IMO, you would be better of posting in a math forum (e.g., Drexel's mathforum.org).

This is a variant of the "dining club" problem which is mathematically very hard to solve plus you have added a bunch of other constraints in that you cant have 3 consecutive numbers in any column. I suspect that you may have posed a problem that is too hard to solve (if there is a solution)
