Uh! I didn't spot the naked triple in column 7 at all and need a hint! 😅 Thank you! 😊

Spotting hidden/naked triples are difficult for me, but I did find them eventually. My time was 9:53, solver number 55.

Yeah, that was cool (looking for "triples" and such), but I'm not sure about some of those names ("hidden triple" and such). Aren't they just "triples"? After that, I think I looked down in row7 (a triple down there), then a triple somewhere else, I forget. Fun, though.. 😆

Glad to hear that Jon. Sleuth has a great way of teaching variant rules and some of the best thumbnails out there. We thought a collaboration would add more value to all our viewers.

I don't know if I used all the tricks yet, but at 26 minutes, I'd imagine so. Now to see if I missed anything.

I missed the naked triple in column 7, but I got there with two quick short chains from the two 36 cells pointing down column 6 and in box 5. If they are both different or both 3s you get two impossibilities, one with the R4C5 cell, the other with the box three 57 cell. I'm not sure what this trick would be called. Some might think of it as a bifurcation, but when I see two cells with only two values looking at a common cell with three values where two of them are the same as the first two cells, I will sometimes ask if they can both be different first, and then can they both be the same as one or the other. Often two of these paths die quickly and I progress. Rarely has this strategy failed to at least eliminate one of the options, but again, some may consider this a form of bifurcation.

This strategy did show me though, that the 9 for row 6 is forced into box 6 because if it wasn't, then you get the same problem with the 57 cell so I guess in a way I did see it after all, just in a round about way. lol

Whilst I respect your opinion, Timberlake specialises in Classic sudoku and is one of the world’s best. Sleuth tends towards variant sudoku. Saying this is boring is a little bit rude really.

@@SmartHobbies This was basically just a list of solving methods with some examples. A strategy should at least touch on the effectiveness of the described methods, their difficulty, recommended use cases, generally it should give more help deciding when to use each one. The audience wants to know why you use that particular method in the given examples. Some even would like some comparison of computational cost of the possibilities. It would also help to have some acting classes to make your tone more expressive.
