I can only see the few I completed.
All results are now available. It was supposed to be available immediately after the contest ended, like all other LMI contests. But a bug had crept in.
The link, as usual, is : http://logicmastersindia.com/2014/02P/score.asp |

I really liked Turning fences and sudokus. The worst part for me was scrabble (because I hate word puzzles) and solution code for Araf (but the puzzle itself was really nice).
About answer key of Araf : We did have alternate thoughts about it. But we stuck to this because 1 ) we used the same answer key last year (without any complaints ) 2 ) if the answer key is computationally extensive, it is same for all. |

I know it's hard to coordinate difficulty with ten different puzzle makers. But I still think that a "best 8 out of 10" approach doesn't work well with such a big spread on difficulty. However, this small scoring problems are outweighted by far by the original nature of the contest, which is a highlight of the puzzle year every time. I really enjoyed the puzzles! |

Really nice puzzles. While I didn't have time to do some of the puzzles (i.e. Araf, Mini Coral, Turning Fences ), the other 7 I did were really elegant. I wonder if a couple of days more were given, would the results have been better, but then again, I doubt most people are as busy (and slow ) as me in solving... |

Thanks anyway ! You should be able to determine that the arrowed cell is 2. Otherwise, the 2 on its left remain isolated. After that the whole left region solves easily. (There are other openings, but this is how I solved. )
