Location: India | As Amit mentioned in the other thread, LMI Monthly test for May 2010 will be organized on the weekend of 22-23rd May. While we are working on the details, I thought I should share the types of Sudokus to expect. There will be 6 twin Sudokus (so total 12 in number). Each twin will be related by a rule. See Example Puzzle. The test will have the following listed types Classic XV No Knight Step Trio No Touch Kropki Consecutive Touchy Quadro Symmetric Unequal Small Neighbours Odd Even We'll post the details soon.

Location: India | Now displaying the time in local time zone as well. Can the non-IST users check if it works properly / does not work? 2 places 1) http://logicmastersindia.com/M201005/ -> Login -> It should show a message below the "Start LMI Test..." 2) Click on the Timings tab. It should show local start and end. | ||

Will the puzzles have only 'row' givens? And not column givens? The actual puzzles will be replica of the examples (except of course that the digits / hints will change) does that clarify? | ||

Location: India | More than 150 downloads of the IB and more than 300 views of this thread. Hopefully there will be significant number of participants too. Being a conservative, I would think around 60. Any other guesses? Unfortunately, we can't be giving points for these guesses | ||

Location: India | One player asked me how to remove pencil mark. So I think many players might not know this trick Did you know that pressing Control key while left clicking on a pencil mark removes that pencil mark? Try that out today - You would might need it in the test if you are solving online. Not sure if this is the best place to answer. May be we should open a separate thread for these 'FAQ' kind of questions. It will be helpful for new players. | ||
