It would be nice to see some new Torodials.

They are set to appear with low frequency because they are a subset of the wraparound sudoku puzzles, but I could increase their scheduling rate perhaps?

Wraparounds are pretty low - 19 in the last 3 months, including only 1 toroidal. Even put together in a group with 23 jigsaw Sudokus - also a subset of wraparound sudoku puzzles - it feels, they are way outnumbered by the "killer group".

Wrap: total of 42 in 90 days - e.g. about 1 in 2 days.
Killers ? I couldn't even count, but I guess an average of at least 1 per day, usually those "cloak together" like 3 on one day every other day...

I especially love torodials. I find them rather hard to find a grip on, but once I have something, it can be really joyful.

If it would be possible to have chunkier cut for them, I would be really happy.

Okay, I've doubled the frequency of jigsaw sudoku, and I've increased the frequency of toroidal+wraparound by 60%. When a toroidal/wraparound appears, I've also increased by 20% the chance of it being a 9x9 puzzle of either type, as opposed to 6x6 or 12x12.

I don't want to adjust it more strongly than that, given there generally haven't been any other comments - but I appreciate both of your points of view, and thank you!

That sounds great as I love the whole jigsaw group although for some reason not toroidals so much! Also prefer the 9x9 as well:)
