I am not able to understand the difference between:
1. The top ranked player for the particular puzzle; and
2. The best player for the particular puzzle No difference. They are the same. |

Country : India | That means 100 is the maximum score a person gets (by the person who solves fastest correctly) : 50+25+25. Am I getting it right? |

So we are coming up with a revised structure for points table as below. Do share your thoughts on this.
It looks much improved, Rakesh, thank you.
Good luck everyone, have fun! |

I would advise the LMIans to prefer the one with the solid lines as my printer had a problem with the former and completely missed printing the dotted lines in between.I would stop myself short here by saying that the Fillomino puzzle by itself is absolutely delightful and perfect!!!Good luck to all! |

Country : Greece | term posted @ 2015-03-06 7:24 PM Fillomino seems to suffer the slightest ambiguity at the very end, and not affecting the key (unless I somehow messed up): R13C2 and R13C3 contain some permutation of 20,1. |

R13C2 and R13C3 have no ambiguity. |

Country : United States | bob posted @ 2015-03-07 3:22 AM Is there anyway to give up on a puzzle once started? I am finding the Nurikabe impossible to solve logically (certainly not "easy") and trial and error is not much fun. |

Country : United States | bob posted @ 2015-03-07 4:24 AM Finally got it after a lot of erasing. I guess I'm used to Nikoli nurikabes that never seemed that hard. Need to figure out new theorems or guess better. |

Country : France | It's half-time for me (5 puzzles solved). This contest is always so interesting.
A question about the results : because of the calculation, it is not possible to have the complete score, with bonus, before the competition ends, but we could see the problems solved, the time used... Is this "the results that will be available soon ?" |
