Hi. There will be a single registration for the event. The main event will be the ISC which is the qualification for WSC. SM playoffs will take place after the main rounds among the top five inexperienced finalists (Inexperienced refers to the criteria mentioned in the SM homepage).

Hi. I have a query on the qualification criteria for SM/PR playoffs. There are differences in the eligibility criteria specified in the SM home page and SM Finals page. Can you clarify which will be the final criteria. This is just for clarity between the two versions of the rule. :-)

SM Home page:

All players who have achieved any one of the following are NOT eligible to participate in the playoff to determine the Sudoku Mahabharat winner.
Represented India in A-Team at the World Sudoku Championship at least once in the last 10 years..
Represented India in B-Team / UN-Team at the World Sudoku Championship at least twice in the last 10 years..
Won the Sudoku Mahabharat title twice.

SM/PR Finals Page:

After this, there will be a playoff to decide the SM & PR winners, which will be contested among the top 5 inexperienced participants (inexperienced is defined as someone who hasn’t been to the WSC/WPC respectively).


SM Home page was correct, its been changed now.

Hi guys. One small suggestion regarding scheduling. The scheduling need to be taken care for SM finals (Aug 18) day such that we have some time for any informal discussions, suggestions at the end of the day considering we will have maximum participants for SM. We were not able to accommodate the same last year due to venue timing restrictions.

Sorry, this question is specifically directed at the actual puzzle which appears in the Finals and is not intended for better understanding of the rules, so we will not be able to answer it.

For the Trampoline sudoku,the rules mention jumping vertically from the shaded cell.Does this mean 'Vertically up' alone,or both 'vertically up and down'?

Vertically up alone, as trampoline will always try to push you up. Will add this clarification in the final version of IB.

Nice set of puzzles. Loved the concept of the entire linked round and the trampoline sudoku especially :)

When I printed out the puzzles, the shaded squares came out pretty dark. Not sure if it was my printer or what, but I hope the actual booklet will have lighter shading :)

Can you please specify which all puzzles?

I am aware of Slot Machine. That will be lighter in the actual booklet and also lighter in the final version of the IB. But let us know if any other puzzles also it's printing dark.
Thanks.

In R3,Samurai 2 , is the vice versa rule applicable across neighbouring grids?For instance,R10C13, is it correct to deduce that 8 won't be in that cell because of the 9 above ?(similar question for other grids namely XV &Consecutive)

Vice versa rule won't be applicable to neighboring grids (this will be added to the final version of IB). You can also get this by looking at R15C12 and R15C13.

Only the Quadruple clue extends to the neighbor grid, as shown in the example.
