ceebee Daily subscriber Rated puzzle: Hard Has started but not yet finished this puzzle
Couldn’t find a unique solution. Got stuck with the two 2 clues in the top row and the position of the sevens. Looked to me as though either solution would work. ☹️

for me, the 3 clue in bottom row set the 6. In the end, this determined the 7 for the two 2 clues in the top row, if I remember correctly.

ceebee, I tried to replicate the position where you got stuck. I'd guess that the two open positions in the top row were both [4,5] in cols 2 and 3. In my game, in that stage, row three contained 4 only in these two cols as well. You can then eliminate the 4 from these cols in all other rows, leading to a straight-forward continuation. Hope that helps...

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'.
