- 4. Lockout Lines: Digits inside of the diamonds on both ends of a line must have a difference of at least 4, and the digits on the line itself must NOT be between them. Each lockout line must go through exactly 3 different regions.
- 5. Kropki: Digits separated by a black dot have a ratio of 1:2.
