It seems that the final answer of Fence in the IB is wrong? I think "113,212" is true.
Looks like the booklet has been corrected. |

Country : India | Mistake in Puzzle Booklet
One of the puzzles (Star Battle Instructionless - 2) has something missing in it making it wrong. We request participants to wait for an announcement that it is fixed before starting the contest.

Nice set. Loved both the instructionless puzzles.
I wasted time solving the Star Battle instructionless example :-| (realized only towards the end that it is not the actual puzzle )
Very stupid of me, but the grid is so big! (compared to the Shikaku instructionless )
Thanks Rob!

Very nice puzzles. Of course, easy because it's Puzzle Ramayan, but still nice. The Shikaku variant is a good twist, because I expected Knapp-Daeben (off by one ) Shikaku. Answer keys were not very perfect (see: Shikaku having inverted letters; also, answer key for one puzzle, Spiral Galaxies I think, asked for rows C/D/E but there were E/F/G in the puzzle ). But not a very big deal. |

Country : France | auroux posted @ 2017-01-27 10:04 PM ARGH! I downloaded the instruction booklet and looked at the forum after the test started but before the correction was posted... and lost 5 minutes redoing that star battle puzzle over and over again before counting and realizing it had to be wrong. :( Probably would have finished otherwise... |

Had so many break in's. Wasted time in fixing some of them. Could have completed the test. Short of 3 min. Fantastic set of puzzles with nice logic. Thanks LMI and Robert for wonderful test. |

Somehow some grids got a bit deformed, had to correct by hand before starting to solve. A bit annoying and 1-2 min lost spent with checking from the display. |
