Location: India | As discussed earlier today with Deb... There is one more implementation we can think of.... Since we are going on percentile basis.... we can let the organizer of the mock decide the length of the mock.... we can allow users to take as much time as they want to submit answers ....
say as a creator of mock If I decide the mock is of 2 hrs duration.... we ckeep it open for 48 hrs... that allows enough time for all to take part... Also anyone who completes the mock in lesser time gets time bonus based on the exponential scoring system and if anytime takes more than 2 hrs they can have negative scoring again based on the exponential system.... This way even if an average player cannot complete the mock in time.. they do have an opportunity to attempt/solve all puzzles for that mock...

Location: India | You can participate in this mock test compiled by Branko Ceranic from puzzles in the Serbian Championship for 48 hours, anytime from 20:00 IST on 26th Mar to 20:00 IST on 28th Mar (from 14:30 GMT on 26th Mar to 14:30 GMT on 28th Mar). Branko has suggested a time of 120 minutes for the test, however we will have the test in one round of 180 minutes. You can take the mock any time during this period at one stretch.
Your time for the mock will start after you click on "Start Mock" and you will have exactly 180 minutes to solve the mock and submit your answers.
A timer will be displayed on the answer page, to show how much time you have remaining.
Also, every time you click on 'Submit' (for any puzzle) it will show how much time you have remaining.
Show cells to fill will be activated 1 hour after you start the test |

180 mins............looks like puzzles are going to be really tough......eagerly waiting for Friday night.
Neeraj, it is not correct to assume that puzzles will be tough. Branko had decided 2 hours, but we added a .5X factor so that more players can solve. It has got nothing to do with the difficulty, it is as per our discussion in the other thread. |

Location: India | Hi Neeraj,
In Big Bands the numbers cannot be interchanged.... but they can be reversed... in the example you have a band 1614821
This can be used linearly as given or in the reverse order of 1284161.
hope this clarifies |

Location: India | Neeraj, I don't have the solutions. But Branko has and he will post the solution soon.
Here is another example I created a while back. Attaching the same with solution.

3 hours? in one single round? :(
I think I'll not found 3 hours this weekend to do this mocktest...
Or perhaps I'll try to solve the most grids I can during 2 hours...
