SudoCue Users

Just a heads-up: I found out the hard way that Sudocue's canonicalization routine will choke (as in, program lockup with no warning or error message) if it encounters a puzzle string with no clues (all zeroes). I inadvertently had one of these in a puzzle collection file, and it took quite a bit of ...

Here WAS / IS the A, is this the same of the B Link http://www.sudoku.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=3419&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15&sid=fb7e0011859b1ca9fcbdaee8962aefd5 In that link, the puzzle is listed as 18a, but if you follow it back to the original puzzle on sudoku.nl (xray...

If there was a separate Clueless Special 18a, I never found it. I did find an 18b that I thought was sometimes referred to as 18a. Did I misunderstand something (my bad Dutch translator), or did I fail to find the 18a?

Since Dutch is somewhat similar to Danish, English, German, Norwegian and Swedish, which I all read fluently, I roughly understand written Dutch. I understand a smattering of German and can make out a little bit of spoken Dutch, but written Dutch is another matter altogether. (My second language is...

I signed up over there mainly to get at the specialty puzzles Ruud has posted over there. (If that's what you're looking for, let me know and I'll put up images for downloading.) It's hard for me to slog through the Dutch with a less-than-stellar online translator (I wish Promt would include Dutch),...

Is www.sudokuforum.nl and xray.messageboard.nl also run by Ruud? I don't think so, although I know he's a user there. I believe "sudoku" is the administrator there, but I'm pretty sure that's not Ruud's alter-ego. www.sudokuforum.nl has changed considerably since I was last there. I don't...

Yes, perfect! Thanks!

you can take a look at Ruud's Black Friday to see what the result will look like. Very nice job! I'm still slogging my way through a couple of Clueless Specials (4a and 4b) that I started months ago (my sudoku time often gets pre-empted by family commitments and other stuff). I haven't even attempt...

In clueless helper when looking at a single grid you can click on "edit" then "copy possibles". Paste this into SodukuCue and print from there! Well, that would be handy! Too bad my Clueless Helper trial has expired (even though I never really used it once I found out it wouldn'...

Now The Question Is it more lazy to (1) print them out on paper and tape em together (2) feed em in to my program and work em out as multipul samurari or clueless. (3) rewrite the program to handle the bigger puzzles Personally, when I do a multi-grid puzzle, I print out each grid (however many the...

Agreed. No one is too busy to show up at their own website once in three months for a proper goodbye. I guess I'm not so quick to abandon Sudocue, although I've added Richard's forums to my usual "haunts". I, too, run a Web site (a school alumni site) and forums. I'm ashamed to admit I ha...

I've just updated this thread to correct links to some puzzles. Apparently sudoku.org.uk completely revamped their forums, and the links to those forums were no longer good. They are now.

Here's a run-down of the latest puzzles of each type here on the Sudocue site: Daily Lites: ongoing Daily Nightmare: 17 Feb 2008 Daily One-Trick Pony: ongoing Daily Windoku: 17 Feb 2008 Daily X-Files: ongoing Daily Jigsaw: ongoing Weekly Clueless Special: 29 Mar 2008 Weekly Clueless Explosion: 21 Fe...

Now it's 3 months ago Ruud left his last message so I phoned again just a few minutes ago. Marlie, thanks for doing this! (sorry i didn't react more early but i am very busy with my mommie who is very sick and soon will die.) {{{{{Marlie}}}}} I know both your parents have been in ill health for a w...
