All the best to everyone for the upcoming contest. Please participate and make it a success.
This round is dedicated to our beloved friend Shaheer Rahman who met with road accident and passed away on 23rd Feb.
Its a big loss for entire puzzle community and he left a great void. May his soul rest in peace.

I have a question: in 234 Outside also the 6x6 is following this rule? Or in case of 6x6 the numbers outside are in 2nd or 3rd position?

 What was your opinion of the distribution of easy/hard puzzles? Too many easy puzzles
 What did you think about the puzzle quality of the test? Fairly Nice
 Which set of puzzles did you like the most? Unordered Distances Sudoku
 Of the puzzles you solved/attempted, how well did the point values reflect the difficulty? Many puzzles were worth too much or too little

Whatever is given in instructions is correct...6x6 follows 234 rule. So it can come in 2nd or 3rd or 4th position.

Wonderful set of puzzles, thoroughly enjoyed solving this round!

A well-balanced round, and each puzzle in my opinion was set at the right amount of marks for difficulty.

My favourite was the unordered distances sudoku 9x9, and I also loved the 234 outside sudoku, a variant I have tried for the first time!

Thanks, Gaurav!

Too hard for the LMI community to solve this SM round without shedding a tear.
It was very nice of Gaurav and the organizers to prepare the sudokus themed on Shaheer.

Favourites: 9x9 Toroidal, 9x9 Irregular, 6x6 Toroidal

Enjoyable and a neat set of sudokus. Thanks Gaurav!

I started with the 9x9 unordered distances and spent ~20 mins on it but couldn't solve it. So, I moved to other sudokus. It was a great set. Though I couldn't solve the unoredered distances, I really enjoyed the set. Would try the unordered distances afterwards.

It was a great initiative to dedicate the round to Shaheer. Thank you Gaurav for the great set of sudokus!
