Amazing solve! It wasn't that easy to spot all the stuff going on, but you did wonderfully well!

4:44 I'd not seen these look and say clues before and they definitely take some getting your thoughts around, but you were all over it!

Great job and you saw everything eventually! My recommendation when you're solving a puzzle with a new constraint is don't forget sudoku! There were a couple of times where you could have made progress by looking at columns, but you were focused on the cages.

"It won't be a second one or a second two because there's only one one and only one two" Boy I wish I had put that together right away, I wouldn't have spent several frustrating minutes at the end utterly baffled at how to resolve the last few cells

5:58. I recognized early on that there were two 4's in the top-right 9 cells which prevented R4C5 from being a 4 and forcing 4 into R56C6. That gave me the fours in the top-right 9 cells; R1C5 then R3C4. I then got the 3 in R1C4, R6C5, R4C6 in that order. This gives the 2 in R4C4. One difference for me was that I recognized the 56 pair in C5 which you did not get until 8:50. Gotta use Sudoku rules sometimes. ;) This also gave me the 24 pair in B(ox)6C6 and the 56 pair in B6C4. There was a 56 pair in B2C6 because of the pencil marks in B4 and B6. I got the 1 in B2 afterwards. From there the puzzle basically solves itself. My one tip would be to pay attention to any affect that adding tuples or a number has on the rest of the puzzle. Simon from CTC has this same problem. On that note, you seem to have a similar problem solving method as Simon from CTC which in the long run works a lot better for more complicated puzzles. You've recognized some logic based on the variant Sudoku rules which I would have never seen. This is one reason why ChattyKathy by EPH took me nearly three hours. I have to get better at understanding the variant Sudoku logic.

Tricky puzzle! 22:38

You did another great job on this one, your scanning is getting really good! My own time for this was 4:13, which was faster than I expected when I started as I missed a few key spots. Great puzzle from Fraπ!

9:41 for me. I was going to suggest doing a killer (or little killer) sudoku as the original variant sudoku types (As far as I'm aware), and this seems like you semi-read my mind because of the cages, even if they're not killer cages

At 9:20 in your solve, do you see the three 2-4 pairs on the right? That's also roping (vertically), and because roping means that the other pairs will also do that, you can then immediately put the 5-6 pairs and the 1-3 pairs from box 6 in boxes 4 and 2.

I like you Kathy!

At 4:06, it's actually really funny. You said you would start using more corner marks, then immediately NOT mark the 2s in C6 that would've got you a digit after you realized the 2s in box 3

HOW MUCH DO YOU UPLOAD A DAY WTF ???????????????????????????????????????
