really nice classics especially the 4th 9x9 one. For most of the 9x9 variants it was breaking spree for me except the thermo. And hence didn't get the time to attempt any of the 6x6 and 9x9 arrow sudokus. Great solving path of the palindrome and nice placings. It was my favourite variant. The diagonal 9x9 was a tough one. Windoku was nice.

It was a rough start for me which is ok considering my absence from solving for about 2 months.

Will surely try to better my performance in the remaining rounds.

A big thanks to Kumaresan for creating these amazing set of sudokus

Very nice set of puzzles, all of them had very nice logical steps. It was difficult to choose a favorite from Diagonal, Thermo and Arrow. Thanks for the test Kumaresan.

Thanks for asking this question.

Yes. The waiting time will not be long normally, but it is not going to be instant approval either - at this point of time. We are reviewing the registration process and decide if this step can be done away with in future. This step was introduced recently as there were too many spams from bot accounts during 2017-2018.

Did you miss the start where adding the maximum possibilities for all the arrow cells for the three arrows at the top, and those at the bottom gives a nice start.

There were some very interesting new ideas for otherwise familiar puzzle types. I have not seen this author before and I commend the author for doing such nice work!
