1 Star Battle Sudoku
(a) Can you please confirm this will not have an irregular grid?
(b) Can you please confirm this will use only one star?

2 Mastermind Sudoku
Could you please confirm the full mastermind code with be supplied as part of the puzzle

3 Japanese Sums
I can see this being a very messy puzzle to solve. Is it necessary to shade the cells as part of the solution?

6 Sudokuro
Could you please clarify whether all possible sums (including the single cell sums) will be given?

1. Its mentioned 3x3 boxes in instructions. The number of stars will be given in bottom-right below the grid, as in the example.

2. We cannot confirm this.

3. Its mentioned in the Round Note that it is not required to shade cells.

6. One cell sums may or may not be given, but all groups of more than one cell will have the sum given.

Sudoku 5 : Paint it Black

Will the clues given outside be in order in the competition puzzle ? It is not mentioned explicitly in the rules but the case occurs in the example.

Outside clues are in order. Standard Paint It Black rules.
Will get this added to make it clear. Thanks!

9 Word Search

Given the implied answer of the possible non-inclusion of the mastermind code in competition - despite its explicit appearance in the IB - I feel it's prudent to ask whether the equally helpful list of letters at the bottom of the grid in the IB for this puzzle will also appear in competition?

Digits in code will not repeat. We will add this in the IB.
Thanks!
