Nice+puzzles.+Thanks+for+the+mind+blowing+experience.%f0%9f%98%87

Given how rarely monthly sudoku contests apart from SM occur of late, it is really refreshing to see them making a comeback with the New Year contest
Sudokus were all very hard but I had great fun and plan to give them a deeper look in the coming days.
Tremendous job by Tyler Chen for creating amazing sudokus and thanks to LMI for hosting the contest !

The Sudoku-wise points have been updated on the score page. We haven't yet added the points for solving at least one Samurai grid. This will be done soon.

Scores are now final.
