• Valid-solution checking: accepts any correct grid.
• Persistent stats: played/solved/abandoned + win %.
• Best-time scoring per grid + difficulty (one entry per player).
• Scores submenu with tournament-ready Top 10 boards(1=Gold, 2=Silver, 3=Bronze) + All-grids winners.

Updates based upon tester feedback:

• Preference for X to go back/exit in menu chains instead of B (Implemented but not documented).
• MBBS v10 console does not fully render my ANSI-fu cursor placement for MSG-driven grids; 4×4/6×6 layouts are now hard-coded too for compatibility (see Section 11 of UEEGRIDS.DOC).
• Added R ... Rules to the main menu to provide a quick Sudoku rules reference.
