Hello Codeforces!

We continue to prepare for the MosCode Festival 2018 and remind you that the open qualifying contest will be held on February 11, 2018, at 11:00 (UTC +03).

The contest will use the tasks from the first division challenges of the Open Cup. In case a team does not participate in the Open Cup, fill in the form on the MosCode Festival page and it will be sent a login for participating in the qualifying contest with further instructions. Registration is open until 23:59 (UTC +03) February 10, 2018.

Please note that it is a 5-hour task and is conducted on the ACM ICPC system. This means that the team can use one computer.

Student teams who wish to practice in solving problems of ACM ICPC finals level are welcome to participate. So far contestants from universities of the US, Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Lithuania and Brazil confirmed their participation in MosCode Festival.

We kindly remind you that you can participate in the festival free of charge.

The event has scheduled lectures by our sponsors and partners, coffee-breaks, and of course, cookies!

And in case you are already tired of contests but still want to participate in this grand event we invite you to become one of the Volunteers of MosCode Festival!
