That was a lot of fun! I thought the layout of the odd sudoku was very cute, and the renban was a lot of clever logic. The quad sum had a great layout too. The odd even frame fit together really well too; I spent way too much time thinking about how many odds or evens could add up to different totals, but now it makes me want to have some fun with a whole book of puzzles like this. I hope someone will write one someday!

This was one of the most interesting killers I've seen, too.

So many nice puzzles!

Did not attempt even/odd/big/small because symbol list did not print. But I only had time to finish seven puzzles anyway. I'll never be a real speed solver, but the puzzles were very clever and I look forward to solving at my leisure. bob

Almost each puzzle was about singles. I don't think it's a funny style and I don't like puzzles where I need so many singles.
Due to this it was very hard set for me. I wasn't able to solve it fluently but I needed to make small jumps from one single to another.
And because I'm not a beginner I was able to reach some points with guessing on those hard puzzles. Without that I will have 87 points less :(
Nice types of puzzles in this set but too hard I guess.

2 hours were well choosen. You can print it properly and there is enough time for sending answers. So time limit was just right.

But I know it's necessary to practice hard competitions too. So thank you for this competition!

Great set of puzzles....Each had its own beauty and hard to pick one as favorite... But I would venture to say that the Even Odd Big Small would be my pick purely based on the surprising twost to the puzzle... The Quad Sum and Repeated neighbors were tricky.... Overall not bad (performance wise).

Great Job Deb!!

Wow, I should think about doing every contest on monday evening. On weekends, I never get this "I'm on steam!"-feeling. Thank you for a really nice test.

For some reason in Mozilla Firefox neither the puzzles or even the login part was displayed (not even the initializing bar), so I had to switch to Chromium and there it worked perfectly. Not sure why was that...
Otherwise no problems.

EDIT: Okay, it seems that it might have been because I didn't have the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player as now after updating it's working in Firefox as well. I had 11.5.502.something but not exactly the 149. But in Chromium it still worked using the slightly older version of Flash Player

You need to have flash installed for Firefox. Use this link to check - http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.ht... if you have it installed.

First of all, I would like to thank WPF for starting this new initiative and Hana for coordinating these events. With online contests growing in last few years, it was a perfect decision for WPF to have its own online competition. The huge number of turnouts at Czech and Indian rounds is an ample proof of that. I sincerely hope the Sudoku Grand Prix is here to stay for a long long time. While the Sudoku Grand Prix was the most logical step to begin with, lets also hope that WPF starts Puzzle Grand Prix sooner than later.

Now in Round2, here are the top 10
Jan Mrozowski, POL 200
Seungjae Kwak, KOR 199
Kota Morinishi, JPN 198
Hideaki Jo, JPN 197
Nikola Zivanovic, SRB 196
Rishi Puri, IND 195
Ce Jin, CHN 194
Vincent Bertrand, BEL 193
Bastien Vial-Jaime, FRA 192
Rohan Rao, IND 191

Here are the top 3, both rounds combined
Jan Mrozowski (399)
Seungjae Kwak (396)
Nikola Zivanovic (392)

Congratulations to the top players and thank you everyone for participating. It is exremely satisfying to see two Indian in top 10 (and one more in top 20) in round 2. Good job Rishi, Rohan and PS. Keep it up.
