Posts: 1801 Country : India | prasanna16391 posted @ 2023-03-19 10:04 AM SakshamBoora - 2023-03-19 5:19 AM Hey what does this "Pen" in the score table mean? And how can one get bonus points? Pen means penalty, if you have a wrong submission and then submit the same puzzle correct later you'll get a penalty. Look in the Instruction Booklet for a breakdown of this. There is a bonus of 1 point per minute saved if you finish all 22 puzzles before the 60 minutes. This is also in the instruction booklet, I suggest that anyone with questions look through it once, especially the starting pages. |

Posts: 15 Country : United Kingdom | pinkagape posted @ 2023-03-20 10:34 AM As I say, I'm not deliberately guessing, I just get to a broken point. I think this is the last common point before I start trying different things, so I reckon something is wrong by this point. http://fuchsia.parallelepiped.co.uk/PentopiaPicture.PNG |
