Well, sitting around after having my teeth pulled today I came up with a great, balanced game to spread minerals and challenge our SeNners minds.
Here's how it works, the pot for the month will start at 200 minerals. Each day starting at noon there will be 9 puzzles to buy, 3 easy, 3 medium, and 3 hard. The easy puzzles cost 30 minerals, the medium cost 20 and the hard cost 10. If you solve your puzzle before the next set go on sale you win part of the pot. Solving a hard puzzle gets you 1/2 of the pot, solving a medium puzzle gets you 1/4 of the pot, and solving an easy puzzle gets you 1/8 of the pot.
That should keep the pot on the higher side, and I'll bump it back up to 200 minerals each month if it's under.
The first sales will go at noon tomorrow.
30 mins - Easy:
20 mins - Medium:
10 mins - Hard:
When one is sold for the day the box will be X'd out. And I'll post all winners.
Pot: 220
Past Winners:
Merrell.

Problem is you can use a sudoku solver.

So if each hard puzzle gets you half. If i solved two hard puzzles i'd get entire pot?

No, you'd get half. Then half of what's left.
And no Sudoku solvers, they're for pansies.
And about the incorporation, I'm pretty sure a simple Javascript could work... But it would be kinda unfair if there were only 9 each round for all of sen. And it would have to be less than 12 hours to solve.
Merrell bought the first puzzle... Maybe I should change the prices next round...

We do these for extra credit in math class... they really do get easier, and I think it increases your logical thinking.

One problem is, as stated, Sudoku Solvers.
Hell, one could make a StarCraft map that will automaticaly solve any Sudoku puzzle you insert for you.
