Posts: 87 Country : India | harmeet posted @ 2020-02-27 6:19 PM Thanks to LMI for giving an opportunity to Pranav and me to author PR2. Thanks to Rakesh for guiding, test solving and overseeing many other things in the background. Congrats to the podium finishers. There were 21 solvers (across 8 countries) who finished all puzzles in time. The test got inclined towards the hard side and general feedback reflects the same. We take constructive feedback of choosing variety in puzzle types. It is a learning curve for us and we see an opportunity in improving the balance of the test for wide spectrum of puzzle solvers. Special mention of Pranav as he came up with an amazing set of puzzles. It never looked like he was authoring for the first time. | ||||||||||||||||||

Posts: 55 Country : India | pranavmanu posted @ 2020-02-27 8:10 PM Congratulations to Endo Ken, Kota Morinishi and Hideaki Jo for completing the all Japanese Podium, and congratulations to Prasanna, Rohan and Ashish for finishing in the top 3 among Indians. It was a test on the harder side going by the feedback. The lack of puzzle type variety is a quite valid criticism, and we shall keep it in mind for future rounds. It was a nice experience to author PR (for the first time). Thank you to Harmeet and Rakesh for helping me with puzzle ideas, test solving and their general insights! It was fantastic to see the solve path and general smoothness of Harmeet's creations as I test solved, and its something i will try to incorporate into my creations as well! Looking forward to the next round! |
