This puzzle was made for Scojo's Secret Imposter event.
This was my entry for a puzzle representing myself. It's an easier take on an idea I used for one of my earlier puzzles, Crudely Drawn Stickman.
Enjoy.

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules do NOT apply.
Fill every cell in the grid with a digit from 1-8.
Each orthogonally connected domino and each pair of cells connected by either end of a line all contain a UNIQUE pair of two distinct digits. (Eg. No two pairs can have the same composition of digits, and no digit can repeat within a pair.)
Draw a path connecting the two circles, containing each digit exactly once. The path may move orthogonally or from the cell on one end of a line to the cell on the other end.
Digits strictly increase from one end of the drawn path to the other. For all lines that are traversed by the path, the digit at the tip is greater than the digit at the bulb. If the line is not part of the path, the digits may be in any order.
