Some of us might wonder, not "shouting", what would be
"consecutive sudoku"?

Consecutive Sudoku:
Addition to the normal sudoku rules: 2 neighboring cells with a thick borderline between them are filled with consecutive numbers, for example 3-4 or 8-7. It may cross nonet borders. No thick borderline between the cells means they are not allowed to be consecutive.

Non-Consecutive Sudoku:
There are no thick borderlines, no cell is allowed to have a consecutive neighbor.

There are not many puzzles of that kind out there. On Sudoku Samurai and Flower Sudoku you will find one. They rotate through the different kinds of sudoku so every 5 or 6 weeks there is a new one (no archive).

The problem is in generating these puzzles and rating them. There is not a lot of documentation on specific solving techniques for these puzzles, so I would have to figure them out before I can code them.

Since I'm very busy lately, the chances are slim that I will engage in such a project.
