Results of 2014 Annual Logic Championship


You will find below the rankings for the 2014 Logic Championship; the number next to the player's name is the number of times that player has participated in a championship.

Congratulations first and foremost to our top-ranked players:

1st Place: Mehrab of United Kingdom - 100% correct!

2nd Place: Christoph Hillinger of Austria
 - 98% correct!

3rd Place: Rytis Budreika of Lithuania
 - 98% correct!
Next, congratulations to everyone who played in the championship. I hope you found it entertaining, challenging and educational. And for those who were not able to participate in the championship, you can take the quizzes next week through the Practice feature. We will also make the championship as a whole available as a Test, so you can take it just like these players did.

This championship marks a big change for the Logic quizzes. For several years we have used a Mastermind-like format for our quizzes. Yet we also published (and, of course, anyone could also write) automated solvers for Mastermind.

As a result, we changed our quizzes for the championship and expect to do so for the weekly quizzes as well.
