Novosibirsk SU#1 contest 1

Post by Dyatlov »

Hello,

my name is Semyon Dyatlov and I am a member of the Novosibirsk SU#1 team. We have just returned from Petrozavodsk Summer Training Camp in Russia and we were the problemsetters of one of the contests there. We now want to set this contest here, but we need support (including at least six members of Online Judge wishing to participate). Is there anybody wishing to participate in the contest?

Hi, Semyon!

I assure you there'll be not 6 members wishing to participate but several hundreds as usual :lol:

Anyway you can count me in!

Bye.
Andrey.

Good News that you guys are willing to hold a contest here.

As for the limitation of six, I think it is merely a formality if you arrange a public contest. Simply, give any six UVA ID, and set the contest option as public.
That way, everybody can join in anytime they want while the contest is running. They don't have to belong to the six member list you provide. :)

Just send the template of your contest and date and time you wish to arrange the contest at contest@acm.uva.es then we can decide if everything is compatible to UVa Online Judge.

Hello,
I've got some question to contest board administration about the contest template:
1. May I use several test inputs/outputs for a problem or I must make the problems use multiple input?
2. May the "specific judge" program use external modules provided by me?
3. May I send the first version of the contest template and then correct it?
4. What judge is used if there is no "specific judge" program?
5. Can I provide several solutions for a problem, as well as PDF and PS versions of the statements?
6. Can I use CSS in HTML problem statements? Do I have to provide HTML statements at all?

1. For every problem there must be only one input file and one output file. So time limit is on the whole file, not per test case. This is different from russian contests.

2. If your program needs specific judge program you can provide it. A specific judge program is needed only when more than one correct solution is possible or to ignore certain amount of precision error. Our contest page describes how to write special judge for UVa OJ. But if you don't understand send me what u have I will try to convert. But u must give be some time for that (I am very busy now with two RWU and Dhaka Regional).

3. Yes you can send the first version. U can send it personally at shahriar_manzoorATyahoo.com

4. Diff of Linux I think.

5. Yes u can.

6. You can use CSS and u must provide HTML and there is no good pdf to HTML converter in my knowledge.
