The final round of the IIOT (International Informatics Olympiads in Teams) is starting in two days, on March 25th 2022! The open contest will be 3 hours USACO-style, starting from 13:00 CET, and ending 27 hours after that. In the meanwhile, you can enjoy our teaser below and try to guess the next eight problems from the hints :)
This contest, of a lower difficulty level than the IOI, is intended for teams of 4 contestants from the same high school (check this post for further details). However, everyone is welcome to participate to the open contests!
If you want to participate, you must:
- Visit the contest website: https://mirror.squadre.olinfo.it/
- Click the link "register", fill out the form and then click on the register button and then "back to login"
- You can now log in with the same username and password you used to sign up
- If the login is successful you will be ready to participate, just wait for the contest to start! (and maybe save the page in your bookmarks, so that you can quickly get back to it when the contest begins)
- When the contest starts, you will see a red button. Click it when you want to start your 3 hour time window!
- The ranking for each contest will be available at https://mirror.squadre.olinfo.it/ranking/ after the start of each contest
- The tasks will also be available for training in https://training.olinfo.it/#/tasks/ few days after the contests
- Good luck and have fun!
We hope that you will join us or encourage your students to do so!

Are past rounds' scores hidden on purpose? Are they not counted in the final score? I'm asking about the mirror of course, so it doesn't really matter, except for the nice lead my team had ;)
Speaking of, even though only my name appears in the team's title, it actually consists of 4 participants (we rushed to start the first round and each of us created a separate account on accident, and because he who controls the zoom controls the team we all used the account I created — seemed to happen to a lot of teams), I would have credited them if I could find them on cf, but oh well...
