Location: India | Superb puzzles. Great work Rakesh. Other than Outside and Skyscrapers, other three types were new to me. I really enjoyed the test though could not try the 9x9 puzzles within time. I will definitely try the 9x9 puzzles during free time. |

I have always found the outside variations of sudoku to be a weakling in my sudoku repertoire.
This test served as a good practice to tackle them head on and gain some confidence.
Unfortunately, the higher valued skyscraper puzzle ended up being broken which cost me quite some points as well as time.I spotted the erroneous logic only at the very end with no time to rectify .
In spite of that, I found this to be an excellent test with some brillantly constructed puzzles.My favourites were the Next to 9(10) and the Outside Sudoku(9).I found the latter to be under-weighed for its difficulty.But then again,it might have to do with my own limitations
when it comes to solving these outside variants.
Overall an enjoyable test.Thanks a lot Rakesh! and I sincerely hope that you get the time to author tests more frequently in the future. |

Descriptive pairs and Distance aren't my favourite variants in the world, as they can be made cumbersome by not seeing the wood for the trees, and I certainly went into bookkeeping mode for the 9x9 outside. A bit like hitori I suppose, you either get the flow or you don't.
Nevertheless this was quite a fun test from an expert point of view, even if I didn;t quite get the flow of all the puzzles. Putting myself in a beginner's shoes, for this reason it was probably a little too challenging for my tastes. |

When I use paint I was able to cross out the marked clues, but with online solving that was not possible, so got messed up. I can understand your problem. I have similarly messed up many times in other online contests and given up. Probably this is food for thought for us at LMI. We will see if there is a way to enable crossing out clues so that online solving experience is better for such variations.
Good puzzles. Thanks Devarajan !!
