Last few people left...then the final round will be posted.

All the best fellas!! Waiting for next round

Congrats to everyone who finished all 3 sudokus in the given time. Here are the answers to each. The green are the numbers you had to fill out.

Note that if you gave me a different answer I did accept it as long as all the numbers worked properly. I am not sharing all the different answers I got, but I did get 1 different answer for each sudoku apart from the ones I shared below that worked as well.

Easy

Medium

There were 2 responses for this sudoku and a majority of people gave me this second response (you got points).

Hard

The following people have been eliminated:

Sevenstreaks - quit

Life_Is_Dutiful - quit

Agni_Jytsona - no response to sudokus

Ajab.Pehchan - no response to sudokus

Alaukik - tried but had a brain freeze

SoniRita - tried but couldn't solve one

x.titli.x - tried but couldn't solve one

Think of a word search but one without a list and with a theme. That's Strands for you. Below you'll find 10 word searches, each with a hint towards the theme of that puzzle. Find the words (I've even provided the number) and then see if you can identify the theme! It's the last round, so make it count!

Each correctly finished word search will give you 20 points. If you choose the right word as a theme, you will get a bonus 5 points. Fill out a word search incorrectly and lose 5 points. You'll lose those 5 points if you don't finish a word search as well.

And just for this round I'm offering hints in the form of the theme word for 5 points for each word search. This means I would give you the yellow highlighted word from the example for each word search you want it for.

Now to make it easier, I've provided an example. The hint of this one is "I gotta dip". The result would look something like this. The word in yellow is the theme for this word search - guacamole. The words are all ingredients of guacamole.

A few important pointers:

1) Each letter is used in Strands and is only used once.

2) Words can be in any direction and in different rows and columns (for example see "lime" or "tomato" above.

Now that you have a sense of how this round works, go forth and give it your best try. Deadline is Aug 27th 11:59 PM IST.

You can send me either the finished word search or a list of the words from each Strand. Whatever is easier for you. I will count both as completed formats. Only 1 entry per person unless I point out something wrong in your entry.

1) Man's other best friends (8 words)

2) Sounds delicious (8 words)

3) Family night before phones (8 words)

4) Who, where, and with what (9 words)

5) Needed for all offices (8 words)

6) Endearment (8 words)

7) Don't do it (8 words)

8) Wear it (7 words)

9) Mark my words (7 words)

10) Courtroom (7 words)
