The example has been fixed now.
The instructions are correct - "Pentominoes can be rotated and mirrored."

Is there a problem with using lowercase vs. uppercase letters for answer key submissions?

You are right. There was an issue/bug. Please see an announcement message below for more details.

Hi,

if you can see my solutions, the one I sent at the beginning (around 0:10), I sent the correct rows (1 and 4), my submission page show it all red. I try at the end of the contest row 1 and 5 with uppercase, and the first half is not red anymore. Pentomino 1 has the same, I sent the solution with lowercase, all red, sent with uppercase but with wrong character at the end, only the last character shows red.

Lowercase/Uppercase submission issue


There was an issue with lowercase submissions for many puzzles. This has been fixed now.
All participants whose answers were correct but marked incorrect will get credits and penalties will be removed in such cases.

We regret if this affected your test experience.
In light of this issue, we have also decided that this test will not be considered for LMI Puzzle ratings.

In my submission record, Palindrome Snake was submitted twice at the same subtime. As a result, my score seems to be 80 points higher than the proper value.

The middle C can be an endpoint of the path.

Oh, I see. But I treated as a loop, so supposed to be no actual end, but continuous. If would be a path (with start and end) is impossible to reach all the letters.

That was a lot of fun, thank you! My good result was a bit unexpected, now I'm sad it doesn't go into the ratings. (Not seriously.)

Awesome work on getting a non-flash contest engine up and running in time! Some issues are expected, I'm impressed how smooth of an experience it was already.

Fixed a bug in the score page. Do you have details on how you could submit the same puzzle (and correct answer) twice?

We don't still have a mechanism to submit a claim yet. Hopefully, we will develop one soon, although it is bit of low priority at the moment. We have given you points for MEAN 1, but not for My Loop.
Till that is available, please post your claim/s in forum.
