Great puzzles, I enjoyed all of the ones that I had time for. It did seem like the XO type was over-represented though, with 1/3 of the puzzles being variations of this type. That said, some of the variations were really interesting, I especially enjoyed the XII puzzle.

Hello, I have written the answers for question 6 but have forgotten to click the 'submit' button !It is clear from the timing that it is not a last second submission. So is it possible to correct my total points accordingly ?

Whoops, doing this right after I wake up might not be a very good idea, with a slow start...

The obvious complaint is that there are too many XO puzzles and variations (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12). There could have been a better spread of puzzles. The puzzles themselves were nice; nothing particularly memorable though.

"Mostly perfect" answer keys instead of perfect because Interstellar Route has an awful answer key. Would be better with "lengths of loop segments in row", "column number of black cells", or "letters visited in order", something like that. While I didn't solve it, Build a Circular Maze also looked to have a pretty awkward answer key.

Otherwise, pretty enjoyable; at least it's a puzzle test. Not the best, but still good enough.

Thanks, that was a lot of fun! It's true that there were a lot of no-four-in-a-row puzzles, but while I don't particularly care for the base type, I really enjoyed them here.

Thanks for the puzzles Riad.
It was interesting to figure out new rules for the OX, COOLLL types as you go along.

One of the rounds of the Moscow Cup I called LOXIC. I have included in this round a new variations of XO. Puzzle XII was specifically invented to the 12 Cup.

Thanks to all the participants.
I congratulate with the victory Hideaki, Nikola and Michael!

I really enjoyed this. The XO with regions was a very satisfying solve, as was the build a maze. Thanks!
