25 min to end Locked little numbers, Finned X wing using rows, Finned X wing using columns. For more information about finned X wings see below.
2 rules for finned X wings
1 Either the fin is true (correct) OR the X wing is true (correct)
2 2 types of finned X wings:
(a) Using rows
If the fin has a small # in a row, and is also in a corner of a possible X wing, then, if that small # is also in the same block, but, in the column of the possible X wing, it can be removed.
(b) Using columns
If the fin has a small # in a column, and is also in the corner of a possible
X wing, then, if that small # is also in the same block, but in the row of the possible X wing, it can be removed.
Note: A fin is always found in the corner block of an X wing. Removal of small #’s only occurs in the same block. No numbers are removed from the fin.

I love Finned X-Wings. Thank you for featuring this. I’ve found that Finned X-Wings can usually also be solved using Empty Rectangles, which is possible with the 5 and 6 examples you showed. Great video.
Good to know! Thanks for your support.
Hello Robin, I like the cap! Thanks so much for dedicatin your time to making these videos. I just finished your Sudoku for the young. Amazing work!

By the way, can you explain more about ALS (almost block set), Forcing chain?

Going to have to study the “Finned x Wing” a bit more, right now it’s a bit confusing. I’ll get there though!
Thanks for hanging in there.. Fern. You may need to watch the video more than once.

@@SudokuGuy Thank you for the encouragement! I actually have been watching some of your videos for about the last year or so. My favorite Sudoku puzzles to do are the “Extreme” ones and they have been so, for a lot longer than that. Been just using the basic techniques plus the few that I have figured out on my own. I didn’t even know that there were advanced techniques until I discovered you. I finally have the X Wing and the W Wing more or less figured out, I think. Some of them like this one, the Y or the YX Wing, the hatchet and the Swordfish(?), ones like that are still confusing….and yes, I continue to watch until I “get it”. Thank YOU, for being here and helping us all who love Sudoku, to be able to play it even better! ☺️ (Oh..and yes, I subbed a long time ago! ☺️)
Hello Fern I't great to hear from and know that you are a great support. Hang in there as it take a while to learn how to spot advanced techniques. You can do it with practice and patience. sometimes it is worth looking at one of my videos more than once. Hang in there.
@@SudokuGuy thankyou Robin, with your tutorials.
That was impressive

None can produce such excellent puzzle solved with great aplomb. Fortunately, I could solve this puzzle putting big numbers first to verify next with those of yours without any conflict.
Long live You and your Channel.
Congratulations and thanks for your support.
Nice vid 👍

30:00 As an alternative to the Finned X-Wing(s) at this point in the puzzle, a Skyscraper on 5s in the rows (r6c5/r9c4, connected by r69c8) eliminates the candidate 5s in r45c4 and r7c5.
You could then follow that up with another Skyscraper, this time on 6s in the columns (r4c7/r5c5, connected by r7c57), which eliminates the candidate 6s in r4c4 and r5c8, and the puzzle is singles to the end.
Either way, an enjoyable solve!

Hi Robin - I noticed that as soon as you wrote the 2 in box 7, you could have written the 4 too!
Yes....thanks for pointing this out. It is easy to miss things eh!!!
Wow that’s serious skill! Did you create the finned x wing technique?
No, but I have invented other tricks, teminiloies, and patterns. I think I learnt it from Jason Linhart. "enjoy sudoku"
Great 😃👍

I did the puzzle with a simple skyscraper technique.
For No 6, R5 C5 and R7 C5. &
R4C7, R7 C7. Top 6 s pointing towards 6 in R4 C4.
Then the puzzle solved step by step.
Congratulations ....yes there are many ways to solve.
Where do downloads of your tutorials go on my personal desktop computer? Are they on my computer or in the cloud somewhere. If on my computer, where are they downloaded to because I cannot see them in my download files? I have the same questions for my iPhone since I originally downloaded them to my iPhone?
Thanks for your question. If you go to my channel page (see link below) You will see all tutorials and lessons. I also announce on the COMMUNITY tab on the channel page when I am uploading a new video. Generally I upload around the 21 or 22 of the month The videos go live on one of those dates depending on where you live in the world. Hope this helped

I'm relatively new to sudoku and some of the techniques so I'm wondering if I'm misunderstanding part of the solve or just found a different path. At the 20:30 mark, I saw, in row 4, a 57, 67, and 56 which (if I understand things correctly) would lock 5, 6, and 7 to those cells leaving 1 & 3 for the other two cells. Looking down from each of those two cells shows where the 1 and 3 go. Did I find a correct alternative to your path? Did you see it and deliberately not use it because it would affect your finned x-wing? Anyway, it got solved.
While I watch some of Sudoku Swami and Cracking the Cryptic, I prefer learning from you. I appreciate the hours you've put into these videos.
Hello Jim...you are now looking at advanced puzzles and let me assure you that when you reach this level there may be several ways to go....much depends on what you spot, and when , also how much you know already. If you are at this level you are doing very well. Hang in there.
I learned from the first steps until this video. Is this the last one? Because I was looking for episode 98, 99...... I can't find. Thank you for all your knowledge. You are so sweet and nice 💕 and good looking. 😀
More to come! 98 99 and 100 are coming.

where can I get this white board?
I had it made for me. I also had the stencil made for me. I may be selling it in the future if I retire Have fun and hang in there as you watch and learn.
Prior to the finned x-wing, I noted that the 3 empty cells in column 6 of box 8 nust contain 1-4-7 and therefore no room for a 6 which is therefore in cell 16 (column/row notation).
Thanks for your comment. Yes you are right Robin
