6.5 hours more before the mock test ends. Those who have not started the test, please do so before 18:00 IST (12:30 GMT).

Thanks to Rohan, Tejal for organizing this Mock test. I could solve only 5 Sudoku in the given time. Nice Sudokus.

Hi Deb,
I gave the mock today. It went terrible. But I was amazed to see that the site would not let me login with another username once I have given the test. Moreover, it freezes the username in other browsers too. Even after clearing the browser history, temp files, cookies and everything, its freezed.I would like to know, how did you do this. Because, my ip address is always dynamic and changes each and every time i connect to the internet.I have never witnessed anything like this.

(If someone gives the mock thru a cyber cafe and lateron another guy comes to the same cafe and connects thru the same pc, then..........)

HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? Please reply

Don't get me wrong, when I said, it doesn't let me login using another username. I just want to say that the username is freezed.

Thank You Rajesh
Nice to have you back in the sudoku world ;-)

Results will be out in 1 hour...

Rohan/Tejal.

Thank you for participating in Mock 13. Hope you enjoyed the Sudokus,
though the Sudokus were little tough. You can view the score at

Please take few moments to rate the Sudokus, if you have not done so yet.

Hope to see you all participate in the next mock on 28th Feb, 2010.

Aditya, check your mailbox

Unfortunately I couldn't participate to Mock Test 13 but I will print the puzzles and try them anyway. It seems that they were pretty tough, and pretty nice too. Let's see !

I finally had time to finish grids of the 13th mocktest. Grids were beautiful and hard. During the test, I managed 4 grids: even product frame, consecutive sum frame, Outside antiknight and Sequences equal sum. I made stupid mistakes on end of odd even no touch and extra-region quadro.

I made other grids this week. I found non-consecutive numeral, odd multiplication table and irregular kropki very tough, perhaps more difficult than surprise and sequences equal sum, which brought yet more points...

I found that grids of the booklet were a little too easy compared to the grid test.

Otherwise, I congratulate Rohan and Tejal for these fine grids.

Fred

Thanks Fred, I really appreciate your comments.
After all the feedback we've received, Tejal and I agree that Odd Multiplication Table was tough and deserved more points. Irregular Kropki is a 3 minute puzzle once you get the opening, so I think that was OK. Non-Consecutive Numeral needed a little trial and error too.
IB puzzles were VERY VERY EASY :D, we made it in a hurry, so you're right on that aspect. (Maybe thats why you earlier commented that 10 sudokus in 2hrs shouldn't be a problem ;-) )
