Rules

  • For each contest, each person/pair/team will receive the same puzzle in an opaque bag. Rules will be given, and then the MC will count down "3, 2, 1, GO!"  Everyone will open the bag, open the puzzle box, and begin puzzling.  Rankings will be determined by finish time.  The contest puzzles are yours to keep.
  • No early starts! If you open your bag and begin your puzzle before the start of the contest you will be disqualified.
  • Box top holders may be used. Other personal aides are also allowed as long as they do not interfere with the puzzle area of other competitors. Please contact the event host at [email protected] with any questions.
  • Individual timers are not available at the event, but you may bring your own personal time. There will also be a timer displayed on the TV at the front of the room visible to everyone.

If a judge is unable to get to your table when you finish please record your own time on the time card provided at your table.
  • If, once the maximum time has elapsed, the puzzle is not complete, a photograph will be taken of your table and a judge will count the remaining pieces not placed. Single pieces or a group of two pieces will be counted as one. A group of 3 pieces correctly placed in the puzzle area (at the judges discretion) will be considered completed and not counted.
