Submission Link: http://logicmastersindia.com/2015/11S/
Contest Duration: 4th to 6th November

Since this is a fun test, we've decided not to have a contest duration. This is to encourage all players to complete the round and get a sense of satisfaction.

Your timer will start when you begin the test and end when you submit all sudokus correctly. Instant Grading is enabled for this test and each incorrect submission will be penalized by 2 minutes. There is no bonus. The score page will be sorted by Submission time, including penalty time, if any.

Hope to see many of you find time to have a crack at this.

Score Page

You can check out live results on the score page: http://logicmastersindia.com/2015/11S/score.asp

You can view the score page at any time, so this will give you an idea of how long you would take, or you can use this to target some players to beat :-)

Good Luck!

Why is my answer wrong even when the rules are satisfied?

Your submitted answer is wrong.

You need to realize that there are 4 Sudokus and they need to be solved simultaneously. You can't solve just one Sudoku independently. Please check the rules again; if anything is not clear, please ask here.

Thank you for sharing this puzzle with the rest of the world. It was very enjoyable and I think there might be merit in running other fun contests like this.

With no more participants at this time, X-Killer contest is over. Solutions have been appended to puzzle booklet.

Thank you everyone for participating, I was not really expecting 150+ players having a go at the puzzle during weekdays. So David has a point - we should explore possibility of more fun contests.

Congratulations to Kwaka, David, Yuhei for the top 3 positions. While he has come up 2nd few times, this is Kwaka's first win at LMI. David and Yuhei are in the top 3 after a while.

I hope everyone enjoyed the puzzle.
