Completing all sudokus within time certainly gives pleasure and I don't see any reason why we cannot have 100 players submitting before time. The time-stamp will anyway separate them with ranks. 1) Lets try to replicate the same model we had in Times Sudoku Championship. 2) I'm not exactly for keeping it open for longer period. The competitiveness might die. |

How can you keep a target for everyone? We would have no clue about the skills of newcomers. And if a newcomer does not achieve her/his target, there is disappointment for the player which is exactly what we have to avoid. Like the topic start says, ratings. By newcomers I didn't necessarily mean people who're participating for the very first time. About keeping it open longer, I think we must balance competitiveness with interest in solving. So, I suggest some way of keeping the submissions and grading open for the duration of the contest even after the half an hour, unofficially, just to know if the person has solved it right.

Why should someone participate every month? is their any prize for the winner or it's just for practice ....... I hope you were not expecting any monetary prize. LMI struggles to pay for running this website itself. |

Posts: 7 Country : India | channa posted @ 2012-07-23 10:09 AM Great Initiative...Even though i used to have time to attend the contest, but sheer time that was needed to be spent in familiarising with the variants & working out the strategies prevented me from writing them. This will make things a lot easier. Perhaps, u can also continue to have the previous monthly tests but with lesser frequency (once in three months).... |

That has a different set of audience. Perhaps, u can also continue to have the previous monthly tests but with lesser frequency (once in three months).... And we expect that "beginners" start participating in monthly tests after they feel more comfortable, in due course of time. Edited by debmohanty 2012-07-23 10:14 AM |
