Well, my team got third in region in the ICPC. There were four fairly easy problems and four very difficult problems in our set, so when they cloaked the scoreboard, we were in second place by time among the ten teams who had finished four (of forty total teams), but University of Alberta managed to squeak out one of the hard ones before the testing server went down with five minutes left. Congrats, guys.

I'm going to apply for an eligibility exception next year since I've done so few CS classes, but that's a whole year; I totally should have respawned at the beginning of the competition and known which problems to attack first. Life is such a poor substitute for Fable II.

my husband concurs with your last statement. That's pretty much what he's lived for the past week.

You should try it. It's easy and incredibly captivating.
