Nice Puzzle, thanks for the test

PS. I am very blur in one puzzle (Irregular), I answer row A same row B. TT
Can I claim this puzzle?

Are there 2 solutions to the Symbols puzzle? Didn't affect the answer codes but I had deduced there were going to be at least 2 solutions from early on and thought I must have made a mistake.

I started at the end of the puzzle set because that's the way my printer is set up. Those last two puzzles were really tough - especially the Arrows.

David, the rules are saying that Symbols outside the grid indicates the attributes of the first two numbers in that direction (odd/even, big/small or prime). If there's no symbol, the first two numbers don't share the corresponding attribute. I also had 46 and 64 in the first two rows in my solution but afterwards I figured out where is the problem by reading the rules. Although I'm not completely sure if my solution is correct.

It has only one solution. Like Tiit said, you probably forgot the rule "If there's no symbol, the first two numbers don't share the corresponding attribute", it should have been harder to try to solve it without this rule, I remember I used it a few times during solving and, of course, at the end, too.

I am very disappointed about the puzzle booklets and their layout. I prefer 2 grids per page, so I opened the document with 9 pages. But the grids were toooooo small. Nevertheless I printed it out and start solving. In the puzzles like Latin Square, Killer, Sudoku and Dragons I-II there were no space to write digits not even pencilmarks. So I needed to print also some pages from the bigger document. Then revealed another problem - the logo (pretty nice logo by the way) waste out all my printing color.
On the other hand, I enjoy solving the sudokus. Those under 60 points vere absolutely easy and the rest was very pretty solvable. My tactic was to skip the Symbols and solve the rest, but I made stupid counting mistake at Arrows and solved them twice, that is why I missed reltively easy Brickdoku and Skyscrapers.

Request players not to post (screenshots of) results before the contest is over. It gives, however slight, advantage to players who haven't solved yet.
