Posts: 4 Location: Austria | Hmm. Ich würde sagen, im heutigen Tapa ist ein Fehler. Und zwar links unten das Feld 1/1 - da gehört nur ein Einser rein. Oder? | ||

Fillomino-Fillia 2 Author ![]() Location: United States | Yeah, I think we have another goof. Judging from the lack of symmetry a clue near the bottom was misplaced. | ||

Fillomino-Fillia 2 Author ![]() Location: United States | For what it's worth, here's what today's puzzle almost certainly was intended to be. It's pretty nicely made and worth doing. http://mellowmelon.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/ctc-march27.png (just noticed the filename is off from the date on LMI; blame time zones) For extra fun, the solution remains unique and the puzzle gets a bit harder and nicer when you remove the four clues at the center of each cross.

CTC & TVC Author & Organizer Posts: 183 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: Turkey | I am sorry for wrong puzzles. I have not so much time recently, really i have not. Actually i uploaded today's puzzle in last hour, i checked two times, but i missed. For example, yestarday's puzzle i uploaded in the car (same like today, in last hour) :) I hope that remaining puzzles will be good. | ||

Posts: 16 Location: United Kingdom | I don't think the 'undo' button really makes much difference because you can obviously erase squares manually. But the multiple colours, as far as I can see, have no merit other than to encourage T&E. | ||

Posts: 17 Location: United Kingdom | The main problem I've had with the Tapa player is in fact exactly that I can't erase squares reliably. When I click on them there is a ~50% chance whether they empty or stay filled. Doesn't this affect everyone? I've only used Chrome, but I can't be the only one. I also had to stop using the different colours because for whatever reason I found them so different in hue that my eye didn't "see" 2x2s or notice whether they were connected together - I've made literally hundreds of incorrect submissions. :) | ||

Yes even I have this issue, thought it was a mistake probably on my side for not clicking on the cell properly. Even I use chrome. Regards, Ravi | ||

Fillomino-Fillia 2 Author ![]() Location: United States | Also using chrome and have the same issue. That was the cause of the only 2-minute penalty I've gotten; it was my last click in that region and I instantly shifted my attention somewhere else without noticing the click hadn't gone through. The reliable method I've found since is to right-click on the square twice, which changes it into a dot and then to an empty square. | ||

Happy for you. Thank you :) I guess almost everyone knows my big goal by now. Glad I achieved it, and a bit relieved after all those close ones. Of course there's still that possibility while the 72 hours are going, but I think I've done it. Seems I'm finishing the competition strongly. | ||

Posts: 315 ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: The Netherlands | So, today was the day I messed up both my chances of finishing top 3 in the TVC and CTC in one go. Any chance I can erase today and start over? | ||

Posts: 29 ![]() Location: United Kingdom | Is today really the last one? What a horrible time to finish on from me! I think I can safely say that I won't be jumping up the leader board at the last minute, so congratulations to James for being the top UK competitor. Thanks to Serkan for the puzzles. It did go on a little too long imho, but that's probably just me feeling bitter that after a few weeks (well, days) it became clear that I had no chance of making the top 3. I would've preferred 2 separate competitions of half the length (or, perhaps, 4 fortnightly contests, with each one finishing on the date of a TVC and getting progressively more difficult...) | ||

Posts: 7 Location: United States | Thank you all so much! This was great fun. I will miss this - hope you'll have the willingness and energy to do this again. I loved the online solving and the mix of puzzles. I hope the puzzles will remain online new puzzlers to tackle and for us to practice on. Is that possible? And now if you "review" a puzzle, clear, and re-solve it, you can not check your answer. Would it be possible to change that at some point? I don't mean to be asking for so much - you all deserve a good rest. My main point in writing is just to thank you for a great time. Bravo! | ||
