Puzzle Fountain: Classic Puzzles Championship #15

Competition #15 (8-10 april 2011, 25 applets) will start in: Duration: 90 minutes
Some tips :

    * You can visit any time your contest page and look at your solutions simply by clicking on the link, for example to find mistakes.
    * When you click on the Submit solution button, you must wait for the confirmation of data saved before clicking on a new puzzle link; otherwise your solution will be lost.
    * It's NOT a good idea to right-click on a link and open another page or tab to solve a new puzzle. This may cause loss of data (and in the worst case the applet will work no more). So don't do it!
    * You can also save partial solutions by clicking on Submit solutions (only colors will not be saved).
    * IMPORTANT: by pressing on SPACE during solving, it's possible that you delete all your numbers! Use DEL to delete a single number. SPACE works as ENTER in java, and if a DELETE COLOR button is active, it will work.
