Also, I might be wrong, but in "regional misneweeper" sample, doesn't moving (C1R4, C4R5,C5,R4) to (C2R5, C6R6, C6R2) create an alternate solution

There are several mistakes in IB.

1C: A white dot is missing between R6C6 and R6C7.
3A: A bulb is missing in R6C1. Answer key should be "301".
5C: Multiple solutions
6C: Multiple solutions (R3C7 can be blackened instead of R4C7)
7A: Two solutions

Can we know score distribution before the start of the test?

Numbers cannot be reversed. They have to be put Left-to-Right or Top-to-Bottom.
I agree that it is not clear in the instructions.

In Majilin, if a white circle is blackened, does it behave like a black circle or like a white circle? So, does the path have to make a turn, or go straight?

If any circle is blackened, the loop does not pass through that cell.

So, it is not like some of the Masyu variations we have seen where white circles become black circles.

Nice puzzles. If answer corrections are being taken, I mis-entered my solution to #6a. For the B cell I entered the shape in the region, not the shape in the cell.

Great set of challenging puzzles.
I was very bothered though by having to keep protecting the light gray lettering everywhere so I would not overlook a letter in a sequence. Slowed me down ever so slightly, and was constantly in my head. Not my favored choice of solution method.

'some cells (and not circles) will be blackened ' would have been much better.
I like fishermen at war and kropkuro..wonderful combi. but hey,whats common b/w akari and nansuke? Is the akari logic going to help fill in nansuke in
anyway, or viceversa? Or they are independent (that would be dull)..And i cant imagine finding quick openings in LITS square! I have same question about Majilin that i have about akari.Any help in progress?

Hi, thanks for this great test.
I liked the puzzles a lot, although for the first time I had problems with the solution code: I really had to search for the very hiding letters of the alphabet (in Yajilin for example my loop goes once straight over the letter so that it got invisible). And to be able to read the Kakuro-clues I had to install another printer.
Nevertheless a very good test.
