Do You Know Your Odd Numbers From Your Evens?!

*** PATREON UPDATE ***
Today we released a new monthly reward set of puzzles! Send us your solution by 20th April for a chance to win a prize!

Also Simon's solve of Phistomefel's latest puzzle: Slitherlink Liars - which is a 100 minute video (!) is OUT!

*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
A new constructor makes their debut today with a brand new - and very cool - ruleset. You can play ExFalsoQuodlibet's Parity Lines here:

https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/sudoku/qJt66F2JG4

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. Each line has two circles. One of these circles gives the total number of odd digits on the line, and the other circle gives the total number of even digits on the line. Both of these totals include the digits in the circles. For each line, the solver must determine which circle counts the even digits and which counts the odd digits. Digits may repeat along a line if allowed by the other rules. Digits in the cage sum to the given total.

▶ NEW PATREON CONTENT ◀
We have a new Competition running involving the world's hardest classic sudoku. It's been discovered by Philip Newman and, if you can solve it, send us your answer AND how you figured it out by 31 March. Philip will pick the best solutions, which will win a prize.
