I simply guessed practically the whole way through using show wrong moves. Showing wrong moves allows one to solve the puzzle without any expertise, so should it be included in the ranking at all? It has an enormous advantage over all the other aids. I have tested this on some of the sets of puzzles and have cut down the time drastically, coming ahead of those who have worked much harder. A greater advantage, even, than those who have several attempts.

Key
A yellow/light blue highlight in the time distribution charts highlights your time, where relevant.
Rating scores out of 10.0 show the average difficulty rating chosen by users, where 1.0 is "Easy" and 10.0 is "Hard".
If a puzzle is opened more than once, including by loading from a saved position, then this is potentially a significant aid so it is listed as being completed with 'multiple sessions' for the purpose of the best time/average rating displays above.
Minor aid is defined as no more than one use of 'Check solution' when incomplete and/or no more than one use of 'Check solution' when wrong; and/or using highlighting aids (show repeated digits, show broken inequalities and show valid/invalid placements [slitherlink] only). Major aid is any and all other use of the solving aids except for 'show wrong'.
