Bangalore Top 3:
Tejal Phatak
Jayant Ameta
Rajesh Kumar

Rishi was the fastest to finish, but missed out because of 1 wrong cell. He finished in 20 minutes!

Really sad about Rishi :( His finishing time seems consistent with Rohan's and mine (I took longer to check and submitted at 25 min). Congrats to the top 3. Especially happy for both Sanket and Tejal who fell short twice but made it this year :)

So today was a satisfying day in terms of how the TSC went for me.I got to know that close to 650 participants were present for the regional round out of which 63 were selected for Round 2.An interesting titbit is that I completed the entire set in ~ 24 mins.When I was into my 2nd minute of checking ,I saw Jaipal turning in the paper and in another 5-10 seconds I saw Ezhil submitting.I had no other choice (given the fact that only 3 would be getting to the finals) but to turn in my paper.But I was never confident that I had got all cells correct in all sudokus.I just made sure that I did not leave any cell empty before turning in the paper and subsequently I hoped against hope that none of the cells went wrong or some careless swap had crept in.

After the final round myself,Ezhil and Jaipal were sitting together waiting for the winners to be announced.When Rakesh came and announced that the 3rd finalist is Ravichandran Sir all 3 of us got a jolt.It just meant one thing :that one of the 3 us were eliminated.In what appeared to be an eternity before the 2nd finalist was announced my heart seemed to skip beats.It was a huge sigh of relief when my name was finally called out .Ezhil had submitted with an error.

So that’s the long and short of it : Jaipal :26 min ,Kishore :27min,Ravichandran :40min(Ashish submitted at 38mins but apparently he had swapped digits in some cells).About the event in general,it was heartening to see so many older people turn up for the event today and regarding the finalists from other city rounds,I am really glad to see some fresh talents coming up in the form of Jayant Ameta and Sanket who have reached the nationals for the first time.This time,I am anticipating that the finals would be even tougher with the return of regulars and veterans in the form of Sumit and Ritesh.

Though it’s disappointing to see Rishi not finishing in the top 3 because of a single error ,I am still glad that he will be accompanying the team to London courtesy of his finish in the Top 10 of Grand Prix!!!!(hopefully things don’t change drastically in the Indian round of World sudoku Grand prix : ))

Similar here, I finished my round in 17 minutes, but did checking up to 25. While checking I saw Rohan submit. If Sanket had submitted earlier too I'd have probably rushed, but luckily only Rohan was done so I thought I could stick with it and make sure its all fine.

Actually considering its best 6 of 7, the results can be quite misleading. He still needs to do well in the last GP to be in the top 10. Lets hope he does :)

There is no mention of the regional rounds in the Bangalore edition of TOI. Very strange!

The participation from Bangalore was relatively low. We had about 500 participants turn up. It was a good mix of kids, youngsters and elders. Nearly 80 people went through to the second round. In the second round, 11 participants submitted within 45 minutes, out of which 6 were right. Ball-park timings of these 6 (I don't remember the exact numbers, sorry):
Tejal Phatak: 27 minutes
Jayant Ameta: 31 minutes
Rajesh Kumar: 34 minutes
Lenson Andrade: 37 minutes
Kunal Verma: 40 minutes
Vrinda Periwal: 45 minutes
