Enjoyable test.Should have completed it... Had a good amount of time for the 2 Black White and Greys but wasnt able to figure them out
Kakurodoku 1,Kakuro 2 and 3 and Thermometer 2 and 3 were my favourites of the lot
Felt that Thermometer 2 was harder than 3
Answer keys were reasonably good
Thank you Rakesh for the smooth start to PR 2020!
Edit :On seeing above comments,I have to say that BWG 1 seems to have 2 solutions and i cant find the mistake in mine.I thought mine was wrong and spent the rest of my time on it without trying BWG 2 deeply enough because of this!.Chance for bonus points missed! :(

Puzzle 19
The puzzle has two solutions, as noted by some of the participants. Both answers will be accepted as correct.
For those who have already taken the test, the penalty will be removed and an adjustment shall be made based on the approximate time lost.

That was nice and relaxing test, despite the mistakes. Thanks Rakesh.
I am positively surprised to see three classic sudokus in a puzzle contest. I don't remember ever seeing that. Hope this is the beginning of sudoku's return to puzzle competitions in all its appearances.

Completely missed the number limit for the kakuros(my bad). Didnt think of reading instructions for a regulation kakuro. Lesson learnt!. But that said, maybe the name could be changed to Limited Kakuro or something like that?
Was also wondering how i could get stuck in a 6*6 sudoko.. No idea how to claim those points.
Im also confused about the 2nd Numberlink puzzle. Dont understand why my answer is wrong.
Realized after the test that Hitori and the other puzzles were much easier than the kakuros.

Lots of points for Kakuros compared to the others, but overall a great contest thank you.

Oh, now I see I can't use 7,8,9 in the first one and 9 in the second one. This would have made them easier/solvable. I guess I need to read the instructions, even for "classic" puzzles.

I'm happy that I completed the test! Although I got messed up because I forgot that some of the Kakuros / Kakurodokus had [1-6] or [1-8] range.
