What can I do if same thing will happen in this event ??? It is advisable to play sudokus offline (i mean by taking prints of the pdf), especially if you are a beginner. Balnk screens etc are local computer problems which can be sorted out by refreshing the page or by logging in again. |

Only sudoku tests will have the puzzles appearing on screen and that too, not all tests. |

These 2 rounds are independent of each other. Haha ! too many mistakes for me on the 4 classic sudokus ! Must now wait till the end to play variants... Oh I didn't see the link for the variants. I can play now ![]() I think top players like you should start both the rounds at the same time and have a maximum submission time of 40 minutes. |

Posts: 27 ![]() Country : India | gauravkorde posted @ 2012-07-26 1:19 PM i guess the puzzles are still a bit tough ones...it could be better if slightly easier puzzles with 6 in each round would be better so that most players can atleast finish half.. btw why is prassanna's score not showing if he has solved the puzzles?? |

Posts: 3 Country : India | krisram posted @ 2012-07-26 2:54 PM In the results page, http://logicmastersindia.com/BeginnersSudoku/score.asp I can see a button "Claim Score" for one of the puzzles I have solved and the points for that particular puzzle has not been added to my total score as well. When I try to press the button and submit, I get an error - "Error occured while connecting to server". What is this button "Claim Score" meant for? Is there any issues currently? |

Posts: 12 Country : France | distri posted @ 2012-07-28 8:39 PM LMI tournaments are very impressive and hard, often frustrating for Beginners or slow players like me. I hope these contests will be suggested again ,It 's also a good training against the stress of the stopwatch . Thank you for this great idea |

Posts: 1800 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : India | prasanna16391 posted @ 2012-07-28 10:40 PM We have noticed that many participants are using the "claim points" button for every wrong submission. This button is only to be used if you feel you have solved the Sudoku correctly and have made an error of some sort while entering the answer key. All other claims will be rejected. Once you have submitted please check your solutions for errors before claiming points, else its really a waste of time. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : India | Administrator posted @ 2012-08-01 5:48 AM July Beginners' Contest is over. We are trying to filter out some results (like the one in the attachment) (AmazingTime.png) Attachments ---------------- ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : India | Administrator posted @ 2012-08-01 8:59 AM Based the number of participants (314 participants, 204 non-zero scores, 203 Indians), we can very well say that lot of participants are looking forward to "easier" competitions (compared to, for example, the monthly tests). We will continue to hold these Beginners' contests as frequently as we can, but not certainly more than once a month. At the same time, we expect some of these players should try the monthly tests as well. Most, if not all, monthly tests have some basic sudoku types as well as some easy sudokus. Now back to July's results - obviously jaku111 and kimking solved the 8 sudokus in incredible time. We have not defined (not sure if it is objectively possible to define) who a beginner is - any suggestions welcome. However, we are pleased to announce the top 3 debutants. They are, in order : Manuj Arora (manuj) - India SUDOMICH - France ARCHANA TAYADE (ARTAYADE) - India Congratulations everyone, and thank you for participating and making it a success. Please share any feedback you might have (except that the Classics were tougher than the Variants :-) |

Posts: 148 ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : France | Ours brun posted @ 2012-08-01 3:06 PM First, I would like to point out that the variants were clearly easier than the classics. Don't know if this had been said before. (sorry) Seriously, I think the very high indian participation proves the attractiveness of such easy tests. The 40' length is certainly a good thing too for some beginners who may be afraid of two hours contests, or are not yet passionate enough to spend that much time solving sudokus. Definitely a good initiative to pursue. Happy to see fellow Sudomich doing well; he has been solving classic sudokus for a long time now, but has only recently entered the variants world. Clearly he is the type of player to who these tests may be useful. Thanks to LMI team once again ! |
