Great puzzles with a good balance of difficulty. I had a smooth run until I hit Windows (7) and Border Nurikabe (12).These 2 ate up a sizeable chunk of my time.In the end, I was just extremely lucky to submit the 12 pointer at exactly the last second !! Thanks Swaroop for a nice puzzle set.Favourites are Nurikabe and Myopia. | ||||||||||||||||||

Posts: 170 Country : Germany | rob posted @ 2020-03-23 10:21 PM Thanks Swaroop, this felt like a perfect PR round to me. Easy puzzles (but, honestly, not *that* easy to solve rigorously, so very much appropriate for a contest targetted towards less experienced solvers. Thanks a lot! I feel lucky for the instant grading, since my one mistake was a real mistake (I'd let some transparent yajilin clues unused by the loop) and not just an input error. | ||||||||||||||||||

A very nice set. I was afraid of trio cuts eating my time, happily I got them fast enough. 12-pointer Border Nurikabe was pretty fun but maybe overvalued, after some initial progress I was convinced that the regions will mostly be "outlined" by borders (especially the 9) so it worked quicker than expected. My favorites are the large classic yajilin and the transparents. Thanks for the puzzles! Stay safe everyone. | ||||||||||||||||||

I really loved the puzzles, enjoyed solving Nurikabe and its variant. Hope that our friend Shaheer rests in peace. | ||||||||||||||||||

Nice, although easier than other PR rounds so far in my opinion. The puzzle quality was great, so I can't complain much! Edited by mstang 2020-03-26 1:08 AM | ||||||||||||||||||
