About one month ago, Deb came to me with idea to prepare Variants for March test.
I usually don't make sudokus (and puzzles), but in last few months I created some sudokus and puzzles and decided to confirm to Deb.
I have some troubles and errors during test preparation, but at the end I'm glad that I succeeded to finish sudokus for test.
Deb, thank you!

One of the Variants (Renban) left from sudokus I created for Serbian round of WPF Grand Prix (Nikola, Cedomir and Zoran made rest), so I use a chance to invite all of you to play also in about two weeks from now.

Beginners' Contest March is over.

Congrats to nyoroppyi (Japan), dp_94 (India) and affpuzz (USA) for achieving the top positions.

Among the seasoners, janoslaw (Poland), Timothy (France) and Gotroch (Czech Republic) lead the standings.

Thanks to Branko Ceranic for authoring an enjoyable set of Sudokus.

On a personal note, the Frame and then the Renban were my favorites. I'm quite surprised at a top 10 finish, I didn't think it went all that well while solving. Looking forward to the Serbian GP now :)

We can't see anything wrong at our end, and your profile's Country field is empty, so you've not done Step 1 completely. Do remember that if you are participating for the first time, filling out the Country field is mandatory.

Hi Sanchita. The only contest going on right now is the Indian Puzzle Championship, but the official part of that is over.

Beginners' Sudoku contests are held regularly through the year, and if you just look at the forum once in a while, you'll see the latest ongoing contest in the top right of your screen.

As of now, there aren't any monthly contests announced. The next contest here will be the ISC which you can follow up on here - http://logicmastersindia.com/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=712 .

Other than that, visit the forum regularly, the current contest will be present on the top right (Where the Times Sudoku Championship 2013 is shown right now). You can also keep an eye on this topic itself for future Beginners' contests. You can solve the past contests in the mean time by going through the archives here - http://logicmastersindia.com/BeginnersSudoku/ .
