Sudoku Masters 2008 - Sudoku National Championship Open for Registration
The Registration Page for Sudoku masters 2008, National Sudoku Championship for deciding the participants for the 3rd World Sudoku Championship, is open.
The practice sessions will began on 15th and the qualifying test (online) on 16th. Do check the pages for Rules and Regulations there. The number of participants who will be selected in each round is “yet to be decided” (as quoted in their site).
Best of Luck to everyone… Be quick on registration…
The Registration began, as last scheduled, on 8th March, but my GPRS connection from BPL Mobile went down and the support staff was generous enough to blame it on my handset. Anyways the connection started up again without any modifications to handset settings, but then got involved in other routines and hence this delay in posting.

The site now has link for the PDF files. One that you can read now contains the rules and points associated with each sudoku… The second file is password encrypted and the password will be revealed to you just at the beginning of the contest on 16th when you log in using your token id… and you will get 2.5 hrs to solve all puzzles (25 of them!!!) each one having its own weightage, total of 2008 points in all. It’s on you to decide which puzzle to solve and which one to leave… Try to get the maximum points out of them…
