Posts: 6 Location: India | Hello organizers, I would like to know whether citizens of India temporarily residing abroad are eligible to be a part of the Indian team. For instance, if someone is doing a PhD abroad or is posted to another country for a couple of years, are they eligible? | ||

For instance, if someone is doing a PhD abroad or is posted to another country for a couple of years, are they eligible? You are still eligible as long as you hold an Indian passport :) Rishi | ||

Posts: 123 Location: India | Hi All, For all the new members, here is the link for Tapa practise puzzles http://logicmastersindia.com/lmitests/dl.asp?view=1&attachmentid=22... The puzzles are sorted from easy to hard, So I recommend you to do it in the same way. NOTE : 1. Please use the booklet for practising the puzzles only. 2. These puzzles are from a competition previously held at LMI and that competition has nothing to do with the IPC 2012 except for using the puzzles for practise. 3. Please ignore Page 1 of the PDF booklet. 4. Please do not ask any questions about that competition in this thread. | ||

Posts: 35 Location: India | In the sample puzzle for Coded TomTom given in the instruction booklet, the first number should be AH+, right? It's given as AF+, which doesn't lead to a proper solution. | ||

Posts: 31 Location: United Kingdom | Hi, In the past, IPCs have been open for a longer period to allow international participation. (eg, in parts of USA, it will start at 3:30am). Will there be the option this year to participate later in the day, or even another day for other nationalities competing as guests? | ||

Posts: 1 Location: United States | Hi.. I am an Indian living in USA... I want to take part in IPC 2012. Since the test is from 2:00 pm to 4:30 pm, it will be morning 4:30 am here. What I wanted to know is, will a printer be required or will it be more convenient to solve it if we print the puzzles out on paper? If that is so I will have to run to lab early in the morning :( .... please do give me some suggestions regarding this.. thanx | ||

If you want to optimize your performance, you're probably better off with a printer and should probably decide if you can go to the lab early, but as long as you are logically sound in solving the puzzles, it won't affect you a huge lot. I gave IPC 2010 and numerous LMI tests before April on paint :) | ||

I would like to know if we must definitely start the puzzles at 2 pm, or can we start it later, say at 6 pm, provided we complete it within 2.5 hours? If you want to be eligible for Selection to Team India, and be in the official Indian IPC results, you should start it at 2 PM and you have till 4.30. It is open for longer mainly for International participants to enjoy the competition at their convenience. | ||

Posts: 89 Location: India | I thought a 15 minute window is available as per IB, it says for IPC answers will not be accepted after 16.45, referring to previous comments by Prasanna Pls confirm Edited by utkaarsh 2012-06-01 5:37 PM | ||

Posts: 5 Location: United States | Sorry, a bit of a semantics clarification question... Instruction Booklet - Masyu: "and it may not visit all cells" Does this imply that a solution cannot visit all cells, or simply that it is not a requirement that all cells must be visited?Edited by Yokipi 2012-06-01 8:36 PM | ||
