トーナメント #8800 «Sudoku Afternoon»

This headstart system is questionable.
Above, a person who has not solved a single of 5 games, is at 4th place, and a person who has at least solved one game, is at 5th place.

This is ethically wrong.

This way, the game is judged by the headstart your system assigns, and not by acutal performance.

I put my objection to the headstart system,
lease remove headstarts. Let it be level playing field.

Thanks.

Круто, я забыл про турнир

After "pre-placed candidates" have been removed, the games are much more fun and much more challenging. I am loving them.
Previously it was just pattern matching, and one could have cracked a game just by pattern matching of candidates, and not actually solving sudokus.

But, now it takes more time, so it might be ok for other tournaments who give hours for each round.
But for this sudoku afternoon, the time between rounds, and total time for each to finish is appearing very less.

Please give it a thought and give at least half an hour for each round of sudoku afternoon, in the new "non-candidate" style.

Thanks.
