** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
The last Oddlyeven puzzle we did was one of the best puzzles we've ever seen (Effervescence). This one is also magnificent - introducing doublers AND triplers - all resolved with just four lines :)
Play the puzzle at the link below:

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. One cell in every row, column and box is a doubler. This cell counts as double its value on the lines. Each of the digits 1 to 9 appears exactly once in a doubler cell. One cell in every row, column and box is a tripler. This cell counts as triple its value on the lines. Each of the digits 1 to 9 appears exactly once in a tripler cell. Doublers and triplers do not share cells and no doubler or tripler cell is within a king's move of any other doubler or tripler cell. Lines are Region Sum Lines: the values of the digits on each line segment within a different 3x3 box must sum to the same total (say a total of X). If a line passes through a box more than once, each line segment in that box must sum to X separately. Each blue lines may have a different value for X. Eg [the values of]
r8c1+r9c2+r9c3 = r8c4+r7c4 = r6c4+r6c5+r6c6 = r6c7+r5c7 = r5c6
