Soduko

So my new name for a new game is based on Sudoku. Small and subtle spelling difference better explained by Sod U Ko!

For some time I have been peeved at the stupid game 'taking over the world'. I'm sure it is because I have not given it a go really but the weird thing is - I like numbers but this game just seems ridiculous and not worth understanding.

The other thing I dislike is those who are passionate about it, what does it bring them, mind stimulation? Ok but so does reading, what does this add?

So, on a recent flight from the Sunshine Coast I turn to my in-flight magazine and for once the crossword and games page was not already filled in by the previous passengers.

I did the 20 question quiz, quite enjoyed that but then Sudoku appears. What to do.

Well I've got it. Fill it in. Don't play the game but pretend to look studiously at the grid and fill in the numbers, randomly. Don't repeat the numbers from 1-9, even this fun "look I'm good at Sudoku and a bit of a wanker" game has rules... and the joy is you can fill in at speed, rattle through the various grids in front of you, make it look easy and then really annoy the person who next sits in your plane seat.

Imagine the look of disdain as the next Sudoku fan turns to find your scribblings, tut tut they say... what was this person thinking.

Well they were thinking that maybe this was a bit of fun in a world full of toss pots and they rather wish they'd seen your face when you worked out they were messing with your page. Or maybe they'd just say: Sod U Ko!

Whatever, give it a go, particularly if you can't face the crossword!
