If you want your ready-made blank form to work properly it is necessary to allow cookies in your browser. Make sure that you have it set up right.
It is necessary to have javascript allowed to be in view of the remaining time for the solving (Careful! Displayed time is only orientation one and can be influenced by many factors! We recommend to clock the time by your own stopwatch).

Prepare your printer and make sure that you have enough ink or toner there.

Your answers can be sent as many times as you need in the two-hour time limit. If you learn you sent the wrong answer, it won’t be a problem to correct your answer by sending new answers. Only the last sent solution will be taken into account (even if the last solution is wrong and the former solution was right). Send the answers as a row of numbers without gaps, commas or any other signs.

It is not possible to send the answers after the time limit termination. Be careful and enter your answers in time not to miss sending the answers of the puzzles you have solved!

With respect to the online form of competition, the results will be processed in a short time. Look at the forum to learn more.

In the scoreboard there will be all the players who gave their name, surname and the country of origin. Apart the basic information there will be the points for particular correctly solved puzzles. In case you want to take part anonymously, only under your nickname, there won’t be your results in the scoreboard.
In your account there are some new functions.

They are three check-boxes whose functions are as follows:
1) nickname disclose
