180 mins............looks like puzzles are going to be really tough......eagerly waiting for Friday night.

Neeraj, it is not correct to assume that puzzles will be tough. Branko had decided 2 hours, but we added a .5X factor so that more players can solve. It has got nothing to do with the difficulty, it is as per our discussion in the other thread.

Hi Neeraj,

In Big Bands the numbers cannot be interchanged.... but they can be reversed... in the example you have a band 1614821

This can be used linearly as given or in the reverse order of 1284161.

hope this clarifies

Your time for the mock will start after you click on "Start Mock" and you will have exactly 180 minutes to solve the mock and submit your answers.


3 hours? in one single round? :(

I think I'll not found 3 hours this weekend to do this mocktest...

Or perhaps I'll try to solve the most grids I can during 2 hours...

Fred, Branko suggested that the mock should be of 2 hours. So, you should be able to solve most (all) grid in 2 hours.
We've made it 3 hours so that many people get a chance to solve more puzzles.

Hope you enjoy the mock as much as you did in other mocks.

Puzzles are from Serbian Sudoku Championship 2010.
Relay puzzles are one round from Champ - 45 minutes round
Mix puzzles are from final set from Champ. In the final were 16 puzzles in 2 hours. I think that 75 minutes is correct time for chosen puzzles.

Thanks so much for giving score back immediately. Nice puzzles as one of the final warmups for Sunday.

(780, if anyone is curious, and it would have been 54 more if I could spell as well as I could count...)
