Yes I know... I am extremely sorry that I couldnt create practice puzzles. I know for new variants it matter a lot. Deb helped me a lot in making the examples for few of the examples put in the IB. But still example for circles and repeatable extra region and diagonally consecutive were missing.

btw you will be able to see the results at 10pm IST tonight.. :)

In the example, look at Row1. The left side hint is 26. That means In Row1, either 2 is at 6th position OR 6 is at 2nd position i.e. either R1C6 is 2 OR R1C2 is 6 Is it clear now? You can solve the puzzle online too. Click Here
