The 2011 Competition is over. Congratulations to everyone who solved puzzles, and particularly to our top 3 teams in each category. See the team stats page for the final scores and rankings of all teams. We hope you had as much fun solving the puzzles as we did creating them. Worked solutions for each puzzle can be found on the puzzle page. We will soon post a feedback form so you can let us know what you liked and disliked about the 2011 competition. If you have lengthy feedback, or just can't wait, please send e-mail to puzzles@cisra.canon.com.au.

We have confirmed the 1st and 2nd prizes for the 2011 Competition. This year first prize will be a Canon PowerShot SX230 HS camera for each team member, and second prize will be Canon IXUS 220 HS cameras. We're also working hard on archiving the 2010 competition (it's non-trivial) and getting registrations open for 2011. Keep your eyes peeled!
