Hello everybody.

I would like to invite you to participate in a new competition, that will be held on the 30th of October at 16:00 MSK. It will be a part of the series of winter programming school olympiads, but it will be only a standart Codeforces round for adult participants.

Teams aren't invited, only single members. The official rules will be ACM-ICPC.
Jury has decided to increase the duration of the competition, which will be 4 hours long.

Attention: People, who are considered out of competition, are participants of Codeforces Round #38, others are participants of School Personal Contest #1. But we will use merged result table for updating rating.


The authors are me, Mike Mirzayanov and Artem Rakhov. Also I'm expressing gratitude to Maria Belova, Max Ivanov and Natalia Bondarenko for help.

P.S. Please, don't forget to register to the competition!

UPD: The contest has finished, thanks to all. I hope, you have got fun :)

Congratulations to tourist. It tooks him ~2 hours to solve all problems!

The next official school contest will be on November, 6, at 14.00 MSK

Total number of participants is 788, 274 of them have taken part in the school competition.

      But why in the page http://codeforces.net/contestRegistrants/38 many people are considered out of competition?

        Don't worry. Round will be rated for them too.

    Why not?
    Registration is opened until the end of the contest, because ACM ICPC rules don't require rooms segmentation.

Hey! I participated a few minutes because I didn't have enough time and I knew I was out of competition and now I see it's rated! You clearly said that we (the not-highschool people) were going to be OUT OF COMPETITION, and that clearly means UNRATED :(

    By the way, when you registered for the contest it was written that it would be rated for everyone.

In reply to jayesh02 :
You can click the square item on the right-upper corner of your screen which followed by "out of competetion".
The algo/solutions will be published a few days later, you can discuss them there.
