Participation Method
At the time of registration, participants will choose whether to start the puzzle on Saturday or Sunday. Times will be recorded based on the chosen start, but the final ranking will be unique, merging the times from the first round with the times from the second round.
Participants aiming to complete the puzzle within 1:30 must connect to the live session via Google Meet, pointing the camera at the puzzle. The link to join the Google Meet session will be provided in the Telegram group dedicated to the tournaments: https://t.me/+juzi-lNv3NYxOTA0
Participants who do not think they will complete the puzzle within 1:30 can choose not to participate in the live session but can start the puzzle with the camera off. If a participant with the camera off completes the puzzle before 1:30, they will automatically be considered to have a time of 1:31.
Rules
For those with the camera on, the puzzle can only be opened after the judge provides the secret word. For those with the camera off, before opening the puzzle, they must write the secret word on the sticker cells above the puzzle and post a photo in the Telegram group.
In case of a loss of connection, for every minute of offline video, a one-minute penalty will be added to the delivery time.
After completing the puzzle, it is necessary to post the photo in the Telegram group, whether online with the camera on or offline with the camera off.
The time of posting the photo of the completed puzzle will determine the ranking of the Puzzle Tournament.

All participants from the 11th and 12th editions who completed the puzzle in over 3 hours will be included in a "beginners" ranking. In addition to competing in the main tournament ranking, they will also participate in this new ranking. The winner of the "beginners" ranking will receive free registration for the next tournament.
If a participant has recorded a time of less than 3 hours in at least one of the last two tournaments, they cannot be included in the "beginners" category.
