After reading the tips on the other easy sudoku times thread, I switched to digit first for the past 4 months. I've continued to improve my logic, my speed and my phone (now using a nexus 5). I watched shelby27?'s youtube video that did 32s and boasted a top time of 25s all time.
All times based on EASY Sudoku.
I went from a best time of 1:30, with typical times of 2-5mins, to now a best time of 50s, with typical times of 1-3mins. My top ten is 50-54s. I know that with my current methods I will eventually hit 45s on some lucky setups. But I want to reach that next level - please advise on how you top guys reach 30-45s consistently. I'm sure I'm missing some tactics here. Please post any tips on your experiences on how you got your time down to those levels!
Thanks for any help!
Please no replies about cheating. If you want proof that these speeds are possible, just drop by Vancouver, BC and I'll finish a 1min time on your own phone.
