Country : India | Administrator posted @ 2010-09-12 3:30 PM After the official test is over, IPC will be open for international participants (and for Indians who missed it during the official time). 17:30 12-Sep till 17:30 13-Sep. To be fair to everyone, we request the official participants not to discuss about the puzzles before 17:30 on 13-Sep. They should refrain from discussing about answers / difficulties of puzzles / strategies / tricks / password / uniqueness / errors during this period. |

Posts: 42 Country : United States | Ziti posted @ 2010-09-12 4:32 PM Oh, so you mean I did not have to stay awake until 5:00am to take this test!? I should have read the messages before taking the test. :) It was a very nice test -- accessible and fun with lots of new variations that were fresh but not too obscure; and you had plenty of sudoku in here too! I thank the LMI team once again for their great work. |

Can you please check? yes, wrong warning message. Your submission will be accepted with 7 digits. I initially submitted with 7 digits. And since it was wrongly erroring out, I submitted without the digit already included in the question (i.e. the digit '1' in the fourth column which was already displayed in the grid in the question). Since, I guess there could be more people like me, therefore, IMHO both XXX1XXX & XXXXXX should be accepted as correct. Rajib. |

Posts: 16 Country : Hungary | wicktroll posted @ 2010-09-12 8:27 PM The characters given for the answer key are differently set for Battleships in the IB and in the PB. In the IB characters start on the left of the grid from 'A' and continue on the top of the grid from 'I'. While in the PB characters start on the top from 'A' and continue on the left from 'L'. In the IB the answer key is getting the first part of the coordinate from the left and then from the top. I used the same procedure to generate my answer key (first character from left, second from top) and I got 0 points to my answer. Is it because I should have got the first coordinate from the top and the second from the left? |

Posts: 152 Country : United Kingdom | detuned posted @ 2010-09-13 1:20 AM Some really nice puzzles in this contest - good job by the organisation, and I second the comment about opening it up to international participation! To administrator - I have a query with regards to my submitted answers that I sent by PM, although I am unsure as to whether this has sent or not. Could you check this please? Cheers, Tom |

Posts: 9 Country : United Kingdom | gramar posted @ 2010-09-13 2:33 AM I am relatively new to the world of puzzling and enjoyed this competition immensely despite the fact that I got a relatively low score (practise makes perfect) I did wonder whether I could ask to be awarded the points for the LMI Fill puzzle as I believe I correctly identified the two unused words, but somehow managed to omit the last letter of the second word when typing in the answer (it is quite obvious which word it is meant to be). Just thought it might be worth asking! Thanks |
