  1. Well, this has stayed unanwered for a while (not sure anyone is still trying to solve this) so here are three new cases which should provide a big leap (but not necessarily the whole solution):

    12 ||| 4 = 4

    7 ||| 3 = 8

    8 ||| 11 = 12

    5 ||| 6 = 6

    2 ||| 3 = 3

    18 ||| 19 = 24

    7 ||| 11 = 16

    11 ||| 31 = 40

    7 ||| 28 = 12

    9 ||| 30 = 10

    15 ||| 16 = 8

    2 ||| 5 = 5

    2 ||| 11 = 11

    13 ||| 11 = 22

  8. SHARE -

    If 2 then --AR- since: --A-- is known, PENCE=0,  CHALK=1,  CHIRP=1, so only one of R and P is correct, therefore SH are not correct in SHARP=2.

    If 1 then --A-P since: --A-- is known, PENCE=0,  CHALK=1,  CHIRP=1, so only one of R and P is correct and R is not correct because SHARE=1
