Dieses Rätsel entstand im Rahmen von Scojos jährlichem Impostor-Event. Mein Ziel war es, ein Rätsel zu erstellen, das Lösern vorgaukeln könnte, es sei von The Book Wyrm gesetzt worden.
Regeln
Beispiel-Lösung (1–6)
Haupträtsel (1–9)
Das Rätsel kann entweder mit dem unten gezeigten Multigitter-Layout oder mit einem kompakten Einzelgitter-Layout gelöst werden.
Lösungscode: Die Zahlen der Zeile 5 des gelösten Gitters von links nach rechts, mit einem Schrägstrich (/) für Regionsgrenzen.

Stunning puzzle, full of interesting moments along the way. It was a pretty smooth solve path for me, but it’s definitely obvious that one can make a mistake especially if something is taken for granted. Also, thanks for keeping it in linear time and not making it mind-bendingly complex by employing STR as … some other setters! Thank you, Agent!

Not easy (I made a mistake my first time through and had to redo essentially the whole puzzle), and a true mind-bender, but absolutely brilliant.

I think I've misunderstood the rules. "Arbitrary" means T1 may be either before or after T2? Because the example (as well as common sense) made me assume that T1 < T2.
-- @henrypijames, that's correct, the order of the two time points is also arbitrary.
>>>
In that case, I think the rules should also clearly state that once a cell is visited, the digit in it will be fixed and won't ever change. Otherwise, the puzzle would have many solutions. One might argue that the example clearly shows this already, but the example also "clearly shows" T1 < T2, which turns out to be merely coincidental.

This is the first 5-star sudoku I've been able to solve and it's absolutely breathtaking. Loved every minute of my 2 hour journey with this masterpiece.

Wow, after Sea Level Rise by Magnus, another crazy hard puzzle that utilizes the progress of time.

Really inventive and fun! It was certainly difficult, but never brutal once one asks the right questions. Thank you!
