Just Googled "42"......who knew (I didn't)......I may have to start using this along with some of my favourite primes when doing my exercises.....one question though is when was Adams born?

That's an option, thanks for the suggestion.

Another one I'm considering is to only count the points for the 6 (say) hardest puzzles each day.

I agree with some new ideas and disagree with another ones.
There are no fewer puzzles. On the contrary, with the inclusion of 3 killer sudokus there are more.
One suggestion: if the killer sudokus are considered regular and the extra no, I think it was better to present the killer sudokus in the menu of the regular puzzles together with the others and the extras in the actual place of the killers with an independent link.

That would certainly benefit the brainy types that have no problems with the bigger puzzles but what about your average user who doesn't have an IQ of >130, you are pretty much ignoring them and of course, I'm sure, you would lose a "few" users....please just leave it the way it is.......too many suggestions can muddy the waters and create some over-thinking of a "problem" that might not even exist.

After all what happened?
I completed the 42 regular points. Later I solved a killer sudoku and in the window says I gained 0 points. But in My history it appears 3 points!
The killer sudokus have the character of regular? And if so why are not jointed to the remainder regular puzzles as I already have suggested? ( instead of the extra )
