    8:51. I’m definitely slowest at Sudoku, but getting faster.

    I’m very slow at Sudoku, and is the first “plain” sudoku on this site I’ve been able to complete.

    Which is strange; my solving rate of variety Sudoku and the other kinds of logic puzzles is much higher.

    I liked how this one worked out, I had to pull things from all corners of the grid in a giant brawl for each of my first 10 or so placements before it all fell together.
