Kind of spend a lot of time on this, because I overlooked the knight rule at first. With this rule the sudoku was solved fast. Now I am super curious how else this mod 3 rule could be used :)
That would certainly make it difficult; glad you were able to get past that and enjoy the puzzle.

Oscar Wilde and/or Neil Peart
Both sound tempting.
