a bit of work done without greens, but now I'm going green.

I used a couple naked pairs to solve it, but didn't green them in.

Got it. Broken by a tripple.

Greenless. Mostly crosshatching with a little scan-the-row kinds of things solved it all.

Good morning all

hahaha...wow leigh...torts class must be really boring.

:-D

my google-fu is strong

hmmm

i can make my eyeballs move in 2 different directions.

but you can

can

god dammit.

i got a phone call - now totally lost all track of thought - AGAIN!!

hahhaha

Ahem. You can't see that over the internet. At least not without a webcam. And I think my torts prof might notice that.

i'll just take your word for it. but i would love to see it.

so since you guys seem bored - here's a little thing you can do - you can answer a few questions & find our yer true pirate name at www.piratequiz.com - arrrgh!!!! sinseerly, captain jenny flint

Ana can confirm. It's a little freaky. I can also make them vibrate.

personally, i think the pirate quiz is a better personality test than the MMPI

my pirate name is skippy mc skipperson.

lol

no, it's not - what kinda pirate are ye?

the gay blade type?

i'm the kind of pirate that gets beat up by all the other pirates all the time.

bloodaxe - methinks you need no other pirate name than the one you gots already, LOL - sounds like an awfully fearful pirate name already!

I'm Iron Anne Kid - the stable and reliable pirate

yar

and i'm finally done with this grid - arrrrrrrrrrgh!

i like bloodaxe more than "Black Davy Kidd"

well, black davy kidd is a heck of a lot better than skippy, ROFL!!! - but yer right bloodaxe is still the best!

thanks helen

what's your pirate name?

nm...

but ya gotta admit that captain jenny flint makes a much better pirate name than helenkeller, lol

sure does.

glad ya had a little fun, i'm going to go beat my head against the babble wall now - later gators

bye

ana, did you like my website?

Iron Bess Cash

Titus?

no, the really offensive one from a couple of days ago.

oooooh I forgot!

oh well.

9

doesn't apply b/c we don't know of any harm

my pirate name is Captain Charity Kidd

is that good or bad?

Awww you sound like a nice pirate.

maybe I should take that test again.....

6/28 is the best day of the year because not only is 6.28 2*pi, 6 and 28 are perfect numbers.

So says my math professor.

By the way, tomorrow is international Pi day. Celebrate!

Remind me what a perfect number is.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_number

Can't put it in your own words? *LOL*

hehe

n mathematics, a perfect number is defined as an integer which is the sum of its proper positive divisors, that is, the sum of the positive divisors not including the number. Equivalently, a perfect number is a number that is half the sum of all of its positive divisors, or σ(n) = 2 n.

copied and pasted from wikipedia for mr lazy bones

In other words, if you take all the possible whole numbers that can be multiplied by another whole number to obtain to obtain "X" and the sum of these numbers results in "X", then "X" is a perfect number.

minus the obvious typo is this what you're looking for?

yeah

1+2+3=1x2x3=6 6 is a perfect number

So what do you do with a perfect number when you find one?

i have no idea

love it and hold it and never let it go

Kinda like a tall thin blonde. Interesting to find and arrive at but you can't do much with it.

we kinds said the same thing.

yeah but im no math major nor am i a pimp

ill let you decide which item would be more appropriate for each lifestyle

Oh, you're headed in the wrong direction.

What's your icon by the way? It breaks up when I try to look at it enlarged.

but i can do today's sudoku and have no drive to go back to the archives today

its smoke

looks like a question mark

It's either smoke or an interesting shadow play on a vase.

A Greek vase I assume

its smoke

a picture of smoke on an all black background with just a little whiff of air that made it turn in on itself

were you lighting farts again?

no, it was the incense for the aftermath

im out of here

why is it that even when these are easy these still turn out to be hard

I have gotten totally off track with this one

the greens seem to be confusing me.

and what does everyone mean by greens? ive seen that a lot...

It's a way of marking which number you think are candidtaes for a square

ah

click on a square like when you enter a number only hold the shift key and enter the number

you get a small green number.

neat

to mark numbers you've eliminated click on "alt" and the number and you get a small red

In the newspaper I mark a small dot according to the grid location of 1-9.

but as i was asking before, why are these so freaking hard? Normally I can manage most difficulty settings, struggling only on what other sites call evil. But here, jesus.

There's a formula to find a perfect number

Yeah, I sometimes play another site called Soduko Craving. They don't have the "greenies" available and I finish even their hardest puzzles in under 20 minutes. Some of the ones here I have never finished

formula?

I dated a perfect 10 once. Does that count?

{2^n(2^(n-1) - 1)} where n is any prime number.

I think.

but what does that have to do with sudoku? if you don't mind my asking.

Look for the sixes first.

I have a box that only has 1,2,3, and 6 in it right now!

It is a perfect box.

Uh..... ok

The only perfect box has a single black number in it

I also have a box with 2,3, and 9 in it. 3^2 is 9, so we can conclude that the box is, in fact, perfectly square, and should not have any more numbers placed in it until no other candidates are available.

That was pretty easy

Used greens, took about 20 min or so

I'm going to see if a sudoku can be solved with digital roots.

*puts on experimentation cap*

Ok, no, you can't solve a sudoku with digital roots.

go

done
