 Did the Instructions Booklet (IB) provide enough information about participating in ISC? Yes, mostly.
 Did you understand the Sudoku variations rules and examples from the IB? I understood all of them.
 Did you find enough easy Sudokus to solve during the championship? Yes, there were many of them.
 After your experience in ISC, are you going to participate in future championshiops or contests at LMI? Most likely

and only 197 participated from India its not seems like a national level championship.

for eg I organize a sudoku championship in my group of say 90 persons and one of us wins so he or she should say I am Indian Sudoku Champion since I beaten 89 peoples.

The ISC is free and open to anyone with an internet connection. Beyond the 197 no one is prevented from participating.

Also, the reason this is the Indian Sudoku Championship is that it is organized by the Indian Affiliate of the World Puzzle Federation.

Got it since its my first time and how I can get such a rank Is you guys have any proof of the others top players if they cheated or not.

There are many sudoku solvers available on net classic ,diagonals ,killers etc and ISC 2015 IB released 11 days before the competition an expert programmer can prepare all sudoku solvers with in such a time frame.

OR

anyone can take help from any number of person like printing all 12 pages and disturbing to 12 person and submitting as one player ID

but I have not done any cheat , neither use any solver nor taken any other person help.

Its not my place to comment on the rest of your concerns, but yes there is proof for the top players, since all of the top 10 have also excelled at offline tournaments like the Times Sudoku Championship and also the World Sudoku Championship, and the results are consistent with the ones here. Is it possible for you to participate in the Times Sudoku Championship that's coming up soon? If your result there is as impressive it is an easy way to prove things.

and one more things since sudoku is not an government register game so no one can organize its official championships.


But some groups of people coming together and making it as like an official championship is quite ...

 How balanced do you think the puzzle types of this test were? Fairly balanced
 What was your opinion of the distribution of easy/hard puzzles? Just right
 What did you think about the puzzle quality of the test? Fairly Nice
 What was your opinion of the booklet formatting and printing? Just right


Some of puzzles have too low points not balanced with their difficulty.

 How balanced do you think the puzzle types of this test were? Perfectly balanced
 What was your opinion of the distribution of easy/hard puzzles? A bit easy
 What did you think about the puzzle quality of the test? Very nice
 What was your opinion of the booklet formatting and printing? Just right


The puzzles being too easy is just due to a selfish preference, since I feel a harder difficulty suits me better :P The quality really was great, even down to the easiest ones like the True Or Lie Sudoku which had a really good simple theme. Thanks to all the authors/organizers/testers.

ISC 2015 is over

ISC 2015 was held to determine the National Champion and Indian A-team for the World Sudoku Championship. Rishi Puri won with an impressive score of 1369.6, finishing all 27 puzzles in 97 minutes. Prasanna Seshadri was the runner-up, finishing in 112 minutes, with Rohan Rao finishing in 119 minutes for 3rd place. The top 3 were the only ones among the official rankings who finished the set but Kishore Kumar came within one puzzle of a finish, with 930 points, rounding up the top 4 for the Indian A-Team.
Many of our junior team made their ISC debut this year. Aditi Seshadri (25th), Hemant Malani (28th), Shristi Kejriwal (33rd) and Kartik Reddy (84th) all posted good strong scores in the official section of the Championship while Shambo Debnath and Pranav Kamesh also had decent performances during the unofficial section.
The unofficial section was topped by Tiit Vunk of Estonia, who finished just 8 minutes faster than Rishi, whose score was enough to get him a 4th place in the International rankings. Kota Morinishi (Japan) and Jakub Ondrousek (Czech Republic) were 2nd and 3rd respectively.

Congratulations to all the winners and the debutants!

Thank you everyone for participating. We hope you enjoyed the contest. Please let us know any feedback regarding puzzles/format/etc. and feel free to rate the puzzles on the submission page.

I agree that the overall difficulty is little less than what we have seen in previous years. Just by going by the time taken by best Indian to complete the set,
2013 - 125 minutes
2014 - 106 minutes
2015 - 97 minutes

In the hindsight, I could have included few more difficult Sudokus, without increasing the number of Sudokus.
