No, the squares should be inside the grid.

Besides, I hope there are more details about how to create a crossword to make it clearer.

When is the contest ending exactly? because if that is anytime later than Midnight IST in the night from the 23th to 24th of april (in 3h20), i won't be able to submit answers after that



If that is the case, do i send an email to logicmasteradmin@gmail.com as if the website was down?

The most obvious reason would be that everyone who started this contest before the end time was extended has had a countdown clock that expired a few hours ago and for us the LMI platform says the contest is over. (When the end of the contest was extended, the submission deadlines for those who had already started the contest did not get extended).
(As for myself I don't care because I finished everything I wanted to do, assuming no further surprises about previously unexplained rules that change the nature of any puzzles).-- Denis

Oof I genuinely missed that the countdown clock and the end time setting are differently coded for this contest. We will try to reset it but yes we will accept submissions via email for now. Thanks for pointing this out.

Puzzle 11

Scores 5,11,14 are miscalculated
I can't find a unique solution for the 22 score.
No unique solution either for the submission with * scoring 21 (and there are only 5 * around the 6 in the lower right corner)

It's quite fun to solve manually the best submissions , some of them are very elegant ! 👏👏

There were errors in some of the answers.
I also enjoyed solving the Minesweeper puzzles.
Preliminary results have been published.

Thank you Riad for what was a very nice (and challenging) contest as usual.

And sorry I wrote some grumpy messages about unclear rules for the optimizer puzzles, it was frustrating in the moment but in retrospect it wasn't such a big deal.

Thanks for the beautiful contest & congrats do Denis for the victory and everyone else on their efforts as well!



Moreover, I unfortunately submitted column 3 instead of 4 on accident for Navigation, but I have a downloaded image (with time stamp within contest time) of the correct solution that I took from Penpa after finishing the puzzle there, is there a way for me to claim those 6 points, Riad? Or is it just unfortunate?

Oh, and I also just noticed that I got no points for my submission of score 26 to "Sapper Way", which should net me 6 points just like Barbitos, Lemesh, leoranger and L00ping007. I just checked my submission in the file of "Optimizer Solutions" and I did send in the correct one, no typo here (others can verify).

Thanks in advance for looking into this ❤️

I have noted that you received 6 points. I now understand that these points are awarded to Leoranger. not Leonardo. We'll fix everything.
