Overall 104 people have joined the international category this year: 35 of them were competing individually, but we also had 19 teams of 2-5 people each (with 1 changed and 68 original members in all the teams together). Registered competitors came from Hungary (24), USA (16), Greece (6), Austria (5), Brazil (5), Germany (5), Serbia (5), Slovakia (5), Slovenia (5), Spain (4), Canada (3), Czechia (3), Peru (3), Croatia (2), Ireland (2), Italy (2), UK (2), Australia (1), Iceland (1), Mexico (1), The Netherlands (1), Norway (1) and Sweden (1).
The individual competitors and the teams received the same set of tasks, but competed on separate leaderboards. (This form was already present in the Hungarian categories before, where the team competition for schools was the original form, and the game was opened for adults competing alone about the same time on national and international level.)
Of the 35+19 registered competitors, 15 individuals and 16 teams have submitted their solutions for either the first or the second round, and 9+11 completed all five rounds of the competition. We understand that five monthly rounds take up a lot of time, and appreciate the work of all competitors, who started this journey, and especially the perseverance of all finishers. Here we present you the final scores achieved by those who have completed at least four of the five rounds.
This article is decorated with examples of the beautiful artworks we have received as creative solutions during this competition. One such picture was already published in the Winter 2026 issue of our magazine, the Lassi Laurië (click here to check it out), and we hope to show you still more of these in the future.

Special mentions:
The Lissi Tolumbassi and Urulóki teams both finished with the 3rd best quiz results (96,2%) among the team competitors.
The Frodo’s Four Fingers team achieved the best scores (1st place) in the creative challenges among the team competitors.
(There was officially no quiz and creative sub-competitions for teams, as teams were expected to solve all the tasks, while individuals could choose to do only the quiz or only the creative part.)
We congratulate all your achievements,
and hope to see you again in next year’s competition!
