For the moms ... Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits along an arrow sum to the digit in that arrow's circle. A purple line contains a set of consecutive digits, in any order. Adjacent digits on a green line must have a difference of at least five. Any set of three adjacent digits on an orange line must have one digit from each of the following sets: 123, 456, 789. Digits on a red line must have a value between the values of the digits in that line's circles. Box borders divide a blue line into segments with equal sums. Digits joined by an X sum to 10; digits joined by a V sum to 5. Digits joined by a white dot must be consecutive; digits joined by a black dot must be in a 2:1 ratio.

It’s so rare I get to yell at Mark “CHECK YOUR SUDOKU!”
He and Simon love solving the puzzles using logic instead of doing the Sudoku. I've given up yelling at the screen.
The coloring really did seem to mess him up pretty bad I that respect.
He often forgets the easy win when placing a digit, just look up and down / left and right. But no Marks is going to the check something very difficult which it not solving the obvious…. It annoys me a lot. On the other hand I cannot solve the sudoku at all…..
That moment of panic, and then relief when you remember Mother's Days in other countries are not the same as your own.
Other than that, an excellent puzzle. 🙂
I finished in 43 minutes. This was a quite puzzle with some cool logic bouncing around the grid. I was stuck concentrating on the arrow and entropic lines, when I should have focused on the german whisper. Seeing it affect the arrow from across the grid was incredible. Great Puzzle!
Made it all the way to the end and ran into a large deadly pattern. Then I found a mistake I had made WAY back. After rewinding and trying again, I finally finished after 70 minutes.
This is a very creative and colorful puzzle design - it does look like a greeting card, as you said, Mark. I love the solve, too. There were so many places to look that you could not look everywhere at once. Though a couple of commenters seem to have noticed things that you "missed," it seemed to me that you were looking elsewhere. Particularly on these puzzles with lots of markings in the grid, we as viewers have the luxury of focusing our attention on anything at all, while you are focusing your attention on what you are thinking about. Thus, if you are moving along, making deductions, pencil-marking, etc., I never feel that you are "missing" anything. Just because I happen to see some particular digit that could be filled in does not mean that you did poorly not to fill it in at that moment. I love your videos - thanks for doing them every day.
Very well said! I totally agree!!
24:31 for me. Nice puzzle! Happy Mother's Day!
Surprisingly well designed❗ I can see seriously smart *artwork* here. It is not easy at all to obtain such and so many beautiful and smart interactions when you need to write letters or draw some pretty image with lines. Each different kind of line (including of course the arrows) seems to be carefully and masterfully selected to create cool interactions with the others, and they are masterfully "powered" by the kropkys.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’m already yelling at Mark to do the math on the 8-9 circle 😂
I was laughing so, so hard because I did the exact same thing, with the same reaction as Mark. Too funny! We were so concentrating on other things that we missed the tree!
Finished in 27:25. Happy Mother's to all the beautiful mothers!
Fun puzzle!
This was my 6th sudoku today and for sure the best one. Amazing logic in all the lines. I like it more because it wasn't that hard, and I could solve alone! Super happy!! 🎉
Happy Mother's Day in the USA and Canada.
"South of the border," Mexico and neighboring countries in Central America [including my adopted home of Belize, formerly British Honduras] celebrated last Thursday, the 10th.
Brilliant puzzle.
10:30 for me. Great puzzle!!
51:24
This was very enjoyable with lots of little incremental gains to be had until it finally caved in.
We're not picky on terms in the USA. Pick any of mom, mum, mommy, ma, or mother offhand, and there's probably more terms in other parts of the country that I'm not aware of, or that I've forgotten in thinking about it for 10 seconds.
85.05 for me. Love this puzzle, but I had a hard time to find the break in and break through a couple of times.
Happy mother's day!!!🎶🎵🇺🇲🇬🇷🇺🇲🇬🇷
Instructive !
Very fun solve!
32:22 for me
nice puzzle
27:30 for me - Happy Mother's Day.
solved in 14:30 - good combination of rules!
Why is the rule that "the digits on the purple line don't repeat" often not written in the rules of the last couple of puzzles but this rule is still applied during the solve? I always really really love Mark's and Simon's solves and I don't know what I would do without their daily videos, so thank you so much for that, but my perfectionist brain tries to solve the sudokus exactly according to the rules.
Happy Mother's Day to my Mom, Wife, Sister, and all the rest!
Sure hope they're not all the same person though!
Thanks for this puzzle! It was fun to watch, and I might try it myself soon!
I hope you do! Thank you.@@emilywilliams3237
I love the word 'Midly' so much... hehe... hashtag 456
"Middley"?
Very nice, doable but challenging.
31:58 for me
Mark: Mother's Day in Canada is always the second Sunday in May. In the UK, of course, it's always in March.
17:32 for me.
19:15 Placing 1 in r6c8 will make the V in col 8 a 2-3 domino and break the cell of r3c8, and therefore the Y line can only be 2 3 4 9
Mother's Day is the 2nd Sunday in May(in the US)
Never got here so quickly before
11:15
that already breaks your convention, because you have DEFINED blue to be {1234}
11:55
anyway, while that worked out ok, there is a different way of getting this result:
1) note that the 3 on the renban must be in box 5
2) and so reduce in box 4
This is an interesting puzzle. My time was 37:02, solver number 5176.
22:15 for me. could have been done more efficiently.
The rule set is a tribute to all the things moms must keep track of all the time!
45:12 for me. Not a bad puzzle.
00:39:33
17:02 the digit 2 can now be placed in r1c2
Definitely need sleep now. Three times I stalled for about 15 minutes until I spotted something obvious. Just over 60 minutes is a little slow I think for this one...
Crikey m8, your brain is porridge today
Bit rude
17:56 I didnt consider between line to be exclusionary of values in circles, since they themselves are on the line, couldnt figure out what to do in that position with my understanding of rules
You can get quite far into the puzzle before noticing that you misremembered that the orange line was a parity line (147, 258, 369) instead of entropy... 😖
35 minutes
00:33:52 for me. Great puzzle! Logic all over the place! Kind comment.
19:17 for me
I'm usually not this frustrated on Marks solves, but this is so horrible :D How many times did he thing about box 3 1/3 pair, when there's already 1 on column 9. Also he figured out early that if black dot on row 6 is 4/8, you must have 9 on the between circles, but he's missing so long that there's 9 on row 7.
I think most of us (not all of us) does the same or worst, but we do not have the good fortune of having viewers ready to warn us. So, rather than being *horrified* by Mark's occasional mistakes, I envy and enjoy everything else he does, except when he gets bogged down *for ages* by his own mistakes or intricate notation. In that case, I just stop watching, but almost always I give a 👍 because he typically feautures beautiful puzzles.
Others may love watching his epic struggles, even when they are due to bad scanning or notation.

FAQ:
Q1: You missed something!
A1: That could very well be the case! Human speech can be hard to understand for computers like me! Point out the ones that I missed and maybe I'll learn!
Q2: Can you do this for another channel?
A2: I've been thinking about that and wrote some code to make that possible. Let me know which channel you think would be a good fit!
If you did better scanning it would have gone faster 7 column 3 or the 3 in row 9.
