Posts: 123 Location: India | Very nice concept. Looking forward for other puzzle types as well. I have a question regarding the timer, if 60 minutes is the limit then why the timer is starting from 0 rather than 60 ?. I mean the timer should go from 60 to 0 as in usual LMI monthly tests. Regards, Ravi | ||

Posts: 69 Location: Japan | I'm really looking forward to Tapa months. I have two questions about scoring. 1. Are there any penalties for wrong submissions? I submitted wrong answers in some trial puzzles, but there were no penalties. If this also applies to real competition puzzles, I feel very happy! 2. How will you decide total ranking? (Total time or total rank) for (all 50 or best **) puzzles? | ||

All wrong submissions will be penalized for real competitions puzzles. deu - 2012-02-08 11:14 AM The scoring system is designed by Cihan Altay. It will be uploaded soon.2.

Posts: 6 Location: United States | Thanks for fun the puzzles! I've tried a couple and I think my answers were correct. When I submit, it says they are wrong. Could I be shading the wrong color? I am using Firefox 10.0. | ||

Location: India | jalbert - 2012-02-10 6:17 AM We had a chat and this is resolved now. Thanks for fun the puzzles! I've tried a couple and I think my answers were correct. When I submit, it says they are wrong. Could I be shading the wrong color? I am using Firefox 10.0. jalbert was marking the white cells in a different color. So, if someone else who hasn't figured out yet, please note that, white cells can be left blank or can be marked with a circle of any color. All shaded cells HAVE to be colored (any color is fine) | ||

Posts: 16 Location: United Kingdom | Most people will know this, but CTRL-click to clear will be CMD-click (apple-click) on a Mac. In the instructions, it says you can start a puzzle 'any time in the next 24 hours' but that's actually 72 hours (with penalty) right? Gosh I am *so rubbish* at Tapa. | ||

Posts: 315 Location: The Netherlands | So the CTC rotates around the server time and not GMT like the other contests? | ||

Location: India | Para - 2012-02-11 2:26 AM That is correct. It was bit of challenge to make it GMT based. Hope it is not too much of trouble for players. Once the cycle starts, it shouldn't matter which timezone is followed. So the CTC rotates around the server time and not GMT like the other contests? CTC has started. All puzzles from 11-Feb will be used as contest puzzles. | ||

Posts: 315 Location: The Netherlands | One more question. In the standings, is the penalty already added? It wasn't the case for the test puzzles, but that might be because the scoring hadn't been announced yet. [edit] Okay more questions. I see we can rewatch our own solves. Will this be the case for other people's solves once the puzzle is over? I had this question before, but never asked. Will all puzzles be the same size or can we expect larger puzzles?

Location: India | Para - 2012-02-11 2:38 AM One more question. In the standings, is the penalty already added? It wasn't the case for the test puzzles, but that might be because the scoring hadn't been announced yet. Thanks for reminding. Yes, standing is computed after penalty is added. Added "W" column to show that. Hope to get the "actual" score page ready soon. Para - 2012-02-11 2:38 AM I had this question before, but never asked. Will all puzzles be the same size or can we expect larger puzzles? Serkan mentioned that maximum size will be 12X12. | ||

Location: India | Para - 2012-02-11 2:38 AM I see we can rewatch our own solves. Will this be the case for other people's solves once the puzzle is over? The information is stored in LMI server. So it is possible to watch others' solves. I was not sure if anybody would be interested in that. But we can easily add that feature. (We probably need players' permission to allow this. I don't know how it works in other websites) | ||
