    So I post that anything involving Skyscrapers gives me trouble, and you post Skyscrapers the next day? I might start taking this personally if a pattern emerges. 🙂

      Two weeks from now, on Friday, will be a Skyscrapers variation. This is just in keeping with the normal schedule. I do not expect any more Skyscrapers until then.

      That there was a Skyscrapers Sudoku variation yesterday was my own choice, mainly to avoid styles I’d already written for the US Sudoku Qualifier on Saturday. Sometimes you just need a double refresher dose to get better at something.

        So, if I say “I don’t like cake”, I shouldn’t expect cake tomorrow?

        In regards to the puzzle, I actually liked the difficulty in this one. It took me longer than expected to break in for such a small skyscraper, and I was definitely on the outside of the expert time. Obviously a puzzle I need to improve on.

          Aww, it was just a joke. I know I need to get better at those, and all the practice I can get will help.
