    I wrote a program to brute-force them.
    To finish the last one, I found it faster to use its transpose because of the way I ordered things.

    I might try doing them by hand later (wink wink).

    Touché.
    Here is the hardest one I have generated. Harry can decide whether to let it post or to keep
    it for the puzzle page. Two separate programs ranked it off the scale in difficulty. But it
    can be brute-forced easily.

    
    __6 7_8 __3
    5__ 6__ ___
    __3 ___ _67
    
    __7 ___ __6
    _1_ 45_ ___
    ___ __3 1__
    
    ___ _8_ __2
    _3_ __2 4__
    7_8 1__ ___

    Your MD5 hash means you solved all the insane sudoku correctly.

    Solved your sudoku with my app. not had time for paper & pencil fun yet.

    Didn’t know whether to post your sudoku but the 3 top numbers sum to 1557.

    I’m posting the insane sudoku answers where this should have been: Challenges From Competitors.
