Hi Deb, Looking forward to it -- but can you give an idea of how long the test is likely to be? For a weekday test, it's good to know how much time one should reserve in one's schedule. Thanks! Denis

Hi Denis, it'll be a one hour contest.

Like in most tests, the puzzles in the PB will be ordered in the same sequence as the instructions booklet.

(I won't call it "random" order because they are mostly sorted alphabetically in this test)

It will not. It is not running on weekends; so we have no idea how many players are going to participate.

I guess since it's written "Logic Masters India presents", the author is Deb. But yeah, it's a bit unusual...

WOW WHAT A TEST,
Usually i print the PB immediately after 1 minute realized why it cant be printed and then seeing puzzles realized it is not needed as well.
So Nice enjoyment test. :)
Hope i could perform this way in one of regular tests :p

Very fun. I could have saved a minute, too, if I'd noticed the "Puzzles 11-20" tab. That was a tough thing to find :)

Meh... Nice joke but no fun for those of us who were looking forward to a puzzle contest :( With 4x4 grids this could have been much better.By the way, I would like to dedicate my performance to AT&T -- "providing third-world quality internet access at first-world prices since 1876" -- who kindly contributed an extra 30 seconds to my solving time...Denis

Excellent test its not FAST its actually LIGHTNING FAST :)
After opening the puzzle booklet and saw the first puzzle I was thinking "Did I open the right pdf?, Are these the puzzles?"
Looks like the test is designed to test the capability of entering the answer keys without errors :D.

The test is really fun, especially the last one. Looking forward to more of such tests.

Thanks and Regards,
Ravi

I am only able to view the first page. I have re-downloaded it several times. Is this intentional?

Still trying to get this to work. Only LMI contest I've ever had technical trouble with. First page appears normal, other nine just say "PDF" No amount of clicking or reloading does anything else. Oh well I solved two of them for last place!

Good. I too initially thought this as IB. After downloading thrice and failing to print, I realized the PB. The first contest I finished full and got bonus points. Good fun on fools day. Thanks

Hi,
I can not see the puzzles(FAST) in PB. It is all solved one. How can I attach a screen shot.
