				| The puzzle in our local paper, according to this site, was not workable.  After entering it in the draw and play section it said "too hard".  However; it was workable afterall.  Got me puzzled. |

The too hard comment means that the puzzle can't be solved by the techniques available through the online player/solver. It does not mean that the puzzle can't be solved. Many of the puzzles that I post are Graded too hard by the online player/solver. |

				Thanks "daj95376"
 
 
That thought did enter my mind but as I recall this is the first time I have seen the "too hard" response to a puzzle I have entered.  Do you know if this is covered anywhere on the site?
