Another important milestone in the LMI history is the launch of sudoku and puzzle ratings which is certainly going to increase the competitive spirit in the puzzling world.

Mastermind twins is the test which still comes top of the mind, when I think of LMI tests. So, I guess the LMI test culture which was brought about in May 2010, has to be the highlight of the year.

Good point Neeraj, I missed it.

Yes, Mastermind twins introduced 2 key things at LMI tests
1) Naming a test - This is one thing that I personally like most. It is very difficult to recall what was mock16 or who wrote puzzles for mock16 for example. But it is easy to recall a test when it has a name.
2) Theme based / Related puzzles - This is something we still follow today, and may be we can follow as long as players enjoy!

I will vote for starting of monthly tests. Another I will agree with Neeraj regarding the starting of puzzles and Sudoku rating. Next one is going to different colleges for IPC and ISC 2011. Even though this event is going to be in 2011 but this was planned in 2010.
