Local terminal IOI addict/enthusiast here.

Last year, a grand total of 0 discussion blogs for the IOI appeared, and around 0 discussions on the tasks were made (despite possibly the most (comparatively) interesting problemset since....2016/2018 or something). For this year, I'd like to take matters into my own hands and open this blog.

Dump things here. Predictions. Links for live scoreboards. Writeup for tasks the way it have been for 20217/2019/2021 or something. Problemsetters coming out (not like that, I mean, the way Pajaraja did in 2021 (for Fountain Parks) or E869120 (for Prisoner Challenge)......or the at least 15 times people have done that. Still think that the lack of discussion of IOI2023 tasks was really sad — actually had to resort to shitty translated Luogu blogs for that.
