Location: India | The Outside Killer in the IB has a unique solution.
I am pasting the solution here so that you can verify where you made a mistake.
The clue with the 14 on the left was simply awesome :)

Location: United States | Hello,
I am confused with regards to the Relay in section 1 of the Instruction booklet. I solved the first puzzle, but then none of the 3x3 blocks fit in the second puzzle. Can you please clarify what it is I am supposed to do exactly? Thanks! A cursory examination of submitting a row from puzzle 3 into 4 also shows that none are possible, even before I solve. Confused... |

You can change position of the transfered element. So for example You can transfer top left corner 3x3 block from one puzzle to bottom right corner (or any of possible nine positions) of second puzzle

Location: India | Was a really good Mock test.
Made a mistake by starting with the Relay in the 1st round, took really long to complete it :|
Round 2 was nice as well. Found Arrow Sudoku a little tough, wasted a lot of time on it. Fortress and No Four in a Row were good puzzles :)
In all, a very good Mock Test!
Thanks to Gotroch and Cauchy. |
