The GP Playoffs in China were nice. It didn't involve actually seeing the players solve but Tom and Byron were giving commentary on the developments. This is easy enough to set up with headphones for the solvers, and less invasive than cams on heads I think.

Check with Thomas/Wei-Hwa how they did the playoffs in 2010. The finalists wore headsets, while Thomas was giving commentary on a mike in front of them.

The players said they couldn't hear a thing.

Yea I think Tom's best idea is generally to copy what Thomas does :P We are both talking about the same thing though.

One idea for the evening events in WSC/WPC 2016 is to give one puzzle round and one Sudoku round from LMI in which interested participants can participate. We can even give the trophies to the winners during official prize ceremony and welcome them all to India for next year.

Just want to make sure that I understand - so this suggestion is for WSC/WPC 2016 in Slovakia.
Not in India, right?

Yes, this is for Slovakia. We can welcome participants starting in Slovakia with some India events in the extra time there :)

Another idea for Extra Event is that some slots we can keep it for our sponsors e.g. If one of our sponsor is in gaming industry, we can create gaming event related to our sponsor :)
