The next edition of Internet Problem Solving Contest is here!
In case you don't know (yet), IPSC problems come in a great variety, from standard algorithmic ones to problems where you interact with the grader or need to find a specific input.
Most problems have an easy input worth 1 point and hard input worth 2 points; otherwise, the scoring is ACM-like, with WAs on easy inputs giving time penalty 10 minutes instead of 20. The input files are available for download and you only upload your outputs (in a similar manner to GCJ, except there's no additional time limit).
It's a team competition for teams of three. IPSC 2015 takes place on 20th of June, from 11:00 UTC and lasts 5 hours. You may register here.
THE CONTEST STARTS IN 2 HOURS!
