It's extremely confusing and the crossed out pencil marks are hard to distinguish from the not crossed out ones. It would make more sense to have the pencil marks disappear the same way as when a number is entered. I'd appreciate it if that was taken into consideration.

I'm getting the diablo puzzles done under 7:30 now, still room for improvement : ) I use this widget too much; It’s helped me learn how to work the puzzles very quickly and figure out some advanced elimination techniques .

Ever since then, the widget doesn´t respond with the first tap of the keys and in general is very slow. Any ideas? Thanks for your time, awesome widget.

I find my scores are much higher if I do some basic narrowing down, then just do some guessing. If I only enter numbers that I have found by deduction, then not only is my time about 3x as much, but my scores are about 15% as much(85% lower) . It seems like it could be adjusted to be skewed more toward favoring length of play than errors, i.e., scores should be about equal either way it's played (guessing or deduction). Good game, btw.
