Hm, seems like I need some new glasses. When I started the test, somehow I was sure that it was not considered a monthly test and also couldnt find the "Opt out"-checkbox to not consider it for the puzzle rating. Dont know if I would have started it with that in mind, because I was not prepared at all and just had to fill some spare time. Anyway, all went good, so it doesnt matter.

Nice puzzles, and Im also looking forward to the solution booklet this time, because my solution of the big Akari seems to be non-unique. (Row 8, either column 9 or 10 contains a light bulb).

So as promised, there is now a solution booklet available. Personally I like to read about authors' views and all too, so for anyone who likes that, there is my own thoughts about each set of puzzles at the bottom of the page.

That was a mistake on my part. I forgot to un-hide the "check box".

If you have solved it correctly, you will find that it needs to be placed in column 9 to illuminate R6C9. If that cell doesn't need to be illuminated, check if all other cells on that right side are illuminated.

Nevermind, found a region with two bulbs in my "solution".

Congrats Swaroop.

Thank you for some brilliant puzzles. The difficulty level is just perfect. I have been solving a puzzle a day for the last week, and I am now though the set. I enjoyed every single puzzle and was able to solve them after some tense analysis. Thank you!

Great, I'm glad you enjoyed them throughout the week of solving :)

Would it be possible for an admin to add the password for the Puzzle Booklet to the test page? Thanks!
