Maki Kaji, the 'godfather of Sudoku,' dies at 69

I didn’t know it was such a new game. He saved me on many a long boring flight and jury duty.

I can find swordfish pretty well. Occasionally, an X Wing. But if try to finish an advanced sudoku with any thing else, I’m lost.

Are different types of logic required? Because my brain does not like the other advanced techniques.

I’ve done many Sudoku puzzles but I’ve never heard of this guy. I wish I had, that’s pretty cool. Rest in peace.

“Godfather of Sudoku” is such a great title, if only I could have such a sobriquet by the time of my passing.

(That above is my tribute to him.)

He actually really hated numbers. Just wanted to put them in their place.

RIP, Maki Kaji. :frowning:
