... But even with easy puzzles, I believe one can still make interesting puzzles. Some of the puzzles are really repetitive (those I mentioned); I'm pretty sure it's still possible to tweak them to be much less repetitive, while staying easy and interesting.

Thanks for the suggestions! We will try to make the future episodes more interesting and less repetitive.

 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
 Which set of puzzles did you like the most? Loop Finder
 What was your opinion about the answer key extraction? Answer keys could have been better
 Of the puzzles you solved/attempted, how well did the point values reflect the difficulty? Most puzzles were worth the right amount
 What was your opinion of the booklet formatting and printing? Just right


This was my first puzzle test on LMI and I really enjoyed it.Thanks to Rohan for an enjoyable,easy set that was encouraging to a beginner.
As to the answer keys,they were quite confusing.I made three answer key errors and entering them,in general,took away a lot of time.To be more specific,the answer key format for Tents atleast, wasnt optimal,in my opinion.

Apart from that,I really enjoyed the test.
Thank you:)
