    Of course, Deep Dark Fantasy, they won in a local contest recently. If there is a gambling, I certainly will bet all on them. ;) I am going to update some information about the teams later.

        As far as I know YuukaKazami. You know you are fu$#%ed if the strongest member is the only one that hasn't won IOI.

        Now I joined it... Somehow I didn't log in CF for a long time and did not accept the invitation...

        It seems I have been away from algorithmic contest for 1 year and am the weakest member right now...

            It seems we win with 11 problems...

            jqdai0815 carried us... I only passed one problem.

              Congratulations!

              It's a bit crazy to hear that someone with your level is the weakest member right now. You are a ridiculously strong team.

              Good luck in the world finals!

      How does qualification work? I've seen that Deep Dark Fantasy already won a regional contest. Was that just to get access to this final?

        I don't know, no one know the actually rules this year except Dr. Hwang himself at this very moment, but I still think they must already get the ticket.

Uhm ... shouldn't it be "Chinese" ? I don't think "Chinal" is a correct word.

Wish the livestream would just show the screen of Deep Dark Fantasy, instead of just showing view of the room half the time, what a waste.

Nice H! In your blog, you said '09:21 : SJTU Absolute Weapon* solve problem H, they use a better solution than us.' Can you share with us how you and SJTU Absolute Weapon* solve H?

Was the judge server fast? In particular I'm wondering if the following are supposed to pass:

  • O(N2 logN) solution with set for C
  • O(Nlog2 N) solution with set for G
  • O(NlogN) suffix array for F

Also, was it necessary to use BigIntegers in E?

    All of the solutions you described can pass in the contest. It's necessary to use BigIntegers. And Python is supported in the contest.
