Thank you everyone for participating in our second daily contest series.

In the Early Bird leaderboard, congrats to Kartal Nagy, Thomas Luo and Freddie Hand for taking 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively.
I'll respond to the comments shortly, but in general it looks like people have enjoyed getting to know Rassi Silai and its patterns. For my part I'm very happy with LMI for providing a platform to promote this new-ish puzzle genre. I hope to see more done with it in the future. I know that bakpao has already posted some very cool variants of it on his blog

It was very interesting to see how some solvers learned the patterns quickly and climbed the leaderboards and the variance there was compared to the more familiar Tapa in the first series. Some newer solvers were able to complete the puzzle on all 16 days which is also very nice to see. Looking forward to getting back to participation for the next daily series.
