According to your link, the Coding phase starts at 2:30AM ICT, while the schedule in the applet arena states that it starts at 3:30AM ICT. Which one is correct?
Beside, who is eligible to compete in this round?
The start time will be somewhere between 2:30AM ICT and 3:30AM ICT.
This round is only for onsite people.
Why not create a parallel round for others for fun (so that probably few times more people will have fun)? Are problems going to be reused somewhere, are they publicly available?
Good suggestion, maybe we will try that.
No we will not reuse the problem. They are available now (you can try them in practice room).
