Seashell Sudoku



Click on the Image for a Larger Version


How to Play

This is a standard Sudoku puzzle. In order to solve the Sudoku puzzle, you must use all 9 seashells in each square, row, and column. In any square, row, or column, you cannot use any seashell more than once.

If you are unfamiliar with solving Sudoku puzzles, I'd suggest searching the internet on how to solve them before attempting this puzzle.

Please do not say that this puzzle is impossible to solve. It may be difficult, but it is possible and it does have a proper solution.


Rules

1. You must complete the Sudoku by yourself. No exceptions.

2. DO NOT post or share your Sudoku or any answers anywhere on Sylestia!!! You will automatically be disqualified from all Forum Games if you do this and you will make me very unhappy!

3. You must submit your completed Sudoku using the seashells. You cannot replace them with numbers. Failing to use the seashells will disqualify your entry.

4. After completion, you must upload your Sudoku to an image uploading site, such as http://imgur.com. If you choose to print out the Sudoku, then you will need a way to scan the completed Sudoku back onto your computer and then upload it to an image uploading site.

5. After you have uploaded your completed Sudoku, send a PM to OfficialGames with your completed Sudoku image and title the PM "Seashell Sudoku".

6. Please DO NOT PM me your Sudoku!!! I will ignore it and your entry will NOT be counted. Additionally, please also do not PM me asking me to check your Sudoku to see if you've gotten it correct or if it's been sent. The onus is on you to follow the rules and submit your entry correctly. Feel free to ask any questions regarding the rules directly here in this thread.

7. The due date for submitting your entry is by the end of the Summer Festival.

Download the provided image and open it in your image editing program of preference (Such as Photoshop). And then use its tools to cut/copy/paste the Shells as you want to move them around and such.

So, when I went to view the image that I sent (I always like to make sure I sent the correct thing no matter what site I'm on) I accidentally hit the "resend" button instead of the "close" button. Will sending it twice disqualify me? If so that's fine, I should have read the buttons before I hit them anyway.

Nope. We will just disregard the 2nd one. Thank you for letting us know.
