In honor of all he great solvers out there, I've been working on a "solver series". Today's edition is for SKORP17 - a legend in the LMG solving community.
The rules are as follows:
Normal Sudoku Rules Apply
Yellow lines are anti-consecutive lines. Adjacent digits along the line must differ in value you by at least 2.
Pink lines are Renban lines. Digits along the line are consecutive in any order.
Green lines are German Whispers lines. Adjacent digits along the line must differ in value by at least 5.
Cells along a thermometer must strictly increase from the bulb end.
Cells joined by white dots are consecutive in value. Cells joined by black dots have values in a ratio of 2:1. Not all dots are given.
Cells joined by Xs sum to 10. Not all Xs are given.
Clues outside the puzzle are little killer clues. The value of the cells along the line the arrow points to must sum to the value of the killer clue.
The puzzle can be played at F-Puzzles here!
The puzzle can be played at CTC here!
Questions, comments, concerns and jokes are all welcome! Thanks for playing!
Solution code: Row 9 followed by Column 4, 18 digits total

I Like your puzzles Tingo and it does not matter what grading I give it. The important thing is I enjoy it and comment to say so.

Wonderful setting! Hoping to see more of these, joking aside it's a great idea. I've been working on something with Irish dots the last little bit; might see your own name up in lights soon.

I don't think publishing this puzzle was wise. Feeding trolls is a bad idea - SKORP17 has a reputation of downvoting streamed puzzles and submitting solves without actually solving puzzles. Also, "LMG solving community" is a pretty ignorant phrase.

Dorlir, "Never" is a massive exaggeration. Why not rise above this level of nastiness?

You realize that the person you dedicated the puzzle never actually solve any of the puzzles right. It just use program to put the code or finds a youtube video. And many know for its bad reputation!
