You can open it and plan how to solve the puzzle. The Puzzle Booklet has been uploaded. Our record suggests that many players are just downloading the IB and PB. |

Country : India | Administrator posted @ 2010-08-28 8:08 AM Like all other LMI tests, you can view your scores 100 minutes after you start the test. Although we've taken extra measure to ensure that the answer key is unambiguous, it is possible that some players enter the answer key in a different format. If you find that you have not got points because your answer format is different, you can claim your points here. Do NOT post your answer here. Just post the puzzle that has been marked wrong. |

Country : India | Administrator posted @ 2010-08-28 8:08 AM Of course, if you don't understand any answer key, it is better to get it clarified here before you start the test. |

Posts: 542 Country : India | rajeshk posted @ 2010-08-28 12:05 PM I just finished the test. Great puzzles. I will not put any technical comments until the test is over. My only advice is do participate in this test, you will love solving these puzzles. Thanks Rohan and Tejal for the great set of puzzles. Do put your comments when you solve this test. Also be ready with the Samuari Sudoku pieces cut as suggest in the IB. It will be helpful in the test. Edited by rajeshk 2010-08-28 12:05 PM |

Posts: 774 Country : India | rakesh_rai posted @ 2010-08-29 2:12 AM Nice test, Rohan and Tejal. I liked domino hunt and tents. I made a typing error in the answer for irregular sudoku, but the error is with a digit which is already given in the puzzle. Please check if you can consider. |

Posts: 349 Country : India | amitsowani posted @ 2010-08-30 1:56 AM Lovely set of puzzles. I liked the logic in Minesweeper, Tents, Hitori and Loop Finder. I couldnt find the logic for some of the puzzles like Tapa and Black and White and resorted to trail and error for the time bound test. The Dominos puzzle was pretty nice since the broken pieces get revealed in the very end. The other puzzles were relatively easy and hence I managed to save some time on those. Tejal and Rohan, thanks for the wonderful test :) |

Posts: 199 Country : United States | motris posted @ 2010-08-30 3:51 AM Fun but simple test. I made my typical boneheaded answer entry mistake (not counting a 90 degree turn in the zigzag that was made out of diagonal lines) but will simply imagine the score I might have had. Thanks Rohan and Tejal. |

Posts: 83 Country : Czech Republic | Gotroch posted @ 2010-08-30 5:02 AM Rohan&Tejal: Nice test Logic puzzles were great, but both sudoku puzzles were very easy, I expected something more difficult. I made answer error too (unfortunately in most valuable puzzle - In Tents puzzle I wrote vertically connected tents in second answer part instead of tents in diagonal) But Tents puzzle has great logic, I like it most (with Tapa puzzle) |

Country : India | Administrator posted @ 2010-08-30 5:46 AM Congratulations to Hideaki Jo, Ulrich Voigt, TAKEI Daisuke for topping LMI test Broken Pieces. Relatively, we've had slightly less participants, may be because of so many other tests this weekend. 75 (out of 92) got non-zero scores. Thank you everyone. |

For puzzle tests, we've had more time than actually needed, so that more players get a chance to solve most puzzles. But we realize that it is not necessarily the best thing to do. In this test, apart from you, there is Sebastin who got Scrabble Loop incorrect. It could be a counting mistake or a genuine mistake while solving, but to lose 5+46 or 32+13 (out of 100) points because of one mistake is really too much penalty, in my opinion. May be we should have 2 different targets (minutes) for top players and beginners. But I'm not sure how to do the points calculation etc. |
