Posts: 460 Country : India | purifire posted @ 2010-11-16 1:20 PM In Hyderabad, all solvers got together to solve it. It was really nice meeting other solvers and discussing strategies post the test. The Venue was Euro School (run by Jaipal ). Best part was we had 9 new people participating.. 7 school children and 2 teachers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Before we got to the test and while we were waiting for other solvers, we had a nice interactive session wit hthe school children and teachers where we discussed the variants and how we can solve them. The enthusiasm shown by the kids was really great to see.... Neeraj, Jaipal and I spent some time with the kids and they loved it.... Post the tst we all sat down and discussed how each one of us went through the puzzles and the approach adopted. The school management was happy with the interaction and so were some of the parents who had come with the kids... We are planning to have more sessions with the school kids and are working out details how to improve their interest in the game and make them solve more... Thanks to Jaipal for arranging it and the lovely lunch... Rishi |

It was a mighty effort from them, keeping in mind that they were looking at variations for the first time ever.... With regular practice I am sure they will climb the results ladder.

The kids understood the concepts very well too and hence majority attempted it. |
