Is there any participants photos from Delhi round as in Mumbai round.

Check out the link given earlier for Delhi.

Thank you for the suggestion!! :) Will try to implement it

Agree. Plus, the Mumbai article keeps referring to Amit in plural for some reason. He is either 'Puzzle creators' or 'Puzzle partners'. At least Deb is 'from puzzle partners'

Detailed scores for Mumbai round held on 12th July are now available. The scores for other City rounds will also be updated here.

Which sudokus were there in variants in Delhi and Mumbai's city round?

6 classics , even Sudoku and diagonal Sudoku to be solved in 1 hour

Thank you very much for the detailed results. Had participated in the Mumbai round after 3 years...good to know that I finished in the top 10. Would practice the next time to make it better....:)

I see this said a lot, I just want to note something. Most of the top solvers practice throughout the year. There are contests which are very accessible using the LMI Monthly Contest - http://logicmastersindia.com/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=60&st... page or the downloads pages http://logicmastersindia.com/lmitests/downloads.asp?testType=10 which all have archived PDFs of contests with all the details you need to test yourself on them. There are links given on this page to other sites too - http://logicmastersindia.com/home/?g=links .

So there is an abundance of content to practice and there are contests like the GP and Mahabharat which run throughout the year. People ask me a lot about how long I practice - the answer is I rarely ever solve a Sudoku outside of competition(I count the dailies as competition)/testing. Even when I was starting out the only Sudoku I have practiced at length is Killer. But I gave time to participating in all the contests I could.

As the current Times Champion (at least until 2nd August ), I feel I should post something like this - if you just missed the top rankings and you just solved ToI's Sudokus or practiced for a month (or so) in preparation, then you clearly have talent because, even with that level of preparation you are near solvers who are participating in contests throughout the year. Imagine where you could be with that kind of participation (which only takes a 90 minute stretch on a weekend typically).

This isn't for the one who I quoted in particular, it is a general note for anyone who barely misses out on the regional rounds. Even to The other solvers, you may have the potential and just not know it and in general these contests are free and fun, so its a win-win situation.

Congrats to the Chennai top 3

1. Rakesh Rai
2. Kishore Kumar
3. Pranav Kamesh

Congrats to the top 3 from Chennai , especially Pranav. Great achievement.

Congrats to all 3! Well done Pranav.

I was so happy that none of the top three made mistakes. Congratulations again.

Congrats to all 3 :) Best of luck for finals.

Detailed scores for Delhi round held on 12th July are also available now.

So I became "plural" this time in Chennai - http://epaperbeta.timesofindia.com/Article.aspx?eid=31807&articlexm...
Quite possibly, the text was copied from Mumbai edition.

and I was made to float in "seventh heaven" when I am having a hard time remembering if I had ever uttered those words anytime in my lifetime let alone during the TSC event....

Congrats to the winners. Best of luck for Finals

I wish the Delhi Reporter travel to each part to cover the event, at least the interview part.

I still feel, if they are gonna misquote you anyway, the least they could do is go with "cloud nine" and keep the Sudoku theme. Seventh Heaven seems so random.

All the best to all Bangalore participants. :-)

Top 5 in Bangalore

1. Jayant Ameta (22:08)
2. Gaurav Kumar Jain (29:18)
3. Rajesh Kumar (30:49)
4. Ramya Reddy V (31:14)
5. Zalak Ghetia (32:38)

Based on the rules set this year (with maximum one experienced player per city), Jayant, Gaurav and Ramya proceed to the finals.

Congratulations everyone.

Overall results?
