It is possible. But needs some amount of manual work.

I finished 3rd in the regional round (puzzle category) at IIT Bombay.

At IIT Bombay, we were informed that the top 3 will qualify for the national finals - was relaxed about the whole thing till today when I saw the list of invitations, and found that it did not incorporate this top 3 per region rule.

I was looking at another thread, and it seems that the declaration "top 3 = qualification for nationals" was indeed made elsewhere as well.
(adityasaraf007's post in http://www.logicmastersindia.com/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=2...)

Now, I don't know what to do as I did not participate in the online round either.

So there are no playoffs/eliminators/semis/finals,right?
The total score from all the 38 puzzles across the 3 rounds will be taken into consideration,right?

ABC Connection - You don't need to know if all cells have to be used to solve the puzzle

Paint-By-Number - Yes, clues are in order. Will change the instruction.

Hi,
In the Queens Park puzzle it is mentioned that "A queen does not block another queen."
Then in that case R2C4 = 4 instead of 3, R2C5 = 5 instead of 4 and R4C4 = 3 instead of 2
I think it should rather say "A queen blocks another queen".

Please verify this.

Thanks
Ravi.

Sorry about that statement "A queen does not block another queen".
It is not necessary, and moreover confusing.

The correct instruction will read
"Place X number of queens into the grid
so that none of them stands on
a number and each number
equals to the number of
directions from which the given
square is attacked by a queen.
A queen attacks to arbitrary
distance horizontally, vertically
and diagonally.
"

It is important to note that the number represents number of directions from which it can be attacked.
It doesn't represent number of queens that can attack the square.

Hope it is clear.
