The puzzles were very nice, although unusually I found there were a lot of medium difficulty puzzles, and not too many very easy (useful for filling time at the end) or very hard puzzles (useful for getting big points!).

Well done to the puzzles I solved. Like quite a few people, I was surprised that the OEBS Sudoku had symbols as opposed to the actual words. I was also quite surprised by the lack of given numbers in Thermo Sudoku. Finally, I spotted the breakin in the Diagonal Sudoku (with the 3s) about 5 minutes too late, leading to myself running out of time.

For odd even big small, the example in the instruction booklet doesn't have the twist of the unknown symbols. I checked the booklet, if there is a problem of printing. Then, I saw the rule. Anyway, it was one of the good puzzles in the test.

I didn't see the symbols for the odd, even, big, small puzzle either. Were we supposed to figure out which symbol goes with rule?

I was perfectly fine with the Odd Even Big Small surprise factor. I agree with the people saying surprises are part of puzzling. However, I did manage to make a mistake late on in this one. I also seem to have made a mistake in Renban late into the solve, so, not at all a good time of it for me. The quality of the puzzles was superb though and I thoroughly enjoyed the test (still have 2-3 left to solve). The only bad part of my solving experience, not related to my own goofing up of everything, is that there weren't that many easy grids to leave to quickly finish off at the end. But then I realize, I started with the classics so thats partly my fault too. I ended up jumping from grid to grid not getting much and had to settle for the Braille in the last 10 minutes or so.

My favorite was the Thermometer, but I have many other favorites from here.
