I didn't have time to compete but I did print these out and solved casually after. Thought Ivan might like some thoughts.
The quality of the puzzles is impressive. You could tell a lot of work has been done with each grid.
My initial impression with the IB was that I was quite put-off with all the new variations - but it built up for some interesting deductions in the test.
These are excellent examples of how you would write a fair puzzle without abusing the variants too much.
The gimmick in the Abacus Kurotto was probably my favourite.
The newer types were nice too: Greener Grasses, Maximal Archipelago and Linked Signals - nice logic in all of them.
I can't even suggest one major improvement.
It was likely good for me that I did these without time pressure, otherwise I may have not enjoyed the puzzles as much.
Congrats and thanks for the lovely puzzles.

Same question here : is it possible to have the booklet password ? I guess it was available while Flash was stille working, but that's not the case anymore.

I know that it is not an urgent matter, especially considering the big changes this site have to undergo due to Flash endlife, and the need to have everything working properly for the new 2021 contests, so don't worry if this can't be done right now :)
