I'm sadly announcing that [a2oj.com](https://a2oj.com/) ([A2 Online Judge](https://www.facebook.com/A2OnlineJudge/)) will be retiring by end of 2019, I'll shut it down at midnight on New Year's Eve. It was something I took care of for about 10 years.↵
↵
I'm really sorry, but I prefer not to explain my reasons, so please don't ask me why I'm doing this, it was hard enough for me to make this decision, and also please don't try to convince me to change my mind.↵
↵
I'd like to say thank you to everyone who used it, and please accept my sincere apologies for shutting it down.↵
↵
If you have something good to say about A2OJ (how you used it or how it helped you in any way), I'd love to read that, please send it to the following email (or in a comment here): bye@a2oj.com↵
