Hi Gareth... it seems wrong to me that anyone using significant aids to complete a puzzle can then mark it as 'easy'. Obviously, if they genuinely found it easy then they wouldn't have used the aids in the first place. I know we've all been caught out having to save a puzzle due to interruptions, or made a simple error we've then had to rectify (or even press an aid button in error!), but I do feel there is a bit of a problem here. Any chance this can be rectified? :)

Took me awhile to do, but it was actually very straightforward; not easy to see all the 'pencil marks' as they are rather small in a 12x12 puzzle. I see the question of aided versus non-aided is rearing it's head again!!

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'.
