IVIQ is a quarterly and online IQ puzzle competition open to
everybody. Competitions are planned for March, June, September
and December, and will be announced (or postponed) at least
two weeks in advance.
» IVIQ results are converted to
ratings at IQ
Puzzle Ratings.
Rules:
01. There is no registration for the competition. There
is also no fee, but donations are welcome. See details...
02. Test includes up to 10 IQ puzzles of one of four
kinds: numerical, verbal, spatial or optimization.
03. Test is a pdf file. You need to download Adobe Reader to see the file.
04. Help of any other person or computer processor strength
is not allowed.
05. Competitors agree to be rated by IQ
Puzzle Ratings, and should enter their names in Latin characters
only. Competitors missing 10 consecutive rounds will be deleted
from the list.
06. Points will be given according to the solvability.
The balanced score for each item is simply the ratio (number
of competitors, including all from previous four rounds)/ (number
of correct answers).
07. At the exact time of the competition start, test
file will be available to be downloaded at the Status window
above.
08. Each optimization puzzle will have an "answer key"
to be written in the form on the answer page. Answers will be
checked manually but you have to obey answer keys.
09. You have a full month to submit the answers of the
puzzles to iviqsub@gmail.com.
You may send multiple submissions, but enter your name, surname
and e-mail address in each submission. Your latest submission
for a puzzle will be taken as your official answer to that puzzle.
10. An errata column will be published on the main page of the web site. It's up to you to check the errata column until the competition ends.
11. Each competitor has to rate all puzzles whether he/she
has solved it or not. Rate the puzzles in a scale of 1-10 (10
being top) with respect to the enjoyment while solving the puzzle
and the creation of the puzzle. You may give the same rating
to multiple puzzles. Ratings will be sent with the answers.
12. Solutions WILL NOT be given for numerical, verbal
and spatial puzzles. Those puzzles will possibly be part of
future tests measuring intelligence quotient (IQ).
13. Top ten competitors of each IVIQ will be displayed
on this page for three months (until the next IVIQ).
14. Top ten puzzles of all IVIQ puzzles will be displayed
on this page. |
