When I tell you this video was a PROJECT, I am not lying. In fact, it was so much work that I only got half of it done and decided to split it into two parts. So today I’m recapping the Individual round, plus answering some questions about how puzzle competitions work. Then whenever I get it finished, I’ll be posting Part 2, where I recap the Pairs and Teams events.

My favorite part of this video is analyzing all the data. Let me know if there are any additional stats you want to see me calculate!

Just getting this video itself done took all of my time and energy, so I don’t have any new bonus videos this week, but I’ll be posting another long puzzle time lapse in a separate post in just a minute, so keep an eye out for that.

It's fascinating and fun but I noted (as a proud Canadian) there were no Canadians in the rankings. Just a point of interest. I wonder if puzzling is more part of culture in countries like Spain, Norway, Sweden, etc? Do you have any stats on puzzle sales by country. I remember before the pandy finding out there was a two storey puzzle warehouse here in Montreal -- I almost fainted. But I am still the oddball puzzle nerd in my circle. Anyway, love your work and sharing your passion and fun.

Is there a national competition in the US?
