  1. Flash Anzan Intervals for Answers :

5 sec. for mental addition of 1 digit problems

7 sec. for mental addition of 2 digit problems

9 sec. for mental addition of 3 digit problems

11 sec. for mental addition of 4 digit problems

13 sec. for mental addition of 5 digit problems

  1. In the category of Flash Anzan, Memoriad™ Software generates 1 to 6 digit numbers (that consist of 0, 1, 2, 3, ...., 8, 9 numerals) at random and flash them on the screen at a frequency of 1.0 to 0.3 seconds. The competitors are expected to add the flashing numbers at the given frequency on the screen and write their answers using the computer keyboard. First digit of the flashing number shall not be zero.
  2. All the competitors must add the same problems.
  3. After flashing each mental addition question, competitors will enter their answers on the screen at an interval time given above. If the competitor cannot enter his/her answer at the given interval time, the central server will start showing the next question without waiting for an additional time.
  4. If the answer is not given or left blank, the answer will be counted as "wrong".
  5. Competitors will collect points for only their correct answers.
  6. The rank of competitors will be done according to their total points collected.
  7. In this category there can be more than one attempt. If more than one attempt are made, the best score obtained from all attempts counts.
  8. In case of any ties, the second best scores that are not equal decide the winner.
