there seems to be few obvious errors in the IB.. Also looking for some clarifications..

Round 3 :
X-Sums - Hope the instruction is correct and the example is wrong
Next to 9 Sudoku - 9 has to be between the 2 given clues?? and the given example is wrong (Row 5)
Round 4 :
No Nines Sudoku - Does it mean sum of 2 adjacent numbers only or 3 numbers will also do (2, 3 & 4)
Consecutive Sequence Sudoku - The numbers need not be in sequence as in 879 is permitted (its there in the example)
Round 6 :
Hex Sudoku - "3 possible direction" means One side diagonal rules apply?
Round 9:
Between Sudoku - The number has to between the numbers in the circle. R1C6, R2C7, R3C6 is incorrect

Tiit Vunk had 46 seconds' headstart, but Kota Morinishi of Japan was able to overcome it & win the World Sudoku Championship! #worldsudoku. A twitter news.

I also got a medal for finishing 23rd :P There is a special award for the "Xth rank of the Xth WPC", so since this was the 23rd WPC, I got that one. Half the participants apparently don't know that this is the reason for the medal

The results of Indians at the WSC/WPC 2014 have been updated.
Sudoku: http://logicmastersindia.com/home/?g=indiaWSC
Puzzles: http://logicmastersindia.com/home/?g=indiaWPC

The full WSC results are posted on the official website: http://www.uk2014.org/results.php
I guess the full WPC results will be posted soon.

Some of you may be surprised to see the Indian WPC Team. Well, Anurag wasn't sure of traveling until the last day, so we promoted Jayant to the A-Team, who joined Prasanna, Swaroop and me. Anurag did end up coming, only to participate unofficially.

I will write about the championships on my blog this week, but I'm happy I ended up with another top-20 WSC rank and kudos to Prasanna for securing India's best individual rank at the WPC (23rd). Rishi's performance was a little disappointing (he says age is catching up ;-) ), Swaroop has improved from last year and Jayant's debut performance is promising.

Nice little summary, Rohan. I am quite disappointed with my WSC performance actually. In fact, the more I reflect, the more disappointed I get :\ In a week or so I'll probably rate it worse than my 71st in 2011.

Hi everybody!

Do you know if it is possible to download the puzzle/sudoku booklets of the WPC/WSC? If not, is there any way to obtain them?

Thanks!
