Location: India | Is their any disadvantage of submitting solutions to multiple sudokus at once at end as compared to submitting answer to each sudoku one by one.
(I prefer to solve more than one sudoku simultaneously and hence need time to submit the first few answers)
Do you note the submission time for each answer? And does it affect the final ranking?

Location: India | There is no disadvantage submitting all solutions at the end (See notes below). But make sure that you submit as soon as you are done with all Sudokus.
As noted in IB, if more than one player submit all solutions correctly (that will definitely be the case), their ranking will be determined by 'Last Sudoku Submission time'
We keep track of submission time for each Sudoku, but that doesn't affect the final ranking.
(note 1) Players who are participating first time need to estimate how much time is required to submit per Sudoku. There is nothing worse that solving a Sudoku correctly, but not being able to submit or submitting a wrong answer because of lack of time.
(note 2) It is expected that many players will start submitting towards the end, and the server will be few seconds slow in responding.
Considering these 2 points, it might not be a bad idea submitting every 30 minutes or after solving 4 Sudokus

Location: India | Players who are solving online (directly on flash interface) should submit as soon as they are done with the Sudoku. There is absolutely no need to wait for solving other Sudokus.

How will those players who are solving the sudokus on paper submit their solutions? Using the flash interface only or something else? Yes, their will be a separate Flash form for paper mode.
Both the submission systems (paper and online solving) will be enabled 12 hours before the round starts. |

Location: India | Am I right in inferring from the IB that players solving online would need to completely solve a particular sudoku and only then submit it whereas players solving the same sudoku on paper and submitting through another flash interface would need to only enter the solution for the marked rows and columns for that particular sudoku? |

No.
We'll just check the contents of the marked row and marked column even in case of online solving.

Please ensure you use the same method of submission of answers. For example if you are solving online initially using flash interface then after relogin submit the balance answers also using flash interface by filling only the required row and column in each puzzle. Ofcourse the answers previously submitted will be stored in the server. |

Location: India | Hi,
I am trying to submit the Example Sudoku. However, I get the message Example Sudoku cannot be submitted.
Initially Show Examples button was disabled. But, after clicking Submit for Example sudoku, that was enabled.
Can you tell me if this is the correct behaviour? What is the reason for this?
I am using Mozilla Firefox 4.0 browser for the online test. |
