I move a horsie.
I call in the legendary hero Trogdor and he burninates your horsie
Ah ha! You fell right into my trap!
eats your king
'heck 'ate.
Oh no I fell victim to one of the classic blunders!
I once had an English teacher bet me a pack of gum he could finish any crossword puzzle in five minutes. About a minute into the Sunday New York Times puzzle I gave him the gum. Motherfucker was amazing.
When I got a little better at them myself, I figured out I should have just given him the puzzle without the clues. "C'mon! This is easier! You can put in anything you want that works!"
reminds me of one of the sudokus that you can get that have like 3 fucking numbers in them. At that point you're basically designing the puzzle yourself
Those sudokus are still completely deterministc and there's only one right solution. The designers that make them usually include extra rules, like diagonals having different numbers or numbers not reocurring within certain distance of each other, to make them solveable. It's a really cool challenge to make a sudoku like that :D
