Elisabeth Daily subscriber Rated puzzle: EasyCompletion time: 33:23
I enjoy these Wraparounds and thinking we had had several of these recently I looked them up and was surprised to find them listed under Toroidal. I always thought Toroidals, being a definite pattern, were a subset of Wraparounds?? Anyway we have had a number recently and am always pleased to see them, this being no exception:)
Unlike Elisabeth I don't really enjoy Wraparounds or Toroidals. They take ages but they're really just a matter of elimination which is why I put this as moderate despite taking so long over it.

Elisabeth, you're right - the toroidal puzzles are a subset of wraparound ones. But when I first made the site, I only had toroidal ones and then I never changed the terminology afterwards. I guess that's something I should change when I eventually have time to rewrite the site. :)

Understood, Gareth!
I am not particularly keen on the actual Toroidal puzzles either, Penelope, although I don't know why. Both types take longer and the filling in is rather arduous, followed by elimination process until something emerges. But I find this is true of many of the puzzles!!

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'.
