Points distributions and the overall difficulty level are currently being calibrated and finalised, I'm hoping to have the instructions out in the next couple of days

Thanks for this, Tom - as I've already said to you, the puzzle quality was very high. Definitely my favourite UKSC since I started competing. I particularly enjoyed all of the classics, the OEBS, the Diagonal, the Irregular and the Eliminate.

Thanks both! I'm happy with the way the puzzles came out, even if it was a bit on the harder side this time round.

I wanted to make a quick announcement - results were due to be published today, however I've had a fairly hectic week and haven't had time to properly consider any partial points and challenges yet. We also need to run the script that applies the bonus and partial bonus too.

For that reason results are not likely to be released until Saturday. If we can do quicker than that, we will!
