Thanks to all authors for brilliant creations, Prasanna for organizing and to volunteers for stitching together an ideal event !

Sudoku quality was fantastic and my favourites roundwise are below :

R1 : Scattered by Gliperal and Overlapping by Liu Jun really stood out to me. I especially loved the start of Scattered.
R2 : Trio and Average by Liu Jun and Quad Max by Clover
R3 : Irregular Frame by Bill Murphy and Full search 9 by Jun Liu
R4 : Both sets were mind boggling and truly deserved to be even in a World Championship. I only wish I had done better in this round.

The experience was fantastic and hope to see most of you later this year in Kolkata !

ISC continues to set a high standard for puzzle events, balancing accessibility and challenge while showcasing some truly inventive puzzle construction.
Some of my personal favorites from the puzzle set were:

R1: Overlapping by Liu Jun and Classic 6 by Bill Murphy.
R2: Arrow and Kropki Pairs by Tantan Dai
R3: Product by clover
R4: Set 1 by Clover and Set 2 by Liu Jun. A brilliant finale to the competition, with both sets showcasing the creativity and quality that defined the entire event.

Beyond the sudokus, it was wonderful to spend the day with fellow enthusiasts who share the same passion. Congratulations to the winners, and thanks once again to everyone who contributed to making ISC so special.
