Thank you for this wonderful test !

Grids were very nice, I really enjoy to solve them. It was the second tournament of the day for me (after french prequalifs), and I'm happy to see that I can be competitive during 4 hours in a day. (certainly an important thing for competitions like WSC, where I haven't any experience).
Regarding LMI tests, I was impatient to find again a place in the top 10 on a test. As I was tester in January and Author in March, I had only the awful result of February test...

About grids: extraregions, consecutive, outside, inequality, irregular and killer enjoyed me particularly, as they were so nice and well constructed. All grids were good. The Product Frame was very tough, I have to redo it, because I couldn't solve it without a guess (of course it was wrong 1rst time, I think I spent something like 20-25 on that grid in total).

It's good to see that Janoslaw is back ! 4 times world champions taked logically the first two places. Thomas had a comfortable +11 minutes advance. Behind them (-> Human people ) , it was very tight between Nikola, Kota, Michael and Hideaki: only 1 minutes 39 separates these very good players.

Thanks again, I have so much pleasure to compete on LMI !

Fred

Hey Fred, you missed about some more good players: Minfang Lin, Rohan Rao, Fred Stalder and Sinchai R, who also completed the set (in a more humanly time ;-) )

You are right, these players are good
