Spot The Differences: Can we enter all 5 answers? If yes, will we get full marks if 1 is wrong and 4 are correct?

If you enter all 5 differences and if one turns out wrong then the entire answer will be treated as incorrect.

On a lighter note Rohan, once you have found 4 differences, why would you want to waste time on locating the 5th difference

Another query.........
Does the size of puzzles remain same or will it be increased...................example ABCD, DOMINOES, KAKURO, etc

The size of the puzzle can be estimated for some of the puzzles
Easy as ABCD is(A~D) in final puzzle.
Dominos is (0~8) in final puzzle.
You can safely assume that Kakuro will not be as small as the puzzle given in the example

In Box 321 is it necessary that we have only 2 sets of 1,2 ,3 in each row and each column............. at least the example is like that

@neeraj

The rules do not require two sets of 1-2-3 in each row/column.

The rule only states that in the combination cannot be repeated in any horizontal 3X1 box or any vertical 3X1 box.

In fact this site is must have in every puzzlers list. I am practicing puzzles on this site from 2004 onwards and till now there is not a single puzzle type for which I could solve all the puzzles. Hats off to Otto Janko for maintaining this site very well.

Rajesh, the domino sets will be given in the PB... for Battleships the IB clearly states, and I quoet from the IB "The fleet is shown below, one 4 unit
battleship, two 3 unit cruisers, three 2 unit destroyers and four 1 unit submarines."

Hope that clarifies.

<<<< For all non Indian participants >>>>

Since the IPC is mainly for the selection of the Indian team for the WPC it will be open for Indian participants only between 14:00 and 16:30 IST on 12th September

However after the official test has been completed we will open the test for all foreign participants for 24 hours from 12th September, 17:30 IST till 17:30 IST on 13th September. All Indian results in this duration will not be considered for selection to the national team.

If you find the official timings comfortable then you are free to participate during the official test too.

Thank you so much for opening the time window for international players

. I had my alarm set for 3 AM so I could start at 3:30 AM, but now I can get good night sleep.

Good luck to all players!

The set of battleships shown in the puzzle booklet (along side the grid) is incorrect. The correct set includes one 4-unit battleship, two 3-unit cruisers, three 2-unit destroyers and four 1-unit submarines.

Note that the grid is correct.
