The test was overall fine. I thought the True or Lie formatting was bad, though, because the given clues overlapped the place where a 1 pencil mark would go when solving online. I skipped the 9x9 puzzle mainly for this reason. |

Thanks for the feedback.
Yes. There is partial overlap but we think it does not impact solving. Perhaps we could have used a lighter font for the True or Lie clues. |

Very nice set. Top quality sudokus. Felt the difficulty is too hard for SM. Favourite puzzles: Quadro 9x9, 2Odd2Even 9x9, True Or Lie 6x6 Thanks Ashish and Kishore! |

Excellent Set of Sudokus. Loved the 2Odd 2Even Sudoku, Although I solved it after the test. It was a wonderful test. Thanks LMI. Thanks Kishore and Ashish. Agree to Rohan, difficulty is on higher side for SM, so beginners might have some tough time. |

Great quality of Sudokus, really enjoyed the variants. But had a bad day and broke a lot of them, even some 6*6 ones. Thanks for the great Sudokus Ashish and Kishore! |

Infact its getting worse with each round. But I guess this is required at this level of competition. So Great job done Ashish and Kishore.

After a bad performance in the 1st round I had targeted to perform well in this round. But couldn't perform as well. I lost a lot of time in the classics and the 9*9 2 Odd 2 Even. At the end I couldn't solve the 2 Odd 2 Even. Overall a good set of sudokus. I specially liked the Coded Sudokus. Thanks Kumars for the sudokus :p |

great set of sudokus. thankfuly i had no mistakes in this round. in my opinion i found true or lie and coded sudoku easy, finshed 9x9 for both of them in 10 mins combined. had already decided to go for the hghest pointer 2 odd 2 even first and thankfully it worked for me. i felt that quadro should've been given more points compared to true or lie and coded sudoku. overall i am glad that i finished the whole set within time |

   Country : Thailand | tamz29 posted @ 2019-02-10 4:38 PM Nice test but rather difficult. Even the Classics were hard.
I basically give up an hour fumbling hopelessly so it was a surprise to see other people found it just as hard.
I thought Coded 2 was too guess-y and the 2O2E was beautifully made. |

Thanks for this amazing set. I really enjoyed quadro and coded during the contest, and 2 odd 2 even offline. Edited by harmeet 2019-02-10 5:20 PM
