It was my first online test after two years and I really enjoyed the test. Very nice set of sudokus. My favourites were Arrow ( 9x9 and 6x6 ) , Diagonal ( 9x9 ) , Thermo ( 9x9 ) and the 12 pointer classic.

Thanks Prasanna for a nice test. I faced no hiccups and could solve all the sudokus smoothly.Most of the sudokus had an enjoyable solve.I felt that the round was a tad easier for an SM ?! Maybe it's just my opinion and it could also be that I am used to the style of author as all rounds in ISKL just previously were authored by Prasanna.

My favourites are Classic (12 pointer) which had a lot of pairs and triplets , Diagonal (14 points) loved the split dragon style eliminations.Very clean construction !

Hi, This is my first SM. I have scored a paltry 26 which is basically from solving the low hanging fruits of the 6x6 and then moving to the classic 9x9. This being my first contest, my strategy was to solve simple, score and then move to variants. It worked a bit for me but I basically realized a few things. My question pertains to the most prominent one. How do I improve my speed? How do I get faster on the classic sudokus 9x9 and what are good timings to wrap up the 6x6? (I get practise might be one answer I would get, but apart from that? Should there be a focus on learning more advanced sudoku techniques like wings/kites etc? And/Or just more practise? Is there a forum apart from this to discuss these things? Any groups (telegram/whatsapp) etc?
