Location: The Netherlands | I had fun. Nice puzzles. A bit surprised I somehow topped the standings so far. With 10 more minutes I might have pushed out the second pentomino, but I couldn't directly find an opening so opted for the trids instead as I figured i'd at least get some partial credit for doing those. Managed to work my way to the answer key circles for all. Think it might have been better to have complete rows for those.
[Edit] After just doing it, I think that second pentomino puzzle is absolutely brilliant.

Location: United Kingdom | Thanks Riad. Lovely puzzles from you as usual. I look forward to doing the remaining ones at my leisure.
It is a pity that the 'instant score/correction' facility wasn't enabled for this contest. It is an excellent feature of LMI contests that avoids nearly all claims for typos. |

It is noteworthy that “Pentamino 2” puzzle is not submitted by anyone.
A quick database query shows this is the first puzzle in LMI tests not to be submitted by anyone. |

Location: India | I was on my way to submitting it, and made a counting mistake and thought the solution was wrong. Only one to submit a puzzle correctly would've been quite a nice stat. Ah well..
Anyway, I don't think this is due to the puzzle being extremely hard or something, while it was definitely one of the tough ones, I think the main reason is the high percentage of easy puzzles in there that people would attempt before it. Whatever be the case I really enjoyed working through it and the rest of the puzzles on the set. |
