It was nice to see some fresh faces, and get back in touch with the veterans. Rajesh had a new saintly look, Amit and Harmeet were their usual selves, Deb was in management mode, Priyanka, Zalak, Parijat were full of enthu to solve puzzles, oldmonk got a quarter of Old Monk along ... Not! :D The 20/10 Puzzle Decathlon had just the right difficulty level to keep us interested. Neither too easy, nor too hard. The mutants were nice; but I didn't attempt any of them. This looks like the right kind of atmosphere and approach to solving monthly tests.... it also ensures people from the same place start interacting and getting to know each other... Since the next monthly sudoku test is on Nov 13/14... why dont we have a similar get together in Hyderabad... All those in Hyderabad can meet up... Rishi |

Rishi Although there was not much feedback in the forum (apart from Lenson's), I had a feeling that the meeting was hugely successful. We'll definitely meet up in Bangalore again in few months' time. Couple of points from my past experience 1) We need to plan little ahead of time. Players may have some other plans. If you are planning to meet on 13/14, it is perfect to start planning now. 2) Getting players is bit difficult. Probably many players don't read these kind of topics on the forum. All the 9 players we had at Bangalore were either through email / phone. You already have 3 in Hyd (Jaipal and Neeraj being the other two). I'll send you a list of players who are believed to be in Hyd as per our old database. |
