It is better to not mention about prizes.
Never received anything even after becoming top 100 many times.

    Don't know about you but I have received the prizes many(3-4times) times. Sure the prizes take time but they always come. Won the random prize once and they were also delivered

Bodega Orders: It seems that there was an extra constraint $$$X_i \neq X_j (i \neq j)$$$ (and it's needed I think)
btw I like this problem, thanks!

Why do these guys LOCK the problems after contest? I almost solved E with only one Testcase wrong (and figured out just now that it was only due to overflow). Now I'm desperate to submit it again, but it's locked!
