Since there have been changes recently to the Puzzle Portal, I thought it was worth giving suggestions to improve the advanced search function.
Currently there are 1154 unrated puzzles, which can be found by setting the difficulty to less than 1. However it is quite hard to make a decision regarding which one to choose. There also seems to be a bit of a discussion here: XV Arrow Sudoku — Rätselportal — Logic Masters Deutschland (logic-masters.de).
Here are two recommendations:
1. To be able to search based on the difficulty set by the author (number of blue stars).
2. To search based on the number of comments on the puzzle page by other users (i.e. excluding comments by the author).
The more comments an unrated puzzle has by other users, the more information future solvers would have regarding that puzzle.
If anyone has other recommendations or differing views to these suggestions, do comment below what you think.
