Can A Sudoku Expert Master The Game Of Go?!

Apologies for anyone expecting this video at 8.30pm, hopefully you've caught up with Mark's video in the meantime. Simon has had awful issues with his computer today and was then presented with a 3hour upload time for this one... Sorry!! ** TODAY'S PUZZLE ** After a fraught day dealing with a broken computer, Simon tackles a brand new puzzle by Michael Lefkowitz and Riffclown visually themed on the game of Go! It's called Ready, Set, Go and it's a fascinating hybrid kropki idea and, in Simon's discombobulated state, not terribly easy. Can you beat his tortoise-esque time on this one?! Play the puzzle at the links below: https://sudokupad.app/fup09zll9h Rules Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits on either side of a white stone (in the same row/column) differ by exactly N, where N is the digit on the stone. Digits on either side of a black stone (in the same row/column) have a 1 to N ratio, where N is the digit on the stone. ** BRAND NEW COMPETITION ON PATREON ** On 1 October we released a brand new Sudoku Hunt competition on Patreon. There's 8 puzzles to solve by 20 October to win the chance to come onto the channel and solve a puzzle with us! Simon has also completed a series of videos (7 hours!) attempting a very difficult cryptic crossword called Periodic Location by Nebuchadnezzar.   / crackingthecryptic   ▶ LAST NIGHT'S STREAM: LORELEI AND THE LASER EYES ◀ You can (re)watch tonight's stream of Lorelei and the Laser Eyes here: https://youtube.com/live/MgskZaj-fkU ▶ ZETAMATH'S WORM: OUR BRAND NEW APP ◀ We've released a brand new collection of sudoku puzzles by Blobz.
