11:40 Also 6s. In the endgame of my solve, I saw the P-ring in action. The digit was one of the 789s. Either the digit was in the corner and in the P-ring, or was out of the corner and out of the P-ring.
Really love how the Phistomefel ring, killer cages, and corners all interacted with each other. Not a tough puzzle if you know the logic. But the whittling down process kept you from spending too much time in any one area. Each deduction sent you to another section of the grid.
I’m fairly new to the sudoku world and had never heard of the Phistomefel ring before. (I needed to hear of that logic before I was able to complete the puzzle). Is there another way to logic through without knowing about it?
I'm not sure that there is as it seems to be an integral part of the puzzle....As FYI there are videos out there that explain the theorem if you are interested in learning more about it.

Wow, I really enjoyed this! I like the Phistomefel Ring, and I like how it interacts with the cages and the German whisper line in this puzzle.
Finished in 22:14. Wonderful puzzle!
Clever to use the Phistomefel Ring to sort out the corner cages. Brilliant! ❤
Very nice

Yeah a little bit of bouncing around if you see it quickly.
11:21 a great way of using Phistomefel ring! Thanks for another solve 😆
16:19 to solve.

That's a nice little puzzle
