What a tour! We hear people had fun, and that’s the main thing. Did you? :) Which agents did you use?

Highly recommend participating in the Midnight Code Cup contest. It's going to be a very unique experience, since the finals are 24h long and (AFAIK) it's the only onsite contest where using AI agents is not only allowed but highly encouraged.

If you've ever fantasized about participating in a contest, that's honestly your best bet. Those contests are designed to be weird and people who have done competitive programming for 10 years won't have any real advantage over you.

Some details:
- it's a team contest (3 people)
- qualifications are online (April 11, 4h online on codeforces)
- finals are in Belgrade, Serbia (July 4-5, 24h)
- organizers' write-up from previous edition: https://t.co/oB5jihFaZd
- more details: https://t.co/3NTemLiPsD

Last but not least, it's unclear how many such contests we're going to have, so don't miss your chance!

We did all kinds of weird things in the finals last year. Problem A let participants exchange their own mini puzzles. Here's one, offered by team :cat-gave-up: [pinely]. Choose the correct answer: 6, 7, 9, or 10?
