Record number of new registrations on 30^th May - obviously because of this article from Jagran (written by PS).

With another 10 hours to go, we'll see where it reaches at the end of the day

I could never write that much in Hindi. :) Merely sent a mail to the contact there who wrote an article about me earlier, and answered some questions.

But great to see. Hope a good number of them stay on and become regulars.

Accept it or not, to my knowledge Deb and PS are two pillars of LMI.
We should be grateful to both of them.

Similarly we can post an advertisement in The Hindu or ToI for future National Championships. I remember a small news of 5 lines in The Hindu enabled 550 participants for ISC - Chennai Round in 2011 in IIT(M).

Its all about having contacts, really. Ones who reply and are interested. To be honest, this one article above is just one in some 5-6 places I had attempted at. The difference was I had met these editors personally when I had traveled to Lucknow to help organize the Jagran Sudoku Championship there.
