Thermo/Palindrome/Odd Mix-up

(Eingestellt am 8. Januar 2021, 06:51 Uhr von brandon_bot)

This puzzle was created for the Cracking The Cryptic Discord fan server's monthly "Puzzle Prompt" for Jan 2021, "broken puzzles".

Preamble:

The problem with creating a puzzle using thermometer, palindrome, and odd cell constraints is that a palindrome with a single odd cell constraint looks very similar to a thermometer. Fortunately, I remembered to write down which was which while creating the puzzle. Unfortunately, it turns out dogs don't just eat homework! What a disaster!

Rules:

  • Normal sudoku rules apply.
  • For each connected line and circle, either:
    1. They represent a thermometer (numbers on a thermometer must strictly increase as they move away from the bulb).
    2. The circle must contain an odd digit and the line (which extends into the circle) is a palindrome (if a number appears as the xth cell from one end of a palindrome, it must also appear as the xth cell from the other end).

Happy solving!

Lösungscode: Row 5 from left to right followed by column 9 from top to bottom.

Beim Palindrom zählt also die Kugel nicht mit, oder? Palindrom beginnt also mit dem ersten Feld nach der Kugel? Dann komme ich ständig in Widersprüche. Aber auch wenn ich die Kugel beim Palindrom mitrechne klappt es nicht. Interessant. Da muss ich irgendwo einen Denkfehler machen, den ich zum 10ten Mal wiederhole.

@ManuH Here is an example of a palindrome vs a thermo: https://f-puzzles.com/?id=y2xeye8t. The solve path should be fairly linear. If you send me the state of your board in a hidden comment, I may be able to help identify what went wrong :)
