AWESOME! Thanks, HATMAN, can't wait to give this a go! And, thanks for the creation insights - sounds as complicated as I envisioned it! |

That was a satisfying puzzle! Thanks again, HATMAN! (I've never tried to slow myself down and write up a walk-through - should I go back and make this my 1st attempt?) |

Azpaull For assassins at least one walk-through is required. For Human Solvable a walk-through to the human solvable issue/trick after that it depends on how hard the residual puzzle is. With MeanDoku NC after the 1-9 and 2-3-7-8 eliminations: do you do anything interesting and not very obvious? With the SSS ORC some of my solutions were quite tortuous - so I'm interested in walk-throughs. Maurice |

Thanks HATMAN for this puzzle. After doing some of the earlier Meandokus last summer I was back on Assassins, including catching up on them after two trips in September and October. If I'd realised how easy this one is I'd have done it back then. "Reasonably hard" was misleading. It's about the level as MeanDoku 2, in the MeanDoku thread, and MeanDoku 11, the one with two solutions but most of that puzzle can be solved. I'm not surprised that azpaull didn't have time to write a walkthrough for this puzzle as it just kept flowing. I've got into the habit of writing my steps as I go along, having started doing that for Ruud's Assassins back in 2006; I have an Excel worksheet open for the puzzle and a Word file open for my walkthrough. For MeanDokus and similar puzzles, I colour the lines between cells and make those lines thicker so they're more visible. I started in the same was as wellbeback but then we took different paths after his step 3. Loved the neat way he did his step 4! Here is my walkthrough for MeanDoku NC X 15: Solution: |
