Didn't find the 379 triple. Ended up marking up the entire puzzle and staring at it for nearly an hour . Then gave up and watched your video. Then kicked myself in the backside for a while. I think it's nearly impossibe to solve this puzzle without finding that triple. Thanks for your videos and making the puzzle link available.
Good and bad. The bad: 40 minutes plus and got stuck. Thanks for showing the hidden triple in box 9. That unlocked it for me. The good: I spotted the 24 pair and rattled it off pretty quick after that. So once again thanks for unlocking what was for me a difficult one. Mart in England.
Dang! I was stuck on that hidden triple @ 10:05. I had completed everything same as you until then but i spent like 15 minutes stuck and decided to see if you had uploaded. Thanks for the help. hidden triples are hard for me!
Same, everything going nicely, then I got stuck until I spotted the 379. One danger of doing these regularly is you tend to not look for some things as they don't usually come up. I tend to assume I have missed something obvious (that does usually happen). Though it wrecked my time, I was happy to spot it :)
Yeah, I was stuck until finding the 3-7-9 triple (at around 10:03). Then the rest of the puzzle resolved fairly quickly. Seems like that triple was the key.
Thank you! Gave up and came here after being stuck for 45 minutes- Toughest one in months.

Funny how this solve went very similar to yours, I spotted the hidden triple as well but took me forever to see the 24 pair sitting there. 19:30

Yep, same here. Except I spent much longer looking...

24 for me, quit hard today. Thanks rangsk!

Tough today - I had just over 19 min and same solve path as you. Figured I missed something as well. Maybe we both missed the same thing
14:42 to solve. One of the hardest for quite a while.
16:40 for me. Very nice puzzle today.
7.40.. Very nice puzzle
The 8 and 1 were crucial. Took me 90 minutes.
Don't ask me how, but instead of the 379 hidden triple, I found the 2456 quadruple in the box 😂
Same here!
Yes same!!!
same
The hidden triple was my stumbling block 28 minutes
Took me over half an hour, and I was still the first to finish. Spoiler below:
the hidden single 8 in C6R6 and the hidden triple 379 in B9 were key.
This one is the challenge. 24 minutes. A single 8 kinda helped.
