I've seen some cp sites that ussually offers t-shirts as a prize.
If I'm not mistaken even cf has an official T-shirt (btw, how many of you have one?)
However it seems is just a myth because none of the t-shirts I won has arrived. In particular, neither topcoder open, facebook cup, yandex, ...
Does cp t-shirts really exist?
Yes, they exist. This years Facebook Hacker Cup shirt arrived two days ago, the one from Yandex about a month ago. I overslept the important Topcoder round, so no idea if they shipped or not.
Could you post an image of hackercup and yandex t-shirts to see how them look?
red one
so this is when police captured Radewoosh?

It is darnley actually
Funny that this image can be found by "hackercup t-shirt" in Google
LOL. Does this have any context?
This was, I think, the third time I was arrested on pro-democracy / pro-fair-elections / anti-corruption protests in Russia.
By the way, after the fifth arrest, in the detention cell I was sitting with a guy who participated in a programming competition in high school, and he remembered the most elegant problem from that contest, and... I happened to be the author! It was really pleasant to find out!
Wow. Really amazing story.
I've won two T-shirts (TCO and Hacker Cup), and I know the companies shipped them because I received customs notifications. But, I live in Argentina... so, usual scenario, the customs staff stole them. The excuse I got was that "Textile items cannot be imported". Well, the thing is as of today, I have no CP T-shirt in my closet.
therefore, the only way of getting T-shirts for us is to qualify to the finals.
So we'll never get T-shirts I guess... :(
Do non-CP t-shirts exist? ;_;
big flex
I've got a t-shirt from TCO 2017 and it took about a year to arrive. If you have patience, I recommend sending e-mails asking for the t-shirt status (Have they sent it yet? Can they share a tracking number or some prevision on when will they send it?) and hopefully they will answer you (because sometimes they won't and you probably won't be able to do anything) — btw, I've never had problems with topcoder t-shirts (I have 3 of them).
After they send it, depending on where you live, comes the real challenge — I live in Brazil, for instance, and for delivering a single t-shirt it is asked you to pay taxes that can get about 4x the value of the t-shirt — once I was asked to pay 120BRL ~ 40 dollars (at the time, now it is 30 dollars T T) for a 10 dollars evaluated t-shirt.
The real question is what to do with all these tees. I literally don't have enough space to keep them.
;)
@kostka: Could you please post a pic of a CF T-shirt?
