Thanks for the great set of puzzles David. The solving path was seamless in the puzzles I attempted. Personally, back to solving puzzles after a brief period of 2-3 months and it was a great experience for me attempting the puzzles. Hope to be active in the upcoming contests.

That was fun :)
Thanks David, some very interesting new variants here.

10 minutes witin the time I finished classic-2 sudoku and tried to submit, but the submit button was not enabled.

Deb has invited me to make some comments on the contest. I think it is appropriate to thank Deb for being so willing to host this and the variety of other competitions that LMI encourages. I'd also like to thank my test solvers - Tom Collyer, Robert Vollmert and Yuhei Kusui. They helped me to improve the classic puzzles and keep the difficulty of some of the later puzzles in check.

Thank you to the LMI puzzle community for turning up (especially after my last contest proved so long and difficult). There were difficult puzzles in this set as well but I was delighted to see so many different puzzles receive your accolades for favourite puzzle. Hopefully, not just the best of a bad bunch! My personal favourite was the second Thropki, so I couldn't resist including two of those. I was surprised to find that the Outside Sums was so popular. I know that it didn't require too many pencil marks, so maybe that was the reason.

Congratulations to the intrepid 10 who finished the lot and particularly Hideaki, Tiit and Kota for making the podium places.

Now I can get back to solving for a while.

Hello! Please, I'd like to print this contest in order to have a look at these puzzles and trying to solve, but the .pdf file is still password protected.... Can anyone help? Thanks in advance for your help, regards!
