4th Open Serbian Optimizing Puzzle Championship

I would like to announce 4th Open Serbian Optimizing Puzzle Championship. This year, again, the competition will be divided into two rounds:

The first set will be available 03.12. (Saturday) at 12:00 (Belgrade time, GMT+1) on our website puzzleserbia.com. Deadline for sending solutions is 10.12. up to 24:00.
The second set will be available 11.12. (Sunday) at 12:00. Deadline for sending solutions will be 17.12. up to 24:00.

Day after deadline for set, all received solutions will be available. Scoring table will be ready within 48h, and next 48h any complains will be considered - author's decision will be final. After that, final results will be published and winners declared.

In finding solutions, or parts of the solution, you may not use the suggestion from any side, including computer programs (a coin flip is allowed). The programs can be used only to calculate result for your solution. For some puzzles we will provide that kind of programs (Delphi for Windows). Lovers of programming are invited to participate in the subsequent analysis.

So, optimize your schedule in a such way that your free time is maximized in early December
