Complete Results

It was a fun test. Applying two constraints to a sudoku required a lot of concentration. In the midst of the test, I kept getting confused between the variants due to repetition. I read 'nonconsecutive' and I applied antiknight! Luckily I caught myself every time I blundered and passed it with a laugh. Its been a while since I stood in the top 10 of an LMI test, so its been a good weekend for me. Congrats to WaterlooMathie for pipping the ever-topping Snyder. Maybe Snyder will be back next month with a vengeance!
