The Google puzzle championship is over. The contest that started Saturday June 17, contained 23 challenging puzzles. Google highly doubted that any one person could finish all of the puzzles in the aloted time frame of 2.5 hours.

Points from the contest were allocated based on the time the specific puzzle was completed in. Some of the puzzles in the list were deemed more important by Google, thus, more point value was assigned to them. Even though they were presented from easiest to hardest, some might have been valued more then others. Incorrect answers were docked 5 points.

The official puzzles are located online now, along with answers.

This was an awesome way for Google to scout the talent of people in the US who think differnet, and at a level that could benefit Google's development.
