The numbers between grids represent the number of digits which are at the same cells in the corresponding row in both grids.

Will the puzzles have only 'row' givens? And not column givens?
Rohan,
The actual puzzles will be replica of the examples (except of course that the digits / hints will change)
does that clarify?

Location: India		More than 150 downloads of the IB and more than 300 views of this thread.

Hopefully there will be significant number of participants too. Being a conservative, I would think around 60.

Any other guesses? Unfortunately, we can't be giving points for these guesses

Location: India		I agree with you Deb... With the past trends we can expect between 50 - 60 participants which will hopefully increase month on month.

78 looks too high. I hope you will be right, and I'll be wrong

Subject: RE: LMI Monthly Test - May 2010 - Mastermind Twins - About Pencil Marks @ 2010-05-21 5:54 AM (#585 - in reply to #567) (#585) Top


20001000500202020
Location: India		One player asked me how to remove pencil mark. So I think many players might not know this trick

Did you know that pressing Control key while left clicking on a pencil mark removes that pencil mark?
Try that out today - You would might need it in the test if you are solving online.

Not sure if this is the best place to answer. May be we should open a separate thread for these 'FAQ' kind of questions. It will be helpful for new players.

Location: India		In Marked Quadro Sudoku, in the example from the IB, how can I make out that R7C5-R7C6-R8C5-R8C6 is NOT a 'Marked Quadro'? (Other than the noticeable square shape of the shaded cells?

Rohan, In the actual puzzle there won't be any 2X2 square which are adjoining to each other. Does that answer your question?

sorry to hear that.
may be 2 things would have helped you
1. solving the the types which are new to you individually from other mocks (for example mock12)
2. solving the example puzzles
