Thanks a lot Akash for a tremendous set of sudokus.The solve paths were super fun and highly challenging. I am totally disappointed with my own performance though. After getting the higher pointers in a fairly decent time, the test got ruined more or less becuase of a single sudoku (Diagonal Skyscrapers). I totally missed the intended solve path and messed it up completely. Lost about 20 minutes in the process without finishing it and to add to that frustration, the timer ran out when I was entering the answer key of Killer Pair. So what could have been an 800+ score turned sub-par.

Also, I felt that 90 minutes was of a lesser duration for getting through so many hard sudokus.Nevertheless, I relished the contest and hope to find the logic in the ones that I guessed.

Coming off from the SM's I totally under estimated this test and decided to work from the back.
Boy was I hustling in the last 30 minutes. A very nice change from the mellow SM's.
Special kudos to the Liar Sudoku - a beautiful grid indeed. Thermo felt a bit bashy for me - don't know what I missed.

Thanks Akash for the nice puzzles.
Also, when can we expect some ratings update? It's been a year or so now.

Those sudoku were very hard, in my opinion; I would have appreciated an extra 30 minutes to work on them -- as it was I only got through about half the test. However, they were all enjoyable and well-made! Thanks, Akash!

Thanks, Akash for this brilliant set of Sudoku puzzles. Every puzzle has a very good logical path. Enjoyed every puzzle while solving it offline or during the test.
Once again thanks for this Sudoku test.
I agree with the earlier feedback that ratings can be updated now. It has been more than a year now when the LMI rating was last updated.
