@cascadeshiker Don't know if you'll see this, but nabner lines don't allow repeated values, while that's okay with these golden lines (if allowed by the standard sudoku rules)

I guess I still have a ways to go with sudokus as it took me 41:37
I also color coded the entire grid

I thought these were called nabner lines ... or am I missing something?

Loved the interactions between these two rulesets, I love a good parity puzzle :)

First time doing one of these golden line puzzles. Kept forgetting to mind the whole rule!

I see now what people mean by a smooth solve. This went great and, as @Teal said, color coding helped. Thanks for a fun puzzle.

this was a very fun puzzle! i have to admit the first digit took me an embarrassingly long time to notice, and i ended up color coding nearly the entire grid in odd/even before getting it! it helped in the end though :p

Eine schöne neue Idee und Konstruktion. Nice flow :-).
Oh, ich sehe gerade, dass es so etwas schon gibt, Nabner-Line (Anti-Renban). Ist also nicht neu, trotzdem sehr schön.

This was my first golden lines puzzle. I really enjoyed figuring out the implications of the constraint!
Great puzzle, thank you for setting.
