I don't think my adobe reader can input a password that long. That is pretty strange. Nobody reported the problem so far. Which version of reader do you have? (and which OS?) |

Location: India | Neeraj, DreamRose311, channa, bothrasumit: I had to edit your earlier posts because you had mentioned about the "no arrows" in Rossini on the forum. The grid was planned that way, but many solvers felt there was some mistake or missing arrows. Looking back, I think I should have put an explicit comment on the grid that "there are no arrows in this grid". That would have helped avoid the confusion. |

Location: Turkey | Hi Rakesh,
That was very nice set of sudokus with new variants and it was really
enjoyable to deal with them .  again to you, LMI and all
contributors for this event. And I'm not agree with you
for your last comment about Rossini. Because there was a clear
expression like "If there is no double arrow outside a
row/column, the nearest 3 digits CANNOT be in either
ascending or descending order." in the instructions and it
was really a good surprise to see that there were no double
arrows given for the grid . And I think there had been a smile
on the faces of solvers who dealt with it. So I think adding a
phrase like "there are no arrows in this grid" was no necessary
and spoil that effect. That's what I'm  about that issue.
Regards,
Zafer |

I am happy with the good participation level in this test (186 players from 35 countries), much more than I was expecting. Also, special thanks to many solvers who returned to LMI after some gap, notable among them being WaterlooMathie, drsteve and mackokajka. |

Location: India | Also, Fred did a very good job of testing the puzzles and eliminating some multiple solution cases.
I was worried about the timing for the test - whether it was correct. In the end, it seems that I got it right. Many top solvers were able to finish 12 puzzles and were on the verge of finishing the 13th, and except for motris and purifire (who had a very good chance to come first in this test), the others almost finished on time.
The median score in this test was 164, and average number of puzzles solved was 5.04. |
