Funny how the brain works. Apparently, it distracted some solvers that 10 was not forbidden… the thougt of 10 never even crossed my mind.

I loved the logic that this rule set brought out. However I did find it difficult to remember that the anti-Knight constraint didn't apply to the same numbers or numbers summing to 10. I definitely made the wrong move several times and had to backtrack because I wasn't following the rules.
-- So glad you enjoyed, We did research summing to 5,10,15.. it is inherently broken.

That was one of the weirdest scanning trips that I've ever gone through for a long while, but I like some of the breakthroughs in the first half. Broke it once, but still a pretty fine experience :)
