Re: 20 million solved
Thank you very much for creating another exciting puzzle! I solved the 19x19 a few days ago (without a calculator, for some calculation exercice), and I really enjoyed it. The 20x20 will obviously be a tough one to solve, because of the new number 20, and of course the impressive size. I wonder how much time this "almost impossible" puzzle will take me...

Re: 20 million solved
For me it will be zero time as these gargantuan puzzles are way beyond me .......I wonder how many of this sites puzzlers feel the same way.........like to know how many 19x19 puzzle solves and later the number of 20x20 solves......are these geared towards the best puzzlers or ???

It is not beyond me, but since I have no access to a printer, I have not bothered with these puzzles just yet. (the 20x20, the 19x19, and the ten year anniversary puzzles). And solving these things in paint is probably just asking for a load of frustration ...

Re: 20 million solved
Great work, I think I will try this one. I wonder wether anyone really uses the opportunity to submit the solution online?

Re: 20 million solved
Berka,
The rankings under BOOKS includes all the puzzles one can turn in for points, books and special edition puzzles.
As Patrick has stated 3 people (at least) have turn the puzzle in. I can tell that clm and manni are two of the people who turned the 20 x 20 puzzle.

Re: 20 million solved
Your sleuthing is impressive, eclipsegirl (and interesting). Perhaps as an extension of the 20 million celebration Patrick could post the first 20 solvers of the 20x20 puzzle.
