    Hey everyone! It's the day before the triway cup so I'll answer some FAQs and make some clarifications.

    The contest will be held on dmoj. The contests rules are as follows:

    • teams will be ranked first by problems solved, then by sum of submission times
    • there is NO incorrect submission penalty
    • Teams will each be given one paper copy of the problem statements.
    • important note: problems are NOT ordered by difficulty. Please read all problems.

    Maybe we should remove AQT from the authors list.

      But that means if there are any bad problems, we'll be forced to blame you instead of AQT. D:

    CLARIFICATION: In order for a team to be eligible for prizes, all members of the team must still be enrolled in high school or a lower level of education(middle school, etc).

        The reason they only distribute prizes for the live contest is to PREVENT CHEATING

        Don't think so. Only those participating in the live version are, iirc.

        Edit: Confirmed. The live contest will be the only version which will distribute prizes, as it is within a specified 3-hour time range. This is to prevent people from making alternate accounts to view and solve all of the problems, then submitting on a main. We highly encourage that you come to the live contest for prize eligibility.

    Also, if you stumble upon a good question it's probably imaxblue's if it's like, "tf is this", it's most likely AQT's :3

    Will this contest be hosted on DMOJ? If so, will non high school students be allowed to participate (not for prizes)?

      There will be an online mirror for those who wish to participate and are unable to go to the live event.
