Usually enjoy Will Power puzzles. But the lack of Solution Checking detracts from that enjoyment. Today I ended up with a deadly pattern of 1s and 2s in col. 5-6, but still had the correct solution code. I appreciate everyone who creates puzzles and allows us the joy of such a wonderful variety of solves. But it seems to me any puzzle that's offered up without solution checking...well...is it difficult? Or is it laziness? I hate to judge, but this isn't the first time this has happened with Will Power puzzles, and it detracts from the experience.

@RussKozerski Hello. Just to be clear, none of my puzzles have solution checking when I put them in. I create my puzzles in F-Puzzles, add that to LMD, then use a conversion process from F-Puzzles to SudokuPad. The conversion process does not allow me to add a solution code. Sometimes, solvers add links with solution codes in the comments. The 1 and 2 in columns 5 and 6 are resolved by the Dutch Whisper on the top right. Peace to you. -Will Power

Fun speed run! My pick of Auburn is still alive...although I watch very little college basketball so I just guessed haha.

@PinkNickels My East and West brackets are done. Still hoping my South and Midwest brackets come through for me. My projected winner, Houston, is still alive. 8-)
