It's nice event. Thanks to organizers of this event for conducting such an event. And over all thanks to all participants to make this event interesting.
It was a lot harder than last year. But since some very skilled people participated this year, that was a good thing. There were some very interesting problems, and i look forward to learning how to solve them.
Last year, i submitted my last answer 50 seconds before the deadline (and correct) :) This year, 15 seconds after (probably correct) :(
Great competition. Although I would appreciate more problems based on own investigation, rather than finding sequence for small Ns with brute-force and get formula from Sloan's database. But still, great competition :) Thank you!
There was severe disruption at the times when a bonus problem became available or stopped being available. The site appeared to be coded to force a reload at these moments, and the answer submission form did not successfully reload for several minutes afterward.
Loved it.It was a great experience and trial round also helped a lot in understanding the event,so I request you to conduct a trial round for Manthan too so that we can get a feel of the event.
It's really nice as always.
I took part in this last year.
And this year it improved by the small data and bonus problem.
That makes the contest more surprising.
By the way, in this year, rng_58(Makoto Soejima) comes, and get the championship.
I'm waiting for the next year! :)
And there is some suggestions:
1. The time in this year was more bad for East Asia(0:30 - 05:30 for China, seems more bad for Japan), The last year was about 20:30 - 1:30 for China.
2. The problems were a little Monotonous, lots of them were solved by OEIS and QUAD.
Thanks. o(∩_∩)o
