This is a page I'm adding to collect some of the aesthetically pleasing, even beautiful Sudoku puzzles that come my way. Some will be just normal Sudokus with interesting clue distributions, some will have special properties outside the strategy lists that would place them there.

Nine empty units. Could be wrong, but I can't believe there can be more than nine.
