On Max Turns, A=2, B=1, C=5, D=3. Do you how a laserbeam works with mirrors?

Also,while taking the demo,I found the progress meter in green at the top showing how the time is being eaten very irritating and distracting.I would trust my eyes to look at the corner of the screen rather than some other factor indicating to me that my time is going down......

Based on previous ST's feedback, the small little digits in the corner is 'too subtle', and players liked the idea of a bar (so that they know how soon the time will end from the corner of an eye). Not sure which is better, we will try out the green bar this time.
Actually, lets hear from few others. If some more players feel the previous slider was better than the current bar, we can revert back.

Thanks a lot Rohan for the clarification and Deb for the image . I understand now the rules of it.As regards time,if the green meter is tried out this year ,I only hope that I somehow manage to mentally shut it down during the test......

Looking forward to ST5 !

I prefer the progress bar. The countdown timer in the corner is easy to miss.

For Max Shapes, S appears 10 times and T appears 6 times. Remember, the shapes can be rotated/reflected.

For Mines, there can be a mine on any cell which doesn't have a clue. The numbers outside the grid are the answer options, nothing to do with the puzzle :-)

Clarifying rules of "Max Tiles"

It seems the rules for "Tiles" is not clear to some players.
Please note that
1) the Tile can appear anywhere in the right side grid. See updated example below.
2) It is not like domino where [3 4] is same as [4 3].

We have updated the example.



The answer to this is D (Tile 43)
Tile A (12) appears 3 times in the grid, Tile B (23) appears 3 times, Tile C (34) appears 2 times in the grid, and Tile D (43) appears 4 times in the grid.

About "Max Shapes"

It should be clear from the grid and example, but following line is missing from the instructions "Black cells can not used while placing the shapes."

Details about Penalty structure

There is no penalty if you Skip a Puzzle.
Otherwise, minimum penalty for getting a puzzle incorrect = 25.
Additionally, you get more penalties depending upon how many other players submit the same or other wrong answers.
Example :
Lets say a puzzle has 4 options.
Option 1) Correct Answer
Option 2) submitted by x number of players
Option 3) submitted by y number of players
Option 4) submitted by z number of players
Lets have P = max(x,y,z)
Total penalty for players submitting Option 2) = 25 + 25 * ( P - x ) / P
Total penalty for players submitting Option 3) = 25 + 25 * ( P - y ) / P
Total penalty for players submitting Option 4) = 25 + 25 * ( P - z ) / P

So, the higher is the difference between 'most incorrect' and 'your incorrect', higher is the penalty.

Also note that, if you select the answer and keep, but didn't click on Next Puzzle.
Then it will get automatically submitted once the time is over. So don't select any option unless you are sure about it. Of course not in the case when you want to try your luck of guessing ;)

You are right. Feedback page was hanging in Google Chrome in Win8/Win10.
This is fixed now.
