UPD: WE ARE FLYING TO THE IOI! Thanks to everyone who donated and all organizations that supported our journey! We got support for our international flights from several organizations and the raised money through the crowdfunding will go towards funding our domestic flights and IOI registration.

Hello Codeforces,

I, along with contee, is-this-dp, and 3omar_ahmed, am a member of Egypt's IOI 2025 team. For the past few years, the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology has supported the Egyptian IOI team to attend the competition. However, this year we are not receiving any institutional or government support.

We worked hard over the past year to get ready for the competition. The cost of attending the IOI for the Egyptian delegation, which includes our flight tickets, visa, and registration costs, is difficult for us to cover, especially given the current economic situation in Egypt. We have reached out to several companies to sponsor us but haven’t received any commitments yet, and as we approach the IOI, the flights are getting more and more expensive.

In an attempt to collect the money, we have launched a crowdfunding campaign.

Please donate here.

We appreciate any contribution you could make.

UPD: For Egyptians who are willing to donate, you can now donate through:

UPD 2: We have made a LinkedIn post

UPD 3: We have added a Binance wallet for countries that don’t support PayPal. Binance UID: 1045032113

These are my last few months in OI (and perhaps competitive programming), so I think it's time to admit:

I'm FerjaniSassi — the lowest highest Codeforces contributor around this time last year. I was also YoussefObama, his predecessor.

Spoiler

Ask me anything!

FAQ

Why did you do this?

I was inspired by Sparky_Master_WCH1226 and Polygons.

Why did you ping everyone?

The contribution leaderboard was dominated by 74TrAkToR and marzipan who were downvoted by all codeforces users, so the only way to beat them was to get downvoted by all codeforces users.

How did you ping everyone?

I have scraped the first few pages of the rating page using a simple JS script and made it write the blog.

Finally, to reiterate the wise words of FerjaniSassi: "We have never harrased anyone and have been passive and pacificst except at this instant because he deserved it". So please don't doxx me I am a peaceful person, and I have stopped working in the shitposting industry completely and dont plan to return.

To my fans who loved me, don't be sad. To the people who hate me, I have no relations to FerjaniSassi or any shitposting accounts anymore.

I have just reached Master and my handle became yellow :D, the next rank I should be aiming for now is International Master but unfortunately unlike Candidate Master and Master, it doesn't reward you with a color change to distinguish you from Masters and reward you on your effort which makes it useless. Since red is hard too so now I have to increase my rating by 300 points to receive a new color change which would take months :(.

That's why I'm making a petition to change the International Master color (to a slightly darker shade of orange for example?).

What do you think

I agree

I don't care

I disagree

Testdata doesn't satisfy the constraints mentioned in the problem statement, you can check yourself
