Hi Organisers,

I am very eager to participate in ISC 2011. The regional rounds for ISC 2011 is not conducted in TN, but for IPC 2011 it is going to held in IIT-Madras. Why regional rounds for ISC2011 is not conducted in Tamil Nadu?

There was mistake in our part. The regional round ISC 2011 is scheduled at IIT Madras. We've updated the schedule.

Note that IPC 2011 is not scheduled at IIT Madras.

HI,

If I am not mistaken the top 4 will be selected to represent India at the World Sudoku Championship. If that is the case, then we should be selecting the top 4 from every round. Suppose the top 3 from one of the regions end up being the top3 nationally, then we who knows the person who stood fourth from the same region could have been the fourth person nationally as well. Of course, this sort of scenario is quite unlikely, but if we do not follow logical processes then who will :)

Cheers,
Munira.

Hi Munira,
The number of players to represent India (or any other country) at WSC is decided by the host country - which is Hungary this year. They've not yet decided whether it is 3 players from a country or 4.
Based on our understanding from them, it is likely to be a 3 member team since this year World Sudoku Championship and World Puzzle Championship will be held together (not on the same dates, but within the same week and same venue)

Are you going to open the Practice test to international participants? Could it be open for the entire weekend after the ISC Practice test is closed as it was the case the last year? Thanks, Radek

Hi Radek,
We'll have it open for 24 hours after the Practice Test ends.
Note that, as mentioned in the ISC page, this is just for practice and the puzzles / sudokus will be relatively easy (compared to LMI monthly tests)

In any case, your submissions should have been recorded.
