On Rowing, my answer key was highlighted in red and I had to use the "Submit All" button for it to work. Is this normal? I was confused for a solid minute or two about what I had done wrong.

I also faced the same issue. The Instruction booklet shows the Answer Key with comma-separated co-ordinates but the submission page expects the answers the co-ordinates with no spaces or any other separators. That's what was causing the issue. I found it after experimenting with the submissions.

There are commas in the IB only to separate the multiple keys to show how they work. We never have commas in the submission page. We will remove your penalties later, other than that something to remember.

That's okay. I don't mind the penalties. My submissions with the commas were wrong anyways for one of the co-ordinates. But the red highlight definitely threw me off a bit.

Ya by remove penalties it means if we see any correct submissions with the wrong format we will resolve those.

Time Trials Part 3 IB


The Time Trials part 3 Instruction Booklet is available on the landing page. Here is a quick link - https://www.worldpuzzle.org/files/106/timetrials%20part%20three%20IB...
Note that there is a new schedule for the last 11 Time Trials. Mainly, after TT23 there is now a 12 hour gap, and everything else continues every 6 hours from there. The IB has the schedule. Also note that on the landing page, Time Trials 23-33 are currently collapsed by default and can be clicked on to expand. We will switch this with 12-22 when the 22nd one is over.

The new timings are updated on both the landing page as well as the Progress page.

The instructions for Volleyball contain a line that says "so that numbers repeat in any straight line" and also a "no repeat rule". Based on the example, I think the first phrase is the wrong one.

You are right, it is a major typo. Normal Trid rules apply and "numbers do not repeat in any straight line".
Sorry about the mistake, thank you for alerting us.

I think there may have been an oversight in the answer key for Tae Kwon Do. This may be a spoiler, though. Anyway, the booklet didn't specify to use units digits, but the answer is marked as incorrect if you put in the full digit string. I'd assume that due to this oversight, appropriate errors will be rectified and the score will reflect the original time of the "error" in the answer key. Edit: This is particularly important for people, like me, who solved using ONLY the penpa link, and didn't see the instruction that was in the puzzle but not the IB.

We understand and will accept the alternate answer key. The penalties will be manually revoked for those affected some time later. Thank you for pointing this out. Apologies for the snag.

How do we get all unshaded cells into one single contiguous region
if they are already separated into 3 separate non-contiguous regions?
Adding more shading will not eliminate the grey shading that
is already present.

The grey shading is for aesthetic purposes only. You may use some other colours to determine shaded and unshaded areas.

The unshaded cells do not need to be a single contiguous region, only the shaded cells need to be. The unshaded cells just have the shape restrictions.

I tried to solve last few Time Trial puzzles in Penpa, but there is no Undo/Redo button.
Is that intentional or is it just some problem on my side?

Penpa has a Contest Mode which prevents solvers from using the undo function, I think this was used for the later time trials.

The clone function can still be used in contest mode.
