:* The linked WP article [[wp:Hidato]] is of poor quality and provides very little of use, there isn't even a through discussion of rules there saying how to get to the solution. The solution doesn't seem to be full of consecutive numbers in every row, column, or diagonal; and it certainly isn't clear how the numbers got laid down. Some lines are consecutive except for one number. Others aren't consecutive at all. There may be a method but it's far from obvious.

::* Oh! The numbers wind through the grid from lowest to highest. Now why didn't it say that clearly instead of just leaving it at 'consecutive numbers'? --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 20:10, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
:* What's with the Knights Tour extra credit reference (we already have a task)? Maybe it's an easy step up but I don't see it and the task already seems complex enough. It's a nice fact that this can used for this, but why make it even optionally part of the task?

:* I think this is a solution task. Generating a board should be another task.
