Country : India | Online Solving EnabledWe have now enabled online solving of all the examples. Check the submission page for details.
As noted earlier, the flash online solving will only allow you to mark / unmark 1-9 on the grids. There is no feature to mark anything else.
For Braille Sudoku, the left grid is disabled, and you can solve only on the right grid.
Based on previous LMI tests, we think most players will solve on paper and not use the online solving interface. However, if you are one of those who plan to use online solving, you must practice solving as many examples as you can using the online interface. And if you are already familiar with the flash interface, you should still check it out because the layout of the sudokus is different (and hopefully more friendly ) than previous tests.

I will be on holiday during the competition and if I want to participate I have to solve it online because I am not able to print the sudokus. Can anybody give me some hints for the online solving? How do you erase one number of the pencil marks? |

Country : Czech Republic | Nicky posted @ 2013-02-08 12:10 AM Zalak, in this position you should already know which 6 numbers (out of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) are used in this sudoku 6x6. Have a look at the first row (there are 3 clear numbers - 7, 6 and 9). And then 5th rectangle (there is a quartet 4, 5, 7 and 8). Thus you know that you work only with these numbers in the whole sudoku and some your pencilmarks are needed to be erased :-) |

Does the each digit outside the grid show the ONLY clue(outside or skyscraper)? Mustn't the each digit match BOTH clues? |

Country : France | Hi Kota,
Each clue must fulfill at least one of the rules. It may be that it fullfills both, but there is no obligation. Anyway, you don't need to worry about that anymore since this puzzle has been removed in the last version of the IB.  |

Country : India | Clarification on Odd Even FrameOutside/Skyscraper is out, but the same rule applies for Odd Even Frame as well. That is, each clue must fulfill at least one of the sums. It may fulfill both, but there is no obligation.
For example, if 4 is the clue outside, the first 3 digits could be 1,3,4 in any order.
This has been clarified earlier.

I am not able to completely understand rules of "Linked Classics". Can someone please explain it.
There are 2 grids. The solution of the 2 grids are same, except that some rows have changed their positions.
If you look at solution of the example, R3 of left grid is same as R5 of right grid. Similarly R6 of left grid is same as R4 of right grid.
See image below.
Is it clear now?

Country : Estonia | TiiT posted @ 2013-02-09 4:17 PM It was brilliant test until I got to Odd Even Big Small. I mean, why are you not describing the puzzle in a booklet? I still don't know, how to solve it. Do you except us to find out which symbol is which? Or is there other classification for these symbols? That is different puzzle as in booklet! You should have said in instructions_booklet that you must figure the symbols out by yourselves or describe the other symbols. I think that the one puzzle ruined the beautiful test - everything else was nice. |
