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.
Thank you. Made it just in time. Well done. |

This goes to show that not all easy puzzles are boring.
A lovely introduction to these types where a lot of existing puzzles written could be impossibly difficuly for newer solvers.
Thanks! |

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. |

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
