You won No Numbers, and now Guess The Author. You're on a roll!

Not just LMI tests. There's really something thats gone horrible wrong with me recently.

Sirs,
It was a pleasure participating in the NPC 12 . Congratulations on conducting it so very smoothly and glitch free !
I stood at 108 rank ( not sure what rank among indians ). While I have been participating in the WPC online every year - would it be possible for me to attend the next WPC - Croatia ( at my own expense ) but as a standby ( or some other way ) part of TEAM INDIA ?

Coming to the puzzles, there were some really good quality ones there. I loved the Borders one most, but then I'm biased towards Tapa. I made a marking error in Colored Star Battle due to the double set of markings required, but its still easily one of my favorites in the set. I loved the way the F Pentominos worked. A lot of the puzzles I just rushed through in 30-40 seconds like Masyu and Tapa, so couldn't fully appreciate them in the competition scenario. Liar Slitherlink was another I really liked with the full grid being used to give a nice solving path.

I made an error on every single Number/letter entry puzzle other than Classic Kakuro and Classic Sudoku, but I still liked the Gapped Kakuro best amongst these.

My favorite 5 would be :
Borders, Colored Star Battle, Liar Slitherlink, Gapped Kakuro, Graffiti Snake/Snake(can't make up my mind on that one :P )

Thanks to all the organizers, authors, test solvers. I really enjoyed this one, and its my first break-into the top 4 in an Indian Championship so I've finally managed to convince myself to be happy about it :P

You can definitely participate as an "unofficial". This depends on how many slots are remaining for unofficials as per limitations of the hosts I think. Your ranking won't be counted in any of the official score cards, and I don't think you can be part of Team India. I was unofficial last year and made my own "United Nations" team just for participating. While we weren't counted in official rankings, we got the lowest possible score and enjoyed every bit of it.
