Just read article in today's Times Of India. Many congratulations. Just wanted to check if you can post blank copy of the Sudoku given in competition?

Whether or not that's possible (up to ToI I'd think), if you just want to compare your general speed against the qualifiers, there's many other ways to do that, as India's top players have participated in many tests in the past here on LMI where the results and sudokus are all archived

Top 4 from Bangalore -
1. Harmeet Singh.
2. Varun Shetty.
3. Deepika M.
4. Rajesh Kumar.

Congrats to the winners! The 16 is complete.

Congrats to the bangalore round winners.. All the best to the 16 qualifiers for the national finals.. :-)

Congrats to the Banglore sQUAD.....
All the Best to Swift Sixteen......for the Finalsssss

When will the instruction booklet be out?

All d best to the final 16

Congratulations to the top 4 in Bangalore.

All the best to all of you for the final 4 positions... :)

Congratulations to all the top 16..!
perform well in National Finals..!
do well in China..!

one request/Suggestion to organizers, If it's possible please also include Variants Sudoku in Prelims next time,

My point is ,say consider person A is aware of Variant Sudokus along with the classic ones , and can solve both of them pretty good...lets assume Person B is good at only classic Sudoku, and
knows how to solve them fast,,! but what if Person B gets through prelims and Person A does some minor mistake in a hurry and could not get through..!
Person B after getting through prelims, and can only solve Classic ones ???? and what about the adaptability to variants ?
in that case Person A has lost a Valuable chance .And i am not taking about any person in general..and just a thought..!no harsh feelings..!

///Congrats to all the winners...

==Why all the complete results are not published yet,atleast for delhi and mumbai rounds.//

I assume its because they were a little pre-occupied with organizing the further rounds. Now that all regional rounds are over, I think the results might be published in a few days.

Congrats!!! Winners.... All the Best!!! for d future tournaments.... :)

Hi
z thr any1 who attend Bangalore..... let me know how d annouced d result of 1st round... do they made call to d contact numbers?????? :?

Well, based on Mumbai, yes, specific instructions must have been given at some point to give your contact numbers so that you can be called up later in the day if you made it through to the next round. The answer sheets would've had a place to fill in your contact number.

thanks Prasanna...

Most of the people who had completed 8 in the first round, waited at the venue. They started announcing the names by 12:30. Don't know if they called up others. There was a bit of confusion. It is possible that a few people may have missed making it to the next round.

All the best to the 16 finalists for tomorrow's Finals. Hoping for a close fight as always for the top four spots. :)
