LMI : Beginners' Sudoku Contest

After a stunning response in Regional Rounds held for Indian Sudoku Championship by Times of India in Co-ordination with LMI. LMI decided to have this contest which will attract lot of indians and encourage to participate and get use to the various types of sudoku.

"LMI Beginners' Sudoku Contests" is targeted at players who have mostly solved Classic sudokus in the past, with much less expertise in variants.

 There will be 2 rounds, each of 40 minutes. One round will contain 4 Classic Sudokus, other one will contain 4 basic variants.

This contest is planned every month with 1 week of participation time so that one has freedom to participate according to their leisure.

AUGUST 2012 contest has already started with still 4 days left.
