How long do you take to solve the simplest puzzle manually?

I run this Club, but am no expert solver. I'm sure there are experts out there in Sudoku Village who will be willing to help us all learn all the tricks there re. I guess, if all of us, novices and experts participate, everyone can learn to solve even the most wicked puzzle.

Let me start the process by asking leading questions. Let's all add our 2 cents. Beginners and buffs.

Let's get to know each other's level of expertise.

I can solve medium level, may be 3 on a scale of 5.

What level of puzzles can you solve?

Hi Angels,

Hope you all are enjoying yourselves in Sudoku Village. Wanted to tell you all that 'New Forum Topics' has been renamed 'Village Post Office'. 'Recent Blog Posts' has been renamed 'Blog World Post Office'. So keep the words flowing in. Let's have a flood!

Hope all of you are aware...if you want to create a forum and post it in the Village Post Office, you've got to login, and be a Club Member first.

However, creating a blog in Blog World doesn't require you to be a Club Member. You can just login, click on 'Create Blog' and type away.

You can reply to existing messages in Village Post Office, without being a Club Member/ logging in.

Hey people...how've you been doing? I went on a Sudoku-solving hiatus. Now I'm back after solving quite a number of them. Busted 'em all! I need at least 3 Sudokus a day. How often do you all love solving Sudoku? Daily? Weekly? Keep me posted!

Tell me kiddies, do your parents like you spending time on Sudokus? Why?
