Here is a website:

http://www.websudoku.com/

Basically it's a loogical game where each box, row and column needs to contain the numbers 1-9 and can only contain each number once. So using logic you have to fill in the rest of the boxes.

My top time so far on easy has been 3:15 which is (according to the site) the top 6% I believe.

My top time on medium in like 6:30 (I think) which is top 25%.

Anyways, it's a fun little game I play when I have a few minutes at work to kill and want to give my brain a little workout.

I love Suduko. We had a company staff meeting at work where the "group activity" was Suduko and I was hooked from there.

It is actually 6:04, which is top 18%. I'd like to get that down some, but it's certainly an addictive game.

I just tried to play that game and already I hate it. I hate it because I know that it is addictive and frustrating and entertaining. Crap, thanks for the link.

Yep. The kids and I love it.

I kind of like to do the paper versions so that you can make notes.

I agree, it's MUCH easier on paper. But that's kind of why I like the web version. It makes you better so when you play it on paper you're that much better.

Playing the paper version would be a great Sacrament Meeting activity when there are particularly boring speakers scheduled.

Indeed. Last Sunday I was thinking "Man, I wish I had that Sudoku book here right now."

You can make notes on the websudoku page. You just type more than one number in a box and it will treat them like notes.

I found that page somewhere near the end of last semester. I think I can blame 1/3 of the drop in my GPA on it.

Nice! I had no idea about the notes... I'm eager to give it a go with that now... I might reduce my medium and hard/evil tiems by quite a bit.

Thanks Hippie!

(and down goes my work productivity... so curse you Hippie!)
