180 mins............looks like puzzles are going to be really tough......eagerly waiting for Friday night.
Neeraj, it is not correct to assume that puzzles will be tough. Branko had decided 2 hours, but we added a .5X factor so that more players can solve. It has got nothing to do with the difficulty, it is as per our discussion in the other thread. |

Country : India | Hi Neeraj,
In Big Bands the numbers cannot be interchanged.... but they can be reversed... in the example you have a band 1614821
This can be used linearly as given or in the reverse order of 1284161.
hope this clarifies |

Your time for the mock will start after you click on "Start Mock" and you will have exactly 180 minutes to solve the mock and submit your answers.
3 hours? in one single round? : (
I think I'll not found 3 hours this weekend to do this mocktest...
Or perhaps I'll try to solve the most grids I can during 2 hours...

Fred, Branko suggested that the mock should be of 2 hours. So, you should be able to solve most (all ) grid in 2 hours.
We've made it 3 hours so that many people get a chance to solve more puzzles.
Hope you enjoy the mock as much as you did in other mocks.

Country : Serbia | Puzzles are from Serbian Sudoku Championship 2010.
Relay puzzles are one round from Champ - 45 minutes round
Mix puzzles are from final set from Champ. In the final were 16 puzzles in 2 hours. I think that 75 minutes is correct time for chosen puzzles.

Country : India | Neeraj: I got 834. Could not complete the last two sudokus even after three hours :(
Deb: Just a thought - Since individual scores are being discussed on the forum, why not as well open up the scores on a live basis instead of displaying them at 8.05 pm. This may also encourage people to score more. |
