Location: India | Thanks to Deb for single handedly organising the test this year.
And thanks to the authors who have created some wonderful puzzles.
It is great to see Prasanna's strong performance (under par as he would put it.)
After IPC 2011 I had told him that I would participate the following year and he can expect stiffer competition to make it to the team.
Looks like he took it very seriously :P
Also goes to show how much practice of not only solving but also puzzle creation helps in a great way.
Congrats Rohan on retaining the title :)
And most happy to see Rakesh, with him we definitely can form a team that can challenge the top few teams.

I agree that the top 4 this year is close to what I think is India's current strongest team. I say 'is close to' and not 'the best' because it is difficult to replace Rajesh, considering his experience (This is probably the first time in a decade that he isn't in the main team).
But Prasanna has been in good form with his recent improvement, Rakesh has been one of the most consistent top Indians at LMI and Amit still has the best Indian rank at a WPC, so the team is surely a stronger one compared to the last few years... |

Location: India | Congrats to Rohan, PS, Amit and Rakesh. You people make a strong Indian Team. It is really nice to see comeback of Amit. PS is improving from last 6 months and I am sure that by WPC time, he will be best among world in solving puzzles. From last few years Indian Team was missing Rakesh. His presence this year will make a strong team.
I will be missing Team India this year but I will be supporting Indian team by creating puzzles for practice during WPC time.

Location: India | Thanks Utkarsh, Rajesh, Amit, others.
Amit, I did take it quite seriously. :P When the year started, I just wanted to be in the team, but with recent performances it was inevitable my expectations would be more, no matter how much I tried to downplay it. And considering I did make about 9 errors, counting the ones where I erased and got it right the 2nd time, I say its below par. But considering previous years, and considering I always make errors( :P ), I agree its a very satisfying result. Another positive I can take from this is every puzzle I made an error in has a similar trend to it. So its quite clear where to improve ;) |

The guess the author selections disappear when they disappear from sight as you scroll downwards or upwards to select the rest. Yes. Will fix that.
(All your 'guesses' are recorded though) |

Location: India | Congrats to Rohan,prasanna,amit and rakesh. Best of luck for WPC 2012.
After seeing the whole scorepage it seems satisfactory that i am at that position because I know with what conditions i have appeared for the test. It seems that 1 puzzle mistake if was correct then i would have been in.
anyways nice experience and thanks to all authors,Deb,LMI for organizing IPC 2012. |

Location: India | Great performance by Swaroop too, narrowly missing out on the top 4.
A few days before the IPC I has spoken to Rajesh and he had correctly predicted the top 5 and he had mentioned your name.
Being away from the scene I was not aware that you have been doing so well.
Good to see you in the mix of things. Makes for stiffer competition for making it to the team in future years. |

The number of wrong submissions made by the 2nd placed individual are also identical. Very interesting indeed. |

Location: India | Indian Puzzle Championship 2012 is now over.
Congratulations again to Rohan, Prasanna, Amit and Rakesh.
Rohan played really well, but pressure did him in and he couldn't solve one puzzle although he had 7+ minutes in hand.
Prasanna kept making mistakes in every LMI test and continued to do the same in IPC as well. Hope he gets rid of this good habit soon.
When Amit told me that he wants to participate this year, I was extremely happy for him. But I was not sure if he had enough practice. He certainly proved me wrong.
We have always considered Rakesh as the dark horse and he finally proved his worth in a national championship.
It is bit harsh for Swaroop who was just 10 points - a single puzzle away for 4th position, but I'm sure he can improve a lot in coming years.
A total of 128 Indians participated during the official period. Thank you everyone.

Location: India | Among international players, top 3 positions go to deu, Kota and uvo. deu played extremely well to finish all puzzles in 84 minutes. ( I also want to thank deu for taking IPC earlier to check any problems in submission site.)
Obviously, the timing was decided keeping Indian players in target. So 150 minutes might have seemed too long for many international players. Many players completed all 30 puzzles (some with few mistakes). I hope everyone enjoyed the puzzles.
