Great puzzle. It was solved on CTC in less than half an hour, whereas it took me over one hour (and one, albeit short, bifurcation). Time flew by.

Thanks for the solve Onkel_Dagobert! I'm glad you enjoyed this :)

Loved this puzzle. Took me a few starts and stops to work out the solve path (plus a few misclicks that I had to backtrack), but I loved the way it all came together, and how each rule interacted at critical moments.

Thanks titus2323! I really appreciate the feedback :) it means a lot!

Very very nice this puzzle, thank you djorr. I've called it "Italian Whispers"!..
.
.
I like that Chelo! I was also considering "British Whispers" as a hat tip to CTC :) thanks for the compliment!

This was a great idea. What kind of whispers do you call it?
.
.
Thanks ScatterBrain! I was originally going to call it "German Yellers" because with digits 6 apart, for the digits to "communicate" with each other, they'd really have to yell across the line :) but maybe it's better to say 6erman Whispers? Not sure! Anyway I appreciate the solve :)
