      The contest is mainly aimed toward US students and the organizers feel that the afternoon is the best time. Sorry that we can't shift the timings :(

It was a lot of fun setting problems for this contest. Although not in the announcement, our three favorite gyrating cats, Peach, Goma, and PurpleCrayon all appear as part of flavor text! PurpleCrayon orz!

    Sorry for the confusion! Only middle or highschool is eligible for prizes, but all can participate. We've updated the blog and logistics document so hopefully it's more clear. Thanks for pointing this out! :)

I'm sorry for some bugs with the problems, namely 11 on advanced (I cant spell the name), cooked fish hard, and teleport. Nonetheless I hope you enjoyed the round!
