I have never given any contest on DMOJ, is it worth giving as a pupil or the problems will be way too hard?

    I think there would be multiple problems solvable by a pupil. Think of the contest more like a Div. 1 + 2, except there are fewer hard problems.

As a tester, I think this contest is great, and you should definitely participate.

As a newly enslaved YAC problem setter. I think this round is great, and wish all participants high rating.

    1. No need to register, just go to the contest page and hit Join.
    2. I don't remember seeing this, but there should be no need to update your profile? But if you want to, just solve Hello World or something.
    3. Just leave User-script blank.

As an unretired setter, I really hope that you will find the problems to be interesting and enigmatic! blobheart

Great contest, very interesting problems. Looking forward to understand why I couldn't solve a few of them.
