Hello again,
before I forget: The uploaded files do not contain any examples; for examples I refer you to my personal Skyscraper puzzles web page link).
I will post a few remarks on manual score adjustments in the German forum.

Busy weekend for contests (and another one next weekend) but this one's definitely worth your time.
There's a nice mix of difficulty, so even the folks who are not great at skyscraper (raises hand, is sure) will find plenty to enjoy.

Fortunately the rain made it easier for an excuse to do puzzles instead of other jobs. Thanks Roland for this, the difficulty mix meant that I had plenty to go at.

No rush - I have a feeling I've got quite enough puzzling to do this weekend!

The standings are now finalized. For those who didn't have a chance to participate on the weekend: the contest can now be started at any time (you just won't show up in the table).
