What is a jigsaw puzzle competition?
Here is a breakdown of the basics:
- Each team receives the same puzzle
- No one gets to see the puzzle until the timer begins – the puzzle boxes are placed face down before the competition starts
- Fun Fact: The puzzles are from “Puzzle Twist”… so the image won’t be *exactly* like the one you see on the box.
- Individuals or teams try to put the puzzle together the fastest
- Competitions are a specified amount of time; if there is no declared winner by the end of the time limit, the winner is chosen by their remaining number of loose pieces
- In the event of a tie, individuals or teams can be given an additional five minutes to work on the puzzle
- There are no devices or outside assistance permitted while working on a puzzle
- Multiple moderators help with the event – one to handle the timer and completion times, and another to observe and ensure that competitors are abiding by the rules
- Individuals and teams are not allowed to distract or approach team tables when the competition is in progress
