sorry to hear that.
may be 2 things would have helped you
1. solving the the types which are new to you individually from other mocks (for example mock12)
2. solving the example puzzles

Thanks Deb and Amit. This was undoubtedly THE best contest at LMI, in terms of the puzzle quality. The idea of Mastermind twins had turned out to be a masterstroke. Also, glad to see the high participation - my guess of 90 was fairly close (as the results show 92 participants - including Deb and Amit).

Thanks for giving me the possibility to play earlier. I made a lot of mistakes on this test. A lot of french players could not play, because we had a meeting this weekend and we prefer drink beer than play sudoku

However, congrats to ours brun, calista and valsudo who try to do the test during this meeting !

Deb, excellent puzzles! Classic sudoku for me was the hardest, I spent more than 20 minutes only to him. Congratulations to Jason and Branko.

Deb,

The beautiful instruction booklet persuaded me that this was going to be the best online Sudoku competition to date and I wasn't disappointed. Really enjoyed solving all the puzzles. Found the anti-knight and touchy very hard but the consecutive easier than expected. Made a stupid mistake on Trio with a couple of minutes left. Congratulations to Jason, Nikola and Branko but especially congratulations to yourself. Worth getting up at 5.40am for.

David McNeill.
