Simon Says

This little app is a tribute to Simon Anthony, former UK team member in World Sudoku and World Puzzle Championships and co-host of a YouTube channel Cracking The Cryptic.

His catchphrases and reactions are getting iconic among the viewers, so I thought: why not create a reaction board out of them?

Things you hear on Cracking The Cryptic
Playing now
Knowledge bomb from Cracking The Cryptic
Playing now
Hang on, just a moment…
Playing now
Normal sudoku rules apply
Playing now
Very amusing
Playing now
We're gonna have to do some trickery
Playing now
I've got nothing else to do. Let's do it
Playing now
I don't believe it
Playing now
Surely I can disambiguate this
Playing now
Because
Playing now
It's probably on the bingo card
Playing now
So…
Playing now
So where shall we look?
Playing now
This is all stripey
Playing now
Watch this!
Playing now
I sound like a robot
Playing now
Why is right better than left? Because… it's not
Playing now
This is bizarre!
Playing now
That's three in the corner… Losing its religion…
Playing now
Is it sudoku?
Playing now
This is entirely thanks to me.
Playing now
Digits from 1 to 9 add up to 45
Playing now
Ermm…
Playing now
Let's just do the maths. That's the best thing to do.
Playing now
Some of the sentences are unusual
Playing now
This is me learning how to play the guitar
Playing now
I know a secret
Playing now
Forty five… forty five is the secret
Playing now
There is no one here... well, there is someone here and it’s me
Playing now
Creating a 69, which is a very memorable number for some reason
Playing now
From the P, into the U, up to the T
Playing now
Ha Ha?! Oompffhmmhmhm…
Playing now
Because you go do-ing do-ing do-ing
Playing now
Don't do nonsense
Playing now
Don't let your snake touch itself diagonally
Playing now
Kropki dots
Playing now
Norinori
Playing now
One one one
Playing now
No jokes please
Playing now
I've met many people in my life that have less personality than this Sudoku
Playing now
And that is simply because I can hear Maverick
Playing now
The answer to that is – maybe
Playing now
The things that excite me nowadays
Playing now
We like great big potent enormous deductions
Playing now
We've already had a double date
Playing now
Where is Mark Goodliffe number?
Playing now
Forced to do a Goodliffe
Playing now
I'm not doing Goodliffe
Playing now
It's too much of a Goodliffe
Playing now
Bother
Playing now
Bobbins
Playing now
Archbobbins!
Playing now
Bob-bob-bobbins!
Playing now
Bobbins bobbins bobbins!
Playing now
Shenanigans
Playing now
Now that is worth a Bobbins
Playing now
The expression we're looking for, I think, is bobbins
Playing now
That is absolutely hopeless
Playing now
And that… is absolutely useless
Playing now
Now that, of course, is completely useless
Playing now
Why did I say that?
Playing now
It's because I am a moron
Playing now
No, bobbins, this is nonsense.
Playing now
Shouldn't've said that…
Playing now
Good grief
Playing now
What on earth do we do next?
Playing now
The dreaded bifurcation
Playing now
Ah! No good, it's no good
Playing now
This is madness
Playing now
I could have done it for a while
Playing now
I'm still miles away from finishing it
Playing now
I don't have a clue what I am meant to do now
Playing now
Punched in the face repeatedly
Playing now
I haven't go a scooby-doo!
Playing now
I think I'm going mad
Playing now
I've got one digit in the grid!
Playing now
Now I can't see the woods through the trees at all
Playing now
I am going to stare at this a little bit longer
Playing now
What do we do now?
Playing now
What does this mean?
Playing now
That means nothing to me!
Playing now
It’s not a basic puzzle
Playing now
That is absolutely horrendously hard
Playing now
What on Earth am I meant to do with this?
Playing now
We can do that by…
Playing now
Oh, get it into your silly mind!
Playing now
This is mindbendingly complicated
Playing now
I'm disgusted with myself
Playing now
I'm not doing this
Playing now
It's completely and utterly barbaric!
Playing now
That Simon Anthony doesn't know what he's talking about!
Playing now
That's the guy that set this sudoku
Playing now
Are you scared yet?
Playing now
Do have a go!
Playing now
That does diddly-squat
Playing now
This is close, but maybe no cigar
Playing now
This thermometer is absolutely useless
Playing now
You are quite evil!
Playing now
Don't do that, that's naughty!
Playing now
All of which is a complete load of cobblers, isn't it?
Playing now
This must be the four most terrifying words in the English language
Playing now
Bifurcation is not necessary
Playing now
Knows what an absolute vicious beast he's created
Playing now
I've already descended deeply into the depths of madness
Playing now
That's about as useful as a chocolate teapot
Playing now
Well, that's a chocolate teapot!
Playing now
Chocolate teapot time!
Playing now
I am such a wally!
Playing now
They see each other through the miracle of madness
Playing now
What should we do now? We should cry.
Playing now
You rotten thing!
Playing now
You mean puzzle!
Playing now
I haven't got a little killer clue
Playing now
You rotter you absolute rotter
Playing now
Oh no no no no! Oopsie!
Playing now
Ooops!
Playing now
Blegh, that's not very helpful
Playing now
Simon, use your brain!
Playing now
I'm gonna go gray again
Playing now
Please just finish now
Playing now
It's beautiful and useless
Playing now
42 can't be the answer

Why is this or that phrase missing?

Because finding a specific phrase in a huge set of long videos is not that easy…
If I stumble upon something fun, I'll add it. If you do, and you want to contribute, awesome!

Just send me a link to the video with a timestamp by email or by Twitter.
Or even record and clip the sound and send me the recording(s).
Or open a pull request on GitLab yourself.

Can I use it as a mobile app?

Kinda. Check out this instruction.

Got any other cool sudoku projects?

Glad you asked!
Simon might be able to list all the possible combinations summing up to some number, but I, unfortunately, can't.
So for playing sandwich sudoku and killer sudoku I've created myself a helper: SumUp.

Can I buy you a beer?

That would be cool, thank you! Here's my PayPal.
