    Hey, great! I LOVE Sudokus* and wasn't aware of either site.

    I've recently finished a booklet of them and was looking for new ones.

    Thanks, all!

    * I started playing them years ago when they were called Number Place or Number Place Squares by Dell. I read an interesting article about their name change in Japan, before they really became popular. I wonder if I can find it again?

    SUDOKU in Japanese means-

    Highly addictive numbers puzzle that frustrates you at first, then you get very good and forget you have other things to do because you cannot put them down.

    oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, i love them! I have an electronic sudoku machine and a book of them!!! The last week in school before Christmas, we had a german one, in which we had to do german words instead of numbers, and our team, compiled of me, Katherine and Victoria, beat all the boys (there are mostly boys in my school due to it only recently becoming co-ed) by miles! Yay!

    Juts bragging a little: I think now if they are "easy" or " moderate" I#ll do them with a ballpen.

    I love Sudoku! I originally started playing cause I saw it in the paper and was like "Oh, that's the game someone on PT was talking about" so I gave it a try. I really like it
