Comments:The X-Sums 98 is a must for any cross-number afficionado. It worth much less then lifetime subscription for Dell Magazine:) and its interface is perfect. I.e. I quite literally mean that there is no way for its improvement. Back in 98 CPUs were slow and monitors were CRT-based, therefore computer versions of cross-numbers could take a lot of time to generate and solving them was harmful for the eyes. Now both of these reasons to prefer pencil and paper are gone, so I wonder why isn't this program much more popular than it seemingly is. My only explanation is: the obsolete name repells the potential customers!

Comments:I am a Doubting Thomas when it comes to downloading anything off the internet. I do have Virus Protection, but, that does not guarrantee protection from getting infected. I've already sent you an e-mail to make sure that I'm not buying into something that I cannot afford at this time. The one thing your web page does not do is tell me that if I download your viewer along with the games from the page "More-or-Less Weekly Cross Sums Puzzle", is that I can download the games provided on this page and play them off-line on my computer as fast or as slow to my heart's content, without any purchase obligation. This page seems to show that I download your Viewer program on my computer followed by downloading the games available. Correct me if I'm wrong. After I down load the six games you provided, if I like what I get, then I would subscribe to your service and get the 1,000,000 games for the $19.95 subscription cost. And then, once a week, I can tap into this page and download the new games for this week. Does that sound about right? Please let me know. Sincerely, Brenda

...... However one little suggestion .... When I am brilliant enough to solve a puzzle, I don't expect to be presented with a medal or even a hand shake, but how about some triumphant music at least. All I get is a measly buzz, which in most games means an error.

My whole family (I have 5 kids) loves them, and I can't tell you how excited we were to find your site and the X-Sums program!!! The very FIRST thing my youngest son (18) and I did was solve one of each difficulty level (the hardest took 3 days)! Thank you so much for this!

I have to say your program is really great, I spend a lot of time with these fascinating puzzles :-)

I'd like to ask you if you still try to go ahead with new versions of it, maybe one more difficulty level beyond the "more diffcult", lets say the brainiac one ;-)

You did a great job!

Kindest regards

Comments:I got the full version last week and am very happy with it. Cross Sums have been my favorite puzzles for years. I have been cranking out the biggest and hardest puzzles I can and have been very pleased with the program. I print them out in b/w and work on them when I have a few minutes here and there. These are so much easier to find than the Dell puzzles and will be much more economical for me in the long run!! Thanks, Thomas!!

Comments:I have written a program for solving cross sums. Of the
five Dell 14x14 puzzles I have used for testing, four have
been solved between 1/100 and 1.0 seconds on my 1Ghz
machine. The remaining one, however, took 7 minutes 20
seconds. I guess that a skilled puzzler might rank the
difficulty of these puzzles in something like the computer
time order, although the time ratio of easiest/hardest
(1:44,000) probably wouldn't bear out. I am interested in
knowing by what technique composed puzzles are guaranteed a
unique solution. Is it a general design principle or a
heavily computational task? If you have any general comment
on this I would be interested. -Thanks, Tom Birtley

heretofore relying on Dell Math Puzzles and Logic Problems
to get my fix. Now, I can do them whenever I please. The
program works flawlessly, and contains many ingenious
features. I strongly urge any lover of number puzzles to
purchase the full version of X-Sums98. You'll find it
difficult to pry yourself away from the computer. Now, if
only Tom would create a Word Arithmetic program, I'd truly
be in heaven.

How often do you update?

I'm ready for some more.

Fabulous. Saves me the trouble of purchasing puzzle books
filled with puzzles I do not enjoy doing. I love x-sums,
logic problems, cryptograms and some anagram puzzles.
Crosswords, word finds and so many others that saturate
variety puzzle books annoy me.

Thank you for this site.

Sums for years - used to buy the Dell Puzzle Books every
month, and that was my favorite. Have always said that you
should be able to have a computer program to generate
these, and you've proven me correct. Thanks for your work -
now I can enjoy them ANYTIME, and I'm not limited to
three/month in the Dell Books. (I used to copy all the
Cross Sums and keep them in a file to do over and over.)
Thanks again. Looking forward to receiving the full
version.

Comments:From one Cross Sums fanatic to another, I can't get enough
of Cross Sums. I have devoured the latest 102 from Dell and
was looking for more when I discovered your page.

They are keeping me up late at night since my daughter
introduced me to them.

I must say that I am getting pretty good at them, but not
even close to my expert daughter. My difficulty is
remembering the deterministic numbers after 2's, 3's and
4's.

Arithmetics,etc. But the cross sums come first! I'm

Comments:Great to finally find a computer version of cross sums!
I've had the full version for a week or so and have been
playing like crazy! No bugs found yet.
Seem to have trouble hitting the right area with the mouse
cursor, sometimes not noticing 'til I hit a snag later on.
Still, it works very well and is true to the printed
version in Dell magazines.
I found this site at Everett Kaser's great site. (Puzzle
lovers check out www.kaser.com and try Sherlock.)
Xsums 98 is a great bargain at $20.
Thanks Thomas.

7 years ago and have a library of approximately 600

them handy when we travel. I have even been known to cause
slight pandemonium on many flights, passing puzzles out to
other passengers!

I am interested in your software. Can you send any
additional info?
