sudoku (051022)

sudoku (051022)

Well, I figure you're not spending enough time on the internet. That's right, it's time once again for sudoku.

The rules of sudoku: The puzzle board consists of a 9 by 9 grid, which is further divided up into nine 3 by 3 blocks. In each row, column, and 3x3 block, the numbers 1 through 9 each get written exactly once. The puzzle board generally starts with 18 to 30 of the cells in the grid already filled in. For those who need help, a short tutorial on how to solve sudoku puzzles can be found here.

To solve this puzzle, I suggest first saving the GIF on your computer. Then print it out and solve it in pencil, or if you don't feel like using paper, then solve it using a graphics editor such as Microsoft Paint.

If you do this puzzle, please time yourself and leave your time in the comments. In a day or two I will post the solution to the puzzle.

Update: the solution for this puzzle is here.
