Hi Richard, thanks for the contest, nice Sudokus as expected. My performance felt like average for me, and had no luck too with the timing, missed the Sum Sandwich by maybe 30 seconds (but thats only 30 points). I felt I needed a break after the last contest, so I had some more or less puzzle-free weeks and no preparation, otherwise I think I would have felt "overpuzzled" in the upcoming WPF Grand Prix' and of course the German Championships. Now it's time to start training again ;-)

After solving the remaining half, I'm happy I didn't do the Greater than X. Nice path and my favourite in the set, but would have cost much too much time in the contest.

 How did you feel about the length / time limit for this test? Just right
 Of the puzzles you solved/attempted, how well did their point values reflect the difficulty/time spent? Most puzzles were worth the right amount

Enjoyed the test, albeit I had to do it in something of a rush. Thanks Richard!

 What was your opinion of the distribution of easy/hard puzzles? Just right
 What did you think about the puzzle quality of the test? Very nice
 How did you feel about the length / time limit for this test? Way too many puzzles (too little time)

When I say "too little time" means I need much more to solve all puzzles. However, the contests shouldn't be any longer (I even would prefer shorter, but I understand that it is than more difficult to have a balanced choice of puzzles). So the time is really ok.
