Country : United States | I think there's a typo in B8: the 8 on the right edge should be 3+5+1 = 9.
Looks like this will be a fun test! |

In X sum sudoku: the clue is on the right puzzle at column 4. The number 8 is wrong. 9 is correct?
An updated version of IB is now available with this typo fixed. |

So, it is decided that online solving will not be available in this test.

Country : United States | Wow, lots of fun puzzles, thanks!
I'm pleased that I turned one in with about 30 seconds left on the clock in part B. I hope I got it right.
One small correction, perhaps: It seemed like several times the input instructions said "row" when they meant "column" based on what was drawn on the paper. |

Country : United States | Hm, after part A the score page seemed to load just fine but now that I'm done with part B it's all showing up blank? |

Country : United States | Now it seems like about half the time when I reload, it comes up blank, and the other half it gives me all the information as usual. (Of course, I only get to test once per hour or so.) |

As admin, I can always see the results. So didn't realize that there is a problem. |

Country : Estonia | TiiT posted @ 2012-05-13 1:28 PM I also didn't see the results page after I completed the test - table was blank. So I've no idea how many puzzles I solved correctly, and how many not. Well, I can see the results in 22-nd of May when I come back from China. Until then the excitement stays...
Puzzles were nice, except I didn't like pencilmarks so much. Probably, because I spent so much time on it:) |

Country : India | Score page is now fixed to show both parts. Please check again.
@TiiT, you have 1 incorrect in Part 2 |

Country : The Netherlands | Errabee posted @ 2012-05-14 6:43 PM Is there something wrong with the order of results when people have the same total score? E.g: hunterkok is placed 56th, I am 57th, same total score, but I used less time (for both parts), so should the order not be reversed?
Same problem for Psyho vs caudmont (16th/17th), wielki_m vs takeya (41st/42nd) and agabum vs ThomasKostolany (49th/50th). I didn't look any further down the list. |

Country : India | Congratulations to Ulrich, Jan, Kota for topping in Sudoku 8X8. This is Ulrich's best rank (among the few Sudoku tests he has played) at LMI.
Of 235 players from 33 countries, 196 players got non-zero scores. Thank you everyone for participating. I hope everyone enjoyed the 8X8 Sudokus Matus and Zuzana presented.
Rohan, Tejal and Jaipal are the top 3 Indian performers. |

I enjoyed GT consecutive and X-sums the most. Even after solving some extra practice puzzles I was not too happy with my result. That is not caused by the puzzles, but by a too short night after a very nice rock-concert on saturday evening.
Incredible performances again by the top solvers! I hardly believed what I saw when I opened the score-page...
Congratulations to all top players! |

you can not expect to make a good result ! 
Otherwise, it was an enjoyable test

I liked the idea of the X-sums sudoku very much so I have made two puzzles of this type for this weeks Friday-noon-puzzle at Logic Masters Germany. You can find them here: Easy 7x7 and Harder 9x9.
Have fun with these.
