How to come up with a title that somehow references Autophilia, Min/Max, and Non-Consecutive constraints all at once? I tried, I really tried. In the end I settled for something that might remind you of Autophilia and Min/Max, and I just hope you remember Non-Consecutive on your own.
Every digit is given twice, and yet it still seems like it might not be enough. Except these are unfriendly digits, keeping away from their closest relations. Can’t we all just get along?
The title comes from a list that could get one banished to Australia in the late 18th century, or maybe that’s just wine marketing. It also matches the number of given digits in this Non-Consecutive Sudoku.
Opposites attract, familiarity breeds contempt, and a non-consecutive Sudoku beats a poke in the eye. These are the aphorisms by which I live my life.
